Chapter 242: You Are the Executioner
Just when the waiter brought the mutton pot, Yang Jing was probably afraid of seeing people, so she put the mask back on, and she took it off again after the waiter left.
"Sister Chang..."
"It's useless for you to cry with me, wipe your tears first!"
Chang An handed her a tissue, but she didn't answer, but only asked: "Can you go back and talk to your husband, just help Yao Kai, and say that he only moved 50,000 yuan..."
"That's it?" Chang An interrupted, "Do you know that embezzlement of 5,000 can be sentenced, and once the crime of embezzlement is established, the minimum sentence for embezzlement will be up to five years, and you are now 50,000, you actually told me?"
"I know, I know that embezzlement of 50,000 yuan is not a small amount, but for you it is just a matter of clothing, is it okay to treat it as a good deed? Sister Chang, Yao Kai really can't go to prison, he has always been arrogant, he used to be able to break someone's leg for someone else's angry words at school, if you let him go to prison, it is better to kill him directly!"
Chang An: "But it's not a simple matter of character, he made a mistake, broke the law, and is already an adult, so he should be responsible for his actions." ”
Yang Jing: "I know, I know what you said, but it has happened, and he also knows that it is wrong, if you and your husband are willing to see him, he can apologize to you in person, really, you can kneel..."
"No, no!" Chang An hurriedly interrupted, "What's more, this matter can't be solved by kneeling down and apologizing, the country has its own laws, and the company also has the company's system." ”
"That being said, I know it's all your husband's words. ”
"Xiao Yang!"
"Sister Chang, just when I beg you, will it be okay to beg you for the last time? Yao Kai is at fault, he is to blame, I know all this, but he is really just a thought difference, because this thought difference ruined the future, don't you think it's too miserable?"
yes, that sounds a bit miserable.
"But Xiao Yang, you have to know that many things in this world have to pay a price, and there must be a cause for effect, just like you..." Chang An looked at Yang Jing who was injured on her face, "If you make a mistake, you will still be punished, and you can't escape." ”
After Yang Jing listened, her eyes were cold, and she slowly leaned back.
"I don't run away from what I do, I suffer what I deserve, and I don't blame anyone. ”
"So why do you want to help him intercede in Yao Kai's matter?" Chang settled down, "Haven't you already broken up?"
"Yes, we broke up, but after all, we have been in a relationship for so many years. Yang Jing laughed at herself, "I know that you must look down on us now, poor and cheap and have no lower limit, but I am willing to try, just because I am the same kind of person as him, whether it is pity or sympathy, in short, I can't care about it." ”
Yang Jing has her own persistence and her own logic, but these have become very ridiculous in Chang An's eyes.
She didn't want to say another word, so she dismantled a pair of chopsticks.
"Eat first!"
Sister Yang didn't answer the chopsticks: "No!"
Chang An was not reluctant, he buried his head and drank a sip of mutton soup, sure enough, it was an Internet celebrity store, the soup base was thick, delicious and not fishy, even if there was a little smell, it was pressed just right by various spices.
She drank a few sips in a row before she came back to her senses slightly, and looked up to see that Yang Jing was still looking at her steadily.
"It tastes good, you really don't want to eat it?"
Sister Yang shook her head, and then asked, "Is it true that you won't change your mind no matter what I say today?"
Chang settled down, lowered his head and took another sip of mutton soup.
The stomach is warm, the body is warm, and it seems that the thinking is also warm.
"Xiao Yang, it's not a question of whether I change my mind or not, it's that Yao Kai made a mistake and broke the law, and it has nothing to do with me at all. ”
"But the case has not been filed yet, and the withdrawal of the lawsuit is only a matter of your husband's words, you just need to go back and plead with him, why are you not willing to help us with such a small matter?"
She seemed to have gotten into the tip of the bull's horns again, and the moral kidnapping made Chang An weak.
"Forget it. She thought it would be better for her to bow her head and drink the soup.
There was another long silence, and Chang An had already gone down most of the bowl of soup. Yang Jing sat opposite and didn't move, until Chang An raised her head to take the water cup after eating and sweating, and she suddenly spoke: "Okay, since you don't want to help me, it's hard to be reluctant, but I should still thank you for standing up and helping me yesterday." ”
Chang An: "No, in the end, I didn't actually help much. ”
Yang Jing didn't continue, staring at a certain place with empty eyes.
Chang An took a sip of water, his body was hotter, and he took off his coat.
The coat was thick, but the small restaurant was very crowded, and the chair had no backrest, so Chang An looked around and finally could only fold the coat carefully and put it on his lap.
On the other side, Yang Jing laughed very lightly.
Chang An looked up, her smile was still hanging on the corner of her mouth, and her palette-like face looked a little... Some infiltrate.
"Sister Chang, are you still going to wear the coat that I put back yesterday?"
Chang An's mind immediately came to mind the last time he saw the coat, the cuffs and hem were dirty, and there was a lot of blood on it.
"Don't. ”
"Don't want it?" Yang Jing said in a strange tone.
Chang An frowned, her coat was actually old, and it was a double-sided style, with cashmere on one side and suede on the other.
She shook her head: "Don't do it, it's hard to take care of it back." ”
"Really?" Yang Jing answered, "I actually want to wash it and bring it with me when I come to see you today, but I ran several dry cleaners from yesterday to morning, and none of them are willing to take it, they said that the coat can't be washed in ordinary dry cleaners, and it has to be sent to a special luxury maintenance center to deal with it, I don't know where this kind of place is, I checked the address of a store on the Internet, and went to see you again in the afternoon, do you know how much they want to charge me?"
Yang Jing lowered her fingers, "Two thousand, not including leather care after washing, so expensive, it's almost up to my monthly salary, I don't believe it, I scanned your clothes sign and found the official website, the coat is still on sale on the official website, and it will cost more than 70,000 yuan after the discount, Sister Chang, you just say don't want a coat of more than 70,000 yuan, why do you have to hold on to 50,000 public funds? Is Yao Kai not as good as you with a coat?"
Chang An was stunned by Yang Jing's words for a while.
She took the coat and Yao Kaibi, but this is not comparable at all.
"Xiao Yang, you have to understand that these are fundamentally two different things, you..."
"Okay, don't say it, I understand what you mean, I will find a way to solve the rest of the matter by myself, it's a big deal to find a reliable lawyer, at least to strive for a commutation of the sentence. ”
Yang Jing put the mask back on, wrapped her scarf firmly, and got up from the chair.
Chang An was full of powerlessness, not for Yang Jing or Yao Kai, but for herself, but she didn't want to say anything more, so she continued to drink soup.
Yang Jing stood for a while, knocked on the table and said, "Sister Chang, I will ask you one last question." ”
Chang An: "Well, you say!"
Yang Jing: "Do you think that principles are more important than life?"
Chang An: "What?"
Yang Jing: "You can look down on people like me and Yao Kai, and I admit that we do have no principles at all, but you keep talking about principles and responsibilities, that's because you have never been poor, you have never despaired, and you have never lived the days when we climbed up at the bottom every day. ”
Chang An's chopsticks shook his hand stiffened, "What do you mean?"
Yang Jing sneered: "What do I mean? Do you have to make it clear? Lao Luo told me that you forced a girl to death a few years ago, she just beat you on impulse, and it was not fatal, and the family also brought a lot of money and gifts to apologize in person, but you still insisted on suing her, thinking that it was the truth of principle, but in the end, you could not stay in school with a word of principle truth, and finally she could only choose to commit suicide by jumping off the building, you say, was it forced to death by you?"
The tone is aggressive.
Chang An squeezed his chopsticks tightly, "This matter has nothing to do with me." ”
Yang Jing: "Yes, it doesn't matter on the surface, but if you think about it yourself, isn't it rare that she wasn't forced to death by you?"
Chang An: "No, it's because she herself is too cowardly to bear the blow, and the police have already found out at that time that she is already suffering from depression and has always had suicidal tendencies." ”
Yang Jing: "Okay, even if what you say is true, she has suicidal tendencies, but it's just a 'tendency', and it doesn't necessarily mean that she will really die in the end, but your so-called truth principles have become the last straw, you personally pushed her downstairs, and you are the executioner from beginning to end!"
"No!" Chang An suddenly roared and shook his head, "It's not me, it's not me who pushes her down!"
"Is there a difference? Rich people like you have always prided themselves on having a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, but in the final analysis, you are just selfish and never take others seriously. What kind of mistake did that girl make, it's just that she just has a crush on your husband, and she doesn't really want to rob you, but you have to force her to die before you are willing. ”
"I didn't..."
Just like Yao Kai, you can easily throw away a 70,000-yuan coat, but you don't want to raise your noble hand and let people go, do you especially enjoy this kind of dignity that you can dominate others?"
Yang Jing bent down slightly, revealing only those eyes from head to toe, but the cold in her eyes was overwhelming.
"You probably think that I must be miserable to be beaten like this by Lao Luo's wife, yes, very miserable, but I have to bear it, I am not qualified to complain, because I did sleep with Lao Luo, but what about you? That girl didn't think about anything back then, she just had a crush on your husband, the little girl's unrealistic fantasies, you can't even tolerate this, holding high the banner of justice on your lips, in fact, you just want to force people to death, you got your wish, so young and life, Miss Chang, have you ever had nightmares over the years, have you ever felt a chill on your scalp, you really think how noble you are, in fact, you are not as strong as Lao Luo's wife to be so upright and vengeful!"
Chang An didn't remember when Yang Jing left or when he stepped out of his sight.
I only remember her last glance, Chang An saw a pale and helpless self in her cold pupils.
She admitted that Jin Xiaoxiao's incident would be a hurdle that she would not be able to get over for the rest of her life.
Reason, principle, or law, Jin Xiaoxiao's death may not be directly related to her from these alone, but when people think about problems, they always put their feelings first, and no matter how they calculate this account, they can only be calculated on Chang An's head.
What's more, it's still a life, a living life.
Chang An was cold, feeling that the mutton soup he had just drunk could no longer withstand the effect, and his stomach was fishy, and a fishy smell rushed up.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the table rang, and the screen was swiped, and a string of numbers was displayed.
"Hey..."
"Not at home?"
Zhou Yan's voice, Chang An remembered that he hadn't had time to lose his name after the phone was replaced.
She drank saliva to suppress the discomfort in her stomach and replied, "Eating out, you're going back?"
"Just got home, where are I'm going to pick you up?"
Chang An glanced at the crowded shop, the alley at the door was narrow and dirty.
"This place is a bit hard to find, I'll take a taxi back by myself, and I'll be there soon. ”
Chang An hung up the phone to pay, and arrived at the door in less than half an hour.
When I opened the door and went in, Zhou Wei was in the kitchen.
"Boiled noodles?" Chang An approached.
Zhou Wei responded and threw noodles into the pot, "The meeting has been held until now, and I haven't had time to eat dinner yet." ”
"Then you knew that I would bring you a takeout. ”
"Huh?" Zhou Wei suddenly turned around and leaned over to Chang An's side.
Chang An: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Wei: "What did you eat at night?"
Chang An: "Sheep soup!"
Zhou Wei: "No wonder there is a smell on my body." ”
Chang An hurriedly scooped up his sleeve and sniffed, "Does it smell bad?"
Zhou Wei: "What do you say?"
Chang An: "Then I'll take a shower first." ”
When Chang An finished taking a shower and went downstairs, Zhou Wei had already finished eating the noodles and the kitchen was cleaned up.
People are in the study, who are talking to on the phone.
“… When will the case be filed?"
"Okay, I'll hand it over to the legal department when I'm done, and I don't need you to follow it personally. ”
“…… I know that the legal side will take care of it, and it can... This has nothing to do with Chang An, you don't need to tell her..."
Chang An listened to a paragraph at the door, and heard that Zhou Wei should be talking to someone about Yao Kai, and when he hung up the phone, Chang An walked in.
"Xu Nan?"
Zhou Wei turned around, still holding his mobile phone in his hand, "Hmm." ”
"Talking about Yao Kai's case?"
Zhou Wei saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, and asked rhetorically, "What's wrong?"
Chang An clenched his fingers one by one, "Do you have to sue?"
"What?"
"Do you have to sue... Sue him for embezzlement?"
Zhou Wei seemed to see through her thoughts, and put his hand in his trouser pocket, "All relevant materials and records have been handed over to the police station, and now the evidence is conclusive, not a question of whether I want to sue or not, but Fadu." He said right.
Chang An let out an "oh".
In fact, intellectually speaking, she also knew that Zhou Wei was not wrong to do this, but...
"You came to me to ask about Yao Kai?"
"Huh?" Chang An's thoughts were suddenly interrupted and he was stunned.
Zhou Wei frowned, stared at her deeply, and asked, "You don't have anything else to say to me?"
"I..."
The phone tightened again.
To be honest, her mind is very chaotic now, not only chaotic, but also with a lot of helplessness and fear.
Zhou Wei understands the panic and uncertainty in her eyes as "hesitation", and hesitation means that she is not honest and honest.
"Forget it, if you're okay, rest early, I still have some work to do. ”
He walked back behind his desk and turned on his computer.
Chang An saw that he didn't seem to want to talk to him more, so he stood in place for a while, then turned around and went out.
