"This can't be real..."

"You're lying to me, aren't you? This Divine Envoy organization, this Hall Master, it's all fake..."

Yu Wan didn't believe a single word of this document.

Yu Wan put the documents into a file bag and tossed it to Qin Buyu, as if by doing so she could pretend nothing had happened.

But is it possible?

Qin Yiheng scoffed: "That's why your mother was taken away. You don't need to look for her anymore. Just consider her dead!"

"You're the one who's dead!" Yu Wan retorted angrily, "My mother isn't that kind of person!"

Qin Yiheng's tone remained unchanged: "Facts speak louder than words. Just because you speak loudly doesn't mean you're right. The law will not wrong an innocent person, nor will it let a guilty person go free."

Yu Wan broke down.

Tears welled up in her eyes and rolled down her cheeks: "Why? Why did she do that?"

"You'll have to ask your mother."

Qin Yiheng smiled slightly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes; his gaze was as sharp as a blade: "But can you keep your word?"

Yu Wan stared at the man on the screen through teary eyes: "W-what did you say?"

Qin Yiheng coldly asked, "It seems like it's a matter of life for life?"

Fu Lin's sharp gaze suddenly fixed on him.

Yu Wan's breath hitched.

"Of course, Miss Yu doesn't have to keep her promise..."

Yu Wan took a deep breath and interrupted him: "If I die, can I really exchange my mother's life for mine?"

"You can give it a try."

"Give it a try?"

Yu Wan repeated, looking at the screen with a sorrowful smile: "Okay, but before I die, I want to see my mother one last time."

She had no other choice.

She didn't believe what the information said, nor did she believe what these people said, but since she couldn't see her mother, she had no choice but to agree in order to hear her mother deny it herself.

Qin Yiheng raised an eyebrow: "Just one meeting is enough?"

"Yes!" Yu Wan nodded vigorously.

Qin Yiheng turned his phone towards Fu Lin, and a moment later, his tone was full of malice: "I saw it, you can die now."

"mom!"

Yu Wan saw Fu Lin, but she had never seen Fu Lin so disheveled. Her eyes filled with anger, and she shouted, "Mom! Did they mistreat you? Mom, say something!"

Qin Yiheng chuckled and said sarcastically, "Miss Yu, I hope you recognize one fact: your mother is in jail, not staying in a five-star hotel!"

"..."

Yu Wan was speechless.

After a long pause, with red eyes, she said angrily, "My mother is old, she can't bear that suffering. I hope that after I die, you will keep your word and release my mother..."

As soon as Fu Lin heard this, she knew Yu Wan was about to do something foolish, and she couldn't help but shout, "Yu Wan, shut up!"

Yu Wan thought she was hallucinating: "Mom?"

Fu Lin narrowed her eyes, revealing a ruthless killing intent as she stared at Gu Yunzhen: "Release Yu Wan, and I will tell you everything I know."
