Chapter 727: Chapter 719 Intentional Injury Crime Chapter 727: Chapter 719 Intentional Injury Crime Finally, after hiding for several days, she eventually stepped out of her home.
As soon as she inhaled the fresh air outside, she felt her breathing become smoother.
Really, she was so scared that she dared not go outside for so long, only to find that the more she lived, the more timid she became.
It was all self-inflicted fear; there was nothing to be afraid of.
Once she went out, she both strolled the streets and shopped.
Even though she had no money, she still couldn’t allow herself or her daughter to suffer.
Besides, money was not an urgent matter.
In a few days, she would go to Tang Yuxin again.
She felt her own attitude had been too harsh.
If she softened her stance next time, Yuxin would surely agree.

Then that hundred thousand yuan would be in her pocket.
Even if she had done something wrong to her, she was still her mother.
Would Tang Yuxin really let her own mother starve to death?

She happily bought vegetables and meat, preparing to make dumplings for Wei Tian and Jiani.
“Mom, you finally went out to buy groceries.
I thought you wouldn’t go out again, what good would be in the house?
Were you looking for gold?”
Jiani had also been sick of instant noodles recently.
But with no vegetables or grain at home and nobody willing to shop, they had to subsist on instant noodles.
She was glad they wouldn’t have to eat them anymore; otherwise, she would have considered running away from home.
However poor their family was, they couldn’t live on just instant noodles, right?
Sang Zhilan smiled awkwardly and uncomfortably.
Of course, she couldn’t tell Wei Tian and Wei Jiani that she went out to make money, only to end up causing trouble instead of earning any.
She ate the dumplings she had made herself and indeed they tasted good.
She thought the matter would just pass, and there would be no further consequences.
Yet before she could enjoy even a single carefree day, the police arrived one morning.
They cuffed her hands without regard to her crying and fussing.
In the end, she was still stuffed into the police car and taken to the station.
Both Wei Tian and Wei Jiani were frightened by the situation.
Although their family liked to take advantage of others, none of them had ever been arrested.
The things they did were shameless and devoid of dignity, but they had never committed any serious offenses.
At most, their fault was greed, not criminality, and they had never harmed anyone’s life.
Sang Zhilan was crying and making a fuss as she was pressed into the police car, her hands cuffed.
Any movement of her hands caused such pain that she trembled with it.
It was really too painful, so she dared not move her hands rashly or look around carelessly.
“Officer, have you arrested the wrong person?”
Sang Zhilan genuinely felt the police had made a mistake.
She was just an ordinary woman.
Although she loved to take advantage of minor opportunities, like outwitting vegetable sellers or not returning found items, these were all common practices.
Surely they weren’t grounds for arresting her?
“Your name is Sang Zhilan?” The officer who arrested her asked again.
“Yes, I am Sang Zhilan,” she nodded hastily, “Officer, I really haven’t done anything wrong.
You can’t arrest the innocent.”
“Do you have a daughter named Tang Yuxin?” The officer continued to question.
There were many people with the same name, but daughters with the same name were unlikely, right?
And as soon as Tang Yuxin’s name was mentioned, Sang Zhilan’s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Yuxin was dead?
With this thought, cold sweat oozed from her forehead.
Naturally, she stopped claiming she was innocent or that there had been some mistake.
“Is that so?” the police asked again.
Sang Zhilan’s body shuddered, then she numbly nodded her head.
“If it is, then we haven’t arrested the wrong person.”
The police eyed Sang Zhilan for a long time, and that look made it hard for Sang Zhilan to speak.
Of course, her fear had turned into terror.
If she was afraid when she first got in the car, now she was absolutely terrified.
She was scared, truly scared.
“Is she, is she alright?”
Sang Zhilan asked again, her voice small.
What she really feared now was that the officer would say she had pushed someone to their death.
If that person really died, what would she do?
It wasn’t intentional, she really didn’t mean it.
If Tang Yuxin hadn’t provoked her, she would never have done such a thing.
If only the prescription had been given to her earlier, she wouldn’t have had to push anyone.
So it was all someone else’s fault, never her own.
Selfish people are always like this, whenever something happens, they always find fault with someone else, never once considering whether they might be at fault themselves.
“She’s fine, why would we arrest you otherwise?”
After saying that, the police stopped talking to Sang Zhilan.
Starting from that moment, Sang Zhilan became restless.
Every time she looked outside the car, she wanted to jump out, even if it meant breaking her bones.
She didn’t want to go with these people, as if they were coming for her life.
But she didn’t jump out in the end, partly because she didn’t have the courage, partly because she was afraid of pain, and also afraid of dying.
It wasn’t until the police car brought her into the station that she realized she had been sued by Tang Zhinian for intentional harm.
The surveillance nearby had captured her pushing the person, her face clearly visible.
Even if she denied it, there was no denying it because, besides the footage, there was also her voice.
This was indeed hard evidence, and undeniably so.
And in her wildest dreams, she hadn’t anticipated being sued.
She was sued by Tang Zhinian.
Intentional harm is a crime punishable by prison time, but she didn’t want to go to prison.
She couldn’t go to prison.
If she really went to prison, what would happen to her Jiani?
How would she go on living?
She had been locked up here for two days, becoming more and more agitated by the day from her initial calm.
“Sang Zhilan, someone’s looking for you.”
Sang Zhilan was counting the days, wondering when she could go back, just sitting and waiting.
When she heard someone was looking for her, she immediately stood up and ran towards the outside.
She was different from the others in there.
Although they were all in the same cell, her crime was the lightest.
Whether she would end up coming back in was still uncertain.
And she had nothing to fear.
With someone like Tang Zhinian who had a spineless character like a ‘Baozi,’ how could he actually sue her?
And what about Tang Yuxin, did she dare incur divine wrath, daring to send her own mother to prison?
Her footsteps were quick, thinking maybe Wei Tian and Wei Jiani had come.
They were going to take her back.
It could be a bail, right?
Surely it was Wei Tian coming to her rescue.
