"Thud—"
The parents of the Cheng Family suddenly made a move that greatly surprised them, falling to their knees in front of Qiao Chutian and Mai Xiaomai.
Mai Xiaomai was shocked and hurried to help them up, "Uncle, Auntie, what are you doing?"
"Xiaomai—"
Cheng's mother grabbed her hand, tears streaming down as she choked up and pleaded, "For the many years of friendship you had with Dongcheng, please help him. Don't let him be sentenced to death, okay?"
It was then that Mai Xiaomai understood their purpose.
"Auntie, what can I possibly do to help Dongcheng?"
Mai Xiaomai said with a bitter smile, tears also streaming down her face.
To kill a person was to pay with one's life, this was the law in China Country, moreover, Cheng Dongcheng's case was extremely heinous, involving the killing of two people. Even if she were the judge, she'd be powerless to help.
