Chapter 171 Moral Kidnapping
Chapter 171 Moral Kidnapping
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Taoist Yunshang saw that Chu Ci had already made a detailed plan and was not as selfless as he had previously imagined. His heart, which had been hanging in the air, slowly settled down.
At the same time, a desire to assist Chu Ci in accomplishing this goal quietly arose in his heart.
At the same time, in Su's house.
In the courtyard where the contemporary mistress of the Su family, Yan Yaqin, Su Jinghua’s biological mother, lives.
Yan Jiaoyu slowly told the details of how Su Jinghua was frightened, as well as Chu Ci's firm assertion, and then said solemnly: "Sister, I know very well that even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance of Jinghua recovering as before, you will definitely not be willing to give up."
"So, even though I promised Jinghua that I would keep this a secret for him, I..."
When he said this, Teacher Yan's heart was instantly filled with anxiety.
First, he felt extremely distressed about his nephew's current difficult situation;
Secondly, he really despised what the Su family had done.
He had no idea whether it was right or wrong to tell this story.
Yan Yaqin also knew clearly what her brother was thinking. She understood her brother's dilemma and entanglement, and also knew his views on the Su family's actions.
However, she herself has been deeply trapped in the complex environment of the Su family in this life and it is difficult to break free.
She knew very well that she could not change the current situation much, but she had to do her best to protect her son.
Thinking of this, Yan Yaqin's eyes unconsciously revealed a firmness, a determination that was willing to do anything for her son.
But her words became gentler instead. She said slowly, "I know. This was actually heard accidentally by the servant I sent to the government school before."
"Even if Jinghua asks me about this in the future, I will stick to my statement and won't let him notice anything unusual."
"Sister, that's not what I meant." Yan Jiaoyu hurriedly tried to explain, "I'm just worried that Principal Chu's rejection of the Su family will affect you and Jinghua..."
However, at this moment, Yan Yaqin no longer had the heart to listen to his explanation.
Yan Yaqin said with a firm look: "Don't worry, I'm not one of those ignorant fools in the Su family who only knows how to intrigue."
Yan Yaqin interrupted Yan Yaqin again when Yan Jiaoyu was about to speak: "I believe that a man like Chu Shanzhang who has a sense of justice and can distinguish right from wrong would not embarrass a woman like me who is incapable of taking charge without reason."
"And, I believe that as long as I communicate with her sincerely, she should be able to understand our situation and thoughts, and will give us corresponding help and support."
At this point, Teacher Yan knew that his sister had changed after all, and she kept saying that she was not one of the ignorant people in the Su family.
However, when Teacher Yan saw the clear calculation in his sister's eyes, he couldn't help but feel helpless and sad.
After realizing this, Teacher Yan sighed deeply.
After leaving Su's house, he was confused and anxious all the way, and finally came to the "Women's College" and found Chu Ci.
Teacher Yan stared at Chu Ci, his face full of guilt, and he said sincerely and with a little self-blame: "Principal Chu, I am deeply sorry."
"I know that some of the Su family's actions are indeed inappropriate, but I really can't watch my nephew die."
"I thought that my sister... but now she seems to have fallen into some obsession and calculation."
"I know that some of my sister's actions may have caused you trouble. Here, I would like to express my sincerest apologies to you on her behalf."
Chu Ci actually had already anticipated that Yan Jiaoyu would most likely leak the relevant information. After all, it was human nature under such circumstances.
But now that he came so frankly, Chu Ci was a little surprised.
So, he deliberately tried to test her: "So, what does the teaching mean?"
"Shanzhang Chu, now that you know what the Su family is doing, it's better to be more prepared. After all, people who are close to vermilion are red, and people who are close to ink are black. It's better to be safe than sorry..."
Yan Jiaoyu was conflicted. On the one hand, he hoped that Chu Ci would take the potential threat from the Su family seriously and be prepared to deal with it.
On the other hand, he was afraid that speaking too bluntly would embarrass his sister and affect their relationship.
He struggled with these complex emotions, not knowing how to express what he meant while minimizing the negative impact on his sister.
He kept thinking in his mind, trying to find the most appropriate way of expression, but in the end it was still difficult to have the best of both worlds, which made his words seem so vague.
However, Chu Ci stood up solemnly and thanked him: "Okay, I understand. Thank you for your advice, Teacher Yan."
"I really don't deserve it, I really don't deserve it." Teacher Yan felt guilty, so how could he dare to accept Chu Ci's gift?
But for Yaqin, it is just the opposite.
As soon as she saw Chu Ci, she put on a pitiful look, knelt in front of Chu Ci, and said with tears in her eyes: "Mr. Chu, I didn't mean to bother you. But please understand the heart of a mother, right?"
Even though I was prepared because of the teachings, I never expected this to happen.
Chu Ci frowned slightly, and looking at Yan Yaqin's attitude, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, but he still said patiently: "Madam Yan, don't be so excited for now, get up first. If you have anything to say, please tell me slowly."
"No, if Shanzhang Chu doesn't agree to help us mother and son, I will never get up." Yan Yaqin seemed to have gotten used to asking for things as a victim. When she saw Chu Ci this time, she naturally used this trick out of habit.
Unfortunately, Chu Ci is not as easy to control as those people she faced before.
Chu Ci's face immediately turned cold, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, and he said in a calm but majestic tone: "Madam Su, you can come here today. I guess Instructor Yan has already told you in detail what happened before, right?"
Yan Yaqin was a little overwhelmed by Chu Ci's attitude, "I... No, Jinghua is innocent."
Chu Ci then continued expressionlessly: "Regardless of whether Su Jinghua is innocent or not. His last name is Su, and he approves of the Su family's actions from the bottom of his heart."
"And now, I solemnly say it again. The reason why the Su family has not suffered retribution for so many years is not because God does not punish us, but because the time has not come yet."
"And Su Jinghua is the retribution of the Su family. This is what they deserve."
"Madam Su, please don't try to force me in this way. I won't be swayed by your means. I have my own judgment and principles, and I won't change anything because of your unreasonable behavior."
