In fact, there was nothing to hope for.
It’s just that people always like to think about things in a positive way, passively isolate the bad things, and always hope that things in life can be perfect.
Madam Liu took a deep breath, her eyes slightly red. After a while, she hugged Wang Ge'er and looked at Wei An, trying hard to hold back her sobs and asked, "Princess, let's not beat around the bush. What exactly are you going through all this trouble for?"
Wei An was in such a hurry that she was still exhausted. Lan He felt sorry for her and couldn't help but interrupt her, "Madam, we are all smart people. Since we saved the young master and the others, we won't harm them, right? Besides, if we really had bad intentions, you and the young master wouldn't be able to stay here peacefully. Why should we bring these children here to reunite with you?"
No matter what, the things that need to be said and the conditions that need to be negotiated must be made clear first.
Wei An reached out his hand to stop Lan He. Seeing that Madam Liu looked like a puppet without a soul, he knew that she was terrified, so he deliberately let her calm down for a while before saying in a soothing voice, "Madam, don't be so nervous. If I really had bad intentions, you wouldn't be able to hide, right? I know you and your sister have a deep sisterly relationship."
Mrs. Liu moved her lips, but ultimately said nothing.
She and her sister did have a deep relationship, but she was very curious why Wei An knew that.
Wei An then laughed again: "It's just that your husband obviously doesn't think the same as you do. He obviously doesn't take your family seriously, and he doesn't even take you seriously. Otherwise, he wouldn't let them risk their lives when something happened, and use them as shields when something went wrong, don't you think?"
Mrs. Liu still did not answer. Wei An was telling the truth and she could not deny it.
But it was always painful to have the abscess in your heart punctured. She lowered her head and looked at the jade pendant hanging around her waist, waiting for Wei An to continue.
Since Wei An asked her to come and brought the children to her, and asked the children to say that the murderer was Liu Biping, he always hoped that she could do something.
Since there is no capital to resist now, the only thing we can do is to wait for others to reveal their cards and see what Wei An is planning. Besides this, what else can we do
Wei An did not disappoint her. After Madam Liu raised her head, she put down her teacup and looked at her seriously: "As his bedmate, you must know better than me what kind of person Liu Biping is. I believe you must also know whether what these children said is true. Otherwise, you would not have chosen to listen to us and run away without the guards just based on a letter and the tokens of these children."
She spoke neither hurriedly nor slowly, revealing her complete confidence, which made people unable to help but listen attentively.
Mrs. Liu hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.
She had been with Liu Biping for a long time and knew that Liu Biping was usually so patient when he wanted his subordinates to work for him. Hunters always had enough patience to wait for the prey to return.
The calmer Wei An was now, the more uneasy she felt.
Therefore, he wanted Wei An to tell him his purpose as soon as possible.
Wei An didn't say anything else and went straight to the point: "Madam Liu, let's be honest. We want to cooperate with you."
The expected showdown finally came. Mrs. Liu was not too scared. Instead, she felt a sense of relief that the dust had settled. She was silent for a while before asking, "How do we cooperate? What do we cooperate on?"
Having said that, it was time to talk about the actual things that needed to be done. Wei An did not delay any longer and said directly, "You guessed it right. I just want to cooperate with you and discuss how to get Governor Liu to step down from that position."
Although she already knew that Wei An's purpose was to deal with Liu Biping, when Wei An stated this purpose so calmly and as a matter of course, and even said it to her, the wife of the Governor, Madam Liu suddenly felt a surge of anger in her heart. She sneered and asked back: "Why?! Why do you think I will help you?!"
“Aren’t these children enough?” Wei An raised his eyebrows. He did not think there was anything wrong with Mrs. Liu’s strong reaction, nor was he disrupted. He said meaningfully, “These are four lives. Your sister went through enough pain to give birth to each of them and raise them to this day. I heard that when you were sick and bedridden and unable to get married, your sister would rather be a vegetarian for the rest of her life to keep you safe. I heard that when you couldn’t get pregnant for a long time, your sister searched everywhere for the secret recipe for having a child, even delaying her own affairs. I also heard that when your child died, your sister made a vow...”
Mrs. Liu couldn't help but shed tears. She covered her ears and didn't want to listen anymore. She was really cornered by Wei An. She shook her head in agony: "Stop talking!"
"Sisterly love is so touching." Wei An obeyed her wishes and stopped talking, just smiling: "So I don't know how you can stand by and watch your husband eat up your family members from your mother's side bit by bit. When he wanted to take advantage of your family, he must have said a lot of nice things, right? But you see, when he turned his back on you, he didn't even give you a heads up."
Wei An has always been good at observing people's words and expressions.
This was a skill she had accumulated in her previous life, and it was also the instinct of a girl who had been neglected and unloved since childhood.
All of Mrs. Liu's emotional fluctuations were in her eyes.
She knew that Mrs. Liu had actually been convinced, and she also knew that it was just a matter of finishing touches.
Mrs. Liu was hit on the spot by what she said. She clenched her fists and was at a loss for a moment. She pursed her lips and turned her head away tremblingly.
"I can't do anything." She finally wiped her tears and pursed her lips and said, "I'm just a woman in seclusion. I don't know anything, and he won't tell me."
Wei An smiled and said, "If you want to know, we will let you know."
What does this mean
Mrs. Liu suddenly turned around and stared at her, somewhat incredulous.
Although Wei An's sharpness and strength were beyond her expectations, to be honest, she really didn't take Wei An too seriously in her heart - because although Wei An was powerful, Liu Biping was not an easy character to deal with either.
As a couple for so many years, she knew very well how many tricks Liu Biping had.
In her opinion, Wei An, Shen Chen and Liu Biping were probably still too immature, and it would be difficult for them to defeat Liu Biping in a short period of time.
After all, Rongcheng has been controlled by the Liu family for so many years.
