"Wow, have you guys seen the news? This person is Jing Jun, right?" Having just returned from a business trip, Yue Ting didn't go to her own rented apartment. After learning that Wei Zhu was at the snack shop, she came straight over.
Wei Zhu also had a complicated expression: "It was him. I really didn't expect that he would not only shove people on the street, but also dare to stab them."
"After watching the surveillance footage, it's clear that it was entirely his fault. Netizens are outraged, so I doubt he'll get a lenient sentence." Yue Ting was quite happy, as this meant she no longer had to worry about her and Wei Zhu's safety.
"I've read the criminal law. Intentionally causing serious injury can result in a maximum sentence of three to ten years imprisonment. It all depends on how the judge decides in the end."
"Tsk, what's gotten into him? Why did he suddenly hurt someone?"
Who knows!
"But he won't come looking for you again after he gets out of prison, will he?"
"I don't think so," Wei Zhu frowned. "Once he goes into that place, his life is ruined, not to mention he's not young anymore."
"I'm afraid he might act impulsively out of jealousy. Since he's already lost everything, what if he thinks he got into trouble on his way to find you, and then blames it all on you?"
"I won't let him have that chance." Zhuang Bo sat down and said. Having been in a relationship with Wei Zhu for so long, he had already heard about Jing Jun's situation and had been on high alert these past few days. He wouldn't allow anyone to ruin the happiness he had finally achieved.
Yue Ting nodded. She still believed in Zhuang Bo. In terms of relationships, she did envy Wei Zhu and wondered if she could find someone as good as him in the future. Although she envied him, she would not make it her goal. Her most important goal in life was to make money, and everything else could come later.
While busy, Song Xia nodded to herself. She would keep an eye on things, but she could relax a bit in the next few years.
She was also happy for the girl named Kong Yan, who had easily gotten rid of Jing Jun.
When Kong Yan heard the news that Jing Jun had been arrested, she was still a little confused. How did Jing Jun get into trouble?
When the police questioned her about Jing Jun, she truthfully recounted his character. At that moment, she noticed something amusing: the workshop buddies who usually treated Jing Jun like a brother were now talking badly about him, saying how domineering and petty he was, and in short, not a single good word about him.
Although Jing Jun was arrested and would no longer come to work, Kong Yan still decided to resign. There were too many people talking, and she hadn't made it public that she wanted to break up with Jing Jun. Who knew what people would say in the future?
When she told her parents the news, they were also relieved.
"Luckily, you said you wanted to postpone getting the marriage certificate during the Chinese New Year, otherwise what would you have done? And thankfully, he didn't hurt you after he drank. I never thought he was such a ruthless person!"
Kong Yan was also overjoyed, and now the weight on her heart was finally lifted: "Mom, I'll go back in a few days."
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Kong felt that her daughter had escaped death. "Rest well now that you're back. There's no rush to find a job. I won't urge you to get married in the future. Just make sure you choose the right person."
Kong Yan never expected that she would turn misfortune into blessing. She never wanted to get married too early, and now no one was pressuring her anymore.
Because the facts of the crime were clear and the patient's injuries were serious, Jing Jun's case was quickly adjudicated, and he was sentenced to five years in prison.
Yue Ting sipped her wine: "Five years is not a long time, but it's not short either. Society is developing so fast these days. By the time he gets out, it will be enough for him to become out of touch with society."
"If his family hadn't sold off all his assets to compensate the victims, he probably would have been sentenced to a higher sentence."
"He was left with nothing after he got out, which was enough to make him suffer."
After Jing Jun's matter came to an end, Wei Zhu and Zhuang Bo began to prepare for their wedding. The wedding was scheduled for the second half of the year. Since there were no relatives in Wei's family, Song Xia planned to treat the regular customers of the snack shop to a free meal for a day, as a way to add to the joy of the newlyweds.
The real wedding will be held in Zhuang Bo's hometown during the Spring Festival. Rural people don't have many customs, so Wei Zhu and Zhuang Bo plan to save money by hiring the village chef to host a two-day feast.
Fearing that this would upset Wei Zhu, Mr. Zhuang called Song Xia twice, hoping the young couple would change their minds. He suggested that even if they didn't go to a hotel, they should at least hire a wedding planning company or something, saying that the couple wouldn't have to pay for it, as he could handle it.
But in the end, Song Xia persuaded them to go back to their decision. The marriage was between Wei Zhu and Zhuang Bo, and they could decide for themselves.
Moreover, Zhuang Bo really didn't mistreat Wei Zhu. He bought her two sets of gold jewelry and even took her on a trip to another city under the pretext of taking wedding photos.
Wei Zhu said reproachfully, "One set of jewelry is enough. Why do you insist on buying two sets?"
“You can wear two sets alternately. You don’t want a diamond ring, but you should buy more gold jewelry. Besides, buying gold jewelry is a good investment, consider it as an investment.” Zhuang Bo said with a sigh, “I think this is not enough. When the family is better off, I will buy you some every year.”
Wei Zhu said it was a waste, but she was secretly overjoyed. Then she started to complain, "Why did we have to go to another city to take wedding photos? At this rate, when will we ever be able to afford a house?"
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event, and the wedding is already so simple. I don't want to mistreat you in any other way."
After much persuasion, Wei Zhu finally agreed under Zhuang Bo's persistent coaxing. They took advantage of the holiday to go on a fun trip, and when they returned, they were even more inseparable.
Yue Ting added with emotion, "They say you can tell how strong a relationship is by going on a trip together. I don't think I need to worry about your relationship having any problems in this lifetime."
Zhuang Bo said firmly, "What you're describing will never happen, don't worry."
As they joked around, Song Xia laughed. In this life, her daughter could finally have a good ending.
Wei Deng was also very happy for his sister. If Zhuang Bo ever dared to wrong his sister in the future, he would never let him get away with it.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, some went home and others went back to school. Then Wei Deng caught a glimpse of Mo Ru getting out of a car. When she saw him, she proudly raised her chin.
Wei Deng remained oblivious, which infuriated Mo Ru. She had found someone better now, and didn't Wei Deng think it was his own fault? Women should be pampered, what's wrong with that idea? With Wei Deng's petty nature, even if he had his mother's cooking skills and found another girlfriend, it wouldn't last.
"Honey, what are you looking at?"
"Nothing, just an annoying person."
"Honey, you go inside first, I'll come pick you up next time."
"Okay." Mo Ru tiptoed and kissed him, her expression shy, which made the man laugh out loud.
After the man drove away, Mo Ru took the new bag he had given her back to her dorm room, and then proudly told him the price, unaware that everyone was becoming increasingly distant from her.
