Dong Ru zhu was getting impatient. "It's only a matter of a few minutes. Miss Huo, do you have any way to save Xinai?"
"Mrs. Shen, as you said, it's only a matter of a few minutes. Don't be too anxious." Huo Qingyan scooped up a small piece of tiramisu with a silver spoon and put it elegantly and gracefully into her mouth.
The fragrant taste melted in her mouth, making Huo Qingyan feel great.
"Mrs. Shen, you haven't had breakfast yet. Why don't you sit down and have breakfast first? After that, the plane will take off."
Dong Ru zhu had no choice but to sit down, feeling extremely upset. How could she have the mood to eat breakfast when Xinai couldn't eat or sleep well in custody?
Huo Qingyan ignored Dong Ru zhu's unhappy expression and continued to eat her breakfast.
Dong Ru zhu was sitting on pins and needles, constantly checking the time. There were still twelve minutes before the plane took off at eight o'clock.
Time passed slowly, every minute and every second felt like an eternity to Dong Ru zhu.
Huo Qingyan seemed to be completely indifferent, but only she knew how nervous she was at the moment. She was even more nervous than Dong Ru zhu.
Shen Xingkong had to marry Song Yunfei.
Why was it that they were both human beings, but she had to go through so much hardship to get what she wanted, while Shen Xingkong had it all from birth? Even if her identity was taken away, she could still win the favor of Huo Siye and become someone special in his heart.
Why?
Why could she have so much beauty and goodness?
Let Song Yunfei take her to hell.
Let her see how terrifying hell can be.
As time passed by, it finally reached eight o'clock.
Dong Ru zhu was ecstatic, "Miss Huo, it's eight o'clock, the plane is taking off!"
Huo Qingyan put down the small silver spoon in her hand, her lips slightly raised, feeling a sense of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted. "It's taking off."
"Yes, it's taking off. Now you can tell me how to save Xinai."
Huo Qingyan raised her eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly lifted with a meaningful smile. "Mrs. Shen, why did you want your daughter to become the heiress of the Shen family?"
"What are you talking about?" Dong Ru zhu's face changed.
"Because the heiress of the Shen family has the aura of the Liang family, as the only surviving bloodline of President Liang, his granddaughter will be under the protection of President Liang for her entire life."
"I don't understand what you're talking about." Dong Ru zhu was extremely anxious, and she didn't even dare to look at Huo Qingyan. How did she know this secret?
"I once said that if you want me to help you, you must have something that can force you to force Shen Xingkong to marry Song yunfei even if you have to die. This secret is your leverage."
Dong Ru zhu's palms were sweating. "How did you know?"
"You don't need to worry about that. I know everything. It's because I know that I believe in you." Huo Qingyan smiled lightly. "Have you heard of the President's pardon?"
"The President's pardon?" Dong Ru zhu was a little confused, but a few seconds later, her eyes suddenly lit up with excitement. "Yes! As the only bloodline of President Liang, Xinai has the right to enjoy the President's pardon! How could I forget such an important thing?"
The so-called President's pardon is a law enacted by the President since the founding of Jingguo. Once obtained, regardless of what kind of crime a direct relative of the pardon holder commits, even if it is an unforgivable crime, they can be unconditionally released.
However, not all presidents are eligible for presidential pardons.
To obtain a presidential pardon, it is necessary to pass a vote by members of the National Assembly and the public, with both votes exceeding 80% approval. Since the founding of Jingguo, only President Liang has received a pardon.
In short, Shen Xinai is eligible for this pardon.
Dong Ru zhu was extremely excited, "I am so stupid. How could I forget such an important thing? Presidential pardon... I will go find the president now and have him sign the document to execute the presidential pardon. This is great, my Xinai is saved, my Xinai is saved."
Watching Dong Ru zhu's excitement, Huo Qingyan just smiled faintly.
No one knows what kind of conspiracy she is hiding behind that smile.
Dong Ru zhu left eagerly and went straight to the presidential palace.
As the granddaughter-in-law of former President Liang, she met with the current president, President Pei.
President Pei was the favorite student of former President Liang and held him in high regard.
After listening to Dong Ru zhu's words, he signed the document to execute the presidential pardon without any hesitation.
"Thank you, thank you so much."
President Pei pondered for a moment and said with great emphasis, "Mrs. Shen, President Liang loved the people like his own children and upheld justice. He was the best president, bar none."
Dong Ru zhu was so excited holding the execution document that she didn't even think about the meaning behind President Pei's words and just nodded repeatedly.
President Pei was very dissatisfied with her attitude and continued, "His granddaughter-in-law should be kind and upright like her daughter, not like she is now, arrogant and reckless, doing drugs, killing people, and doing whatever she wants."
When Dong Ru zhu heard the words "drug use and murder," she suddenly raised her head and met President Pei's meaningful gaze.
"As her stepmother, you should educate her well and tell her not to embarrass her grandfather and biological mother," President Pei said.
Dong Ru zhu was angered by this. What did he mean by "educate her well"? Did she not educate her well?
Xinai became like this because she was framed!
"Your Excellency, Xinai is kind and upright. She is not arrogant or drug-addicted, and she is a good child," Dong Ru zhu said.
President Pei shook his head helplessly upon hearing this.
With a stepmother who praises her like this, it's no wonder that Liang's granddaughter has gone astray.
What a pity.
President Pei sighed heavily, "The presidential pardon is only available once, and I hope Mrs. Shen will treasure it."
His intuition told him that it wouldn't be long before Dong Ru zhu came back to beg for a presidential pardon.
Dong Ru zhu smiled indifferently, "Xinai is a good child. As long as others don't bully her, she won't bully others."
President Pei shook his head helplessly. He had done his duty to Liang's grandfather.
"If you have nothing else, I'll leave now." Dong Ru zhu didn't want to waste a second. She was eager to go to the detention center to get Xinai out.
Without waiting for President Pei to say anything else, Dong Ru zhu turned and left.
Watching Dong Ru zhu's departing figure, President Pei sighed heavily once again.
President Liang may not rest in peace.
Dong Ru zhu quickly delivered the documents to the police station, and after verification, they released Shen Xinai.
Even though they didn't want to let a drug dealer and user who even forced someone to jump off a building go so easily, no one could violate the presidential pardon.
What's more, it was President Liang's pardon.
