Chapter 709: Explanation
Jiahui sprinted all the way like the time she had participated in the 100-meter sprint in school.
At the same time, the door of a black car parked at the side opened, and Song Ning rang out.
The two women hugged each other tightly.
At this moment, Xiao An said from behind, “Hurry up. Get into the car!”
Then, Song Ning quickly pulled Jiahui into the car.
The driver stepped on the accelerator and drove away immediately.
Jiahui threw herself into Song Ning’s arms and began to cry loudly.
Song Ning cried as well as she patted Jiahui’s voice and comforted Jiahui in a soothing voice.
When the two women returned home, Jiang Jin, who had been waiting anxiously, could barely contain her joy. She felt her heart ache when she saw Jiahui.
Song Ning brought a bowl of calming tonic for Jiahui to drink before she brought Jiahui to have a hot bath and settled Jiahui down.
After that, Jiahui fell into a deep sleep.
It was normal that Jiahui was disoriented when she woke up and momentarily forgot that she had been saved.
At this moment, Jiahui said softly, “Cheng Che, I’m safe.”
Jiahui could see that Cheng Che had lost a lot of weight and that he did not even bother to shave. He looked haggard and exhausted. She knew he had been working hard to find her.
Cheng Che’s eyes reddened. He rested his forehead against her as he said, “Yes, you’re safe. You’re finally safe. I’m sorry, Jiahui. I’ve implicated you.”
Jiahui looked at him through the tears in her eyes as she said, “I… I’ve caused you trouble. I was too careless and made you worry.”
Cheng Che hugged her again. “Silly, how did you cause me trouble? This is all clearly my fault. You had to suffer because of me.”
The couple hugged each other tightly, drawing strength from each other’s warmth. With this, they could reassure themselves that they were not dreaming.
When Jiahui finally calmed down, they finally sat down to talk.
At this moment, Jiahui seemed to recall something. She hurriedly said, “Mu Chen! Mu Chen didn’t leave with us!”
When Cheng Che saw Jiahui was about to stand up, he stopped her and said, “Brother Chen returned a long time ago. Don’t worry, don’t worry.”
Jiahui looked at Cheng Che with an uncertain expression for a moment before she asked, “Cheng Che, Mu Chen came to save me. What about you? Where did you go?”
At this time, she could finally think clearly.
Cheng Che smiled bitterly as he replied, “I was having a meal with the Yin family, including Guan Tang. I had to distract the Yin family to buy time for Brother Chen.”
Jiahui’s eyes burned with flames as she said, “Did you report this to the police? When I was imprisoned, I thought that I would definitely report her and let her rot in jail after I escaped.”
At this moment, the person Jiahui hated most in her life was Guan Tang.
Cheng Che stroked her head. His heart ached for her.
Jiahui asked again, “Did you report this to the police?”
Cheng Che said softly, “Jiahui, listen to me. We can’t report this to the police for the time being.”
Jiahui was stunned. “Why? Oh, is it because she’s your fiancee? She bullied me to this point, and yet, you’re unwilling to involve the police? Cheng Che…”
Cheng Che hurriedly grabbed Jiahui’s hand and said, “Jiahui, listen to me. It’s not like that. We can’t call the police. Technically, what we had done when we saved you is classified as breaking and entering.”
Jiahui did not react for a while, looking at Cheng Che in a daze.
Then, Cheng Che patiently explained to Jiahui how they had found her. Finally, he said, “Trust me. I won’t let her off the hook for hurting you like that. However, the police can’t solve this matter now. Believe me. I’ll make her life a living hell. We need to weigh the pros and cons.”
Jiahui thought about it for a moment before she said, “I understand. This means we are privately seeking revenge, right?”
Cheng Che nodded. “Yes.”
A smile bloomed on Jiahui’s face. “Very well. I was thinking that I won’t be able to vent my anger completely even if I hand her over to the police. At most, I could only hope for a harsher sentence. After listening to you, I think this is good as well. I don’t want to hold onto these grudges; I’d rather seek revenge to vent my anger.”
