"But she is my daughter! Isn't it for the sake of our children's well-being that we risk our lives? Look, we've carried explosives and blocked bullets together..."
"So you're going to trade comradeship for her to go unpunished?"
Fu Qixun slammed the table so hard that the cups and plates jumped up.
"Last time, when you protected her and framed Qin Ying, you were just nurturing a tiger to harm her! Why didn't you think about the law at that time?"
Gu Zhenhua froze in place, his Adam's apple rolling up and down but he couldn't speak.
Those prepared words of pleas were like boiling lead, stuck in his throat and burning his conscience.
Fu Qixun placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the coffee table, making a dull "bang" sound.
"Old Gu, you and I are both wearing military uniforms. These uniforms are more important than any friendship, but... she has killed too many people!"
His tone was full of disappointment and determination.
Gu Zhenhua sat aside with an embarrassed expression, unable to speak for a long time.
He had no way to refute Fu Qixun's words. He didn't mention Fu Hanzhou's injury and coma.

"Caiqin, we just found out that Lao Gu was involved in Qin Ying's college entrance exam cheating case. What did he tell the police? He said, 'My daughter would never do such a thing.' Are you panicking now? If you condone her once, there will be a second and third time..."
She sighed heavily, with deep regret:
"Caiqin, Ping'an is your daughter, but she is with me. I have never treated her as an outsider. I hope she is in the same good mood as you. Now that something like this has happened, my heartache is no less than yours."
She slowed down, looked at Xi Caiqin and continued:
"Stop kneeling! Get up! Even if you kneel down all day, there's no turning back. This case has a huge impact!"
