The Cherished Old Time - C173
Tan Yubai did not die, but this time he was exposed by the police.
When Yu Meng found one of the most experienced lawyers in this kind of case and discussed the details of the case with him, the lawyer said it was a big deal to say, but a small one at that.
After a moment of hesitation, Yu Meng went to Shen Nian’s hospital to see her. Although she had special care for Tan Yubai, she had definitely seen the news on Tan Yubai before.
At this juncture, it was best if nothing happened to her.
Shen Nian was always calmer than Yu Meng. Not only did she not seem to worry about Tan Yubai, she seemed to be even more relaxed than before. Yu Meng thought that it was probably because Shen Nian’s body and mind were getting better and better, but she didn’t expect that Shen Nian was actually gloating at her misfortune.
“I want to see what kind of harm you will do to Tan Yubai in the end before I’m willing to let this go.”
Yu Meng was stunned for a moment. Her polite smile immediately stiffened at the corner of her mouth.
“What do you mean?”
“Literally.” Shen Nian sat on the bed, she no longer had so many needles on her body, and her body looked much better than how skinny she looked previously.
“Do your best.”
Yu Meng regretted coming to the hospital. She originally had good intentions in mind, but now she had been thrown into despair.
“I want to give you that too.” Shen Nian faced the door to Yu Meng’s room, and said those last profound words with a cold smile.
After Yu Meng left, she felt that Shen Nian was not worth worrying about at all.
Many people did not know that Tan Yubai was still alive, but in the past few days, her phone had almost burst, and the production team’s smooth progress had been delayed by Yu Meng’s matter. They could only finish filming the supporting roles, and finally start filming the main character’s scenes.
During this period, Du Qinyi had been here a few times, and Yu Meng had purposely avoided her until that day, when Yu Meng was busy at work at the company. It was already very late, and she was the only one left in the company.
Du Qinyi had already taken all the shares in her hands away from her, so she was now just a normal visitor to Yu’s. Without an appointment, the front desk would not allow her to go.
Yu Meng was surprised that she had waited so long.
There were many things that had to be done sooner or later. She did not want to dodge anymore, so she directly walked towards him.
“Why are you looking for me?”
“Where is Tan Yubai locked up?” Du Qinyi’s question was very simple, her goal was not to hide anything: “I want to see him.”
The night was lonely, only the cold moonlight shone onto Du Qinyi’s face, and Yu Meng saw the pleading look in her eyes.
Yu Meng couldn’t help but sigh.
“Let’s talk while we walk.”
These two women were neighbors who had grown up together. They should have had a chance to be good sisters, but each of them had an unspeakable secret that would slowly grow into a knot in their hearts.
The barrier between Yu Meng and Du Qinyi was none other than Tan Yubai.
This cold-blooded and taciturn man had become the object of love for so many women.
“I know you hate me. You don’t want to see me.” Du Qinyi and Yu Meng walked side by side, the street was quiet and lonely. This was an office, there were no night markets or bars, everything was empty and wide, it was so quiet that even the sound of footsteps could be heard.
Du Qinyi seemed to be laughing, while Yu Meng turned her head, but her smile looked extremely ugly right now, as if she was crying.
“I know you want to laugh at me. It doesn’t matter, since I’ve come to find you, I’m not afraid of you laughing at me.”
Yu Meng replied calmly.
“Why should I laugh at you?”
Du Qinyi was startled.
“Tan Yubai is in the jail at the police headquarters in the city center, but other than his lawyer, no one else can see him before the trial.”
“Then …” Du Qinyi thought for a while and said: “I can follow the lawyer inside!”
Yu Meng finally stopped walking.
“Du Qinyi, why should I agree to your request?”
Du Qinyi was startled. Not long after, she suddenly grabbed onto Yu Meng’s hand, a pleading and pained expression on her face.
“Whatever you want me to do, I just want to see him.”
“Du Qinyi, you have plotted this for your entire life, then, have you calculated that, even if you beg me now, you do not have anything that I want. I am powerless, so why should I agree to it?”
Du Qinyi was startled. She didn’t seem to think that Yu Meng would be so heartless. Since she was young, Du Qinyi had always understood Yu Meng. She was a soft-hearted and kind person.
But he didn’t expect that …
“A good person gets bullied.” Yu Meng’s face was calm.
“Du Qinyi, what right do you have to think that after doing such an unforgivable thing to me, I can still forgive you out of respect for me since I was young?”
“Yu Meng, I …”
“When you do those things, you should know that after failure you have no way out. I did not retaliate in the same way as you, which is already my greatest kindness. A selfish person like you is never worth forgiving. ”
Du Qinyi’s eyes were filled with shock, astonishment and despair.
“Splash!”
Suddenly, Du Qinyi kneeled beside Yu Meng’s feet.
He tugged at the corner of her clothes.
“I’m begging you, okay?”
Yu Meng didn’t pull her to her feet, instead looking down at the pitiful woman from above.
“In the past, you really can do anything for Tan Yubai.”
Yu Meng felt sad. She didn’t know if she should use infatuation to describe her, or shamelessness to describe her.
“I think you’re crazy.”
Yu Meng shook Du Qinyi’s hand away coldly.
“I want you to leave yourself a last shred of dignity.”
“Also, you must pay the price for your wrongdoings. It is not something that can be done with just a few words of apology.”
