The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 586: She’s not in Line



Chapter 586

Jing Chen was stunned for a second. Although he often dealt with desperate people, at most he would only beat them until they couldn't take care of themselves or throw them in jail to repent.

After all, this was now a society ruled by law, not an authoritarian regime.

Otherwise, what was the point of the laws established by the state?

"This probably won't work. She no longer poses any threat to you now."

"Moreover, even if this matter goes to court, you acted in self-defense."

"But burning the body, that's a crime."

Jing Chen had to explain to her, his heart also startled by the depth of the woman's hatred.

How deep must her grievance be to desecrate someone's remains even after their death?

Rong Dai carefully wiped the blood off her face and neck, listening to his explanation calmly and quietly.

"Are you done?" She turned her head and stared at Jing Chen with cold eyes. "If you're done, it's my turn."

"I'm glad you're a law-abiding citizen, but if I don't turn her to ashes, I feel like one day you might run into her again somewhere."

"You should know that you were present here today. This woman is vicious; she won't let you off the hook."

"Mr. Jing, I'm doing this for your own good."

"I haven't gone insane to that degree yet. In this world, there are only two people whom I want to destroy completely."

"Shi Ning doesn't even make the list."

She paused, the viciousness in her beautiful eyes dissipating, replaced by a darkness as deep as an abyss.

She didn't know what happened to Yang Wanwan's body, but that was undoubtedly Xin Ziqing's doing.

If things were as terrifying as she suspected, then she couldn't leave Shi Ning's body behind either.

Otherwise, given Shi Yue's limitless indulgence and tolerance for Shi Ning, if Xin Ziqing revealed something like this to Shi Yue, Shi Yue might dare to try it.

One should know that a parent's spoiling of their child is a form of poison.

Shi Yue knew Shi Ning was beyond saving, yet she stubbornly persisted.

Shi Ning's current state was half due to Shi Yue's doing.

"There are some things you don't know yet. When you find out, you'll understand why I have to do this."

She said calmly, then went downstairs.

Jing Chen was dazed for a moment. Although he didn't understand Rong Dai's words, seeing her serious and solemn expression, he gritted his teeth and resigned himself to cleaning up the aftermath.

When Rong Dai went downstairs, Zong Che and Ji Zheng had also rushed over.

Both of them were startled when they saw Rong Dai's appearance.

Rong Dai looked at Ji Zheng with a deep gaze. Ji Zheng was still puzzled, but when he saw Jing Chen carrying Shi Ning's body down, his pupils constricted sharply!

"I did it."

"You're a lawyer. If you want to prosecute, I don't mind."

Rong Dai remained calm.

Zong Che was stunned, and Jing Chen quickly came forward to explain the situation.

Ji Zheng's clenched fist loosened, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

No matter how much he despised her, this was still his blood-related sister after all. But he couldn't forget Shu Ruo's death, or the child in Shu Ruo's womb - that child was even more closely related to him than Shi Ning.

"I won't defend her. She brought this upon herself."

Ji Zheng regained his usual composure in an instant.

"What are you going to do now? Arthur can handle these matters. The Bameng Media issue is over."

"Someone else will deal with the rest."

Ji Zheng looked at her. Suddenly, he felt like he couldn't quite understand this girl anymore.

She was only twenty-three years old. In his eyes, even though she was married to Huo Shao Ting, she was still just a girl at most.

"I still have some things to take care of on my end, so I won't be going back for now."

"But there is one thing I need you to do, although it's cruel, it should be legal."

She remembered Jing Chen's words. Asking him to do that was indeed putting him in a difficult position.

Ji Zheng frowned at her. Rong Dai opened the car door to get in, her voice calm: "Send her for cremation. This is the last bit of kindness I'm showing her."

Otherwise, she would make sure the Ji family couldn't even get her ashes!
