Xia Yuge sat down opposite Qin Muni, a hint of a mocking smile appearing at the corner of her lips, and then Zhang Qi, with sowhat dry lips, said, "Who would have thought that in my most down-and-out mont, the only person I could think to ask for help was you."
She considered that her social connections weren’t bad, and she knew quite a few high-ranking officials and aristocrats in the upper society, yet to her surprise, when she ended up in prison, the only one she could turn to for help was Qin Muni.
Those high-ranking officials and aristocrats she knew always dreaded Xu Yisen’s identity as the chairman of the Fanshu Group, and to avoid offending Xu Yisen, they naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to help her.
She also considered reaching out to Xu Yisen, but since Xu Yisen had remarried Qin Muni, he naturally followed Qin Muni’s lead, and if she went to Xu Yisen, whether he would co to see her was a question.
Even if he did see her, even if she pleaded with him to get her out, she feared that as soon as the visit ended, the first thing he would do was call Qin Muni for her opinion.
Because she was once rumored to have been involved with him, to avoid future conflicts with Qin Muni, when handling matters related to her, he would of course inform Qin Muni first.
So, after thinking it over, the only person Xia Yuge could think of was Qin Muni.
Qin Muni didn’t respond to Xia Yuge’s words. Through the distance of a glass window, her gaze at Xia Yuge was extraordinarily calm, without sympathy or aversion, like a tranquil lake on a sumr afternoon, with no ripples whatsoever.
Tears imdiately filled Xia Yuge’s eyes, and she lowered her gaze in so sha, speaking, "I know everything in the past was my fault. I want to apologize to you. I’m sorry; I was too selfish and willful."
"I shouldn’t have stirred up trouble between you and Yisen, shouldn’t have offended you, and definitely shouldn’t have let Xia Weifu hit you with a car. I’m sorry, really sorry."
By the end, Xia Yuge’s voice beca hoarse, remorseful tears slipped from her eyes, and she slowly raised her handcuffed hands, bowing her head as she buried her face in her palms, her frail body trembling slightly.
Qin Muni, sitting across from Xia Yuge, despite hearing her sincere apology, didn’t let any expression surface on her face, remaining very calm.
She didn’t know if Xia Yuge truly regretted what she had done in the past or if it was just to sway her into helping her get out.
However, she didn’t want to know whether it was the forr or the latter because she had no intention of rescuing Xia Yuge.
After Xia Yuge sobbed with her face buried for a while, Qin Muni finally asked with so impatience, "Did you ask here just to say these things to ?"
Only then did Xia Yuge put down her hands and raise her head.
Due to crying, she looked even more disheveled. Shaking her head with reddened eyes, she said, "No, I asked you here to beg you to help leave this place."
"How can I help? The police already have solid evidence proving you shot Xia Weifu."
"No, no, it’s not true! They forced to shoot! They forced !"
Qin Muni knew that when Xia Yuge said "they," she was referring to the JR Gang.
In fact, in Xia Yuge’s heart, she blad Qin Muni for handing her and Xia Weifu over to the JR Gang, with whom Xia Weifu had a past grievance.
However, she couldn’t show this resentnt because she now needed Qin Muni’s help, and naturally couldn’t let Qin Muni see her grievance.
"Is that so?" Qin Muni asked coldly, and whether she believed Xia Yuge’s words remained unclear.
Xia Yuge nodded vigorously, perhaps reminded of the horrific scene that day, and tears once again flowed from her eyes.
