In the cafe.

After Qiao Mu entered, she saw Shu Xinyu sitting in the cubicle.

Qiao Mu looked at the other party. Shu Xinyu had taken good care of herself, and there was not a single wrinkle on her face. There was no trace of a forty-year-old on her face at all.

This seemingly glamorous woman made her feel extremely disgusted.

Regardless of whether Shu Xinyu was related to her or not, abandoning her own child for the sake of her stepdaughter and not being able to distinguish right from wrong, there was no trace of greatness in it.

Qiao Mu walked over and sat opposite Shu Xinyu. She looked at the graceful and elegant woman in front of her. Shu Xinyu’s current condition was not good, and she looked rather haggard.

Qiao Mu lowered her eyes, and then she heard Shu Xinyu say, “”Qiao Mu, just say it. How can we let Ning Tongtong live?”

Just like the last time, he questioned her with the same high and mighty attitude.

Qiao Mu curled her lips into a smile. ” Don’t you think that saying this is very laughable? Why should I let Ning Tongtong go? I didn’t frame her. She deserves what she deserves. Madam Shu, Ning Tongtong is your daughter. Just because you care about her doesn’t mean that others will care about her!”

Shu Xinyu’s expression darkened. ” Qiao Mu, don’t be too heartless. You’ve already gotten what you deserve, whether it’s the championship or a good reputation. Ning Tongtong’s reputation is almost completely ruined now, so leaving a path for others won’t do you any harm. ”

“Should I leave a path for her?” Qiao Mu gritted her teeth, and the smile on her lips turned cold. ” Now that the truth is out, you asked me to show mercy, but did Ning Tongtong think of leaving me a way out? How did Ning Tongtong treat me when I was accused of plagiarism?”

Every time, Shu Xinyu could break the world’s best stepmother record. To her, others were not worth mentioning at all. Only her daughter was the most important!

Shu Xinyu’s attitude finally softened. ” Qiao Mu, I apologize to you on behalf of Tongtong. I promise that she won’t make the same mistake again. As long as you can withdraw the lawsuit against her, I can stop Tongs from operating. Ningning is still young and can’t suffer such a blow. Please understand how I feel as a mother. ” I can’t let Ning-Ning’s reputation be ruined because of this.”

This was the first time Qiao Mu had seen the other party lower herself to such an extent. The impression Shu Xinyu gave her was that she had always been arrogant and distant. Her attitude was high and mighty, and she did not take her seriously at all.

Such a person had made such a big concession for a stepdaughter.

Qiao Mu had always looked down on people like Ning Tongtong, yet Ning Tongtong was able to maintain such a relationship with her stepmother.

She didn’t have the ability. In the end, it was because she failed.

Qiao Mu did not waver. ” Shu Xinyu, you should know very well how important copyright is in this industry, especially for a newcomer like me. Ning Tongtong still refuses to admit to plagiarism. If I withdraw the lawsuit, Ning Tongtong will be fine, but who will guarantee my reputation? ”

This was the reason why Key insisted on suing Ning Tongtong. Only when the lawsuit was successful would she be completely removed from suspicion. Otherwise, there would always be people who would think that she was framing Ning Tongtong without seeing the evidence.

She could not let her career be tainted.

After Qiao Mu finished speaking, the pleading look on Shu Xinyu’s face disappeared without a trace in an instant, and her expression sank bit by bit. ” Qiao Mu, so you want to force Tongtong to her death? ”

Qiao Mu really wanted to laugh out loud. Ning Tongtong plagiarized her work, and in the end, it was still her fault?

Shu Xinyu was ridiculously selfish. Ning Tongtong’s reputation was important, but wasn’t it important for others?
