Ji Qingwei scrambled to her feet and ran out in a panic.
The secretary tapped on her earpiece and coldly commanded, "Follow her."
The entire Muston Dukedom belonged to the Duke of Muston, leaving Ji Qingwei with nowhere to run.
After escaping, she dialed Yu Yao's number several times, her fingers trembling uncontrollably.
Finally, she managed to intercept the Yu family on the road to the airport.
"Brother Yao!" Seeing Yu Yao, she clung to him as if he were her last lifeline. Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed, "Brother Yao, please take me away. I don't need anything, just a meal to eat. The plagiarism wasn't my idea—it was my parents who made me do it. It has nothing to do with me."
Her eyes were filled with desperation, making Yu Yao feel conflicted.
Despite being warned by the old master of the Yu family, seeing Ji Qingwei kneel before him and plead like this made it difficult for him to harden his heart.
