“What do you mean? Are you calling me a beast? Try something else. I’ve heard too many such comments. You can’t provoke me using that,” Tan Jing said with a smile.

Qiao Mei lowered her voice and said, “I’m not trying to insult you. I’m just telling the truth. After all, you’re a mentally ill person. It’s understandable that you can’t understand what everyone is saying.”

That was right! She was a mentally ill person now, so she would not be arrested by the police no matter what she did!

Tan Jing quickly messed up her hair and hurtled towards Qiao Mei in an aggressive manner. She even shouted, “You should die!” Before Tan Jing could even reach Qiao Mei, she was knocked down and pressed to the ground by Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang.

Qiao Mei had wanted to praise Tan Jing for having some smarts, but it appeared that she had none left.

“You… Never mind…” Qiao Mei looked at Tan Jing’s sorry state and could not bear to mock her. After all, Xia Wen was quietly looking at them from 100 meters behind Tan Jing.

Xia Wen was a man who cherished all his relationships. Even though Tan Jing left in a heartless manner and did so much to hurt the Xia family, it did not change the fact that they were in love when they got married in their younger days. After so many years together, Xia Wen felt that he owed her something.

He did not come here to stop Qiao Mei, but to see if Tan Jing was really crazy or just pretending. He needed to report the situation to his superiors.

“Alright, I don’t want to talk nonsense with you. Da Zhuang, Xiao Zhuang, let go of her and let’s go.” With that, Qiao Mei got into the car. Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang only let Tan Jing go after confirming that Qiao Mei was sitting safely inside the car.

Tan Jing stood up and patted the dust off her body. She was no longer the same person who was weak and would weep for no reason. Now, her eyes were only filled with hatred and free from worries. Qiao Mei would not be able to stay active for long! Her mother would soon go to jail for the rest of her life!

“You’re free.” A gentle voice sounded from behind Tan Jing. It was the voice she thought about day and night.

Tan Jing did not dare to turn around. She was afraid that what she heard was just a dream. Also, she did not want Xia Wen to see her in such a sorry state.

“Why are you here?” Tan Jing asked.

“I’m just passing by,” Xia Wen said.

“Your workplace unit is in the opposite direction from this place. It’s a little far-fetched to say that you’re just passing by. Are you here to laugh at me?” Tan Jing questioned.

“There’s nothing funny about this situation. Are you doing alright? Where’s your child?” Xia Wen asked.

“The child… the child is with the Huang family. That’s their family’s child! Not mine!” Tan Jing said with a frown.

Back then, the two of them had quarreled non-stop because of the issue of children and it even led to a divorce. If they had a child together, perhaps the outcome would be different…

She was already a mother. If she did not even care about her own child, how much conscience did she have left? Even a vicious tiger would not eat its own cubs!

“Don’t you have anything to confess to me?” Xia Wen asked.

Tan Jing thought that Xia Wen was here to see her, but she did not expect him to be here for Qiao Mei. Ever since Qiao Mei married into the Xia family, Xia Wen’s attention had always been on Qiao Mei. He was always at Qiao Mei’s beck and call whenever she needed something and would help her without any complaints! Then what about her! Whenever something happened to her and her family! Xia Wen would avoid her!

“As expected, you’re not here for me… You’re just lying to me…” Tan Jing said mockingly as she cried. She wanted to laugh at her own fantasies.

“I’m here to persuade you to turn yourself in. You have to know that if we find out that you’re the culprit after our investigations, the charges will become more serious. If you turn yourself in, you might be dealt with more leniently,” Xia Wen said with a sigh.

Tan Jing stood there stubbornly and did not say anything. Xia Wen understood what Tan Jing meant and turned to leave. He shook his head resignedly. After having worked as a teacher for so many years, he was still delusional that he could reform a person who had already become a wild beast. He was too naive.

“All of you… won’t have it easy! I won’t let you off!” Tan Jing stood at the same spot and muttered to herself as she looked at Xia Wen’s back.

The consecutive successes Tan Jing had made her feel a little proud and confident. She had successfully poisoned so many people without being discovered! In that case, she might as well poison the Xia family next time! She wanted everyone who had bullied her before to die! All of them should die together! No one should have an easy life!

After reaching Qiao Mei’s house, Xia Wen and Qiao Mei went to the study. Xia Wen said, “I think we can be 80% sure that she did it. What do you want to do next?”

“Me? Why are you asking me?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“Because she will never admit to it. If we use interrogation or any other methods to make Tan Jing confess, the public will only think that we found a scapegoat to cover up for Auntie Li. If that happens, things will just get more and more out of control. That’s why I want to ask you what you think?” Xia Wen asked.
