Chapter 522 I Recorded
Chen Zhichu is very good at enduring pain, so much so that people tend to overlook the fact that she is the one who fears pain the most.
Many times, Shen Zhichu was in so much pain that she didn't even utter a sound. Was she really that patient? No...it was because she was already dying of pain.
He can force someone to bite and won't let go even if it means dirtying his own mouth. You can imagine how ruthless Li Jingshen is in forcing people.
A person who is good at enduring pain will even feel disappointed silently.
Shen Zhichu has learned to keep her emotions under control, but that doesn't mean she is a piece of wood and won't get angry.
Shen Zhichu now had no feelings for Li Jingshen at all. She had dispelled her hatred before, but now it came back and she was instantly disgusted again.
She still thought that Li Jingshen had changed, but in fact he was still the same person who went back on his word, was untrustworthy, capricious, and fickle. These bad habits had long been ingrained in his bones.
Shen Zhichu glanced at his phone and felt a little sorry for the phone bill.
But he still couldn't help but scold Li Jingshen: "Li Jingshen, education is a good thing. I hope you can have it."
In his previous life, Li Jingshen was probably not a human being, but an octopus. He not only liked to have his feet in two boats, but also liked to have one foot sideways.
"I really don't have any upbringing. After all, my parents died early and there was no one to teach me."
"Just because no one taught you, does that mean you can hurt others? Should others pay for your immorality?"
Shen Zhichu could imagine Li Jingshen's shameless look, with an indifferent smile on his lips and a deep look in his eyes.
Shen Zhichu clenched his fists, suppressing his anger.
Li Jingshen said: "Let's meet."
Chen Zhichu took a deep breath. "Li Jingshen, can we please not waste time like this? Don't you just want to see me make the same mistake again, to be abandoned and become your caged bird again? But not this time. Bai Qiujing didn't give up on me. Even the household registration booklet we went to register was given to us by his mother. It's already like this... what else do you want to prove?"
The phone fell into silence. Shen Zhichu waited for a while but didn't hear any sound. She thought the other party had hung up. She put it down and saw that the call was still going on, but there was no sound from Li Jingshen's end.
Shen Zhichu said: "I have died once, and a good horse never turns back. Do you think I will pick up things from the trash can again?"
Li Jingshen said: "It will be better if we are together..."
Shen Zhichu was amused by his arrogance, and didn't know how thick his skin was to say such a thing.
"Good?" Chen Zhichu asked back, "What do you consider good? Is it to destroy my family, or to treat me like an animal and have children? Or to continue hypnotizing me and turn me into a clueless fool for your entertainment?"
"Li Jingshen, do you remember the day we went to get our marriage certificate? You said with your own mouth that you would never fall in love with me in this life. You threw the marriage certificate into a mud puddle on the side of the road and casually bought a 30-yuan single ring from a roadside stall and threw it to me. There was no love between us, not even material things. It was so cheap, and there's no going back now that it's gone."
Shen Zhichu's voice was very calm. She paused and heard the breathing on the phone become faster and heavier, but still did not answer.
Shen Zhichu asked calmly: "Li Jingshen, do you like me or are you used to me? In the three years after my death, did you suddenly feel that I was quite comfortable serving you when I was alive?"
This time, Li Jingshen finally couldn't hold back, and he retorted: "I love you... Chen Zhichu, I love you as much as you love Bai Qiujing. I asked you to give up Bai Qiujing, but you didn't want to, so how can you let me let go of you?"
"Fuck your love for me! Li Jingshen, grab your heart and think about it, is that love for me? Count on your own hands and think about how many times you have abused me? How many times have you slapped me? Bai Qiujing has never touched me once. Even if he misunderstood that I tricked him into using him as a substitute, he pulled out my teeth instead of pointing his palm at me. This is the difference between him and you!"
The only person who could force Shen Zhichu to swear was probably Li Jingshen.
Shen Zhichu took a breath. Her chest ached, and her throat also hurt. She spoke in a hoarse voice: "You haven't woken up yet. Whether I'm dead or not, you won't feel sorry for me at all."
There was no sound on the phone again.
Chen Zhichu seemed to be talking to the air, muttering to himself and laughing, "Li Jingshen, you were the one I would never turn back to even if I hit a wall. Considering how much I loved you, I cooked for you for more than 1,300 days and drew blood from your beloved no less than 50 times. Can you please let me go?"
She and Li Jingshen have known each other for so many years, and during the five years of their marriage, there was love first and then hate. It's true that there is not a bit of affection between them. Even if it's not love, even a dog can still be fed some feelings.
Unfortunately, after the Shen family was gone, she really hated him too much. One cannot be a mean person all his life.
"Cough cough cough..." Li Jingshen's rapid coughing sound came from the phone.
After hearing what Shen Zhichu said, Li Jingshen's breath was choked and he almost couldn't breathe. His chest hurt so much that his lungs seemed to have cracked and bloody flesh could be torn out with just a pull of his hands.
“Chen Zhichu, if I say I’m dying, will you come to accompany me?”
"Should I send you a wreath to accompany you? You are so self-righteous. Didn't I give you too much confidence back then?"
Li Jingshen is dying? Eight out of ten words coming out of his mouth are false and cannot be taken seriously. Besides, even if he is really going to die, what does it matter?
As expected, things change in this world. Shen Zhichu felt very familiar with what Li Jingshen said, because she had said the same thing to Li Jingshen before.
But what did Li Jingshen do? He scolded her and asked if she was mentally ill. He also locked her in the bedroom for four days without leaving. There was nothing in the room. She could only drink tap water to quench her thirst and chew toilet paper when she was hungry.
Li Jingshen's knuckles were clenched until they turned pale, his pupils dim. "If you want me to let the Bai family go, then come and see me. You should know the situation of the Bai family since you follow Bai Qiujing every day. It's shaky and will fall without my help. I'm not the only one who wants to see the Bai family fall. Bankruptcy is actually a small matter, but you know how dirty this circle is. Framing others is normal, so guess... Have any contraband appeared in the Bai family's recent shipments? Some things can lead to jail time or even a shooting."
Shen Zhichu's scalp was numb. She picked up the cold water on the table and drank two sips before she managed to stay calm.
She analyzed Li Jingshen's words one by one, and it was entirely possible for Li Jingshen to do such a frame-up.
No one knows Li Jingshen better than her, but in the business world, Li Jingshen never does business at a loss.
But this time, in order to crush the Bai family, he killed 800 enemies and lost 1,000 of his own men. It was an obvious loss, and it can be said that he sacrificed the entire Li family.
If Lu Tingchuan had not died and he had taken over the Li family business, he might be the one who would be bankrupt now.
Being so careless is actually not like Li Jingshen's style, and... Li Jingshen is playing such a big game. Even if the Bai family goes bankrupt and he acquires it, it will be a mess and he won't be able to make back his investment. Won't the other shareholders of the Li family say anything?
So, why did Li Jingshen do this?
Shen Zhichu said: "Do you really want to tear your face apart?"
Li Jingshen said: "It's just a common business tactic."
What a common tactic. Shen Zhichu was silent for a while, and sneered: "I am married now, so what if you meet me."
"It's not like you can't get divorced after getting married. Haven't we been divorced before?"
"Then if I meet you, will you let the Bai family go? And regarding the frame-up you just mentioned, can you also take back the contraband that was added into it?" Shen Zhichu asked.
Li Jingshen said "hmm".
"You're really amazing. You can even get your hands on contraband. In order to frame someone, aren't you afraid of getting your hands dirty?"
"Who standing here doesn't have dirty hands? Shen Zhichu, you should know better than me."
Shen Zhichu couldn't help but applaud him: "That's right. After all, you used the same method to make the Shen Group in Rongcheng disappear, so using the same method to deal with the Bai Group is nothing."
Li Jingshen said: "Money makes the world go round."
There had always been a sneer in Shen Zhichu's voice when he spoke, but this time he couldn't help but laugh out loud with a sense of satisfaction.
Li Jingshen's voice was slightly hoarse: "What are you laughing at?"
Shen Zhichu stopped laughing, she paused and said: "I recorded it."
