Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1611
Chapter 1611: I Want to See Her
Wen Shouyi’s voice was gentle and deep. She had learned the techniques of court debates, so she knew how to speak so that the audience would listen to her words to the greatest extent.
Qin Yaoguang, under her pacification, slowly calmed down. It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on her agitated mind, and she was gradually able to think calmly.
The time and energy she had invested in scientific experiments for so many years hadn’t gone in vain. As a scientist, her rationality quickly returned to her.
Qin Yaoguang was silent for a moment, then she nodded and said somewhat reluctantly,”… Alright, I’ll think about it again. Actually, what happened eight years ago really had nothing to do with me…”
She was still unwilling to confess. After all, she was also a well-known person and someone who cared about her reputation.
Once she confessed, it was very likely that she would be sentenced to prison. All her years of hard work would be wasted.
Old Master Qin sighed and raised his hand, then he said, “I know you’ve been wronged, but don’t worry. You’re my only daughter. If the court sentences you, I will be able to hold on for a few more days. I’ll manage the company and the hospital for you. After you come out, I’ll hand everything over to you.”
Qin Yaoguang’s eyes flashed lightly as she pursed her lips and looked at Old Master Qin.
Although she was Old Master Qin’s only daughter, for so many years, Old Master Qin had held the power of the company. He had never said that he would pass the company directly to her.
This time, it was the first time he had said this.
The Qin family had a big business, and they were not the only family members. Old Master Qin himself had three brothers. Although they were no longer alive, these brothers had many sons and grandchildren, much more than the people in their family.
These Qin family members also served in the Qin Corporation.
Qin Yaoguang’s eldest cousin was one of the important directors of the Qin Corporation.
She used to think that Old Master Qin would divide the group equally among the few families. Now, it seemed that it was not true…
Old Master Qin stomped on the ground with his walking stick and said with a frown, “Think it over carefully. Why don’t you tell Young Master He clearly while we are here? We are all family, so don’t make such an ugly scene.”
Qin Yaoguang’s eyes reddened. She lowered her head and said, “General… General He and I are divorced. How can Young Master He treat me as family?”
Old Master Qin patted her shoulder and comforted her. “Don’t think that way. Young Master He’s making such a big fuss because he’s standing up for Nianzhi. You’re Nianzhi’s biological mother. Nianzhi has such a good relationship with Young Master He. Young Master He won’t be too harsh on you.”
Qin Yaoguang pursed her lips and opened her mouth to say, “I don’t treat her as…”
“Shut up!” Old Master Qin was angry that she couldn’t live up to his expectations. “I told you long ago don’t think that just because you are Nianzhi’s biological mother, you can do whatever you want! Human hearts are made of flesh. You are her biological mother! How could she not treat you well if you had doted on her? Now that things have come to this, where everyone is estranged from you, I think you must have lost your mind from doing experiments!”
Although Qin Yaoguang was stubborn, she was already regretting it in her heart.
If she had been gentle with Nianzhi from the start, wouldn’t that silly girl have listened obediently?
But how could she bear it?
Qin Yaoguang thought about it carefully but still did not think that she had done anything wrong.
She looked down at the grey-black tiles on the ground and nodded unwillingly. “I understand. I will explain this matter to everyone. But before I go to court, I want to see Nianzhi.”
“What do you want to see Nianzhi for?” Seeing that Qin Yaoguang was still unwilling to admit her guilt, Old Master Qin immediately became alert. “Do you still think that you haven’t caused enough trouble? ! Are you really going to anger the He family and destroy the Qin family beyond redemption? !”
The corners of Qin Yaoguang’s eyes twitched. She smiled bitterly and said, “I just want to apologize to her. I won’t harass her anymore. After all, we are biological mother and daughter. Why do you have to cause pain to the family and make the enemy happy? Also, eight years ago, I shouldn’t have… done such a thing that let her father take advantage of the loophole. That’s why we have been separated for so many years.”
“That’s right.” Old Master Qin nodded in satisfaction. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes had even smoothed out. “How can mother and daughter have a long-term feud? I’ll call Young Master He to come in and plead with him for mercy.”
Qin Yaoguang nodded and stood beside Wen Shouyi. She watched Old Master Qin Open the door and invite He Zhichu in.
He Zhichu walked in with a cigarette in his hand.
He was tall, elegant, and had a straight figure. When he didn’t speak, he was as cold as a jade statue. However, when he spoke, he appeared as cold as ice in the far north.
“What’s the matter? Have you all discussed it, ?” He Zhichu flicked the ashes of the cigarette with a faint smile.
Old Master Qin choked for a moment and smiled sheepishly. “Young Master He, what are you saying? I’m trying to persuade Yaoguang to say what she has to say and stop shirking responsibility.”
He Zhichu looked at Qin Yaoguang calmly. “Is that so?”
Qin Yaoguang looked away uncomfortably and nodded. “What happened eight years ago was related to me, but it’s not what you think. I haven’t said anything because I didn’t want to drag others into it.”
“Others? You mean there are others who were involved?” He Zhichu’s gaze was focused as he stared at Qin Yaoguang. “Tell me, who exactly was it?”
Qin Yaoguang glanced at the surveillance camera and said calmly, “Do you really want to know? You have surveillance cameras here.”
“It doesn’t matter. Tell me. I will not let go of anyone involved in the case.” He Zhichu’s expression became serious.
Even Old Master Qin was nervous.
Could there be someone else?
Wen Shouyi was a lawyer, so she reminded her, “Auntie Qin, why don’t you tell me first and I’ll see if it’s legal?”
Qin Yaoguang still shook her head. “I won’t tell you now. If Young Master He insists on suing me, then I’ll have to do it in court.”
Wen Shouyi frowned. “Auntie Qin, I’m your lawyer. If you don’t tell me what you want to say in advance, what if something goes wrong in court?”
“I’ll admit it.” Qin Yaoguang curled her lips into a strange smile. “You’ll know in court.”
She did not want to talk about this topic anymore and turned to He Zhichu. “Young Master He, before I go to court, I’d like to see Nianzhi. Can you arrange it?”
“What do you want to see Nianzhi for?” He Zhichu shook his head. “I’m afraid I can’t agree to it.”
“I just want to apologize to her.” Qin Yaoguang sighed softly and rubbed her temples. “I admit that I was a little obsessed with my research career. I shouldn’t have ignored her for so long, and I shouldn’t have been so formal with her. I shouldn’t even have tried to bully her when she was looking for a job. This is all my fault. I admit my mistake. I want to apologize to her personally.”
She looked at He Zhichu with a sincere expression. “Young Master He, although Nianzhi claims that she doesn’t acknowledge me as her biological mother, she wouldn’t reject me if I took the initiative to reconcile with her, right? I know that she’s a good child who values relationships.”
Her words were full of emotion, and she appeared motheerly.
He Zhichu almost wavered, but when he thought about what had happened in the past few days, he scoffed and took a drag on his cigarette. He said, “Dean Qin is really good at changing the topic. You’re avoiding the important things and turning the attention to trivial matters.”
“Young Master He, what do you mean by this? I’ve already said that I can explain what happened eight years ago. Aren’t you satisfied?” Qin Yaoguang looked at He Zhichu in confusion. “Didn’t you make a big fuss because Nianzhi left you because of those eight years?”
He Zhichu threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and stuffed his hands into the pockets of his military pants. He said coldly, “It was only eight years ago? Dean Qin, do you have short-term memory amnesia?”
“If it was only about the incident that happened eight years ago, why would someone try to assassinate Wen Dayou and his wife?”
“If it was only eight years ago, why would there be a bizarre car accident after we arrested you and everyone in your lab? Not only did it burn all the lab staff in your lab to death, but several of our soldiers also died.”
“Dean Qin, how do you intend to repay this debt of blood?”
He Zhichu bowed slightly and almost asked Qin Yaoguang.
Qin Yaoguang subconsciously took a step back. She frowned and said, “What does that have to do with me? You mean, I sent people to assassinate Wen Dayou and his wife? I caused the car accident? Please provide evidence. If you don’t have evidence for such a serious accusation, I will sue you for slander!”
He Zhichu shrugged. “I didn’t say it was you. I was just asking a question, was it you?”
Old Master Qin, who was listening by the side, was terrified. He quickly said, “Young Master He, I feel that our Yaoguang is clearly the victim of these two things that you mentioned! Wasn’t she in the convoy when the car accident happened? Who can be blamed for something like a car crash? If it was her car that was hit, she would have died!”
“Then what about the person who tried to assassinate Wen Dayou and his wife?” He Zhichu suddenly raised his head and looked at Old Master Qin. He deliberately misled them, “That night, we invited you into the trap and caught the assassin who carried out the assassination mission. We will soon find out who sent them!”
Qin Yaoguang sneered and said disdainfully, “Fine, let them accuse me in court. I will say it only in court!”
