The road was dimly lit and the surroundings were quiet.

Yin Jiachen supported the sobbing Ji Wanwan as they strolled in the park. Their backs intertwined, and they felt indescribably sad.

Ji Wanwan had just cried when she left the house, and her voice was very nasal. "Jiachen, I want to go see Mom tomorrow too."

Yin Jiachen refused without a second thought when he heard her words, "Don't go, Mom will be unhappy. She told Dad a long time ago that you should stop messing around and just stay home and wait for the birth."

"Can……"

"Don't worry, Mom was only sentenced, not exiled. I asked Dad, and he said that Grandpa has used his connections to try to get Mom to serve her sentence in Imperial City.

This means we can see Mom twice a month, and of course Dad and Grandpa are still fighting for more visitation rights."

Ji Wanwan sniffed, "Two times is not enough. I want to see Mom every day like before, and she promised to accompany me during the birthing. I'm scared without her. What should I do? Jiachen, I really miss Mom, I..."

Ji Wanwan started crying as she spoke. Seeing how emotional she was, Yin Jiachen didn't dare to let her go and helped her sit down on a chair.

Neither of them noticed the figure following them. After they sat down, they slipped under a tree.

The wind was blowing gently, the night was dark, and Yin Jiachen and Ji Wanwan were still talking.

"Jiachen, who is harming Mom? And do you think Mom is stupid?"

Yin Jiachen's body stiffened, his face gloomy. "Silly? No, Mom just doesn't want to implicate Aunt Lou."

The figure under the shadow of the tree heard the conversation and held his breath and acted cautiously.

When I heard the word "sentence", my heart couldn't calm down and it was beating as disorderly as a drum.

What's going on? What about being sentenced and serving a prison sentence? Didn't the fat guy get out? Then how did she get bailed out?

"That's right, Mom and Aunt Lou are close friends, so she would rather take all the blame herself than let Aunt Lou bear any of it.

But the prison sentence for human trafficking is at least five years but less than ten years. Did Dad tell me what the sentence would be?

Yin Jiachen shook his head. "Dad doesn't know either. The higher-ups are putting a lot of pressure on this matter."

After that, the couple fell silent again.

A breeze blew, and Lou Jiao, who was hiding behind a tree, shivered suddenly, and her eyes were red.

Gu Yulan, what on earth did that fat guy do behind her back? She was indeed a cunning woman, even if she was imprisoned, she couldn't stop her tricks.

No, she had to see her, right now.

Lou Xun received a call from Shu Yao saying that Lou Jiao was missing and was on the way to the hospital. As soon as he hung up the phone, Lou Jiao called again and he quickly answered the call.

"I want to see Fatty." A hard and emotionless voice came from the receiver.

Lou Xun slammed on the brakes and pulled over.

"Mom, where are you?" The worried voice broke his usual calmness and composure, and his handsome face was full of anxiety.

"I want to see Fatty." Lou Jiao repeated her words like a tape recorder.

Lou Xun's temples throbbed with pain. "Okay, I'll call and arrange it now." He immediately added, "Where are you? I'll come find you."

The only response he got was a busy tone.

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Lou Jiao couldn't stop crying. She rushed back to the Imperial City and saw every detail of her time with Gu Yulan. Her chest ached badly.

Take all the blame? Sentence? Why, why would that fat guy do that?

And how did she take the blame? They were both caught at the mall at the same time.

Lou Jiao's mind was in a mess. She couldn't tell whether she was normal or had a high fever. She just felt a severe headache.

No, my whole body hurts, even my hair seems to hurt.

She didn't dare to think that if Gu Yulan really did as Ji Wanwan said, he would face imprisonment for more than five years but less than ten years.

Five years, ten years, not five days or ten days. How can she bear it? What else should she do?

Fatty, no, you can’t go to jail. What will she do if she goes to jail?

Lou Jiao raised her hand and wiped away her tears, her heart aching so much that she no longer felt anything.

When he came to his senses again, Yin Jiachen had already helped Ji Wanwan walk away. After all, she was a pregnant woman, so he didn't dare let her stay outside for too long.

After the couple left, Lou Jiao sat down on the ground like a deflated ball, with all the color drained from her face.

The pair of beautiful eyes had lost all their former brilliance, without a single ray of light, looking horribly dead.

She gripped the phone tightly, her chest heaving with excitement. "Fatty, wait for me. I will definitely save you, I will."

Ding ding ding, Lou Xun's phone call came quickly. She wiped her tears and answered the call immediately, "How is it?"

"It's arranged. Where are you? I'll pick you up..."

Snapped.

Lou Jiao hung up the phone before Lou Xun finished speaking, then she hailed a car and went to the detention center.

The detention center was exceptionally quiet at night, except for a few officers on duty.

Lou Jiao walked in with ticking steps, looking dazed and as if her spirit had been pulled out of her body.

The staff member glanced at her, then said respectfully, "Mrs. Lou, please follow me."

Lou Jiao nodded, then followed the staff woodenly.

The entire station was empty, with no other sound except the sharp clicking of her footsteps.

Lou Jiao walked forward like a lifeless doll, feeling mixed emotions. She was wondering what to do when she saw the fat man.

Should I cry first, scold first, or question first?

While she was thinking, the staff had already brought her to the door.

She quickly adjusted her hair and grinned, trying to make herself look energetic.

But why can't she control the tears in her eyes? They keep falling more and more. How can she face the fat man?
