Sun Zhengyue's brows furrowed suddenly, as if he was hit by an invisible hammer. Asking him to withdraw from the trial of Xia Yunhai was undoubtedly a direct challenge to the forces behind him. Those who pushed him to this position originally intended to let him consolidate his position and pave the way for the coming year. However, at this moment, facing this sudden change, he fell into deep hesitation. After a short silence, Sun Zhengyue's voice was unquestionable and firm: "No! This is not something I can decide alone. The trial has reached a critical moment, how can it be abandoned halfway?" The other party seemed to have expected his reaction, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Since Mr. Sun is in trouble, I can only do it for you and apply to the higher authorities to let you withdraw from the trial." Sun Zhengyue's eyelids jumped suddenly, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart. He gritted his teeth and tried to stay calm: "Don't worry, I will distinguish between public and private affairs, and will never let personal emotions affect my judgment." However, the other party's words were like a sharp knife, piercing his heart: "But your relationship with Miss Sun is really hard to convince. I'd better contact the people above now and explain the situation." After saying that, he pretended to take out his mobile phone. Sun Zhengyue's face turned livid in an instant. He knew that once the superiors knew about this, his position would be in jeopardy. "Wait!" Sun Zhengyue finally panicked, and he quickly stopped the other party's actions. After weighing the pros and cons, he compromised, "Okay, I will withdraw from the trial." Si Shenxing heard this and showed a satisfied smile on his face. He was not waiting for Sun Zhengyue's apology, but this sentence. He knew very well that Xia Zhuozhuo did not want Sun Zhaozhao's apology, but to completely eliminate the hidden dangers. He nodded slightly and winked at the people present. Everyone understood and said that they knew nothing about Sun Zhengyue's withdrawal from the trial, and they were just drinking tea and chatting together. After getting everyone's assurance, Si Shenxing raised his hand to express his gratitude: "Then I would like to thank you all on behalf of Mr. Sun." Sun Zhengyue's face became even uglier. He could no longer stay and said goodbye. Si Shenxing politely tried to keep him: "There will be a competition later. Mr. Sun, don't you want to stay and watch?" "No! I still have official business to do!" Sun Zhengyue was eager to escape from this suffocating place. Si Shenxing smiled slightly: "Okay, you go back now, and you still have time to write a note to withdraw from the trial." Sun Zhengyue's face darkened again. He couldn't even say goodbye. He dragged Sun Zhaozhao and left the future through the back door. In the car, the atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating. Sun Zhengyue stared at Sun Zhaozhao angrily: "Do you know how much trouble you have caused? How are you going to explain to the higher-ups during the trial?" As he said that, he slapped Sun Zhaozhao hard in the face. Sun Zhaozhao was beaten so hard that she turned her face away. She felt a buzzing in her head, as if countless insects were flying in front of her eyes. She subconsciously shrank her neck and cried, "I really didn't pour tea on her..." "Hehe." Sun Zhengyue sneered, "What about threatening her? Haven't you done it?" Sun Zhaozhao's breathing stagnated, and she lowered her head and said nothing. She knew she was wrong, but she didn't expect it to be so serious. Sun Zhengyue looked at her like this and was even more angry: "Do you know you're wrong now?" Sun Zhaozhao nodded: "I know I was wrong, Dad, I shouldn't threaten her with you..." "Wrong!" Sun Zhengyue interrupted her, "You didn't do this wrong!" Sun Zhaozhao was stunned and looked at Sun Zhengyue with a puzzled look. She was not wrong here, so where was she wrong? Sun Zhengyue looked at her and said angrily: "You are wrong in underestimating the enemy! You underestimated Xia Zhuozhuo too much! Although she is a girl from the countryside, she is scheming and has superb acting skills. You were tricked by her today because you underestimated her!" Sun Zhaozhao heard this and slowly clenched her palms. She really underestimated the enemy. She didn't expect that a girl from the countryside would have such deep scheming and such good acting skills. She has always thought that she is the best, but today she was outdone by a girl from the countryside. Sun Zhengyue looked at her like this and sighed: "Forget it! This is the first time you have made a mistake in so many years. Dad can forgive you, but there will definitely be no next time!" Sun Zhaozhao nodded silently. She knew that she could no longer act impulsively like today. She must learn to be patient and learn to wait for the opportunity. Only in this way can she retaliate against Xia Zhuozhuo and take back everything that belongs to her. The car slowly drove into the main road. Sun Zhaozhao considered the words and asked, "Do you really want to withdraw from this case?" Sun Zhengyue's face became even uglier when he heard this: "What else can we do? We are already at a disadvantage. If we don't withdraw in time, our losses will be greater." "Is there really no other way except to withdraw?" Sun Zhaozhao asked unwillingly. Sun Zhengyue looked at her with a firm look in his eyes: "There is no other way. Not only do I have to withdraw from the trial, but I also have to completely sever my relationship with Xia Yunhai and others. Otherwise, we will only get deeper and deeper." Sun Zhaozhao's face became even paler when he heard this. She knew that what Sun Zhengyue said was right, but did their efforts over the years just go to waste? On the other side, Xia Zhuozhuo was taken to a rest room by Huo Gang. There was no infirmary in the future, and Huo Gang asked her to turn on the faucet to rinse her scalded hands first. However, Xia Zhuozhuo refused directly: "No need to bother." Huo Gang looked at her with some concern: "How can this be possible? If you don't apply the medicine in time, your hands will blister." Xia Zhuozhuo raised her hand without any care. It was white and clean, without even a trace of redness. She looked at Huo Gang with a smile: "Look, I'm fine." Huo Gang was stunned. He clearly saw that Xia Zhuozhuo's hand was scalded by boiling water, how could it be fine? However, when he looked at Xia Zhuozhuo's hand again, he found that there was really no trace on it. He looked at Xia Zhuozhuo in surprise, as if he was looking at a monster. But Xia Zhuozhuo just smiled slightly and turned to walk into the lounge. She knew that the reason why she was able to recover so quickly was because of the mysterious ointment. The ointment not only cured her burns, but also gave her extraordinary recovery ability. She sat on the sofa in the lounge, closed her eyes and felt the coolness brought by the ointment. She knew that she could no longer be as weak and bullied as before. She must learn to protect herself and fight back. Only in this way can she survive in this world full of intrigue. At this moment, Sun Zhaozhao is still distressed by Sun Zhengyue's withdrawal from the trial. She doesn't know what to do next? She doesn't know how to take back everything that belongs to her? However, she also knows that she can't go on like this. She must cheer up and learn to be strong. Only in this way can she meet the challenges of the future.
