Chapter 209 - Bai Lian's Request
Chapter 209: Bai Lian’s Request
Jing Chen gradually tightened his grip, and his gaze was unpredictable. The only thing that remained unchanged was the anger that surged out of his body, affecting everyone here.
Bai Lian felt that her breathing had become irregular. The air that she could breathe seemed to become a luxury due to the pressure. It could be said that Bai Lian was suffocating because of Jing Chen.
Her face turned red instantly. Her desire to live made her face turn ferocious, but this did not affect the strength in Jing Chen’s hand at all.
To be honest, Bai Lian was really afraid at this moment. She was afraid that Jing Chen would really strangle her to death!
Get it over with.
In the end, Zhao Lin, who was beside Jing Chen, realized that something was wrong. He immediately held Jing Chen’s hand and said anxiously, “Young Master Jing, a life is at stake. Don’t be angry.”
Jing Chen looked over like a poisonous snake, making Zhao Lin shiver.
But it was not worth it to lose a human life.
Before Zhao Lin could persuade him, Jing Chen let go of Zhao Lin’s hand.
Bai Lian suddenly took a deep breath, as if she had been reborn. Her eyes were red, and her cheeks were purple. They slowly turned dark red. Even so, Bai Lian did not recover.
She squatted on the ground and coughed for five minutes before she stopped her hoarse voice. She looked up at Jing Chen with pain in her eyes.
At that moment, she knew that Jing Chen really had the urge to strangle her.
Realizing this, Bai Lian felt a hundred times worse than being strangled to death by Jing Chen.
“It’s impossible between us, right?” Bai Lian’s voice was hoarse. Her voice sounded like the whistling of the bellows beside a big nineties iron pot.
At the same time, the flames that she exhaled pounced on his face, it was burning.
Jing Chen was like a person who was using the big pot. He first revealed a disgusted expression, then he said ruthlessly, “What are you still dreaming about? Bai Lian? You’re alive because you did such a ridiculous thing!”
Jing Chen’s gaze seemed to say, “You can’t escape.”
Yes, Bai Lian had no intention of escaping.
She smiled smugly and no longer hid it. She did not even regret it for a moment. There was only smugness on her face. She was very happy. She smiled arrogantly and said with a smile, “Jing Chen, you’re not allowed to send me to jail and then divorce Su Wan. You’re not allowed to remarry! I’ll agree to help you keep her dog life. How about that?”
Jing Chen looked down at her, as if he was looking at a dog, a dog that was struggling at death’s door. Jing Chen’s face was so cold that it could freeze.
But in Bai Lian’s opinion, she was not afraid at all.
Bai Lian could tell that he was conflicted and struggling, but Bai Lian was just that ruthless. She directly destroyed his last line of defense. “Don’t worry, I’m the only person in this world who can give her the antidote. It’s because I was the one who begged for the antidote for that man. That’s why he would do such an outrageous thing for me. Do you understand?”
The angrier Jing Chen was or the more frustrated he was, the happier Bai Lian was.
Bai Lian felt like she was about to be possessed.
But she had no other choice.
Jing Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at her coldly.
It was as if Bai Lian had found something beautiful and talking about it would make her extremely happy. When she saw Jing Chen’s face turn even uglier, not only did she not stop him, she even continued, “Back then, that man’s wife was drugged with this kind of medicine. Unfortunately, he found out too late that his wife was mentally ill. I was the one who got the antidote and saved his wife. She was a normal person for two years. Guess why two years?”
Bai Lian looked at Su Wan coldly with a vicious gaze and laughed wildly. “Because his woman is already mentally ill. Even if there’s an antidote, it’s irreversible. So if you don’t like this antidote, you can kill me. I’ll wait for Su Wan in the netherworld!”
“I’ll make her go to hell with me!”
Jing Chen was trembling with anger. He had lived for so many years and had never been framed like this by anyone, let alone by Bai Lian. Bai Lian had lost a lot because of him.
But didn’t he compensate her for all of this?
There were even some things that she did not have even as a member of the Bai family!
In the end, what he got in return was a snakelike Bai Lian. He, Jing Chen, was actually the farmer. [2. Referring to the Farmer and the Snake Aesop fable]
