Chapter 258: Take the initiative to invite

In an instant, a tear fell like a midsummer shower.

Every tear seemed to be thrown to the ground, falling on the back of Shen Muzhi's hand, but it was more like smashing into his heart one by one.

"It's hard for me to understand. When he married my mother, didn't he also be happy with each other and vowed to stay together for the rest of his life? Why can he easily break his oath in the blink of an eye and watch his former lover being killed to death? Is it that even if you don't love it, you don't even have a little family affection, and you hate it so much that you have to kill each other? ”

For so many years, every time Li Ning thinks about this, he can't help but wonder if Li Chengling has regretted it for so many years, whether he has done that kind of thing that violates his conscience, can he still sleep with peace of mind, and every time he falls asleep, he won't be awakened by nightmares?

"I have asked him more than once if he has any regrets about what happened back then. But he said I was wrong, but it was an accident. Li Ning sneered, "Heh, it is estimated that after so many years, he himself will have to believe the lies he said, and only in this way can he be able to marry my mother's marriage and occupy his heart with peace of mind." ”

Shen Muzhi has been listening to the words, but from what Li Ning said, you can imagine the scene, a helpless little girl, ignorant and helpless, living in the lies prepared by adults, cautious and struggling to live like a year.

Li Ning sighed lightly and picked up the wine glass, only to suddenly remember that she had drunk it all just now.

"Can you pour me another glass?" Li Ning looked at Shen Muzhi and asked.

Shen Muzhi didn't say anything, just picked up the wine glass and got up, and personally poured a glass of wine for Li Ning. Only this time, he chose a lower degree.

Li Ning took the wine glass and took another big sip, but he choked a little because of the Tai Chi he drank. Shen Muzhi patted her back on the side, "This wine is nothing at first glance, but it has a lot of stamina, drink less." ”

Li Ning sneered, "Are you worried that I will drink too much and vomit all over your bed?" Not this time. ”

Li Ning, who was still full of anger just now, raised his head and squinted his eyes and smirked at Shen Muzhi.

Shen Muzhi sighed softly, "You're drunk." ”

Inevitably the situation of that day was repeated, Shen Muzhi snatched the wine glass from her hand despite Li Ning's objection, and put it a little farther away.

Li Ning still wanted to reach for it, but Shen Muzhi grabbed her two hands and stood up, "Go back to your room and sleep." ”

"I'm not sleepy yet. I'm not done yet. That person not only indirectly killed my mother and embezzled my mother's dowry property, but also brazenly forced me to marry you, just to please your Shen family, and wanted to take advantage of the Shen family! But I won't let him get his wish! ”

Shen Muzhi took Li Ning and took her back to his room. Because there were a few bottles of wine in Shen Muzhi's room, if Li Ning continued, he would definitely be as unconscious as last time.

But when she returned to the room, Li Ning was still unstable, and she pulled Shen Muzhi and kept talking, "You said that if I go to report the case now, it won't be too late?" Can we still bring the dog and the woman to justice? Now that I'm grown up, I'm not the ignorant little girl I was back then, and someone will finally believe what I say. ”

Although Li Ning's drunken footsteps were vain and his speech was a little incoherent, the words he said were drunken mantras.

"But... It's too late. Li Ning muttered helplessly.

Shen Muzhi's eyes dimmed slightly, because he knew that what Li Ning said was right.

The effective prosecution period for this kind of case is 20 years, but now more than 20 years have passed, and there is no evidence for what happened back then, and no one even reported the case, and the accident has long been closed.

Even with the development of technology today, it is difficult to trace the clues that are so far away.

It seemed that because of disappointment, Li Ning suddenly leaned into Shen Muzhi's arm, neither struggling nor noisy, like a doll who had suddenly been sucked of her life.

Shen Muzhi was a little distressed, picked her up and sent her back to the bed.

Li Ning also obediently lay on the bed without making any noise, but his eyebrows were still tightly locked, and his eyes looked at Shen Muzhi with some empty eyes.

Shen Muzhi sighed lightly, took off his shoes and coat for Li Ning, and Li Ning also obediently cooperated during the period, but still did not speak. It's like I've just said everything in one go, and there's nothing more to say.

"Rest early." Shen Muzhi covered the quilt and said in a warm voice.

Li Ning didn't respond, but when Shen Muzhi got up and wanted to leave, she suddenly grabbed Shen Muzhi's hand.

The small hand grabbed the big palm, and although it used a lot of strength, as long as Shen Muzhi twisted slightly, he could break away.

"How?" Shen Muzhi let Li Ning grab his hand and looked back and asked.

"Can you stay with me for a while, do nothing, just stay with me for a while. I don't want to be alone. Li Ning's voice was slightly pleading.

Shen Muzhi looked at Li Ning's eyes, her eyes were clear at the moment, but there was a sad look in her heart that was difficult to hide.

Suddenly, Shen Muzhi was a little unclear whether Li Ning was drunk or not.

"Okay?" Li Ning grabbed his hand and tightened slightly.

"Okay." Shen Muzhi bowed slightly, turned around and sat on the edge of the bed.

Seeing this, Li Ning showed a satisfied smile, squinting his eyes and pursing his red lips, and his smile was soft like a cute kitten.

And at this moment, Shen Muzhi could be sure that Li Ning was indeed drunk. Because if she were sober, she wouldn't have smiled like that.

"Sleep." Shen Muzhi pulled the quilt for her again, patted her shoulder gently, and said softly.

Li Ning really closed his eyes with peace of mind, leaned sideways and pillowed one hand under his face, and the other hand was still holding Shen Muzhi's hand and did not let go.

After a long while, Shen Muzhi noticed that the force in his hand was gradually lightening, and then Li Ning turned over and let go of his hand.

The moment the two separated their hands, Shen Muzhi suddenly felt empty, as if something was missing.

As before, Li Ning always fell asleep but was always unstable, frowning and turning over and over in bed, as if he was looking for something in a dream.

Seeing this, Shen Muzhi suddenly got up and left Li Ning's room.

Just after a while, Shen Muzhi took a quick shower, changed into comfortable home clothes, and returned to Li Ning's room with a tablet and mobile phone.

Li Ning was still churning unsteadily, half of the quilt had fallen on the carpet, and he was sleeping next to the bed, and he would fall off the bed as long as he turned it over again.

Shen Muzhi shook his head helplessly, stepped forward and lifted the quilt and moved Li Ning into the bed, and then he himself got on the bed, sat next to Li Ning by the head of the bed, and then covered the two of them with a quilt.
