Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 304
Chapter 304: Punishment
In the county jail, Ling Yun sat in a small room opposite Li Chenxuan, under the supervision of prison guards. The two looked at each other in silence. Li Chenxuan’s eyes were full of hatred, while Ling Yun looked at him calmly.
After a long silence, Li Chenxuan gritted his teeth and asked, “Are you here to gloat at my misfortune?”
After hearing his words, Ling Yun confirmed his guess and chuckled. Indeed, Li Chenxuan knew that they were switched at birth. He looked at him coldly and said, “Li Chenxuan, you have robbed me of my identity for thirty years. Isn’t it time to pay me back what you owe me?”
Li Chenxuan snorted at his words and said, “Do you think that old fool will believe you if you tell him about us? Don’t forget that I have been his most beloved son for thirty years.”
Ling Yun looked at him for a long time before saying, “In the beginning, I thought as long as you treat my father, mother, and brothers well, I don’t mind letting you live a good life with them since I lived well by myself and never thought about recognizing the Li family.”
When Li Chenxuan heard this, he frowned and asked, “What do you want to say?”
“Li Chenxuan, since you don’t appreciate my parent’s love and my brother’s kindness, then you should return everything to me.” Ling Yun said every word slowly.
Before Li Chenxuan could ask anything, Ling Yun stood up, approached him, and whispered with a hint of killing intent, “I will let you have fun in this place for a long time.”
Hearing his words, Li Chenxuan raised his head to look at him, and asked with a hint of fear, “What do you want to do?”
Ling Yun smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you die. I will ensure that you enjoy every second you spend in this place under the care of your loving inmates. Li Chenxuan, I want you to live a life worse than death. This is your punishment for hurting my parents and brothers!”
After saying that, Ling Yun turned around and left without looking back. Seeing him leaving, Li Chenxuan panicked and wanted to stop him, but was held back by the prison guards. In the end, he could only shout for a long time, but no one paid attention to him. He was dragged back to the cell by the prison guards and thrown in.
When the door was locked, he found that the inmates were looking at him with narrowed eyes and licking their lips. Seeing them walking towards him, he quickly stood up and said tremblingly as he walked backward, “What do you want to do? If you dare to come near me again, I will shout!”
One prisoner laughed and said, “You can shout all you want, no one will care.”
Li Chenxuan’s face turned pale and he begged, “No, brother, I will listen to you. Please spare me.”
After listening to his plea, the prisoner spat on the ground and said, “What I hate most are ungrateful people like you. You don’t have to worry. I won’t let you die so easily. We have a lot of time to play with you slowly.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the prisoners rushed towards Li Chenxuan and pulled him to a dark corner. Soon, Li Chenxuan’s screams, curses, and begs could be heard in the prison. Listening to this commotion, the prison guards pretended not to hear anything as he sat on his seat while drinking tea.
At the same time, Ling Yun sat in an office with a man wearing a prison guard uniform. The man looked at Ling Yun and said, “Comrade Ling, I don’t know what grudge you have with that prisoner for you to be this cruel.”
Listening to his words, Ling Yun sneered in his heart, ‘Cruel? Everything I gave him was nothing compared to how cruel he was to my father and brother.’
Ling Yun took out a thick envelope, put it on the table, and said, “Comrade Hu, thank you for your help. This is a small gift for you.”
The man knew that Ling Yun didn’t want to talk about this matter, so he stopped talking and took the envelope. When he opened it, he saw a thick stack of money inside. He smiled and said, “Comrade Ling, you once saved my daughter’s life. Without your help at that time, she might be dead now. Take this back as I repay your life-saving grace. From now on, we are even.”
Ling Yun understood that there were risks in maintaining this kind of contact with the authorities for the time being, so he did not refuse. He took the money back and said, “Comrade Hu, thank you. If you need help, you can always find me. As long as it is within my ability, I will try my best to help you. ”
The man smiled and said, “In this case, don’t I owe you another favor?”
Seeing Ling Yun’s solemn look, he sighed and said, “Okay, I will definitely come to you when the time comes.”
When he stood up to leave, Ling Yun said, “Comrade Hu, the situation in the capital is unstable. You should be more careful when doing things.”
“I understand.”
After he left, the man went to the prison and checked on Li Chenxuan’s condition. Seeing his disheveled condition, he glanced at the prisoners coldly and said, “Don’t go too far. I don’t want him to die so fast. Serve him well and make sure he doesn’t commit suicide.”
The prisoner smiled and said, “Don’t worry, boss. We will ensure that he will have a good time.”
The man nodded and took out a pack of cigarettes. He threw it to them and said, “I’ll give you another pack next month.”
The prisoners caught the cigarettes, bent down, and said in unison, “Thank you, boss!”
