Chapter 338 Not understanding where the mistake was

Han Xi looked at the pitiful person kneeling in front of him, feeling nothing but resentment and no pity whatsoever.

Based on what Shen Mingzhu did, even cutting her into a thousand pieces wouldn't erase the hatred in her heart.

Han Xi said coldly, "I will not forgive you, and you no longer have that chance."

Shen Mingzhu explained in a panic, "Sister-in-law, Bo Siye instigated the incident of hitting my brother with the car. I never wanted to hurt my family. It's all his fault."

*Smack!*

As soon as she finished speaking, Han Xi slapped her without hesitation.

No matter how many bad things Bo Siyue said behind her back, she was the one who hit someone with her car, and even now, she still doesn't understand where she went wrong.

Do you know where you went wrong?

Having been hit, Shen Mingzhu didn't dare to speak rashly. She only felt that Han Xi looked terrifying now, as if he was about to devour her.

Han Xi grabbed her arm and shook it violently.

"Tell me quickly, what exactly did you do wrong? If you say you did something wrong, I'll keep hitting you."

"No, sister-in-law, I really know I was wrong. I shouldn't have listened to others and hurt my own family. It was my fault."

Han Xi shook his head, clearly dissatisfied with her answer.

Seeing that she was about to raise her hand again, Shen Mingzhu quickly said, "It was me who didn't consider family ties and was selfish, only thinking of myself. Regardless of whether Yiming's death was related to my brother or not, I shouldn't have harmed him."

Upon hearing this, Han Xi's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and Shen Mingzhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing she had guessed correctly, continuing her performance.

“Give me another chance, but I still acted impulsively and hurt him. I have been remorseful these past few days. I will spend the rest of my life atoning for my sins. Please give me a chance, sister-in-law.”

Han Xi sighed, stood up, and turned around. Just when Shen Mingzhu thought she would give up, Han Xi suddenly turned back and glared at her fiercely, which made her tremble.

She had always looked down on Han Xi in the past, but she never expected that one day she would be frightened by this woman's eyes.

She stammered, "Sister-in-law... I know you hate me, and I'll accept whatever punishment you give me, but I'm pregnant right now. Could you please be lenient?"

Han Xi's gaze shifted to her stomach, and the moment she lifted her eyelids, it felt as if countless knives were stabbing at her, making Shen Mingzhu tremble with fear.

"Don't worry, of course I won't kill you, but I won't let you get away with it."

Shen Mingzhu pleaded, "Sister-in-law, could you please let me see my mother? I want to repent in person."

Even now, she still wants to curry favor with Madam Chen. Han Xi nodded and chuckled, "Of course you can."

She then looked at Leng Yu and said, "Go and inform your aunt that we are taking Shen Mingzhu to the hospital now. Tell her to come over when she has time, so that the mother and daughter can have a reunion."

Why did these words send chills down her spine when they came from Han Xi's mouth?

Shen Mingzhu knew that the only person she could hold onto now was Madam Shen. As long as Madam Shen stood by her side, she would still have a chance.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Shen Mingzhu stood at the door of the ward, too afraid to go in. Han Xi angrily rebuked her, "What's wrong? Are you too scared to go in and face the consequences? You should at least have the courage to take responsibility for your actions."

Even though Han Xi had put it so clearly, Shen Mingzhu was still backing down. She took a deep breath, looked around, and asked, "Hasn't my mother arrived yet?"

Han Xi crossed his arms and sized her up, waiting to see what she would do next.

Shen Mingzhu gave an awkward smile and explained, "Sister-in-law, I was just too nervous. I made so many mistakes, my brother will definitely scold me."

"So what if he insults you? He didn't stab you with a knife, did he even try to hurt you?"

Han Xi's words were sharp and full of hatred. Thinking of Shen Jiheng's situation at the time, she had the idea of ​​tearing Shen Mingzhu apart.

She's now worried about being scolded; she's heartless.

"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to wait for Mom to go in together."

Han Xi smirked and said coldly, "Do you think your aunt will protect you after she arrives? You're really overthinking it."

After saying that, Han Xi pushed her inside. The people in the ward had already heard the commotion outside and were sitting on the bed with serious expressions, waiting for her to come in.

Shen Mingzhu looked at her usually imposing older brother, whose face was now pale and whose head was wrapped in thick gauze. His eyes, staring at her, seemed to be able to pull out her bones and tendons, which frightened her so much that she knelt down on the ground.

Given the current situation, she can't think of a better way than kneeling down to beg for forgiveness.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I deserve to die, I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have treated you like this."

As she spoke, Shen Mingzhu slapped herself twice, trying to quell Shen Jiheng's resentment.

Shen Jiheng calmly said, "When you hit me with your car, you floored the accelerator without the slightest hesitation. If we hadn't been further away, I would have been dead long ago."

"I was deceived by that bastard Bo Siyue. I didn't mean to hurt you. Brother, please forgive me this time. I really know I was wrong."

Shen Mingzhu knelt down in front of him, pitifully grabbed his hand, and continued to persuade him: "I will listen to whatever you say from now on. After this incident, I have really realized my mistakes and I will never make them again."

Shen Jiheng's gaze sharpened, and he shook off her hand. From the moment she made her move, there was no chance left.

"Your confessions will remain in prison for you to reflect upon in private."

Shen Mingzhu shook her head excitedly: "No, I don't want to go to jail, brother, please forgive me this time."

"How dare you ask for forgiveness!" Madam Shen shouted angrily from the doorway.

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Shen Mingzhu felt as if she had seen a lifeline and immediately stood up and ran towards her.

Just as she reached Madam Shen, a loud slap landed on her face, stunning Shen Mingzhu.

The ward fell into a deathly silence. Madam Shen said with a heavy heart, "How could I have given birth to such a vicious daughter? You murdered your own brother, stole company secrets and gave them to others, and falsified accounts to embezzle the branch company's finances."

Shen Mingzhu stood there, stunned, unable to refute.

Madam Shen pressed forward step by step, gritting her teeth as she said, "You have been doing evil from the very beginning, and you still show no remorse. Do you think I can let you go with just a few words? Do you think I will give you another chance just because you are my daughter?"

If Madam Shen were to forgive and forget, that would be cruel to Shen Jiheng.

He is still in the hospital, having narrowly escaped death, and will suffer from many long-term aftereffects.

She caused all the misfortune; she has no right to beg for forgiveness.

Shen Mingzhu cried, "Mom, I know I was wrong, and I realize my mistake. I don't want to go to jail. You can punish me however you want from now on, just don't send me in, okay?"

Madam Shen remained unmoved with a stern face, glaring at her and saying, "No, you should take responsibility for your actions."

Shen Jiheng said, "I called the police on your way here, and they are on their way. Only if you sincerely repent in prison can you start anew."

Shen Mingzhu shook her head abruptly and stepped back, stroking her belly sadly as she said, "Mom, brother, you can't be so heartless. Do you want my child to be born in prison?"
