Chapter 673: Life Is Like Chess, No Regrets After the Move

~4 min read 747 words

"Everyone is equal before the law."

Yu Dazhang glared at him:

"Just like when you saved your mother back then. Did you feel sorry for yourself at that time?"

Every family has its own troubles, and there are countless pitiable people, but that cannot be a reason to commit a crime.

Since he met Ye Zhiyu, this was the first time he had brought up the events of those years to his face.

For Ye Zhiyu, this was no less than a scar.

"I really didn't feel sorry for myself back then."

Ye Zhiyu not only didn't get angry, but answered with a serious expression:

"It was just difficult to choose. On one side was the law, on the other was filial piety. No matter how I chose, it would be wrong, so I just followed my heart."

"And I have never regretted it, not even once."

He paused, his expression becoming somewhat complex:

"Life is like a game of chess; once a move is made, there is no regret. People cannot be correct with every step."

"If it was wrong, it was wrong. I was very confused at that time. With my mindset and experience back then, I could only think of that method."

As he spoke the last words, Ye Zhiyu's expression turned somewhat bitter:

"Even if everything started over, I would still make the same choice. I will not blame the me of the past. If even I bully myself like this, who else would treat me well?"

Damn, he's making me feel a bit guilty... Yu Dazhang realized Ye Zhiyu's mindset was truly beyond comparison for an ordinary person.

If someone else had experienced Ye Zhiyu's life, they would probably have given up on themselves long ago.

Yet this person bravely charged into the courier sorting facility and faced life with strength.

"I'm sorry."

Yu Dazhang said with apology:

"The pressure of the case was a bit high, and I spoke without thinking, but I didn't mean to look down on you."

This point must be made clear; most rifts between people happen because they look down on each other.

"Look down on you?" Ye Zhiyu gave him a white-eyed glare:

"In my eyes, you just have good luck. That President Qu could take a liking to you, I even suspect she was hypnotized by someone."

The apology came too early... Yu Dazhang returned a white-eyed glare to him.

However, he still agreed with one sentence Ye Zhiyu had just said.

Life is like a game of chess; once a move is made, there is no regret.

Is taking revenge wrong?

No, it isn't.

But one must choose the correct way to take revenge.

For example, call the police to catch that human trafficker, provide clues, and let them face legal sanctions.

Since she didn't choose to do that, it shows Zhang Qian had already considered the consequences.

A path one chooses for oneself leaves nothing to complain about.

And after taking revenge, she chose to continue trafficking people; this is bringing misfortune upon oneself.

Is she pitiable?

Then are the fourteen deaf-mute girls who were trafficked not pitiable?

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Yu Dazhang then called another officer over, and the two entered the interrogation room.

By now, Zhang Qian showed signs of waking up; she was murmuring something softly in her mouth, indistinct like a sleep-talker.

The two were not in a hurry, so they sat opposite her and waited quietly.

About ten minutes later, Zhang Qian lifted her head and looked at the opposite side with sleepy eyes.

"You..."

She recalled for a moment, then remembered what the situation in front of her was.

Yu Dazhang looked at the Zhang Qian before him, and actually felt quite helpless.

Clearly a little lamb, she was given by a human trafficker to a pervert and was forced into becoming a wolf.

In this situation, even if it went to court, it was unknown how to judge it; at least Yu Dazhang couldn't imagine it.

But one thing was certain: Zhang Qian would definitely go to prison. Based on her experience, she probably wouldn't face execution, but the sentence should not be short.

"How do you feel now?"

Yu Dazhang asked in a gentle tone:

"Do you feel much lighter?"

He had just specifically checked Zhang Qian's left face and found no Palm print, which indicated that the slap Ye Zhiyu gave her had not been with full force.
