Chapter 1 (1/2)

Chapter 1

February, freezing cold weather .

In the gloomily wintry dungeon, the cold was like a needle that continuously poked the bones .

Mu Yunyao leaned against the hay, her arm drenched in blood, yet she was completely unaware of it . Instead, a clear smile spread across her delicate face .

“Grandma, later on in court, you will have to think carefully about what you are going to say . One wrong word and you will accompany Zhang Caizhu to the coffin . If you speak correctly, he will die alone . I believe such a simple matter will pose no difficulty to you . ”

The voice was like a nightingale’s, yet to Li s.h.i.+ (T/N: ‘s.h.i.+’ is saying that ‘Li’ is the birth surname of the person in question, in this case the lady’s maiden name is ‘Li’), it was like the caws of an evil spirit in the night . “Mu Yunyao, you are the murderer! The magistrate will find out the truth, you will definitely not get away with this!”

“Ha! Even the Heavens can be blind, let alone Man! Otherwise, after so many years of your abuse towards me and my mother, why have you not gone to h.e.l.l?”

“You…you are a demon! A vengeful demon! The magistrate will definitely find out the truth and you will have your head chopped off and fed to the dogs!” Li s.h.i.+ dragged her broken leg to hide in the corner, as if this would widen the gap between her and Mu Yunyao .

Mu Yunyao chuckled . She slowly stood up, walked towards Li s.h.i.+ and stretched out her injured arms . They were, however, still pale and delicate .

“Grandma, people only believe their own eyes . Indeed, it was I who killed him, but who would possibly believe that I could kill such a tall and muscular man?”

Li s.h.i.+ involuntarily shuddered . She screamed and violently pushed Mu Yunyao onto the floor .

At this moment, a guard walked towards the cell . When he saw this scene, he raised his baton towards Li s.h.i.+ and glared at her with hatred, “Even in the cell, you still do not know your place! Are you asking for a beating? The magistrate has opened the case, let’s go . ”

Even in the dungeon, this old hag still does not forget to bully her own granddaughter . Serves her right to get her leg broken!

Li s.h.i.+ raised her head to look at Mu Yunyao . Her eyes met Mu Yunyao’s cold ones and could not help regretting everything . If she had known that this girl would become like this, she would have killed her much earlier on!
