This matter ended just like that.
After stepping out, Du Xiaoren made a phone call to Zhan Se.
The theme of the call—apology.
Of course, she wouldn't admit to being involved in this affair. After all, over the phone, she was as innocent as could be, as pitiful as one might imagine, heaping all the blame on Ai Muran. She painted herself as a pitiable little employee oppressed by superiors, earnestly hoping for Zhan Se's understanding.
Zhan Se certainly understood.
Because her issue had nothing to do with herself anymore.
She breezed over it lightly, and regarding Du Xiaoren, she couldn't muster any feelings anymore.
Zhan Se was actually a very cold-hearted girl, and not many could win her affection. But the fewer there were, the more she cherished those relationships. Therefore, she was exceptionally good to her friends, ready to give her all for those who were sincere.
For Ai Lun's sake, she would ask Emperor Quan to spare Ai Muran.
