Regaining freedom, she felt that the air she breathed was so refreshing.
Even her spirits seemed to have lifted.
Wen Zhaoning looked at her dispirited appearance and patted her on the head, "Qinghuan, promise me, after this lesson, you'll change your ways and not repeat your mistakes."
Even though she wanted to protect her, it was difficult to do so with Zhou Mutian.
Zhou Mutian always favored Mu Jingxi.
Lai Qinghuan clashing with Mu Jingxi wouldn't do her any good at all.
After consoling Lai Qinghuan, Wen Zhaoning didn't linger. She had just returned to the Presidential Residence when she received a call from Zhou Mutian.
"Mu Ting?"
"I heard you released Lai Qinghuan?" The man's voice was low, impossible to discern his emotions.
Wen Zhaoning pressed her hand against her forehead; what had to come still came.
"Mu Ting, can we discuss this matter when you return?"
"There's no need."
Zhou Mutian's words immediately plunged Wen Zhaoning into hell.
