Who else wouldn’t know how to do that?
43: Chapter 41: Holy Mother?
Who else wouldn’t know how to do that?
Rong Yan wore a face of mockery, “See, you’re not the Saint Father anymore, are you?
So, don’t talk without understanding the pain of standing.
Her lips curled up, “Actually, you should really thank me deep down, because with Xu Ke going in like that, you got rid of that viper easily.”
Ye Yu’s face went from green to white, having nothing to do with looking good at all.
He wanted to retort, but for some reason, his mouth just couldn’t open.
It took a long while before he squeezed out a sentence, “Don’t talk about her like that.
She was just confused for a moment…”
Before, Ye Yu was indeed annoyed with Xu Ke, because she turned out to be different from the kind-hearted girl he had in mind.
But when he learned that Xu Ke was truly arrested, he felt some sympathy for her.
After all, she was only twenty.
If she really was incarcerated, she would be sentenced, and that would ruin Xu Ke’s future.
For an unmarried young woman…
“Next year, could you consider…
Rong Yan snorted dismissively, still here to plead a case.
“Does Xu Ke know you’re pleading for her?
Tomorrow, I will exercise a bit of kindness, tire myself to go to town to see her, and convey this concern of yours.”
“In this way, she must be incredibly moved.
Having your love to hold onto in the dreary prison, she’ll live a bit happier.
Once she’s reformed and released, she’ll surely come looking for you.
And you, being so loving and kind, surely wouldn’t abandon her for another girl to marry, would you?”
Ye Yu’s face turned extremely ugly.
He never knew Rong Yan could be such a talker.
Rong Yan watched his expression, widened her eyes, “No way!
Are you saying you won’t wait for her release?
You are her pillar of strength, her hope for living.
Are you going to watch her die hopeless?”
“I’m just making her face the punishment she deserves.
Without rules, there is no square or circle.
If she did wrong, she must bear the consequences.
It’s for her own good, to prevent her from making bigger mistakes in the future.
Once out, she can start anew, live a new life.”
“But if you just abandon her like that, it’s akin to a heart-stabbing murder.
You are making it impossible for her to live on!
How could you be so cruel?”
Who doesn’t know how to do that?
It’s easy for you to speak without understanding the pain; I’ll make sure your back hurts even if you’re just standing…
At this moment, he wished he had never come out.
Rong Yan watched his expression, scoffed, and then, paying him no more attention, pushed her bicycle away with long strides.
Ye Yu engraved her mocking look deep into his heart, struggling to get over it for a long time.
Rong Yan arrived at the front door on her bicycle and saw Qin Yu peeking around.
She hopped off the bike, “What are you looking at?
Checking to see if I came back?”
Caught red-handed, Qin Yu couldn’t retract fast enough, “…The dumplings are ready, we can eat.”
Rong Yan, upon hearing this, couldn’t deny it; with all the back and forth she really was getting quite hungry.
Just as she was about to push her bicycle in, she saw Qin Yu hurry out, “…Sister-in-law, let me park the bike for you.”
He hadn’t even had the chance to touch the bicycle since she bought it.
Rong Yan looked at his somewhat short stature.
Although she said nothing, her eyes spoke volumes.
Do you think you can?
