Qiu Li, who was opposite, stood up angrily, grabbed the girl’s collar, and pulled her closer to him: “Lie! You are lying!”
However, all excuses paled in comparison to the ironclad truth.
The detective pulled them away and subdued Qiu Li.
Jiang Yu, on the other hand, calmly raised her hands and asked the police to handcuff her.
At that moment, this man who never changed his expression even when a mountain collapsed before him finally couldn’t hold on any longer.
His eyes turned red, he struggled to stand up, pulled her out of the interrogation room, and wanted to take her away from here.
The policemen rushed forward and tried to pull the two people away.
Qiu Li hugged Jiang Yu tightly and protected her. Even at the last moment, he wanted to protect her.
She was his treasure, something precious that he wanted to protect throughout his life.
Officer Liu had already taken out his gun as he said to Qiu Li: “Stop resisting needlessly. The law will give you a fair judgment.”
“It’s not her, it’s not her fault.”
Qiu Li’s expression was tense, and he shouted in a suppressed voice: “Don’t take her away, she’s afraid of the dark, and she can’t live alone in a place like a cell. Please, I beg you.”
Qiu Li knew that it would be difficult to recover, and all his reason disappeared. He knelt upright in front of everyone, pleading with them with all his pride——
“Let me take her place, okay? I’ll go to jail for her, die for her…”
No one would not be moved by this scene. They had been in contact with Qiu Li for so long and knew how difficult this guy was to deal with.
His heart had a wall built of very thick ice, which was difficult to break through.
But now, he was kneeling in front of everyone, pleading for the woman he loved, showing his fragile and soft side.
Even though he knew it was impossible, he did it anyway.
Officer Liu looked away and couldn’t bear to look anymore: “Qiu Li, get up and be decent.”
Jiang Yu knelt in front of him with red eyes: “A Li, stand up…”
Qiu Li only shook his head and hugged her hard, as if he wanted to tie her to his side forever.
“I will kill for you, I will go to jail for you.” He asked in a hissing voice next to her ear: “Aren’t your dreams still unfulfilled? Aren’t you unwilling to give in? Don’t you want a father? Why are you coming back!”
“No matter how many times I go through life, from beginning to end, only you are my most precious crystal ball.”
Qiu Li hugged her hard and protected her like a wolf guarding its food, not letting anyone take her away.
Snapping his fingers with his right hand, he began to hypnotize again.
Jiang Yu immediately held his hand and stopped his behaviour.
Officer Liu said: “If you dare to hypnotize us in the police station, you will be held guilty even if you are not guilty.”
Jiang Yu held his face and said to him: “A Li, I’m not afraid, but you have to wait for me.”
Qiu Li still couldn’t accept it. He didn’t let anyone touch Jiang Yu or take her away. Until the detectives pulled him away forcefully, he was still struggling. Finally, he was given a sedative to calm him down, and then he stopped.
He lay on the ground, looking at the woman’s back with her hands cuffed as she was taken away, his eyes were full of despair and tears were streaming down his face.
A professional psychiatrist evaluated Jiang Yu and diagnosed her with depression and mild mental illness. At the same time, police investigation also confirmed that she had suffered sexual stimulation and violence from Huo Cheng.
The police also reconstructed the scene of the crime and determined that Jiang Yu stabbed Huo Cheng in the abdomen with a knife while suffering during the violence. It was not considered legitimate defence, as it was excessive defence.
The judge took these many factors into consideration and finally sentenced Jiang Yu to three years in prison.
This was a very light punishment. Qiu Li rented a house next to the prison and would visit her every day, bringing her lots of snacks and daily necessities.
At first, he could only see her through the glass window, unable to see or touch her. Qiu Li’s eyes were glued to her. Every time she left for a long time, he would lie down by the glass window and look at the place where she disappeared.
Later, Jiang Yu performed well, and after approval, the meeting between the two was changed to a meeting room with a small table.
Every time Qiu Li came over, he felt very heavy and would not let go. Jiang Yu tried to comfort him by saying——
“Look, if you took the blame for me, you would have gotten a life sentence. I was guilty of excessive defence, so I was only sentenced to three years. Qiu Li, you are so stupid.”
“Even if it only lasts for a day, half a day, or a minute…” He held her hand tightly, brought it to his lips and kissed her heartily: “I can’t bear to let you go.”
“You stupid.”
Jiang Yu’s throat was sore and choked with sobs. Apart from these words, she couldn’t say anything more.
“Is anyone bullying you inside? Are you afraid at night? Are you eating well?”
He asked every day, and he never missed anything. He was so uneasy.
“If you can’t bear it, tell me.”
“What’s the use of telling you?”
“I’ll find a way.” Qiu Li said in a deep voice, “I’ll find a way to get you out.”
Jiang Yu reached out and patted his face gently: “I’m fine now. You’re not allowed to say such things! And I behaved well and my sentence was reduced. Please don’t harm me.”
Qiu Li remained silent and nodded obediently.
Because Jiang Yu performed well, she was released after two years. On the day she was released from prison, Qiu Li dressed up well, shaved his beard, wore a crisp suit, drove a Bentley, and held a little daisy she liked while waiting for her.
Jiang Yu took her luggage, thanked the prison guard beside her, walked out of the prison, looked at the blue sky, and breathed in the fresh air.
She knew that at this moment she was completely free, not just out of prison, but out of the life imprisoned by Huo Cheng in the past and was heading for a new future.
She saw Qiu Li waiting not far away, couldn’t restrain her joy, and ran towards him.
Qiu Li caught her steadily, hugged her and spun her around, then kissed her, wanting to put her in the car and take her home right away.
Jiang Yu was sitting in the passenger seat and looked at the man next to her. The man was already distracted and his body had strange reactions.
She giggled, and Qiu Li laughed too. While laughing, he covered her mouth to prevent her from laughing again.
Jiang Yu had lived a very happy life.
But now, she knew that no matter how the future was written, as long as she was by this man’s side, all endings would be the same.
He was her greatest luck.
“A Li, I really like the dream you weaved for me. There were two set of parents, Bu Xi, Xiao Cheng and Xiao Shu, Knowledge App, and many, many beautiful things…”
“Then why did you have to spend your whole life thinking about the key mechanism that triggers dream awakening?”
“Because all these good things are related to you. Even if you go to jail, even if you are sentenced to life imprisonment, or even the death penalty, it doesn’t matter. I choose you in reality.”
Qiu Li shook his head: “You have already lived this life. Wouldn’t it be boring to do it again?”
“Not boring at all.”
“In that case.”
Qiu Li stopped the car at the intersection, and then put a bright diamond ring on her hand that had been prepared for a long time. There was no proposal or ceremony, everything was as natural as it could be.
After putting it on, he kissed her hand reverently——
“Sister, marry me again.”
“Sister will marry you a hundred times!”
