Soon, the media found out about Zhou Meiqin’s detention.
The news online and on TV were all reporting the story, urging the police to get to the bottom of the matter and seek justice for Mu Weiwei and her dead mother.
However, Zhou Meiqin did not answer any of the police’s questions and she asked to see her husband Li Jiacheng, otherwise she would not answer any questions from the police.
Under the pressure of the public opinion, the police had to speed up the investigation, so they arranged for someone to go to the Li Family and persuade Li Jiacheng to meet the suspect.
Li Jiacheng turned her down at first, but on the third day, he followed the police to the police station and finally met Zhou Meiqin in the meeting room.
However, as they sat opposite each other, they no longer looked at each other as a couple.
Li Jiacheng looked cold and Zhou Meiqin looked lethal.
“Li Jiacheng, I didn’t expect that after having survived so many years together, that in the end… you would be the one who brought me here.” Zhou Meiqin sarcastically laughed.
Li Jiacheng looked a bit sheepish.
“I will find the best lawyer possible and get you the lightest sentence…”
“For twenty years, my youth and my efforts have all been wasted on a cruel man like you.” Zhou Meiqin said and burst into tears.
She had not even been by his side for more than ten years and yet she had helped him establish a foothold in the company and helped him take over the Mu Family’s assets.
And she had even killed Mu Yao, who was trying to stop them from being together.
But they had only been officially together for two years and he had betrayed her without hesitation.
“Meiqin, there is no other way. You should understand me.”
Li Jiacheng was not feeling good about the situation either, but he did not want to give up everything he had now.
Without the company, he would not be able to work for anyone else at his age.
“You think that you can get the company from Mu Weiwei, just because you betrayed me?” Zhou Meiqin snorted.
Instead of looking at Zhou Meiqin’s face, Li Jiacheng said, “She has signed the agreement with me. She will give up the company once your case is confirmed…”
“Li Jiacheng, never!” Zhou Meiqin gritted her teeth.
“You indirectly killed someone. You will be sentenced to at most eight or ten years, but if you have good behaviour, you will be released within a few years.”
Li Jiacheng thought that as long as she stayed in prison for a few years, the company would be safe.
“Eight or ten years?” Zhou Meiqin sneered and asked, “I have been tolerating you for more than ten years and now you want me to stay in jail for another eight or ten years?”
“You did that on your own accord, what does it have to do with me?” Li Jiacheng pulled a long face, when he realized that she was going to drag him into it.
Although he knew about the car accident, he was not involved.
Zhou Meiqin coldly smiled at the sight of the man, who had changed his face so easily.
He had asked her to stay in jail for eight or ten years, but he himself wanted to move to another company, and within the next two years, he would marry another woman under the urging of the Old Lady.
But she, Zhou Meiqin, was not that noble. When she had blindly fallen in love with him, she had accepted whatever she had to do, for him.
“Li Jiacheng, if you don’t want me to have a good life, then no one will have a good life. If I can’t run away, then are you really that innocent?”
Hearing her tone, Li Jiacheng lowered his voice and asked, “Zhou Meiqin, what are you doing?”
“I want you to suffer the same fate as me.” Zhou Meiqin said and left the meeting room.
“Zhou Meiqin, Zhou Meiqin…”
Li Jiacheng was about to stop her, when he saw Zhou Meiqin leave with the policewoman.
