Everyone turned and saw Shen Ruojing walking over in huge strides. "China's law has it that one will be sentenced to ten years or more of imprisonment for beating someone to death. They could even be given the death penalty. Even if we obtain the understanding of the deceased's family, there's still no escaping the ten years of imprisonment. You're calling this help?"
"Ten years?" Chu Ciyuan was a little stunned too. He looked toward Ding Miao and said, "Miaomiao, didn't you say that he would be given a lighter sentence?"
When Matriarch Chu heard this, she pointed angrily at Chu Ciyuan and scolded, "What kind of lousy idea is this? If we were to plead guilty, Cimo would really become a murderer! How can we do this when he didn't kill anyone?! If Ding Miao could leave after taking money back in high school, how can she treat you sincerely? Did she hoodwink you into becoming distant from me?"
