Chapter 128 Chapter 128 Tit for Tat
Jiang Shaojie's eyes were dark, and a smile crossed his lips. "I'm so happy to finally see you. I knew you would come. After all, you hate me so much, so of course you want to see me caught the most."
"But, Jiang Xi, I won't be a dog that wags its tail and begs for mercy, nor will I surrender so awkwardly, nor will I hide here and there like a stray dog. My fate is always determined by me."
"Jiang Xi, it's not pleasant to lose control, but there's one thing I'm thankful for: you and I aren't really siblings. How wonderful, haha."
Jiang Shaojie's eyes swept across Jiang Xi's face, and he suddenly stood up. Before anyone could react, he jumped into the river. It had just rained heavily, and the river was rushing. Jiang Shaojie was quickly swept away by the surging river and disappeared.
Everyone was stunned by this sudden change. Some of the police officers quickly jumped in to look for him, while others chased him downstream along the shore.
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes slightly. Qi Yu'an's reassuring voice came to his ears: "This is the ending he chose. You don't need to blame yourself."
Jiang Xi shook his head: "I don't blame myself, I just..."
Qi Yu'an: "If it embarrasses you, you don't need to tell me, I won't ask any questions."
Jiang Xi breathed a sigh of relief, because she didn't even know how to describe her emotions at this moment. Standing in this place that once made her tremble, Jiang Shaojie pushed her into the river in her previous life, and now, the person who once killed her also fell into the same river. Is this a reincarnation, a cycle of cause and effect? Jiang Xi in her previous life finally got compensation.
"Let's wait a little longer. I want to see his end with my own eyes." Jiang Xi heard his own calm voice.
Qi Yu'an: "Well, I'll accompany you."
The two men didn't have to wait long. After a while, the police came back, bringing back Jiang Shaojie's body.
A police officer said: "He jumped into the river and hit a rock. He must have been knocked unconscious at the time. Then he was washed by the river for so long that when we found him, he was already dead."
Jiang Xi glanced at the pale corpse calmly, then quickly looked away. He held Qi Yu'an's hand and said, "Let's go back to the police station to take a statement."
Qi Yu'an observed Jiang Xi's expression and was relieved when he confirmed that she was not frightened: "Well, let's go to the police station."
Some people took Qi Yu'an and Jiang Xi to the police station, while some police officers waited there.
The police have notified Jiang Shaojie's family, and Jiang's family quickly rushed to the scene.
Chen Xuemei stumbled all the way, full of fear. Jiang Haibo was also very scared and walked in silence all the way to the river. Jiang Qiaohe almost cried out.
Jiang Shaojie lay there quietly, his face pale and the large swelling on his forehead was shocking. Chen Xuemei cried out heartbreakingly, "My son, my son, why did you leave like this? Why did you leave like this?"
The first person Chen Xuemei thought of was Jiang Xi: "Is it that bitch Jiang Xi? She killed my son. I want her to pay with her life. Go catch her! Smash her to death!"
The police said: "The person jumped into the river on his own. We all saw it with our own eyes. He also kidnapped Jiang Xi today. Jiang Xi is the victim."
Chen Xuemei had collapsed and refused to listen to the police. She hugged Jiang Shaojie's head and said, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it. Where is that bitch? Find her for me. I want her dead! I want her dead!"
Jiang Haibo squatted down and looked at his beloved son. His whole body was shaking. This was the hope of the Jiang family and the only heir he had been waiting for for so many years. He had used all the resources of the Jiang family to support Jiang Shaojie over the years, but now he had nothing. Why?
Jiang Haibo's eyes were red: "Where is Jiang Xi? I want to see her, I want her to pay for my son's life!"
Jiang Qiaohe was completely stunned. She covered her mouth and cried softly. Why did things turn out like this?
After Jiang Xi and Qi Yu'an finished their statements at the police station, they did not forget to tell the police that in addition to Jiang Haibo, Lin Lihua from the Youth League Institute was also involved in the last incident.
After Jiang Xi and Qi Yu'an finished taking notes, they met Chen Xuemei, Jiang Haibo and his group.
Chen Xuemei was almost crazy, and was about to hit Jiang Xi when she saw him. Qi Yuan protected Jiang Xi behind him and said coldly, "What do you want to do?"
Chen Xuemei screamed, "I'm going to kill her! I'm going to kill her! This little bitch killed my son! It's all her fault. If it weren't for her, my son wouldn't have died! Ahhhhhh, I'm going to kill her!"
Jiang Haibo's face turned pale, his eyes filled with hatred. He pointed at Jiang Xi and said, "I should have known earlier, I should have known earlier, you are not a good person at all. I should have smothered you to death when you were born! You are a disaster! Born to collect debts!"
Jiang Xi has regained her composure. In her heart, she has completely cut ties with the Jiang family. Jiang Haibo and Chen Xuemei's words cannot hurt her at all.
Jiang Xi sneered at Chen Xuemei and said, "How dare you put all the blame on me? I tell you, Jiang Shaojie was killed by you."
Chen Xuemei gritted her teeth and said, "You bitch, what are you talking about? Shaojie was clearly killed by you, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Jiang Xi looked at the frantic Chen Xuemei and said word by word: "Did you go to the train station that day? Jiang Shaojie was there too."
Chen Xuemei's eyes were bloodshot, she couldn't believe it: "What are you talking about, you bitch, what nonsense are you making up! You still don't admit it, you are a disaster!"
Jiang Xi sneered: "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."
Chen Xuemei continued to shout, "Stop playing tricks on me. Give me back my child, or I'll make you pay with your life!"
Jiang Xi: "Let me help you recall. Who was that man you met at the train station that day? You guys were having a lot of fun together, and you gave him so much money..."
Chen Xuemei interrupted immediately: "Even if you make up so many lies, it can't change the fact that you killed Shaojie! It was you, only you, a bitch, are so vicious. You've disliked us for a long time, so you used a trick to seek revenge. Now you succeeded, you succeeded in taking revenge on us. You are a devil, return Shaojie's life to me!"
Chen Xuemei wanted to rush over and hit Jiang Xi, but was unexpectedly stopped by Jiang Haibo. Jiang Haibo firmly blocked Chen Xuemei with one hand, glared at her, turned to look at Jiang Xi and asked in a deep voice: "What are you talking about? Who is that man you just mentioned? What's going on?"
Chen Xuemei struggled to throw herself forward, her voice shrill and piercing: "No, she's talking nonsense, don't believe her. This bitch is just trying to get revenge on us, so she's saying this on purpose. Shaojie has already been killed by her. Haibo, do you still want to believe her?"
Jiang Haibo didn't even look at Chen Xuemei. He was extremely angry and stared at Jiang Xi: "I don't want her to say anything. Tell me what's going on."
Jiang Xi did not sympathize with Jiang Haibo at all. This selfish man abandoned her and her daughter in order to have a so-called son, indirectly ruining Wu Yaqin's life. If it were not for his rebirth, her and her life would also be ruined. Now it was time for Jiang Haibo to taste the consequences.
Jiang Xi blew a sigh of relief and revealed the truth without hesitation: "Jiang Haibo, the son you've been waiting for your whole life is a fake. You are a cuckold. That man is Chen Xuemei's lover, and Jiang Shaojie is that man's child. He was there at the time and saw Chen Xuemei and that man entangled. He guessed the truth of the matter. Jiang Shaojie couldn't accept it, so he jumped into the river and committed suicide."
Jiang Xi's voice was not loud, but every word he said seemed to torture Jiang Haibo and Chen Xuemei to death.
Chen Xuemei leaned against the wall with her eyes wide open, going crazy. "Impossible, how could Shaojie know? Impossible, it's you, you're playing tricks, it must be you, you forced Shaojie to death, you damn bitch!"
Jiang Haibo's eyes were red and his fists were clenched. "Shut up! I want to know whether the situation is as Jiang Xi said!"
Jiang Haibo's face was filled with anger as he stared straight at Chen Xuemei, as if if Chen Xuemei dared to lie, Jiang Haibo would immediately explode and eat her alive.
Facing such an angry Jiang Haibo, Chen Xuemei hesitated for a moment, but this moment was caught by Jiang Haibo, who asked harshly: "You bitch! Are you going to tell me now or not?"
Chen Xuemei sobbed and cried, "She's lying. It's not me. I didn't do that!"
Chen Xuemei had already started to speak incoherently, so Jiang Haibo slapped her directly, and immediately the left side of Chen Xuemei's face began to swell up. "Chen Xuemei, tell me clearly! Whose son is Jiang Shaojie!"
The veins on Jiang Haibo's neck bulged as if they would explode in the next second. Jiang Haibo fell into extreme anger. He had devoted all his efforts to cultivating Jiang Shaojie for so many years because Jiang Shaojie was his child, the son he had been longing for.
But he never expected the child to die. Jiang Haibo was already heartbroken, but now he discovered that Jiang Shaojie wasn't his child? What was the point of all his years of hard work? What was his grief?
He divorced Wu Yaqin for Jiang Shaojie. Over the years, he worked hard to pave the way for Jiang Shaojie and was proud of his son Jiang Shaojie. He did so many things for Jiang Shaojie, but now it's all in vain. It was all a scam!
Facing the furious Jiang Haibo, Chen Xuemei didn't dare to say a word. There was no need to think too much about Chen Xuemei's reaction. She looked completely guilty. Jiang Haibo was struck by lightning and laughed in anger: "Chen Xuemei, I have treated you well over the years, but you dared to lie to me, haha."
Jiang Haibo grabbed Chen Xuemei's collar and pushed her against the wall. With a bang, Chen Xuemei hit the wall behind her and groaned in pain.
Jiang Haibo's eyes burned with anger: "Today I will make you die with that bastard!"
Jiang Qiaohe had been petrified, but finally woke up as if from a dream. She went up and tried to hold Jiang Haibo back: "Dad, don't listen to Jiang Xi's nonsense. She hates our family and she just wants to see us fight. Don't listen to her."
Jiang Haibo pushed Jiang Qiaohe to the ground and said, "Get out of here! I don't even know if you're mine! Don't call me dad! You're all bastards!"
Jiang Qiaohe was pushed to the ground. She ignored the pain in her wrist and murmured, "Dad, why did you say that?" Jiang Qiaohe was hit and lay on the ground motionless.
Chen Xuemei began to cry: "Haibo, don't believe her. Oh my God, why did you do this to me? You took my son away and made me suffer so much. Shaojie, please come back. Your father wants to beat me to death now. If you were still here, how could I have endured such injustice! Shaojie!"
Jiang Haibo was furious: "Shut up right there! There will be no Jiang Shaojie in the Jiang family from now on. As for the two of you, pack up and get out right now!"
Chen Xuemei couldn't believe it and rushed over to fight with Jiang Haibo. "Jiang Haibo, you are not a human being. I have worked hard for the family for so many years and gave birth to your children, and now you have ended up like this. Jiang Haibo, you coward who beats your wife, I will report you to your company and let everyone see what a heartless person you are!"
Chen Xuemei had very long nails, and she scratched Jiang Haibo's face, leaving a long bloody mark. Jiang Haibo was not to be outdone, and grabbed Chen Xuemei's hair and was about to slam her against the wall.
The police quickly stopped the two men: "In the police station! What are you doing? You want to fight? If you cause trouble here again, we will arrest you all!"
Jiang Haibo looked at Chen Xuemei with hatred, his eyes were self-evident, I'll settle the score with you when I get back. Chen Xuemei trembled and her eyes were panicked. Jiang Qiaohe seemed to be crazy. Her happy family, excellent brother, loving father, and gentle mother were all gone in one day.
Qi Yu'an helped Jiang Xi out of the police station and asked with concern, "Are you really okay?"
The curses Jiang Haibo and Chen Xuemei had just hurled at Jiang Xi were still fresh in Qi Yu'an's mind. Qi Yu'an had used up almost all of his strength to stay rational and not go up and punch those two men. Those two men were still insulting Jiang Xi so unscrupulously in the police station. Jiang Xi had suffered so much injustice in the past that Qi Yu'an wished he could tie up Jiang Haibo and Chen Xuemei and beat them up.
Jiang Xi shook his head: "Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that some things seem to have really come to an end. I can't quite explain it, but I feel a lot more relieved."
Jiang Xi didn't intend to tell Qi Yu'an about her past life. There was a life between her and Jiang Shaojie, and now that Jiang Shaojie is gone, the matter is over.
The future is brand new. The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the lawn, and the warmth hits her body. The faint scent of soap from Qi Yu'an's body comes to her nose. Jiang Xi then feels a sense of reality. She is reborn, has a new life, and has said goodbye to the past completely.
Qi Yu'an and Jiang Xi returned to Wu Ji Zao Lu together. Wu Yaqin, Chen Xiu Lian, Xie Xiaoju and others were waiting anxiously in the store.
Xie Xiaoju frowned: "Why hasn't Jiang Xi come back yet? Didn't they say they had found him? How come it's been so long and I haven't seen him?"
Liu Hongxia was also very anxious and paced back and forth at the door.
Kunzi comforted him, "They must be taking a statement now. Anyway, the police have already notified us. Jiang Xi is safe now, don't worry."
Liu Hongxia saw Jiang Xi and shouted to the door, "Jiang Xi is back!"
Everyone hurried to the door and saw Jiang Xi. Wu Yaqin rushed over and said, "Are you okay? You're finally back!"
Wu Yaqin hugged Jiang Xi tightly. Her daughter suffered. Jiang Xi patted Wu Yaqin's back and comforted her: "Mom, I'm fine. Don't worry. I'm not hurt at all. Instead, those who hurt me are punished."
Wu Yaqin hugged Jiang Xi: "I don't care about others, I only care about you."
Wu Yaqin checked carefully and found that Jiang Xi was really not injured, so she let her go.
Jiang Xi looked at the people standing behind him. Xie Xiaoju and Liu Hongxia had red eyes, obviously they had just cried. Xiufen's eyes were swollen. Seeing her, she flinched: "Jiang Xi, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have gone to the bathroom and put you in danger. Wuuwuwu!"
Xiufen really blamed herself. Jiang Xi had helped her so much, taking her to a big city, opening a chicken farm with her, and letting her learn new knowledge.
But she lost Jiang Xi because she was going to the toilet. Xiufen hadn't slept for the past two days. She was so scared. If something happened to Jiang Xi, Xiufen would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Jiang Xi said softly: "It's none of your business, don't blame yourself."
Xiufen is an honest person. It would be terrible if this incident left a shadow on her and she was afraid to go to the toilet in the future.
Jiang Xi repeatedly explained: "I was lax at the time, so the bad guys took advantage of me, but now everything is fine, don't worry."
Xie Xiaoju and a few others were still looking at Jiang Xi with tears in their eyes. Xie Xiaoju burst into tears: "Jiang Xi, it's so great that you can come back. We were so worried." The others also nodded.
Jiang Xi burst out laughing: "Our Wuji Zaoluo restaurant is about to be drowned by tears. Are we still going to do business? Stop crying, your eyes are like rabbits. If someone doesn't know, they would think something is wrong with our store."
Xie Xiaoju wiped her tears and scolded: "You are still joking at this time."
Jiang Xi looked around at the people around her. Needless to say, Xie Xiaoju and the others were looking at her with concern. Wu Yaqin and Chen Xiulian were secretly wiping their tears. Niu'er and Ya'er were standing on either side of her, looking at her seriously. Kunzi and Liu Daqiang also looked concerned. Wu Youli, Wu Yaoguo and Zhou Jiangang were all breathless, and it was obvious that they rushed over immediately after hearing the news.
Jiang Xi felt a warm feeling in his heart and said carefully, "Thank you, thank you so much."
Because of his rebirth, Jiang Xi has so much. These people really care about him. At this moment, Jiang Xi is grateful for what he has and wants to treasure these things carefully.
Xie Xiaoju sobbed, "Jiang Xi, why are you doing this? You make me want to cry again!" After she finished speaking, she really burst into tears. Xie Xiaoju's emotions infected everyone. Liu Hongxia also shed tears silently, and so did Xiufen. Even Nuoer and Yaer, who had not cried originally, began to cry softly.
Jiang Xi quickly raised his hands in surrender: "Oh, oh, I won't say anything more, let's get back to business, I really can't cry anymore, if I keep crying, our store will be flooded."
Jiang Xi coaxed the crying girls for a long time before he calmed them down. Qi Yuan said, "You're tired too. Go upstairs and take a shower and rest for a while."
Wu Yaqin also immediately said: "Yes, you have suffered a lot these days. Take a rest and stop worrying about everyone."
Jiang Xi nodded and said with a smile, "I'll go upstairs then. You guys should hurry up and get busy with your own things. We need to open the store and run the chicken farm. Brother Zhou, Xiufen, and Brother Liu, you two should go back to the chicken farm and don't stay here."
Liu Daqiang immediately sighed. These past few days, his wife would start crying whenever they had a disagreement, and he couldn't comfort her no matter how hard he tried. Now that Jiang Xi was finally back, he could finally have a good sleep with his wife today.
Everyone dispersed. Jiang Xi took a nice bath, returned to the familiar environment, lay on the familiar bed, and fell into a peaceful sleep.
He slept for more than ten hours, and when Jiang Xi opened his eyes it was already noon the next day.
Jiang Xi suddenly flipped over from the bed. Wu Yaqin was helping her fold clothes. Seeing Jiang Xi wake up, she quickly said, "Why don't you sleep anymore? Sleep a little longer."
Jiang Xi turned his neck and said, "I'm not going to sleep anymore. Sleeping for too long is not good. Mom, what time is it?"
Wu Yaqin took out the watch from the box. This was specially bought by Jiang Xi. Wu Yaqin was reluctant to wear it and kept it in the box. She would only take it out when she needed to check the time: "It's almost time."
Jiang Xi sat up suddenly: "It's almost one o'clock!" She put on her clothes hurriedly: "I have to go to the chicken farm!" Before Wu Yaqin could say anything, Jiang Xi trotted downstairs.
Xie Xiaoju and Liu Hongxia saw Jiang Xi and asked hurriedly: "Jiang Xi, where are you going? Aren't you going to rest?"
Jiang Xi said without even turning his head: "I'm going to the chicken farm to take a look!"
Xie Xiaoju and Liu Hongxia smiled at each other. Jiang Xi is back, still as focused on making money and full of energy. It’s great!
Jiang Xi rushed to the chicken farm. The factory building had been built and the finishing work was now being done.
Xiufen saw Jiang Xi coming and hurried over to him: "Why don't you rest for a while?"
Jiang Xi laughed: "Why are you all telling me to rest more? I want to lie down for a while. I am exhausted from lying down."
Liu Daqiang also came over: "Brother Zhou just left. The people he found are very reliable. Now we just need to clean up the construction waste, and the factory will be built."
Jiang Xi followed Liu Daqiang's gaze and saw that several factory buildings had been erected on the open space. The exterior had been painted and looked very real.
Jiang Xi said, "We also need to enclose an additional piece of land as a fence. The fence should be at least two meters high and used as a playground for the chickens."
Because Jiang Xi's requirement for raising chickens is to raise chickens with firm and delicious meat, he adopts the traditional method of raising free-range chickens, which requires clearing out a separate piece of land for the chickens to move freely.
Liu Daqiang chuckled, "We've already fenced off a piece of land. Brother Zhou has gone to get the materials. Xiufen has been urging us to do this, too. I've got it all in mind."
Now that everything has been arranged, Jiang Xi feels relieved. Her subordinates are becoming more and more considerate, and she doesn't have to worry about every little detail.
Jiang Xi took a look around the factory and was very satisfied. This was the first factory built by Wu Ji Zao Lu, and it was of great significance.
Jiang Xi said, "We'll clean all of this up today. Once the materials arrive, we'll put up a fence and open the chicken farm!"
