That incident had the potential to ruin Wu Pingting. She might have never been able to live like a carefree little princess ever again after it, and might have been made to watch enviously as Xu Yunyun married Xu Feiyang.
Who could have guessed that that incident would become a turning point in both of their lives?
Xu Yunyun looked at Wu Pingting, who was sitting high and mighty beside Nangong Nuannuan, and then down at herself, kneeling on the ground. She thought about how she might spend the rest of her life in a Luntan prison. Without her parents’ visits and help, and with the prison guards’ and prisoners’ beatings and abuse, Xu Yunyun would soon be dead. She wanted to slap herself to death.
She did not even dare to think about Xu Feiyang right now.
She only hoped that she could return to Sea District and go to prison there instead.
She did not want to stay in this terrifying Luntanese state prison.
If she stayed here, she definitely would never leave alive.
Xu Yunyun kowtowed to Wu Pingting with a bang. “Pingting, I really know the mistake I made! I don’t know what happened to me to do such a thing to you. I felt very regretful after the incident. Seeing you go crazy made me really sad. I cared about you getting better, so when I heard that you had recovered, I came to see you so happily. Since we grew up together and have been good friends ever since we were young, could you please forgive me just this once? Please, Pingting!”
Seeing this, Su Fei knew that her parents were useless now. These prison guards had dared to chase her parents out and beat her without restraint. Su Fei knew that this was not something she could control.
Even though she hated Nangong Nuannuan’s arrogant face, she knew that she had to bow to it if she wanted even the smallest sliver of a chance at staying alive.
If she could not leave Luntan, her parents would not be able to save her.
Therefore, despite cursing Nangong Nuannuan ten thousand times in her heart, she had no choice but to imitate Xu Yunyun and kneel in front of Nangong Nuannuan now.
“Miss Nangong, Xu Yunyun was the mastermind behind this all! She was jealous of Wu Pingting and hurt her, so the Wu family wanted to capture her. She came to me to avoid being arrested. My father and her mother are siblings, and she knew that I had connections in Luntan, so she came to me and begged me to take her to Luntan.
“Miss Nangong, even though we’ve had a misunderstanding before, it was a very, very small misunderstanding. After we got off the plane, there was no more bad blood. You definitely wouldn’t kill me over such a small matter, right?
“Miss Nangong, it’s all Xu Yunyun’s fault. I just accompanied her to Luntan. If you want to punish someone, punish her! I’m really innocent!”
Xu Yunyun was nearly angered to death. She roared, “Su Fei, are you shameless or what? I have no grudges against Miss Nangong. You heard that she was coming to Luntan and did not know that she was Miss Sunny from the Duke’s residence, so you wanted to attack her. You thought that once she died, you would be able to seduce Lieutenant General Chi, and even if you could not, no one else could either. You tricked me into helping you hire a murderer. Now you’re blaming this crime entirely on me. How could you be so shameless and despicable?”
“Xu Yunyun, you’re the most shameless person in the world! What do you mean that you only agreed to Wu Zongxu’s request on impulse? It’s all a lie!”
