The Underground Emperor: Starting from Running Away with Sister-in-law

An inaudible murmur sounded...

"A pure world..."

......

Chapter 308: Meeting with an Old Friend

Wu Xiuyan has the most say in whether this world is pure.

Nearly five years of her life were spent in darkness.

And pushed her into the darkness...

Precisely the ones who are supposed to symbolize light.

During those long dark days...

She went through unimaginable pain and suffering.

Fortunately...

She made it through!

later...

She also met many people who were supposed to symbolize light.

Unfortunately, she saw only darkness in these people.

Their hypocrisy, selfishness and cruelty made Wu Xiuyan deeply understand that this world is not black and white, but a chaos.

after that...

She met Ding Xin, a person who should have symbolized darkness, but it was this person who brought her light...

Let her life gradually become busy and peaceful...

She loved this feeling.

She can temporarily forget the pain and worries of the past, and temporarily stop worrying about the future.

She just needs to live in the present and enjoy this hard-earned peace.

However...

An invitation from an old friend broke her peace...

...

Inside the VIP visiting room of Xingzhou Prison.

Wu Xiuyan stood in front of the French window, looking at the scenery outside, feeling extremely heavy...

There are so many thoughts in my mind.

She didn't expect that Du Yuanfeng, who had been silent for almost three years, would suddenly ask someone to find her.

We also agreed to meet here.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

She actually didn't want to come here at all.

But I have to come.

The truth is, this old man Du Yuanfeng knows too many of her secrets...

Secrets mean leverage...

Thoughts are flying.

The door of the reception room was pushed open from the outside with a click.

This strange sound also brought Wu Xiuyan back to her senses.

she knows.

It was Du Yuanfeng who had made an appointment with her.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Xiuyan adjusted her mood and put on a smile that seemed enthusiastic but was actually indifferent.

Turn around.

Facing Du Yuanfeng who walked into the reception room, he bowed slightly and said, "Long time no see, Mayor-nim!"

"Hahahaha, Wu Xiuyan, it's been a long time since we last met..."

Du Yuanfeng put his hands behind his back and slowly walked to Wu Xiuyan. He looked her up and down and said with a smile: "It's been almost three years since I last saw you. You've become more beautiful, and your eyes are more piercing..."

His voice was low and hoarse.

Although these were words of praise, they made Wu Xiuyan feel a little irritated.

But for face.

Wu Xiuyan still kept smiling: "Thank you for the compliment, President. You seem to be more energetic..."

"Really? Hahahaha..."

"..."

During the greetings.

The two sat on the sofa facing each other.

Wu Xiuyan wore light makeup and a black professional suit, which was simple and elegant.

Looks decisive and capable.

Although Du Yuanfeng was wearing prison uniform and his old body was a little hunched, he completely overwhelmed Wu Xiuyan in terms of momentum.

After sitting down, they were both silent for a while.

half an hour.

Du Yuanfeng was the first to break the deadlock. He smiled and said with emotion: "When people get old, they like to reminisce about the past. I still remember when I first met you, Xiuyan. You were so helpless and desperate at that time. You were completely different from now..."

Listening to Du Yuanfeng's words.

The smile on Wu Xiuyan's face gradually disappeared. She lowered her head, and the unbearable past that she wanted to forget but couldn't forget was once again brought back to her mind...

It was at a dinner party more than six years ago...

Wu Xiuyan was asked to undress in public.

Driven by despair and humiliation.

Wu Xiuyan, who was completely unable to restrain herself, immediately picked up the knife and stabbed it into her stomach...

but.

It was this action that brought a turning point in her life.

Wu Xiuyan clearly remembered what Du Yuanfeng said to her at the scene after her failed suicide attempt...

"Life is created by people, and it changes with the people you meet, so put down the knife, hold my hand tightly, your broken life, I will help you get it back on track..."

that moment.

Wu Xiuyan clenched the old hands tightly, she thought she had met a good person.

However, later experiences taught her.

There is no difference between a group of beasts and a group of beasts in human skin...

Until, she met Ding Xin!

but...

It is undeniable that if it weren't for those old hands, she might not have reached where she is today.

so...

Wu Xiuyan raised her head, looked into Du Yuanfeng's eyes, and smiled faintly: "Yes, if it weren't for you, the mayor, I would still be confused and lost until now..."

"Haha, there's no need to be like that. Opportunities are always there. It just depends on whether you can seize them..."

Du Yuanfeng still had a smile on his face, and said calmly: "For me, I just reached out my hands, and you held them, so you succeeded..."

Speaking of reaching out.

Du Yuanfeng's voice became slightly hoarse.

Wu Xiuyan listened quietly, her expression silent.

This is a bit like climbing up the ladder.

She knew that the old man in front of her would say something else...

"So Xiuyan, I helped you before, now can you please extend your hands and give a hand to an old man like me?"

"Metropolitan President, please tell me that we will definitely lend a helping hand as long as we can..."

After a pause, Wu Xiuyan added: "However, the president must have forgotten that I have already paid a lot to repay your kindness!"

She will never forget Du Yuanfeng's kindness, but she will also never forget the sins Du Yuanfeng inflicted on her!

Her message was clear.

You need help, yes!

I will definitely help if I can!

But you can't use the past favors to justify yourself. You've already repaid what you owed me.

To be honest, it is hard to say who will benefit more from the cooperation between the two parties!

After being with Ding Xin for a long time, she also picked up some of his bad temper.

In the past, she might not have spoken like this.

But now, she choked subconsciously.

"Of course, I know very well that this time, I just want to ask you for help as a friend..."

Du Yuanfeng said this with a smile, seemingly not caring about the harsh words coming out of Wu Xiuyan's mouth.
