“Nonsense, why would he be sentenced to death? He didn’t kill anybody.”

“But the evidence lines up perfectly,” Huo Mian said dispiritedly.

Su Yu walked over, placed his hands on Huo Mian’s shoulders, and turned her to face him. “Huo Mian, stay strong. You have to be strong at a time like this. You will get through it.”

“But I’m so exhausted, I’m afraid I…”

“You still have me…” Su Yu gently interrupted, his eyes gleaming with tenderness.

“Don’t be scared. You can do it. Qin Chu is still waiting for you to clear his name. There’s still seven days before his second trial, we have lots of time to find new leads. We will find a loophole in Huo Siqian’s plan.”

“But, Huo Siqian is not someone that would execute a flawed plan,” Huo Mian answered quietly. For the first time, she didn’t sound confident. She knew Huo Siqian too well – If he wanted to do something, he would ensure the perfect execution. He would never carelessly leave any bread crumbs that would lead others towards him.

Perhaps if it were someone else who framed Qin Chu, they might mess up. But when the mastermind was Huo Siqian, a loophole was next to impossible to find.

“You’re making him sound like some kind of god. Regardless of how diligent he is, he’s only human. After all, even if Qin Chu were to be sentenced to death, we still have other options.”

“What options??” Huo Mian looked up immediately and asked. Her eyes were still full of tears.

“I can ask my grandfather for help and put Qin Chu on medical parole,” Su Yu clenched his jaw and said after a while.
