"Qin Fangang, you're not being serious!"
"What's there to be serious about with my own wife? If I'm being serious, it proves that the man is incompetent. Baby, tell me the truth. What do you think of my ability? "
“”
That's why it's said that men sometimes take advantage of others. Xinyu thought that this man was usually serious in front of others, but every time he hugged her, he was always so indecent. This special contrast made her feel very sweet.
However, she wasn't as thick-skinned as him. Seeing that he was talking with such gusto, she decided to change the topic. "So when are you going to take me to see my mother?"
Qin Fangang was stunned. His devilishly flirtatious expression disappeared as he licked his lips. "I've already made the arrangements. You can go in to see her, but her name in there is no longer Tao Wantian."
Xin Yu bit her lip and unconsciously tightened her grip on his wrist. "Then what is she called?"
"She doesn't have a name. I only know that she has a code name in there, 7745. If you've really decided that you can see her, then I'll take you there, but I can't go in. Only one person can go in at a time. Xin Yu, I also hope that you can see your mother as soon as possible because Yi Feng has already signed the contract. If nothing goes wrong, in three days, the 20% shares of the Lu Clan that he holds will be directly transferred to my name. "
Xin Yu heard this and immediately understood. "Does that mean that my father can be released from Qingshan?"
"Baby, I'll do my best. If nothing goes wrong, when we return to B City, we'll be able to get your father out." Qin Fangang said, "But we can't stay in B City for too long. If Lu Shiyun knows that we're in B City, he'll know everything that we know."
Hearing how serious he was, Xin Yu's heart started to beat like a drum. She had already accepted Lu Shiyun's true colors, but because she had accepted him, she realized how scary that person was. She was very worried.
"Will he let them go? I'm worried that something will happen to my father. "
"Don't worry. Your father is currently in Qingshan. He won't be in any danger. I'll send someone to keep an eye on him." Qin Fangang patted her shoulder and comforted her. "Baby, the most important thing now is to see your mother immediately. When you see her, you must remember to ask her about what happened five years ago."
Xin Yu nodded. "I know."
Qin Fangang could hear the trembling in her voice, and he knew what she was worried about. He hugged her and said softly, "Don't be afraid, that's your mother. I know you haven't seen her for five years, and you always thought she was no longer in this world. When you see her all of a sudden, you definitely won't be able to accept it. But don't be afraid, baby, you have to believe that no matter what the truth is, your parents love you deeply. All the suffering they have suffered all these years must be to protect you."
B City Prison.
Since the release time had passed, all the prisoners in the prison began to return to their own residences. In fact, it was a small room less than 10 square meters. The prison here was different from other prisons where several people could live in one room. Here, each prisoner lived alone. There was no communication between prisoners.
The woman sat on the edge of the small wooden bed in a daze. Her hands tightly grasped a corner of her loose and shabby prisoner uniform. Her room didn't have a window. A place like this wouldn't have windows for people like her. Every day, she only had a small space for relief. She couldn't feel anything from the outside world.
She thought of the years when she first came in. She couldn't adapt. She was in pain and suffering. In the darkest years of her life, she didn't know how she survived.
She would never forget the words that man said to her five years ago. Now that she thought about it, it was as clear as if it was beside her ears. Every word was so cruel.
I know you think you're innocent, but this is how the world works. Only the fittest survive. The last thing you should do is to know something you shouldn't know. I don't want to kill people anymore. I always believe in retribution. If I take a person's life, I'll have to abstain from meat and pray to Buddha for 10 years. I might not be able to wash away the sins on my body. I've always believed in karma. What's more, I'm a businessman. Everything I do, I think there's nothing wrong with it. I'm fighting for everything I want. So I'm sorry, I have to lock you up in this place forever. As long as you listen to me obediently and don't say another word, I won't hurt the people you care about.
The woman's dark fingers slowly reached out, trembling as she carefully touched her cheek. Her breathing began to become a little rapid. She didn't know why, but today, those memories that she hadn't recalled for more than five years were raging in her mind like a raging river and overturning sea.
It had been too long. It had really been too long. She thought she had really forgotten and given up. But why did she still feel so hateful when she thought about it?
Her fingers touched her skin. Her fingertips paused. The voice became clear again. You have to know that I really don't want to hurt you. I can't bear to hurt you, but there's no other way. To me, the most important thing in this world will always be the business in my hands. Forget everything you know and rot in your heart. That way, you can keep your life. The most important thing is that your daughter can live a happy and worry-free life. You know that I never lie. I will definitely do what I promise you.
The woman suddenly trembled. Those things that she didn't want to remember the most suddenly rushed to her face, making it difficult for her to control her emotions. The moment she stood up from the bed, the metal door outside suddenly clanged. Someone came in.
The woman was shocked because no one would come at this time. She had forgotten what day it was. In the past, there would always be one day a month a year when someone would come to see her. But the last time that person came, he clearly told her that he would never come again.
Come out, someone wants to see you.
It was the prison guard's voice. The woman's long hair covered most of her expression, but she was still surprised to hear that someone wanted to see her. She didn't know who would come to see her at this time.
Was it him?
But when she calculated the time, she felt that it was unlikely. She couldn't remember what day it was, but she knew that it had been less than half a year since he last came to see her. How could he suddenly come to see her?
But in this world, other than that man, who else would come to see her? Who else would know that she was still alive in this world?
Are you deaf? I asked you to come out. Come out, someone wants to see you. Hurry up.
The prison guard's impatient voice interrupted the woman's wild thoughts. She took a deep breath. Living in this prison for so many years had caused her expression to stiffen. Even her breathing had to be done carefully. Although living here wouldn't lead to death, it would lead to torture, especially for those who didn't cooperate. These prison guards didn't care if they were men or women. As long as they disobeyed, they would be beaten ruthlessly. She had seen such bloody scenes before, so she didn't even dare to breathe.
With the prison guard's roar, the woman naturally didn't dare to delay any longer. She quickly nodded, grabbed her trousers, and followed the prison guard out.
She never spoke. The prison guard walked in front, holding a baton in his hand. He patted his palm from time to time, and turned his head several times to look at the woman who was quietly following behind him. Some of the people who were locked up here hadn't seen anyone outside for more than ten years, let alone see anyone. But this woman used to have people coming to see her every year at a fixed time. Now, another person came, but it wasn't the same person as before.
The people locked up here were similar to prisoners on death row. It was impossible for them to see anyone without a certain relationship. This woman never spoke, but her relationship was quite complicated.
Leading her to the door of the reception room, the prison guard tapped the woman's chest with the baton in his hand. You know what you should say and what you shouldn't, right? Oh, I forgot. You never speak. Let me tell you, you have ten minutes to meet. Later, I will knock on the door. After I knock, you can come out by yourself. The person who came to see you today … Anyway, don't play any tricks on me. Okay, go in.
After the prison guard finished speaking, he pushed the woman's hand and pushed open the small iron door of the reception room. With a creak, the iron door opened. Before the woman could stand firm, she was pushed into the reception room by the prison guard.
Xin Yu had been very nervous. She set off from the hotel half an hour ago, and Qin Fangang accompanied her all the way. On the way here, she was very nervous. Qin Fangang knew that she was uneasy, so he comforted her all the way and told her not to be nervous. Although he couldn't accompany her in, he would wait for her outside.
It wasn't easy to see Tao Wantian. Even if Qin Fangang had the ability to turn the world upside down, he couldn't control such a complicated prison. Moreover, he had just returned from England. In this world, other than the connections and social circles that could be shaken with money, there were also some that were maintained with power.
At the end of the day, Qin Fangang was just a man. He had great business skills, but he had to admit that he did not have many connections in B City. If he wanted to meet Tao Wantian, he had to use Situ Lin's connections to get her to meet him.
Seeing the prisoners here couldn't take more than ten minutes.
Lu Shiyun was different from him. Lu Shiyun had taken root in this circle. The connections he had were far more complicated than he thought. Since he could get people in, it was naturally easier for him to see someone than he thought.
Therefore, Xin Yu also knew that it wasn't easy for Qin Fangang to help her get these ten minutes.
When she came in, Qin Fangang also asked her to wear a mask. After all, this was a prison. Her body had just recovered. Other than wanting her to cover her face, he also didn't want her to be infected with any germs.
Xin Yu didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. After she was brought into the reception room, she looked around. It was a very small room. There was only one table and two stools. There wasn't even a window. The entire space was filled with a kind of oppressive feeling, making it hard for people to breathe.
She didn't know if she was instinctively repulsed by this kind of space because of the elevator, but since she came in, she had been trying hard to control her emotions. She wanted to relax. She was very afraid that she would suddenly have a fear of this kind of space. Perhaps it was because she was really facing her own weakness, she could slowly relax.
The oppressive feeling was quickly suppressed. Although it was still a little uncomfortable, it didn't make her collapse like when she was in the elevator.
She sat on the stool alone and waited for five minutes before she heard the metal door creak open.
