Xu Wan vaguely recalled that Ling Ya had said that Jiang De'an's mother had died when he was first brought back. He was a six or seven-year-old child who couldn't even speak.
One can only imagine what he went through.
Jiang De'an continued, "Others have forgotten most of what happened when they were little, but I'm different. I remember almost everything, from who stomped on my steamed bun before giving it to me to who threw stones at me. Over the past few years, I've found them all..."
Xu Wan looked at him with some fear.
Jiang De'an laughed and said, "Of course, it took some time and effort, but we did find everything."
Xu Wan's dizziness and headache did not improve.
But when faced with the will to survive, it becomes less unbearable.
Xu Wan struggled to lift her head and said to Jiang De'an, "I understand you. My childhood was the same as yours. My father was an alcoholic and a gambler. He would take all the money in the house to gamble. When he won, he would drink with his friends. When he lost, he would come back and beat me and my mother."
“I know.” Jiang De’an looked at Xu Wan. “So I think your mother did the right thing. People like that deserve to die, don’t they?”
Jiang De'an clearly has dimples and doesn't look aggressive at all.
Xu Wan already knew his true nature, and the dim lighting made the man's expression look particularly eerie.
Xu Wan followed his words and said, "Yes, the law will naturally punish these people."
"The law?" Jiang De'an looked at Xu Wan. "If the law would punish someone like your father, would your mother need to kill him?"
The man's words left Xu Wan speechless.
Yes, my mother has called the police before.
My father would always sincerely apologize in front of the police, but he would then repeat the same mistakes.
It seems that people of my mother's generation did not receive education about divorce.
In her view, marriage means being together for life; once two people are married, they can never be separated again.
That's why they'll go down the wrong path.
"My mother, she just..."
"No one will punish those who make mistakes. My shameless mother died young, but she didn't suffer much when she died. And my cheating father? He died peacefully in his sleep. Who will punish them? No one will punish them!"
Jiang De'an became more and more excited as he spoke.
But he quickly calmed down, looked at Xu Wan, and asked, "Do you think there are souls in this world?"
"No."
Xu Wan answered very quickly.
“I think so. I think that old man’s soul is still alive, and I’m going to make him see his proud son and proud grandson come to their deaths soon.”
Jiang De'an's voice wasn't loud, but his expression had already become somewhat distorted.
Xu Wan's head throbbed with pain, and she gritted her teeth to endure the pain, barely able to speak.
Seeing her pained expression, Jiang De'an said, "Actually, you shouldn't have died. I never expected Xiao Zhou to be so lucky. When I found out that Ryan was Jiang Tingzhou, I had already figured out what to do next. Unfortunately, you came too fast."
Despite the pain, Xu Wan spoke in a conciliatory tone, "I didn't know you did this."
Before Jiang De'an could answer, the sound of a car engine could be heard outside.
Because the night was so quiet, the engine sounds, though far away, were hard to miss.
It's not hard to tell that there was more than one car coming from outside.
Soon, footsteps could be heard. Although the sound was not loud, it was so quiet that it was almost impossible to ignore.
Just then, Jiang Tingzhou slowly stood up, opened the door a little, and shouted outside, "You don't need to hide anymore, the person is here with me, strapped with explosives, and the remote control is with me. If you come over, we'll all die together."
The surrounding sounds instantly and in unison ceased.
Immediately, someone outside spoke up: "Mr. Jiang De'an, I am a negotiation expert from the police station. You can state your demands."
Jiang De'an turned to Xu Wan and asked, "Who do you want to see?"
