Zhou Manchun pursed her lips and looked at him in shock. She blinked her eyes in disbelief. "Just because you rejected your uncle's case, he set up this car accident to take revenge on you?"
What a ridiculous reason. Zhou Manchun couldn't believe her ears. Could it be that the schemes and schemes between wealthy families were really that scary?
"That proposal wasn't a small business deal. There were hundreds of millions of gray income in it. I just didn't think that my own uncle would do this to me." Jin Beisen's face tightened. His gaze was lowered, resting on the tombstone, on Lin Xingyan's photo.
Zhou Manchun was about to faint. Her beautiful brows were tightly knitted. She never thought that Shi Botao would be so vicious. If she had known that he was like this, causing the death of her best friend and almost her, she wouldn't have meddled in Jiaru Hospital. She should have let Jin Beisen strangle him to death!
Now that she thought about it, it was too late for Zhou Manchun to regret it.
"My mother only had one biological brother. My maternal grandparents passed away when I was young. All these years, my uncle made a lot of money from JS International. One time, he almost caused the company to have a cash flow problem. In the past, my father trusted him a lot and let him handle the company's finances. However, he falsified the accounts. When the tax bureau came to investigate, my father spent a lot of effort and bribed his connections to settle the matter. He thought that once the matter was over, he would be more obedient. My father promoted him and made him the general manager, but he no longer asked about the company's finances. Haha … I can only say that my uncle is really amazing. He's completely blinded by greed." Jin Beisen closed his eyes in pain. His expression was indifferent. He turned his face to the side, his beautiful brows carrying a hint of mockery.
JS International was like a big piece of fat meat. Everyone wanted a piece of it. When JS International was exposed to financial problems, the people at the tax bureau were already ready to make a move.
"So that's how it is. Then … why was the Shi family destroyed?" Zhou Manchun grabbed onto Jin Beisen's arm tightly. She was afraid that this matter had something to do with Jin Beisen. She suddenly felt a sense of fear. How much hatred and blood did this man have on him?
"I can swear in front of Xingyan that this matter has nothing to do with me. I still have the text my brother sent me. I'll show it to you." Jin Beisen's dark eyes looked at Zhou Manchun. His heart was filled with an indescribable pain. Hatred and anger were like a war horse, screaming in his heart.
Jin Beisen unlocked his phone and handed it to Zhou Manchun. Zhou Manchun's shimmering almond-shaped eyes glistened with tears. She hadn't even read the text, but her vision had already started to blur.
In the text, Shi Mingge confessed about the car accident that Shi Botao had planned and how he liked Zhou Manchun. This was something Jin Beisen didn't want Zhou Manchun to see. He was afraid that Zhou Manchun would feel guilty if she saw it. None of this had anything to do with her. Shi Mingge's death was his own fault. However, Jin Beisen understood Zhou Manchun's personality too well. This woman loved to let her imagination run wild, so he had been hiding it from her.
Zhou Manchun read through Shi Mingge's text word by word. This text was sent three years ago. It had always been stored in Jin Beisen's phone. Zhou Manchun didn't dare imagine how Jin Beisen felt every time he opened this text. It must have been terrible!
It wasn't until she finished reading the text that Zhou Manchun completely understood what had happened. It turned out that Shi Mingge's family of three committed suicide because they wanted to pay with their life. Lin Xingyan, her, and their unborn child.
"How could he be so stupid?" Zhou Manchun bit her lips, and a thin layer of mist appeared in her eyes. She lowered her head, and a drop of tears unexpectedly fell on the phone screen.
Zhou Manchun's vision was already blurry, but she still finished reading the text. Shi Mingge's last text touched her very much. Although Zhou Manchun didn't know what Jin Beisen and Shi Mingge had experienced, blood was thicker than water, and they couldn't let go of their family ties.
Shi Mingge said in the text: Take care, my good brother. See you in the next life. In the next life, we must not quarrel. In the next life, I still want to be your brother. My biggest regret in this life is not being able to protect you well.
Zhu Anhao, Shi Mingge.
This was his repentance before he left. It was full of sincerity and remorse. Zhou Manchun suddenly seemed to understand this man a little. His usual cheeky appearance was all a mask he wore. In fact, Shi Mingge wasn't stupid, he was just good at pretending.
"Actually, I'm really grateful to him. If it wasn't for him, I really don't know what would have happened to JS International." Jin Beisen's voice was also a little shaky, and he looked at Zhou Manchun with empty eyes.
"Beisen, you've changed. In the past, you used to call people by their names, but now you call them uncle and brother." Zhou Manchun reached out and gently placed her palm on the back of Jin Beisen's hand, as if she wanted to pass some warmth and strength to him.
"I've also accepted it. Actually, there was a lack of communication between uncle and me. If we could sit down and talk calmly many years ago, all this tragedy wouldn't have happened." Jin Beisen smiled faintly, and the delicate corners of his mouth curled up, but there was a touch of self-mockery in his words.
What he was thinking about was all in the future. How could Jin Beisen really have the ability to turn back time?
Everything that was supposed to happen would still happen. Just like that car accident, everything was just a series of interlocking predestined events.
"Then why did you get close to me in the first place?" Zhou Manchun's eyes were red and her knees were numb from kneeling. She was filled with excitement as she asked nervously.
"Back then, I got close to you because of something your mother said in the hospital. I deeply remembered it. Plus, losing Xing Yan made me feel a lot of pain, so …" Jin Beisen gritted his teeth and averted his eyes. He didn't dare to continue, so he temporarily stopped talking.
Zhou Manchun stared fixedly into Jin Beisen's eyes as she furrowed her brows, "Go ahead." "At that time, I simply wanted to get revenge on you.
So, after I got you, I treated you with indifference. But, after spending so much time with you, I realized what retribution is. I made a mistake that I shouldn't have made: falling in love with you. But, I don't regret it. I have no way out and I don't want to. In the past, I didn't have the courage to tell you, but today, I've finally said it. Xiao Chun, I really didn't do it on purpose, "Jin Beisen said calmly. Little did he know, his heart was already in turmoil.
