Chapter 137: I Want the Land

“What do you think your family can offer in exchange for your son’s freedom?” Chen Xin and Chen Li were both Chen Sheng’s children, but Chen Sheng was willing to give up everything for his son, while he was calculating with his daughter.

Yun Xi really felt sorry for Chen Li.

“As long as you want it, and as long as our Chen Family has it, you can name anything.” Chen Sheng looked like he was ready to face death.

“Xi Xi, let’s not be too unreasonable and unforgiving, alright?” Chen Li tugged on Yun Xi’s arm and whispered to her.

Yun Xi did not expect Chen Li to still be kind, even at a time like this. Yun Xi became more upset at her mother’s reaction. Yun Xi did not actually want to force the Chen Family into a dead end, but now she changed her mind.

The Chen Family did not have any money to offer. However, they had the land left behind by her great-grandfather’s military achievements. It could be considered the valuable thing they had.

Yun Xi thought that if Liu Wei had not appeared, Chen Li would have had a very healthy family. However, because of this person’s appearance, her own grandmother was ostracized. Even the land that was originally allocated to her own grandmother had fallen into the hands of this woman.

After that, they would have to break up the land and redistribute it to their own son. The small amount of land that Chen Li owned would shrink again.

Originally, Yun Xi only planned to get the small amount of land that Liu Wei had from the Chen family. However, looking at Chen Li’s current attitude, she even wanted to take the land under Chen Xin’s name.

“I think the Chen Family doesn’t have money to offer. We don’t lack anything that you can possibly offer. How about this – transfer the land under Liu Wei and Chen Xin’s names to my mother’s name. If you agree to this, then I will not pursue this matter and give Chen Xin his freedom.”

“Old man, you can’t. If you transfer the land under my name and our child’s name to their family, how will the two of us survive? How will our family survive?”

Hearing Yun Xi’s words, Liu Wei was the first to disagree.

Back then, she had taken a liking to a man who had a family and a child. Of course, it was not because of how handsome or reliable this man was. It was because she had taken a liking to the land behind him. Now, he actually wanted to give this land back to his daughter. What was the point of her marriage with him, then?

“Looks like your wife doesn’t agree. Then we have nothing more to say. After all, your son is the one going to jail, not me. Of course, I don’t care.” Yun Xi was gambling, and she bet that the Chen family did not understand the law. Chen Xin was not present and the only smart person in their family had left. Yun Xi did not back down at all. She only waited for Chen Sheng to retreat first.

“No, you can’t send my son to jail. I agree to transfer the land under my name to your mother, but you have to leave my son alone!”

Upon hearing that her son was going to be imprisoned, Liu Wei lost her composure and quickly voiced her objection. However, she did not know that she had lost her composure and was playing right into Yun Xi’s hands.

“Why didn’t you think that our family wouldn’t be able to live when you said that you were going to take away my mother’s land? Now that we are only taking away some of yours, and you are telling me that you won’t be able to live? How can this be reasoned with? I am already showing mercy. I would have otherwise taken all the land under grandfather’s name.”

Yun Xi deliberately emphasized the word “grandfather” very heavily.

“Okay, as long as you don’t pursue this matter and let my son go, I can make the decision to transfer these two pieces of land to your mother’s name.” After some thought, Chen Sheng made the most important decision of the day.

“That’s right. A wise man submits to circumstances.” Yun Xi stood up and loudly praised Chen Sheng’s “wise decision”.

“It just so happens that we’re at the police station today. In order to avoid a long delay, let’s settle this matter today.” Yun Xi suggested.

“Of course, there’s no problem.” Seeing that the matter was settled very smoothly, the police chief made the final arrangements.
