Chapter 146 You should live well and take revenge on me
Jiang Chengli was brought to court before he had fully recovered. Even though his mother said she would not pursue the matter, he had committed premeditated murder and caused death, so his mother's words could not absolve him of responsibility. Jiang Chengli was ultimately sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of his political rights for life.
Zhou Yue was implicated by Jiang Chengli as an accomplice, and she did not deny it herself. She was sentenced to twenty years in prison.
On the day of the trial, Zhou Mu also attended. She and Fei Fei sat in the audience, quietly bringing an end to their absurd lives of the past twenty-odd years.
When Jiang Chengli was taken away, he didn't look at anyone, but shouted to Jiang Zhenzhu, "Take your grandma home!"
When it was Zhou Yue's turn, she simply said to Zhou Mu from afar, "I'm sorry."
With everything settled, Yan Songyu exhaled a breath of stale air: "I should feel relieved to have let go of everything, but why do I feel so empty?"
She spent so much time and energy seeking revenge, and even hurt Mumu in the process, but now that she has achieved her goal, she doesn't seem as happy as she imagined.
Feng Yu held Yan Songyu's hand and said, "Revenge has occupied half of your life right now. You just haven't completely let go of it yet. It will be fine in a while."
"Hmm." Yan Songyu nodded, then noticed Zhou Mu beside Feifei. "Mu Mu's matter also needs to be resolved as soon as possible."
"I actually have different thoughts about Zhou Mu's matter." Feng Yu hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his opinion.
Yan Songyu was surprised for a moment, "Go on."
"There are only two directions in this matter: divorce or not. I know that you and Zhou Mu are both inclined to divorce, but I think that not divorcing is also not a bad thing."
Seeing that Yan Songyu frowned and was about to refute him, he quickly said, "Song Lifan will definitely be sent in. He has a murder on his hands and won't be able to get out."
"If we manipulate things a little further and make Song Lifan and his father and brother fight to the death, then Zhou Mu can completely inherit the Song Group as Song Lifan's spouse. Song Lifan has caused Zhou Mu so much harm and made her a second-time bride for no reason. Shouldn't Zhou Mu be given some compensation?"
"The Song Group is pretty good. Even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse. Whether she wants to sell it or file for bankruptcy, Zhou Mu's future is secure."
Yan Songyu considered the possibility of this suggestion. It was not bad, but she was afraid that Mu Mu would not agree, after all, the title of Song Lifan's wife was disgusting.
Feng Yu added, "Zhou Mu won't accept your money, but the Song Group is what she deserves. This way, she can avoid many detours in the future. She will definitely feel resentful, but it can't compare to the real benefits."
Yan Songyu remained silent for a long time before nodding, "Then I'll go talk to Mumu. I haven't submitted the evidence of Song Lifan's murder of his wife yet, but Mumu's wishes should still be the priority."
"Of course, I'm just making this suggestion; the final decision rests with her."
He simply wanted to help Yan Songyu solve her problem.
After Yan Songyu finished speaking, fearing that Zhou Mu was too emotional, she wanted to analyze the pros and cons with her, but to her surprise, Zhou Mu nodded.
"Are you sure, Mumu? Did you really understand what I just said?" Yan Songyu asked uncertainly.
Zhou Mu nodded again. How could she not be sure? She wasn't stupid. After living a difficult life for more than twenty years, she couldn't be aloof.
The reason she kept refusing Yan Songyu's financial help was because she knew that once these things were involved, her relationship with Feifei would change, and she didn't want to tarnish that friendship.
"Okay, since you've agreed, Mom will definitely hand over the Song Group to you!"
Yan Songyu burst into tears of joy. The fact that Zhou Mu agreed to her suggestion meant that her condition was improving, and she was no longer as listless and lifeless as before.
The psychologist also said that the patient is slowly recovering, and Zhou Mu is becoming more and more cooperative with her treatment.
Yan Songyu pretended to force Song Lifan to divorce Zhou Mu, but in reality, he revealed to them that he had killed his stepmother's unborn child and sterilized Song's father. As a result, Song Lifan immediately had no time to bother Zhou Mu.
As expected, Song's father exploded, luring Song Lifan home and beating him so badly he nearly killed him. While Song Lifan was hospitalized, he tried to give everything in the Song Group and the Song family to his illegitimate son, the child born to the woman Feng Yu had saved.
Song Lifan woke up just in time when his stepmother tried to smother him to death, which alerted the on-duty doctor and saved his life.
Upon waking up, Song Lifan took revenge on his father and stepmother. He reported his father to the police and imprisoned him, and he tortured and murdered his stepmother and disposed of her body. The entire Song family fell into Song Lifan's hands.
Seeing that things were not going well, the illegitimate son fled the country with his mother, taking the money he had swindled from Song's father over the years.
At this point, Yan Songyu handed over the evidence he had collected of Song Lifan's murder for money. As a result, Song Lifan and his father went together and were arranged to share a room.
Everything went unexpectedly smoothly. Song Lifan was beaten to death in prison by his father before he even lasted a month. Zhou Mu, as Song Lifan's spouse, inherited the Song Group and all his assets.
Even though the Song Group's market value evaporated due to internal strife and the successive imprisonments of its leaders, it was still worth tens of billions when Zhou Mu took over.
She did not keep the Song Group, but sold it to Yan Songyu and Feng Yu at market price.
Afterwards, with Feifei's support, Zhou Mu began to cooperate with the psychologist's treatment, and his depression gradually improved, although he was still unable to speak.
She spoke for the first time after accidentally injuring Yan Songyu, when she uttered "I'm sorry."
Zhou Mu, whose condition had been improving, suddenly relapsed after seeing the suicide note Zhou Yue gave her. She attempted suicide again, but Yan Songyu discovered her and grabbed the scissors that were aimed at her heart. The force was so great that the scissors pierced through Yan Songyu's right hand.
Zhou Mu was stunned, but Yan Songyu ignored her injured hand and just held Zhou Mu tightly. "Mu Mu, you still have a bright future ahead of you. You shouldn't end your life like this. We are the ones who made mistakes. Zhou Yue and Jiang Chengli got the ending they deserved. You should live well and repay me instead of giving up on yourself."
Feifei was drawn by the noise and initially thought something had happened to Mumu, but it turned out to be Yan Songyu. She anxiously called Feng Yu to take Yan Songyu to the hospital. Her gaze towards Zhou Mu was complicated. She knew that Zhou Mu was sick and it wasn't her fault, but it was her beloved mother who was hurt!
"Yes, I'm sorry!"
Zhou Mu's long-absent voice rang out, and Feifei looked at her in disbelief, "Mu Mu, you're... better?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I didn't mean to hurt Aunt Yan."
Having not spoken for a while, Zhou Mu's voice was a little hoarse, and his tone of voice was somewhat strange.
At a time when she should have been happy, Feifei couldn't smile. In the end, she could only manage an awkward smile. "Let's go to the hospital first. You can tell Mom what you want to say yourself."
