Chapter 342 Opportunity to Choose
Without waiting for Lu Chunxia to reply, Nie Yao sneered and added, "You're living alone in this rental house now, away from your family, but that doesn't mean they won't be implicated by the mistakes you made... Perhaps your children and grandchildren will be constantly criticized for having a murderer like you as a relative!"
Lu Chunxia raised her head and looked at Nie Yao. Her body trembled suddenly, and she knelt down in front of her with a plop. She pulled Nie Yao's trouser legs and begged, "Miss Nie, please forgive me. I really didn't kill anyone, and I'm not the murderer..."
"Stand up and talk!" Nie Yao originally just wanted to scare Lu Chunxia, but she didn't expect that she would actually kneel down with her. She hurriedly supported her arm and asked her to stand up.
But Lu Chunxia refused to stand up and just knelt in front of Nie Yao, her face full of pleading: "Ms. Nie, you are the daughter of a wealthy family. I, an ordinary person, can't afford to offend you. Please let me go and let my family go!"
After she said this, she actually wanted to kowtow to Nie Yao, but Nie Yao stopped her and said angrily and amusedly, "If you really killed my grandfather, even if I let you go, the law won't let you go! But if you didn't do it, there's no need to be so scared. I came to you only to seek the truth!"
"I..." Lu Chunxia was stunned. She met Nie Yao's gaze and asked hesitantly, "Ms. Nie, you really won't send me to jail?"
"Unless you killed my grandfather!" Nie Yao replied in a deep voice.
Seeing that Lu Chunxia still had some fear on her face, Nie Yao bent down, helped her up, and whispered, "Ms. Lu, you've changed your name and surname for all these years, hiding in your hometown in the countryside, and losing a promising career. I'm afraid it must not be easy. Are you really willing to accept this..."
Lu Chunxia shook her head, a look of unconcealable sadness already appearing on her face...
Who could have thought that her life would be ruined by the death of one person, and she has been living in fear and worry, and has never had a good night's sleep!
Her husband can't stand her, her son can't stand her, and even her daughter-in-law doesn't like her!
If her son and his family had not found good jobs here and bought a new house, and she had not taken on the responsibility of taking care of her grandson, she might never have dared to set foot in this city again in her life!
She didn't dare to worship Mr. Yu in her son and daughter-in-law's new house, so she could only rent a cheap old house like this. But even so, Mr. Yu's granddaughter finally found her!
"If I could choose again, I would rather nothing had happened..." Lu Chunxia sighed with a bitter smile on her lips.
"Although what happened cannot be changed, you still have the opportunity to choose now!"
Nie Yao reached out and placed a hand on her shoulder, reminding her in a deep voice, "You've been paying homage to my grandfather privately because you feel guilty. This shows that you haven't lost your conscience. So, you're not without the opportunity to make a new choice. You can still make some amends for what happened back then, and you don't have to carry such a heavy burden on your shoulders!"
Nie Yao's voice was low and earnest. Lu Chunxia smiled bitterly and asked in a low voice, "Can it really be remedied and saved?"
"Of course!" Nie Yao answered without hesitation.
Lu Chunxia looked up at Nie Yao, and meeting her comforting and encouraging gaze, she finally mustered up the courage and told her what had happened that year.
