Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mr. Gong and Mrs. Chen’s faces were ashen, a testament to their disbelief at their unprecedented miscalculation. They had always thought of Lin Miao as untalented but easily controllable, yet she had managed to cause such a disaster before even stepping foot into their home!

In retrospect, their decision to allow the Gu family to abandon Gu Zi and marry Lin Miao into the Gong family seemed like a colossal mistake. Unfortunately, regret was futile now, as the situation had already been set in stone.

“Mr. Gong, Mrs. Chen, you can’t leave, you must help Miao Miao,” Zhang Mei

pleaded, clutching onto Mrs. Chen’s hand. She watched helplessly as her daughter was taken away in a police car, her heart shattering into pieces.

At this point, the Gong family was Lin Miao’s last hope. Surely, they wouldn’t stand by and let their daughter-in-law go to jail. After all, the Gu and Gong families were now in the same boat.

Mrs. Chen, who was usually kind and amiable, was now flushed with anger for the first time in public. She shook off Zhang Mei’s hand and said, “Your Gu family has really screwed us over this time. Lin Miao brought this upon herself, what can we do?”

Mr. Gong remained silent, his brow furrowed as he quickly led his wife away. Gong Zhan was also pulled away by Gong Xin. freēwēbnovel.com

Zhang Mei felt a wave of darkness wash over her, nearly fainting. Luckily, Gu Shan was there to steady her.

Gu Shan whispered in her ear, “Stop making a scene, haven’t we been humiliated enough? Let’s go to the police station and find Gu Zi. Maybe she can persuade Su Shen to drop the charges.”

With the situation as it was, Gu Shan had no choice but to force himself to remain calm. However, he couldn’t just stand by and watch Lin Miao go to jail. They had to salvage the situation. As long as Lin Miao didn’t end up in jail, there was still room to negotiate. Otherwise, the Gu family would never be able to lift their heads again.

Gu Shan and Zhang Mei took a taxi to the police station. As they approached the entrance, they ran into Su Shen and Gu Zi, who were about to leave. Su Shen, as the plaintiff in this case, had just arrived at the police station with Captain He. Now that he was leaving, it seemed that a verdict had already been reached in Lin Miao’s case.

Although the Gu family had forced Gu Zi to marry in place of Lin Miao, which was admittedly extreme, it hadn’t harmed her. After all, her current comfortable life was a result of marrying Su Shen in place of Lin Miao. It was unjust to let Lin Miao go to jail.

Gu Zi watched as Zhang Mei cried pitifully. To an outsider, it would seem as if Zhang Mei had suffered a great injustice.

However, Gu Zi knew that Zhang Mei was simply heartbroken for her biological daughter. She didn’t want the Gu family to lose face because of Lin Miao’s imprisonment. Therefore, she was trying to play the emotional card with Gu Zi, her adopted daughter, in hopes that Su Shen would drop the charges.

Gu Zi dared not show them any sympathy or leniency.

Having decided to find and legally deal with the thief who stole the three thousand yuan, she would not interfere with the outcome. Especially considering that Lin Miao had stolen the money with the intention of making the original owner suffer, and the consequences had fallen on her, the one who had transmigrated into this story.

Although she didn’t understand why Lin Miao hated the original owner so much that she constantly plotted against her, Gu Zi, as the victim of this theft, was determined that Lin Miao, the mastermind, must pay the price!
