Chapter 2051: Not My Mother’s Daughter

If they did not comply, Sze Junyan would be arrested again. If Li Jingyan had not done this, Sze Lingyun would not have had the chance to live a carefree life away from her terrible family.

“Your son owed some people money, and you made my daughter repay his debt. When she refused, your son ran into her with his car. Zhou Menglu, my patience is limited. Your son committed premeditated assault. Actually, this could be considered premeditated attempted murder too. He’ll be sentenced to death.”

After he watched that video, Wu Jingzhong was furious. Even though he had no plans to let this family off, he had no choice but to offer Zhou Menglu some benefits regarding her son to get her talking about the photo to uncover the truth.

Zhou Menglu’s eyes were filled with fear. “No, no, no! You didn’t arrest my son before, and you can’t arrest him now. You don’t have the right to sentence him to death. You don’t!”

“I don’t? Just ask the prison guard behind you.”

When the prison guard saw the video, he felt that Zhou Menglu must have lost her mind to have treated the governor’s daughter so poorly. He immediately nodded and replied, “This is a premeditated murder attempt—it is indeed punishable by death. I’ve seen many cases like this.”

Zhou Menglu was scared senseless. She wanted to rush over to Sze Lingyun’s side and beg for her protection, but she was blocked by two prison guards.

“Yunyun, save your brother! You know your brother wouldn’t do something like that! He didn’t want to kill you! Of course not! We have an agreement!”

“Zhou Menglu, talk to me now. You bullied my daughter for 21 years—you’ve lost the right to talk to her. What do you want to discuss? Tell me, so I can make the decisions. But as I’ve already mentioned, my patience is limited. If I find out that you’re lying to me again, you and your son will have to face the death penalty—and don’t think that death will come so soon. People like you usually get a two-year reprieve, meaning you’ll serve two years in prison before facing your death sentence. So, I’ll give you one last chance. If I find out that you’re lying to me, your son will be the first to lose his life.”

Zhou Menglu had a terrified look on her face. At this moment, she was so frightened by Wu Jingzhong that all her anger withered away.

“Now, speak! Who is this person? You have to know that I know something if I have this photo. Here’s your evidence. If you’re thinking about lying to me, remember the consequences your son will face.”

Zhou Menglu loved Sze Junyan. The moment Wu Jingzhong threatened her with his life, she conceded.

“She… Her name is Zhou Hua. She’s my sister. Sze Lingyun is her biological daughter.”

“Is Zhou Hua your biological sister?”

Zhou Menglu shook her head. “No.”

“Be clear. Don’t make me ask more questions than I have to. Explain things properly. Zhou Menglu, Sze Junyan’s life depends entirely on what you do now. You’d better not make me lose my patience.”

“Yes, yes! I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you everything!”

Zhou Menglu was utterly terrified. She cried as she explained. “Zhou Hua is not my mother’s biological daughter. She was adopted when my mother found her by the roadside. Her beauty captured my mother’s eyes. At the time, our family was especially poor. The price of a good bride was high then, so given her beauty, my mother figured that once she grew up, she could be married off for a large sum of money as dowry.”
