Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Won’t Surrender_1
Ruan Tianling pulled Jian Yufei behind him, worrying that the now somewhat irrational Xu Man might harm her.
Only few knew that Jian Yufei was pregnant. If Xu Man were to accidentally push her, there was no telling if she’d injure their unborn child.
“Ruan Brother, I didn’t do it. I’ll let today’s scare slide for your sake and won’t pursue it anymore. But, I want Jian Yufei to apologize to me. She frightened me so much; isn’t it only fair she says sorry to me?” Xu Man said to him.
Ruan Tianling looked at her indifferently, his eyes devoid of warmth.
He gave a faint smirk and said coldly, “Xu Man, if someone else did this, can you guess how I’d deal with them?”
Xu Man, with a guilty conscience, feigned composure, “How am I supposed to know that?”
“I would treat them as they treated others.” Ruan Tianling said with a smirk, “But I’m willing to give you a chance. Turn yourself in; don’t force my hand.”
Xu Man went pale, “Ruan Brother, you still don’t believe me?!”
Everything Ruan Tianling said was true. If the police were to get involved, she would soon bear all the blame for this crime.
Now, her only option was to seek Yan Yue’s help.
“I didn’t do it! I won’t admit to it and I won’t turn myself in!”
“You’re incorrigible!” Ruan Tianling snorted and didn’t want to waste his breath on her anymore.
He once thought Xu Man was just willful and a tad hot-tempered, not realizing that she was ruthless enough to hire a hitman.
This woman disgusted him now.
Ruan Tianling took Jian Yufei’s hand, turned around, and left with her.
His offer for Xu Man to turn herself in was his way of showing leniency. If she did turn herself in, the law would be more lenient and she wouldn’t have to spend many years in jail.
But, she was still denying it, unwilling to admit the truth till the very end.
