Xie Nancheng, the heir of a top-tier wealthy family, suddenly developed a hidden illness. His pre-arranged marriage partner was swapped, replaced by a young adopted daughter from the countryside to...
Chapter 745: Abandoning the Rook to Save the King
"It doesn't matter who I am."
"The important thing is, do you think it's appropriate for you to operate the secret technique in Xiangcheng?"
"Does your family allow you to cast spells at will?"
"I'm afraid the special regulatory department in the north will come looking for you soon."
"None of your business, old woman, just shut up."
Mu Wanjun has made up her mind to help Tu Ran and Xie Nancheng, even though she knows it may cause some trouble.
But I still did it.
I just didn't expect to meet an old lady like this.
"Forget it, as long as you don't regret it."
In the blink of an eye, the old lady disappeared.
Mu Wanjun didn't give up and closed her eyes to sense it again.
How strange.
The old lady turned out to be a human.
It's not a monster.
I also can't feel any evil or negative energy.
Instead, she looks like an ordinary old lady.
But that's impossible.
How can ordinary people know so much?
The moment he was able to tell the secret technique of Chuannan, it proved that he was not an ordinary person.
The old lady was right about two other things she said.
First, she used Gu without permission, which was not allowed by the family.
Second, there should also be an official agency like the Public Opinion Bureau in the North that will handle such incidents in a unified manner.
But Mu Wanjun grasped one point: she was right, so what was there to be afraid of?
She did not use secret techniques to harm people, nor did she confuse right and wrong.
It was indeed Han Mengying who killed the person.
Xie Nancheng's father was indeed wronged.
What's wrong with these?
She did not help the evildoers and did not commit many evil deeds. As the saying goes... a man of integrity fears no slander.
So even if the family comes to handle it, or someone from the polling bureau comes.
She also has eighty words waiting.
Han Mengying was taken away after she went crazy.
The latest news is that she is already undergoing deep hypnosis.
Qiao Kelan went to look for Lin Chen, but to no avail.
He went to the police station again and was eventually given a serious warning.
She suddenly thought of something.
If my daughter really turns herself in, then... Xie Huaiyu will be released soon?
But since I had offended Xie Huaiyu before, he probably wouldn't pay any attention to me anymore.
so……
If the daughter really goes crazy and cannot be relied upon, then she still has to rely on men.
Qiao Kelan quickly went to see Xie Huaiyu. She just wanted to sacrifice the car to save the king. She was indeed smart.
Go to see him in the name of visiting and as a family member.
Xie Huaiyu wanted to refuse, but then he remembered that he had not yet explained the breakup to Qiao Kelan clearly.
I still plan to meet him.
He wanted to make things clear with this woman and cut off all ties with her.
In the meeting room.
Apart from looking a little haggard, Xie Huaiyu was fine otherwise.
The hairstyle remains the same and the clothes are warm.
Because of Xie Nancheng's actions and his status as a wealthy man, he was treated preferentially even in the detention center.
It didn't feel very painful.
It’s just that Xie Huaiyu was in a bad mood and was having a lot of internal conflicts.
So he lost a lot of weight and looked very haggard.
There are many things that make me feel more frustrated the more I think about them.
Qiao Kelan is still as coquettish and attractive as ever.
She was wearing expensive fur, which was bought by Xie Huaiyu before.
In the cold winter, she wore a hip-hugging cheongsam.
Her hair was tied up high and she had on exquisite makeup.
As soon as she saw Xie Huaiyu, Qiao Kelan burst into tears.
"Family members should pay attention to their emotions."
"Visiting time is ten minutes, so keep it brief," the prison guard reminded.
Qiao Kelan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Huaiyu, you have suffered."
"Isn't it all thanks to you, mother and daughter?"
"I've figured it out these days. There's a saying that goes, 'You reap what you sow.' I wasn't very good at judging people back then, and I was very kind to you and your daughter. But in the end, you betrayed me and I ended up like this."
"I deserve it. I'm unlucky." Xie Huaiyu has calmed down.
The painful time is over.
"Huaiyu, don't say that."
"I also have my own difficulties." Qiao Kelan cried.
"I don't want to hear your story. I didn't even plan to see you anyway, Qiao Kelan."
"The reason I changed my mind and disagreed with you is because I want to make it clear to you and end our relationship completely. Today I will tell you..."
Before Xie Huaiyu could finish his words, Qiao Kelan knelt down again with a thud.
"What are you doing? What tricks do you want to play? Haven't I been hurt enough by you and your daughter?" Xie Huaiyu asked.
"Huaiyu, I'm kneeling for Xiaoying."
"I'm sorry, kid."
"I admit that I was a little selfish before."
"But these days, I have no appetite and miss you like crazy."
"You are all on my mind. I can't imagine what my life would be like without you..."
"So, I persuaded Xiaoying to turn herself in."
"What?" Xie Huaiyu widened his eyes in disbelief.
"I couldn't get over it myself. Although the child didn't tell me much directly, I knew you weren't the culprit, so I forced her to turn herself in."
"I believe you will be out soon."
"You..." Xie Huaiyu was completely stunned.
I was originally going to break up and then scold Qiao Kelan to vent my anger.
But now people say they are persuading Han Mengying to surrender herself...
This... this reversal happened so quickly that he didn't have time to react.
"I know you won't forgive me easily."
"Wait until you come out, and I'll make amends for my sins."
"Xiaoying is my only daughter. After she turned herself in, her life is over."
"Your Xie family is rich, so nothing will happen to you."
"But I don't have the money. I can't come up with the compensation or the letter of apology to the victim's family."
"So my daughter may face a life sentence and spend the rest of her life in prison..."
"Huaiyu, no matter what, you shouldn't doubt my sincerity towards you."
"For you, I would even send my own daughter to jail."
"What else do you want from me?" At this point, Qiao Kelan broke down and burst into tears.
Xie Huaiyu didn't know the inside story, so he was naturally a little confused.
"Why are you doing this?" Xie Huaiyu looked at Qiao Kelan with complicated eyes.
"Of course it's all because I love you."
Xie Huaiyu was silent...
Love?
If it was more than a month ago, I might still believe it.
But over the past month, Xie Huaiyu could not see any love from the actions of this mother and daughter.
Instead, she frequently asked for money, which made him lose face in front of his brother's wife and daughter-in-law.
Those friends were also afraid of borrowing money from me, so they didn't dare to answer the phone.
The once glorious chairman is now just an old man who worries about money.
"Huaiyu, I came here today to tell you this news."
"Between my lover and my children, I ultimately followed my heart and chose my lover."
"I hope my daughter can understand you."
"It doesn't matter whether you understand me or not."
"But I really can't lose you."
After saying that, Qiao Kelan got up from the ground, wiped his tears, turned around and left.
"Kelan..."
"Huaiyu, if you have anything to say, wait until you come out and we will meet soon. I...will wait for you at home."
Qiao Kelan deliberately left halfway through his words.
Xie Huaiyu's mood became complicated again.
He even asked the prison guard beside him with some disbelief.
"Did Han Mengying really surrender herself?"
The prison guards here were all under the supervision of their superiors, so they quickly replied, "Chairman Xie, I don't know the details, but the information I received is that Han Mengying did surrender herself and is currently undergoing deep hypnosis."
