“She thought that with her family protecting her, she could be conceited and dare to do anything,” Xia Zhancheng said. “It will be good to teach her a lesson this time. I know what she did was way too much. I might as well make her behave for a few years.
“So, this time, I didn’t come to plead leniency for Xia Yixin,” Xia Zhancheng said.
“Xia Yixin did wrong, but that’s her issue. If she received her punishment, that’d also be her own problem. But just because she’ll have received her punishment, that doesn’t mean we can just do nothing. That’s why I also wanted to come and ask for Miss Shi’s forgiveness.”
Han Zhuoling thought to himself that Xia Zhancheng really knew how to adapt to the circumstances and lower his pride accordingly. He was a very decisive man.
.
He said he was washing his hands of this daughter of his and he really did, so he was just going to let Xia Yixin go to jail.

Throwing Xia Yixin into jail was no different from severing ties with this daughter of his.
He thought of how, when Han Zhuoling divorced Xia Yixin back then, Xia Zhancheng’s first reaction after he found out had been to bring Cen Mengqing along with him to the family home to admit their mistakes.
Not to plead leniency for Xia Yixin.
Every decision Xia Zhancheng made had been for the interests of his family.
As long as it threatened the Xia family’s interests, no matter who it was, it seemed as if he could desert them.
If it was Xia Yixin today, tomorrow, it would probably be Cen Mengqing.

Shi Xiaoya included, everyone knew very well why Xia Zhancheng had come to find her and ask for her forgiveness.
He was afraid that Han Zhuoling would take his anger out on his company and continue to suppress the Xia family.
Of course, Xia Zhancheng did not guess wrongly.
But Xia Zhancheng probably felt that she was more of a foolish kind soul who was easier to trick.
That after hearing Xia Zhancheng say a few nice words, she would forgive the Xia family.
And help him plead leniency with Han Zhuoling.
Shi Xiaoya smiled and nodded as she said, “Okay, I forgive you. Is everything fine now? Then I’ll go up and work first.”
Xia Zhancheng appeared delighted, but secretly, he had a feeling that Shi Xiaoya agreed a little too readily.
She did not make things difficult for them at all.
