Chapter 141: Questioning

~8 min read 1,499 words

"My god, I was wondering why Wang Lingling disappeared; it turns out she was sold by Zhang Jun! Damn him!"

"This heartless man deserves to be shot; he even killed Wang Lingling's husband and kidnapped and harmed Su Qingyue!"

"Is Su Qianqian really crazy? She was involved in the kidnapping too, but she was sentenced to five years and sent to a farm for labor reform!"

"It doesn't seem fake. She was crying and laughing in the village that day, no different from a lunatic!"

"Why only five years? That shouldn't be..."

Everyone pointed at the bulletin board. People who didn't know the truth never expected Zhang Jun and Su Qianqian to be so insane.

"Only five years! Why! I think she's just pretending to be crazy!" Su Qingxi returned to the health center after reading the bulletin, her eyes red with anger.

She clenched her fists, looking like she wanted to go argue.

"Alright, Qingxi, the water in this matter is very deep. Your brother-in-law is a Regimental Commander and couldn't directly intervene."

Li Zilan comforted her, "Keep your voice down. When your sister wakes up, we'll go back to the village. It's good that Su Qianqian is sent to the farm for labor reform; the village will have one less scourge!"

Su Qingyue turned her body and opened her eyes.

She had heard their conversation word for word.

No wonder A Ye had been exhausted and filled with grievances and anger lately. It seemed the foster family hadn't put in little effort.

Su Weixin was a Staff Officer; logically, his hand couldn't reach that far. It seemed the Shen family had also made a move.

Su Qingyue sighed deeply. She was too tired; she only hoped never to see Su Qianqian again in this life and to live her own little life well.

Just as she was thinking this, Pei Huaiye returned.

His handsome brows were mixed with unwillingness and anger, but the moment his gaze fell on Su Qingyue, it all turned into tenderness.

Su Qingyue turned over and sat up slowly, and Pei Huaiye hurried forward to support his wife.

"Hungry? Shall I ask the nurse to bring food?"

Su Qingyue shook her head, "Should the stitches on my head be removed?"

"Hmm, I told the doctor; they'll be here in a moment."

At this moment, the door was knocked. Pei Huaiye thought the doctor had come and let them in.

But he didn't expect it to be the Su family from the Capital.

Su Qingyue looked up. Her foster father, foster mother, and two older brothers had all come. Su Yuan was holding fruit and malted milk powder, his face full of guilt and pain.

Pei Huaiye's eyes turned cold instantly, and he stood up to block in front of Su Qingyue, "What are you

Li Zilan and Su Qingxi also hurriedly picked up the two nursing babies, looking at them with a guarded expression.

"We came to see Qingyue," Song Qingyan said, wiping away her tears.

"That is completely unnecessary!"

Pei Huaiye's gaze was mocking, his tone extremely cold.

"Your own daughter almost killed the three of them—mother and children! You still have the nerve to come here! Get out, all of you!"

"Pei Huaiye, how can you speak like that! No matter what, my mother is still Qingyue's adoptive mother!"

Over these past few days, because of Su Qianqian's situation, Song Qingyan had lost over ten pounds and often stayed awake all night; she looked completely haggard.

Su Qingyue knew that this time, the break had to be clean.

Then it would be better to make everything clear once and for all.

She tugged on Pei Huaiye's sleeve, and he had to step aside, finally revealing Su Qingyue on the hospital bed.

"Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Second Brother, this is the last time I will ever call you that."

As soon as Su Qingyue spoke, Su Yuan had a bad premonition.

"Because of jealousy, Su Qianqian kidnapped me to a cave, beat me, and even wanted the wild beasts to eat me. If A Ye hadn't arrived in time, I would no longer be in this world."

"I know you pulled strings so that she, who should have received the death penalty, was only sentenced to five years..."

When Su Qingyue said this, her eyes were already red.

"After all, you are the real family... The five years Su Qianqian owes me can never be repaid! But I know that with you around, you will always protect her, even if she has committed heinous crimes."

"As for the seventeen years of upbringing, I have long since repaid it!"

Su Qingyue's tone was firm, her bloodshot eyes brimming with tears.

"From now on, I am no longer your adopted daughter! Please do not come looking for me again, do not have any connection with me! And do not mention the name of that criminal, Su Qianqian, in front of me!"

She said the last sentence through gritted teeth, and her tears could no longer be held back, rolling down.

"Qingyue! You really have changed!"

Song Qingyan said, shaking her head while crying.

"After you returned to the village, you were top-notch in everything. Not only did you not guide Qianqian, but you compared yourself to her in everything, making her the laughingstock of the whole village."

"She didn't have as happy a life as you growing up, didn't eat well, and didn't study much, let alone have other hobbies. She did indeed commit a mistake she shouldn't have, but Qingyue, are you really not responsible at all?!"

"Mom! How can you say that?!"

"Get out!"

Su Yuan and Pei Huaiye spoke at the same time.

Su Yuan immediately supported Song Qingyan to leave, but Su Weixin blocked them.

"I had someone investigate. After your wedding, Qianqian did intend to make up with you and even took the initiative to be friendly with you several times, but you didn't appreciate it. That's fine, but you opened a factory and were living well; why didn't you take the initiative to give her a job quota to appease her?"

In Su Weixin's view, these small matters were completely not worth fussing over!

Pei Huaiye stepped right in front of Su Weixin; the majesty and anger he radiated made even the experienced Staff Officer Su secretly startled.

"Why should she be given a job quota?! Are you getting too big for your boots? You still come here to pick faults?"

Pei Huaiye was so angry his eyes widened, his fists clenched tightly as he resisted the urge to hit someone.

"Back in the Capital, as soon as Su Qianqian returned home, she harbored the idea of harming Qingyue and put it into action. She drugged Qingyue and I saved her, otherwise..."

"I eventually handed this matter over to the Capital Base to investigate. If Staff Officer Su hadn't obstructed it, I'm afraid Su Qianqian would have been arrested long ago!"

Su Weixin's heart tightened. A subordinate had indeed mentioned a case affecting the Su family's reputation, and he had let it be erased without asking carefully, never thinking it was this...

Song Qingyan understood everything after one look at her husband's expression, and Su Yuan felt even more heartbroken; he hadn't expected Su Qianqian to be this wicked!

But his ability was too weak, and he couldn't stop his father at all.

"Just after arriving in Xichuan, the cornfield incident happened. You all know about this, and it was still downplayed!"

"Later, Su Qianqian snatched Qingyue's fiancé, and you were still biased toward Su Qianqian, with her only punishment being no more money!"

"She lost her job at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative because she was stupid. When Qingyue's business was booming, she tricked Zhang Jun into harming Qingyue. During that landslide, if I hadn't arrived in time, Qingyue would have been gone long ago, and she was pregnant at the time..."

"Under these circumstances, how dare you demand that my Qingyue take the initiative to give your vicious biological daughter a job position!? On what grounds?!"

Pei Huaiye sternly questioned Song Qingyan and Su Weixin.

"When Qingyue was caught in the cave, she was almost due. Su Qianqian not only slapped her dozens of times but also held her head down and smashed it against the rocks!"

"To hide the evidence of her crime, she even used Qingyue's fresh blood to lure a wild wolf. When I arrived, Qingyue was lying on the ground covered in blood, and she still had two children in her womb!"

Song Qingyan no longer dared to look at Su Qingyue; her eyes were already blurred with tears.

"Qingyue is afraid every night when she sleeps now, and the wound on her head hasn't fully healed yet."

"The process of every single one of Su Qianqian's crimes is written clearly. Have you read them?! If you had, how could you dare to come here and say a single word against Qingyue?!"
