The door opened. Outside stood Xiaojie, his eyes red-rimmed, looking exceptionally wretched.
Although he always looked rather wretched, his spirit had always been resilient. This was the first time he looked so utterly broken.
After confirming there was no ambush outside, Jiang Qin whispered, "Come in and talk."
After Xiaojie entered the room, he dropped to his knees with a THUD and began kowtowing, his head hitting the floor with loud thumps.
It happened so fast that Jiang Qin didn't even have time to react.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Qin asked, frowning.
"Ma'am, I know you're a good person. I want to trade this information in exchange for you taking my sister out of the city. If you like her, my sister can even be yours!
Even if you only like her for a while, that's fine. If you can just take my sister with you for part of the way, you can do whatever you want with her on the road."
