Chapter 198 : Severe Punishment!

“Mr. Fu, we agree with your assessment. The nature of this incident is too severe, and as school leaders, we cannot cover it up!”

Fu Sichan held a crimson cigarette between his fingers, his gaze deep and dark.

“Please transfer him to the police station, the group will send lawyers to oversee the process.”

The people in the room exchanged glances, cold sweat trickling down their backs.

The Fu Group was actually going to send lawyers…

In that case, Pang Chunzhu was doomed; he would definitely face the harshest punishment.

But this was all his own doing.

Who told him to have such malicious thoughts and resort to such vicious methods to harm a fellow student?

Lu Yunyao hadn’t provoked him, how could he be so cruel?

“Understood, Mr. Fu. We’ll proceed as you’ve said.”

…

The next day in class, before all the students, Pang Chunzhu was taken away by the police.

Before leaving, he loudly proclaimed, “Everything I did was for my goddess. I have no regrets!”

He struck a defiant pose, seemingly fearless, sacrificing for love.

Surely his classmates admired him.

Pang Chunzhu felt a swell of pride.

But that pride was quickly punctured.

“What? Intentional murder? Prison time?”

Hearing this news, Pang Chunzhu’s face turned pale.

He didn’t realize he would be facing prison; he thought the teachers were just trying to scare him.

For such a minor incident, he was actually going to pay the price of imprisonment?

The lawyer, dressed in a suit and pushing up his gold-rimmed glasses, looked at him coldly through the lenses.

“Mr. Pang, you are twenty years old and already an adult. Get ready to celebrate your twenty-first birthday in prison.”

Next to him, his mother was crying uncontrollably, nearly fainting at any moment.

If it weren’t for someone supporting her, she would have collapsed on the floor.

She wailed heartbrokenly, “My son! What were you thinking? Why didn’t you focus on your studies instead of harming others?”

“Quickly tell the police everything! Just name the person behind this, and you can get a lighter sentence! Hurry, say it!”

“I only have you as a child! If you go to prison, how will I live?”

Pang Chunzhu hadn’t anticipated such severe consequences awaiting him.

Now, his grand ideas of being a “hero” and “sacrificing for love” crumbled.

He finally knew fear!

But he would never agree to expose his senior!

Pang Chunzhu’s pale lips trembled as he quickly messaged his goddess.

“Senior, help me! I’ve been taken by the police, and they say I’m going to prison! For five years!”

“Senior, I’m still young. If I spend five years in prison, my life will be ruined!”

But he had already been blocked, and not a single message went through.

Pang Chunzhu frantically dialed her number.

After all, she was the woman he adored most, he knew her number by heart.

“Hello? Senior, it’s me…”

Beep beep beep…

As soon as she recognized his voice, she hung up and blocked his number.

Desperate, Pang Chunzhu grabbed his mother’s phone to text his goddess.

“Senior, I haven’t betrayed you! I just want to ask for your help. You have connections, can you help me get a lawyer to reduce my sentence? Once I’m out, I will always remember your kindness! I’m willing to do anything for you!”

After sending that, he couldn’t help but add, “Senior, you’re on your period, so remember not to drink cold water, it’ll hurt me to see that.”

His senior surely wouldn’t ignore him!

Pang Chunzhu thought to himself, having done so much for her, she would definitely be moved.

He stared at the entrance of the police station, waiting for the lawyer she would send to rescue him.

But he waited and waited, and in the end, no one came.

His phone dinged with a new message.

Pang Chunzhu’s heart leaped, he eagerly opened his mother’s phone.

He knew his senior couldn’t bear to leave him!

But when he opened the message, it read “Since you’re willing to do anything, then you can go to prison for me.”

Boom!

Pang Chunzhu felt like lightning struck him, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

That sentence cut into his heart like a knife, leaving him bleeding inside.

Yet he had no regrets!

He was sacrificing for love; he felt noble and proud!

Before losing consciousness, he remembered to delete the two messages, fearing this incident might implicate his senior.

“My son! Why won’t you reveal the mastermind? Are you trying to drive your mother to death?”

Seeing her son faint from fear, Pang’s mother couldn’t bear it any longer and collapsed herself.

…

After resting in the hospital for a few days, Lu Yunyao returned to school, where the situation had already been handled by Fu Sichan.

“Yaoyao, we’ve all heard about Pang Chunzhu’s attempt to harm you. He’s been taken away and is about to go to prison!”

Lu Yunyao was a bit surprised. “How long is he going for?”

“Rumor has it he’s facing attempted murder charges, starting at five years!”

Lu Yunyao placed a hand on her belly, feeling that five years wasn’t too severe at all.

If she hadn’t reacted quickly and broken the window glass in time, her baby might have already been in danger of being harmed.

Just five years, too light a punishment for him!

“I heard that a wealthy family has sent the most famous lawyer. It’s impossible for Pang Chunzhu to escape severe punishment now. Yaoyao, this lawyer was sent by your family, right?”

After all, everyone knew Lu Yunyao was the daughter of the Lu family.

However, she hadn’t told her family about this incident yet, including her pregnancy. She still hadn’t found the right moment to inform her parents.

In her heart, Lu Yunyao had an inkling of who might be behind the support she received.

Aside from the Lu family, only her Mr. treated her this well.

Warmth filled her heart.

She smiled gently, “Yes, it’s my family who sent him.”

Her Mr. was also her family!

Fang Yanran said, “All the new classrooms are locked to prevent anyone from accidentally walking in. They’ll be opened for students only after twenty-four hours of ventilation to ensure the formaldehyde dissipates.”

Thanks to Lu Yunyao’s incident, the school became aware of the hazards posed by open classroom doors.

If a student accidentally entered a new classroom to study, lingering too long could have negative effects on their health.

“Yeah, that sounds good,” Lu Yunyao nodded.

However, she still felt puzzled.

“Yaoyao, what are you thinking? Why do you look so worried?”

Lu Yunyao sighed, “I’m wondering why Pang Chunzhu targeted me. I don’t even know him.”

Until today, she hadn’t even heard of his name.

Why would he go to such lengths to harm her and her baby?

Who was behind his actions?
