Chapter 296 - 296 296 Dont You Have a Clue
?Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Don’t You Have a Clue? Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Don’t You Have a Clue? Bai Xiao certainly knew! Shang Kaijie would have to fully return to the Shang Family so that the hatred wouldn’t be associated with them. That way, if Shang Kaijie got into trouble in the future, it wouldn’t be their concern.
“Jiang Shaoqing, I need your help with this. Think it over before you answer me. It’s a matter of great importance, and it’s indeed ruthless, but I must deal with Shang Kaijie for both my sake and my family’s,” Bai Xiao thought clearly that this was a job only Jiang Shaoqing could do; An Zhiyuan shouldn’t get involved.
Jiang Shaoqing’s eyes darkened—this girl describing it as ruthless probably meant no good.
An Zhiyuan asked softly, “I’m more suited for this kind of thing than Jiang Shaoqing.” He was a bit depressed; Bai Xiao actually sought someone else’s help! Not even considering him, which made him very sad.
Bai Xiao reassuringly squeezed his hand, “You’re not suitable; of course, Jiang Shaoqing is the most suitable!” Indeed, Jiang Shaoqing was the most suitable! It was also Bai Xiao’s way of securing Jiang Shaoqing’s loyalty; once Jiang Shaoqing helped her this time, they would be completely in the same boat.
After this, Jiang Shaoqing would become her true partner because Bai Xiao had to do this to ensure their cooperation was stable and unbreakable.
Jiang Shaoqing looked deeply at Bai Xiao, the girl had put it so bluntly; it was all because of the backing of the Jiang Family she dared to be so lawless. Should he do it?
Should he let the Jiang Family be dominated by such a girl?
“I’ve said we can do anything for you as long as it doesn’t cross moral boundaries and isn’t about killing and plundering. Our Jiang Family will support you,” Jiang Shaoqing said cleverly. These words, said earlier, were meant to guard against Bai Xiao’s exploitation in the future.
The reason the Jiang Family had stood unscathed for so many years was that they always stuck to their true moral baseline, never trampling their own principles for profit. That’s why their family had grown so powerful.
“Don’t worry! It won’t violate the moral baseline,” Bai Xiao didn’t back down. Even if what constitutes a moral baseline isn’t clear to others, she knew; but this time, she was indeed challenging that line.
For a demon like Shang Kaijie, dying a thousand times would not be enough; Shang Kaijie’s death would truly save lives, otherwise, there’s no telling how many more people he would harm.
Later evidence showed that Shang Kaijie had taken the lives of dozens of people, all young girls in the prime of their lives. Not ending such a person’s life would be an injustice to the children struggling in hell; this time, she wouldn’t give him a chance to kill again.
“Oh? I’d like to hear more about it!” Jiang Shaoqing was curious about what Bai Xiao intended to do.
“Like this…” Bai Xiao whispered some words, and Jiang Shaoqing’s expression changed.
“You still don’t think this is outrageous? Shang Kaijie…” Jiang Shaoqing lowered his voice, “He is, after all, a human life, and you want him dead. Don’t think I can’t see through your malice. You’re a doctor; can you justify this kind of action with your medical ethics?”
Bai Xiao sneered, Jiang Shaoqing’s reaction was as expected, “I’m not a bad person, at most I’m just a hero of Liangshan, Shang Kaijie is a piece of trash, if he doesn’t die, I definitely won’t let it go.”
“But he’s just one person, trash may just mean he’s abusive and reckless, but that doesn’t mean he deserves to die!” Jiang Shaoqing suppressed his own fury, unexpectedly, this young girl was truly ruthless, more so than many men.
He regretted somewhat, the words said at home back then, had they given this girl the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard?
“Heh, he’s abusive and that’s enough reason for someone to drive a car to kill me? His recklessness is enough for him to come to kill someone? Jiang Shaoqing, when you say these words, shouldn’t you keep in mind, just now, just a moment ago, had you not arrived, what would have been the fate of the three people in our family? Don’t you know in your heart? If you think such a person doesn’t deserve to die, then tell me, others come to kill me, should I give them a chance to finish the job, do I look particularly easy to bully?” Bai Xiao’s voice wasn’t high-pitched, yet every word and sentence struck Jiang Shaoqing’s heart heavily, leaving him speechless, right.
What did Bai Xiao say wrong, when someone wanted to kill her, yet she gave them a chance to catch their breath? If Shang Kaijie had dared to do that to him, he probably wouldn’t be alive today, to dare to move against the Jiang Family and not expect to die was impossible, so why when it’s Bai Xiao’s turn, should she be the one to endure?
Their moral bottom line was built on their interests, frankly, it’s like being a prostitute but also wanting to set up an arch of chastity.
“You probably don’t know, this Shang Kaijie, right before meeting you yesterday, just harmed a ten-year-old girl! Just ten, you have siblings too, a ten-year-old girl in the prime of her youth, what was her fault? If you don’t believe me, go ask Shang Kaijie’s men, nobody else may know, but they are his confidants since he’s been here, they naturally know about such things since they’re the ones handling the aftermath, you can ask them, is that little girl still alive? Or should I ask this way, how many little girls has Shang Kaijie harmed?” Bai Xiao spoke through gritted teeth.
Jiang Shaoqing’s eyes were filled with storms, although the Shang Family had a good relationship with their family, it certainly did not reach a level that mattered in the Jiang Family’s eyes, if Shang Kaijie really was such an inhumane person, he truly did not deserve to live.
“Take these two out! Take all these people away.” Jiang Shaoqing’s stern voice revealed the storm within, those who had followed Jiang Shaoqing for years knew this was Jiang losing his temper.
Bai Xiao and An Zhiyuan got into his car, and the elder sister admonished An Zhiyuan incessantly, fearing something else might happen to Bai Xiao.
The group left the place, An Zhiyuan driving through the heavy snow with difficulty following Jiang Shaoqing’s convoy, his complexion dark, not looking too good! His expression was so stern that Bai Xiao couldn’t pretend not to see it.
A silent confrontation played out within the car.
In the end, it was Bai Xiao who gave up resisting, they were not children after all, what was the point of this?
“It’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s just more appropriate for Jiang Shaoqing to handle this matter. Who are you? What I want, frankly, is for Shang Kaijie to be punished. Since the law can’t punish Shang Kaijie, I’ll act as the God, righting wrongs once isn’t good? But you are different, your integrity, selflessness, fearlessness, and loyalty are all for the nation, for justice, I don’t want such a stain on you. Is it worth getting angry with me over this?” Communication is very important.
“I’m not angry at you, I’m angry at myself, we had agreed I was going to protect you! But many times, despite myself, my responsibilities and duties require me to be a person of integrity and selflessness, but the result is that I can’t protect you, needing others to do so, it hurts me.” An Zhiyuan punched the steering wheel.
Only then did Bai Xiao understand why An Zhiyuan was angry.
