Nan Yan stopped him.
"The police are here; don't take matters into your own hands," she advised the headmaster first, then turned to Meng Decheng and said coldly, "We refuse to settle this privately."
"Mr. Police Officer, in a case of framing and malicious intent involving an amount exceeding ten million, how would it be sentenced?" the police officer asked.
"According to our country's laws, a minimum of ten years of imprisonment," the police officer replied.
Upon hearing this, Meng Decheng's expression turned anxious. He had only wanted to gain favor with Shen Wu, hoping for a raise and promotion in the future.
However, now he might be facing imprisonment.
Nan Yan calmly added, "Then let him go to jail; we won't accept a private settlement."
Meng Decheng's face changed drastically, and he hastily pleaded, "Lao Yu, I beg you, give me a chance to reform. Can we not pursue this any further?"
