Chapter 2173 Are you still going to hold me accountable?
"I..." Zheng Yuru was speechless for a moment.
It's not that she doesn't want to deny it, but at this point, it's useless to deny it because she has already said it herself.
"Aren't you going to tell the truth?" Yuan Wenye scolded.
Knowing that she could not avoid talking about it anymore, Zheng Yuru stopped avoiding it and went all out: "Yes, I know that Song Yang killed Zhao Xiaoxi. I hate Zhao Xiaoxi and I wish she would die. Her existence is my shame and reminds me of your betrayal. But I never meant to kill her from the beginning to the end. It was just an accident. I just wanted Song Yang to abandon Zhao Xiaoxi. Song Yang killed her himself. What does it have to do with me?"
Of course, there is some concealment in this statement.
Although, she didn't intend to let Zhao Xiaoxi die at first, but she wanted her to live a life worse than death. Death was just an accident.
However, after all, Zhao Xiaoxi's death was caused by herself, so Zheng Yuru felt so guilty.
When Yuan Wenye heard Zheng Yuru mention betrayal, he felt a little guilty. He was indeed wrong in this matter, and he also knew that Zheng Yuru was really hurt because of this incident, so his anger subsided a little.
But the current situation is serious, and he can't just let it go: "But you can just let her leave the capital, why do you have to kill her! I know I was wrong about that thing, but didn't you also promise not to pursue it?"
"Yes, I promised not to pursue it, but this matter has always been a thorn in my heart, and I just can't get over it. Anyway, Zhao Xiaoxi has been dead for so long, and Song Yang, who killed Zhao Xiaoxi, is also dead. Do you still want to pursue me?" Zheng Yuru said. She dared to speak to Yuan Wenye like this, and she was sure that Yuan Wenye would not really pursue her.
It’s not that Zheng Yuru felt that Yuan Wenye loved her so much that she didn’t pursue the matter. It’s just that there is no love between them anymore and their feelings are as thin as paper.
She believed that Yuan Wenye would not pursue her because he did it for the sake of their children.
Besides, Yuan Wenye also needs his reputation and won't make things look bad.
"You..." Yuan Wenye was so angry. Although he was indeed very angry, he really couldn't hold anyone accountable if he wanted to!
Just as Zheng Yuru said, Zhao Xiaoxi has been dead for so long, and Song Yang, who killed Zhao Xiaoxi, is also dead, so it can be considered as compensation.
Although Zheng Yuru was also involved in this matter, he could not pursue the matter further, whether for the sake of his children or his reputation.
The most important thing is that he has no feelings for Zhao Xiaoxi, so it is not that important, so he doesn't care that much.
But even if he had no feelings for Zhao Xiaoxi, and no matter how unimportant Zhao Xiaoxi was to him, she was still his daughter after all. She was killed by the person she slept with and she kept it a secret from him for so long. He was still very angry and still felt uncomfortable. So even if he didn't pursue the matter, he didn't want to see her now.
"I won't pursue you because I don't want people to know that the Yuan family is involved in the murder case. During this time, I will go to the study to sleep." Yuan Wenye said coldly, then he got up and left the bedroom.
"······" Looking at Yuan Wenye's leaving back, Zheng Yuru wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. Because she knew that this matter would really make Yuan Wenye very angry, otherwise she would not have kept it secret.
But now that the matter has been exposed, she doesn't expect Yuan Wenye to forgive her immediately. It's already good enough that Yuan Wenye doesn't pursue the matter.
But what she was worried about was how much Gu Ning knew and whether he would tell others. Therefore, Zheng Yuru was not relieved at this time because Yuan Wenye did not pursue the matter.
Zheng Yuru collapsed on the bed, unable to fall asleep anymore.
Another person who couldn't sleep that night was Madam Yuan Er, because what she had heard about Zhao Xiaoxi during the day was still lingering in her mind.
Because Yuan Wenye had an illegitimate daughter, she couldn't help but worry and wonder whether Yuan Wenyue might also have illegitimate children, but she didn't dare to ask.
First, she was afraid that he had illegitimate children outside, and she would not be able to accept it if she knew about it. Second, she promised Zheng Yuru not to tell this matter to anyone.
Although the relationship between sisters-in-law has never been very good, Zheng Yuru's personality is too strong, and she is a little weak, so she dare not go against Zheng Yuru.
If the relationship was bad, any mistake made by the other party would have been spread maliciously long ago.
Also, thinking about the issue of Zhao Xiaoxi's death being related to Zheng Yuru, and thinking about how cruel Zheng Yuru was, she felt extremely scared of Zheng Yuru, and didn't know how to face her in the future!
Although, she could understand Zheng Yuru's hatred for Zhao Xiaoxi, if it were her, she would not be able to accept it, but she did not dare to do something like killing someone.
Because Mrs. Yuan Er couldn't sleep, she tossed and turned, waking up Yuan Wenyue who was lying beside her. Then the two of them also heard noisy sounds coming from Zheng Yuru and her husband's room.
It's just that the voice was not loud and it was unclear what was being said, but Mrs. Yuan Er speculated that Yuan Wenye might have discovered Zhao Xiaoxi's affair.
"What are they arguing about in the middle of the night?!" Yuan Wenyue muttered unhappily. Although it was normal for couples to quarrel, it was annoying to hear them in the middle of the night.
"I don't know," Mrs. Yuan Er replied.
"Are you feeling unwell? Why are you tossing and turning?" Yuan Wenyue asked.
"No, I just can't sleep." Madam Yuan Er said that she couldn't tell him those things anymore.
Yuan Wenyue didn't care anymore, he had to go to work the next day, so he went back to sleep.
On Monday, Gu Ning did not go to school, but accompanied Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing to take care of the store affairs.
The name of the flower shop is "Spirit Pavilion". "Spirit" comes from the fact that their plants are full of spiritual energy.
In the morning, Gu Ning asked Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to move the flower pots to Xiaoyao Villa, while Gu Ning took Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing to Xiaoyao Villa first.
As soon as I entered Xiaoyao Villa, I felt a spiritual energy in the air, which came from the plants transplanted by Gu Ning and his companions. Because those plants were dripped with spiritual energy crystals by Gu Ning and his companions, they all had spiritual energy, but it was very thin.
However, the plants that were dripped with spiritual energy appeared to be full of vitality and were very eye-catching.
Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing were very happy about this.
"That's great. We don't have to worry about not being able to sell such vibrant and beautiful plants." Miao Jingjing said, a little impatient.
"Yes! This is all thanks to Gu Ning!" Jing Yunyao said. Now, she saw how popular their plants were.
