Seeing his grandson suddenly looking like a wilted cucumber, Gu Huadong was a little worried and asked him.

"Child, what happened? Why are you suddenly so listless?"

Grandpa and Grandma are not ready to know the truth yet; they are too old. Let them think there is still hope.

There is a big difference between waiting with hope and waiting to die without any hope.

"It's nothing. Grandpa, don't worry about it. I was just thinking about something."

Su Ying, standing to the side, didn't believe it at all. She knew this man quite well; for Gu Sinian to show such a helpless look in his eyes, something serious must have happened.

He must have thought of something, or perhaps all of them in the car would never have the chance to get out again.

She could feel the man's hand trembling as he held hers; if it was trembling like that, something must have happened.

Since the man was unwilling to talk about it, she didn't intend to ask for clarification.

Her rebirth and her appearance changed the original trajectory and direction of events.

In her previous life, at least five members of the Gu family survived, but in this life, the entire family was wiped out. It was her rebirth that triggered the butterfly effect.

Grandpa Gu, Gu Sinian, and Gu Yuanhong are all prominent figures; the higher-ups would not allow them to die so easily.

Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu's previous generation is gone. Will their fate in this life be the same?

The poisoning of dried yellow peaches resulted in the deaths of more than a dozen people, and many others who ingested the poison are being treated in intensive care units. In such a massive case, those who were seen as the perpetrators by others had no chance of surviving.

After analyzing the situation and making a fuss for so long, everyone was exhausted and began to doze off, leaning against each other.

Unsurprisingly, this group of people were imprisoned in the county jail.

In the dim, gloomy, and eerie place, Su Ying never imagined that she would one day be in such a sorry state, actually ending up in a gloomy prison.

Ten days later.

Their acquittal came so quickly that they were all stunned.

This surprised everyone. They had been there for ten days, and no one had visited them or said they would thoroughly investigate their case.

How could he be acquitted so suddenly? What went wrong?

Su Ying touched her nose and asked Gu Sinian in the softest voice, "Could it be that your friends in the military helped to overturn the case? Although the Huo family and Shen Jiachen set up the scheme together, they didn't have the power to cover everything up. As long as they did it, they would leave traces."

"no."

"The charges were already firmly established, yet there's a day when the case could be overturned. It's truly unbelievable. Could it be that Grandpa or Dad's friends helped to overturn the case?"

Gu Sinian shook his head. "After the Gu family's incident, no matter how close our friends were, they all cut off all contact with the Gu family, afraid that we would rely on them. How could they possibly have friends who would help us in our time of need?"

"That's true."

She has firsthand experience of how no one will offer help in times of need. After her family was labeled as capitalists, all her former close friends and relatives kept their distance, not daring to get even a step closer to her, for fear of bringing them disaster.

"How do you explain our sudden release? So many people died in the dried peach poisoning incident. How could someone without influence order around someone who had taken bribes?"

The question Su Ying raised was also one he couldn't understand: "The truth will naturally come out after we get out."

This was the first time the prison guards had seen such a situation; they weren't even eager to release the prisoners, so they knocked on the iron gate with their batons.

"Hurry up and get out of here! You're getting addicted to being in jail!"

Su Ying asked very politely, "May I ask who saved us?"

The prison guard said impatiently, "I'm only responsible for guarding the prisoners. I know nothing else. If you don't want to get out, you'll be locked up for a few more days."

As soon as the prison guard said that, everyone in the prison started running out...

Fearing that if they hesitated even a moment, they would be imprisoned again...
