A female supporting character who travels through time and has a spatial ability becomes the darling
Chapter 254 has been revised slightly.
After much thought, it seems there's only one last option left—to take a desperate gamble.
Zhang Cuihua has been suppressed by him for the past two years and dared not make any moves, but her desire for revenge has not died. As the saying goes, "the heart is reflected in the face," and lately she has become increasingly unable to maintain a flattering attitude in front of him, and only speaks ill of Xie Yicheng.
Zheng Jing could tell that she hated Yun Shu, Xie Yicheng, and everyone else involved in her son's death equally. If Xie Lao Er hadn't brought this upon himself, Zhang Cuihua's first act upon returning would probably have been to kill him to avenge her son, since he, as the father, had ultimately abandoned his son.
It was because of Xie Guolei that he ended his life in that way. How could Zhang Cuihua, who had always regarded Xie Guolei as her lifeline and pride, bear it?
However, now, the only people she can still remember are Yun Shu and a few other former educated youths.
Zheng Jing thought about it all night and finally made up his mind to give Zhang Cuihua a break, mainly because he was also frustrated and wanted to vent; he was almost going crazy.
……
Yun Shu and Xie Yicheng will hold a wedding banquet. Since the reform and opening up, the social atmosphere is not so oppressive. The country allows private enterprises, and the living standards of Chinese people have risen sharply. There won't be any things like... reporting you for eating well.
Therefore, both families decided to hold a grand wedding for Xie Yicheng and Yun Shu, and the date was set before the start of the new school year after the New Year, which was quite early, since the two of them also planned to have a honeymoon trip.
Moreover, because it had been in preparation for a while, it wasn't rushed, and it had all the necessary grandeur.
The venue was a famous restaurant in Beijing, and relatives and friends from both the Lin and Xie families, as well as Xie Yicheng's relatives, were invited.
Although Zheng Jing of the Zheng family had a conflict with Yun Shu, Zheng Jing's father did not completely break ties with the Lin family. Therefore, when the time came, the Zheng family was still able to send a gift.
So when that day came, Zheng Jing, who was suppressing a burning rage that threatened to destroy everything, arranged for someone to bring the equally crazed Zhang Cuihua to his door.
Zheng Jing wanted to ruin the wedding, so he set his sights on Xie Yicheng. Zhang Cuihua also told him to pretend to be a waiter and then assassinate Xie Yicheng on the spot. It would be best to kill a few Jiang Xiucheng as well. Killing one would be enough, killing two would be a bonus. It would definitely make Xie Yunshu heartbroken and allow Zheng Jing to take advantage of the situation.
Zheng Jing thought this was a "win-win" situation, but little did he know that Zhang Cuihua, the rural woman he had suppressed for so long, also had a free spirit.
On the surface, she obediently followed Zheng Jing's arrangements, but in reality, she had prepared a large bag of poison mixed with various rat poison, cockroach poison, and pesticides, intending to make everyone who smiled and blessed Yun Shu and Xie Yicheng today pay with their lives for her son.
When the moment came, Zhang Cuihua remained remarkably calm, deliberately waiting until the ceremony began and everyone's attention was focused on the two newlyweds, Xie Yicheng and Yun Shu, before she proceeded to poison them.
Throughout the entire venue, apart from Zheng Jing, who was waiting for Zhang Cuihua to come out and stab Xie Yicheng, no one noticed her whereabouts. But when Zheng Jing also realized that something was wrong, he realized that his last hope had also been dashed.
The wedding concluded successfully without any unexpected incidents or setbacks.
Zheng Jing's face remained ashen, like a dead man. The Zheng family, who had thought their son had let go, changed for the better, and was willing to offer their blessings, could only swallow their pride and try to smooth things over for their son.
Back in the kitchen, Zhang Cuihua, who had poisoned the food but hadn't even had a chance to divide it before the waiter brought it up, was bound up like a wriggling worm. The bowl of tofu and shrimp that she had poisoned and wasted could only be collected by the chef, who cursed and grumbled, intending to hand it over to the police as evidence.
The wedding ended, and the guests slowly dispersed. Zheng Jing's parents were almost the last to leave, drawn by their son. Zheng Jing wanted to find out some information, while his parents wanted to ease the tension between them.
Before the family of three could even open their mouths, two items were brought out from the kitchen.
One was Zhang Cuihua, who looked like a dead pig, and the other was a pot of poisonous shrimp and tofu with a frightening appearance.
Yun Shu looked at Zheng Jing's pale face and chuckled, "It's quite an achievement to come up with such a method. After all, how stupid would someone have to be to eat this...poison that smells so foul and pungent?"
Father Zheng: "What! What's going on?"
"Uncle Zheng, I'm sorry to tell you that something unfortunate has happened to your family. The police may tell you what happened today later."
As soon as Yun Shu finished speaking, several police officers entered the hotel. One of them, who looked like the captain, walked up to the group, took out his identification to prove the legality of the operation, and what he said surprised even Zheng's father, a seasoned general.
"Who is Zheng Jing? Someone has reported that you, along with Zhang Cuihua, participated in a large-scale murder case. Please come with us to cooperate with the investigation."
"Officer! What did you say?!"
Mr. Zheng was incredulous. Mrs. Zheng glanced at her son's gloomy yet calm face and realized that what the police said was probably true. She immediately fainted.
Mr. Zheng was suddenly overwhelmed and couldn't take care of his wife and children. He could only look after his wife, who had fainted in his arms, and watch as the police handcuffed their son and took him away like a criminal.
Perhaps... it's not just a resemblance.
Zheng Jing seemed to accept everything calmly. She ignored Zhang Cuihua, who was struggling wildly on the ground and whose body was bleeding from the ropes binding her, and she didn't pay much attention to her parents behind her. She just looked at Yun Shu with a resentful expression.
"I still can't understand why you just can't see me?"
"What makes him better than me? What makes him so special..."
Zheng Jing was introverted and stubborn. He suffered from this personality trait as a child and couldn't change it as an adult. He got stuck in a rut because Yun Shu pulled him back, and his unrequited love turned into hatred, ruining his life.
Hearing his almost manic roar, Yun Shu calmly interrupted him.
"It's enough that I like him."
"Zheng Jing, love cannot be forced or demanded. Otherwise... where would all these lovesick men and women come from in this world?"
"We could have been friends, but unfortunately... we have different paths and cannot work together."
Zheng was taken aback by Yun Shu's words, then suddenly gave a bitter smile: "Different paths... we can't work together?"
"We have different paths!"
Zheng was taken away, along with Zhang Cuihua. The bowl of tofu and shrimp was physical evidence, as were some people in the kitchen and the saleswoman from the supply and marketing cooperative who bought various pesticides and poisons from Zhang Cuihua; they were all witnesses.
Zhang Cuihua is undoubtedly facing a death sentence, but it's unknown how Zheng Jing will be sentenced.
