The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 582: Chapter 582: Give up on him, forget him_1

His face bore no expression, and it was unclear why he was here.

Hai Xiaotang was somewhat puzzled, but she didn’t think too much about it.

The trial commenced soon, and Qiao Ning was brought in by the police.

She kept her head bowed, not looking at anyone, but when she walked past Chai Xiyang, she suddenly stopped and slowly looked up at him.

Meeting his deep black eyes, Qiao Ning hesitated slightly, but she quickly regained her composure, turned her gaze away, and continued walking as if she didn’t recognize him.

Chai Xiyang noticed the change in the depths of her eyes.

And it was a significant change…

The old Qiao Ning, every time she saw him, her eyes would involuntarily reveal longing and admiration. @@novelbin@@

But now, there was none. Her gaze was calm, light. She had given him up and forgotten about him, just as he wished.

This was what Chai Xiyang had always expected.

But for some reason, he didn’t feel relieved…

This trial still brought much heartache.

The judge upheld the original sentence. Qiao Ning was to be executed, the sentence deferred for six months.

The team of lawyers that Hai Xiaotang hired had given everything they could, but the Zhang family also had considerable influence and had hired an equally formidable team of lawyers.

After a fierce battle between the two sides, Qiao Ning’s side lost.

Because they had no evidence, the other side did, and the other side was the victim, so the judgement favored them.

When the judge announced the upholding of the original sentence, the courtroom instantly descended into chaos.

Among the Zhang family, some cried, some laughed, and various others applauded…

On Qiao Ning’s side, everyone remained silent.

Only Kong Minjuan was agitated, “My daughter is innocent, she didn’t harm anyone, she is innocent! I disagree, I want to appeal…”

Qiao Ning heard her voice, her eyes flickered a few times, but she didn’t turn back.

But just as the police were about to take her away, Kong Minjuan suddenly rushed forward, her emotions escalating!

“You can’t take my daughter away, she’s innocent, she didn’t kill anyone! If you have to take anyone away, take me, don’t touch my daughter…”

The police tried to restrain her, but it was of no use, she was too agitated, struggling fiercely.

Qiao Ning watched her determined defense, tears welled up in her eyes.

Her feelings were very complicated, including resentment…

“Mother, enough!” Qiao Ning cried out, “What’s the use of you caring about me now?! My current predicament, isn’t it all your doing?”

Kong Minjuan was stunned, “Qiao Ning, what are you talking about, how could this be my doing?!”

Qiao Ning coldly said in despair: “If it weren’t for you planning to sell me off for your own gain, would I be here today? The troubles with Su Zigao and the Zhang Yingying, weren’t they all caused by you? So now, you don’t need to put on this act. You never treated me as your daughter before, don’t treat me as one now either. In this life, our mother-daughter bond has come to an end, in the next life, I hope you’re no longer my mother!”

After saying these harsh words, Qiao Ning swiftly left, leaving Kong Minjuan standing stunned in place.

Qiao Ning was led away.

Hai Xiaotang chased after her, watching her be put in the police car, Hai Xiaotang rushed over crying and yelled: “Qiao Ning, I’m sorry, I couldn’t help you, I’m sorry…”

Qiao Ning turned back and gave a faint smile: “No, Xiaotang, you’ve already helped me a lot, thank you.
