Chapter 582 Peace Talks

The lawyer took a deep breath and said, "Since there is no evidence and so much time has passed, the possibility of filing a case is very small."

"Xie Mu, can't I call the police?"

The lawyer shook his head. “Without evidence, it’s difficult.”

After coming out of the law firm, Xie Min was a little dazed.

After two hours of consultation, she only got one fact: the current situation was extremely unfavorable to her and there was almost no hope of turning things around.

The "breastfeeding divorce" that netizens felt sorry for her did not exist.

Fu Sheng is not a public figure, and this little bit of heat will soon fade away.

She now has only one choice, which is to reconcile with Fu Sheng. She will clarify in front of the media and ask him to withdraw the lawsuit in return.

But Xie Min was unwilling to accept this!

Since childhood, Xie Mu has been better than her in every way. When the two stand together, others always see Xie Mu, and she can only be Xie Mu's foil!

It wasn't until she was with Fu Sheng that everyone's attention finally fell on her.

One time, when Xie Min returned to the village, she overheard a teenage girl arguing with her mother. She said, "...I don't want to go to school...What's wrong with a junior high school diploma? Didn't Xie Min also graduate from junior high school? Look how successful she is! She married a rich second-generation man, wears all the designer clothes, and even supports her younger siblings. Xie Mu graduated from university, but he still has to work for her! I'm sure I'll find a more powerful husband than her in the future!"

Xie Min was very happy. She was finally no longer Xie Mu’s background girl, and she became “someone else’s child”.

The light from Fu Sheng was so bright that it immediately overshadowed Xie Mu's faint fluorescence.

What she couldn't do even if she tried her best, Fu Sheng could solve with just one word.

The feeling of being the center of attention and being on top of others had such a huge impact on her, it was so addictive and unforgettable.

It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

Xie Min has become addicted to that kind of life.

But suddenly, Fu Sheng discovered the truth and wanted to "divorce" her.

Everything she has will become Xie Mu's!

How could Xie Min accept it?

She could imagine how the villagers would laugh at her and gloat over her misfortune when they found out that Fu Sheng had divorced her and was with Xie Mu. They would belittle her even more, praise Xie Mu, belittle her parents, and praise her uncle to please Xie Mu.

My parents are very concerned about their reputation. If they lose face, they will vent their anger on her.

She could also imagine that she would have to continue working, look at other people's faces, and work hard to earn money for a month, but the money she earned would not even be what Fu Sheng earned in a day. However, Xie Mu could work in Fu's company, get a high salary, and fall in love with Fu Sheng!

Xie Min didn't want to go back to that kind of life, and she didn't want Xie Mu to take over everything she had, or even have more than she did!

But she and Fu Sheng did not get a marriage certificate, so the so-called "divorce" could just be announced to the public, and she had no way to do anything about it!

So, she contacted the media and deliberately revealed in the interview that Fu Sheng had an affair with Xie Mu.

In this way, when Xie Mu and Fu Sheng are together in the future, they will always be labeled as the "third party".

But she didn't expect that Fu Sheng would sue her directly.

He wanted to send her to jail!

Fu Sheng, he was so cruel that he didn't leave her any way out!

At this point, she had no choice but to reconcile with Fu Sheng.

Xie Min was filled with resentment and dialed Fu Sheng's number.

The bell rang for a long time.

Just when she thought she was about to hang up, the call was connected.

Fu Sheng's cold voice came from the microphone, "Hello? What's going on?"

"I want to talk to you about reconciliation. I'm very sorry that my comments in the media have had a negative impact on you. I was impulsive and didn't do it on purpose. I can help you clarify things in front of the media. How about you withdraw the lawsuit?"

Fu Sheng was silent for two seconds, "Not very good."

Xie Min's heart tightened, fearing that Fu Sheng would not agree to withdraw the lawsuit. "Then what do you want? As long as I can do it, I can agree to it."

"Xie Min, the one you're sorry for isn't me, but your cousin Xie Mu. You witnessed her in distress that night, but stood by and watched coldly. Then you impersonated her and took her child away. Now you're even smearing her in front of the media, severely impacting her life. How has she ever wronged you?"

Xie Min opened her mouth, trying to say something. "I... I wasn't just standing by and watching. I was just too scared. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to beat you, and I'd get hurt myself. Should I be blamed for protecting myself?!"

"You could have called the police, you could have called for help. The building was full of guests, you could have asked security for help. There were many options, but you didn't do anything. You know the truth. Besides, when you first saw me, you weren't afraid, you were secretly delighted."

At that time, he saw through Xie Min's character, but he didn't think too much about it.

"What do you want?" Xie Min was irritated. She hated being compared to Xie Mu. "How can I withdraw the lawsuit?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you. I haven't considered peace talks, and I won't withdraw the lawsuit."

Seeing that Xie Min was still stubborn, Fu Sheng hung up the phone.

Hearing the mechanical sound from the microphone, Xie Min looked at the black screen in disbelief.

Didn’t Fu Sheng ever think about peace talks?

Did he really want her to go to jail?

They had been together for several months, how could he be so cruel?!

How could Xie Min be willing to accept this?

She hailed a taxi and headed to Fu's Building.

After arriving, Xie Min identified herself to the front desk and asked to see Fu Sheng.

The receptionist glanced at Xie Min and said, "Please wait a moment. I'll ask something."

She made an internal call and explained the situation.

A minute later, the R&D center called back.

Under Xie Min's expectant gaze, the receptionist shook her head in a friendly manner, "Manager Fu is busy and doesn't have time to see you. Please go back first."

Xie Min wanted to make a scene to lure Fu Sheng out.

But she couldn't bring herself to do that, otherwise it would only push Fu Sheng further away.

Apart from "helping Fu Sheng clarify the matter in front of the media", she had no other bargaining chips with Fu Sheng.

So Xie Min went to the underground garage.

Next to the Fu Building is a large shopping mall and another office building, which are connected by underground garages.

Xie Min walked around the parking area reserved for Fu’s employees, found Fu Sheng’s car, and waited there.

After waiting for more than an hour, it was time for Fu’s employees to get off work. The cars next to them drove away one after another, and the parking space became empty.

Fu Sheng never showed up.

After get off work, he usually works an extra hour or two.

After an unknown amount of time, footsteps were heard in the empty and quiet underground garage.

Xie Min moved her stiff ankles and looked in the direction of the sound.

The person who came was indeed Fu Sheng.

She walked over quickly, "Fu Sheng!"

Fu Sheng walked towards the car without stopping, pressed the key to unlock it, and said coldly, "Didn't I tell you clearly? What do you want me for?"

"I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Can you give me another chance? I promise I won't disturb your life again."

Seeing Fu Sheng about to get in the car, Xie Min quickly grabbed his hand and said, "After all, we've been together for a few months. Can you please not be so heartless?"

Fu Sheng paused and glanced at her. "Since you say that, I'll give you a chance. If you publicly apologize to Xie Mu in front of the media, I'll withdraw the lawsuit."
