Chapter 124: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 124: Whereabouts (1)
Fat boss, kneeling on the ground, struggled to stand up, but was firmly pressed down by the bailiffs beside him. He stubbornly kept moving, his eyes fixed straight ahead, a hint of excitement flashing across his face.
Mo Yan followed Fat boss's gaze, but there were many onlookers around that area, so she couldn't be sure who he was looking at.
Just then, a delicate-looking woman in her late twenties squeezed out from the crowd, holding a food box.
The woman walked towards the execution platform, clearly intending to get closer, but she was stopped by the bailiffs stationed there.
"Big brother official, that person is this humble woman's older brother. Please, I beg you, let this humble woman go over and feed him a meal!"
Perhaps accustomed to such situations, as Fat boss and the others were already doomed, the bailiffs did not make things difficult for her. After consulting with the executioner, they reminded the woman to "hurry up and come out" and then let her in.
The woman thanked the bailiffs profusely, ignoring the disdainful glances of the bystanders, and went up to the execution platform, walking to Fat boss's side.
Fat Brother stared foolishly at the woman, "Xing'er, you finally came to see me."
Upon hearing this, the woman's eyes turned red, but she didn't speak. She hurriedly took out a few side dishes and a bowl of rice from the food box, using chopsticks to feed them to Fat boss. However, her trembling hands betrayed her sorrow.
Fat boss obediently opened his mouth, but his eyes never left the woman. However, as he ate, his mouth gradually stopped moving, and despair filled his face. "Xing'er, I'm sorry, I'm useless. I can't save you, I'm useless..."
The woman's hand loosened, and the bowl fell to the ground. She covered her mouth, sobbing uncontrollably, "It's my fault, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have taken such a risk, wouldn't have been caught. It's all my fault..."
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have taken such a risk on that Lantern Festival night, wouldn't have captured so many people for money, and wouldn't have been caught later. He had done many wicked things, but he had never wronged her. She disliked him, even hated him in her heart, but at this moment, she really didn't want this man who had poured his heart out to her to die!
Fat boss wanted to comfort the woman, but his hands were tied behind him, and he couldn't move. He smiled gently and shook his head, rubbing the tear-stained face of the woman, "Silly girl, how can I blame you? Even if it wasn't this time, it would be next time, or the time after that. I've committed sins, and this is the fate I deserve! Listen to me, don't cry. If you keep crying, I can't rest in peace even after death."
Upon hearing this, the woman couldn't help but hug the man, tears falling like broken beads, unable to say a word.
Fat boss felt extremely distressed, wishing he could break free from the shackles on his body and hold the woman in his arms to comfort her properly.
They had been together for almost a year, and she had never given him a good face. But now, seeing her tears, seeing her sorrow, it was all for him. If he could, he would exchange his life for a lifetime of happiness for this woman he held dear!
"Yanyan, seeing them like this, I, I feel sorry for them again..."
Liu Tinglan looked at the man and woman on the execution platform, crying in despair, her mood extremely complicated. Clearly, this person had committed heinous crimes and should have died long ago, but seeing them like this, she felt a twinge of discomfort.
"Perhaps in the eyes of others, he deserves to die a thousand deaths, but in the eyes of his wife, he is just her husband, her support."
Mo Yan also felt uneasy. Everyone had a soft spot in their hearts that others couldn't touch. But no matter what, Fat boss, for his own selfish gain, had destroyed countless happy families. This was unforgivable.
Looking at the woman's profile, Mo Yan felt that it was somewhat familiar. After careful consideration, she was very sure that she had never seen this woman before, but that sense of familiarity lingered in her mind.
