Jiang Chujing was soon imprisoned after Jiang Mengyao was arrested. During the short trial, Jiang Mengyao confessed everything quickly.
Jiang Chujing, on the other hand, had been denying all the charges with lies even when faced with a lie detector. Her high mental diathesis surprised everyone.
She no longer felt guilty of any evil deeds of hers since she had done too much wrong. She felt numb to everything, lying to others in an extremely calm tone as if she was telling the truth.
Out of everyone's expectation, Chen Bo, who had invented the DH23 poison, turned out to be the breakthrough in the case. This famous professor at the Affiliated University of the First Hospital in J City would inevitably be brought down from the pedestal.
Jiang Mengyao was not surprisingly sentenced to death with the progress of the case while Jiang Chujing's trial continued to be postponed. Everyone was waiting for Li Han's decision until the day the case was closed.
He told the person in charge calmly that everything would be carried out following the normal procedure.
Jiang Chujing was sentenced to death. Feeling sorry for Jiang Chujing's parents, Li Han couldn't watch her die. However, that didn't mean he would let her go. Jiang Chujing didn't regret what she had done at all and thus didn't deserve forgiveness.
The verdict was changed into life imprisonment. Li Han provided her with a single room in prison and the same medical treatment from another team of doctors, excluding George.
However, all of this meant nothing to Jiang Chujing since she just moved from one cage to another. And this time, Li Han wouldn't be there for her anymore.
She kept applying for Li Han's visit but never received any answer.
He wouldn't come.
Ever since she realized this, her health started to degenerate at a terrifyingly fast speed. At first, she wished that Li Han would come to see her after knowing her condition.
However, no one ever visited her. She had been forgotten by everyone, left alone in such a narrow and damp room. Every minute of this miserable life made her want to kill herself.
And she actually killed herself on a night after six months, out of everyone's expectation.
No one knew what she was thinking at her last moment and how she managed to hide a knife in her sleeve while eating.
This woman, who had brought countless troubles and contradictions, finally ended her life in a tragic way by slashing her wrist.
She was right. Li Han was the source of every feeling she had in her life. There was no point in living without him.
She had been captured by this twisted love for her entire life until the last second.
Li Han was smoking on the balcony at home when he heard her death. His courtyard was covered in lush green vegetation at the end of summer. This was a season of vitality but all he felt was depression.
Jiang Chujing was dead. Li Han wasn't sure what feeling he had when he heard this. Maybe he didn't feel anything at all since he had foreseen this end coming.
When he recalled their past, he realized he had never really known her. Jiang Chujing had been admiring him and even begging him for his love, which gave people a false impression that Li Han was in the dominant position in this relationship. However, the truth was Li Han had always been the passive one who struggled to run away from Jiang Chujing's pestering.
The funeral was simple. Either the ugliness and the hatred in this relationship or those seemingly happy moments would just disappear like bubbles.
The dead could not be brought back to life. This exhausting farce finally came to the end.
