Chapter 925: Don’t Worry, I’ll Help You
The house had been sold, so the Zhang family naturally couldn’t stay in the house anymore. Zhang Jiasen’s mother saw that the house had a lot of furniture and wanted to carry them all away.
However, Zhang Jiasen’s father berated her and said that these things no longer belonged to them. Moreover, where would they even put these things?
Zhang Jiasen’s mother’s eyes were red with heartache and her facial muscles trembled from pain. These things all belonged to her son.
The Zhang family rented out a house in a small neighborhood to wait until Zhang Jiasen’s matter was resolved before heading back to the countryside.
During this time, Zhang Jiasen’s father’s back had become much more hunched over. As the head of the family, he bore a lot of pressure, especially since something like this had happened with the son he was most proud of. When the Zhang family returned to the village, they would have to face the villagers’ side glances and remarks.
How did things end up like this?
The day before the court session, Ning Shu went to the police station to visit Zhang Jiasen. This time, she almost didn’t recognize him.
Zhang Jiasen was wearing prisoner garments. His stubble was unkept and he had become much skinner. His eyes were bloodshot and his hair that used to be combed back in perfect order was now hanging over his forehead messily, almost covering his eyes.
The current Zhang Jiasen looked very gloomy and fretful, like a trapped beast.
When Zhang Jiasen saw Miao Miaomiao, he was very stirred up, which made his eyes become even more bloodshot. “Miaomiao, why did you come only now?”
“After you were arrested, the company fell into disarray. I went to stabilize the situation.” Ning Shu asked Zhang Jiasen, “How have you been?”
Zhang Jiasen rubbed his forehead. He wanted to reach out and take Ning Shu’s hand, but they were separated by the bulletproof glass. Zhang Jiasen looked at Ning Shu gently, “Miaomiao, I can explain things to you. As for the house in Tangchen, I bought it because I wanted to give you a home. I had that house built for you.”
Ning Shu: ...
“Miaomiao, you have to believe me.” Zhang Jiasen did his best to suppress the restless beast inside his heart.
As of now, Miaomiao was the only one that could save him.
Ning Shu looked towards Zhang Jiasen with a wronged expression. “But Secretary Xue was the one living in the house in Tangchen. Did you really buy that house for me? It only had your name on it.”
Zhang Jiasen’s brows furrowed and his eyes turned completely red as he stared at Ning Shu. “Was this your dad’s idea? Your dad had been looking into the account books recently.”
This past month, Zhang Jiasen had been thinking over things repeatedly, and the conclusion he came to was that it was Miao Miaomiao’s father, Miao Zhi, who sent him in here. Furthermore, based on the police’s attitude, it was clear that they had concrete evidence on him.
Miao Zhi had been behind all of this. Perhaps Miao Miaomiao had also known about it, but Zhang Jiasen was betting on Miao Miaomiao’s feelings for him. However, it was clear that these feelings couldn’t be counted on.
“Miaomiao, I...” Zhang Jiasen wanted to come up with an explanation, but he didn’t know what to say.
“Miaomiao, please believe me,” said Zhang Jiasen weakly.
Ning Shu said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you.”
Joy flashed across Zhang Jiasen’s face, then Ning Shu said, “I sold our wedding home to raise money to help you.”
The joy on Zhang Jiasen’s face instantly stiffened, then he furrowed his brows. “Miaomiao, how could you sell the house? That’s our wedding home.”
Zhang Jiasen’s lips trembled. His face was ashen as he stared at Ning Shu. Suddenly, he smiled bitterly. “Miao Miaomiao, you did this on purpose?”
“What do you mean? Father-in-law had also agreed to selling the house,” replied Ning Shu in a surprised tone.
All the energy seemed to have been drained from Zhang Jiasen’s body. He truly had nothing left.
