"Thank you for your kind words." Boss Chang clinked his glass with his and said with a smile, "I heard in prison that Mr. Zhaoli's new book is selling very well, and many people are waiting for the reprint. As soon as my shop reopens, I will go and get it."

After dinner, Boss Chang said goodbye to the two and headed towards the bookstore.

Qin Zhao took Jing Li back.

On the way home, I happened to pass by the Ji family's shop. The silk shop that used to be prosperous was now deserted, and passers-by would take a detour to avoid it when they saw it from a distance.

Ji Zhifei's affairs have spread throughout the capital city in the past few days, and the reputation of the Ji family has been severely damaged.

I heard that Mr. Ji fell ill on the day Ji Zhifei was imprisoned. The Ji family, which was once wealthy, no one knows what to do in the future.

Jing Li looked at the deserted silk shop, feeling a little dazed.

Qin Zhao asked him, "What are you thinking about?"

"It's okay." Jing Li lowered his head and whispered, "I always thought that finding out the truth and bringing the real culprit to justice should be a very happy thing. But I don't know why... I just can't feel happy."

"Because the dead cannot be resurrected." Qin Zhao said, "Whether it's revenge or justice, only life has meaning."

Jing Li remained silent.

"But your efforts are not in vain." Qin Zhao squeezed Jing Li's hand and said gently, "Think about it, if you hadn't intervened this time, how could Boss Chang have left the government office alive? You saved a life, don't let your imagination run wild."

"Yeah." Jing Li responded softly.

Jing Li understood these principles, but this was the first time he had faced such a thing directly, and the first time he had directly experienced the injustice of this world towards ordinary people. This shock was even more disorienting than reading about it in historical books.

Jing Li took a breath silently and suppressed some emotions in his heart.

"Qin Zhao, I think I understand why you're so determined to go to the capital." Jing Li suddenly said before entering the door, "In this world, if people don't learn to move forward, they can only choose to endure the bullying silently, right?"

Qin Zhao paused.

Jing Li tilted his head to look at the tall, thin man beside him and blinked: "So, in order to not be bullied, we have to work harder."

Qin Zhao laughed: "You are right."

"In order not to be bullied, we have to work harder, that's it."

.

Ji Zhifei's murder case caused a sensation in the capital. Not long after, the government posted a notice that the real murderer would be executed in the autumn, while Ji Zhifei, who had confessed his guilt, was sentenced to hard labor and saved his life.

A few days later, the master of the Ji family resigned from Gu Changzhou due to health reasons, sold all the shops of the Ji family, and never did business again.

The Ji family, once so prosperous in the capital city, gradually disappeared.

As for Mr. Chang, he reopened the bookstore as promised and reprinted the first and second volumes of "Dream Talk Notes". However, this time, readers were surprised to find that the cover of "Dream Talk Notes" was different from the past.

On the light blue cover, the title of the book is no longer simply printed, but replaced with beautiful calligraphy.

The handwriting is smooth and vigorous.

Most readers are connoisseurs of books and were attracted by the handwriting of the book title at first sight. For a time, the sales of the storybook increased several times.

For a long time, the people in the streets and alleys of the city were discussing which master wrote the few words on the cover of the book "Dream Talk Notes" and whether it was Mr. Zhaoli.
