Chapter 22 Sentencing



Since learning Shen Shiyi's true identity, Nangong Zixin has been preoccupied and has had difficulty sleeping for the past few days.

Seeing that her daughter couldn't eat and put down her chopsticks after only a few bites, Madam Nangong asked worriedly, "Zixin, what's wrong with you lately?"

She's always so absent-minded, it worries me to death.

Looking at her mother's caring expression, Nangong Zixin thought of Bing'er. Over the years, no one cared about how she had survived those long years.

Bing'er, why didn't you admit it was you back then?

Is there something you can't say about it?

She really didn't dare to think any further; she was afraid to hear the answer she didn't want to know.

Madam Nangong thought her daughter was looking at her. "Zixin, why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?" Madam Nangong felt more and more uneasy; it was too abnormal.

Coming to her senses, Nangong Zixin quickly said, "No, Mom, it's nothing. I just can't figure out some things."

Yes, there are too many things she can't understand, so many that she can hardly count them all.

Lady Nangong finally felt relieved. "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Living well in the present is the most important thing."

She thought it was something serious.

Li Xinye, a man in the prison, sat in a corner, feeling uneasy ever since Shen Shiyi's visit yesterday.

She kept muttering to herself, "It's her, Bing'er, she's not dead? Impossible... How could this be?" How could this be? There was no way she could have survived that car accident six years ago.

That scene became a nightmare that gave him a headache whenever he thought about it. In that unexpected car accident, he lost the woman he loved most in his life, a separation that would last forever.

Mo Xuerong, a woman in the women's prison, has completely gone mad, muttering incoherently, "No... impossible, she's dead, she died a long time ago... hahahahaha."

"Quiet down!" the supervising officer roared in extreme impatience. He was really out of his mind to have encountered such a lunatic.

"Pah!" Shameless filthy thing, you have the nerve to wail and howl like a banshee. Sooner or later, God will punish you.

A few days later, Li Xinye and Mo Xuerong were escorted by the police to the military court. Surrounded by unfamiliar faces, he felt extremely uneasy.

Suddenly, he struggled violently and shouted, "No, I don't want to be here. I didn't do anything wrong... You framed me, you guys!" He was truly broken down and started biting anyone he could get his hands on.

...

When Mr. and Mrs. Li entered, they were so shocked by the sight before them that their legs went weak. How could this be? That was their son. How could he be being escorted and guarded by the police?

Heavens, how could you roast his hands and feet like a prisoner? No, her son!

Li's mother rushed forward uncontrollably, shouting, "No, you can't take my son away! He didn't do anything wrong! You can't wrong an innocent person!" How could this be? Why?

ah……

"Please move aside; obstructing official business is an even more serious offense." The higher-ups said they were serious offenders and could not be treated leniently.

Mr. Li then realized what was happening and hurriedly grabbed his wife's hand, determined not to let her commit any more crimes.

They tried to reason with him, saying, "Alright, how long are you going to keep this up?" What sins have they committed that God is punishing them like this?

On the judge's bench, the gavel clanged with a "clang," and "silence!" The once-boiling hall fell silent instantly. Who would dare to oppose the court? The state certainly wouldn't.

The court is sacred and solemn, and shall not be desecrated.

The verdict came down quickly. Li Xinye was convicted of multiple crimes, including attempted murder, bigamy, commercial theft, and drug trafficking, and was sentenced to death. He was executed by firing squad three days later.

Mo Xuerong was sentenced to death for attempted murder and completed murder, and was executed by firing squad three days later.

Given the Li family's status, they could have easily covered their tracks and escaped punishment, but unfortunately, the military's intervention deterred anyone from offering assistance.

It can only be said that Shen Shiyi is powerful enough now to bring those who deserve their punishment to justice.

The world is inherently unfair, but once you reach a certain level, you will attain what is called fairness.

When Li's parents heard the verdict, they were so shocked that they bent over. Li's mother almost couldn't stand up and had to rely on Li's father to stay upright.

Li Xinye was even more mentally deranged. How could this happen? This was not the result he deserved.

He pleaded desperately with his mother to save him, "Mom, save me, save me, I don't want to die!" He didn't want to die.

Hearing her son's words, Li's mother became even more incoherent, saying, "I'm sorry, son, I'm so sorry."

They couldn't afford a lawyer when their son got into trouble, and could only watch helplessly as their son was taken away.

Military courts, these are military courts! No matter how much power they have, it can't be greater than the military, or the state.

Shen Shiya learned of the verdict at night, and as darkness fell, she was powerless to do anything about it.

Just like that day when I couldn't save my son, I looked up at the sky, and it was still so blue, and the night breeze was still so cool. But things are different now.

When Qin Ziming came out, he saw her looking up at the sky. He knew she was reminiscing about the past.

He walked over gently and patted her shoulder reassuringly, saying, "Don't overthink it, this is the punishment he deserves."

He, a man, couldn't bear those things; I really don't know how she got through them and survived.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Damn it, Li Xinye, you deserve to die a horrible death. Execution is too lenient for you.

Where Shen Shiyi couldn't see, his hands were clenched tightly, veins bulging. Thankfully, it was dark.

A gentle breeze blew, and Chen Shiyi gazed into the distance, saying, "I know."

My child, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. We are not meant to be mother and daughter. Please forgive me!

After receiving the call from his subordinate, Ji Yunfeng remained stunned on the sofa for a long, long time, as if nothing had happened.

The verdict was finally delivered. He gave a self-deprecating laugh. "Heh heh, his best brother, executed by firing squad."

"Brother, did you hear that? He finally got his comeuppance. Are you happy?" Unexpectedly, in just a few years, he lost two brothers, one to a car accident and the other to execution.

"Bing'er, you should already know, right? Are you happy? You've finally gotten your revenge." In the days he didn't know, she had suffered so much injustice.

In the stillness of the night, while Shen Shiyi was fast asleep, Leng Qianhan entered her dreamland.

A white shirt and low-waisted jeans, with bangs above her eyebrows, she looked gentle, refined, and extraordinary. She dreamed of the person buried deep in her heart again.

He came to her bedside and slowly spoke, "Bing'er," a familiar voice and a familiar scent.

Even after so many years, he remains the same as before: gentle, considerate, kind, and handsome.

But she is no longer the same person she once was. The Su Bing'er who disappeared into the past is long gone. Now there is only a Chinese soldier who strikes fear into the hearts of everyone, Shen Shiyi.

He gently stroked Shen Shiyi's face and said softly, "Bing'er, I miss you so much. Do you miss me?"

The voice I miss is so gentle, it once sounded so happy and joyful, but now it sounds so heavy.

I'm sorry, Brother Qianhan, I have ultimately let you down.
