Chapter 1642: Epilogue (15)

Mo Xicheng lowered his head and explained calmly, “I feel that if Mo Zhi were to just die like this, we’d be letting him off too easily. If he feels remorseful about killing my father, then he should live and spend his days in jail, guilt-ridden. And I’m thinking that since Big Belly is so fond of him, they can meet in jail and develop their relationship there. I want Mo Zhi to suffer all his life. He was so good to Mo Zhi, how could he be so cruel?”

Shi Nianyao nodded.

She had already thought of these things without Mo Xicheng having to mention them.

However, she did not expect Mo Xicheng’s next question, “Are you disappointed in me?”

She was surprised.

So this was why he was feeling troubled.

He was worried about showing this dark side of himself and that she would think less of him.

She stopped smiling immediately and said with a serious expression, “Mo Xicheng, I love you for who you are, not just certain aspects. I like everything good and bad about you. Everything.”

“Besides, don’t forget my background. I’m used to seeing these sorts of fights. I’d be worried about my own taste in men if, on the contrary, you were like a saint and forgave Mo Zhi! We should take revenge as needed.”

Seeing that Shi Nianyao had said this with so much conviction, he lowered his head.

–

Li Shu was discharged from the hospital very shortly.

Not a single time before she was discharged did she go to see Mo Hai in the mortuary.

He was cremated a few days later.

Following the wake and funeral, Mo Zhi’s trial date arrived.

He was found guilty of first degree murder and given a life sentence.

Big Belly, on the other hand, was found guilty of private usury and sentenced to three years in jail.

The day the verdict was read, Mo Xicheng had gone to the court to listen.

After the verdict was out, Mo Zhi walked past Mo Xicheng as he was being escorted by the police to be taken to the prison.

Mo Zhi asked him, “Why did you get me a lawyer?”

Initially, ashen-faced, he had thought this case would be the end of him. But unexpectedly, this had been the outcome and it had greatly surprised him.

After initially thinking that the man was going to be Mo Xicheng’s lawyer, he was further taken aback when the man had fought on his behalf.

Mo Xicheng did not bother answering his questions.

Mo Zhi still had plenty of imagination. “This must have been Dad’s request before he died.”

His eyes reddened at once as he said, “I didn’t think that Dad would be so kind towards me, even right before his death. I actually killed him. It was Li Shu who should have died! It should have been her!! Not Dad! Dad died because of her, and what about her? Why is she still alive? Why should she be?!”

Mo Xicheng widened his eyes as he glared at Mo Zhi.

This caused Mo Zhi to swallow the rest of his words in fright.

Mo Xicheng cast his gaze down and said to the man, “Don’t you worry, I’ll make sure you and Yao Lili have a chance to see each other in jail.”

Before Mo Zhi could answer to this, he was escorted by the police.

Then he got into the police car and they drove towards the prison.

He was given his prison clothes to change into and had his hair shaved off. They took his belongings from him and he entered the building that he would never be able to leave for the rest of his life.

The gate shut with a loud clang behind him, cutting him off completely from the outside world.

He walked ahead fearfully, and as he did so, he suddenly caught sight of Yao Lili, who was taking a break.

At the same time, Yao Lili also spotted him.
