”Let me out first.” Qi Yue said again, but Governor Qi ignored him.

”All of you, retreat!” The Governor Qi roared at the aides beside him, and all of the people obediently guarded outside. The people supporting Qi Yue let go of his hands, and Qi Yue sat down on his own while holding onto the pillar.

”Why are you going out? Weren't you always stubborn? ”I'm not willing to lower my head and admit my mistake.” Governor Qi had never seen Qi Yue who was willing to lower his head and admit his mistakes.

”I still remember when you were young. Even though you were beaten black and blue by me, you were unwilling to tell me that I was wrong.”

The dungeon was very dark. Qi Yue could hear the voice of the Governor Qi, and could also see where the Governor Qi was standing. However, he could not see the expression on the surface of the Governor Qi's face.

”A mistake is a mistake. This time, I made a mistake. There is nothing wrong with admitting my mistake to father.” Qi Yue replied.

”Not for punishment? It should be very difficult for you to even walk, right? ”

If it was because of getting beaten up, Qi Yue would be shouting that he was wrong, and he would look down on Qi Yue.

”Father's men are very impartial.” The corner of Qi Yue's mouth curled up slightly. Originally, he had a grudge with Xiao Muzhi, but now that Xiao Muzhi had the chance, he would naturally take it. Moreover, Xiao Muzhi was no longer under Qi Yue's command.

”Humph!”

Governor Qi heard the underlying meaning of Qi Yue's words, and threw out a sentence, ”I'll give you some time to settle the matter regarding the factory.”

This meant that he had agreed to let Qi Yue leave the prison. Qi Yue coldly said, ”Many thanks, father.”

Around noon, Qi Yue reached home. Governor Qi was kind to him and sent a carriage to send him over.

It was hard for Qi Yue to get off the car. Fortunately, Lao Er saw it first, so he quickly threw down his broom and ran over to help Qi Yue.

”Second Young Master?”

Lao Er had been here for a long time, and like the others, he called Qi Yue Second Young Master.

”Let me in.”

After passing by the broom on the ground, Qi Yue felt that he was somewhat sorry for Lao Er.

Ever since Lao Er and the others arrived at the Yunmeng, they had been cleaning the courtyard. A tall and sturdy man would often sweep around with a broom, but only because the Governor Qi required extreme trust and was unwilling to have the Lao Er support Qi Yue.

”Alright.”

The Lao Er called for a few people, and everyone escorted Qi Yue to the house.

Mrs. Xue came over upon hearing the noise. Seeing Qi Yue lying on the boat with his clothes untied, with blood stains on his back, she felt extremely pained.

”What kind of heartless old man is this?”

Mrs. Xue held out a clean handkerchief, carefully cleaning Qi Yue's wounds and the blood stains on the side.

”Mother, don't worry.” Qi Yue laughed, but Mrs. Xue did not see his smile, because he could only lie on the bed.

”Of course I won't let Xiao Muzhi go! Ungrateful and unscrupulous! You think I can do this to you? ”

Mrs. Xue's expression was sinister, he wished that he could tear Xiao Muzhi into pieces.

”Just and fair.” Qi Yue had only said these four words, but in Qi Yue's eyes, Xiao Muzhi was actually a man with a different political standpoint. Other than that, Xiao Muzhi could be considered as a man with iron bones.

”Humph!” Ridiculous! Act impartially? Could it be that he had forgotten that the Qi family had helped him? I think it's the end of his days to be cruel to you. ”

This was the first time she had heard the Mrs. Xue spout such ruthless words. She was extremely serious, even Qi Yue was sweating cold sweat for Xiao Muzhi.
