Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1477 The Ren Family

As soon as the old lady expressed her stance, the old man next to her also immediately did the same. His tone was apologetic and tired, and he even personally said that he could compensate Zhen Yu. His tone was very sincere; there was no underlying intent to bully others. It was clear that his identity wasn’t an ordinary one, and he wasn’t someone who would easily lower his head to others.

As for the young man on the side, he was almost 30 years old. His eyes were sincere and clear, and he had even specially brought a basket of fruits, saying that everything was his sister’s fault. No matter what compensation they wanted, his side would accept it.

When Yang Zhi had seen the blood all over Zhen Yu, not only did he hate Yang Lan, he also hated the woman who stabbed Zhen Yu. He had made up his mind that no matter how rich the other party was, he would bring the crazy woman who stabbed Zhen Yu to justice. The only disappointing thing was that she was indeed mentally ill and probably wouldn’t be able to serve a sentence.

Yang Zhi didn’t want to talk to the parents of the woman who had harmed his girlfriend, so his face darkened slightly. “I’m sorry, I still have something on and have to send my friend downstairs. If there’s nothing else, I advise you to go back. I’ll say the same thing: There’s no way I’ll let off the person who stabbed my girlfriend for no reason! As for my girlfriend, she’s resting right now, and I hope you don’t disturb her. You’re not welcome!”

Yang Zhi’s tone was too cold and hard, without the slightest bit of give. The faces of the Ren family patriarch and madam also changed drastically. The old madam cried even more pitifully and tugged at the corner of Yang Zhi’s clothes. “Young man, I beg you to let my daughter go. My daughter isn’t rational. She can’t be agitated. She…”

Before the old lady could finish speaking, Yang Zhi pulled her hand away and said coldly, “Can your daughter be allowed to kill someone just because she doesn’t know better?”

The Ren family choked at Yang Zhi’s words. The two elders’ faces were ashen, as if they had aged more than a decade, and the young man on the side hurriedly supported the old madam. Chi Shuyan saw how the other party didn’t feel any resentment toward Yang Zhi and kept silent. The two elders of the Ren family looked like upright people. It could only be said that they were pitiful parents. However, they had to pay the price for their mistakes. Besides, Zhen Yu was Chi Shuyan’s friend, so she naturally stood on her side.

Yang Zhi couldn’t be bothered with the Ren family, and immediately said to Chi Shuyan, “Miss Chi, I’ll send you downstairs first!”

Chi Shuyan nodded and entered the elevator with Yang Zhi, putting some distance between them and the Ren family.

Chi Shuyan suddenly said, “Are they the parents of the crazy woman who stabbed Zhen Yu?”

Yang Zhi sighed and nodded. “They came a few times before, and also specially sent someone to examine Xiao Yu before. The Ren family wants to compensate us and they hope that we will let their daughter off.”

Actually, Yang Zhi had a good impression of this family. After this incident happened, he had specially gotten someone to investigate the background of the person who had injured Zhen Yu, and found out that the crazy woman was the daughter of the Ren family.

Speaking of which, the Ren family had been considered new money in the capital in the early years, but the Ren family patriarch could be considered a renowned figure. He built his family from scratch when he was young. After managing the Ren family well for so many years, the family just barely squeezed into the capital’s wealthy circle. Nevertheless, the Ren family patriarch had a solid character. After he became rich, he didn’t abandon his wife, and his reputation was good.

Moreover, the Ren family was indeed very rich. There were many jewelry chains and department stores under their name. Although their reputation was built on new money, they were really rich. They weren’t inferior to some big families, and just lacked some foundation.

Not only that, the Ren family also had a good reputation in the capital. The first time Yang Zhi saw them, he thought that they would use their influence to suppress him. At that time, he didn’t care how powerful their background was; he definitely wouldn’t let go of what happened to Zhen Yu so easily. At most, he would take it head-on.

After coming into contact with them a few times, he realized that the Ren family had no intention of oppressing him. Instead, they apologized to him and Zhen Yu a few times. Their attitude was very good and they could be considered reasonable people.

Speaking of which, the Ren family’s daughter was also unlucky. In her early years, the couple only had one daughter. After that, they didn’t have any more children, and adopted a son, who was the young man just now.

It was just that later on, this only daughter of the Ren family took a fancy to a poor boy and was determined to marry him. The Ren family patriarch had started from scratch back then, so the family didn’t care too much about the other party’s identity. The couple only had this one daughter, and they just wanted her to find someone who would be genuinely good to her.

Back then, the man’s performance was pretty good, and he later agreed to marry into the family. Unfortunately, people’s hearts could change with time. That man’s ambition was too big, but he just so happened to be incompetent. He was unwilling to let that adopted son inherit the Ren family’s business, and wanted to monopolize it for himself.

It would have been fine if the young lady of the Ren family had been willing to support that man, but it just so happened that she had a very good relationship with her adopted younger brother. Miss Ren didn’t have any thoughts about the Ren family letting her younger brother inherit the company. Besides, she was the only daughter of Father and Mother Ren. Even if her younger brother inherited the company, would they stop treating her well?

In addition, her brother had the capability to manage the company, so Miss Ren really didn’t fuss over who would inherit it. Moreover, according to Miss Ren, her brother had been adopted when her family had been poor. The two of them had a better relationship than biological siblings, and there was no need to bicker over who had more.

Miss Ren was so open-minded, but her husband wasn’t the same. When he was eyeing the company in the beginning, he treated Miss Ren well. He didn’t dare cheat on her openly. Later, when he was suppressed by her adopted brother in the company, Miss Ren stood on her brother’s side. However, she put in a good word for that man. Later, when he obtained a little bit of power, he immediately didn’t think much of Miss Ren anymore.

Not only did he often use violence, he also brought women home and openly cheated on Miss Ren. After so many years, coupled with her own weak character, how could she not go crazy?

Seeing that Zhen Yu’s friend, Chi Shuyan, was staring at him, Yang Zhi realized that he knew too much about the Ren family. He explained, “Some of it was what I found out through an investigation, but most of it was revealed to me by the adopted son of the Ren family. He hopes that I will let his sister off, given how pitiful she is!”
