Chapter 510: Chapter 229: Song Xiaoli’s Decision (Part 3)

On Song Xiaoli’s delicate face, a hint of reluctance appeared as she comforted, "Junior, don’t be sad anymore. Although I can’t do much to help with this matter, there’s still hope. Inside, strive for a reduced sentence. I specifically asked, and the earliest you can get out is thirteen years. After thirteen years, you’ll only be in your thirties, and you can still change your fate."

Liu Yuheng was somewhat choked up. At this moment, Song Xiaoli seemed so beautiful to him. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Unfortunately, he felt he had no chance anymore.

However... he still wanted to cling to some fantasy.

"Xiaoli... would you... wait for me?"

There was a barely noticeable change in Song Xiaoli’s expression, but she quickly said, "If possible, I’ll try to wait for you to come out, Junior."

It was an ambiguous remark, but for Liu Yuheng at this time, it was equivalent to a glimmer of hope.

Even if the hope was faint.

"I will definitely... definitely try to get out quickly, so as not to keep you waiting, Senior Sister!"

"Mm, okay. By the way, don’t worry about Uncle, I’ll take good care of him."

When Song Xiaoli finished these words, Liu Yuheng was once again choked up.

"Thank you, thank you..."

He clasped his hands together, making a gesture of gratitude.

Song Xiaoli glanced at the time, "Junior, I don’t have much time here. Later, you should call Uncle more often so he won’t feel too lonely. I will also visit you when I have time."

After saying this, Song Xiaoli left, leaving behind Liu Yuheng full of hope.

At the moment she stepped out of the visiting room, Song Xiaoli’s expression changed.

"That bastard, how could he have the nerve to ask me to wait for him?"

"Does he expect me to wait for a decade or more?"

"Even if he gets out, what then?"

She had only been impulsive twice in her life.

Once at the Starry Escape Room, deliberately being nice to Xiang Baitao, guiding him to trouble Li Yang.

The other time was on campus when she ran into Li Yang, stood on Liu Yuheng’s side, and quietly retorted Li Yang a few times.

But back then, how could she have known Li Yang would become so strong?

Back then she also didn’t know Liu Yuheng’s family had encountered a change, thinking it was just a minor issue.

Of course, she could even brush off the jailed Liu Yuheng, so she certainly wouldn’t intentionally speak harshly to others.

The reason for her attitude toward Li Yang was simply jealousy.

She couldn’t understand why Li Yang had such a great relationship with her sister, Song Yu, and they talked about everything.

But when facing her, Li Yang always put on a cold demeanor.

Although she had interviewed Li Yang several times, they weren’t even friends.

Li Yang helped her sister open a store, bringing them money.

An escape room could open almost two hundred branches nationwide, with people lining up to play every day, raking in the cash.

She didn’t know exactly how much was earned, but Song Yu was now addressed by many as President Song.

An app just for ticket scalping and queuing could achieve hundreds of thousands of daily active users, earning it billions in market valuation.

Not to mention, Li Yang helping them make money in billions, the good fortunes of the world seemed to be falling exclusively on her sister.

Why didn’t she get a bit of it?

As a civil servant, she’s been sent to a dilapidated county, unmatched by her roommate, Gong Chenlin. When she wanted a boyfriend who could help, he ended up sentenced to twenty-five years, shattering the entire family, losing all company shares, and accumulating massive debts.

Thinking of having to resolve Liu Zhengxiong’s issue, she became annoyed.

All said, Liu Yuheng did treat her to many meals and she had a meal at the Liu Family, where they treated her with great hospitality.

Although she never accepted any gifts from Liu Yuheng, even things worth tens of yuan, she ultimately benefited.

If the Liu Family was still as powerful as before, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

But the Liu Family was completely beyond saving now, and she didn’t want any evidence of involvement left behind.

She planned to repay the meal expenses Liu Yuheng covered, and cut all ties with the Liu Family.

But... those meals weren’t cheap, totaling possibly around a hundred thousand yuan.

And she... had no money.

During university, her family would give her a few thousand, occasionally over ten thousand as a living allowance.

After graduation, expenses increased, her salary was only two thousand yuan, and her family gave even less.

So, she never managed to save money.

After thinking it over, she made a phone call home.

Half an hour later...

Her expression was gloomy, having been scolded by her family and still without money.

Finding another number, she composed herself, speaking in a light-hearted tone, "Sister, can you do me a favor? I want to borrow a hundred thousand yuan."

"Okay, I got it, thanks, Sis."

After hanging up, Song Xiaoli sighed in relief.

However, her jealousy toward Song Yu hadn’t diminished in the slightest.

A hundred thousand yuan was a colossal amount for her, but for Song Yu, it was as simple as a meal.

She directly gave her five hundred thousand!

No matter what, she wanted to sever ties with the Liu Family completely!

She went to the bank, withdrew a hundred thousand in cash, and brought it to Liu Zhengxiong’s rented house.

Liu Zhengxiong had aged a lot. A few months ago, he knew Liu Yuheng had been caught, along with the funds he had left, all confiscated.

He knew what this meant.

"Mr. Liu, regarding Junior, I hope you can take it lightly. I have already visited Junior, and he asked me to take good care of you."

As Song Xiaoli spoke, she took out to hundred thousand yuan from her bag.

Liu Zhengxiong looked at Song Xiaoli, saying nothing.

After placing the money down, Song Xiaoli said, "Please take this money for living expenses. I’ll leave you my number so you can contact me if you encounter any difficulties."

"By the way, I will also come to see you when I have time. It’s already late as I took leave today. Please take care of your health."

After leaving a note, Song Xiaoli left the place.

After stepping out of the old neighborhood gate, she immediately removed her SIM card and threw it into the sewer.

She obviously had to provide a real number.

But... the phone must have gotten lost is all.
