The day before, when Chen Xi brought Tang Yue to the Chen family and introduced him to them, Mrs. Chen and Mr. Chen were both very pleased with him, mistakenly thinking that he was the future son-in-law of the Chen family.

Little did he know that Tang Yue had flown back from Country M specifically because Chen Xi said Jiang Li would also be coming, so he wanted to secretly meet Jiang Li.

Tang Yue stared at Mrs. Chen coldly, as if he was looking at a dead object.

"Ever since you received the call yesterday and mentioned Zhuzhu's name, I have been secretly watching you. I deliberately asked to stay at your house for Zhuzhu's sake. Otherwise, do you think I am willing to set foot in your dirty place?"

Tang Yue still called Jiang Li Zhuzhu, just like when he was a child.

He was the one who gave her this nickname. When Jiang Li turned one year old, she was clutching money in one hand and jewelry in the other. Everyone called her "Little Money-Loving Man." And he just blurted it out.

"Little Ali loves jewelry so much, why not call her Zhuzhu?"

He was only 7 years old at that time, and he was in love with little sisters, so after school every day, the first thing he did was to run to Uncle Jiang's house next door to tease little Zhuzhu.

Mrs. Chen's eyes were filled with horror. "Aren't you Xixi's boyfriend? How did you end up in league with this vixen?"

"Who is Chen Xi's boyfriend? I don't like the daughter of a wicked woman like you."

Tang Yue's words were really humiliating to Mrs. Chen.

"Mrs. Chen, when you mocked Zhuzhu for being a poor girl from the mountains, didn't you keep saying that she was a good match and had a clean background?"

"Have you forgotten that you are the daughter of a criminal? Your father embezzled 3.7 billion in bribes and ultimately committed suicide in prison, unable to endure the hardships of imprisonment."

"This is a classic case from the Law Readings. Do you want me to recite it to you word for word?"

"Ah! I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, shut up. Don't say anything!"

Mrs. Chen's face was torn off by Tang Yue, and she rushed towards Tang Yue, roaring like a madman.

Tang Yue did not hide, but deliberately took advantage of the force of her pounce and fell towards the wall where the antique vase was placed.

There was a bang.

The vase and Tang Yue fell to the ground at the same time. The sharp pieces of porcelain pierced his skin, and blood flowed down his clothes, looking particularly creepy.

"Tang Yue!"

Jiang Li couldn't help but open her eyes, but Tang Yue rushed over and covered her eyes with his hands.

"Zhuzhu, don't look. I'm fine."

Then he communicated with the police in a clear and organized manner.

"Comrade police officer, this Mrs. Chen conspired with her servants to frame and murder Miss Jiang, intending to defraud her of 8000 million yuan in compensation and to have her imprisoned. The evidence is irrefutable. Please open a case."

"According to the laws of the People's Republic of China, he should be sentenced to a fixed-term imprisonment of not less than ten years or life imprisonment."

"Mrs. Chen just openly attacked me in front of the police officer, endangering my health. She should be sentenced to a prison term of five years or more. I will go to the hospital for an assessment of the specific injuries and submit them to the police station."

"The above is my statement. If Chen's relatives are dissatisfied, they may appeal. I will defend you to the end."

The police looked at Mrs. Chen with sympathy. He really didn't know what this woman was thinking. She didn't want to be a good lady and instead had to make trouble for herself.

"Mrs. Chen, there is irrefutable evidence of your criminal behavior. We are formally arresting you."

When the cold handcuffs were put on her hands, Mrs. Chen felt the real fear.

"No, I don't want to go to jail, I don't want to!"

"A Xu, please save me, please save my mom, okay?"

Chen Xu didn't expect his mother to be so stupid.

"I told you a long time ago to apologize to Ali, but you wouldn't listen. Do you have to make things worse before you give up?"

No matter what, she is his mother, Chen Xu cannot just ignore her.

He lowered himself and knelt upright in front of Jiang Li. "Ah Li, for the sake of our friendship, can you please forgive my mother?"

He knew very well that this kneeling was forcing Jiang Li. From now on, he would never have the chance to pursue this fiery woman.

Chen Xu and Chen Xi are both good people, and Mrs. Chen is their biological mother after all, so Jiang Li doesn't want to go too far.

"I still say the same thing. Ask her to apologize to me publicly. Otherwise, I will never forgive her."

Mrs. Chen, who was handcuffed, seemed to have been drained of her energy and spirit, and instantly looked ten years older.

She no longer had the capital to be arrogant and look down on others, and she begged Jiang Li with tears in her eyes.

"Miss Jiang, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so obsessed as to frame you. Please forgive me and don't let me go to jail, okay?"

"I can compensate you, no matter how much."

Ms. Song jumped out and scolded her. "Who cares about your dirty money? Does my daughter-in-law need money? How much money does she want? Our Qin family can't afford it."

Although Jiang Li didn't want to be Qin Ming's wife, she had to say that Ms. Song's intention to protect her daughter-in-law was very touching.

"Ms. Song is right. I don't care about your compensation. But you must reveal the person behind this. Who told you to do this?"

"No one ordered me to do this. I was so crazy that I wanted to stop you, Ah Xu, from being together. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, can you forgive me? I was really wrong."

Faced with the choice between prison food and dignity, Mrs. Chen chose to abandon her dignity without hesitation and knelt in front of Jiang Li to beg for forgiveness without any shame.

Looking at Chen Xu, whose eyes were red and he was forbearing and in pain, Jiang Li finally chose to forgive.

"Comrade police officer, the necklace incident was a misunderstanding. I will not pursue Mrs. Chen's fault. Let her go."

"Mr. Chen. Goodbye!"

Jiang Li's call of "Mr. Chen" shattered Chen Xu's heart. The intense pain turned into mist in his eyes, blurring them.

"Just because Zhuzhu doesn't pursue criminal responsibility against Mrs. Chen doesn't mean my blood was shed in vain. Mrs. Chen must bear the consequences of maliciously causing serious injury to others. Officer, please enforce the law impartially."

Tang Yue is an international gold medal lawyer and a target of criticism in the legal community of Country Z. He is determined to fight to the end, who dares to show mercy?

Not far away, Chen Xi, who was hiding behind a tree, had tears in his eyes and they were red from crying.

When Tang Yue openly stood up to support Jiang Li, she knew that her illusory dream of love was completely shattered.

Now, her mother was about to go to jail. She knew that Tang Yue was ruthless and impartial, so she could only beg Jiang Li with a flattering face.

"Ali, please help me, please. I can't watch my mother go to jail. She is morally corrupt and heartless. She did something wrong and she deserves it. But she is my mother after all. I know this is shameless, but... I have no choice. I can only beg you."

"Can you please ask Professor Tang to let my mother go? He only listens to you. As long as you ask, he is willing to do anything for you."

"Ali, I really think of you as a good friend. I owe you this for the rest of my life. Please, okay? Ali..."

Chen Xi, who had always been arrogant and flamboyant since childhood, was begging for help in such a humble way for the first time in her life. Jiang Li felt her sincerity and understood her feelings.

But she really couldn't bring herself to ask another enemy for help in order to frame her own enemy.

"Feel sorry."

"You can go and ask him yourself. I'm not familiar with him!"
