Chapter 1684: Only After You Finish Your Jail Term, You Will Have a Chance...
The atmosphere in the carriage gradually became awkward.
Liu Wei wanted to smooth things over, but didn't know how to start.
So, everyone returned to the compound in silence.
Zhong Ziyu went to his room and changed back to his usual gentle scholar face. When he came out, he found that Yue Dansheng was gone.
Liu Wei was writing something in the hall. Zhong Ziyu sat over and asked her, "Where is Brother Yue?"
Liu Wei didn't even raise her head and said, "He went out."
Zhong Ziyu was silent for a moment and asked again, "Where did he go?"
Liu Wei finally looked up at him this time. She took a deep breath and asked solemnly, "Zhong Ziyu, do you really not like Yue Dansheng?"
Zhong Ziyu was stunned for a moment and said, "I like him. I like Brother Yue very much."
Liu Wei smacked his lips, "It's not that kind of like, it's the kind between men and women..."
Zhong Ziyu frowned and looked at Liu Wei as if he was looking at a lunatic, "What are you talking about?"
Liu Wei saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and she was unsure for a moment. She put down the pen and faced Zhong Ziyu Conversation: "What did you do in the room yesterday?"
Zhong Ziyu felt a little guilty: "You don't need to know."
Liu Wei snorted: "The bed was a mess."
Zhong Ziyu felt ridiculous: "It's not what you think."
Liu Wei raised an eyebrow: "Then tell me clearly, what is the situation. To be honest, since Yue Dansheng asked you to wear his clothes yesterday, I felt something was wrong. He seemed to treat you better all of a sudden?"
"I know." Zhong Ziyu only had his brother Yue in his mind. He could tell whether Yue Dansheng's attitude towards him was better or worse. From yesterday to today, the number of times Yue brother talked to him was more than the total number of times they had talked in the past year. As a party involved, he knew everything clearly.
Liu Wei didn't understand: "Why is that?"
Zhong Ziyu exhaled, closed his eyes, and a self-deprecating expression appeared on his face: "Why else? Because of my face."
Liu Wei frowned: "What do you mean?"
Zhong Ziyu lowered his eyebrows and said slowly: "I grew up with him. Chongming is our sister. Before the tragedy happened, the three of us were a family. That face is my own face. He has seen it countless times. When I laughed, when I was angry, when I was angry, when I cried, he saw it. He still has deep feelings for that face. He used to be the elder brother, and Chongming and I were the younger brother and sister. He liked Chongming as much as he liked me. I ruined everything. I have no reason to use that face to confuse him and force him to keep his past feelings for me. So after Chongming died, I never showed my true face again. This time, it was an accident, but I will wear a mask in the future. I won't let him confuse me. He should hate me, even I hate myself."
These words are a bit upside down, but Liu Wei understood, and she understood.
Zhong Ziyu's original face was a memory, Yue Dansheng's memory of the good memories of the past. If he still used that face, Yue Dansheng would have forgiven him a long time ago, because his brother and sister were equally important in his heart. These two people were his relatives, the closest and dearest ones.
But Zhong Ziyu chose to seal his face. He hoped that Yue Dansheng would forgive him, but he was unwilling to use his greatest weapon to seduce him.
Liu Wei understood this mentality, which was self-redemption.
Just as Zhong Ziyu said, he hated himself.
Wei Chou would certainly find excuses for Zhong Ziyu again and again for what happened in the past.
But Zhong Ziyu himself had never forgiven himself for a moment.
This situation was somewhat contradictory. In the past, everyone thought that Yue Dansheng was unwilling to let Zhong Ziyu go, so he tortured him in every way, but now they know that it was Zhong Ziyu who never thought of letting him go from the beginning, and it was always himself who tortured him.
Liu Wei couldn't tell right from wrong.
In an orderly society where people exist, it is natural to be punished for making mistakes.
Yue Chongming's death was a mistake, the biggest mistake Zhong Ziyu made and the one he regretted the most, but he could not be punished. Did he kill Yue Chongming? No, if he really killed him, he might have surrendered long ago. He was willing to go to jail, accept punishment, and atone for his sins.
But he couldn't even surrender himself, because he didn't kill the person, so what could he do?
He could only shut himself off and punish himself in his own way.
He became crazy and twisted, he began to be evil and terrifying.
Liu Wei now believes that the one who suffered the most in Yue Chongming's matter was not Yue Dansheng, because Zhong Ziyu, for Yue Chongming, had thrown himself into the abyss of hell, and he was the one who suffered the most.
Liu Wei looked at Zhong Ziyu sitting opposite him, not knowing what to say.
Zhong Ziyu didn't seem to feel anything.
"How many people did you kill before, do you remember?" After a long time, Liu Wei suddenly asked.
Zhong Ziyu glanced at her and said casually, "I don't remember."
"Do they all deserve to die?" Liu Wei asked again.
Zhong Ziyu sneered, "Almost."
"Where is the elder sister of Big Girl and Little Girl?"
"Her." Zhong Ziyu really remembered this person, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Forcing a good woman into prostitution."
Liu Wei frowned.
Zhong Ziyu smiled and said, "She was sold to a brothel by her parents. She hated the madam and her parents, but in the end, she became the kind of person she hated the most. After redeeming herself, she opened a small restaurant. Unlike the brothels outside, her restaurant does not sell adult women, but only young children, all of whom are seven or eight years old. She thinks that children can make more money than adult women, and the price offered by customers who play with children is ten times that of adult women. You said that Big Girl and Little Girl are right? I tell you frankly, Liu Wei, if I didn't kill her, your two little girls would have been her goods sooner or later."
Liu Wei's expression became ugly. She heard the stories about Big Girl and Little Girl's sister from the two girls themselves. In their mouths, their parents were bad people and their sister was a good person.
Zhong Ziyu changed his sitting position and talked about the past with Liu Wei: "I definitely didn't wrongly accuse her of this. If you don't believe me, you can find out now. Dan'er Niang of Guyong Mansion, her nickname is this."
Liu Wei was silent for a while, and then looked at Zhong Ziyu: "So you think you are not wrong?"
Zhong Ziyu shrugged: "It's not up to me to decide whether it's right or wrong, it's up to you, isn't it? If you think it's wrong, it's wrong. If you think it's right, it's right. Anyway, I can't beat you. You suddenly asked me this, and I guessed what you meant. You want to send me to jail, right? When the situation stabilizes, you will be the first person to send me to jail, right?"
"Yes." Liu Wei was not afraid to admit it. She said bluntly: "If you kill someone, you must pay with your life."
Zhong Ziyu sneered and disdainful.
Liu Wei said again: "But if those people you mentioned have indeed been a disaster to one side, it's not a pity to die. After the investigation is true, I will plead for you and ask for a lighter sentence, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, at least you can get out in your lifetime."
Zhong Ziyu didn't care and didn't say anything.
"Actually, I'm not telling you this today because I want to talk about the past. Instead, I sympathize with you." Liu Wei suddenly said.
Zhong Ziyu looked at her: "Oh?"
Liu Wei leaned over and said to him seriously: "You need to go to jail. You need an outsider to punish you. Whether it's because you killed other people or because Yue Chongming died because of you, your self-punishment is invalid. It will only make you sink deeper and deeper. But I can be your helper. I can punish you and give you a relief."
Zhong Ziyu looked at her in astonishment, a little stunned.
Liu Wei sighed: "Don't escape from prison at that time. Only if you finish those years in prison steadily, you will have a chance..."
Have a chance to forgive yourself, have a chance to let Yue Dansheng forgive you.
"There is a chance to start over."
