Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Mi Taotao’s Crisis of Conscience Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Mi Taotao’s Crisis of Conscience Ye Xinyu’s heart jumped violently in her palm when she heard the noise, and she had to struggle to regain her hold on her smartphone.
Turning, Ye Xinyu yanked open the door of her office and dashed out in a hurry.
Having taken only a few steps, she saw Mi Taotao approaching with a coffee in hand.
Ye Xinyu paused and frowned, “Did you see anyone just now outside my office?”
Mi Taotao took a deep, covert breath and kept her expression unchanged as she feigned ignorance with a shake of her head, “Sister Xinyu, what’s happened? Could those people have co back?”
Seeing Mi Taotao’s genuinely puzzled look, as if nothing were amiss, Ye Xinyu took the coffee from her hand and sipped, “Nothing, I might have just been startled and beco a bit oversensitive. I need to step out for a bit; you go check on the crew and see if they need any help.”
After speaking, Ye Xinyu handed back the coffee to Mi Taotao and left straightaway.
Watching Ye Xinyu’s retreating figure, Mi Taotao exhaled a heavy sigh of relief.
How fortunate that she had decided on a whim to turn back and bring coffee to Ye Xinyu.
Otherwise, with the speed she was going, she would have been caught by Ye Xinyu in no ti, with unimaginable consequences.
Mi Taotao tossed the coffee cup away and hurriedly made her escape.
She knew that the secret she had overheard from Ye Xinyu couldn’t be kept hidden for long and would soon be uncovered.
Therefore, she had to make a run for it as quickly as possible. Otherwise, given Ye Xinyu’s current level of insanity, there was no telling when she might be silenced permanently.
But before she fled, there was one more thing she had to do…
Mi Taotao went back to her place, packed up quickly, and took a plane straight back to Jin City.
Heading straight for Jin City First Prison!
Through the thick glass, the sight of the significantly thinner Gan Xiaotian made Mi Taotao’s heart tremble involuntarily.
Despite being prepared, seeing the once radiant and enchanting Gan Xiaotian reduced to a lifeless husk, with sunken cheeks and a vacant stare, filled Mi Taotao with sorrow.
This was the fate of soone who had done dirty work for Ye Xinyu.
If she didn’t leave, her end would be even more tragic than Gan Xiaotian’s.
When she picked up the phone, the sound of Gan Xiaotian’s bitter laughter ca through, “I thought I had beco utterly useless in Ye Xinyu’s eyes and that she wouldn’t send anyone for … Is there so deal she wants to do? As long as I can get out of this door, I’ll do anything…”
It had been far too long since anyone had co to see her. Days in the prison without sunlight, constantly bullied by the head inmates, had been unbearable.
“Gan Xiaotian, are you still hoping that Ye Xinyu will co to take you out?” Mi Taotao frowned.
Gan Xiaotian scoffed, shook her head, then lifted her gaze to Mi Taotao, “If you’re not here to take out, why have you co?”
“I’m not here on behalf of Ye Xinyu this ti; I’m here personally. I want to convince you to appeal. That’s the only way you’ll leave this place.”
“Appeal? Are you joking? My parents…”
“Ye Shengli is in trouble, and Ye Xinyu is too preoccupied with her own issues to threaten your parents anymore. Go and appeal, find soone to get in touch with Shu; I believe Shu will help you.”
Gan Xiaotian looked at Mi Taotao in disbelief.
Had it been anyone else telling her this, she wouldn’t have believed them so easily.
But this was Mi Taotao, Ye Xinyu’s assistant, her confidante, and they had once been in the sa boat together.
“Why are you telling this?”
