Chapter 2216: For You, I Can Sacrifice Anything
Xia Qingyang did not expect that, at the most critical moment, Lu Qi would actually help her like this.
For the first time, she really, truly felt that she did not dote on this daughter of hers for nothing!
Xia Qingyang held Lu Qi’s hand and took big strides over.
“I’ll admit to all the charges. The assets are under Lu Qi’s name, but I am the one who transferred them over. I’ll say that she didn’t know about it. Will that do?” Xia Qingyang asked Lawyer Huang.
“Mom, what are you saying!” Lu Qi’s expression changed instantly. “Do you know what you’re saying!”
“It’s like what you said. You’re still young, but I’m already so old. I have already enjoyed my life enough, but you’re different. You’re still young, you still have a long life ahead of you. If you go to jail, your career will also be ruined,” Xia Qingyang said.
“I don’t have any career anyway.” Xia Qingyang scoffed. “So there’s nothing for me to ruin. But you’re different. If you go to jail, after you come out, besides the fact that so much time would have passed, the entertainment industry would also have new generations of celebrities and would have long forgotten about you. It will be very difficult for you to make a comeback, almost impossible. And it will be even harder for a celebrity with a bad record.
“You’re so young. I can’t let you ruin your future because of me.”
“Mom!” Lu Qi cried out and said, “I can’t let you go in and suffer.”
“Listen to me!” Xia Qingyang patted her hand and said, “I did everything for you for my whole life. Until the end, I will always still do everything for you.
“Don’t rebut me!” Xia Qingyang said resolutely. She had already made up her mind.
She stared at Lu Qi, caressing her tear-stricken face. “For you, I can sacrifice anything.”
“Auntie…” He Zhengbai said in a low voice.
Xia Qingyang did not answer him. She turned to Lawyer Huang and said, “Lawyer Huang, I will admit to all these charges. Will this work?”
“It will. It might be a little difficult, but it’s workable.” Lawyer Huang nodded and said, “As long as we arrange everything, it should be fine.”
“I’ll shoulder all the charges, so I’ll have as good as protected He Zhengbai too,” Xia Qingyang said. “I know what kind of role your He family played in this matter. This was done by the three of us.
“There are no police or judges here. It’s just us. Lawyer Huang has also signed a confidentiality agreement, so we don’t need to be scared that someone will spread the word. Let’s just talk frankly.
“Lu Qi and I, we don’t know anything. If this was just done by the two of us, it would have been impossible to do.” Xia Qingyang became very rational now. “It could only have been done because the He family helped. But just how much benefits the He family has gained from this exactly, a mere housewife like me really wouldn’t know. But I know that the He family definitely gained a lot out of this.
“After all, your family is not a charity that will help without asking for anything in return. You were all so proactive. Wasn’t it because there were many benefits to be gained from this?” Xia Qingyang said.
She said it to let He Zhengbai know that, actually, she knew about all these.
Don’t treat her like a fool!
Lu Qi gave them so much because she took it as the price she had to pay to tie He Zhengbai down.
So even if she knew, she did not say anything.
But now, since between mother and daughter, one of them had to come out to shoulder the blame, she could not possibly let He Zhengbai not give anything in return!
“Auntie…” He Zhengbai frowned slightly.
“Hear me out first.” Xia Qingyang smiled and said, “You can talk after I’m done.
“You don’t have to give an explanation about what I said just now. Nobody is a fool. Everyone knows it very well.”
