Fu Jun was a little surprised. He walked around in circles. Although Xiaomei was asking for trouble, it was he who cheated on her first, which led to this consequence.

He didn't know what Xiaomei's mother meant by "the outcome will be clear soon", and he didn't know what she meant by "a life for a life".

Is she trying to kill me? To avenge her daughter.

Fu Jun couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this. He felt guilty and a little uneasy at the moment.

But he calmed down and thought carefully. That's not right! My hands aren't stained with blood, so why should I be afraid? I didn't kill them, so they can do whatever they want! I'm not afraid.

"Have you found a way to prove my innocence?"

Fu Jun looked smug and nonchalant as he asked Xiaomei's mother tentatively.

Xiaomei's mother glared at Fu Jun angrily, then burst into a terrifying and sinister laugh. She gritted her teeth and said, "Haha... you're feeling guilty now, right? You're still innocent. Do you have the guts to swear in front of my daughter? Swear that you have nothing to do with my daughter's death?"

"Why not? It wasn't me who did it in the first place."

"Okay! Then come here and swear that you have nothing to do with my daughter's death. If you lie, you will be struck by lightning, die a miserable death, and have no descendants."

Xiaomei's mother was a little excited. She stood up straight, gesticulating and pointing at Fu Jun's nose, asking him to come over and swear.

Fu Jun doesn't care about life or death, but "no descendants" is the source of his reputation.

The biggest reason why he was so heartless towards Xiaomei was because of the baby in Zhang Xiaoqin's belly, which was his hope. He hated it most when people said the words "no offspring" in front of him, as if it was a famous saying to humiliate him.

He had originally intended to swear an oath to clear his name, to have peace of mind, and to find peace of mind. Unexpectedly, Xiaomei's mother said something so taboo that he flew into a rage.

"Who said you're extinct? I think your family is extinct. Who do you think you are? You asked me to swear, and I swear. Why? It's a joke. You came to my territory to show off your power, but you didn't even take a piss to see how much you weigh. If it weren't for Xiaomei, I would have kicked you out long ago."

"You—God! Why don't you take this damned guy away?"

…

The two of them were talking back and forth, and no one stepped forward to stop them.

Mother Fu had a sad face and did nothing but sigh and shake her head.

Wu Ju stayed by Fu's mother's side to comfort her. She couldn't bring herself to say anything in such a situation. Besides, it seemed completely unreasonable. She knew Fu Jun and his men were going too far. If she continued to help Fu Jun against her conscience, she would be laughed at.

Xiaomei really couldn't argue with Fu Jun, and even with her daughter-in-law's help, they were clearly at a disadvantage.

She was so exhausted she was out of breath, her face pale with anger. "Forget it, I don't want to waste my breath with you. Wait until my son calls the police, and then we'll see if you can still speak eloquently and turn black into white."

"What? You went to find the police?" Fu Jun's face changed in shock when he heard it.

Even though he hadn't committed the murder himself, he still felt somewhat responsible. He wondered if the police would come and convict him of any crime and send him to jail.

"What's wrong? Are you scared? Are you feeling guilty?" Xiaomei's mother felt much better when she saw Fu Jun was absent-minded and fidgeting. A smug expression appeared on her face.

Fu Jun frowned and paced back and forth in the yard. At this moment, he was like an ant on a hot pan, running around in circles in a panic.

What should I do? What should I do? Am I guilty or not? What if, of all the 36 strategies, running away is the best? Should I just go out and hide? No, what about Xiaoqin? Her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and she can't live without me. Besides, you can hide for a while, but not forever.

Fu Jun asked himself questions and answered them in his heart, feeling conflicted and scared.

Wu Ju, who was sitting under the eaves with Fu's mother, saw Fu Jun's worry and racked her brains to find a solution for Fu Jun.

Fu Jun is her future son-in-law and the father of the child in Zhang Xiaoqin's belly. She can't let anything happen to him no matter what.

Fu Jun sighed anxiously and sat on the stone bench in the yard, looking bitter and resentful.

Wu Ju finally came up with a plan. She picked up the water cup next to Fu's mother, walked up to Fu Jun, and took a special look at Xiaomei's family.

Xiaomei's family did not move and stayed around the coffin, guarding Xiaomei's body tightly and not giving anyone the chance to get close.

Their hatred had already spread to others. When Wu Ju's eyes met theirs, they deliberately glared at Wu Ju in an unfriendly manner.
