Yet, she completely changed. It was as if she had become silent and reticent, and her eyes were dull and lost their glow.
What surprised Hai Xiaotang even more is that when the court announced that her crime was established, and she was sentenced to death temporarily, she merely quietly protested her innocence, her emotions hardly stirred up.
When the police were about to take her away, Hai Xiaotang rushed up to stop them, worriedly asked, âQiao Ning, whatâs happened to you? What has happened, why are you acting so strange today?â
Typically, she should have been enraged by the false accusation. However, she now seemed as if her spirit had been crushed, leaving her empty and expressionless.
With tears in her eyes, Qiao Ning looked at her and said in a low voice, âXiaotang, thank you for taking care of me and helping me all this time. If I really die, please donât be sad. Xiaotang, you must be happy. I will bless you from heaven.â
Hai Xiaotang was deeply shocked, âQiao Ning, what nonsense are you talking about? Nothing will happen to you, you are innocent, we will appeal to the end, youâll be fine!â
Qiao Ning shook her head, âThatâs not necessarily true, I have no evidence to prove my innocenceâ¦..â
âEven without evidence, they canât falsely accuse you! Qiao Ning, rest assured, I will always find ways to help you! You must never lose hope, I will help you!â
Qiao Ning gratefully smiled, âThank you Xiaotang, thank youâ¦â
Then the police took her away.
Watching Qiao Ningâs desolate figure being led away, Hai Xiaotang had a flashback to her past life.
At that time, she was also so helpless and desperateâ¦
She never thought that after escaping such fate in her past life, the same ill fate would fall on Qiao Ningâs shoulders.
In her past life, Qiao Ning had already given up her life for Chai Xiyang.
And in this life, sheâs being falsely accused of murderâ¦.
Why is her destiny so rough, why is that?
Hai Xiaotang was confused. Regardless if this was fate or something else, she would not sit idly by. She would fight against God until the end!@@novelbin@@
Hai Xiaotang instantly requested a lot of help through her father-in-law Dongfang Zujie, and also invited more famous lawyers to fight the case. But things didnât improve much.
Again, law deals with evidence. Without evidence proving her innocence, thereâs no way for Qiao Ning to overturn her case.
But the evidence was hard to find.
They searched for all kinds of evidence but found nothing useful.
Zhang Yingying had fallen into the lake and died after Qiao Ning leftâ¦..
The time, the location, everything was just right. Unless someone had seen Zhang Yingying fall into the lake and can prove it was unrelated to Qiao Ning, proving Qiao Ningâs innocence would be very difficult.
To find a witness, Hai Xiaotang released a reward of 5 million. Anyone who could provide evidence would receive the 5 million but no one ever contacted them.
Even if they did make contact, it was people intentionally committing perjury for the sake of 5 million.
Anyway, in half a month, Hai Xiaotang tried everything, but there was no progressâ¦
During this time, she had been running around for Qiao Ning and had completely forgotten that she hadnât received an email from Dongfang Yu in a long time.
Hai Xiaotang remembered this and immediately checked her mailbox, but was still disappointed to find no new emails.
Dongfang Yu had mentioned in an email half a month ago, he was going on a trip to Africa for a survey, and estimated that he would be out of contact for a long time.
She didnât expect it to have been half a month since their last contactâ¦.
