quite helpless about this." Qi Dongming smiled wryly.To be honest, when he decided to listen to Xiaoya and do this, he hesitated for a moment. But seeing Xiaoya's increasingly gaunt face, he made up h..."Ai!" Aunt Song sighed, "No, his housekeeper said he didn't go out all day today, I couldn't even get ahold of his hair. We'll just have to wait until next time."

"It's okay, next time will be next time." Fu Xiaoyao wasn't too surprised by this result. If Tang Yi's DNA was really that easy to obtain, Lu Hanchuan wouldn't have been unable to get it so far.

"Let's not talk about that anymore, Madam. Let's eat first. I made your favorite dish." Aunt Song changed the subject.

Fu Xiaoyao patted her stomach and nodded happily, "Okay."

She was already hungry on her way back.

"Then let's go." Aunt Song got up and went to the kitchen to set the table.

Fu Xiaoyao followed after him, wanting to see if there was anything she could help with.

As a result, she didn't need to do anything, just waited to eat.

After dinner, Fu Xiaoyao was leisurely. She took her tablet to the small garden outside the villa. Lying on a beach chair basking in the sun while checking information, she enjoyed herself immensely.

But this tranquility didn't last long, being shattered by Aunt Song's angry voice.

"Mrs. ," Aunt Song came over with the phone receiver, "You have a call."

"Who is it" Fu Xiaoyao raised her head and asked in confusion.

Aunt Song passed the phone to her, "It's from the police station."

"The police station" Fu Xiaoyao questioned, taking the phone.

Aunt Song hummed softly, "It's said that Qi Dongming wants to see you."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao's small face sank. She put the phone to her ear and said, "Hello."

"Is this Ms. Fu Xiaoyao" a polite voice inquired from the other end of the phone.

>

"Hello, this is the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Do you know Mr. Qi Dongming" asked the voice on the other end.

Fu Xiaoyao didn't want to admit it, but the police had called here repeatedly, indicating they knew about her connection with Qi Dongming. There was no way to deny it, so she could only grit her teeth and answer with a hint of annoyance, "I know him."

"Okay, Mr. Qi Dongming here requests a meeting with you. Would you have time to come over"

"See me" Fu Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes. "What does he want to see me for"

"It's about an appeal. Mr. Qi Dongming had a chance to appeal while he was in prison," the person on the phone said cryptically.

But Fu Xiaoyao also understood.

Qidongming's intention is simply to obtain forgiveness from her. As long as the victim of this criminal case forgives him, Qidongming will be acquitted on appeal.

Well, that was a clever plan you had.

However, it also depends on whether she agrees.

She had finally seen Qi Dongming go to jail, how could she possibly want him to come out.

Thinking of this, Fu Xiaoyao's voice was cold as she said: "I'm sorry, I have no time and I don't want to see him. Please tell him that he should dispel those thoughts as soon as possible. I won't help him, that's all."

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for the person on the other end of the phone to say anything and hung up directly.

Aunt Song took the phone from Fu Xiaoyao's hand, "Madam, what did she say"

Fu Xiaoyao lay back on the beach chair, "Qi Dongming wants to see me and wants me to write a letter of understanding."

"What" Aunt Song exclaimed, "He actually came up with this idea"

Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips, "This is just my guess, but I can't be sure. But it's probably about right. Besides this, I really can't think of any reason why Qi Dongming would meet me."

"That must be it, madam. Please don't agree!" Song Yi hurriedly advised, afraid she might impulsively agree.

Fu Xiaoyao saw Song Yi so anxious that she couldn't help but laugh, but after laughing, her face was full of confusion again. "I definitely wouldn't agree. I just can't figure out how Qi Dongming could have an appeal opportunity He has already been sentenced, which means he is completely convicted and there is no possibility of appealing."

Although she doesn't know much about law.

But to get Qi Dongming imprisoned, she also seriously looked into this aspect of the information.

So, everything she needed to know, she already knew.

Song Yi, hearing Fu Xiaoyao's words, was also puzzled. "That's right, logically speaking, this is impossible, but... Madam, do you want to ask Mr."

Fu Xiaoyao thought about it, neither refused nor agreed. "Let's not ask for now, he's very busy, let's not bother him. Let's talk when he gets back this evening."

"Qi Dongming's side..."

Fu Xiaoyao's face turned cold. "Don't worry about it, I won't go see him anyway."

“Alright, I’ll put the phone away first.” Aunt Song took the receiver and went into the house.

Fu Xiaoyao looked at the azure sky, her heart feeling a little gloomy.

In the evening, Lu Hanchuan returned.

Before Fu Xiaoyao could figure out how to tell him about what happened during the day, Auntie Song blurted it all out.

Lu Hanchuan listened, his brow furrowed into a Sichuan character. Apparently, he was also unaware of the possibility that Qi Dongming had an opportunity to appeal.

"Hánchuān." Fù Xiǎoyáo called out to him.

Lu Hankan looked at her, "I asked Qiao Mu to go to the police station and ask around."

Saying that, he took out his phone and sent a text message.

Half an hour later, Qiao Mu's phone call came.

"Found anything" Lu Hanchuan directly turned on the loudspeaker.

Fu Xiaoyao stared intently at her phone, eager to know the reason.

Jo Mu's respectful voice rang out, "We found out. It was Qi Dongming who used his connections to donate a batch of police cars and emergency supplies to the police station, as well as five million yuan in donations for mountainous areas. That's how he got an appeal opportunity."

"So that's how it is." Fu Xiaoyao murmured.

As expected of capitalism.

Money can make the world go round.

At this moment, Fu Xiaoyao's disgust for Qi Dongming reached a new level.

She doesn't discriminate against or dislike wealthy people.

But she hated people like Qi Dongming very much.

"Did you find out who he was connected to" Lu Hanchuan's face turned cold.

He didn't expect that Qi Dongming would have such skill.

Joe shook his head apologetically, "No, but I can give the police station and the courts a chance to appeal. That man is obviously not ordinary."

Lu Hanchuan pondered for a few seconds, "I understand. Keep an eye on him, don't let that person bypass the final process and directly fish out Qi Dongming."

"Yes." Joe replied.

After the call ended, Fu Xiaoyao nervously clenched her hands, "You just said that Qi Dongming might be able to be rescued"

Lu Hanchuan pinched the bridge of his nose, "This is just my guess. Since that person has the ability to give Qi Dongming a chance to appeal, they should also have the ability to directly rescue him."

"If you really meant it, why would you let Qi Dongming appeal instead of just pulling him out" Fu Xiaoyao just thought this was ridiculous.

Lu Hanchuan poured himself a glass of water, "As I just said, follow procedure. Qi Dongming was put in by me. The person who had Qi Dongming appeal should be trying to avoid directly offending the Lu family."

After listening, Fu Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized, "You mean that person is giving face to the Lu family and didn't directly take advantage of them"

"Not bad." Lu Hanchuan nodded.

Fu Xiaoyao's little mouth opened and closed, unable to speak.

After a while, she worriedly asked, "Hanchuan, if I'm unwilling to write a letter of understanding, will that person directly fish out Qi Dongming"

"It's not impossible!" Lu Hanchuan said in a deep voice.

Fu Xiaoyao's face paled, she was a little flustered, "If that's really the case, what should we do"

"Don't worry." Lu Hanchuan held her hand. "Things haven't happened yet, all of this is speculation, maybe it won't turn out the way we think in the end."

"Really" Fu Xiaoyao smiled wryly, not comforted at all. "Hanchuan, who do you think Qi Dongming found to help him"got to know her better, he fell deeper and deeper.But Lu Hanchuan was different. To Lu Hanchuan, Qi Ya was the cleanest one, so the way Lu Hanchuan fell for Fu Xiaoyao was definitely unlike any other....
