“I’ll testify in defense of Mu Cidian’s rightful defense. You’ll admit in court that you orchestrated this kidnapping and rape case!” Xin Zaozao enunciated each word, speaking harshly to Wan Quan.

Wan Quan looked at Xin Zaozao in disbelief.

She knew that Xin Zaozao was not a woman to be trifled with now.

She knew that the conditions Xin Zaozao would propose would not be anything good.

She glowered at Xin Zaozao, her whole body trembling, yet not knowing how to lash out against her.

This woman was becoming more and more formidable, more and more intimidating!

She stared at Xin Zaozao, her face flushing red.

Xin Zaozao remained calm and composed, regardless of what Wan Quan was going through, she remained calm, waiting for her response.

A very long time passed.

Perhaps Wan Quan was about to explode, she said, “you’re dreaming, Xin Zaozao!”

It seems Xin Zaozao had also anticipated this outcome.

How could a heartless person like Wan Quan possibly back down?

The truly pitiful one should be Mu Cidian, for having such a ruthless mother.

Xin Zaozao said, “So, you’re unwilling to sacrifice yourself for Mu Cidian, in fact, it wouldn’t even be a sacrifice, just the truth. You’re not even willing to defend your own son’s innocence. What right do you have to ask me to spare him? To me, Mu Cidian is but a tool, a tool to drive you insane, just as you see Mu Cidian as one.”

“Enough Xin Zaozao! I didn’t use Mu Cidian as a tool, I just wanted him to understand, the vengeance for father’s murder!”

“Whether or not that’s the truth, you know very well.” Xin Zaozao didn’t want to argue with Wan Quan.

Anyway, neither she nor Wan Quan would ever truly consider Mu Cidian’s feelings.

Nobody cared about what Mu Cidian wanted, or what would make him happier.

They could only cause him pain in their struggle against each other.

Xin Zaozao said, “There’s still time before the trial. You can go back and think about it. Whether or not Mu Cidian, who is 26 this year, wants his life to be tainted, depends on your decision!”

“You’re really something, Xin Zaozao! Really something!” Wan Quan said vehemently.

At that moment, she was furious but couldn’t do anything to Xin Zaozao.

She stormed out, angrily throwing open the door of the office.

Standing at the entrance were Yan Zihuan, who had been there the whole time, and Song Lifei, who was there to report his work.

Even Yan Quan, who had already stepped back, was standing at the door.

Wan Quan gave them all a scornful look as she walked away.

Yan Zihuan made to follow her.

But Yan Quan held him back and went in himself.

He closed the door behind him.

In the room, Xin Zaozao’s expression remained unchanged.

Compared to Wan Quan’s state when she left, Xin Zaozao seemed extremely composed.

She looked at Yan Quan and gave a faint smile, “Can I help you?”

“Did Director Wan come to give you trouble again?” Yan Quan asked, concerned.

“She can’t cause any trouble for me now.” Xin Zaozao didn’t care much for or feared Wan Quan anymore.

Once a nightmare in her younger days, she found that when she finally learned to fight back, it wasn’t that bad.

Yan Quan knew that Wan Quan had been causing trouble recently and had never ended well, he was just worried about the general manager, Mu Cidian, and said, “I heard that General Manager Mu has woken up.”

“Yes. ” Xin Zaozao responded, showing respect to Yan Quan.

She felt that the reason she was able to take over Xin Group smoothly was because Yan Quan was helping her.

She didn’t agree with anyone else’s view on this.

Yan Quan said, “It seems General Manager Mu was seriously injured this time.”

“Perhaps.” Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been unconscious for a week and in intensive care thrice.

“I saw the news reporting that General Manager Mu was likely acting in self-defense…”

Xin Zaozao’s eyes flickered momentarily.

Yan Quan knew that Xin Zaozao’s testimony was needed for self-defense, not Mu Cidian’s alone.

“Actually, General Manager Mu has been pretty good to you. The breakfast that I sent you every morning was actually prepared by him.” Yan Quan said, trying to persuade the chairwoman.

Xin Zaozao smiled coldly at this.

She said, “The kidnapping case is all because of that breakfast. Because Mu Cidian arranged for someone to drug my breakfast with sleeping pills, which caused Nie Feng to be vulnerable and attacked…”

“Impossible! It’s not like General Manager Mu.” Yan Quan defended.

Xin Zaozao looked at him.

Yan Quan was quite certain, “If General Manager Mu truly wanted to do this, he would not have waited until now…”

“Uncle Yan, I know that you care for me, but there are many things that I hope I can resolve myself.” Xin Zaozao cut him off.

Actually…

She was quite aware of some things.

But the issue was, she could not overcome this particular hurdle in this lifetime.

Yan Quan sighed.

Since the chairman had spoken so clearly, anything more he said would overstep his boundaries.

He just felt somewhat regretful.

It was a pity that such an outstanding person like General Manager Mu was ruined just like that.

Hospital.

Wan Quan drove directly to Mu Cidian’s ward.

Mu Cidian was surrounded by various types of medical monitoring equipment. He couldn’t eat or talk now, and lay motionless in bed, his life completely sustained by external support.

Luckily, he had finally woke up.

The doctors said that although the accident did not damage any of his organs, his body functions were very poor. However, with sufficient rest and nutrition, he could fully recover.

Wan Quan sat next to Mu Cidian’s hospital bed.

Mu Cidian opened his eyes.

It seemed that in just half a month’s time, Mu Cidian had become so thin that it seemed like he was just skin and bones.

His whole eyes had sunk in, his face was all bones, not an ounce of flesh could be seen.

“I went to see Xin Zaozao today.” Wan Quan began immediately.

Mu Cidian’s eyes moved a little, but there were no signs of any emotions.

This week, he knew Xin Zaozao hadn’t visited him. Even while he was unconscious, he was still somewhat aware. All he heard was his mother’s voice, Xin Zaozao never came.

“Xin Zaozao didn’t even bother to look at you once. After all you’ve done for her, was it worth it?” Wan Quan harshly asked.

Mu Cidian closed his eyes.

It seemed like he didn’t want to hear any of this.

But Wan Quan didn’t stop, “Such a cold-blooded, heartless person like Xin Zaozao, don’t you feel that all your sacrifices were utter humiliations? I told you before, the Xin family are all ruthless people who would stop at nothing, but you wouldn’t believe it and insisted on going down Xin Zaozao’s path! Do you know what that woman said to me today? She said she won’t testify that you killed in self-defense! You killed for her, you’ve been on the brink of death for her, yet she just wants to take revenge on you!”

Mu Cidian still didn’t react.

All this, he had already anticipated.

Wan Quan became more agitated as he continued, “She even threatened me, threatened me that if I confess to the kidnapping, she would let you off.”

Mu Cidian seemed to move his throat a bit.

Xin Zaozao was getting smarter.

She could now stand on her own feet, live well on her own, and even learn to strategize and plan.

“I won’t do that.” Wan Quan emphasized to his son word by word, “I won’t succumb to her will, I won’t!”

Mu Cidian knew, his mother wouldn’t give up anything for her!

“If I did that, if I got locked up, would you help me seek vengeance on the Xin family? You wouldn’t! You would just be played even worse by Xin Zaozao! So, Mu Cidian, don’t blame your mother for being cruel. If I end up in jail, everything our family has suffered will just go down the drain! No matter what, Xin Zaozao wouldn’t be able to claim that you intentionally committed murder. The facts are clear. Everyone knows that you went to save Xin Zaozao and had no intent to kill. So you won’t be sentenced to death. As long as you’re alive, I’ll wait for you to get out. No matter how long it takes, I’ll give you everything when you get out.”

Right now, Mu Cidian couldn’t speak because of his physical condition, he couldn’t even eat.

Of course, he didn’t really want to talk.

He didn’t want to tell his mother that she couldn’t beat Xin Zaozao.

He kept his eyes closed, like resting, like sleeping.

Wan Quan stood up from Mu Cidian’s hospital bed, “You just focus on recovering. Don’t worry about anything else!”

Mu Cidian felt his mother leave.

After she left, he opened his eyes.

He thought, the conflict between their family and the Xin family should be ending soon!

Not from when he went to jail.

But with Xin Zaozao’s total eruption.

His eyes shifted slightly as he saw Yin Qin.

Yin Qin had been coming to check on him from time to time this week.

Even though they were just fair-weather friends, apart from his mother, only he had come to visit.
