As the smoke of the mysterious organization's demise lingered, the entire city was immersed in a sense of survival. And Jiang Yao, a woman once blinded by jealousy and madness, finally met the end she deserved.
With solid evidence in hand, the police quickly launched an arrest operation against Jiang Yao. That day, when the police knocked on the door of Jiang Yao's hiding place, a flicker of panic crossed her face, but it quickly gave way to a near-numb expression. She seemed to have anticipated this day, though perhaps a lingering resentment lingered deep within her.
Jiang Yao was taken to the police station. The light in the interrogation room shone coldly on her face, revealing her pale and haggard features. Her eyes, once filled with jealousy and resentment, now became empty and lifeless, as if her soul had been completely drained away by this series of events.
The police officer sat across from her and began questioning her with a serious expression, "Jiang Yao, you are suspected of multiple attempted murders and collusion with a mysterious organization, among other serious crimes. Now you must truthfully confess everything you have done."
Jiang Yao was silent for a long time, her lips trembling slightly, as if she wanted to say something but found it difficult to speak. Finally, she slowly opened her mouth, her voice low and hoarse: "I... I just love Shen Qingchen too much. I don't want to see him and Jiang Zhi together. I can't control myself..."
The police officer snorted coldly, "Love? Is your behavior love? To satisfy your own selfish desires, you didn't hesitate to hurt others and even colluded with an evil organization. This is an unforgivable crime."
Jiang Yao's eyes flashed with panic. She lowered her head and began to recount her dealings with the mysterious organization. She recounted everything from how she first met its members, to how she orchestrated the assassinations against Jiang Zhi, to the details of how she obtained the poison from the mysterious organization and carried it out. With each sentence, her voice trembled more violently, as if she were filled with fear and regret for her actions.
In court, Jiang Yao was brought to the dock. She wore a simple prison uniform, her hair draped messily over her shoulders, a stark contrast to the once glamorous woman who had been obsessed with robbing others of their happiness. The courtroom was packed with people: the victim's family, media reporters, and concerned citizens. Their gazes were fixed on Jiang Yao, filled with anger and condemnation.
Jiang Zhi sat in the audience, her eyes fixed on Jiang Yao. She felt no pity, only deep disgust and hatred for this woman. Recalling everything Jiang Yao had done to her and her family, Jiang Zhi unconsciously clenched her fists. She knew today was the day justice would prevail, and Jiang Yao would pay a heavy price for her crimes.
Shen Qingchen sat beside Jiang Zhi, his face equally stern and furious. Looking at Jiang Yao, he felt a mixture of emotions. Jiang Yao had once been an acquaintance in his life, but he had never imagined she would become so mad and evil out of jealousy. He was secretly thankful that Jiang Zhi and the children were safe, and that Jiang Yao would soon face legal action, no longer threatening their lives.
The prosecutor stood up and began to read the indictment, listing Jiang Yao's crimes one by one, each one abhorrent. Jiang Yao stood in the dock, her body trembling slightly, her eyes wandering, not daring to meet the others' gaze. When the judge asked if she pleaded guilty, she hesitated for a moment, then finally said softly, "I plead guilty..."
During the courtroom debate, Jiang Yao's lawyer attempted to defend her, claiming that she had been driven to crime by emotional distress and pleading for a lighter sentence. However, the prosecutor righteously retorted, "Emotions cannot be an excuse for crime. Jiang Yao's actions seriously endangered the lives of others and social stability, and she must be severely punished."
After a lengthy trial, the judge finally struck the gavel and announced the verdict: "Jiang Yao, for multiple crimes, including attempted murder and collusion with a terrorist organization, the circumstances are egregious and pose a grave threat to society. She is sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of her political rights for life..."
After hearing the verdict, Jiang Yao's body softened and she collapsed in the dock. Her eyes were filled with despair and helplessness, and tears welled up in her eyes. But at this moment, no one would sympathize with her; her fate was her own doing.
As the bailiff escorted Jiang Yao out of the courtroom, the farce finally came to an end. As Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen left the courtroom, the sun shone down on them, bringing a touch of warmth. They knew the shadows of the past had completely dissipated, and they would usher in a new life.
Back home, Jiang Zhi hugged the children tightly, her heart full of emotion. Shen Qingchen hugged them from behind and said softly: "From now on, we don't have to worry anymore, we will always be happy."
Jiang Yao was sent to prison. Prison life was a new kind of torture for her. She had to face the cold cell, strict management system, and the cold stares and bullying of other prisoners. But all of this was the retribution she deserved.
During her time in prison, Jiang Yao often sat alone in a corner, reminiscing about her past. She recalled her once innocent self, and how, unbeknownst to her, jealousy and resentment had gradually taken hold of her, leading her step by step towards the abyss. Did she regret it? Perhaps only she knew. Regardless, her life had been completely rewritten, and she would spend long years behind bars, atoning for her crimes.
Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen occasionally thought of Jiang Yao, but that was merely a minor incident in their lives. Their focus had shifted to the well-being of their family and the restoration of their clan. They would take their children to the park, attend various social events together, and strive hard for the family business. Meanwhile, Jiang Yao, like a forgotten speck of dust, endured the punishment of fate alone in a corner of the prison. Her story became a warning to everyone, reminding them not to be blinded by jealousy and hatred, or they would suffer the consequences.
As the days passed, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen's lives grew happier and more fulfilling. Watching their children thrive, their hearts filled with hope and joy. Meanwhile, Jiang Yao, languishing in prison, faded into oblivion. Her name became a reminder to others to cherish their present happiness and uphold the moral and legal boundaries.
