"I have a senior in university. He is a very good lawyer and has a wide network of connections. He helped to find out that Uncle Qiao was just moved out of A City and was very safe. Furthermore, he knew about Uncle Qiao and was willing to defend his innocence! The case he defends has never been lost! " Liang Yin finished speaking in a single breath and her happy voice transmitted through her phone.

"Really?" Being infected by Liang Yin's emotions, Qiao Mu's voice trembled slightly.

This was the best news she had heard in the past four years!

Are you dreaming?

The plea of not guilty...

It could be proven that papa was innocent!

"Of course it's true! You'd better finish your work at the company and leave quickly. Don't let Tang Beiyao find out! When Uncle Qiao is released, all of you should just hide your identities and leave! " Liang Yin repeated her exhortation, but just as it was about to happen, she suddenly remembered. "Oh right, where are you now?"

"I …" Qiao Mu's heart sank.

It was all her fault for rushing over just to find Tang Beiyao yesterday … He threw himself into a trap. Could she still walk?

"Qiao Mu?" Liang Yin repeated, puzzled.

"I... I was just distracted! " Qiao Mu didn't dare to speak the truth, and let Liang Yin's painstaking efforts down the drain. "Don't worry, everything here is fine! I will leave A City, definitely! "

She had made up her mind!

Then, she quickly hung up the phone before Liang Yin could become suspicious.

She made a quick decision in her mind — she would immediately return to H City after finishing today's business! Tang Beiyao should not know anything about her company. As long as she could get out of this predicament, she could continue living a peaceful life and wait for papa to get out safely!

"Knock!"

Two knocks came from the door, followed by the maid's voice, "Miss Qiao, are you up yet?"

"He's here!" She took a deep breath and opened the door.

He had to get through what he had to do.

The weather was sunny and sunny.

Bright light shone in from outside, illuminating the simple layout of the dining room. The maid was setting her dishes on the table, and the others were busy.

Everything in Tang Family were as usual, so calm that it was as though she had never left them.

When Qiao Mu went over, Tang Beiyao was already there. He was dressed in a house uniform. His pure white tonal clothes gave him a somewhat indolent appearance, which made him seem a lot more gentle.

He had been looking through the data on the board, but when he heard her movements, he put down his things and patted his side in a natural manner. "Come and eat."

A low and even voice.

There was no coldness, no anger, and no intimidation. At this moment, he was like a completely different person from last night.

Qiao Mu's heart was a little stuffy. "In fact, this Tang Beiyao is even more difficult to get along with!" However, was there still a chance for them to get along well? Forget it...

"Yes." Qiao Mu answered with a low voice and quietly sat down on the seat next to him.

Breakfast on a table.

The maid had prepared a sumptuous meal with a dazzling array of Chinese and Western styles. Qiao Mu had no appetite. She randomly picked out a fried dough stick and chewed on it absent-mindedly. Her mind was thinking: How do I get out of here?

"Drink it while it's hot." While he was lost in thought, Tang Beiyao suddenly opened his mouth and handed over a cup of hot milk. "What are you thinking about?"

"... "Nope." Qiao Mu instantly snapped out of her daze, feeling guilty and afraid to look at him.

He was originally a taciturn person, and now that he was silent about everything that had happened in the past few years, he didn't even mention last night, much less anyone could guess his thoughts! Qiao Mu also hesitated for a long time before probing and asking —

"Can I go out?"
