Liu Jingfen has now lost her husband, and her only son is about to face imprisonment.
She knew she couldn't save the person, but at least she didn't want such a heavy sentence, so she could have some hope.
The only way to mitigate his crime is for Fu Nanxiao and his side to plead for leniency and not pursue his responsibility.
However, Fu Nanxiao's attitude was already very clear, so he could only ask Jiang Yilai for help.
"Just say what you have to say."
"Sometimes I think, fate really loves to play tricks on people. Back when you were dating Junhao, I actually liked you a lot."
This is an attempt to appeal to her emotions. Back then, she also looked down on herself, so saying such things now just feels ridiculous.
When Jiang Yilai didn't respond, she continued, "Someone as outstanding as you, if only you two had been together back then, you wouldn't be in all this trouble today."
"You seem to have forgotten that you also urged Junhao to break up with me back then. You valued Jiang Lezhen more, after all, she was the daughter of the Jiang family."
"At the time, I was deceived by what the father and son said, but I actually really liked you."
"Do you think it's still useful to say these things now?"
These words made Liu Jingfen lose face, but she couldn't care less about that in order to save her son.
"Lai Lai, I won't beat around the bush. I just want you to help me out of consideration for our past acquaintance. The Fu family is already falling apart, and I don't want to lose both my husband and my child."
“If you have even a shred of guilt towards Qingyun, you should understand that Fu Junhao deserved what he got, and yet you still want to speak well of him. What’s the difference between you and an accomplice?”
Liu Jingfen was speechless after being rebuked. Jiang Yilai then said, "Qingyun is your grandson. You seem to love him, but in this struggle, you are just an observer and did nothing while he suffered."
"I...I didn't expect these things to happen either."
"You didn't expect this, but since you didn't refuse and didn't help him, you're an accomplice!"
What Jiang Yilai hated most was her indifference in this matter.
Now that it's Fu Junhao's turn to be punished, he's only worried now. What was he doing before?
“I was also in pain. If I could do it all over again, I promise I wouldn’t stand idly by.”
"No, you still will. The fact that you're pleading for him now shows that you don't know you're wrong at all. If you did know, you would make Fu Junhao accept the punishment he deserves."
Liu Jingfen tried to persuade her with family affection, but it seems that this approach is also ineffective.
She said dejectedly, "Can you really see me losing them? You haven't experienced this pain, so you don't know how desperate I am right now."
"It seems there's no way to reason with you. You should ask someone else."
Jiang Yilai hung up the phone, and Liu Jingfen held the phone for a long time without putting it down. Had even her last hope been shattered?
If even Jiang Yilai refuses to step forward, who can help his son?
General Manager's Office of Fu's Group
Qi Yuheng handed the quarterly report to Fu Nanxiao for review. Now that he had taken care of things at home, Fu Nanxiao wanted to focus his attention on the company.
"Boss, I've heard something recently."
Fu Nanxiao's eyes fell on the report in his hand, and he asked casually, "What is it?"
"It's about the company that Second Master owns. I heard that some members of the Liu family went there to liquidate it today, and they even contacted an intermediary."
Fu Nanxiao's eyes darkened. He put down what he was holding and looked at him, feeling a little ridiculous.
"So what do they mean by this?"
