"You are finally here to save your mother! Tell them! Tell them your mother is a good person! Tell them I never harmed anyone!"
Xu Meiyan frowned, her face twisted in pain. "Mom! You're hurting me! Let go!"
But Mu Lihua didn't let go. She pulled Xu Meiyan into the middle of the circle, using her daughter like a shield. "Tell them! Tell them your mom is good! She could never do anything wrong!"
Xu Meiyan looked at the angry faces of the tribe, then at the cold, judging eyes of Su Qinglan and the blood-red eyes of the Tribe Leader.
She couldn't do it. She couldn't lie for her mother anymore. The evidence was too strong, and the fear for her own life was even stronger.
"Mom, you're wrong!" Xu Meiyan screamed, tears finally bursting from her eyes.
"Everyone has seen how you bullied Su Qinglan since she was a child! It is the truth! How can I say you didn't do it? And I never knew anything about your disgusting schemes! Why are you dragging me into this?"
