Chapter 706: Sister-in-law, you know me (10)
Xia Chenglin noticed that tears were streaming down Xia Jinzhi’s face, so he handed her a tissue.
Xia Jinzhi took the tissue and kept crying softly.
Xia Chenglin was helpless. He asked,” So, what do you plan to do now that you’re in D City?”
Xia Jinzhi put down the tissue and said through gritted teeth,” My daughter died so tragically, but Jing Muchen is living so happily with his wife and child. And Li Muchen, his wife is pregnant now, and the two brothers are enjoying the happiness of a family. But what about my daughter? I’m not feeling right. I must go to the Reeves family and seek justice!”
“Jin Zhi.” Xia Chenglin felt a little uneasy.” Don’t be rash. With just this letter, it’s hard to be sure that this is what you think it is. How about this? If you really want to get to the bottom of it, I’ll find some time to invite the two brothers of Family Jing over. We can have an honest talk. I believe…”
“Brother.” Xia Jinzhi laughed coldly.” You’re too naive. You think too highly of people. Did you know? When I was in Shanghai that day, Jing Muchen actually warned me to my face that I was not allowed to harass his family again! Hmph, does he think I’m afraid of him?
I’m an old woman over fifty years old. At most, I’ll fight him to the death!”
“Jinzhi, don’t be rash.”The more Xia Chenglin listened, the more uneasy he became. He comforted her,” I think you should discuss this with Wanqian. After all, Xiwen is his daughter. Even if you want to do something, you should tell him first, right?”
“Don’t mention him!” Xia Jinzhi spat.” After the confrontation with Jing Muchen that day, he actually said that he trusted Jing Muchen and even advised me to let go of the past. He said that Xiwen was no longer around and there was no point in pursuing the past. But I told him that I couldn’t do it! I have to seek justice from Li Muchen again. If the two brothers continue to fool me, I will go straight to his wife. I won’t let him have it easy!”
“Xi Wen has been gone for more than five years. Even if you can really get justice for her this time, what will the final result be? She had already left! Dead people can’t be revived! There’s nothing more worth cherishing than the people and life you have now. Jinzhi, listen to your brother’s advice and cherish the people in front of you.”
Xia Jinzhi’s tears had already dried. She had made a decision in her heart, but she nodded gently.” Big Brother, don’t worry. I know what to do.”
“..”Xia Chenglin looked at Xia Jinzhi and shook his head helplessly.
The next afternoon, Xia Jinzhi arrived at the meeting place with Li Muchen. It was a private clubhouse near the Li Corporation.
In a private room, Li Muchen elegantly poured her a cup of Longjing tea and placed it in front of her.
Xia Jinzhi snorted coldly.” I didn’t come all the way from Shanghai to drink tea with you.”
She took out the red envelope and said,” I came here today to show you this.”
As he spoke, he pushed the envelope over from the table.
Li Muchen reached out to take the envelope back. After opening it, he unfolded the letter inside and took a few glances before folding it back.
“What’s wrong? You don’t dare to look?” Xia Jinzhi raised her eyebrows and asked.
Li Muchen’s lips curled up slightly.” We’ve already seen it. What’s there to see?””
“..”Xia Jinzhi was slightly surprised.” So, you knew about this long ago.. Then why did you marry Xi Wen back then? Did you have an affair with your younger brother, Jing Muchen? For the sake of the Xia family, that investment, right?”
