Seeing Liang Xiaoru's erratic behavior, everyone actually started to feel sorry for her again.
As long as it doesn't affect their own vital interests, isn't it easy for people to pretend to be magnanimous and saintly?
Yi watched coldly as Liang Xiaoru pretended to be crazy.
A woman like her wouldn't go mad so easily. I almost died in the fire and struggled for three years in the savage village, yet I didn't go insane as easily as she did.
Ultimately, it's just a way to gain sympathy from others so they can treat you leniently.
But she wouldn't let this woman have her way.
"Officer, look at her condition. Why don't you go easy on her?"
Yi Yi pretended to sympathize with Liang Xiaoru and pleaded with the police.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at her with suspicion. Liang Xiaoru was especially shocked! She had no idea what this woman was up to!
Throughout the entire room, only Xiao Jinyan narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Yi Yi as if he could see right through her.
Yi Yi felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and turned her face away.
One of the police officers replied, "Miss, she set you on fire three years ago and now she wants to kill you. You are so kind-hearted to plead for her. However, we don't have the final say on how she should be sentenced; that's up to the judge."
"I know, I just want to beg you to treat her a little kinder. Yes, she has done many heinous things—murder, arson, colluding with the underworld—these are all commonplace for her. I remember back in Philadelphia, at the Mu family's residence, she and I were hired as caregivers for the eldest daughter of the Mu family. She even... she even poisoned the eldest daughter's tea, almost killing her. If it weren't for the timely rescue, the eldest daughter would have... she would have..."
At this point, Yi Yi deliberately wiped away her tears, as if she was about to cry.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
The Mu family in Philadelphia.
Is it the Mu family?!
"Miss, which Mu family are you referring to...?"
"Which other Mu family could it be? It's naturally Mu Nanxun's family." She hadn't originally wanted to reveal this. Once it was, the Xiao family would inevitably know her true identity.
Whether this is good or bad for her is still unclear.
However, since Liang Xiaoru has pushed her to this point, there's nothing she can do.
"Miss Mu Wenya of the Mu family is kind-hearted and takes good care of us servants. Back then, Liang Xiaoru was inexplicably cruel, actually poisoning Miss Mu's tea, almost killing her. Yet Miss Mu didn't blame her, and didn't even tell anyone. Liang Xiaoru, you have truly betrayed Miss Mu's trust in you!"
The Mu family is a household name throughout the country, and Mu Wenya's refined manners and kind heart are well-known. For Liang Xiaoru to be able to harm even Mu Wenya shows she is exceptionally vicious.
"If you don't believe me, just send someone to the Mu family to inquire and you'll find out."
Yi Yi spoke very sincerely. Given the magnitude of the matter, if she were to lie, she would easily be exposed.
Therefore, in other people's eyes, her words were almost certainly true.
"You're talking nonsense!"
Liang Xiaoru suddenly screamed hysterically.
Instead of getting angry, Yi Yi laughed. What, can't keep up the act of being crazy? Have your acting skills deteriorated in the past few years?
"I didn't lie. I told you the whole truth. Why don't we go and confront the Mu family?"
