Chapter 161: Plea of Forgiveness

Translator: Lordbluefire

Ding Miao quickly removed her jacket and used it to cover her waist area. She then hugged Chu Ciyuan’s arm.

Chu Ciyuan started. “What’s wrong?”

“M…maybe my menses are here. Let us leave first.” Ding Miao felt some pain in her abdomen area. Recently, her abdomen felt very painful, but she didn’t really care.

When she was young, her family was poor and they didn’t really have good days. In the winter, they would always use ice water to wash their clothes. Because she was a girl and loved cleanliness, she would also bathe with ice water. This led to her current condition – whenever her menses came, she would feel pain in her stomach.

She was too afraid of being poor. This was why she had used all sorts of methods in high school to make Chu Ciyuan fall in love with her. She wanted to be together with him.

In the end, Matriarch Chu found her and said that she would pay her $100,000 for her to leave Chu Ciyuan.

It was $100,000!

Back then, her parents only earned $2,000 every month, so $100,000 could be considered many years of savings for them. Hence, she didn’t say anything more and left immediately after she got the $100,000.

And after that, when she returned to the country after university, she met Chu Ciyuan by chance and they got together once more.

However, her body was still riddled with sickness. Her body was frail and her menses were irregular. Sometimes they came once every twenty-plus days, and sometimes they came once every forty-plus days. This time, it was forty days.

Hence, she didn’t treat Shen Ruojing’s words seriously.

She had naturally heard of ectopic pregnancy before, but that was an extremely rare case. How would she be so unlucky?

Shen Ruojing must be dissing her.

When Chu Ciyuan heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. “So this is the case.”

He supported Ding Miao and headed out.

When Shen Ruojing saw this, she reminded her again, “You have to head to the hospital quickly or there might be a danger to your life.”

All doctors were benevolent.

Although Ding Miao was a top-class bitch, Shen Ruojing wasn’t willing to watch her die like this. She directly gave a deadline. “One more week. If you don’t go to the hospital then, something bad might happen.”

Ding Miao turned her head and gloomily glared at Shen Ruojing. “Enough. I know my family is poor and we have no money. You guys look down on us, but Matriarch Chu, it’s really enough. Stop using such methods to humiliate me!”

Her eyes were red and she shuddered as she looked at Chu Ciyuan.

Shen Ruojing frowned. “What has this matter got to do with Matriarch Chu? I’m the one…”

Before she could finish, Matriarch Chu coldly spoke, “Jingjing, stop talking. They won’t believe it.”

She lowered her eyelids.

Chu Ciyuan was extremely angered because Ding Miao was being targeted. As expected, he clenched his fist and turned his head. “Mother, no matter if you believe it or not, I returned this time because I was concerned for Chu Cimo. However, you made me very disappointed in you and this family. You look down on her, but in reality, you are also looking down on me! Do you feel that an illegitimate son like me should find a good-for-nothing girlfriend?”

Matriarch Chu stared at him with shock and disbelief. “Do you really think of me like that?”

She always treated him sincerely, but this brat completely ignored that?!

Chu Ciyuan coldly laughed. “Enough. I’ll do as you wish and not return to this place anymore. However, the Chu Family’s inheritance is mine. Don’t even dream about giving me a single cent less!”

After speaking, he supported Ding Miao and directly headed out.

Matriarch Chu dumbfoundedly stared at the entrance as her body trembled.

After seeing her appearance, Shen Ruojing pushed Chu Cichen forward and made him stand beside Matriarch Chu. He subconsciously held Matriarch Chu’s arm.

Matriarch Chu stabilized her body and turned to look at Chu Cichen.

After her husband passed away, she, a woman, had to take care of the Chu Family, so she had long since learned how to be strong. But at this moment, when she saw her son, who had broad shoulders and was a head taller than her, for some reason, Matriarch Chu’s eyes turned red.

“…”

Chu Cichen looked at her appearance and didn’t really know what to say. He only helped Matriarch Chu to the sofa and said, “Shen Ruojing’s diagnosis wouldn’t be wrong. When something happens to her, Chu Ciyuan would know that we are correct. You…”

He paused. “You don’t have to be too sad about it.”

The more he consoled, the more Matriarch Chu cried. “It is really too difficult to raise a child. If your father was still around, he would be able to beat up Chu Ciyuan and vent my anger for me. Look at my condition now. One son is in the prison involved in a murder case, and the other is so rebellious…I was the one who failed to educate my kids. Cichen, luckily I still have you.”

Such reliance caused Chu Cichen’s body to stiffen slightly.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say. He only felt incredible that his mother who had always been at a distance from him would actually have a moment like this.

His mother needed him.

This feeling of being needed caused a small current of warmth to rise in his heart. This also made him feel an additional sense of belonging to this home.

He lowered his eyelids. “Don’t cry anymore. I’ll help you to…beat him up harshly.”

“Good. Beat him up ruthlessly!” Matriarch Chu wiped her tears. After saying this, her anger dissipated by half. When she turned and saw Shen Ruojing, the lawyer, and Lu Cheng also present, she suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed.

She coughed. “I’m muddle-headed. I shouldn’t care about that rebellious child now. Let us first talk about Cimo’s case. Cichen, what should we do now?”

Since she wanted to shift the topic, everyone naturally had no objections.

The Chu Family’s lawyer hurriedly spoke, “The circumstances are very disadvantageous to Young Master Mo. From the video alone, it looks like that person died because Young Master Mo beat him up. I think it was also because of this video that the police from the capital directly came and apprehended him.”

A look of difficulty appeared on his face. He continued with a low voice, “Actually, my thoughts are the same as what Miss Ding said earlier. Currently, the best solution is to plead guilty. Young Master Mo’s original intention wasn’t to beat Yan Zihao to death, so this can be considered a case of negligent death. Also, if we could obtain a plea of forgiveness from the victim’s family, the sentence would be much lighter.”

Since her own lawyer said this, Matriarch Chu no longer felt unable to accept this idea. However, she still found it a pity. “Cimo really didn’t plan to kill. In addition, that person from the Yan Clan probably wouldn’t be willing to write a plea of forgiveness given the way she did things…”

Madam Yan only had a single son – Yan Zihao.

Since her son had died, what was the point even if she had more money?

She had already explicitly stated to the reporters that she wanted the murderer to pay for his life!

As she spoke, the butler brought Bai Shanshan in. Bai Shanshan came in together with Chu Xiaoqi But after seeing everyone here, her eyes turned red. “Sorry, Chu Cimo did this because of me…”

Large tears fell down her face as she spoke.

Matriarch Chu had always been someone who understood facts, so she wouldn’t implicate Bai Shanshan. She immediately hugged Chu Xiaoqi. “How can it be you, stop speaking nonsense.”

Bai Shanshan bit her lips. “Why don’t I tell the police that I was the one who killed Yan Zihao?! Chu Cimo was bribed by me. Can this work?”

The lawyer didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Your statement would only needlessly implicate another person.”

Bai Shanshan cried. “As long as my words can lighten his sentence, I’m fine! Why don’t I go and beg Madam Yan for her to write a plea of forgiveness?”

After saying that, Bai Shanshan turned and headed outside.
