"I've come to pick you up. Yongnian is already waiting for you outside!" Fang Luxue said without any sign of disgust, pulling Wan Qiqi's hand and walking outside.

After taking a couple of steps, she suddenly remembered that there was someone else. Regardless of whether the other person wanted to or not, she took their hand and walked out.

Fang Luxue's energetic and decisive nature drew envious glances from many in the prison, but they could only admire her from afar.

Having grown accustomed to the dim lighting in the prison, Wan Qiqi couldn't help but raise her hand to shield her eyes when she saw the sun again.

It wasn't until her eyes adjusted and she could feel the warmth of the gaze that she truly realized she was out of prison!

What greeted her was not a broad and wide road, but people in official robes standing there steadily.

Fang Ziming, his face cold, said in a chilling voice, "Fang Lucue, you come here!"

"No!" Fang Luxue's face was full of resistance.

Wan Qiqi gently nudged Fang Luxue and said, "Be good, don't make things difficult for your father."

"But he's making things difficult for you! Knowing perfectly well that there's nothing wrong with your girls' school, he still had you arrested... mmm..."

Fang Luxue was forced to shut up by Wan Qiqi.

Wan Qiqi also appeared very honest, bowed to Fang Ziming, and said, "Lord Fang, has the case been investigated and cleared up? May Mr. Zhong and I leave now?"

Fang Ziming then ignored Fang Luxue, coughed twice, and said, "I have investigated the case thoroughly. It was that person who made a false report. He has been punished with fifty strokes of the cane. You and Zhong Le may leave now!"

"Thank you, Lord Fang." Wan Qiqi bowed to Fang Ziming again, appearing polite yet unusually distant.

Just as Wan Qiqi and Zhong Le were about to leave, Fang Ziming called her back again.

"Although the case is closed, you should not reopen that girls' school to avoid causing further trouble. This time, someone made a false report, but next time, who knows? Don't ruin your own future for someone else!"

Fang Ziming's words were both a warning and a notification.

Even if Wan Qiqi was unwilling, she was powerless to protect herself now.

She could only accept it calmly, and then left with Zhong Le.

Fang Luxue wanted to follow, but after taking only two steps, she was stopped by Fang Ziming's men, who prevented her from continuing to follow Wan Qiqi.

Wan Qiqi didn't look back and continued forward, just like the road ahead for her, which she could only forge ahead on.
