"Lawyer Zhang, as long as you can get me out, I'll give you whatever amount of money you want!" Yun Chutong tightly grabbed the lawyer's hand and said nervously.
The lawyer opposite showed a look of embarrassment. He pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Sorry, Miss Yun. In this case, the evidence from the other side is conclusive. You have absolutely no chance of winning."
"I don't care. I hired you with money. Since you've taken my money, you must help me. I don't care what method you use. Hurry up and get me out of here. I don't want to stay in this damned place for another day!"
There was no soft and comfortable bed, no delicious and delicate meals, and not even any skin - care products. In the few days in the detention center, several pimples had popped up on her face one after another. If it went on like this, she would be disfigured!
Hearing this, the lawyer immediately took out a bank card from his bag.
"I'm very sorry, Miss Yun. I don't plan to take this case anymore. You... Just take care of yourself."
Saying this, the lawyer got up expressionlessly and left.
The reason why he became Yun Chutong's lawyer was that he used to be a fan of Yun Chutong, the kind who liked her very much. When he saw the news that Yun Chutong was taken away by the police, he immediately rushed around to find out which police station had taken her away.
Because he didn't believe that his idol, who he had always regarded as a goddess and who had brought infinite light to his life, would do anything illegal. He firmly believed that Yun Chutong must have accidentally fallen into someone else's trap and been framed.
In the big dye - vat of the entertainment industry, such things were too common. The law firm where he was working had taken on countless such cases.
So, in order to rescue his goddess, he resolutely became Yun Chutong's defense lawyer.
However, the final facts slapped him in the face.
After getting along for several days, the filter of Yun Chutong in his heart was completely shattered. Moreover, since the evidence from the other side was so strong, not even the king of heaven could win this lawsuit.
Gradually, he had completely detached from the title of Yun Chutong's fan. By today, he had been prepared to give up Yun Chutong's case early in the morning.
Watching the lawyer's receding back, Yun Chutong panicked. She pointed at the lawyer's back and started scolding, using the most offensive words until she was taken away from the visiting room by the police.
Someone who had the same experience as her was also crying bitterly in a detention center at this moment.
Wen Minhao looked at the person in front of him, and tears welled up in his eyes immediately. Soon, his face was covered with tears and snot.
"Mom, please save me quickly. I really can't stay in this place any longer. If you don't get me out soon, I'll die here."
Through the glass, Jiang Ruanqing could also clearly see the situation of her son. When she saw the wounds on his face, she immediately burst into tears.
"My son, how did you get hurt? Did someone bully you?"
"Mom, they beat me every day. Look at my body. All these bruises were caused by them. Mom, please save me quickly. If I don't get out soon, I'll really be beaten to death by them. Please save me, Mom!"
Wen Minhao lifted his clothes to show Jiang Ruanqing the bruises and scars on his body. These injuries were all caused by the beatings in the detention center during these days.
"Xiaohao, mom has asked everyone I could find, but no one is willing to help. You bear with it for a while. I'll go home and discuss with your dad to see if there's anyone else who can help you."
"Go to the Lu family! Mom, the Lu family must be able to help me in this matter! You go to the Lu family. Aren't the Lu family and our family in - laws? You go and beg them more. They must be willing to help me." Wen Minhao roared with red eyes.
"The Lu family... It won't work, Xiaohao. That bitch Wen Sining won't agree." When mentioning Wen Sining's name, Jiang Ruanqing's voice was full of hatred.
"Wen Sining, you bitch. Just wait for me. When I get out, I won't let you off easily!" Wen Minhao's voice was also full of hatred.
If it weren't for Wen Sining, he would have been out of this damned place long ago. How could he have suffered like this! If only he could find some handle on that bitch!
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Wen Minhao's mind. He stood up excitedly.
"Mom, don't you have something that that bitch has always wanted? You use that thing to threaten that bitch! She will definitely compromise! When I get out, I'll teach that bitch a good lesson!"
Hearing this, Jiang Ruanqing's eyes also lit up.
She blamed herself for being so muddled. These days, she had been so worried about Wen Minhao's matter that she had forgotten about this.
Just then, the visiting time was up. Wen Minhao was taken back by the police. As he walked back, he shouted at Jiang Ruanqing:
"Mom, go now. I don't want to stay here for a single moment longer. Go now."
With a "creak", the big iron gate leading to the visiting room closed, and no more sound could be heard.
Jiang Ruanqing rushed home without delay. She took out an insurance policy from the secret compartment of the bedside table, took several photos of it with her mobile phone, then grabbed her bag and hurried to the Lu family.
"Madam, your aunt is here again. Do you want to see her?" Uncle Bai glanced at the person standing at the door and then turned to report to Wen Sining.
At this moment, Wen Sining was stewing health - preserving soup for the old man in the kitchen. Hearing this, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.
She had completely fallen out with Jiang Ruanqing not long ago. What did she want to do now?
Wen Sining put down the ladle, gave a faint smile and said, "I see. Grandpa needs to rest in peace. Don't let her in. We don't want to disturb Grandpa. Uncle Bai, could you please help me watch the soup in the pot? It will be ready to turn off the fire in about half an hour."
Wen Sining took off her apron and walked out of the kitchen. She casually grabbed the parasol beside her and walked towards the main gate of the Lu family mansion.
Jiang Ruanqing was standing under the sun, sweating profusely. Her makeup was all smeared. Seeing Wen Sining walking over unhurriedly from afar, she was so angry that she almost gritted her teeth.
"Wen Sining, I'm your elder. Is this how you treat your elder, making the elder wait at the gate?"
Before Wen Sining got close, she heard Jiang Ruanqing's shrill and high - pitched voice.
If you didn't know better, you'd think someone was slaughtering a pig.
"Hehe, Aunt, long time no see."
"Stop talking nonsense. Open the door for me quickly!" After standing for so long, her feet were already sore!
Wen Sining couldn't help laughing. Her look at Jiang Ruanqing was full of ridicule.
"Aunt, please open your eyes and take a good look. This is the Lu family, not the Wen family. Where on earth do you get the confidence to order people around here?"
"Wen Sining! Anyway, I'm your elder. Aren't you afraid that it will bring disgrace to the Lu family if word gets out that you let your elder stand at the gate?"
"Ha, sorry, Aunt. Grandpa is not feeling well recently and is not seeing any guests."
It meant that you came uninvited. What right did you have to shout here?
