The cold handcuffs clamped onto her wrists, and the wind seemed to penetrate Chu Xi’s bones, making her shiver involuntarily as she alternated between tears and laughter.
"Rong Yan, Rong Yan, let Rong Yan e out and see me! And Li Shengxiao, he can’t treat me like this! My surname is Chu, I am Chu Xi!"
"He treats me this way; the Chu Family won’t let him go. I am his fiancée!"
"Let Rong Yan e out, I have secrets yet to tell. I booked a room with Li Shengxiao, you tell her, if she es to see me, I’ll tell her what happened that night."
"Li Shengxiao..."
One moment she called for Rong Yan, the next she shouted Li Shengxiao’s name, struggling fiercely.
The middle-aged woman saw her frenzied behavior, tears suddenly streaming down her face, as she cried and hugged her, "Xi, Xi, don’t scare me."
She knelt on the ground to plead, "Please, let her go. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me. She knows nothing, all the things you mentioned were done by me, even today’s incident was my doing. Let her go, arrest me."
"Please, I’m begging you." She clutched the policeman’s pant leg, sobbing bitterly, "I am the bad one, she knows nothing, don’t arrest her."
Fu Yi pulled her away, his deep voice calming her, "She is your daughter, but she never saw you as her mother, not even once in these past ten years, never even called you. She’s bee this way by choosing her own path. She is an adult, and when she makes mistakes, she must bear the consequences of an adult. You can’t help her. Helping her equals harming her!"
Chu Xi was charged with attempted murder; at least a 20-year sentence.
With Shengxiao’s nature, he might even talk to the court to ensure a harsher sentence.
Such a big matter, crying and pleading would be useless.
Chu Xi is still young, her life is long, and 20 years won’t end her. As long as she reflects well inside and avoids messing up afterward, she can still live out her life later.
If she doesn’t go in now to think clearly but continues this path of ruin, then she might face not the police but Shengxiao personally settling scores with her, and that would truly be the end!
The middle-aged woman seemed subdued by his words, standing dumbfounded and overwhelmed.
At this moment, the struggling Chu Xi was about to be pushed out by the police, and she no longer feigned madness, her eyes suddenly bursting with intense hatred, directly toward Fu Yi.
But it wasn’t aimed at Fu Yi; instead, it was at the helpless and worried middle-aged woman beside him.
With soul-wrenching anger, she shrieked, "Why did you give birth to me! It’s all because you’re useless, pretty but brainless, getting deceived by a man to conceive before marriage. And then, self-righteously, you brought me into this world. You couldn’t give me a good life, so why did you give birth to me! Others are born with wealth and looks, can easily live their entire lives. And me, born from your womb, what did you give me! My fate today is all your fault! You ruined me!"
"You still don’t understand where you went wrong," Fu Yi said coldly, "Attempted murder is a grave crime. Once inside, reflect carefully on what mistake you truly made."
Chu Xi continued to shout, "You shouldn’t have given birth to me. If you hadn’t, perhaps I would have been born into the Chu Family and bee the real Chu Xi. It’s all because of you, all your fault!"
The middle-aged woman’s body trembled slightly, finally covering her mouth and crying aloud. Though she cried, she no longer stopped the police from taking her, seemingly conceding to Fu Yi’s judgment of Chu Xi.
Despite her shouting, Chu Xi was still pushed and taken away by the police.
