Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 1139

Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Severing the Mother-Daughter Relationship

After the police left, Zhang Shutong couldn’t wait to ask.

"Mom, what do you mean by this?"

Bai Hui said coldly, "Is it hard to understand? Do you want me to tell others that you refuse to admit guilt?"

Zhang Shutong retorted, "What crime could I have? Isn’t Chu Yin still alive? Besides, you are my mom, aren’t you supposed to help me get off the hook?"

Bai Hui looked at her, nodding while suppressing her anger.

"Indeed, I should help you, which is why I’m here, isn’t it?"

For the first time, Zhang Shutong felt her mother’s words were somewhat sarcastic.

"Mom, what do you plan to do?"

Bai Hui glanced at the lawyer.

The lawyer took out a mental health assessment report and an application for a mental institution from the bag.

"Miss, since you were in an episode when you harmed Chu Yin, President Bai, as your mother, is willing to assist the police by persuading you to plead guilty, and then voluntarily send you to a mental institution for treatment."

Zhang Shutong’s expression froze for a moment.

"Nonsense! I’m not sick! Why should I be locked up in a mental institution?"

"Miss, people with mental illness never think they’re sick," the lawyer said.

So, no matter what, Zhang Shutong couldn’t escape being labeled a mental patient.

Zhang Shutong wasn’t foolish, she chuckled coldly.

"Mom, you’re not here to help me; you’re here to abandon me."

"If I were to abandon you, I wouldn’t have come at all," Bai Hui explained.

"No, you had to come, or else what if I reveal what you’ve done?" Zhang Shutong resignedly said.

"Zhang Shutong! Are you insane? Stop talking nonsense!"

"I just placed Chu Yin in a pit and poured a little water, intending to use the rain on the following days to slowly torture her. How could she nearly drown on a sunny day?"

When Zhang Shutong heard that Chu Yin was rescued, she was shocked.

This was impossible.

Unless Bai Hui had done something afterwards.

"Shut up," Bai Hui said viciously, "Don’t forget, I’m your mother. What good would it do you if something happens to me? Do you really expect the Zhang Family to save you?"

Hearing this, Zhang Shutong pursed her lips.

Indeed, the Zhang Family would never save her.

She could only rely on Bai Hui.

Compared to prison, going to a mental institution was also an option.

Realizing Zhang Shutong was relenting, Bai Hui continued, "I’ll arrange for the mental institution. You can live like you’re on vacation there, and when everyone forgets about this, I’ll bring you back. After all, by domestic law, mental patients can’t be sentenced."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shutong realized there was no better option.

She nodded and said, "Are you sure you can get me out of the mental institution?"

"Of course, why would I lie to you? You’re my daughter, and no matter what you do, I’ll help you."

"Alright, I agree with you."

In the end, Zhang Shutong chose to compromise.

Bai Hui nodded, stood up, and said, "Tell the police everything they need to know. I’ll arrange the rest."

"Mm."

After the conversation, Bai Hui left with the lawyer.

Once outside the room, Bai Hui said to the lawyer, "Make sure people are watching the mental institution closely so she can’t get out. My daughter might really go insane, but she can never become my weakness."

The lawyer was taken aback by Bai Hui’s ruthlessness but had no choice but to comply.

"President Bai, rest assured. The mental institution I found for her is very strict; not even a mouse can get out."

"Mm."

Bai Hui turned to leave.

The lawyer stayed behind to accompany Zhang Shutong in pleading guilty and also signed the confession.

Everything was progressing according to Bai Hui’s plan until an unexpected obstacle appeared.
