Chapter 354: Plea
Hearing this, the man froze slightly, raised his head with a wry smile,
"You know, my sister has a good relationship with the Shao family's Patriarch. She's just being too one-sided. Besides, my sister is staying in the capital now, and she's also in a lot of trouble..."
As he spoke, he raised his head to look at the old man, but for some reason his gaze shifted behind him and fixed on Cheng Zhiyuan. He was immediately stunned.
"Young Master Cheng?"
How did you recognize the big boss again?
Shen Pianpian turned her head and took a look. The man still had that cold expression on his face. When he heard him being called, he just nodded slightly. He seemed polite, but the fact that he didn't even bother to say a word actually showed that he didn't take the other person seriously. It was a natural attitude.
But the man seemed to not care about his attitude at all, he just widened his eyes.
"It's really Young Master Cheng! If I hadn't accidentally seen you before in the imperial capital, I really wouldn't have recognized you..."
He paused, then immediately bowed deeply to the man.
"Master Cheng! I know my sister was wrong for offending your company's artist! Even if you want her to be detained for a few days, or even a month, it's fine. She deserves it! But no matter what, my sister shouldn't be guilty of the crime of death! I beg you, Master Cheng, to be so kind as to let her go!"
These words were like a sudden bomb, shocking everyone.
What crime is not punishable by death? What is the point of letting her go?
How could Miss Du have offended Cheng Zhiyuan and made him kill her?
Even Huo Chengde seemed quite surprised, not to mention Shen Pianpian who was the person involved but was completely unaware of the situation.
However, facing her surprised gaze, the man simply said to the man,
"Miss Du broke the law, so naturally the law will determine her punishment. But this gentleman is coming to me to plead for mercy. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"
Just when everyone was surprised by the sudden incident, a woman suddenly walked out from the entourage behind the man, staring straight at Cheng Zhiyuan.
"Are you Mr. Cheng?"
The man stepped forward to support her and called out,
"mom."
After secretly restraining his mother, the man continued to walk towards Cheng Zhiyuan.
"Mr. Cheng, we're all from the same family, and we all know the rules of survival, so let's be frank! Actually, I just had breakfast and was heading to the airport. The legal teams our Du family sent to the capital have been met with setbacks one after another. Their initial demands for acquittal were lowered to large compensation for the victim, and then soon after, to a week in detention. Then, one week was slowly reduced to a month. Until now, it's clear that the people at the Capital Police Department have received orders and are determined to sentence my sister!"
"After understanding the entire process of the incident, I knew that the person could only be you, Mr. Cheng! Otherwise, the imperial capital has yet to find someone who can command the entire judicial system to obey orders and who is also irritated by my sister."
As he spoke, the man bowed deeply once more, almost to the ground.
"Mr. Cheng, I can even take my sister to kneel and kowtow in front of the victim, just begging you to let her go!"
His mother also bent down, her voice choked with sobs.
"Mr. Cheng, my daughter is ignorant. Please let her go!"
Shen Pianpian, who had been stunned the whole time, slowly turned his head at this moment. The morning light was shining, and the man's profile, from his forehead, to his eyes, nose bridge, and thin lips, was all perfect like a statue carved by a knife or a sword.
However, at this moment, he lowered his eyes indifferently, looking at the mother and child who were buried in the dust, but his expression was as indifferent as a god high in the sky, looking at the mortals crawling at his feet.
