Chapter 1175: Chapter 373 Kill that Scum
Si Nier ultimately did not follow Wu’s back to the Wu family, even the clothes and shoes Wu’s had made for her were all returned. As if she truly wanted to sever ties with the Wu family, she continued to be Liyu.
Wu’s held a large bundle and wept loudly, eventually walking away, looking back with every three steps, persuaded by Liu Qingqing. Dani also felt hurt, unwillingly holding Si Nier’s hand, trying to forcibly pull her back home.
Si Nier did not shake off her hand, but resolutely clung to Lixiu’s sleeve, not moving an inch. Her heart still harbored some lingering affection for this eldest sister who had once tried her best to protect her. However, these few strands of affection were not enough to support her return to that home.
Even though that home no longer had the cruel old woman, no one would sell her again, and there was no need to endure beatings every day... but the harm had already been done. She could not convince herself to return to that home, as it would constantly remind her that she was the one who had been abandoned!
It was better for everyone that they parted ways. She was afraid, afraid that one day she would no longer be able to contain the nearly mad beast in her heart and commit irredeemable acts against them.
The Mo Family respected Si Nier’s decision, no one persuading her to return to the Wu family, and continued to treat her as Liyu, just as before.
"Sigh, I had hoped that after all the hardships, the family could finally reunite today. I did not expect it to turn out this way."
Liu Tinglan did not have any dealings with the Wu family. It was not appropriate for her to be there, an outsider in such a situation. She had been reading in the Mo Family’s study and had not gone to the backyard to watch the family matter. Now, hearing the whole story from Mo Yan, she couldn’t help but lament.
"No one doesn’t want to live with their loved ones. If Little Yu doesn’t want to, it can only mean that the hurt she suffered in these past years was too deep. Forcing herself to go back would only make her feel worse. It’s better to let things take their course. When she is ready to let go of the past, then she can go back. Only then can they live together without any misgivings."
That was Mo Yan’s stance on the matter. Nobody who hadn’t experienced what Si Nier had gone through could stand on the moral high ground and accuse her.
Liu Tinglan thought of something and said through gritted teeth, "The most detestable are those who abused Little Yu. If only they had been a bit kinder to Little Yu, even if just hungry without the beatings, she wouldn’t have become like this! I hope I never find out who they are, or I’ll curse them every day, wishing them dead."
If it had been any other time, Mo Yan would have laughed at such words. But knowing from Xue tuanzi how Little Yu was brutally treated by that sadistic man in the weaving factory, she couldn’t find it funny. She wished she could curse that sadist right now, doom him to the deepest hell after death, condemned to eternal unrest.
Mo Yan’s expression turned frighteningly dark, startling Liu Tinglan, "Yanyan, what’s wrong with you?"
"Huh~ It’s nothing, just feeling very upset!" Mo Yan took a deep breath and asked her friend, "If you knew who abused Little Yu, would you want to take revenge and enact justice for heaven?"
"Of course!" Liu Tinglan nodded without hesitation, "How can such people be considered human? Killing them would be letting them off lightly. If I were a heroine in a story, I would certainly enact justice for heaven, stealthily killing him." Those who could inflict such harm on a child under ten years old are worse than beasts, a blight on humanity, better off dead.
Mo Yan paused, her thoughts stirring, as she forcefully suppressed the murderous intent within her. She counter-asked, "Why not choose to inform the authorities? Letting the Government punish the wicked would be more justifiable and wouldn’t dirty your own hands, right?"
On hearing this, Liu Tinglan replied seriously, "Reporting to the authorities is certainly the simplest and most trouble-free method, but my father once told me that the Government’s decision to punish someone sometimes does not depend on whether the person is guilty. Similarly, if that evil person has powerful support behind them, what can the Government do to them? It’s better to deal with it secretly and directly kill the person, make it as gruesome as possible. That’s likely to deter more evildoers."
Of course, she didn’t have the ability to kill someone unnoticed, nor the courage to actually kill anyone. Playing the vigilante, drawing a sword to help when witnessing injustice, was something she could only imagine while reading stories.
Mo Yan reflected and ultimately had to admit that her friend’s approach was right. The owner behind that weaving factory had been looked into by Xiao Ruiyuan and truly had some connections, related to a certain Minister in the court. Trying to act against the weaving factory through the Government was clearly not the wise choice.
