Chapter 739: It Will Never Happen Again
Seeing that Li Chenxu was about to get up and leave, Li's father disregarded his own pain and scrambled to grab Li Chenxu's trouser leg, pleading incessantly.
Only when people truly face death will they feel like Li's father is now.
What does all that hatred he felt for Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu matter? As long as he can live, he'd be willing to do anything for Li Chenxu, even if Li Chenxu wanted him to be his slave!
I never imagined that Mr. Li would be so willing to abandon his dignity just to survive.
He felt a pang of sadness, but the thought of his father's future fate brought him a sudden surge of satisfaction.
Li Chenxu looked at his father for a few seconds, then bent down and patted his father's face twice, saying with a deep meaning, "No matter what, we are father and son, and your blood still flows in my veins. Even if you did such a wrong thing, I will not really kill you. Don't worry, I won't let you die. You will live well, live until you die of old age."
This should have been the answer that Li's father wanted most, but when he looked at Li Chenxu like this, a chill ran up from the soles of his feet, and the feeling of being in an ice cellar made him freeze in place.
He dared not think about whether Li Chenxu truly wanted to let him off this time, or whether something more terrifying than death awaited him.
"Chen Xu...please, just let me go this time, okay? Please, please!"
This time, no matter how much Li's father pleaded, he did not stop. He had said what needed to be said and done what needed to be done.
As Li's father's son for so many years, Li Chenxu knew his temperament all too well. This man was petty and vindictive, yet extremely afraid of death. His actions just now had probably left an indelible and terrifying memory in the other man's mind.
This time, Mr. Li is probably really scared.
He wanted Li's father to carry this shadow all the way into prison, where, apart from a small number of people who were sentenced for unintentional crimes, the majority were genuine, ruthless, and desperate criminals.
If someone like Li's father goes inside, he won't have an easy time even without Li Chenxu's intervention.
Moreover, Li Chenxu has now made up his mind to be ruthless. Once Li's father goes to jail, he'll be severely injured, if not killed.
The policeman stood anxiously outside the door, fearing that Li Chenxu might lose his temper and harm his father. However, after waiting for a while, he didn't hear any painful cries, only the father's pleas.
However, the longer Li Chenxu stayed inside, the more anxious she became.
So when the police saw Li Chenxu come out, they breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put on a smile as they looked at Li Chenxu and asked, "Mr. Li, have you finished dealing with everything?"
"That's about it. I've spoken with your people before. I hope my father's sentence can be reduced, preferably not the death penalty, but life imprisonment."
Actually, kidnapping Mu Xiaoyu alone is not enough to sentence Li's father to death. The key issue is that during the days Li's father was detained, the police did not understand Li Chenxu's intentions from the beginning. They all assumed that, given Li Chenxu's personality, he wanted to sentence Li's father to death.
During this period, they also found evidence of other crimes committed by Li's father in the past, none of which were less serious than the crime of kidnapping Mu Xiaoyu.
All the charges combined were enough to sentence Li's father to death.
However, Li Chenxu does not want his father to be sentenced to death, but only to life imprisonment.
The police officer was puzzled, but seeing Li Chenxu's expression, he knew he was unwilling to say more, so he could only bury his curiosity in his heart.
"We understand what you mean. We'll just follow the procedures. Mr. Li, you just need to hire a lawyer. A life sentence shouldn't be a problem..."
After repeatedly confirming with the police station, Li Chenxu left.
I thought I wouldn't be staying at the police station for very long, but I didn't expect that several hours would have passed by the time I left.
Worried that Mu Xiaoyu would be scared while waiting in the car, Li Chenxu practically ran back to his car as soon as he left the police station.
However, the scene he had envisioned did not happen. When he opened the car door, he immediately saw Mu Xiaoyu asleep against the other side of the car window.
It seemed as if she had been asleep for a long time. Mu Xiaoyu was sleeping very soundly, and she didn't even notice that Li Chenxu had come in.
"How long has Madam been asleep? Has she eaten anything?"
Nearly half a day had passed, and Mu Xiaoyu was feeling unwell and couldn't stand the hunger. He regretted talking so much nonsense with that person and wasting so much time inside.
"Your wife had some snacks before you came out, and she went to sleep after that."
The driver had been taking care of Mu Xiaoyu, but Mu Xiaoyu was now too resistant to them. So what he didn't tell Li Chenxu was that even when he handed Mu Xiaoyu things, she didn't dare to touch them.
Compared to the poised and confident Mu Xiaoyu of the past, the current Mu Xiaoyu seems to be a completely different person.
The driver couldn't help but sigh inwardly, but he didn't say it aloud. After all, what Mu Xiaoyu had gone through was indeed quite pitiful, and if he were to speak of it, it would be like kicking someone when they're down.
Besides, given how protective Li Chenxu is of Mu Xiaoyu, he would never let anyone like them get away with saying anything bad about Mu Xiaoyu. He's not stupid.
After listening, Li Chenxu nodded in satisfaction. He then let the sleeping Mu Xiaoyu lean on his shoulder.
His movements were very gentle. He thought that Mu Xiaoyu, who hadn't woken up before, wouldn't wake up now either. But to his surprise, she woke up as soon as he touched her with his hand.
"Have you taken care of things?"
"Okay, it's done. Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat, or would you like to sleep a little longer?"
It seemed that Mu Xiaoyu was a little dissatisfied because Li Chenxu had been inside for too long. Hearing his words, she pouted and said unhappily, "I just ate something. I'm not a pig, why should I eat more?"
"It's been so long, how could you have just eaten? It's my fault, I was inside for too long, but I promise, this is the last time, and it won't happen again."
He was assuring Mu Xiaoyu, trying to put her mind at ease. Anyone who posed a threat to them would be completely eliminated after this incident, and Mu Xiaoyu would never suffer such harm again.
"Stop talking big. I'm not someone who's easily fooled."
Mu Xiaoyu wasn't very happy. She had suffered too many losses, and no matter how much Li Chenxu said, it might not be effective now.
