Chapter 583: No Way Back
Ye Xiuli was tied to the middle pillar of the altar, his mouth sealed with tape, and he looked very disheveled in his prison uniform, but he still stood there with his back straight and indifferent.
He looks like an old man, but he still has a tenacity, an unforgivable tenacity.
Who could have imagined that it was such an old man who was so cruel and ruthless that he stirred up trouble and even spared his own children.
There were many onlookers in the square where the altar was located. The chief judge standing next to Ye Xiuli on the stage read out the crimes he had committed according to the script prepared in advance. They were too numerous to list.
The anger of the onlookers was aroused and they shouted and cursed.
The Queen was quite trustworthy. She didn't mention anything except Princess Anna's background. She glossed over some sensitive matters before revealing everything else. This was enough to arouse public outrage, forcing Ye Xiuli to choose death as the only way to atone for his sins.
A raging flame burned on the altar. Ye Xiuli, who was in the middle of the flames, gradually became panicked from his initial calm and indifferent state, and began to struggle constantly.
Shen Weiyang calmed down from her initial nervousness, looked at Leng Huaijin and asked, "Have you dealt with the people who were going to rescue him?"
Leng Huaijin nodded: "What happened last night, I didn't tell you so that you could have a good rest. He is at the end of his rope and no one can save him."
Ye Xiuli's men were just at the end of their strength and wouldn't be in much danger, so Shen Weiyang didn't care why Leng Huaijin didn't tell her. Instead, she was touched by his thoughtfulness, which allowed her to have a good rest.
"Isa, are you really so heartless? Don't forget that there was a girl between us..."
"Bang--!"
After the tape on Ye Xiuli's mouth fell off due to the high temperature, he gathered all his strength and tried to threaten the Queen in the thick smoke of the sea of fire, hoping to buy himself a last chance to survive. However, Wu Bai shot him in the throat directly, and then only a struggling figure could be seen in the sea of fire, slowly returning to silence.
All sins came to an end here.
Although the lost person will never come back, he still has a warmer future and can continue to live a good life with his parents' love.
"Xiao Wu, I'll take you home."
Looking at Shen Weiyang who was holding his shoulders and comforting him, Wu Bai smiled with relief...
——
"What did you say? Say it again?"
In an ordinary small town, in an ordinary three-bedroom apartment, a seven-year-old boy (the time period in the beginning may be a little confusing, please be more tolerant if you are reading this book, and just assume that the child is seven years old now. The relationship line between Ajun and this couple will be a little special) looks at the indifferent girl standing in front of him with red eyes, and his red and moist eyes are gradually covered with frost.
He looks more and more like Leng Huaijin. Originally, his temperament was closer to Shen Weiyang, but now after being tempered in the dark night, his temperament is getting closer and closer to Leng Huaijin.
Especially when he was angry, it reminded Leng Yuan of how angry Leng Huaijin was when she was throwing a tantrum and smashing things in the room.
But Leng Jun is still young after all, and his aura is far inferior to that of his father.
What's more, he is his younger brother.
So Leng Yuan hesitated for only a few seconds before calmly repeating what he had just said: "I said, I'm not going back. When you go back this time, just tell Mom and Dad that I'm dead. I believe you've learned a lot in the Dark Night for so long. It shouldn't be a problem to fake my death for me."
"Leng Yuan, do you know what you're saying?" Leng Jun clenched his hands, his body trembling with extreme anger. "I've been looking for you for so long, and you say this to me? Do you know how I've been going through these days? I get scared awake even in my dreams, afraid that something might happen to you and I'd never find you again!"
"You've been in the Dark Night for so long, yet you're still so timid, Jun? How can you take care of the Leng family and share Dad's worries in the future?" Leng Yuan frowned slightly, looking a little dissatisfied with his character.
Yu Zhi, who was standing behind Leng Jun and was the same age as them, couldn't bear to watch any more and couldn't help but say, "Miss, the young master is doing this because he's worried about you, not because he's timid. You haven't been heard from in a while, and he's worried that something might have happened to you."
Leng Yuan's indifference was chilling: "But I'm fine now, what's there to worry about?"
"Ajun, I don't want to go back. Just tell me whether you will help me or not. Don't play the emotional card with me. I won't be fooled."
"Fooled?" Leng Jun's eyes flickered with hurt, and then only anger remained. "Leng Yuan, don't be ungrateful! I have no obligation to do anything for you."
It is true that she is the eldest daughter of the Leng family, but he is also the eldest son of the Leng family.
She is noble, so isn't he noble too?
Why should he be so servile and subservient to this ungrateful little girl after he had worked so hard to find her?
"Yu Zhi, call Uncle Wei Ze and tell him that the young lady has been found. Send someone to bring her home."
After giving Yu Zhi his orders coldly, he suppressed his anger and glared at Leng Yuan.
"I don't know what's wrong with you. If you have any problem, go back and tell Mom and Dad. I can't make decisions for you."
"Yu Zhi, stop!" Leng Yuan immediately stopped Yu Zhi when she saw him leaving his room to call Wei Ze. She then grabbed a fruit knife that she had prepared long ago and placed it across her neck, staring at Leng Jun. "Leng Jun, if you don't listen to me, I'm going to commit suicide right now to prove that I'm dead."
Leng Jun's eyelids twitched, and the hand that subconsciously reached out to grab the knife froze in mid-air because of her close proximity.
"Leng Yuan, what are you doing? Mom has been waiting for you to come back. Do you know how sad they will be if you do this?"
He looked at her anxiously and angrily.
"Put down the knife. Give me a legitimate reason. If I think it's okay, I'll agree to it, but you have to put down the knife first."
Leng Yuan is not as willful and mischievous as Yi Yi. If she holds a knife and says she wants to commit suicide, Leng Jun will definitely not think that she is trying to scare him. She will definitely hurt herself on impulse.
His voice was trembling as he said this: "A Yuan, please calm down, I know I was wrong, I should have talked to you properly, please put the knife down first, and we can discuss it properly."
She is not a willful child. She may have real reasons for being like this suddenly.
He shouldn't be angry. He should ask clearly first and then find a way to solve the problem with her.
