A chilling scream pierced the night sky, causing Hei Dou Niang to sit up abruptly, retreating in fear. It was then she realized that a rope was tightly wrapped around her neck. The more she tried to pull away, the tighter it became, making it nearly impossible for her to breathe.
"You useless coward!" Hei Dou Niang managed to choke out those words with great difficulty.
"Yes, it's me!"
Wang Jianjun's once handsome face was now smeared with blood, which trickled down his cheeks, creating a particularly gruesome sight. He calmly pulled out a small bottle of liquor from his pocket and mixed it with the blood from Hei Dou Die as he took a swig.
"You actually killed him, you beast!"
Hei Dou Niang attempted to lunge at Wang Jianjun in a fit of rage, but he yanked on the rope suddenly, causing her to roll her eyes back and nearly lose consciousness. However, Wang Jianjun didn’t want her to die so easily; he didn’t pull the rope too tight.
Sitting on the edge of the bed with his back against the wall, he took several deep swigs of liquor. The fiery drink made him tear up as he muttered to himself.
"Li Xiu Zhen, even though your man is crippled now, he still has some use, right? But from now on, life will be hard for you. Those two little brats will surely be a handful. Without their father, their lives won’t be easy either. Li Xiu Zhen, if you find someone suitable in the future, just marry him. If you still think of me in your heart, make sure to bring me a bottle of liquor during the holidays! Forget it; I don’t want any liquor anymore. I’m afraid your future husband won’t like it and might treat you poorly. Li Xiu Zhen, my dear, I can’t bear to part with you all... truly can’t bear it!"
Wang Jianjun cried uncontrollably as he lifted his head and gulped down more liquor. With a sudden forceful tug on the rope, it tightened instantly around Hei Dou Niang’s neck. She had long since lost her breath and her face turned dark blue from suffocation.
"Hahaha! Killing someone is just a matter of hitting the ground lightly. Eighteen years later, I’ll still be a good man!"
Wang Jianjun had initially thought about taking his own life but refrained from doing so. It wasn’t that he feared death; rather, he couldn’t bear to leave this world without seeing his wife and children one last time.
The neighbors next door could hear everything clearly through the thin wall separating them from the Hei Dou family. They were so frightened that they didn’t dare sleep all night.
The next morning, Wang Jianjun was taken away by the police who had come from town with handcuffs on his wrists.
Li Xiu Zhen cried heart-wrenchingly while the villagers spoke in favor of Wang Jianjun. However, regardless of whether Hei Dou Niang had gone too far or not, Wang Jianjun’s act of murder was an undeniable fact. Right is right; wrong is wrong—he had to accept the law's judgment.
"Officer, Wang Zhiqing is a good man! You can't take him away; he has two children who can't speak!"
"Yes, Officer! Wang Zhiqing used to hunt in the mountains, always thinking of providing for the villagers. A person as good as him wouldn't resort to this unless he was pushed to the brink!"
"Being a good person is one thing; committing a crime is another. Please don't interfere with our work!"
Two police officers grabbed Wang Jianjun's arms and pushed him into the police car.
"Thank you all for speaking up for me. I, Wang Jianjun, have no regrets now. I ask that you do not make things difficult for my wife and children. I appreciate everyone here," he called out, sticking his head out to address the crowd.
"Li Xiu Zhen, my dear Li Xiu Zhen, take care of yourself and the kids! I’m sorry for what I've put you through. I will repay your kindness by working hard! If you meet a good man, marry him; don’t wait for me!"
Wang Jianjun knew that this was a death sentence and that he would face execution.
"Alright, enough! Let's go!"
The officers got into the car, and it drove off into the distance.
