Chapter 1481: No Compromise

~3 min read 493 words

Cao Jingui's family members looked at her in astonishment. Cao Jingui was usually kind to others and had never lost such a temper at anyone, let alone such a stranger, and a 'County Magistrate Zhang' at that. How could she be so angry?

Usually, the biggest temper Cao Jingui lost might have been when those ill-intentioned bachelors went to knock on her door at night.

Zhang Shiqing was somewhat embarrassed. He didn't expect Cao Jingui not to give him a chance to speak at all and to want to drive him away. He is a Deputy County Magistrate, after all. When had he ever received such treatment in Changshan County?

However, he knew that now was not the time to show off the prestige of a Deputy County Magistrate. If he wanted to seek the other party's forgiveness, he had to be humble today.

Zhang Shiqing forced a smile and said: "Comrade Cao Jingui, please don't be so excited. Today I came to apologize to you. Regarding the misfortune of Comrade He Xiaofeng, I also feel deep regret."

Cao Jingui said: "I don't need your apology. Between our two families, it's life or death!"

Zhang Shiqing looked at Su Xinghui and said to Cao Jingui again: "Comrade Cao Jingui, how about we find a place to talk alone?"

Cao Jingui shook her head decisively and then wanted to go straight upstairs.

Zhang Shiqing was anxious. He took a few quick steps and blocked Cao Jingui's path and said: "Comrade Cao Jingui, I am really very sincere. Let's talk alone. I know you are very excited now, but the dead cannot be brought back to life, and the living must look forward."

Just as Cao Jingui was about to say something else, Su Xinghui said: "Sister-in-law Jingui, since County Magistrate Zhang wants to talk to you alone, then you talk to him and see what he wants to say."

Su Xinghui also wanted to hear what kind of conditions Zhang Shiqing and the others could offer. They must be wanting to bribe Cao Jingui, let Cao Jingui forgive them, and then clear their sons of their crimes.

Blindly preventing them from contacting Cao Jingui or her family members wouldn't work. It would be better to speak clearly. And even if Cao Jingui forgave the other party, as long as the gang rape plot is determined, this becomes a public prosecution case, and a settlement letter cannot stop those few scumbags from going to court to accept trial.

No matter what, Su Xinghui also wanted to seek justice for the innocently and tragically dead He Xiaofeng. Just as he said, if this world doesn't even have justice and righteousness, then what hope does this society have?

Su Xinghui didn't consider himself a superman and couldn't cleanse all the filth in this world. However, if he could still endure such a tragedy happening right before his eyes, then he would have lived his rebirth in vain.
