Jiang Zongnan hasn't spoken yet.
Jiang Yao was stunned. After a moment of shock, he immediately raised his handsome face, frowned and looked at the man in front of him who had said so lightly about dropping out of school. He said in a deep voice: "Master Ye, my sister will graduate this year. Isn't it too serious for you to let her drop out of school at this time?"
Ye Wangchuan's jade-like fingers touched the Buddhist beads. The round and smooth beads had the effect of calming the mind. His black eyelashes drooped, covering the murderous aura in his eyes. His aura was very cold, and he raised his thin lips, looking easy to talk to. He asked him, "How do you want to solve this matter?"
"Xianrou was unaware of Zhu Yuanhao hiring someone to steal the USB drive..."
Like Jiang Yao and Jiang Zongnan, they both emphasized that Jiang Xianrou had no idea in advance that Zhu Yuanhao would ask Yin Wenzhi to steal Qiao Nian's USB flash drive.
He frowned, his brows furrowed, and under great pressure, he continued: "I will ask Xianrou and Nian Nian to apologize."
Jiang Yao paused again: "…regardless of whether Xianrou knows about Zhu Yuanhao's affairs or not, Xianrou must have done something wrong, and she should apologize to Nian Nian. But what you said about letting Xianrou drop out of school, Master Ye, is too serious. This matter is far from being that serious."
Bo Jingxing had been listening nearby, and when he heard this, a hint of regret flashed through his eyes.
The father and son of the Jiang family didn't think that Wang Ye came here specifically to seek their opinions, right? The more they made excuses for Jiang Xianrou, the worse Jiang Xianrou's fate would be.
Thinking of this, Bo Jingxing raised his hand and gently pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. He did not say anything to remind Jiang Yao and the others. Instead, he stood aside silently without expressing any opinions.
He has always had a good relationship with Jiang Xianrou, but Qiao Nian helped Jiusuo overcome difficulties and cured Master Cheng's insomnia.
He kept every favor in his heart.
It was reasonable for him to not stand on Qiao Nian's side, but at least he would not help Jiang Xianrou mindlessly.
Just as he expected.
After Jiang Yao finished speaking, the man's mouth curled up nonchalantly, his black eyes were full of desire, and he glanced at the excited Jiang Yao, and asked in a lazy and noble tone: "...I look easy to talk to?"
Jiang Yao's whole body stiffened, he turned his neck, and his arrogance was instantly suppressed: "I, I didn't mean that. Master Ye."
Ye Wangchuan didn't care whether he meant that or not. There was a sharp edge in his eyes, and he spoke slowly and steadily, giving people the illusion of being romantic and open-minded.
"Zhu Yuanhao will be sentenced to at least three years in prison this time. The girl who helped him steal will be punished in her file, and it is highly likely that no university will accept her in this life... Why do you think Jiang Xianrou can just apologize and be done with it?"
“…” Jiang Yao was silent.
It's not that he just wanted to apologize, but the other party's demands were too harsh. Jiang Xianrou was only one year away from graduating from college. Dropping out at this juncture would be tantamount to slapping herself in the face, and she would not be able to survive in this circle in the future.
He clenched his fists hanging at his sides, raised his head, and wanted to say several times, "Haven't we always had a good relationship with Xianrou? Why are you so cruel this time and have to kill Xianrou?"
"I've already given her a bargain by giving you two a choice." Ye Wangchuan's eyes were devoid of emotion, only boundless indifference. He said coldly, "If it weren't for her blood relationship with Qiao Nian, I would have made her a hundred times more miserable based on what she did. I'm only ruining her reputation now. If you keep bargaining with me, do you believe that there is a place for her next to Zhu Yuanhao's prison?"
