Chapter 449: Retribution
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Zhu family in Beichuan City had been having a hard time recently, and so had the Cui family. After all, the two families were in-laws. Previously, the Cui family had made use of the Zhu family’s influence in their business. Of course, they had also sponsored the Zhu family a lot. Therefore, the two families were involved in benefits.
After Zhu Dechang was punished, Zhu Dekun was originally only being talked to and had not reached the point of being arrested. He had always been hoping for a fluke. After all, the Zhu family had been in business for so many years and had connections. Perhaps everything would be fine.
But soon, Zhu Dechang was prosecuted. He was charged for prostitution, embezzlement, and bribes. He disregarded human lives. He was charged with three crimes and was directly sentenced to the death penalty. His personal assets were confiscated, and his political rights were revoked for the rest of his life.
The Zhu family collapsed in an instant.
At this moment, Cui Li went straight to the Discipline Inspection Commission to expose Zhu Dekun’s crime. He had an affair during his marriage and messed around with women. She even gave strong evidence involving his lover and son. There was even a video of them having sex.
Of course, this was a matter of morals. It was not a crime punishable by death. At most, he would be dismissed from public office.
However, another piece of evidence of corruption and bribery was also released. It was from a former engineering project. Not only was there a transfer record, but there was also a recording of the conversation.
This time, the matter was huge again.
As a public official, it was very serious to cheat during marriage.
Zhu Dekun was quickly arrested and stripped of his position. Then, he was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
The two elders of the Zhu family fell ill in a hurry and passed away not long after.
Zhu Dekun was in complete despair because he knew that there was only one person who could show these things, and that was his wife, Cui Li.
But anger was useless.
Before officially serving his sentence, he asked to see Cui Li.
Cui Li came over to see him.
“Ah Li, why?” Zhu Dekun looked at Cui Li as if he didn’t recognise her anymore.
“Zhu Dekun, why do you think?” Cui Li’s eyes were cold. “If you’re heartless, can’t I be unjust?”
“Ruining me, ruining this family. You really—”
“This family was already destroyed when you betrayed our marriage.” Cui Li interrupted him. “Zhu Dekun, you destroyed this family and the Zhu family.” Zhu Dekun’s face twisted.
“I have good news for you. After your lover found out that you were sentenced, she left Beichuan overnight with your son.” Cui Li suddenly smiled. “As far as I know, that Zhu Yiming has nothing to do with you.”
“Impossible.” Zhu Dekun suddenly stood up.
“Heh.” Cui Li took out a paternity test report from her bag and threw it in front of the other party. “Read it yourself.”
“Impossible,” Zhu Dekun roared.
“Haha.” Cui Li laughed. “Zhu Dekun, you don’t care about your own children, but you care about someone unrelated to you. There’s no one more stupid than you in the world.”
Zhu Dekun suddenly sat down on a chair.
“It’s up to you whether you believe me or not.” Cui Li laughed until tears came out of her eyes. “Actually, I’m even more stupid. Back then, my parents wanted Cui Na to marry you, but I took a fancy to you and risked my life to snatch it from you. In the end? I snatched an ingrate. Haha, retribution, it’s all retribution…”
Zhu Dekun’s face turned ashen. Actually, he believed it because if Yiming was really his son, Cui Li would have made a move long ago..
