Chapter 288
Jiang Chujing was soon imprisoned after Jiang Mengyao was arrested. During the short trial, Jiang
Mengyao confessed everything quickly.
Jiang Chujing, on the other hand, had been denying all the charges with lies even when faced with a lie
detector. Her high mental diathesis surprised everyone.
She no longer felt guilty of any evil deeds of hers since she had done too much wrong. She felt numb
to everything, lying to others in an extremely calm tone as if she was telling the truth.
Out of everyone''s expectation, Chen Bo, who had invented the DH23 poison, turned out to be the
breakthrough in the case. This famous professor at the Affiliated University of the First Hospital in J
City would inevitably be brought down from the pedestal.
Jiang Mengyao was not surprisingly sentenced to death with the progress of the case while Jiang
Chujing''s trial continued to be postponed. Everyone was waiting for Li Han''s decision until the day the
case was closed.
He told the person in charge calmly that everything would be carried out following the normal
procedure.
Jiang Chujing was sentenced to death. Feeling sorry for Jiang Chujing''s parents, Li Han couldn''t watch
her die. However, that didn''t mean he would let her go. Jiang Chujing didn''t regret what she had done
at all and thus didn''t deserve forgiveness.
The verdict was changed into life imprisonment. Li Han provided her with a single room in prison and
the same medical treatment from another team of doctors, excluding George.
However, all of this meant nothing to Jiang Chujing since she just moved from one cage to another.
And this time, Li Han wouldn''t be there for her anymore.
She kept applying for Li Han''s visit but never received any answer.
He wouldn''te.
Ever since she realized this, her health started to degenerate at a terrifyingly fast speed. At first, she
wished that Li Han woulde to see her after knowing her condition.
However, no one ever visited her. She had been forgotten by everyone, left alone in such a narrow and
damp room. Every minute of this miserable life made her want to kill herself.
And she actually killed herself on a night after six months, out of everyone''s expectation.
No one knew what she was thinking at herst moment and how she managed to hide a knife in her
sleeve while eating.
This woman, who had brought countless troubles and contradictions, finally ended her life in a tragic
way by shing her wrist.
She was right. Li Han was the source of every feeling she had in her life. There was no point in living
without him.
She had been captured by this twisted love for her entire life until thest second.
Li Han was smoking on the balcony at home when he heard her death. His courtyard was covered in
lush green vegetation at the end of summer. This was a season of vitality but all he felt was depression.
Jiang Chujing was dead. Li Han wasn''t sure what feeling he had when he heard this. Maybe he didn''t
feel anything at all since he had foreseen this ending.
When he recalled their past, he realized he had never really known her. Jiang Chujing had been
admiring him and even begging him for his love, which gave people a false impression that Li Han was
in the dominant position in this rtionship. However, the truth was Li Han had always been the
passive one who struggled to run away from Jiang Chujing''s pestering.
The funeral was simple. Either the ugliness and the hatred in this rtionship or those seemingly
happy moments would just disappear like bubbles.
The dead could not be brought back to life. This exhausting farce finally came to the end.
[...]
On the other side of the ocean, Shu Tian heard about Jiang Chujing''s death from Meng Shichuan two
days after the incident.
The woman, who had put Shu Tian in danger so many times, died like this.
Shu Tian had mixed feelings, not knowing how to react to this news. She didn''t feel sad or sorry.
Neither could she find any pleasure of revenge in her heart. She just sat there in peace with a tight
chest.
She had never expected Jiang Chujing to end her life so easily. In Shu Tian''s opinion, a vicious woman
like Jiang Chujing would try her best to get what she wanted until thest moment of her life.
To Shu Tian''s surprise, Jiang Chujing, a stubborn and paranoid woman, killed herself.
Shu Tian suddenly figured out that everyone in this world, including the viins who seemed to care
about nothing, had his or her own weakness.
As Shu Tian stared out the window in a daze, Meng Shichuan walked slowly towards her and covered
her shoulders with a thin nket of pure wool. "Don''t think too much. Have a rest in bed."
She was almost eight months pregnant and the due date wasing. The family hired a nanny and a
doctor to take care of her at home. In a few days, she would go to the hospital and wait for delivery. It
was no good for her health to be bothered by those things.
Shu Tian looked down at her bulging abdomen which had been t when she came here.
As the fetus grew bigger, the increasing weight caused her ankles to swell. Her whole body was
bloating. A pit would be left on her skin every time she pressed her finger on it.
Suffering from a strong pregnancy reaction, she found it extremely difficult to take food, especially
during the period of 3 to 6 months when she relied on glucose and various nutrition needles to maintain
alive.
Shu Tian couldn''t work while pregnant so she had been financially supported by Meng Shichuan in the
past few months. Therefore, she always felt a little embarrassed in front of him.
In the past six months, Shu Tian had a better understanding of this man. He was mysterious but indeed
a gentleman who didn''t take advantage of her terrible situation or ask her for anything. They didn''t
spend time with each other frequently. Meng Shichuan came here once or twice a week, mostly at the
weekend, and went on business trips on weekdays. Intentionally or unintentionally, he kept a distance
from her so that she wouldn''t feel offended.
Shu Tian read books onw in her free time, preparing for the bar exam in Ennd after the baby was
born.
The only thing she was happy about in this torment was that, as she was looking forward to seeing her
baby, she didn''t think of Li Han as often as before. Even if she did asionally, his face would only
sh through her mind for seconds and disappear quickly.
"Thank you, Meng Shichuan." Shu Tian said it solemnly with sincere gratitude.
Meng Shichuan was standing beside her. From this angle, Shu Tian''s skin was fair and soft. Perhaps it
had something to do with her pregnancy. Her face turned plumper and more smooth than before. Meng
Shichun could see her slender neck and delicate facial features with her hair tied up. She was the most
beautiful pregnant woman he had ever seen.
That was why he didn''t dare to live with her, afraid to lose control of himself and hurt her. By going on a
business trip and focusing on work, he tried to distract his attention from her.
Fortunately, he was a man with great self-control.
"I''ll send someone to take you to the hospital for delivery in a few days. You can rx and have a good
rest there. Don''t think about anything else," he whispered to her, covering up a trace of restlessness in

his heart.
Stroking her abdomen, Shu Tian looked into the distance. After a long time of silence, she said in a
choked voice, "This baby survived because of you. He will remember this for the rest of his life."
Touched by her words, Meng Shichuan felt like his heart was being tugged. Somehow, it didn''t hurt but
made him itchy.
Tenderness shed in his eyes as he gave her a smile. "I saved him because of you. You should thank
yourself for that."
Shu Tian''s eyes turned red with an urge to cry. Living in a foreign country alone was hard. Meng
Shichuan''s wordsforted her heart, which had been suffering from anxiety, like a warm current
flowing into it.
She couldn''t help but pray to god. Please give all her luck to her baby so that he coulde to this
world healthy and safe.
