dless coldness, boundless waiting, and repeated disappointments. This kind of marriage is too tormenting, it's agonizing."Lu Hanchuan didn't expect that the marriage he brought her would be so suffoca..."No, because her only wish was to meet you all, so we didn't ask any further questions," Officer Tang said.

Fu Xiaoyao moved her phone aside, “Well Do you want to see her”

"Go ahead," Lu Hanchuan raised his eyes, "Didn't you still have something to say to her the day before yesterday"

"That's fine." Fu Xiaoyao smiled and put her phone back to her ear, "Alright, Officer Tang, we'll be there in a bit."

After the call ended, Fu Xiaoyao put her phone aside and picked up a spoon to start sipping her soup.

She wasn't planning on going right now.

She hasn't eaten dinner yet.

In her heart, food was far more important than Qi Ya.

An hour later, Fu Xiaoyao finished her meal and set off for the prison with Lu Hanchuan.

After they arrived at the women's prison, Officer Tang, who they had spoken to earlier, came over.

"Miss Shi."

"Officer Tang."

Officer Tang nodded, "Miss Shi, please wait a moment. Qi Ya wants to meet Mr. Lu."

Fu Xiaoyao looked at Lu Hanchuan.

Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes, "I'll go first."

"Hmm." Fu Xiaoyao replied.

"Let's go," Lu Hanchuan said to Officer Tang.

Officer Tang demonstrated a bowing posture.

The two walked toward the meeting room.

After Lu Hanchuan went in, he saw Qi Ya through the glass window. Qi Ya was holding a phone to her ear, tearfully looking at him.

Lu Hanchuan frowned, walked over, and picked up the phone outside, holding it to his ear.

"Hánchuān!" Qí Yǎ came with a voice choked with tears.

Lu Hanchuan ignored her.

Qi Ya suddenly laughed, a laugh of despair, "What's the matter Now you won't even say a word to me"

Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips, "What's the matter with you finding me"

"I'm sorry," Qi Ya suddenly lowered her head.

Lu Hanchuan was taken aback, "Sorry"

“Yes, I did a lot of wrong things to you. When we were together, you protected me, and I left you alone. You loved me so much, but I used your feelings to go further and higher, even bribing Dr. Liu to hypnotize you. I'm sorry, really sorry…”

At this point, she cried even harder, as if she had truly realized her mistake.

If it were anyone else, they might have believed it.

But Lu Hanchuan didn't. He clearly saw the scheming behind her tears.

At this point, she's still plotting.

“Alright, if that's all you wanted to tell me, there's no need for this. That's it.” Lu Hánchuan said, about to hang up the phone.

Qi Ya saw his actions and hurriedly called out to him, "Wait a moment, Hanchuan."

Lu Hanchuan stopped his movements.

Qi Ya tightly gripped the phone, "Hanchuan, don't you believe me I really know I was wrong."

"Do you actually know you're wrong, or are you trying to manipulate me with tears We both know what's going on. There's no need for these games. Just tell me, what do you really want" Lu Hanchuan was getting increasingly impatient.

Qi Ya didn't expect to be seen through so easily, her expression was a bit embarrassed.

She knew no matter what she said now, people wouldn't believe her, nor would they sympathize with her.

So she came up with a plan, using tears to tell him that she knew she had made mistakes in the past and hoped for his forgiveness.

He thought she would be swayed by him, but now she realizes how wrong she was. He's even more heartless than she imagined.

"Alright, I'll say it." Qi Ya had stopped hoping to move this man with her tears. After taking a breath, she spoke: "Hanchuan, I know I'm doomed, I won't live long. But my Su Su is still outside. All I ask of you, all I can ask, is that you take care of her for me. Please, Hanchuan, only you can help me with this."

"Su Su" Lu Hanchuan's eyes darkened slightly.

Qi Ya nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Su Su, Hanchuan, you must promise me. Su Su has been your daughter for six years. Even if she is not your biological daughter, you two still have a father-daughter bond. I can't find anyone else to help me, only you."

Lu Hanchuan remained silent.

Qi Ya was getting desperate, "Hanchuan, do you not even want to help with such a small favor After all, Su Su has called you father once! Hanchuan, please... I beg you..."

As she spoke, she knelt down.

Lu Hanchuan could tell she was truly begging him.

He suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

He always thought this woman only had interests and power in her eyes, without compassion or humanity.

However, reality now tells him that she still exists.

"So, you still care about Susie" Lu Hanchuan said.

Qi Ya nodded. "She is my daughter, of course I care about her."

"During the time you were running away, have you ever asked about Su Su's situation or even considered taking her with you" Lu Hanchuan said sarcastically.

Qi Ya lowered her head, "I can't. I don't want Su Su to have to hide with me all the time, so I can only ignore what's happening to her. Because I know you won't tell me."

"Really..." Lu Hanchuan lowered his eyes.

Qi Ya was about to say something more when a prison guard suddenly walked up behind her with his baton, “Alright, time’s up. You can’t say any more.”

The guard stepped forward, wanting to take the microphone.

Qi Ya clenched the phone tightly, anxiously shouting, "Han Chuan, I beg you, Su Su begs you..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Qi Ya was forcefully escorted out of the meeting room by a prison guard.

Lu Hanchuan was a little confused.

Qi Ya isn't going to meet Fu Xiaoyao anymore

Why am I being taken away

"Director Lu, you can go now!" Officer Tang reminded.

Lu Hanchuan put down the phone and voiced his question out loud.

Officer Tang explained, "The thing is, Qi Ya wants to talk to Miss Shi face-to-face, not through glass."

"I understand." Lu Hanchuan nodded, indicating that he understood, and then followed him out of the meeting room.

Outside, Fu Xiaoyao saw him come out and stood up from the chair.

Just as she was about to ask Wei Ya what Tang Officer had said to her, Tang Officer motioned for her to follow him.

She had no choice but to suppress her curiosity for now and follow Officer Tang inside.

As soon as Fu Xiaoyao entered a room, she saw Qi Ya being escorted to a chair by a prison guard.

Qi Ya's eyes immediately flashed with intense hatred when she saw her.

Seeing such Qi Ya, Fu Xiaoyao was speechless.

Even at death's door, they still have the energy to hate her. It's truly pathetic and laughable.

"You see what I want to say" Fu Xiaoyao walked over and sat down in the chair opposite Qi Ya.

She wasn't afraid that Qi Ya would jump up and hurt her, the jailer was still behind Qi Ya.

"Fu Xiaoyao, do you know how much I regret it now" Qi Ya looked at Fu Xiaoyao with a sinister gaze.

Fu Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow, "Regret what"

“I regret not killing you when you were at your weakest. When I first returned to the country, my body was still weak. At that time, most of Hanchuan's heart was still with me. Well, that's when I should have plotted to kill you. If you died, Hanchuan wouldn't care because he didn't love you back then.” Qi Ya said with a ferocious expression.

Then he was warned with a nightstick by a prison guard.

Fu Xiaoyao was still angry, but looking at her like this, she suddenly didn't feel angry anymore, and even felt a little funny. "Is that so But now you regret it, it's too late. The one who is going to die is you."

"Yes, now the one who is going to die is me, but do you think you've won this way" Qi Ya smiled coldly.

Looking at her smile, Fu Xiaoyao felt something was wrong. An uneasiness arose in her heart, "What do you mean"

Qi Ya's laughter amplified, her whole being resembling a lunatic as she laughed in a way that sent chills down your spine.

Fu Xiaoyao, I'm telling you, you can't beat me. You think you won, but in my eyes, you still lost. If I die, you can't live either!""Hmm..." Fu Xiaoyao nodded and then picked up the shrimp in her bowl and took a bite.After dinner, she cleared the dishes, changed her clothes, and went out with Lu Hanchuan.When Shao Sini arrived at...
