Chapter 735: Save My Sister
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The princ.i.p.al could feel Xi Chenxiao’s anger. He also heard about the incident from someone else, but it should be true as he went over the incident quickly in his head. He couldn’t afford to have Xi Chenxiao misunderstand this as a school problem. He must explain things clearly.
After a moment of contemplation, the princ.i.p.al said quickly, “No, no.”
“It has nothing to do with the school,”
“Su Jin was taken away by the police because she broke the fingers of the princess’ a.s.sistant at a recent piano compet.i.tion she took part in.”
“I heard that the matter could have been settled through monetary compensation but the princess pressured the police to detain Su Jin.”
!!
Xi Chenxiao’s expression turned serious. The matter was still manageable if it was someone else, but this was the princess. Things wouldn’t be easily resolved, but he couldn’t let Su Jin be detained just like that. He had to quickly get her out. She might have already suffered a lot in there.
Xi Chenxiao said as he quickly walked out of the princ.i.p.al’s office, “Xi Tian, let’s go to the presidential palace now.”
In the secret garden at the Zhang residence, Zhang De had specially applied for leave to accompany his mother. He didn’t want to tell his mother about Su Jin’s matter so as not to worry her. But after so many days, no one seemed to be able to save Su Jin. Zhang De couldn’t wait any longer.
As soon as he entered the room, he said to his mother, who was reading some doc.u.ments, “Mom, something bad has happened. Something bad has happened to Su Jin.”
“Quickly think of a way to save Su Jin.”
When Su Jin’s mother heard Zhang De’s words, her hands trembled and the doc.u.ments she was holding fell to the ground. How could something have happened? Wasn’t Su Jin already married to Xi Chenxiao? Did someone dare to touch Xi Chenxiao’s wife? Or did Xi Chenxiao not want Su Jin anymore and kicked her out?
Ignoring the doc.u.ments that fell, Su Jin’s mother said anxiously, “What?”
“Did Xi Chenxiao fail to protect Su Jin?”
“Or did he not want Su Jin anymore?”
Zhang De had run all the way here because he was so anxious. He sat beside his mother, took a sip of water, picked up the doc.u.ments on the ground and put them on the table. He felt a little regretful seeing his mother’s reaction. However, he had no other choice but to tell his mother now so she could think of a way to save Su Jin.
Zhang De replied with a terrified expression, “The princess’ a.s.sistant insulted Su Jin.”
“In a fit of anger, Su Jin broke the a.s.sistant’s fingers.
“The princess has pressured the police into detaining Su Jin.”
Su Jin’s mother sighed. What an ill-fated relationship. Su Jin had been by her side since young and had suffered so much. But she was still being treated badly. Perhaps she should have revealed Su Jin’s ident.i.ty back then. If she did, this wouldn’t have happened, and Su Jin wouldn’t have been detained.
Su Jin’s mother was silent for a moment before she said, “There’s only one way now.”
“Go and find your uncle and ask him to plead for mercy.”
Zhang De was a little confused when he heard this. He had an uncle? Why didn’t his mother mention it before? From what his mother said, his uncle must be someone powerful to be able to plead for mercy from the president. But who was his uncle? Where could he find him? Could he really save Su Jin?
Zhang De looked at his mother in confusion and asked, “I have an uncle? Who is it?”
Su Jin’s mother did not want to say anything at first as she didn’t want to trouble her brother. But at this point, only her brother could plead for Su Jin. The president would probably also let Su Jin off for her sake. Su Jin’s mother took out a piece of paper and quickly wrote a note.
She then placed it in an envelope and said to Zhang De, “Your uncle is the mayor here.”
“Give this letter to your him.”
“Please tell your uncle to give this to the president if the president isn’t willing to let Su Jin go.”
Zhang De looked at his mother in shock and was stunned for a moment. So, he did have an uncle, and a powerful one at that. If he had known this, he would have told his mother earlier. He wouldn’t have let Su Jin suffer in there. Also, from what his mother said, it seemed like both his mother and uncle knew the president.
Zhang De said in surprise, “Mom, my uncle is the mayor?”
“You know the president too?”
Su Jin’s mother nodded and looked at Zhang De with a complicated expression. If she had told that person back then, Su Jin and Zhang De would probably be living a good life now. Su Jin’s mother had always felt extremely guilty towards her two children. Even now, they still did not know who their biological father was.
When Zhang De saw his mother nod, he said admiringly, “Mom, you’re amazing.”
“I never dreamed that you are so powerful.”
