Chapter 260: He'll definitely take care of it
Lu!?
Bai Lu actually knew about that?
Bai Jia opened her mouth in surprise, so shocked that she didn't know what to say.
She always thought that Jing Jiaren said that she saw Chu Muyan and Bai Lu enter the villa next door together, and she thought that Chu Muyan hid Bai Lu's gold house there, but it turned out to be house arrest!!
Sky......
After a long pause, she struggled to find her voice back, "Then, why didn't he tell me?" ”
Su Manlin choked in pain, "Because...... He wants to take care of this before you go back, so that you can stay with him in peace. And...... He traced the truth back then, and he came to the United States to see me, just to confirm with me that I didn't kill those two people! ”
"What?" Chu Muyan has already found out?
Bai Jia's heart tightened hard, feeling that she had never been so uncomfortable in her life as she was now, she really couldn't accept this fact, how could she accept that it was her mother who let her put the pot for her for so many years?
In the past ten years, she has been haunted by that nightmare every night, even if she fled to South Korea, she can't escape the deep guilt in her heart!
She has lived for so many years, and suddenly today, Su Manlin told her that she didn't kill people?
Scold...... It's ironic, really, it's so ironic!
"Xia Xia." Su Manlin looked at her sadly, "I really killed the person, if you really can't escape this time, you stay in the United States, let your mother go back alone, I will come to bear all the consequences for what I have done, I only hope you don't go back, don't!" ”
Bai Jia slowly lowered her head, her eyes looked at her fingers blankly, and her heart turned a thousand times, but there was no way at all.
Anyway, Su Manlin was protecting her, and she was able to choose to give up her own life for her back then......
"That's not right!" Bai Jia suddenly raised her head and looked at Su Manlin questioningly, "If you killed the person, why didn't you just turn yourself in to protect me, but begged Bai Hansheng?" And to protect me by exchanging conditions with him in a suicidal way? ”
This question finally asks the crux of the matter!
This is also what Su Manlin wants to say.
"Xia Xia." Su Manlin sighed sadly, "I told you about the Dongmen Su family before, do you remember?" ”
The name of the Su family in Dongmen, Bai Jia had some impressions in her memory, she nodded, "I remember, but I don't know much." Moreover, isn't Grandpa already kicked out by them, and they don't recognize you, what does this matter have to do with them? ”
Su Manlin shook her head, "You think things are simple. Since my name is Su Manlin, and I still bear the surname of the Su family, even if I have no connection with them now, I can ...... They would never tolerate such a thing in their family. ”
Speaking of the terrifying family, Su Manlin looked sad, "The Dongmen Su family is huge, if I surrender at the beginning, even if I am punished by the law, they will not let you go." ”
She paused, "They are a huge family, and there were many people who were unwilling to obey their control and broke away from them, but as long as they committed crimes, they would still be caught back, I remember, I have a cousin, his father is my cousin's uncle, my cousin has a huge debt because of gambling money outside, not only did they not help him, but they also sent him to those creditors." ”
When it came to this incident, Su Manlin still felt shocked, "You don't know, my cousin was unable to repay the money at the time, and wanted to escape, and was broken by those people's legs, and finally thrown into the slum to fend for himself, and my cousin, he was taken back by the Dongmen Su family, ostensibly to take in, but in fact he lived a life that was worse than death inside, and within two years, my cousin was driven crazy by them, and he is still in a mental hospital......
Sky......
What did Bai Jia hear?
How can there be such a cruel family in this world?
If you don't help, forget it, and even fall into the ground?
Don't even spare a child?
"Mom......"
At this moment, Bai Jia finally understood what Su Manlin had done for herself.
Over the years, she must have lived in guilt, not only wearing shackles and suffering her life, but also protecting her in the dark......
Bai Jia hugged Su Manlin sadly, "I know, I know everything, I promise you, I won't go back, I'll stay in the United States, stay by your side and accompany you, okay?" ”
Su Manlin nodded with satisfaction, "Good, there are many things in this world that are not satisfactory, but you must be strong to live, you know?" ”
Walking out of Bai Jia's room, Su Manlin leaned against the wall at the door, crying sadly.
Escape is not a way, even if you escaped back then, you still can't escape now.
There is an old Chinese saying that if you can avoid the first day of the new year, you can't avoid the fifteenth.
Su Manlin feels that this is how she is now.
There must always be someone to take responsibility for the things of the year, she doesn't want Bai Jia to bear it, she can only settle Bai Jia in the United States, she quietly returns to Ancheng to surrender, and when Bai Jia knows these things, everything has already settled, even if Bai Jia is sad and sad, she can only watch.
"Godmother." Susan raised her hand and shook Su Manlin's arm vigorously, "I believe in Chu Muyan, he will definitely handle it." ”
Su Manlin shook her head in despair, and the corners of her lips curled bitterly, "Susan, promise me one thing, okay?" ”
Susan bit her lip and didn't say yes, she didn't say no.
Su Manlin closed her eyes with difficulty, and said with the last bit of strength in her body, "Help me take care of Bai Jia, no matter what happens, don't let her leave the United States!" ”
If you really want someone to take responsibility, this person is either Bai Jia or Su Manlin!
And when Su Manlin said this now, Susan understood her choice.
Although her heart hurts, although she is reluctant, Susan still nodded, "Well, I promise you!" ”
Bai Jia sat alone in the room and thought a lot......
Regardless of who the killer is, she and Su Manlin must have someone to stand up.
However, how could Bai Jia bear to let Su Manlin face the empty cell?
How could she let Su Manlin spend the rest of her life in such a place?
She slowly raised her head, looked at the ceiling above, and made a solemn decision in her heart!
In the past two days, the family has been immersed in an indescribable sadness.
Everyone was smiling, and everyone was silently wiping their tears.
It's not that no one believes Chu Muyan, it's just that ...... They can't escape the condemnation in their hearts, and they don't want to embarrass Chu Muyan anymore to do anything to undermine social order, after all, there are too many people they want to protect.
"Mom, come and try my cooking."
Su Manlin and Susan walked to the dining room together, looking at the table full of dishes, and the faces of both of them showed surprised expressions at the same time.
"What are you doing?" Bai Jia beckoned to them, "Come and sit down and eat, I've been doing it for a long time, you won't be so faceless." ”
Su Manlin felt that this meal was like a send-off banquet, could it be that Bai Jia already knew that she was going back to Ancheng to surrender?
"Godmother!" Susan tugged at Su Manlin's sleeve, "Go ahead." ”
Su Manlin slowly came back to her senses and smiled bitterly, "Okay, let's go and eat together." ”
Seeing them sit down, Bai Jia stood up, sandwiched a bowl full of dishes for them, and then picked up the red wine that had been awakened on the side, and poured it for the two of them respectively, "We haven't drunk wine for a long time, come, let's have a drink." ”
Looking at the rare smile on Bai Jia's face, Su Manlin felt that there was nothing happier in her life than this, she picked up the red wine without any guard, touched the glasses with them, put it to her lips, and slowly, drank the red wine in the cup one by one.
Bai Jia watched Su Manlin finish drinking, pretending to take a sip and putting the cup down, "Let's eat vegetables." ”
Susan wasn't in the mood for a drink, just took a small sip.
The three of them were eating with their own hearts.
"Mom, let me tell you, no matter what happens in the future, you must be strong, and don't make any more senseless sacrifices for me, okay?"
This sentence, in Su Manlin's ears, was Bai Jia persuading her not to rush back to Ancheng.
She had already made a decision in her heart, but she still maintained a faint smile on her face, comforting Bai Jia, "Okay, Mom promised you, but you also promised Mom, no matter what happens, then you must also be strong, don't be sad, don't be sad, okay?" ”
"Hehe......" Bai Jia swallowed the food in her mouth with a smile, and stretched out her hand to point to Su Manlin's wine glass, "I promised you that you can, but Mom, should you express it?" ”
Su Manlin glanced at her angrily, "You have a lot to do!" ”
Saying this, but she still picked up her wine glass, perhaps because she was leaving Baijia, she was sad in her heart, and wanted to temporarily numb herself with alcohol, she held the wine glass and drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.
Seeing that she finished drinking, Bai Jia nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, I promise you!" ”
Talking and talking, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and the three of them chatted happily and ate food as if they had forgotten all their troubles.
Su Manlin didn't know how many glasses she had drunk, she pinched the wine glass in one hand and propped it on the table with the other, her beautiful eyes were already half-narrowed, "Xia Xia, the dishes you cook are so delicious!" It's even better than what I make, and how good it would be if I could eat your own food every day? ”
Susan didn't drink much, but she still felt very dizzy, and even the figure of Bai Jia in front of her gradually became blurred, she raised her hand and knocked her head hard, muttering suspiciously, "What's going on today?" I didn't take a few sips, why did I feel drunk? ”
As soon as the words fell, Su Manlin, who was sitting next to her, fell on the table with a "bang".
Bai Jia saw that Su Manlin had already fallen down, she stretched out her hand sadly, and gently stroked Su Manlin's hair, "Mom, you must be well, you must live happily, you know?" ”
