Chapter 107 Finale
"Do you want money or life?"
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Shanxi's eyes suddenly burst into a strange light. She immediately felt that her chance had come, and sat on the stool opposite Yuan Ming as quickly as possible.
"Do you have a way to get me out?"
Yuan Ming looked at him sarcastically: "Party-building, self-medication, and hypocrisy, which one is not a capital crime? Get you out? What are you still dreaming about?"
Yuan Shanxi was annoyed by his eyes, and slammed the table in anger: "How dare you! I'm your father! Is this how you talk to your father? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Yuan Ming didn't want to talk to him about anything else, and continued: "The life I'm talking about is not your life, but the life of your good son Ding Zile."
Hearing this name, Yuan Shanxi's face changed drastically.
Yuan Ming taunted him, "When you were a Jinshi, you abandoned your childhood sweetheart for the sake of your career and asked to marry the daughter of the prefect. Later, you relied on the resources and status of your wife's family to rise step by step, and only then did you have the opportunity to reach your current position. People are like this. After you have power and money, you will remember your first love."
"After learning that your first love never married and had passed away, and gave birth to a son for you, you went crazy and treated him well, as if this could make up for the debt you once owed to your lover."
Yuan Ming stood up and looked down at him, "Unfortunately, what you don't know is that the thing that the woman surnamed Ding regretted most before she died was meeting you. If there is an afterlife, she will definitely stay away from you."
Yuan Shanxi stared at him with tears in her eyes, His eyes were filled with bloodshot: "No! A'yue is the person who understands me the most in this world. She has not married, which means she still loves me and is waiting for me! What you said is not true!"
"I won't argue with you because it is meaningless. You know best in your heart whether what I said is true or not." Yuan Ming took a sip of tea and said, "I know you have protected Ding Zile very well and have invested a lot of effort in him over the years. Now you are resisting and unwilling to reveal your cards because of him. But I can tell you clearly now that your secret is no longer a secret. Think about it carefully. Do you want him to die with you or confess everything?"
"Why should I believe you?" Yuan Shanxi stared at him with a poisonous look.
Yuan Ming laughed: "Of course you don't have to believe me. I didn't come here for you to believe me, but to see you struggling in pain. As for Ding Zile, even if you don't tell me, I can catch him."
Yuan Shanxi groaned and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Yuan Ming frowned slightly, but soon recovered.
"You can give yourself some time to think, but I'm very busy. I don't know if you will have a chance to see me again before the emperor runs out of patience and kills you directly." After saying that, he walked out as if he had no regrets.
Yuan Shanxi panicked and called him: "Can you really save him?"
Yuan Ming said: "It's the same sentence, believe it or not."
Yuan Shanxi struggled, and finally nodded: "Okay, I promise you."
Yuan Ming smiled slightly, without much emotional ups and downs. He knew the position of Ding Zile in Yuan Shanxi's heart as early as his last life.
But the difference is that he would be painful and disappointed at first, but now he just wants to laugh.
In the final analysis, the person Yuan Shanxi loves is only himself. If he had not reached a desperate situation, he could still give up Ding Zile and find a way for himself, just like before.
Holding the confession written by Yuan Shanxi, Yuan Ming read it once, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
"Don't forget what you said."
Yuan Ming folded the confession and put it in his lapel, and perfunctorily hummed.
Seeing him like this, Yuan Shanxi was so angry that his teeth itched, but there was nothing he could do. Now he was the prisoner.
After thinking it through, Yuan Shanxi's mood became calm. He sat down against the wall and looked at Yuan Ming deeply: "Although I have never seen you before, you are indeed the most like me. If you had come to me earlier, you would not have to make a living under Li Qinggang."
Yuan Ming was extremely uncomfortable with his scrutinizing eyes and sneered: "I am different from you. Except for this face, there is nothing similar between you and me."
Yuan Shanxi looked at him and suddenly burst into laughter. He laughed so hard that he was out of breath and tears came out of his eyes.
Yuan Ming pushed the door open and said to the jailer outside, "The prisoner has confessed, take him back."
Walking out of the prison, the sun was shining brightly, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on Yuan Ming, dispelling the coldness around him, but the cold atmosphere in the prison was slow to dissipate.
After handing the evidence to Li Qinggang, Yuan Ming asked for a long vacation. His
great revenge was achieved, and the most important thing for him now was to be with Ji Qingyue, so that he could calm down as soon as possible and take good care of him and the children.
During this month, Yuan Ming's family of four went to many places, all of which were prosperous and safe cities around the capital. The two children were still young and Ji Qingyue had gained a lot of experience.
In Gonghua City, a river city full of exotic flowers and plants, Yuan Ming proposed again, smoothing out Ji Qingyue's heart.
In a sea of purple lavender, Yuan Ming and Ji Qingyue held hands tightly, the breeze blew up the hem of their clothes, and the two smiled at each other, their eyes full of each other.
