Even though Im guilty, the baby in my stomach isnt. You have no right to imprison me!

Lai Meiling, I dont think you understand how the law works. We have no rule against pregnant women not being sentenced in our country. Even if youre pregnant, youll still receive a sentence. At most, the workload youll need to take on during your sentence will be lightened a little, but youll still have to make it up after you give birth.

If youve committed a capital crime, the court can give you a suspended death sentence because you are pregnant. Do you know what a suspended death sentence is? It just delays things. After you give birth to the child in your belly, youll be executed immediately. Forget using pregnancy as an excuse. It wont change anything.

Lai Meiling shook her head, her face full of disbelief.

So, tell me. Why did you try to kill my daughter?

Lai Meiling shook her head in fear and helplessness. She did not know whether she should tell the truth or not.

If she told the truth, she would definitely not be let off the hook. the governor would definitely kill her.

However, if she did not tell the truth, she would be considered a major criminal, one who had tried to kill the governors daughter. The governor would definitely not let her off the hook either in that case.

What should she do?

Tell us!

Wu Jingzhongs words scared Lai Meiling so much that she s.h.i.+vered. She instinctively said, I-I heard that my father-in-law was going to take a wife, a female university student. How can a proper female university student in this society marry an old man before even graduating from university? And my father-in-law is so hideous! His stomach is more than twice as big as his chest!

Li Qiongan was speechless. He cursed in his heart, but he could not say anything because he already was in prison.

This daughter-in-law who had always praised him to the skies was now calling him an ugly old man. She even said that he was hideous and had a stomach more than twice as big as his chest!

Hehe!

Lai Meiling could not care too much at this moment in time. She knew that she and the Li family were done for. She did not care anymore! I thought that woman was just after my father-in-laws money. It wasnt easy for me to bear my husbands child. My son should be the future heir of the Li family! Its said that an emperor always loves his eldest son, while the people love his youngest son. Sze Lingyun is so beautiful, but shes so greedy that she would rather marry a disgusting man like my father-in-law than marry a good young man. Im afraid that my son wont be carried to term, and Im even more afraid that she will give birth to a son that my father-in-law is more satisfied with. Thats why Thats why I wanted to kill s.h.i.+ Lingyun. That way, she wouldnt be able to compete with my son for family property.

Lai Meiling looked at Wu Jingzhong and begged for mercy. Governor, I really know what I did wrong now. Please let me go. If I knew that Sze Lingyun was your biological daughter and that the governors daughter was going to marry my father-in-law, I wouldve befriended her so quickly. Please do me a favor! On account that your daughter is still alive, please spare me, a woman who is about to become a mother!

Shut up! Wu Jingzhong looked coldly at Lai Meiling. Its still so early in the morning. Do you think we have a lot of time to listen to your nonsense? Lai Meiling, dont be so shameless. Youre already in prison, and youre even in Sea Districts prison. Controlling you and making you beg for death is nothing more than a matter of moving my fingers to me.

I didnt get to where I am today by simply saying things or making up stories. What I want to hear is the truth! If you dare to keep anything from me, Ill make you regret ever being born into this world!
