Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Liu Sanniang did not know whether to laugh or cry, but she really did not have any strength to do anything at this moment.

It was like she had just suffered a serious illness.

After drinking the medicine, she felt a little better. The servant girl had already gone out and closed the door.

Shortly after the servant girl left, Liu Sanniang heard a faint sound again. She felt the bed sink and was shocked.

She tried her best to open her eyes to see who it was.

However, she couldn’t open her eyes. Her eyelids felt like they weighed thousands of tons.

Chu Yan sat by the bed and looked at Liu Sanniang quietly. His gaze was extremely deep, like a bottomless well, filled with mystery and danger.

There seemed to be something about Liu Sanniang that kept attracting him to her.

Looking at the sick person lying on the bed, Chu Yan felt that he would turn into a beast and swallow her any instant.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Sanniang’s long eyelashes fluttering. He chuckled.

What a timid and vigilant little thing. She was really sensitive to danger.

Chu Yan gently bent down and chuckled. “Don’t be afraid, it’s me.”

At this moment, Liu Sanniang wanted to sleep but was afraid. This, this voice, it was that blacksmith.

What did he want?

If someone saw them now, she wouldn’t be able to explain herself.

Liu Sanniang had all kinds of thoughts about her husband. He was humble and gentle, and even when he was angry, he was not rude. However, Chu Yan was not the one she fantasized about.

She felt that Chu Yan was too scary and did not want to know him.

The more she thought about it, the more clear-headed she became. However, she could not open her eyes and did not even have the strength to raise her hand.

Anxious, she wanted to cry.

What was this blacksmith trying to do?

Chu Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Sanniang’s stiffened body. He smiled and decided to let the lamb rest.

He stood up and left.

As soon as the dangerous aura dissipated, Liu Sanniang relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. She was too tired and needed to rest.

Wei Shilai had already done his best to investigate the arson case. The case that he originally had no clue about became simple because of Liu Sanniang’s psychic ability.

Lin Zheng quickly dug out the abortion medicine from Liu Cheng’s family courtyard and handed it to the doctor for examination.

At first, the He Ji Tavern in Qingshui County was very tight-lipped.

However, when the officer said that this was related to a murder case, the boss immediately told the truth.

Liu Cheng had indeed gone to buy spirits earlier.

They also found the temple. There was some oil at the back, but they did not find the clothes Liu Cheng threw away.

However, when they asked around the farmers, they found that the clothes had been taken home by someone.

The officer said coldly, “Who took it back? It’s related to a murder case. You can’t keep it!”

The woman who was asked immediately replied. “Hey, it was Lao Laisan who took it. He is a gambler and doesn’t have anything to wear. If you want to find him, you have to go to the casino.”

In just a day, they had gathered all the evidence.

After Liu Sanniang slept for a day, she was full of energy. The following day, the case was brought to court.

In the court, Liu Sanniang saw Mr. Liu, Madam Wei, and her eldest and second brothers. They looked a little disheveled because they had not eaten or slept well for the past two days.

They did not know that the arsonist had been found, so as soon as they arrived at the hall, they knelt and shouted. “Sir, I’m innocent.”

To Mr. Liu, the burning of the mortuary was undoubtedly a disaster, but he didn’t know why he was implicated.

Even the coroner was slandered and was furious.

Seeing that such a huge blame was about to be put on them, Mr. Liu and his family felt aggrieved.

Madam Wei had always been a tough woman and rarely showed weakness. Now, she was very regretful. If she didn’t go that night, she would not have fallen into the trap which Liu Cheng set up. Not only did she suffer two slaps for nothing, but she also made her family suffer with her.

Madam Wei did not expect Liu Cheng to be so vicious as to use two lives as a trap. After all, no one would’ve believed it.

She felt uneasy the moment she touched the skinny body of the retarded wife. She had never seen a pregnant woman so thin. She asked Liu Cheng to boil eggs and water, but he acted like he didn’t care. She was too concerned about whether the pregnant woman could give birth to the child properly at that time, so she didn’t notice that something fishy was going on.

“Calm down. I’ve already investigated this case thoroughly. I’ll definitely seek justice for you and all the deceased.”

Wei Shilai comforted them. He also hated Liu Cheng to the core for burning down the mortuary. Some of the corpses inside had not even been identified. Now there was no way to seek justice for those corpses.

At the thought of this, Wei Shilai was furious. He slammed the table and shouted. “Liu Cheng, Zhang Guizhi, Liu Laogen, do you plead guilty?”

“Your Lordship, please spare me…”

Liu Cheng’s father and mother were crying and trembling.

Liu Cheng, on the other hand, lowered his head and looked around for Liu Shun.

He panicked as well. Liu Shun did not tell him that it would turn out like this.

Liu Shun had said that as long as he burned down the mortuary, this matter would be settled. But now…

Liu Cheng was terrified. He would be beheaded for such a big crime.

However, he did not see Liu Shun.

“Liu Cheng, you murdered your wife and child and framed Madam Wei. When the matter was exposed, you burned the mortuary to destroy the evidence and falsely accused the coroner. Do you plead guilty?”

Wei Shilai’s voice was clear and loud like a bell.

Liu Cheng slouched, as if a thousand kilograms of weight was pressing down on him. He turned into a pile of mud and stuttered. “I plead guilty. Please show mercy. Please spare my life. I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t want to do it.”

Wei Shilai looked at Liu Cheng’s mother and said, “Zhang Guizhi, as a mother-in-law, you are heartless. You forced your daughter-in-law to take abortion medicine and harmed her and your grandchild. Do you plead guilty?”

Liu Cheng’s mother had already broken down. She kowtowed and cried, begging for mercy. “I plead guilty. Please show mercy.”

Wei Shilai’s expression did not change. He looked at Liu Cheng’s father. “Liu Laogen, you didn’t report what you knew and didn’t repent. You even participated in the murder. Do you plead guilty?”

Liu Cheng’s father said with a trembling voice, “Sir, I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything. I’m not guilty. Please re-investigate.”

After Liu Cheng’s father finished speaking, he pushed Liu Cheng’s mother away. “Sir, it’s all because of this evil woman. She couldn’t tolerate that fool. It’s all her fault. My son and I are innocent.”
