His carefree smile returned, roguish and nonchalant, and he casually said, "So the best way is to make sure you never have the chance to appear again."
Never again? Then... then death? Only the dead will never appear before Xie Li.
Shen Erzhu was utterly terrified, staring in horror at the person on the other side of the screen, his mouth agape, "You...you can't do this, murder is illegal..."
"What are you thinking, accusing me of murder in front of the police?" Shen Tiezhu chuckled, even crossing his legs. "What I mean is, you're going to spend the rest of your life in jail! Your release this time must have been arranged by someone, tsk tsk, that's illegal."
Shen Erzhu was so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
Two police officers detained him and were about to leave. They had already confirmed with the doctor that he had met the discharge criteria long ago, and he was still pretending to be a patient.
Shen Tiezhu thanked the police with a smile before turning the camera to his wife.
"Lili." The woman looked at Xie Li gently. "My illness is cured, completely cured. You don't need to worry about me anymore."
As a doctor, Xie Li had already recognized her and could tell that she was still recovering. "Mom, I know you are still weak and need to take good care of yourself."
The woman smiled and said, "Yes, thanks to your sweet potatoes, Mom is eating them every day now."
The Sacred Heart Fruit has the miraculous effect of cleansing the marrow and tendons, and reshaping the bones and muscles. Previously, her physical condition prevented her from using or absorbing the Sacred Heart Fruit, but now that she has been detoxified and her various functions have been restored, she can use the Sacred Heart Fruit to repair her meridians.
"That's good, Mom. I'm going to take the college entrance exam soon too. I'm sure I'll get into Beijing University. Then... will I be able to see you?" she asked cautiously.
The woman couldn't help but tear up again. "Silly child, of course you can! I'll be there to see you soon. I even want to personally take you to the college entrance exam!"
It was originally just an excuse that Shen Tiezhu casually mentioned, hoping that the child could focus his attention elsewhere and return to normal society.
Unexpectedly, she was in such a hurry that she skipped two grades just to keep this promise.
Fortunately, her illness was cured, and what was originally thought to be three years of light and shadow suddenly shortened to one year. Everything is moving in a positive direction.
The two talked for a while, but since the other person was still recovering from illness, Xie Li reluctantly hung up the video call.
——
On the other hand, after the video call ended.
The man smiled and reached out to take the tablet from the woman's hand. "Alright, you really should rest now."
This is a villa located in Antarctica, with a constant indoor temperature and a blanket of white snow outside.
To help the residents alleviate boredom, the place was built to be very luxurious and grand, but the woman still felt that it couldn't compare to that little wooden cabin in the mountains.
As she stood up, she said, "Lili has finally moved on. I was really worried that she would do something foolish because of me..."
She paused, then continued, "Luo Zhihan is actually a pretty good kid, gentle, tolerant, and very strong. Ours is a bit slow, but the good thing is that he's naturally optimistic..."
The couple suddenly stopped and looked at each other.
"Oh dear, what a mess!" Shen Tiezhu laughed heartlessly. "I forgot to introduce Lili's brother to her."
The woman gave him a light, reproachful glare, while also looking somewhat worried.
The couple came from extraordinary backgrounds and lived in extremely complicated circumstances.
