Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 371 Ignorance is Bliss_1

Back in the car, An Kefang blew her nose hard with a tissue, completely devoid of any vanity.

"Hey! Are you some kind of pervert? You’re clearly doing a great thing, so why make yourself out like a big villain?"

Xiao Ming discovered that no matter what, when something’s done to the extreme, it can be invincible.

Including stupidity.

His IQ couldn’t keep up with An Kefang’s train of thought, and he stared at the girl’ s shiny red nose for a long while before asking uncertainly, "How did you figure out that we’re doing a good deed?" freēnovelkiss.com

"Do I really need to specifically look for it?" An Kefang was genuinely baffled, "Reporting a heartless beast and saving a poor girl and a family, if that’s not a good deed, what is it?"

Indeed, the girl had completely misunderstood.

With a headache, he pinched the bridge of his nose and Xiao Ming said, "I want to ask, who taught you the concept that ’one can only have relations after getting married’?"

An Kefang’s cheeks blushed slightly, her gaze wary, "Why do you ask that?"

"Relax, I wouldn’t touch you even if I were beaten to death."

"What’s that supposed to mean? Are you trying to call me ugly again?"

"No, I’m afraid if I touched you, the police would arrest me for ’assaulting a mentally challenged child’."

An Kefang’s lips pouted high, "I, I know I’m not smart, but could you please stop insulting me all the time?

At least... at least give me a reason after you insult me, otherwise, I’ll never be able to learn to be smart, right?"

Xiao Ming really wanted to say he wasn’t her father and wasn’t obliged to teach her to be smart, but seeing the girl’s aggrieved look, he sighed and said, "I just want to tell you, no matter who it is, remember to go back and thank them properly.

Because someone like you, who immediately believes anything they see or hear, without that concept to protect you, might have long been devoured and tossed aside by countless men!"

An Kefang blinked her eyes, and it took her a long time to understand what he was saying, asking in surprise, "Aren’t we doing a good deed?"

She used the word "we" quite smoothly. Do you have no shame?

Mentally scoffing, Xiao Ming said, "Strictly speaking, it is indeed a good deed, but after you hear my next sentence, you’ll definitely curse me as a big villain, and you might even want to fight me to the death."

"Let’s hear it."

Xiao Ming flicked his hand, and his fingertips clamped onto a piece of paper, which was exactly the check he had given Ge Qinghe earlier.

"I lied to her. And, she definitely won’t live to see tomorrow’s sunrise."

"What?"

An Kefang was shocked, but to Xiao Ming’s surprise, the girl’s expression contained more fear than anger.

"You... You’re going to make a deal with Lin Jingyou?

How can you do this? Ge Qinghe’s life has already been so tragic, don’t you have any conscience at all?"

"Miss An, please get it straight, the ’tragic’ story you know was written by me.

Ge Qinghe just read it out loud."

An Kefang was stunned again, and then tears started to flow.

"Mr. Xiao, can you tell me the whole story, without making me guess anymore, please? I’m begging you, okay?"

No matter how hard he pressed his head, he couldn’t learn, a piece of rotten wood cannot be carved, Xiao Ming felt nothing but helplessness.

"The situation is actually not complicated at all.

Ge Qinghe was indeed Lin Jingyou’s hidden mistress, but that’s not the reason for the Ge family’s disaster.

Her father, the street vendor, his real name is Ge Tiancheng, who was born into a family of jade artisans, and a member of the Jiuzhou Ancient Appraisal Association.

Because of his straightforward nature, he objected to the Association’s forgery and smuggling and secretly began to gather evidence to expose them, unfortunately, he was discovered.

The Hao Family sent people to beat him into a disabled state, turned his eldest son into an idiot, and even took his toddler son away; unable to bear it all, he could only entrust the evidence to his daughter, Ge Qinghe.

What he didn’t know was that Ge Qinghe had already been in bed with Hao Xiangyu.

After getting the evidence from her, as a reward, Hao Xiangyu offered her to Lin Jingyou, where she has remained favored to this day.

Meanwhile, Ge Tiancheng thought his daughter was dead, unaware that she was living less than three kilometers away in an upscale neighborhood from where he ran his stall.

With his wife having gone mad, his eldest son in need of care, he didn’t dare to fight against the Hao family for justice; he could only rely on his carving skills to run a stall, maintain a livelihood, and hold out hope that he might find his younger son with missing child notices.

So, Ge Qinghe must die!

If she doesn’t, I can’t be at peace, nor can I openly admit to myself that I have done a good deed."

After saying all this in one breath, Xiao Ming looked at An Kefang with a touch of pity and asked, "Do you now understand what I said to you before coming here?"

Some things are not meant to exist in this world for you.

Ignorance is bliss.

An Kefang really understood, and she even regretted insisting on following Xiao Ming.

Because her heart ached now, even more than last night when she found out the true nature of Hao Xiangyu.

She couldn’t comprehend, to what extent the four great families, including Hao, Wu, An, and Chang, were evil to treat a family of women and children with such cruelty?

She also couldn’t understand, just how heartless must a person be to ignore their parents’ disabilities, their brother’s idiocy and disappearance, all for a bit of indulgence?

How deep can human greed run?

And how dark can a human heart become?
