Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Mr. Sheng is Very Loving

"Imperial grain? Imperi..." Bai Yueru finally understood and grabbed her son’s hand urgently, "Shaochen, what have you done? How could my daughter-in-law be like those people described online? She must have been wronged. You, how could you let her be locked up? With her petite figure, she must be suffering terribly. No, you must call An Zhe right away, I will go bail her out myself!"

Sheng Shaochen embraced Bai Yueru and said, "Your daughter-in-law is truly fortunate to have a mother-in-law like you who dotes on her and believes in her so much. The noise on the internet has been too loud these days, so... But Mom, rest assured, your daughter-in-law will be fine."

"If that’s true, it’s for the best. But I’m warning you, if anything happens to my daughter-in-law, I will hold only you responsible. A girl’s family has let her suffer in such a place, really..." Bai Yueru’s heart ached at the thought of Ye Shu’s rosy and tender face.

Sheng Shaochen chuckled and teased, "Mom, seeing how worried you are, it makes me wonder, is she my wife or yours? By the way, is everything alright with Grandma?"

Bai Yueru then replied, "Don’t worry, son, I’ve got it under control. I was just worried because of the uproar online these past few days; I feared Grandma might take her anger out on Xiao Shu. So, I invited two venerable monks from Dewang Temple to come and teach her Zen. She hasn’t had the time to pay attention to the outside world. However, you need to make an effort to clear your wife’s name as soon as possible, understand?"

"Understood, Mom, don’t worry, it shouldn’t take too long." Sheng Shaochen said, escorting his mother inside when his phone suddenly rang.

An Zhe sounded anxious on the other end of the call, "Ah Chen, I just found out that Ye Shu has been arrested. I’m going to bail her out immediately."

"There’s no need, that’s her wish," Sheng Shaochen replied with a somber expression, then asked, "How is the investigation into Ye Shengli’s death going?"

"I was just about to tell you, after a covert investigation, we found DTB residuals in Ye Shengli’s body, which is a component used to control the central nervous system. Also, there was a micro-electronic chip inside one of the Buddhist beads he wore on his neck. What the chip is exactly, we’re still looking into. And the DNA results won’t be out for a few more days."

"Alright, you go back to it, and remember, keep a close watch on the Black Widow Seven Killings’ movements. Notify me immediately if you discover anything."

"And with Ye Shu’s situation, you’re sure you don’t need my help?"

"Not for the time being." Sheng Shaochen hung up the call and recalled An Zhe’s words about Ye Shengli; his brow furrowed instantly...

In the evening, at the gates of Jin City First Prison.

Because Ye Shu was implicated in a major case involving human life, she was taken directly to prison after giving her statement at the police station.

She was very aware that if Sheng Shaochen forcefully intervened, she could be released on bail to await trial outside of prison without suffering the torment of incarceration.

But she couldn’t let Sheng Shaochen do that because he was not only her Mr. Sheng but also the CEO of a massive family enterprise. She couldn’t allow her situation to harm his reputation excessively.

Some things must be endured alone. Besides, insisting on this approach was her own plea, which Sheng Shaochen had agreed to only after her repeated requests. She couldn’t give up halfway.

Just as she stepped off the police car, waiting for the prison intake procedures, a familiar figure entered her sight.

Why was he here? Tears swelled in Ye Shu’s eyes.

Even though she was wronged, finding herself in prison and watching the Demon King Sheng stride toward her, she didn’t know what to do and just looked at him with damp eyes, feeling a poignant sense of emotion.
