“Mr. Zhao, can you help Qiuqiu? No matter what, Qiuqiu is still a future member of the Zhao family. She can’t be detained. She…”

Su Li quickly ran to Zhao Honghan’s side and grabbed his arm. She looked at him with a pitiful and pleading gaze, hoping that he would help Geng Qiu on account of Geng Qiu and Zhao Yuzheng.

“Why can’t she be detained? She has to take responsibility. Why couldn’t she take responsibility for her mistakes? If it weren’t for the fact that the Beijing University professor didn’t want to cause too much trouble, Geng Qiu would have to bear criminal responsibility for framing Beijing University and causing its reputation to be damaged! This punishment is already the lightest punishment for her! ”

“Mrs. Geng, if you continue to cause trouble, the police will convict you. After all, you were one of the people who called the police yesterday!”

Zhao Honghan shook off Su Li’s grip on his arm. Without even looking at Su Li, he walked to his car.

“Yeah, yesterday it was me who reported the case. Why is Geng Qiu implicated?”

Su Li got an idea from Zhao Honghan’s words. She could take the blame for Geng Qiu’s detention since she was the one who reported the incident. Why should Geng Qiu be punished?

Su Li quickly returned to the police station. She said excitedly to the police officer on duty, “I was the one who brought my daughter to the police station yesterday. Why did you arrest my daughter and not me? It was clearly my fault! I was the one who called the police. You should be arresting me, not Geng Qiu.”

The police officer looked at Su Li, who looked like a lunatic. His expression was uglyas he said sternly, “Geng Qiu was arrested because all the news about

Beijing University was published on the Internet by Geng Qiu. Moreover, Geng Qiu’s name was clearly written on the police report. If you continue to cause trouble, we will detain you!”

The police officer’s words subdued Su Li. She looked at the police officer in a daze, unable to say anything. She knew that everything was in vain. She had no way to save Geng Qiu.

“Ms. Su, we understand how you feel as a mother, but you have to bear the consequences of your mistakes. It’s not something that can be solved just by making a scene. You should go back first. When the deadline is up, we’ll inform you to come and pick up Geng Qiu!”

“Officer, she’s just a child. She doesn’t know that person is really a professor at Beijing University! She did all this because she didn’t want us to be deceived. Who knew that it would cause such an impact? Officer, we’re willing to pay the fine. We just hope that you can give her a chance to turn over a new leaf!”

Su Li was starting to play the emotional card. She hoped that her words would soften the police’s heart, but she was wrong.

“Children? Is it useful to say that she was a child if she killed someone? The matter now can’t be solved with just the word ‘child’. If you don’t leave now, let our colleagues send you away!”

The police officer’s patience was completely exhausted by the word ‘child’ that Su Li used. She could understand how a mother felt, but after hearing Su Li’s words, she finally understood why Geng Qiu would do such a thing.

Su Li, who had been chased out of the police station by the police, sat in the car and dialed Yang Jingyan’s number. She placed all her hopes on Yang Jingyan. She felt that only Yang Jingyan could persuade Wen Xin to let Geng Qiu go.

The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. Su Li said impatiently,

“Mom, save Geng Qiu. You’re the only one who can save her. If you save Geng Qiu, I promise you that I’ll bring Xingyue home and treat her well. I’ll also take care of Wen Xin. I’ll agree to everything you said before!”

Yang Jingyan sneered at Su Li’s words. “Su Li, I’m old, but I’m not stupid. I believe you once or twice, but not a third time!”

“When you begged me to persuade Wen Xin to donate her liver, you said the same thing. But when Geng Qiu recovered, how did you treat Wen Xin? Don’t tell me you want me to disappoint Wen Xin again?”

“You were raised by me, and Wenxin was also raised by me. In my place, there is no difference between the two of you. I have no right to ask Wenxin to do anything. ”

“Wenxin has already done enough. Without Wenxin, I wouldn’t have been able to live to this day. I owe Wenxin, not Wenxin owes me!”

“Su Li, take care of yourself!”

Yang Jingyan did not give Su Li a chance to speak at all. She had known about the incident at Beijing University long ago. She knew that Professor Du went to the ancient market for half a month to try and persuade Wen Xin to the university, but he could not change Wen Xin’s mind.

She had asked for the nurse’s phone number today because she was waiting for Su Li to call her. She understood Su Li’s personality. In the end, she would definitely get her to step in and suppress Wen Xin.

In the past, she had advised Wen Xin to help Su Li because she hoped Wen Xin and Tan Xingyue could have a home when she was no longer around. But now, she understood that Tan Xingyue and Wen Xin would be able to live better lives without Su Li.

Su Li sat in the car and angrily threw her phone on the steering wheel. Her life was a mess now. Even her mother, who loved her the most, was unwilling to help.

Su Li drove to the hospital and looked at Geng Shikui lying on the hospital bed. For the first time, her eyes were filled with hatred. Why did he become like this when she needed him the most?

“What’s wrong? You caused trouble outside, and now you think Geng Shikui is useless?” Geng Zewei had appeared behind Su Li at some point, his tone full of sarcasm.

Su Li composed herself, turned around, and looked at Geng Zewei.” Didn’t you want to discuss business with the Qi family? Why are you here?”

“I didn’t go. I heard that the Beijing University blacklisted Sister Geng Qiu and that other universities have also issued a statement to discourage problematic students. I specially celebrated and stood up the Qi family so that the company could save my sister from disaster.”

Geng Zewei’s handsome face had a smug smile. He worked hard every day to discuss business. Just as the business was about to succeed, he lost the deal. Not only did he fail to negotiate the order, but he also paid a lot of compensation for breaching the contract.

“What exactly do you want? Are you happy that the Geng family is gone? Don’t forget that your surname is also Geng!” Su Li couldn’t take it anymore, but she was worried about Geng Shikui’s situation. She lowered her voice and hissed at Geng Zewei.

“I don’t remember you saying that. You once said that the future of the Geng family belongs to Geng Qiu. Even if I am the son, the Geng family has nothing to do with me. Since it has nothing to do with me, what does the life and death of the Geng family have to do with me?”

Geng Zewei shrugged indifferently. He felt that his progress was too slow. He was already thinking of ways to destroy the Geng family faster.

“Geng Zewei, you’ve gone too far these days.. If you stop now and wait for your father to recover, I can promise to let bygones be bygones!”
