Chapter 408: The Last Meeting

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhang Ji was controlled by his emotions just now. When he saw Zhang Li sobbing, he regretted it again.

After all, she was his sister whom he had doted on since she was young. He could not bear to think that she was about to be detained.

Zhang Ji advised, “Don’t think about the past. Yaoyao wants to go back to film because she likes to film. With us around this time, we won’t let her be bullied.”

Zhang Li nodded repeatedly. Actually, there was nothing to worry about. Jing Yao had so many people pampering her now, so no one dared to make her suffer.

She had the ability to protect her in the past, but she was the one who pushed Jing Yao into the fire pit again and again.

Including the last time, she had always known what it meant to let Jing Yao participate in that drinking party.

If it were any other girl she did not know, she would not have done such a heartless thing. But at that time, Jing Yuan only said one sentence.

“The Jing Family has supported her for so long. She has to repay us.”

At that time, she felt that Jing Yuan was right. They had never given Jing Yao anything. Compared to Jing Yuan, Jing Yao was almost let go by them.

As Zhang Li thought about it, her tears flowed even more fiercely.

In the past year or so, she seemed to have aged by more than 10 years. She looked even older than her Second Brother, Zhang Ji. The wrinkles on her face were popping out, and her eyes were turbid.

Zhang Ji couldn’t bear it and comforted her. “If you really want to make it up to Yaoyao, go and discuss it with Jing Mo. Both of you take a step back and withdraw the lawsuit.”

Zhang Li suddenly looked up at Zhang Ji. Her eyes were still wet and her face was covered in tears, but her eyes were fierce and stubborn.

“Second Brother, why do you keep asking me to withdraw the lawsuit? Shouldn’t such a scumbag be punished?”

Zhang Li gritted her teeth. If Jing Mo was in front of her, she might pounce on him and tear off a piece of his flesh.

These words made Zhang Ji’s heart burn with anger. He expected better from someone and said, “Do you have to punish him in such a self-harming way? He’s now crippled for life and penniless. His future will definitely not be good. Why do you have to go to jail with him?”

Zhang Li shook her head gently. “Second Brother, you don’t understand Jing Mo. A person like him can do anything. Moreover, he’s extremely vengeful and vicious. Back then, he pushed all the blame to me because Xuan Ling died in childbirth. He knew what would hurt the most, so he thought of such a vicious method to separate me from the daughter I painstakingly gave birth to…”

Zhang Li started crying again.

Zhang Ji frowned at her. This time, he couldn’t say anything to comfort her.

He actually did not agree with Zhang Li’s words. Jing Mo’s lie was indeed hateful, but not only did Zhang Li not see through such a clumsy lie, she was persuaded by him.

Her father had clearly praised Little Sister for being smart since she was young. Who would have thought that she would become a different person after meeting Jing Mo?

Zhang Ji took a walk with Zhang Li alone not only to tell Zhang Li that Jing Yao and her family would come to Lin City, but also because he wanted to use this opportunity to persuade Zhang Li again.

However, looking at the current situation, it was obviously impossible to convince Zhang Li.

“Let’s go back. It’s too late now.” Zhang Ji didn’t know what else to say and suggested going home.

With that, he turned around and prepared to walk back.

“Second Brother!”

Zhang Ji had just moved when he was stopped by Zhang Li.

Zhang Ji turned to look at her in confusion.

Zhang Li’s face was covered in tears as she looked at him pleadingly.

“Second Brother, help me one last time.” Zhang Li’s tone was filled with pleading.

Zhang Ji felt inexplicably uneasy. He vaguely guessed what Zhang Li wanted to say and was already silently thinking about how to reject her.

“Second Brother, I want to see Yaoyao. Help me. This might be the last time I see her.”

Zhang Li seemed to know that he would not agree. Before he could speak, she hurriedly said, “It’s really just the last time. Help me.”

Zhang Ji couldn’t nod and agree. If he really agreed, he probably wouldn’t be able to return home in the future.

However, seeing Zhang Li’s expression, he could not bear to reject her.

“I’ll help you try, but don’t have too much hope.”

Zhang Li nodded repeatedly. No matter if it worked or not, it was always good to have a glimmer of hope.

“Thank you, Second Brother.” Zhang Li raised her hand to wipe her tears. There were still tears in her eyes, but she was already smiling.

Zhang Ji sighed in his heart and felt a headache. He had completely taken on an incompetent tough job for himself..
