Miss Cui Qiao seemed relieved. "I know asking for favors requires sincerity. I'll take a gamble. I'll tell you all about my past and ask you to take me back to the county yamen. I only beg you two gentlemen to help me... find my child... In my next life, I'll repay this favor with a chaste bond."
She has had enough of being exploited and trampled upon by others over the years.
If it weren't for... the knot in my heart, I would have gone to the government office and fallen into the trap long ago.
As for her hometown and parents...
Now that I am covered in filth, I don't have the face to step in even if my home is right in front of me. I have been loved by my parents for twelve years, but I can't even serve them in their old age. How can I let them suffer and be despised by others?
Xiao Guantang was shocked. He didn't expect that the poor guy he thought was a fugitive was actually a fugitive! ?
Xiao Cunyu didn't seem surprised. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I think... you may not have finished speaking."
Cui Qiao was stunned. "Sir, are you overthinking this? I've even confessed my identity as a fugitive. How could there be anything else I haven't said?"
"Trafficking other women should be just one of your crimes, but you have done more than that. You also killed someone." Xiao Cunyu said calmly.
“…” Xiao Guantang’s heart skipped a beat.
Didn't he and his seventh brother come together? Why did his seventh brother see it, but he didn't?
Cui Qiao's expression was stiff.
"If I tell you everything, will you really help me?" Cui Qiao looked at Xiao Guantang. She had met all kinds of people over the years and could feel that the man in front of her was different from the previous man.
"The child is innocent. We will send you to the government office, but we will also find your child and properly place him." Xiao Guantang nodded.
When he said this, Cui Qiao smiled and said, "Okay."
"Young master, you have a good eye. I have indeed killed people, but they were all people who deserved to die. It is not worth your anger at all." Cui Qiao's voice was soft, and he seemed a little proud.
Xiao Guantang frowned: "Human life is not to be trifled with."
"My dear, you are just kind-hearted," Cui Qiao said sarcastically. "Even though I'm trapped in this quagmire, I've never forgotten my parents and hometown. A few years ago, I wanted to escape back and tried every possible way to ask those men for help. They loved me and pitied me, and they always wanted to save me and help me sincerely. But in reality, each of them just treated me as a rarity, a toy for fun."
"Once they succeeded, they discarded me like a worn-out shoe. Even when I pleaded with them, they only spoke with sarcasm, as if I were no better than a roadside stone... Thousands have rested their beautiful arms on their shoulders, and thousands have tasted their red lips. They only know how to coax people, and never take their promises seriously."
"Seven or eight years ago, I was forced to seduce a man with my beauty. I saw a scholar fall for it, so I secretly told him the truth about the trap, hoping he would help me pass on a message to my parents back home. He agreed. Because I let him go, I was nearly beaten to death. But in the end, I waited and waited, but no one came to rescue me..."
"Later, I felt that the scholar was unreliable, so I looked for other people and tried every possible way to leave letters. They all responded nicely at the time, but then nothing happened..."
"When I no longer had to commit honey traps, I had already been roped into the trafficking ring of the Jin Gan Gang. I couldn't bring myself to implicate my parents, so even if I could deliver messages myself, I wouldn't dare do it... I even ran into those men back then. I questioned them, but they said it wasn't worth it to deliver messages for a woman like me."
"What a not-worth-it." Cui Qiao smiled.
"So the people you killed were those who broke their promise?" Xiao Cunyu asked.
"Yes, young master, you are really smart." Cui Qiao smiled, "The person who rescued me from the honey trap was the big brother of the Jin Gan Gang. Later, I did something for him, and he helped me get revenge."
