Chapter 321 - To Retreat is to Advance
“Let’s hand her to the court and have the law judge her,” Yun Xiangxiang answered thoughtfully. “How will she be punished for committing the crimes of kidnapping and human trafficking?”
Song Mian gazed at Yun Xiangxiang quietly for a while. “If you want to, I can have her stay there for life.”
Yun Xiangxiang shook her head. “Don’t let her escape what should be her punishment, but don’t punish her for what she didn’t do.”
She wasn’t someone who would do anything to destroy the people she hated, nor would she break her principles for someone unworthy.
Abiding by the law was her principle as a human; even when she almost blacked out from starvation in her past life, she had never stolen a single rice grain.
If she couldn’t survive without breaking her code, then that meant she was useless. She wouldn’t blame anyone for that.
Once someone broke their code once, there would be a second time and a third time… Eventually, there would be no end to it.
“Alright, I’ll talk with Eric about your choice. I won’t have the Cardicra Family lessen her punishment.” Song Mian sighed.
“You are a human, not a robot. If people like you retire from the organization, there’s no way you can contact them anymore, right?” Yun Xiangxiang could understand how Ai Li felt.

If she missed them this time, it would be nigh impossible to see her friends again in this sea of people.
“When I was training, my master did always say that I’m a failure.” Ai Li was dejected.
Yun Xiangxiang put her hand on Ai Li’s shoulder. “You didn’t go off on your own; I gave you permission to do so.”
