Chapter 60: Release from Prison
Zhao Xiaoyuan dragged her tired body back to the slum, ignored the strange looks from the people around her, went straight back to her room, lay on the bed and thought about nothing.
"Xiaoyuan, will mom cook you a bowl of noodles?" Bai Huifen was a little worried when she saw that her daughter had lost a lot of weight.
She has lost so much weight that she doesn’t look like her husband as much as before!
"No need, Mom, please go out. I want to be alone for a while." Zhao Xiaoyuan said in a hoarse voice.
Since that day when she and Chu Yuqing were taken to the Public Security Bureau by the Lin family, they have been locked up.
She insisted that she was forced and thought she would be released. However, the police did not listen to her explanation at all. They determined that both of them were the masterminds and said they were murderers.
In order to exonerate Chu Yuqing, the Chu family even said that they were all bewitched by her and wanted her to confess to all the charges.
If she refused to confess, they tortured her, beat her, and deprived her of food. She couldn't bear it any longer, so she told the guards that she could confess, but she wanted to see the director of the police station alone.
In his previous life, in the 1980s, the Beijing Public Security Bureau chief Qin Aide was dismissed. It caused quite a stir at the time, after all, he had always been an image of justice.
The reason for his downfall was not corruption, but maintaining unclear relationships with multiple women. He was later caught on the spot and exposed.
She met Qin Aide alone and successfully seduced him.
Having lived to that age in her previous life, she understood that kind of thing and knew how to...
She has already been reborn, and she will never let herself be locked up like this. This is worse than my previous life. In order to get out, I didn’t care about my innocence.
Qin Aide was indeed fascinated by her young body.
But he was timid and cowardly and did not dare to offend Gu Yu. This would allow her to live more comfortably in there and not starve anymore.
A few days later, good news came. Qin Aide told her that Gu Yu would be transferred soon, and he would be able to make arrangements to get her out then.
She had no impression of the name Gu Yu in her previous life, but she would definitely take revenge in the future.

Zhao Xiaoyuan stood up and asked her mother, "Mom, is there any news from the Lin family?"
Bai Huifen got angry when she mentioned the Lin family, and cursed: "Why mention them? They are really heartless and ruthless. They actually locked you up without any regard for our sisterhood."
"And Lin Xiuli didn't invite our family to her wedding either."
After knowing that her daughter was locked up, she went to Lin's house several times to look for her, but she couldn't even get into the military district gate. The guards would warily drive her away when they saw her.
Zhao Xiaoyuan saw her expression and realized that her mother probably couldn't even get through the door and was very stupid.
There was no news from the Lin family, let alone Ling Luochuan.
She lowered her eyes, wondering whether Lin Xiuzhu and Ling Luochuan were engaged in advance. It seemed that she still had to find out the news from the Lin family, otherwise she would not be able to rest easy.

In the Chu family villa in the east of Beijing City, there was a burst of violent pounding sounds. Chu Yuqing was making a big fuss in the room, things were scattered all over the floor, she was emotionally broken and started smashing things crazily.
"I don't agree to cancel the engagement, ahhhh."
Chu Lin was also a person in a high position, and he couldn't bear to see that he had such a stupid daughter. Ling Luochuan even went to Old Ling for help, but he had no feelings for her at all and didn't give the Chu family any face at all.
Before, she had caused trouble for the woman because of this matter and was put in jail due to pressure from the Gu family. If he hadn't found a way to get her out, would she have been locked up for only a few days?
It was a complete disgrace to the Chu family. He angrily scolded, "You are a daughter of the Chu family. You can find any man you want. Can you be more ambitious and learn from your cousin and see how she behaves."
"I want Brother Ling. Ha, no matter how good Chu Yulan pretends to be, what's the point? Gu Yu chased her directly to Yucheng, and she couldn't even see a hair."
"Besides, Gu Yu is already with that bitch, and Brother Ling is still single, so I still have a chance."
Chu Yuqing was already devastated by recent events, and when she heard her father using Chu Yulan to provoke her, she became even more furious.
Chu Yulan has been good at pretending since she was young, and the elders all like her more, but they know her true face.
After being locked up, she recalled carefully that it was Chu Yulan who told her about the bitch Lin Xiuzhu, and she pretended to be kind enough to let Zhao Xiaoyuan lead her there because she was afraid that she didn't know the place.
It turns out that Gu Yu, whom Chu Yulan has always had a crush on, also likes that bitch, and then she lets herself step forward. She is so perfectly invisible and still maintains her good image.
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Chu family felt sorry for her daughter, so she quickly hugged her and coaxed her, "Okay, okay, Mom will go talk to your aunt Ling again. My daughter is better than that Lin family member in every way."
Chu Lin watched coldly as his wife doted on their daughter. They had three sons and only one daughter, so it was inevitable that he loved her more. However, he didn't expect that she would be spoiled rotten and stupid.
Not wanting to look at the mother and daughter anymore, he turned and left abruptly, the anger in his eyes chilling.
No matter how stupid the daughter of the Chu family is, outsiders cannot bully the Chu family. He cannot touch the Gu family and the Ling family for the time being.
However, the Lin family is not even ranked in the core circle and has no backing, so it is very easy to deal with them.
The Chu family has a strong backing in Beijing and is now very prosperous. They live in a three-story Western-style building.
Mr. Chu's three sons and their respective families also live together.
Chu Yulan heard the noise upstairs and quietly appeared at the stairs. She just happened to hear Chu Yuqing mentioning Gu Yu and that little bitch, and a sinister and vicious light flashed in her eyes.
At the beginning, when she learned from Gu Tong who the woman was who had seduced Gu Yu and made him disappear all day long, she didn't know why, but she didn't seem that surprised.
She felt uncomfortable as soon as she saw Lin Xiuzhu for the first time. Her intuition was so accurate that it was terrifying.
She thought that with Gu Yu's ruthless character, he would definitely not only care about beauty like other men. He would choose a wife who could help him and the Gu family.
Moreover, she had observed before that there was nothing wrong with Gu Yu meeting beautiful lesbians and he didn't even glance at them twice.
But she didn't realize that once a person becomes nice to a certain extent, there is no such thing as a "Liuxia Hui".
What she didn't expect was that Gu Yu would give up his bright future in Beijing and follow her to Yucheng. Wasn't he afraid of affecting his future and being scolded by Mr. Gu and Uncle Gu?
She really couldn't understand how such a smart and ruthless person could do such a stupid thing. She was even laughed at by the idiot Chu Yuqing because of it, and her years of waiting became a joke.
No, she would not give up marrying up, nor would she give up that position. Without Gu Yu, there would be others. She would make Gu Yu regret not choosing her, and she would make Lin Xiuzhu live a life worse than death.
Chu Yulan's eyes were red, and she turned around and left angrily with heavy steps.
