Chapter 217 Are You Tired of Living and Wanting to Die?_1
Of course, in order to prevent An Jing and Xiao Changyi from refusing to kowtow and apologize, the village chief wouldn’t reveal this just yet.
Even though the village chief didn’t say it out loud, An Jing could guess. She simply didn’t believe that these people, who wished nothing more than for her and her husband to die, would be so ’kind-hearted’ as to let things slide if they apologized.
An Jing quietly lowered her eyebrows, then slowly asked, "What if we refuse?"
The village chief hadn’t expected An Jing to say they wouldn’t cooperate, and after pausing in shock, he said viciously, "Then don’t blame us for being merciless! We’ll inform the government! The County Grandpa will chop off your heads!"
"Then go report us," An Jing finished, too lazy to bother with these people anymore, and continued to work the land with Xiao Changyi.
Everyone was stunned. Did An Jing and Xiao Changyi no longer value their lives? Or were they so tired of living that they wished for death?
Once the village chief regained his wits, he stomped his foot urgently, "An Jing, Xiao Changyi, if you don’t kowtow and apologize, we really will report you to the government. If the Lord County Magistrate finds out you’ve falsified official documents, he’ll definitely chop off your heads. You’d better think this through!"
The others also wanted to see the usually arrogant An Jing and Xiao Changyi kneel before them for their satisfaction. So at this moment, they were extremely anxious. Sending them off to be beheaded would be revenge, but it wouldn’t be as gratifying!
While digging up tree roots with a hoe, An Jing urged them, "Go ahead, we aren’t stopping you."
The crowd: "..." How come they didn’t feel triumphant but instead felt like they had been made fools of?
