Chapter 668: Rest in Peace

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang An would not really let Wu Xue turn herself in. She was not worthy of any leniency under the law.

If she hadn’t stood up for the girl today, she would have gotten away with it for the rest of her life. She would never have remembered that a poor girl had died because of her.

The parents of the dead girl would forever be in grief. No one would remember this except them.

That was why Jiang An had dealt with this matter so forcefully. She knew very well what Wu Xue was thinking. Just like Tan Si, who had bullied her back then, she was evil from the bottom of her heart and would never know how to repent.

Wu Xue sat paralyzed on the ground. She had already forgotten to cry. She knew that she was finished.

“I didn’t kill her. She jumped off the building herself,” Wu Xue muttered.

Jiang An didn’t want to say anything else. Wu Xue wouldn’t feel guilty because of her words. It was useless to say anything.

Her resolute words shocked everyone present. They didn’t expect Jiang An to really blow this matter up and didn’t care if it would affect the interests of the families in Sea City.

It could be seen that the Jiang family had a deep foundation. There was no need to care about them.

Sophie’s face broke into a smile. She had finally brought justice for the dead girl.

She walked to Jiang An’s side. “An’an, that girl can rest in peace.”

However, Jiang An did not look happy. She sighed and said, “If Wu Xue’s parents had raised their child well, such a tragedy would not have happened.”

Of course, Wu Xue was a murderer. Her crime was unforgivable, but she was able to be where she was today because of her parents’ pampering.

They only knew how to make their child happy and do their best to give her everything, but they did not teach her to be a good person.

Wu Xue naturally became lawless. Later on, she took pleasure in bullying others. When her parents found out, they only cared about cleaning up their child’s mess.

They didn’t care how sad the people who were bullied would be. They wouldn’t be able to get over it for the rest of their lives.

They had a lot to do with the girl’s death. Jiang An knew that the law could not pursue Wu Xue’s parents, but she did not intend to let these two people off.

At this moment, Wu Xue suddenly raised her head and glared fiercely at Jiang An. “It’s you. If you hadn’t appeared today, this wouldn’t have happened!”

Jiang An was not surprised by her words at all. She even had a premonition. After all, Wu Xue would never realize that it was she who had done something wrong.

She looked at Wu Xue. “From the moment you started bullying others, this day was destined to come. Even if I didn’t come today, someone would expose you sooner or later. You’ve forgotten what you’ve done, but that girl’s parents will always remember it.”

“The truth will not be buried by time. The girl’s soul is watching you.”

Jiang An stared straight at Wu Xue and said the last sentence, scaring her into a ball. She looked around in fear, as if someone was really following her.

Jiang An’s face was filled with mockery. She herself was clearly more terrifying than evil spirits, yet she was afraid of those illusory things.

The police quickly rushed to the banquet and took Wu Xue away. Wu Xue’s parents cried and chased after her.

“We’ve seen how Sea City treats its guests. We’ll go back first,” Jiang An said and left with Sophie.

The banquet had just started. She chose to leave at this time because she was dissatisfied with the banquet.

Everyone present was dumbfounded. Back then, they had thought that Jiang An was still young. It was fine even if they indulged the younger generation to take her down a notch. Even if the other party was unhappy, they would just comfort her.

In this way, the families in Sea City could suppress the Jiang family. As for the consequences of offending the Jiang family, they had never thought about it at all.

They did not believe from the bottom of their hearts that the Jiang family would really give the position of the family head to Jiang An. In any case, the one who would become the family head in the end would be Jiang An’s older brother. It was fine to bully Jiang An.

They did not expect Jiang An to be a hard rock. Not only did they fail to bully her, but they were also beaten up.

These people hurriedly wanted to persuade Jiang An to stay. At least, they had to wait until the banquet ended before leaving. Otherwise, the families in Sea City would lose all their face.

Jiang An didn’t care about these people’s reputation. If it weren’t for the fact that she wanted to boost Sophie’s popularity, she wouldn’t have attended such a banquet casually. Moreover, if these people wanted to play tricks, then don’t blame her for being merciless.

Jiang An dragged Sophie out without giving anyone a chance. This banquet could not help Sophie, so there was no point in staying any longer.

“An’an, I’m really sorry. If you didn’t want to help me, you wouldn’t have come here.” Sophie was very sorry.

Jiang An shook her head. “This has nothing to do with you. Whether I come or not, they will look down on me. This time, I can let them know that I’m not easy to bully.”

“Besides, we got justice for a girl and made the murderer pay..”
