Jih Cheng knew she wouldn’t call him on her own initiative.
That way she wouldn’t find out what he had been up to meanwhile.
“Why did you want to kill her?”
Why did he want to kill her?
There were too many reasons to kill her; that woman had only brought him misfortune, ever since he was young…
He didn’t want to lose the person he liked because of her.
So he wished she would disappear.
“I don’t want to lose you,” Jih Cheng said in a hushed voice.
“What does she have to do with this?” When did her matters start directly involving others?
“…”
Jih Cheng’s heart writhed in agony, and finally, he confessed.
As long as that woman was alive, he would never have peace.
“Are those words you said before also because of this?”
The boy nodded slightly.
At that time, he just wanted to leave her, not wanting to bring trouble upon her.
But he never expected that she would lock herself away…
Since it was like this, then he had no choice but to make the choice he did today.
Chuzheng ground her teeth.
In the end, all she could do was to hug the youth with stifled frustration.
–
Chuzheng didn’t complain about Jih Cheng. While in the hospital recovering for a few days, Jih Cheng took meticulous care of her, not even taking off his clothes.
He tried to create the impression that ‘I’m well-behaved, I’m obedient.’
But can someone who plans a murder be obedient?
So after returning, Jih Cheng was locked in the dark room once again.
Chuzheng arranged to meet with Mother Jih.
Mother Jih was terrified by Jih Cheng; she had been having nightmares for the past several days and looked considerably haggard.
“Is Chengcheng… Is Chengcheng okay?”
Mother Jih, looking at the young, indifferent girl opposite her, couldn’t help but speak out of breath.
That day, if she hadn’t appeared suddenly, she might have really met King Yama.
Chuzheng’s voice was emotionless, “Whether he’s okay or not, don’t you have any clue?”
“He… He wanted to kill me, I…”
Chuzheng interrupted her, “I can give you a sum of money, but you have to leave and never show your face to Jih Cheng again.”
Mother Jih: “…”
This scene doesn’t seem quite right, does it?
She is Jih Cheng’s mother!
“How much can you give me?” Mother Jih asked cautiously.
“How much do you want?”
Mother Jih extended five fingers.
Chuzheng glanced at her and transferred the money to one of Mother Jih’s bank accounts.
Mother Jih’s phone soon received a notification.
The transaction alert startled Mother Jih.
One zero, two zeros… seven zeros… fifty million!
She had intended only to ask for five million.
Yet she had transferred fifty million to her!
Was this young girl so wealthy?
Mother Jih’s thoughts suddenly became more active.
“Fifty million, within three days, I don’t want you to still be in the country. If you break this agreement, then your life…”
Chuzheng stood up, tapped the table three times with her fingertip, and left without a trace of emotion on her face.
Mother Jih’s scheming thoughts got stuck halfway, and a chill surged from the soles of her feet to her forehead, sweat soaking through her entire body.
Mother Jih dared not think any further.
