Chapter 747: He Deserves to Die
Sheng Pengchi roared, "So you're just going to watch me go around begging for mercy? If the Ji family finds evidence, and I go around saying my son didn't kill anyone, how will the court officials view me?"
"I……"
Gou Yingya fell silent.
Sheng Pengchi looked at his youngest son again and asked, "Tell me the truth, why did you kill that man?"
盛二郎看了看四周，只能低声道：“我……我也不是故意的，就是去酒楼吃饭的时候，我看上了一个姑娘，想要让那姑娘陪我吃饭，但那个人居然敢多管闲事，我和我的朋友们就上前想要揍他。”
"We also forgot we were on the second floor. After a few hits, he fell down and died."
"The last punch that made him fall was indeed delivered by me."
"But many people didn't notice it at the time, and I realized it too, so I refused to admit that I killed him."
Sheng Pengchi's face turned pale. "Such an important matter, yet you didn't tell me and only claimed you were wronged. Now the Ji family has found evidence, which should be a witness, to prove that it was you who pushed that person. Now even if a Daluo Immortal came, they couldn't save you!"
"You've been in the capital for so long, and you didn't even know that man was the eldest son of Earl Yong'an."
"I've told you long ago to be careful when you're out there. There are so many high-ranking officials in the capital, many of whom hold higher positions than me. We can't afford to offend them, but you just wouldn't listen. Are you getting anxious now? Humph, you deserve to die!"
Sheng Erlang said anxiously: "Father, I am your only biological son, please save me, save me."
Sheng Pengchi asked again: "Let me ask you, after your eldest sister returned home many years ago, did you find someone to destroy her innocence, or even kill her?"
Sheng Erlang's face changed, and he looked very uncomfortable. "Father, this happened many years ago. Why are you bringing it up again?"
Sheng Pengchi taunted, "Because today I went to ask Awan for you again, and Awan used this to stop me! Didn't I teach you since you were a child that you should always leave room for others, because you never know when you'll need help from others, but you just won't listen!"
Sheng Erlang felt extremely regretful.
If he had known earlier, he would not have done those things.
"Answer me!"
Sheng Erlang said: "I...I did do those things."
Sheng Pengchi asked solemnly: "What else have you done to bully her? Tell me everything!"
Sheng Erlang hesitated. Now that things had come to this, there was no point in hiding it. "I...I just didn't allow the kitchen to prepare meals for her, I stole her monthly allowance, smashed her room, scared her with poisonous snakes at night, and pushed her into a well. But everyone around her helped her deal with it, and she didn't get hurt much."
"No harm?" Sheng Pengchi shook his head. "You still don't know you're wrong. It seems you're really hopeless. If you die, it won't be unfair."
With that, he sighed and turned away.
“Father, father!”
Gou Yingya looked at her son distressedly, "Son, as long as the verdict hasn't come down, you can still be saved. Don't worry, I won't give up on you until the last moment."
Sheng Erlang: "Mother, you must hurry up. It's been so long. I even suspect that the Ji family is deliberately dragging me along, wanting me to suffer more and die a miserable death."
