Zhang Hao was taken aback.
"What do you want with her? Could it be that we are going to beat her up?"
Wu Jie was slightly startled.
"What do you mean? You have forgiven her?"
Zhang Hao hung his head low and said with self-pity:
"Actually, I can't entirely blame her for this, I also have a responsibility!"
"It's my lack of self-control, and I didn't heed your advice!"
"Now that things have come to this, what's the use of going after her? Make her pay compensation, or beat her up?"
"The two of us were mutually willing participants. She definitely didn't want to contract AIDS; she was just greedy for fame and fortune!"
...
Wu Jie slowed down the car and eventually just pulled over to a stop.
He lit a cigarette, then threw the cigarette and lighter to Zhang Hao.
"I ran into Xie Wanjun earlier, your sister-in-law's former chief secretary. Now she's gone underground and started running her own... operation."
Wu Jie furrowed his brow, smoking and making small talk.
