Chapter 762 You Can’t Have It All
Chapter 762 You Can’t Have It All
Jiang Suining's words made Zhongmu completely frozen in place.
The panic and helplessness in her heart made her open her mouth several times, but she didn't know what to say.
Yes, who would be willing to marry a possessed and crazy person?
But in the current situation, she could not think of any other way except to beg Jiang Suining and others to take Yixue away.
"If, if I go to a place where no one knows..."
"Go to a place no one knows, stay away from the imperial city for the rest of your life, and hide your identity, right?" Jiang Suining took over Zhong's mother's words, "But if you do this, you and your daughter may never see each other again in your life, and you will be wandering in a foreign land, without anyone to rely on, away from your relatives and friends, can you really live a good life?"
Jiang Suining's words once again shattered the idea that had just popped up in Zhongmu's mind.
If Yixue really had to leave the imperial city and they would never see each other again in this life, she would really be worried.
"Madam Jiang, please help me think of a solution. I really don't know what to do, but I absolutely cannot watch Yi Xue continue to stay in the Zhong family."
"Mrs. Zhong, we've just said this. If you want our help, then at least tell us what happened." Jiang Suining's tone was gentle but firm, and it was obvious that this request was not negotiable.
Looking at the person in front of him like this, Jiang Suining felt a little sympathetic, but he was thinking very clearly.
Getting Zhong's mother to come as scheduled today is only the first step. If they can't get her to tell everything in person, even if they want to help Zhong Yixiu leave the Zhong family, they dare not implement any plan rashly.
After all, there are too many negative news about the Girls' Academy now. If Zhong Xingyun were to find evidence against them and accuse them of kidnapping his daughter, the Girls' Academy would probably be closed immediately.
Mother Zhong looked at Jiang Suining helplessly with pleading eyes and a conflicted expression. Seeing such a look, Wei Yao couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.
She looked at Jiang Suining, wanting to persuade him, but was stopped by Jiang Suining's eyes.
After a long silence, Zhong's mother finally spoke and told everything she knew.
"So if it is true that he drugged Zhong Yixue, she is his own daughter. How could he do such a cruel thing?"
Although she had guessed it before, Wei Yao was still very surprised and annoyed when she heard Zhong Mu say everything with her own ears.
He is not worthy of being a father if he behaves like this.
Zhong's mother sat on a stone bench, looking exhausted. She looked at Zhong Yixiu and Jiang Suining, thought for a moment, then knelt down in front of them again.
"Madam Jiang, Madam Wei, please forgive me. Although I have told you the whole story, if you want to use this to sue the master, I will never admit what I said. Especially if you want me to be a witness, it is impossible."
Although she hated the master's behavior and was greatly disappointed, she was still the mistress of the Zhong family after all. If the master fell, it would not be of any benefit to her and Yixue.
Jiang Suining said, "Madam Zhong, you can rest assured. We just want to hear the truth from you. As for what happens next, we will definitely not involve you. And what you said today will never be spread out, let alone heard by Minister Zhong."
"But if something happens to the master, we will also be implicated, so I hope you can not pursue this matter." Zhong's mother spoke subconsciously.
Wei Yao's hand, which was about to help Zhongmu, froze in mid-air, and her sympathetic gaze also froze.
Jiang Suining looked at her and said, "Madam Zhong, this may be a bit unreasonable. After all, it was Shangshu Zhong who targeted us first, so he cannot ask us not to fight back."
"Consider this as me begging you. Our Zhong family has been in trouble one after another, and now we really can't afford any more problems." Zhong's mother cried, "You are all palace ladies, especially Lady Jiang, and you married a good husband. You naturally don't understand how hard life is for us women trapped in the boudoir. Please, for the sake of being women, please show some mercy."
Jiang Suining frowned and looked at Mother Zhong's tears. "Madam Zhong, weakness and pleading are indeed weapons sometimes, but they don't always work. If you don't even follow the most basic principles, it will easily make people hate you."
Mother Zhong’s face turned pale.
"What's more, you can't expect us to help your daughter and endure your husband's calculations at the same time." Jiang Suining spoke again.
"But if something happens to the master, the Zhong family will be finished."
“But if Minister Zhong is safe and sound, then it might be your daughter who will be played with.” Wei Yao withdrew her hand completely and looked at Mother Zhong with a cold expression.
"I..." Zhong's mother lowered her head, tears still hanging on her cheeks, and she was at a loss.
Jiang Suining stretched out his hand and helped the man up again.
"Mrs. Zhong, the most we can do is not to tell you about it. As for the rest, we can't make any guarantees. If you have any grievances in your heart, you can leave now. Of course, we will keep our promise to Miss Zhong. If you need us, we are willing to help her leave the Zhong family and find a doctor to treat her properly, but that's all."
Jiang Suining helped Zhongmu stand firmly and then withdrew his hand.
"If you want to push your luck further, and do whatever it takes for your own family, and even try to make us give in, then I can only say that you have found the wrong person."
There was a complex expression on Zhong's mother's pale face, showing loss, tension and shame.
She naturally knew that her request was unreasonable, but she was in a dilemma.
On the one hand, she hated the master's behavior, but on the other hand, she had to rely on him to survive.
If something happened to the Zhong family, what would she, the mistress of the Zhong family, do?
However, no matter how conflicted she was, the only thing she was sure of was that no matter what, she could not watch her daughter continue to stay in the Zhong family and be fed that crazy drug.
"Madam Jiang, I understand. I went too far just now. Please just pretend that I never said anything. But no matter what, you must help me save Yixue."
"Okay." Jiang Suining nodded.
After discussing the general plan for the follow-up, Zhong's mother left Ningyuan.
Wei Yao stood beside Jiang Suining, "Although what Madam Zhong said just now sounds really annoying, no matter what, she does treat Zhong Yixue with a loving mother's heart."
Jiang Suining's eyes were heavy, and he spoke softly: "It is indeed the heart of a loving mother."
As for the rest, I'm afraid that is still debatable.
