245 Flowing water

When Dai Jia spoke, her hands clutched the hem of her clothes tightly as she waited for Jiang SE’s answer.

“Yes.”

Nie Dan’s actions were Swift. Dai Jia should have received the news by now.

Her lips moved, and tears welled up in her eyes. However, she did not want to cry in front of Jiang se. She turned her face away. After a while, she rubbed her face with both hands and sat down opposite Jiang se.

Even at such an emotional moment, she did not place her hands on the table. Instead, she placed them on her thighs.

Her lips were white and dry. Some parts of her face had cracked because she had rubbed it earlier, and red blood was oozing out.

“Thank you,” she said.

“You don’t have to thank me for being so quick.”

Jiang SE’s gaze fell on her hand. She smiled and looked up again.

what I can do for you is limited. I’ve asked about the details, and the lawyer may defend you with legitimate self-defense. I’ve also gotten the video of Zhang Hua trying to defame you, so there’s a high chance that the case will be overturned.

She told the truth without hiding anything from Dai Jia.

“This is all I can do for you. You have to do the rest yourself.”

Back then, Dai Jia had given her a chance to join the ” pretense to reality ” crew. Now, Jiang se was giving her a chance to escape. As for what would happen to Dai Jia in the future, she would have to make her own decisions.

“I understand.”

Dai Jia bit her lip and heaved a sigh of relief. She then smiled with relief.

“I’m relieved to hear you say that.” She was afraid that Jiang se was just playing with her. Every day here was a torture for her. She had been here for so long, but she had been gritting her teeth. She had only managed to hold on until now because of her unwillingness to admit defeat and her desire to leave.

Jiang se did not use flowery words to coax her. She did not promise her a bright and far-reaching future. It was just a simple sentence, but it made Dai Jia feel more at ease than any other guarantee.

She recalled the day she met Jiang se for the first time. She recalled the conversation they had during the ” pretense to reality ” wrap-up party. Back then, she had asked Jiang se why she did not ask her why she wanted to be Zhao ruoyun’s nude substitute. Jiang SE’s expression at the time did not reveal any disdain. Just like now, she looked the same as usual.

Whether it was Jiang se, who had calmly reminded her of her undershirt by the fountain at the film Academy, or Jiang se, who had remained calm when she heard that she had become a nude substitute, Dai Jia felt at ease.

When they had bumped into each other in prison that day, Jiang se had asked her why she was there. When Dai Jia had said that she had ‘killed someone’, she had actually thought that Jiang se would be shocked and that she would look distant and wary.

After the incident, when her family members came to visit her, they would cry, ask questions, and shout. That piercing sound still seemed to ring in her mind. However, Jiang se did not show any emotion. She did not distance herself from her nor was she afraid. Instead, she found out the truth and found a lawyer for her.

Dai Jia did not mention the scene in the studio again. She did not mention how she had killed Zhang Hua either. She did not even keep thanking Jiang se. After sitting down and chatting for a while, she left with the prison guard.

Jiang se spent the next few days in the prison. Occasionally, she would chat with some of the prisoners and Cao Yu. She gained a general understanding of the prison’s situation.

Some of them had just arrived, while others had already been here for many years.

To these women who had made mistakes, they all yearned to leave this place one day.

The time to get up, wash up, eat, and go to the toilet every day was fixed. In addition to the Reformation through labor, they also had to study. Everyone could see their loved ones one day a month.

Jiang se was fortunate enough to witness it once. A glass barrier separated her blood-related relatives. The relatives outside the glass wailed and cried with tears streaming down their faces. The woman in the prison, on the other hand, was expressionless. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her hands were placed on her lap. She did not dare to shout.

“You can’t cry in prison. Crying is a mistake.”

Cao Yu explained softly to Jiang se, ”

“There are many people here. Once someone starts crying, others will also want to cry and their emotions will be affected.”

Under such circumstances, many people would do extreme things.

The prison had a high workload, and they worked very late every day. Every year, the western suburbs women’s prison would distribute the workload. After the work was completed, the prisoners would be evaluated based on their performance. The best would have the opportunity to apply for a lighter sentence from the court. This was the goal that everyone worked hard for. That was why on Jiang SE’s first day at the prison, she saw many people knitting without looking up even when they heard the footsteps outside.

There was a hint of lamentation in Cao Yu’s tone. The prison forbade prisoners from placing their hands on the table. When meeting their relatives, they had to extend their hands and legs. This was also to prevent prisoners from passing on information. It was strictly prohibited in the prison.

For many prisoners, the day they met was the day they both looked forward to and feared the most. They could only watch from a distance through the glass, not even shout when they were scolded and cried by their relatives.

Those who had not seen it with their own eyes would never understand the depression.

Jiang se was sent to the women’s prison in the western suburbs for more than a month. When she was at home, she would often turn on the camera and practice her gaze at the camera to find the right feeling.

After her birthday, she called Dong Chaoping of the imperial capital Grand Theater and set a time to meet him.

In fact, apart from the time when Chang Yuhu brought her here to practice her stage play, Jiang se had not contacted Dong Chaoping. When she called, Dong Chaoping was rather surprised.

However, Jiang se was now rather well-known in the entertainment industry. In addition to Chang Yuhu’s status, Dong Chaoping set up a time to meet her in person.

“How has teacher Chang been recently? She hasn’t returned to the theater for a long time.”

Jiang se was Chang Yuhu’s acknowledged disciple. Back then, when Chang Yuhu had defended Jiang se, he had caused a huge commotion on the internet. After the incident had subsided, although there was an endless stream of news every day and most netizens had forgotten about it, Chang Yuhu’s fans still remembered it.

Because of this, Dong Chaoping was very friendly toward Jiang se. He was all smiles.

the teacher recently signed up for a photography class. He said that he was going to Nepal in mid-December to take a look.

Jiang se would visit Chang Yuhu’s house once a month. After chatting with Dong Chaoping for a while, she steered the conversation to a serious topic.

I’ve been thinking of coming back to the theater to learn from everyone’s experience. I don’t know if it’s convenient.

In fact, Dong Chaoping had already guessed that she would make this request when she called. He nodded at once.

the theater has been rehearsing three dramas recently.

He took out the file he had prepared earlier. Other than a musical, another one was a stage comedy, and the last one was “autumn Begonia “, which had a heavy tone.
