Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 858: Chapter 517-518: Two Men / Solitary Confinement_4

”Seems like you’ve risen too quickly, and don’t know who you are anymore.” Vice Chairman Yan raised an eyebrow, ”Ye Xuan, do you think the Ye Family can have the final say?”

”If Vice Chairman Yan feels that it’s appropriate to remove me, feel free, but on the condition that Ye’er shouldn’t have to bear the cost for the country like this. Release her, immediately!”

”Boss, calm down.” Ye Mo urgently tugged at Ye Xuan’s sleeve, whispering advice. It was the first time he saw the boss lose his cool. After all, anyone being tormented like this would go crazy.

In his urgency, Ye Mo asked, ”Vice Chairman Yan, do you love your wife?”

”Are you trying to tell me that Ye Xuan is in the right for being so anxious and acting this way just because Luo Ye is his fiancée and he loves her too much to maintain self-control, right?”

”Yes.” Ye Mo nodded in acknowledgment.

Vice Chairman Yan stared seriously at Ye Mo, ”Loving your wife doesn’t mean ignoring the country’s interests. If sacrificing my wife could bring great benefits to the country, I think she would be very willing to do so.”

Ye Mo straightened his chest, ”But a responsible country wouldn’t let its citizens do that.”

”Ha...” Vice Chairman Yan chuckled. ”This Miss Luo Ye sure is skilled, earlier Feng Tianzhi came and caused a scene, threatening that if I don’t change my decision, the Feng Family will go to extremes. Now, you both come to me like this. Can you young people tell me in detail what your respective relationships with Miss Luo Ye are?”

”At your current position, is it appropriate to say such things?” Ye Xuan stared expressionlessly at him. ”You think saying this would cause us to fight to the death? You’re mistaken. We are all clear about our relationships with each other and Luo Ye. The fact that we are all acting simultaneously proves one thing, which is that making Luo Ye sacrifice for the country in this way is entirely unreasonable!”

”Vice Chairman Yan, line two.”

Vice Chairman Yan’s secretary’s voice suddenly rang out.

”What is it?” Vice Chairman Yan frowned, looking towards the door.

”Minister Qin called, saying it’s urgent.” The secretary replied.

...

In the dark and damp cell, a sliver of light penetrated through the barely open slit on the window, faintly revealing the room’s contents — a small bed against the wall, a shabby little table at its head, and a small chamber pot placed at the foot of the bed, nothing else.

Luo Ye’s lips curled into a mocking smile.

Maybe wherever she went, she found the place’s problems?

Qiao Xiaowan wrongly accused her of drugging, and Officer Bai believed her. The key thing was, even Prison Director Li Jingsong believed it, and then she was locked here, with the lovely name of reflection, whenever she fully reflected, confessed, that’s when she could return to the cell.

For two lifetimes, it was her first time experiencing life in such a place, well, a new insight indeed.

In the past, she only heard people talk about how the prison was, now it seems it wasn’t all just rumors.

If it weren’t that all this was part of her plan, if she wasn’t really planning to sacrifice herself, maybe she’d truly be locked in here for a year? Or be silently and openly tormented by these people for a year?

Honestly speaking, a place like this, even in perfect health, can drive you sick, even the strong can be weakened.

”6257, it’s mealtime!”

Luo Ye stared at the lunch box shoved inside, unmoved.

”6257, do you want to be detained for an extra week? Get over here and take your meal.” The prison guard shouted.

Luo Ye turned her head aside. In her plan, staying here for a few days didn’t mean she was truly assimilating into the ranks of the prisoners, nor did she intend to swallow her anger and let them demean her!

A flashlight beam pointed at her face, and the prison guard’s voice had a tone of anger, ”6257, what do you plan to do?”

”6257!”

The prison guard was about to explode, this was the first time she saw such an audacious prisoner in the women’s prison.

”Go somewhere else.”

Without raising her head, Luo Ye knew it was Officer Bai who came over.

”Luo Ye, when you come here, you need to be aware of where you are. It doesn’t matter what you did before or whether you accomplished anything before; here, you’re just a prisoner.

Prison has its rules, following them is one kind of treatment, not following them is another. Stubbornness is of no benefit to you. Put another way, even if you starve yourself to death, no one will sympathize with you.”

Luo Ye glanced at her lightly, lips curling into a faint smile: ”Save those words for yourself.”

Indeed, her registration entry marked her as an economic criminal. After all, the real reason she came in could not be openly written down. She didn’t expect Qiao Xiaowan and others to believe the truth at the time. Who would believe such a thing when told to someone else?

Therefore, it wasn’t surprising that Officer Bai and others, having taken benefits from the Moselle Family, treated her this way. But this time, they’re likely betting the wrong stakes.

”You...” Anger surfaced in Officer Bai’s eyes, ”Seems you won’t learn until you see the coffin, if you don’t eat, so be it. Let’s see if you can manage seven days without food.”

Luo Ye let out a cheerful laugh: ”Sure, as long as you can shoulder the responsibility.”

Officer Bai’s expression shifted, revealing a smile: ”Don’t worry, on the fourth day, I’ll let you out early to return to cell 627. Guess, will you be comfortable then?”

”Seems you know exactly what they’ve done.” Luo Ye shook her head helplessly, ”Are you worthy of your job?”

”That’s none of your concern, Lady Luo, if you dare, persist.” Officer Bai said and instructed the returning prison guard, ”Xiao Liu, when delivering meals these days, if she doesn’t eat, take it away immediately, don’t bother talking to her.”
