Chapter 271 Good People, Bad People
Shen Siyuan remained silent for a long time after hearing what Xiao Yue had recounted.
Yu Qiaoqing killed someone and must pay with her life, which is fair and just.
But had she truly gone to the police station to turn herself in, considering her voluntary surrender and the lack of intent to kill, the judge would certainly not sentence her to death, but likely imprisonment instead.
Perhaps with good behavior over the years, she might even be released early and have a chance to see her daughter again.
Now, however, that path is completely cut off, and she is eternally separated from her daughter like heaven is from earth.
"She was a really good mother, you know. Even in death, she didn’t forget Sun Yanan, always following her around, protecting her..."
"Sun Yanan came back from school and saw the letter from her mother; she was heartbroken and panicked, constantly crying..."
"Why did it come to this, when their affection for each other was so profound..." Xiao Yue’s voice choked with emotion.
"Now that she’s dead, what will become of Sun Yanan? The police said that she has been without a father for a long time, and now she has lost her mother as well..."
Shen Siyuan comforted her: "I know you have sympathy for her, but everyone must pay the corresponding price for their mistakes."
Xiao Yue nodded understandingly, she too understood this principle, but still couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Sun Yanan.
