Chapter 85 You are making my life worse than death

"What?"

"Go and turn yourself in and tell the police exactly what happened."

Grandma's face was pale and her lips were trembling.

"No."

Zhou Chong's eyes were cold and dark, like a snake without temperature.

"I must dig this up. Whether you turn yourself in or not, it won't affect the sentencing. If you turn yourself in, I can conceal this matter just like I concealed your suicide. If you turn yourself in, you will still have Xiaobao, a filial grandson. If you don't turn yourself in, you will have nothing."

Grandma was at a loss.

"Well, you should go get checked out, or Xiaobao will get suspicious."

He pushed the wheelchair over and asked her to sit on it.

The ordinary action made her feel terrified.

Zhou Chong pushed her out.

Grandma was a little upset, "Why don't you just kill me?"

"Because Xiaobao likes you. You should be thankful."

"But you made me push my own son to death. You made my life worse than death."

"So you also know that life is worse than death. I don't care what will happen to you, I care about Qingshan Xiaobao. This is not the first time you have forced a relative to death. I believe you can do it well."

Zhou Chong patted his grandmother's shoulder heavily.

“Don’t let me down.”

The nurse at the door of the department took grandma's wheelchair, pushed her in, and conducted a physical examination.

The doctor took one look at grandma and put on his stethoscope.

"You look pale, your heartbeat is fast, and you are sweating. What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's okay."

Shan Qingshan came back after buying breakfast. Grandma's examination was almost over, except that her heart rate needed to be measured at the end.

This time the heart rate was normal.

Zhou Chong: "I'm going to the pharmacy, you take grandma back."

"Did you prescribe medicine?"

"No, I use it."

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Chong pushed back the loose hair on his forehead, revealing his smooth forehead.

"Here, Scar."

Shan Qingshan looked carefully and found the scar.

“…”

"This is a crappy medicine prescribed by the town hospital. I've been using it for so long, but it's still there."

Shan Qingshan didn't think it was a big deal. He usually had some hair on his forehead, and the scar was so shallow that it couldn't be seen. Who would let their hair down and look at him for the scar for no reason?

Since he minds, “then buy something good.”

Zhou Chong was lost.

Qingshan Xiaobao asked him to buy medicine, and he really cared about his scar.

Disfigured.

So annoying!

Zhou Chong stroked his fur and tried to struggle.

“They say scars are the badge of a man.”

Shan Qingshan: "Generally speaking, it's reckless, don't leave scars."

“…”

Struggle and fail.

"I'll go buy it." If it doesn't work, I'll do some cosmetic surgery!

After Zhou Chong left, Shan Qingshan pushed his grandmother back and opened the breakfast dishes one by one.

"Today I saw some wontons for sale, so I bought some pickled mustard tuber and tea eggs for grandma to try."

Grandma picked up the spoon and said, "Child, I just mentioned it casually... but you took it to heart."

Her voice gradually faded away.

Wontons taste fresh and delicious, but people who eat them have mixed feelings.

"Zhou Chong likes you, what do you think?"

Shan Qingshan did not answer directly, and said: "I went to his house yesterday. His family is very nice and welcoming. Uncle Zhou also helped me choose a major and a job. The day after tomorrow I will go to shoot photos and commercials. After the New Year, a local TV station invited me to perform on the Lantern Festival Gala. After that, I will join the crew to shoot a play. I will be a supporting role and will not have many scenes."

His subsequent work, interspersed with his studies, took up an entire year.

“It’s too hard.”

Shan Qingshan said slowly: "I owe him a lot of money, I want to pay it back quickly, I don't want him to keep waiting for me."

Shan Qingshan: "Grandma, Shan Jian took my place in the college entrance examination. Dad and Shan Jian will go to jail. He is your only son. I know you will be sad, but this is their fault. I won't let it happen."

Shan Qingshan looked at his grandmother.

"The high school admission letter and house that Teacher Fang and Teacher Dong gave me are no longer useful. I want to rent a new one near Beijing University."

His eyes dropped slightly to the old man's aged hands.

"I don't want you to go back to fetching water, chopping wood, and farming."

“But that’s our home.”

“Wherever my grandma and I are, that’s home.”

Grandma was slightly stunned and then smiled.

"Yes, that's how it is."

"I'll take a look first, and then choose for you."

"good."

The old man's voice was unclear, and I didn't know if it was because of the wontons in his mouth or for some other reason.

When Zhou Chong came back after buying medicine, grandma was the only one in the room.

"Where's Xiaobao?"

"I said the shoes didn't fit, so I asked him to buy some for me."

Zhou Chong turned and walked out.

Then he should go find him. He didn't want to stay with this old lady.

"I agree."

Zhou Chong stopped.

Grandma sat by the bed, looking out the window.

"The Chinese New Year is coming in a few days. After the New Year, I will turn myself in."

"Xiaobao will go to shoot a commercial the day after tomorrow. I will bring a lawyer with me. Please tell the lawyer everything first."

"good."

-

The day after tomorrow.

Zhou Chong asked someone to follow Shan Qingshan to the studio, and he brought his family's lawyer to the hospital. He sat by the side and listened to his grandmother retell what happened from beginning to end.

Although he already knew it, after hearing it again, Zhou Chong still had a gloomy face and was full of anger, and he couldn't help but want to kill someone.

After listening, the lawyer asked a few questions, took notes, and left with Zhou Chong.

In the car, the lawyer said, "This case may not be convicted. It has been too long and the evidence is insufficient. The only charge that can be proven is rape."

"According to the existing intelligence and the old lady's story, Susan went to the village voluntarily, and Shan Fang was just leading the way, not cheating. After Shan Huai raped her, Susan did not deny that the child was not hers in order to protect herself. And before the discovery, Shan Huai took good care of Susan and even took her to the hospital for prenatal checkups. Therefore, in everyone's eyes, Susan and Shan Huai were in an unmarried relationship. For this reason, we cannot obtain useful evidence from the villagers."

"After the prenatal checkup revealed her condition, Shan Huai left. Susan was already pregnant, so the old lady advised her to give birth before leaving, which was reasonable. Although Shan Fang had a bad attitude, it was not harsh. During the birth, Shan Fang did not want to spend money and persuaded the old lady who had childbirth experience to deliver the baby herself, which led to Susan's death in childbirth. It is difficult to characterize this as murder."

Zhou Chong looked gloomy.

No wonder Qingshan Xiaobao took other measures in his previous life.

"Then decide the rape case first."

"Rape cases are difficult to convict. The old lady didn't witness it herself, and Shan Qingshan wasn't Shan Huai's child. The old lady's confession is too weak. Unless we can get his confession, we can send him to prison."

“Just send it in?”

“Just send it in.”

Zhou Chong snorted coldly, "What's this? People died there."

"It takes too long and there are too many gray areas. It's better to use public opinion."

"no."

If you use the public opinion Xiaobao will know.

The lawyer said, "Then we can only set up a trap."

In his previous life, Xiaobao solved all these problems independently without relying on Zhou Chong's help at all.

He is not weak, don't get me wrong.
