CHAPTER 455: CHAPTER 455 "LIKE FATHER, LIKE DAUGHTER

For the next few days, Su Ge was swamped with studying and work at the laboratory.

End-of-term exams and experiments, neither could be neglected.

The only bit of free time she had was likely during lunch.

That day, halfway through her meal, she suddenly stared at her phone, the chopsticks dropping straight onto the table.

Zhu Huahua, sitting across from her, was startled by her reaction and looked up in astonishment, "Xiao Ge, what’s the matter?"

Su Ge didn’t respond, just stared at her phone without blinking, her eyes quickly reddening.

"Don’t tell me, what happened?"

Zhu Huahua hurriedly put down her chopsticks, then took a napkin out of her pocket and handed it to her.

Su Ge didn’t take the napkin but looked at Zhu Huahua with reddened eyes and slowly said, "Zhenzhen, sentenced... to three years..."

"What three years, what does it have to do with you..." Zhu Huahua was midway through her sentence when she abruptly stopped, her eyes widened, "Zhenzhen? Mu Zhenzhen? It can’t be her, how can that be possible..."

The girl looked so gentle and frail, how could she end up in prison?

It definitely couldn’t be her.

"Is it really her?" Seeing Su Ge’s expression, Zhu Huahua had to believe her, "What on earth did she do? There must be some misunderstanding, right? Does she need a lawyer? My trashy brother recently got a new lawyer, who is really dedicated. He’s about to be released. Should I introduce her to this lawyer?"

Su Ge didn’t reply, her gaze fixed on the news on her phone.

Due to Zhenzhen’s parents’ case of corruption and bribery resulting in incarceration causing a huge uproar in society, Zhenzhen’s current sentencing was also in the news.

And it also reignited the case of her parents.

Seeing Su Ge staring at her phone, Zhu Huahua snatched the phone and shouted after one glance, "What the hell? Mu Zhenzhen’s parents are also in prison?"

She scrolled down to the comments, and the top hot comment read, "Like father, like daughter."

"Damn it..."

Zhu Huahua quickly handed the phone back to Su Ge, then took out her own phone to search the news.

She originally wanted to defend Mu Zhenzhen, but found the internet filled with negative comments about the Mu Family; there was no place for defending her.

She sat there, frozen, not daring to say a word.

Now, Su Ge also sat there in a daze, was all of this what Zhenzhen wanted?

How could she be so foolish...

Su Ge suddenly got up and strode out.

Zhu Huahua hurriedly followed, "Xiao Ge, where are you going?"

More than a month later, when she came back to the prison, Su Ge’s emotions were completely different.

After completing the visitation procedures, Su Ge walked with heavy steps.

Finally, separated by a glass, she saw the elegant and serene Mu Zhenzhen.

The change of clothes didn’t seem to alter her much; the prison uniform, seemingly like a hospital garb, had no impact on her innate ethereal grace.

The moment she saw Su Ge, she smiled, a warm and tender smile like the sunrise in the early morning.

But Su Ge furrowed her brows and lifted the phone to her ear.

Noticing her troubled expression, Mu Zhenzhen quickly repressed her smile, picked up the phone and started with an apology, "I’m sorry, Xiaoge, I must have let you down."

"Why did you do this?"

Su Ge didn’t want to hear her apologize.

Why would she go to such extremes, sending herself to prison with her own hands?
