Chapter 492 - 0492 End of Training 4_1
"What does this have to do with me?" Feng Qingxue’s cold face firmly rejected Wang Fengmei’s plea once more, her lips hinting at scorn, "Everything has a cause and an effect. Since you made the choices you did back then, you must bear the consequences today. I don’t know what happened to Comrade Zhao, after all, I’m just a countrywoman who lives in the city committee’s residence, but I do know that the discipline commission would never wrong a good person. You’d be better off waiting at home for the results of the commission’s investigation and accepting the outcomes openly."
She despised this sort of behavior where you were looked down upon until they needed you, then suddenly you were implored for assistance. Why in the first place, if they knew what would come of this? Is it not good to be virtuous and genuine in life? It’s ridiculous to expect to escape punishment without remorse once a wrongdoing has come to light.
Wang Fengmei looked up in bitterness and said, "Feng Qingxue, are you truly this heartless?"
Faced with her accusations and the gawking eyes of onlookers, Feng Qingxue harshly responded, "If seeking favors from Mayor Cheng and other city committee officials to bend the law for your desires defines me as ruthless, then so be it! Knowing that you consider me heartless, why did you come seeking my aid? Is it not just inviting your own humiliation?"
Just as Wang Fengmei was about to lunge forward, Wang Cuilan sternly said, "Wang Fengmei, if you continue creating a scene, I will have to bring the matter up with the discipline commission. Could the contents of the complaint letter be true and you’re trying to halt their ongoing investigation by desperately seeking help to save Zhao?"
At this, Wang Fengmei froze on the spot.
