Chapter 710: No longer human —-1
Qiu Bai however could not outrun the guards who ran after him and soon he was cuffed and tied with a rope as he was dragged to stand in front of magistrate Li who looked down at the mer with a small stature and asked, " Do you regret what you did?" She was not being sympathetic over this mer who looked like he could not even hurt a fly, she just wanted to know whether or not this mer was capable of feeling any remorse for his actions.
As long as he was remorseful, she would have sent him to a reformation farm instead of the prison but when Qiu Bai stayed silent she knew that the man was not at all regretful for what he did and nodded, " I see then it's a shame, you had one chance to save yourself but pity that you threw it away as well."
Qiu Bai raised his head to look at Magistrate Li., it was as if he wanted to say something to say the latter but Magistrate Li was not known for her generous actions in fact it was right to say that she was someone who did not give another chance once they mess up. It was either once or never.
" Take him away," without giving Qiu Bai a chance to say anything, Magistrate Li waved her hand asking her guards to take him away to the carriage and then drive him to the Yamen before throwing him inside the prison of the yamen.
The guards who were holding the arms of Qiu Bai dragged him with them, and the latter seemed to have woken up from his daze as he shouted, " I regret it, I regret it very much. Magistrate Li please let me go!"
He was a mer there was no way he will be able to stay in the prison, in fact, he was certain that life in the prison will be worse than that of a divorced mer. He might even be assaulted every day in the Yamen since there was no law in that place and the mers had absolutely no rights, once he goes inside that prison he might be reduced to a mere plaything.
But no matter how much Qiu Bai screamed now, he has lost his chance to take the opportunity when it was handed to him even if the reformation farm was a prison as well, there only stayed mers and their conditions were a lot better than that of the mers who stayed in the prison of Yamen together with the women.
Qiu Bai was dragged to the carriage and when he tried to move too much, the guard on the left raised her hand and slapped him hard on the face which made the latter cough out blood since the woman's hand was too heavy for him.
His cheek immediately swelled up and his eyes turned red as he lowered his head looking wronged but this woman was no longer one of the villagers who treated him rather well since he was frail and weak looking when she saw that Qiu Bai was acting weak, she spat on his face and sneered, " Do not even think of pulling that stunt on me, all right? I am not a fool. You might have fooled these people here by that pretty face of yours but I just heard your ruthless words of acceptance when you said that you were responsible for killing the child."
Qiu Bai understood that he will not be let off and allowed himself to be dragged to the carriage but before going inside he turned to look at his wife. He hoped that she will plead leniency for him since they have been married for so many years and give him this small mercy but the thing was that Second Aunt Yu did not even look in the direction of Qiu Bai.
She was staring at Magistrate Li and Marquis Qiao seemingly wanting to talk with them since her promotion was affected by Qiu Bai's foolishness when Qiu Bai saw how heartless his wife was toward him even till the end, he pursed his lips and bit his bottom lips.
' Looks like he did a good job poisoning that bitch as well,' he thought in his head ruthlessly.
That was right Qiu Bai who was afraid that his wife will bring another mer from the outside since she played around a bit too much when she was going out with her colleagues. He was worried that he will have to suffer in case she got anyone pregnant which was why he chose to poison his wife with an infertility poison, anyway he did not want to give birth to another child after Yu Cheng who was like an achievement to him, so it did not matter to him that his wife gets him pregnant again or not.
In the past, there were times when he felt sorry for his wife but not anymore, in fact, he was glad that he chose to poison that heartless woman and made her infertile like the four husbands of Yu Dong, now even if she was to marry another mer, the only one who will rule that house will be his son!
As Qiu Bai thought of such things, he looked at his wife who was trying to get closer to the magistrate and sneered, it's all right. This woman was not as clean as she made herself look either, one of these days she was going to fall on her face as well!
