Those thugs have been caught.
Because the evidence is conclusive, Aunt Fang, who attempted to hire someone to commit murder, will face three years in prison.
For a time, Shenchang became the subject of laughter and conversation on the streets and alleys.
While in prison, Aunt Fang sent a letter to Shen Chang through someone, expressing her wish to see him.
But he was worried that she was tarnishing his reputation and was too busy trying to distance himself from her to even go see her.
The letter she sent had not been answered for a long time, and Aunt Fang's heart grew completely cold.
...
Shen Tangning did go to see her once. The once shrewd and capable woman was pale and weak, leaning against the corner of the cell, her eyes lifeless, empty and unfocused.
She withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Liu Yifu beside her: "Thank you, Lord Liu. I just need to say a few words to my aunt."
The latter nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Then I'll go out and wait."
He turned around, his slender figure disappearing into the darkness in an instant, his footsteps fading into the distance.
Shen Tangning's gaze fell back on Aunt Fang. Seeing that there was no movement from inside, she took the initiative to speak: "I came here specifically to visit you, Aunt. Are you happy?"
As she thought of something, she slowly said, "By the way, Father has been so busy lately that he probably won't have time to see you, Aunt. I can pass on any messages you may have."
Aunt Fang pursed her lips tightly. What else could she and Shen Chang possibly talk about?
She has completely seen through the other party's true colors!
Shen Tangning admired the hatred in her eyes and said with pleasure, "It seems that Aunt has nothing to tell Father."
"Where is Zhou Erlang?" Aunt Fang asked abruptly.
The culprit who caused her to fall into this state, Aunt Fang wished she could tear him to pieces!
“Him,” Shen Tangning deliberately dragged out her words, “He’s incredibly capable. Not only did he escape unscathed from this whole mess, but he even managed to outmaneuver my father.”
The Dali Temple ordered Shen Chang to pay him a sum of money as compensation for his losses over the years. This man really made outrageous demands and showed no mercy whatsoever.
However, her father might not be able to come up with that much money right away.
Because of this matter, Shen Chang was so busy that he had no time to deal with Fang Shi.
Looking at the disheveled woman, she said with a sigh, "Auntie, you've been hunting geese all day, only to have your eyes pecked by the goose yourself, haven't you?"
Fang probably never dreamed that she would be defeated by someone like Zhou Erlang.
With a slight movement of her eyes, Aunt Fang raised her eyelids and looked over numbly, her voice hoarse: "You've come to see me make a fool of myself, haven't you?"
Shen Tangning smiled gently and sweetly, her lips curving slightly: "How could that be? Auntie thinks too badly of me. We are family after all, and Auntie has taken good care of me in the past. Now that you are here, I will definitely take care of my second sister for you in the future."
Aunt Fang's blank expression finally softened, and she glared at her warily: "What do you want to do?"
Her eyes took on a fierce glint, like a mother beast driven to the brink of despair, yet she still didn't forget to bare her claws at the hunter, gritting her teeth and saying each word clearly, "If you dare to touch her, I won't let you get away with it!"
She dares to say that because she has a certain amount of confidence.
Shen Tangning's eyes flickered, her tone meaningful: "Then we'll have to see how Auntie performs."
Aunt Fang shuddered, staring at her with a gloomy gaze without saying a word.
This is clearly a blatant threat!
After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.
"Shen Tangning!" Aunt Fang suddenly rushed to the prison cell door, gripping the pillar tightly, and shouted hoarsely, "If you dare to touch Xiwei, I won't let you get away with this!"
