The Malevolent Female Villain Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 164

Jian Hongmei's eyes were blank, her whole body shivering, and she murmured, "Xiao Yongze, Song Jiaxi, how could it be them... this is impossible..."

"Madam? Do you know the two of them?"

Jian Hongmei came back to her senses and looked at Liu Lawyer, "They are Wenyao's half-brothers and sister-in-law."

Liu Lawyer was not aware of the events from nineteen years ago, but upon hearing this, he was instantly overjoyed.

Since they were Wenyao's brother and sister-in-law, if he went to ask them for help, they would definitely lend a hand to Mr. Xiao, right?

"Madam, please go and plead with Sean. You're the only one who can help now!"

However, Jian Hongmei turned deathly pale, "They've come back for revenge... Wenyao can't be saved..."

Liu Lawyer was confused, "Madam, what do you mean?"

With a pale face, Jian Hongmei haltingly recounted the feud between the two brothers from nineteen years ago to Liu Lawyer.

Liu Lawyer opened his mouth wide in disbelief.

He knew Xiao Wenyao was not a good person, but he never imagined that for the sake of power, he could do something so insanely cruel!

And he even didn't spare a baby who wasn't even a month old!

However, considering how Xiao Wenyao had been so ruthless to his own two children before, this didn't seem like a big deal.

It's just that Liu Lawyer now felt a little regretful for having boarded Xiao Wenyao's ship of villainy for the sake of personal gain.

He nervously swallowed and said to Jian Hongmei, "Madam, I'll head back first and try to think of another way..."

With that, he walked out, intending to flee this damned place while the police hadn't traced him yet, instead of trying to come up with a solution that was impossible.

Jian Hongmei remained slumped on the ground, uncertain of what to do.

If her son went to prison, it didn't matter; she could still have more children. If her daughter cut off ties with them, it didn't matter; at least she still had her husband.

But now even her husband had been arrested, and she was very sure that it was all Xiao Yongze and the others' doing, so Xiao Wenyao would never get out...

What could she do? Xiao Wenyao had taken out so many loans before, and the debts would surely fall on her head, but where would she get the money?

No, she had to think of a way. Now she could only go and plead with Xiao Yongze to show mercy and release Wenyao.

With this in mind, Jian Hongmei immediately got up from the ground and drove to X International.

After Xiao Yongze and Song Jiaxi dropped Ye Jinmeng off at school, they also drove straight back to X International.

Jian Hongmei parked her car on the roadside and was trying to figure out how to plead with them when she saw a Bentley drive by.

Through the windshield, Jian Hongmei caught sight of the smiling faces of Xiao Yongze and Song Jiaxi.

Although she had mentally prepared herself, the actual appearance of the two of them in front of her still caused her whole body to tremble, as if a demonic hand was tightly gripping her neck, making it hard for her to breathe.

She suddenly lost the courage to face them, and her trembling fingers started the car as she hastily drove away.

At that moment, in the interrogation room, Xiao Wenyao, faced with the hard evidence laid out before him, knew he could no longer defend himself, and he suddenly aged ten years.

What was meant to come would come eventually, but he never expected it to happen so suddenly, catching him off guard with no ability to retaliate.

He could plead guilty, but what about Meimei? How would she manage on her own without him?

A person suddenly flashed through his mind - it seemed he could only rely on him now.

"Officer, I need to contact my lawyer."

Contacting a lawyer is a right afforded to every suspect, so the police naturally would not prevent it.

Liu Lawyer was on his way to the airport when he received a call from an unknown number. He instinctively wanted to hang up, but his finger slipped, and he accidentally answered.

"Liu Lawyer, this is Xiao Wenyao. I need to trouble you with something."

Liu Lawyer's hand holding the phone trembled as he asked nervously, "Wh-what is it?"

Xiao Wenyao, of course, heard the nervousness on the other end of the line and sighed.

"I want you to help take care of my wife. From now on, she'll be alone. Her health isn't good, and after being pampered for so many years, she definitely can't take care of herself.

I want you to help, not asking for anything else - just make sure she has enough food and clothing for the rest of her life."

Liu Lawyer was taken aback and asked incredulously, "You're calling me just to ask me to take care of your wife?"

Xiao Wenyao gave a faint "Hmm," "The evidence against me is all there. No matter what, I won't be able to get out, and I'm not going to argue. So you don't need to come and defend me either.

As long as you promise to take good care of Meimei's remaining life, I can rest assured."

Liu Lawyer finally understood Xiao Wenyao's implication: "Anyway, no matter what, I won't be getting out, so I won't implicate you. As long as you promise to take good care of Jian Hongmei, you'll be able to live out the rest of your life in peace."

Liu Lawyer couldn't help but swallow hard and promised the man on the phone, "Okay, Mr. Xiao, rest assured, I'll take good care of your wife and make sure she doesn't suffer."

Xiao Wenyao breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good to know."

He then hung up the phone.

Liu Lawyer listened to the dial tone and couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. As long as he didn't have to go to prison, taking care of a woman was no big deal for him.

It was only the taxi driver's reminder that made Liu Lawyer realize they had arrived at the airport.

"Never mind, driver, please turn back. I just remembered I have something to take care of at home." Liu Lawyer made up an excuse to have the driver turn around.

The taxi driver didn't care about the passenger's reasons; as long as he was paid, he would make as many round trips as needed.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yongze and Song Jiaxi had just arrived at the company when a group of good buddies - Ye Junli, Shi Ze, and He Yuanhao - came together.

"Well done, old Xiao, you move fast!" Shi Ze put his feet up on the sofa in the office. "I was a bit dazed when I saw the news!"

"It's been nineteen years, and finally, we've avenged the grudge," He Yuanhao said with a smile.

Xiao Yongze didn't say a word, only nodding happily.

Ye Junli took a sip of tea and asked, "Have you found the child's remains?"

As the words left his mouth, Shi Ze and He Yuanhao suddenly fell silent. They both knew that the child was a taboo subject between the married couple, and for a moment the entire office became eerily quiet.

Xiao Yongze, however, seemed unperturbed. He nodded with a smile, "Found her, found her last night."

The others exchanged glances, sensing the strange mood. Ye Junli tentatively asked, "So, you're happy now?"

"Hmm... I suppose."

The other three looked at each other in confusion. Could it be that old Xiao had been traumatized after seeing his daughter's corpse?

They quickly turned to Song Jiaxi, who was sitting nearby, but saw that her face was also beaming with joy.

Oh no, this couple must have been traumatized. Should they call a psychologist to come and counsel them?

Xiao Yongze, oblivious to their thoughts, looked at Ye Junli and said, "Little Ye, there's something I need to tell you."

Ye Junli seemed puzzled, "What is it?"

Xiao Yongze rested his chin on his hand and enunciated each word carefully, "Your Mengy, from now on, will be mine."
