Zhuo Qianyun left, and there was a hint of confidence on Yan Qiongying's face.
She seemed to be confident that Zhuo Qianyun would find a way to get her out of this bloody place!
"Zhuo Qianyun, you’d better not let me down!" muttered Yan Qiongying.
...
Zhuo Qianyun never thought Xia Xi would end up as Yan Qiongying had told her—mad and abused!
In her mind, Xia Xi was an independent woman with great skills. Xia Xi never told her why she was sent to prison but had taken great care of her back then.
Even when she was having difficulty giving birth to Lil Yan, it was Xia Xi who managed to find a doctor to help her survive.
When Xia Xi was released from prison, she gave Zhuo Qianyun her contact information. "You're the only one I’m giving my contact information to. Don't give it to anyone else. Feel free to contact me if you face any trouble after getting released. I'll do my best to help."
"Why would you help me?" She could not figure it out. After all, she could not give Xia Xi anything in return for her help.
At the time, Xia Xi said with a smile, "Maybe it's because you look like someone who needs help. And I'm soft-hearted. I'm going to get justice for myself after getting out of here. It may take some time, but I'm sure I'll get what I deserve."
Zhuo Qianyun got out of prison a year after Xia Xi was released from prison. She contacted Xia Xi at the time.
Now that she finally had one, it was with Yan Qiongying.
It would be fine if Yan Qiongying was just bluffing, but she was afraid that Yan Qiongying was telling the truth. If Xia Xi was suffering from such ordeals and was miserable, how could she be deserving of Xia Xi’s help back then if she did not try to save her now?
The next day, Zhuo Qianyun went to see Ling Yiran. "Yiran, I want to ask you something. Is there any possibility of Yan Qiongying getting acquitted?"
Ling Yiran said, "No way! There's no way Yan Qiongying can be acquitted with all the evidence against her—unless everyone changes their statement and the court follows the principle of presumption of innocence!"
Zhuo Qianyun's red lips were pressed together tightly as she frowned. "Then... if she gets a lawyer to defend her, what's the best outcome she can get?"
