Chapter 76: The tragic death of Jian Zhengyuan
The raindrops hit the window, but still couldn't cover up the woman's trembling voice.
Jian Zhengyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, then suddenly grinned and called out in a very affectionate manner.
"Little Mom."
Just a name called out, but Zheng Hui trembled all over.
"Let me ask you, what did you do after your mother died?!"
Jian Zhengyuan pushed his wheelchair and slowly approached. The injuries he had suffered from Jian Yi not long ago had not yet completely healed.
He reached out and touched Zheng Hui's wrist.
Zheng Hui shuddered and pushed him away in disgust.
Jian Zhengyuan did not take her disgust to heart. He narrowed his eyes slightly and recalled that day decades ago, but there was no trace of remorse or guilt between his brows.
"Since you already know everything, why bother asking me? Yes, it's just as you know."
After hearing the devil's confession in person, Zheng Hui seemed to have all her strength drained away. She staggered a few steps before she could barely stand.
The old man was her brother-in-law, but he had taken her by force after her sister's death. She tried to escape, but was caught, and then escaped again. After struggling for half her life, she still couldn't escape the old man's shackles and imprisonment.
She was extremely disgusted with this relationship, which had been destroyed and withered for decades.
Until the old man died.
After she escaped from Jane's house, she was not caught again as she had been before. She thought dawn had finally arrived.
But suddenly one day she received some blurry photos and recordings, which made her realize the truth of the matter.
Just like Pandora's box, once it is opened, some truths are unbearable for the parties involved.
Although her sister wasn't her biological daughter, she treated her very well. Even though it wasn't what she wanted, she still felt a little guilty and wanted to be nice to him even when she was struggling to survive.
But it was not until now that she realized that the old man's taking a fancy to her and robbing her was not an accident, but was instigated by Jian Zhengyuan, who was only twelve years old at the time.
After she suffered humiliation and failed to escape several times, he was the one who tipped her off and once again captured her and threw her into this endless purgatory.
When she pieced together the truth, Zheng Hui's whole body was cold and she lay on the sink, vomiting until only acid water came out.
She thought that fate was playing tricks on her, and she thought she had finally escaped from the tricks of fate.
In the end, everything is man-made!
Jian Zhengyuan ignored it and tilted his head.
"I'm thirsty, pour me a glass of water."
Although Zheng Hui was his stepmother, she was only seven years older than him. His mother had just passed away when women started to surround him. He knew full well that the old man would never remain a virgin for his mother, otherwise he wouldn't have been so frivolous that he angered his mother to the point of losing control and causing a car accident.
But the old man has one advantage: he attaches great importance to blood legitimacy and never has children out of wedlock.
But if he marries again, that may not be the case.
In order to ensure that his own interests and status are not shaken, he must ensure that there is no next brother. In the end, he turned his attention to his mother's half-sister, with whom he has a good relationship.
Because of their close relationship, she must be very painful when she commits herself to her brother-in-law. She will hate the old man and will not have children with him. She will feel guilty and then project this guilt on him.
Looking back now, Jian Zhengyuan still feels that he made such a smart decision at that age, killing two birds with one stone.
And Zheng Hui's trajectory was exactly as he expected.
Whenever Zheng Hui escaped, he would help catch her and ask the old man for a reward. After the old man died, he was the one who had the final say in the Jian family. He didn't need to rely on anyone, so even if Zheng Hui escaped again, he didn't pay any attention to her.
Because Zheng Hui is of no use to him.
"Aunt, you're finally back. Don't you know they didn't listen to me? They crippled my legs, fired me, and put me under house arrest."
At this time, he still shamelessly expressed his grievances and asked for favoritism.
"roll!!!"
Zheng Hui bit her lower lip tightly, and because she bit too hard, blood oozed from the corner of her mouth, staining her originally pale lips bright red, like a blooming red spider lily, with a sad and desperate beauty.
Hatred supported all her strength and she stood up.
But her despair was like a fingertip touching a string, stirring up a desire for perverted pleasure.
Jian Zhengyuan quietly watched her go crazy and despair. The pretended grievance disappeared completely, and the corners of his eyes with ravines showed undisguised teasing and pride.
How could I not be proud? How could I not show off?
This was the only thing that made him feel accomplished after Jian Sili and Jian Yi rebelled.
Zheng Hui went crazy because of him because he came back. The crazier she is, doesn't it prove how successful he is?
He never took Zheng Hui seriously, nor did he think she could do anything.
Zheng Hui is like a canary trapped in a cage. No matter how she flaps her wings, she can never fly out of the cage and can't make much noise.
She thought she had gained freedom and flew away, but in fact her master just thought she was useless.
"Bang!"
The glass teacup hit his head, and Jian Zhengyuan's wheelchair rolled to the ground. Blood oozed from his forehead, and the teacup also smashed to the ground.
Zheng Hui supported his shaky body.
Jian Zhengyuan fell to the ground and struggled for a long time without getting up. Ever since his leg was crippled, his body has become increasingly weak, not to mention that he was beaten by his rebellious son Jian Yi two days ago.
Blood flowed down his forehead, blurring his vision.
He laughed triumphantly.
"So what if you smashed me? Hahaha, auntie, you are the most obedient woman I have ever met. Do you know how happy I am every time I bring you back, because I can ask for a reward again..."
"Shut up!" Zheng Hui shouted as she stepped forward. "Don't you think I wouldn't dare do anything to you?!"
Suddenly, Jian Zhengyuan gathered all his strength to pull Zheng Hui's legs, threw Zheng Hui to the ground, and then strangled Zheng Hui's neck with his arms.
Even though he was weaker than before, he was still an adult man, and Zheng Hui had no advantage in strength.
The oxygen was squeezed out bit by bit, Zheng Hui couldn't breathe, and her face turned red.
She struggled, but the man was determined to break her slender neck.
Is it over like this?
No, it's impossible.
She reached into her bag and pulled out a fruit knife.
This knife was originally brought for self-protection.
The moment the sharp tip of the knife pierced into my body, the whole world seemed to stop, with only the sound of rain outside the window getting louder and louder.
The strength in his arms loosened, and a trace of disbelief and shock flashed in Jian Zhengyuan's fierce eyes.
Blood flowed along the blade, instantly staining his clothes red.
Having just escaped death, Zheng Hui lay exhausted on the ground, gasping for breath.
A bloody arm climbed up her ankle like a cold poisonous snake, causing her to shudder and crawl up from the ground.
The viciousness in the man's eyes was undisguised, and her instinct for survival made her pick up the knife again and thrust it into his body once more.
Jian Zhengyuan's face was as pale as paper, his breathing was weak and labored. Blood flowed out of his mouth, but he still screamed.
"Auntie..."
"Shut up!"
"Auntie..."
"I told you to shut up!!!"
The surging hatred and pain turned into strength in her hands. She gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with both hands and thrust it into the man's body once again.
As the blade was pulled out, blood splattered onto her fair face, slid down her cheeks, and dripped onto her cotton and linen skirt.
The man lay in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open, but he no longer had any strength.
He was confident that this canary would not cause much trouble. After all, the old man imprisoned her like that, and her resistance was just to escape, get contraception, and then outlast the old man. She was so timid that it was cute.
He never took Zheng Hui seriously. He thought Zheng Hui would only be a pawn in the hands of him and his son.
But he didn't expect that she would kill him in the end.
Zheng Hui's hands were still shaking.
She dialed the number.
"Come and collect his body."
On this stormy night, everything finally ended.
*
The sound of the rain is a natural white noise. Gao Li listens to the sound of the rain while typing on the keyboard to complete today's typing task.
"Host! Something big has happened!"
The sudden appearance of No. 13's voice was particularly abrupt in the quiet room, directly cutting off Gao Li's thoughts.
She sulked.
"We've received an alert. Jian Zhengyuan has no signs of life!"
Gao Li was stunned for a moment.
--[What? ]
No. 13: "Jian Zhengyuan is dead. I don't know what happened exactly, but the alarm shows that Jian Zhengyuan has no signs of life."
Gao Li stood up immediately, and the chair slid to the ground with a harsh sound as its owner stood up in a hurry.
Jian Yi also heard it. He put down everything in his hands and took Gao Li out.
A black luxury car drove out of Qingshan Villa and quickly rushed into the dark rainy night.
Gao Li held her cell phone tightly, on which was the chat history between her and Su Sangwan.
Su Sangwan told her that Jian Sili had just received a call from Zheng Hui, who only said one sentence on the phone: "Come and collect his body."
The couple were also rushing to Jian's house.
When Gao Li suddenly saw this name, his eyelids twitched slightly and his heart beat wildly, as if a pair of invisible hands were holding it tightly.
——[Zheng Hui?]
Since she came into this world, I have never seen her in person.
——[Did she kill Jian Zhengyuan? What kind of mad thing did Jian Zhengyuan do again?!]
——[No. 13, isn't your system amazing? Go check it out! I want to know what Jian Zhengyuan did after the ending, outside of the plot!]
The matter was very urgent, so No. 13 did not argue with Gao Li and returned to the headquarters in a hurry.
By the time the cause was discovered, the car braked to a sudden stop in front of Jian's house, splashing rain everywhere.
The car door opened, Gao Li stepped in the rain, his legs were weak and he almost fell down, but fortunately Jian Yi was quick to support him.
She calmed herself down and shook her head at Jian Yi.
——［I’m fine.］
They hurried to the only lit room in Jian's house. As soon as they stepped in, Jian Yi held her shoulders and turned her around.
He moved quickly, but at that moment, Gao Li still saw the situation inside the house clearly.
That brief moment caused a huge impact on her eyes.
The room was in shambles, a wheelchair tumbling to one side. Shocking blood gushed from Jian Zhengyuan's side, staining the ground red and forming a horrifying pool. Mixed in with the blood were tiny shards of glass, which shone cruelly and coldly under the refraction of the light.
The fruit knife lay silently in a pool of blood.
No. 13: "I didn't expect him to be offline so tragically. This is his karma, I guess."
