"Shen Yang," Father Shen said slowly, his voice filled with deep fatigue and disappointment. "You've grown up; there are some things you need to decide for yourself."
Mother Shen walked over to Shen Xingyue, wrapping her tightly in an embrace as tears streamed down her face. "My child, I’m so sorry for what you’ve had to endure..."
Nestled in her mother’s arms, Shen Xingyue felt the warmth and was overwhelmed with mixed emotions.
She understood that from this moment on, everything would be different.
Li Ze stood nearby, watching Shen Xingyue with eyes full of compassion and determination.
He knew that the girl he had chosen was not only beautiful and kind but also strong and brave.
He silently vowed to protect her well, ensuring she would never suffer again.
The cries of Jiang Junlian, Shen Yang's silence, and the sighs of Father and Mother Shen intertwined, creating a poignant scene.
Days later.
Jiang Junlian suddenly reached out to me, expressing a desire to meet in person. Her tone was so sincere that it raised my suspicions.
She claimed to regret her actions and sought my forgiveness, pouring out a stream of remorseful words.
I scoffed; someone like her would feel remorse? I couldn't believe it.
Nevertheless, I agreed to meet her; I wanted to see what trick she was planning next.
I turned on my phone's recording feature and tucked it into my bag. Then I sent messages to my boyfriend and brother, informing them of my whereabouts just in case.
We arranged to meet at a café near my home, and when I arrived, Jiang Junlian was already there.
She was holding her large belly, her face haggard, and her eyes were red, making her look quite convincing.
“Shen Xingyue, I know I’ve done a lot of wrong things before. I’m sorry for you and for the Shen Family,” Jiang Junlian cried as soon as she saw me. “I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me; I won’t do it again.”
I looked at her expressionlessly, coldly laughing inside. Such acting skills; it would be a shame not to become an actress.
“Speak up. What do you really want?” I asked directly, not wanting to waste time with her.
Jiang Junlian wiped her tears and sobbed, “I really just want to apologize. I…”
Before she could finish her sentence, her expression suddenly changed. She grabbed my hand tightly and screamed, “Shen Xingyue, what are you doing! Don’t hit me! I still have a child in my belly!”
I was taken aback, still processing what had happened when several aggressive “bystanders” rushed over.
“What’s wrong with you? How can you hit a pregnant woman?”
“Exactly! That’s so vicious!”
“Call the police! Get her arrested!”
These people were all shouting accusations at me while Jiang Junlian looked at me smugly, as if to say, “You think you can fight me? You’re still too inexperienced!”
In an instant, I realized this was a trap set by Jiang Junlian to frame me for hitting her.
Ha, truly desperate times call for desperate measures; she was using every trick in the book.
I stared at her coldly and calmly took out my phone from my bag, opening the recording app. The conversation we just had played back clearly.
“Shen Xingyue, what are you doing! Don’t hit me! I still have a child in my belly!” Jiang Junlian’s sharp voice echoed in the café.
Then came my calm voice, “Jiang Junlian, what trick are you trying to pull this time?”
The recording continued to play, and Jiang Junlian's scheme was fully exposed, making the accusations from those "bystanders" seem utterly ridiculous.
"What...?" The bystanders exchanged glances, their faces awkward.
Jiang Junlian's complexion turned pale in an instant; she never expected that I had such a trump card up my sleeve.
"You... you actually recorded it!" she exclaimed, pointing at me in frustration.
"Of course," I sneered. "How else could I reveal your true colors?"
I took out my phone and dialed 110 directly. "Hello, officer, I have someone here who is suspected of defamation and may also be involved in fraud..."
The police arrived quickly and took Jiang Junlian and the bystanders away.
When Shen Yang arrived, he happened to witness this scene.
He stood there in a daze, watching as Jiang Junlian was taken away by the police, his eyes vacant as if he had lost his soul.
"Brother, are you... okay?" I approached him and asked softly.
Shen Yang slowly turned his head to look at me, his expression complicated. "Xingyue, I'm sorry..."
His voice was hoarse, filled with deep remorse.
"Brother," I sighed, "you're also a victim; don't blame yourself too much."
Shen Yang shook his head. "No, it's my fault for being so foolish and trusting others too easily..."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "I will divorce her as soon as possible. As for the child... I will take responsibility."
I nodded. "Brother, it's good that you can see things clearly."
A few months later, the court's verdict came down: Jiang Junlian was sentenced for fraud and defamation.
Shen Yang divorced her, and custody of the child was awarded to Shen Yang.
In prison, Jiang Junlian gave birth to a girl, and Shen Yang visited her once.
Holding his swaddled daughter and gazing at her tender little face, he suddenly understood his father's feelings from back then.
In that moment, he truly grasped what responsibility meant.
He decided to raise his daughter well, ensuring she grew up in a loving environment.
As for me and Li Ze, our relationship deepened.
He stood by me during this difficult time, providing me with immense support and encouragement.
We made plans for the future: buying a house, getting married, having children...
Life finally returned to normal.
Yet, occasionally recalling this experience still sends shivers down my spine.
The ugliness of human nature can sometimes be beyond imagination.
