Chapter 270: The vain Empress under control.
Jingzhe clapped his hands dramatically. "Oh right, I forgot to tell you because we were all busy celebrating the National Liberation Day. You were enjoying your family reunion so you did not hear about it. Mo Chenyu was one of the people that died in the riot at the cold prison."
Mei Mei gasped again. She almost smiled...Mo Chenyu was the only one that died in the riot. The other two people were very much alive, living somewhere in her ancestral home. "Why wasn’t it mentioned in the news?"
"It was." Grandpa Mo pitched in. "Do you really expect me to believe that you had no idea about Chenyu’s death?"
Mei Mei chuckled. Just once. "Old man, look around you. I am too busy to care about the affairs of your Mo family. I handed in evidence of Mo Chenyu’s crimes and that was the last time I saw or heard about him.
I am not a member of your family. I am not legally required to be notified by the police when one of you drops dead. As for your wife divorcing you, it is none of my business.
You made her accustomed to a high end life. Did you think a woman like her would follow you back to the pits of poverty where you came from?"
Grandpa Mo gripped his cane again.
"Old man, I cannot help you. Even if I could, I do not intend to. We must all suffer the consequences of our choices. When I chose Mo Liang against the wishes of my family, I suffered the consequences. I paid the price and learned my lesson. It is your turn." She gestured to the door. "Show yourselves out before I invite the police to show you out."
She leaned back in the chair with her cup of tea in her hands. Her body language screamed loudly that she would not be talking anymore.
"I will be back again and again," Grandpa Mo said, standing and buttoning his coat. "I will keep returning until you find a way to forgive us. I still believe in your goodness, Jun Meilin. I also know that forgiveness is the only way you will truly move on. The best revenge you can have is to live gloriously."
