Chapter 1101: A White Lie

The matter that he instigated Xie Wenjin to fabricate an affidavit was written entirely in the file. If Xie Wenjin or someone else didn’t confess, the police wouldn’t know the details based on just speculation!

It wasn’t Li Meiyao’s first time to commit a lawsuit fraud, but it was the first time that he was exposed. He couldn’t figure out why Xie Wenjin confessed so quickly. Didn’t he know what was waiting for him after he told the truth? The case of attempted rape, inflicting injury, or disability – if he were really sentenced, it would be at least five to ten years. Li Meiyao was a lawyer, so he knew very clearly. Moreover, this was based on the fact that the victim was not dead. If the victim were dead, then the sentence was different.

Initially, Li Meiyao did not take this case seriously. Shen Yuxi’s family had no background. She was just a small character! When it was time, he would have Xie Wenjin’s father give her family a lot of money, and he believed it would be solved easily.

But here, what Li Meiyao did not think of was the appearance of Yang Ming. Who was this person? What role did he play in this incident?

Li Meiyao had been in the legal profession in Song Jiang for so many years, but he had never seen this person before. However, it seemed that Yang Ming was familiar with the police, and they were too familiar with each other. Li Meiyao had a bad feeling that Yang Ming seemed to belong on the police’s side. When he thought of this, he suddenly frowned.

“Nothing is impossible. The situation has been written very clearly. You can see it yourself.” Xia Xue pointed at the case file and said, “You can read, right?”

Li Meiyao didn’t talk. He was having some cold sweats while looking at the file in front of him. The details of the case written in it even scared Li Meiyao! Isn’t this too detailed? Even the specifics of me talking to Xie Wenjin have been clearly written in it.

After reading the file of the whole case, Li Meiyao knew that he was finished. He was a lawyer, and he participated in the fraud. He could be sentenced for one or two years easily. The most critical thing was that the future of his career as a lawyer would be ruined. In the future, the opportunity to collect bribes would be gone.

However, since the matter had progressed as such, he had no other way. Anyway, he had already collected enough dirty money previously. Even if he weren’t a lawyer anymore, he certainly wouldn’t starve to death in the future.

“I have nothing to say.” Li Meiyao said faintly. He didn’t want to argue about anything. He was a lawyer, and he knew this very well. In the face of absolute evidence, any debate was meaningless.

“Then, you confirm that the matter above is true?” Xia Xue asked delightedly. She didn’t expect the evidence that Yang Ming gave her was so compelling that Li Meiyao didn’t even debate it after looking at it.

“I am not clear about the earlier course of events.” Li Meiyao naturally wanted to shirk the responsibility that he could shirk. He said, “For the latter part, it was indeed, me who taught Xie Wenjin how to say it.”

“That is to say, you helped your client falsify the confession before knowing the truth?” asked Xia Xue.

Li Meiyao nodded. This was undeniable. There was nothing to argue with. However, he wouldn’t be sentenced heavily based on this evidence.

He signed directly on the affidavit, and Xia Xue quickly concluded the interrogation. Xia Xue was really shocked! She had been a police officer for so long, but she had never encountered such smooth interrogation work.

Since this is the case, if Yang Ming is involved in every interrogation, won’t I be always successful in the future? However, Xia Xue was just thinking about it. Yang Ming wouldn’t have so much time to help her. Even if he had, it was also impossible for him to help. After all, she had to solve it herself; otherwise, it wouldn’t be good if she relied on him.

Over there, Xie Wenjin’s interrogation was smoother. With just a little intimidation, saying that Qi Zhide had already confessed and showing the same transcript to Xie Wenjin, Xie Wenjin collapsed.

Initially, he did not want to confess. He held to the principle of dragging the time as long as possible. After all, if he said it, it would be a serious matter, and he knew that he would definitely go to jail.

Therefore, Xie Wenjin initially wanted to repeat the words that Li Meiyao taught him. Who didn’t know how to repeat the same things over and over again? It was fine as long as he didn’t mention the main point!

But he didn’t expect that both Qi Zhide and Liu Zhaojun actually told it all. Before Xie Wenjin looked at the file, he thought the police were just scaring him; but when he read the case file, he was completely dumbfounded!

Isn’t this what exactly happened? And all the details are there! Xie Wenjin was so angry that he cursed, Motherf*cker, they even promised before that they won’t tell even if they die. Now, they actually spilled everything after they went into the police station for less than half an hour?

Since you guys said it, don’t think that you guys will be fine. You all are also accomplices! Thinking of this, Xie Wenjin described all of Liu Zhaojun’s evil plans, saying that the whole thing was planned by Liu Zhaojun.

The police officer, who gave the transcript to Xie Wenjin and heard his words, immediately became alert. These things were not written on the file. If what Xie Wenjin said was true, then Liu Zhaojun was also an accomplice.

Liu Zhaojun and Qi Zhide were easier to interrogate. They had less responsibility initially… At most, they were only accomplices. Seeing that Xie Wenjin had confessed, they didn’t have to keep quiet and told it all.

At this point, the somewhat complicated case, that had a lawyer involved, was easily solved even before the victim could wake up.

Of course, Yang Ming’s credit was indelible, but only Xia Xue was clear about that. Others admired Xia Xue’s ability to solve the case, but they didn’t know that this was actually provided by Yang Ming.

Xie Wenjin probably never dreamed that he was the reason that the matter was exposed. Because if his mind weren’t read by Yang Ming, the case wouldn’t be solved so quickly. He even blamed Qi Zhide and Liu Zhaojun for betraying him. That was absolutely a joke.

The case was solved extraordinarily smooth. After the case was solved, Xia Xue informed Yang Ming immediately. As for how the case was sentenced, and what sanctions would be imposed on Xie Wenjin and others, it was not in Xia Xue’s calculation.

This result was also expected by Yang Ming. He did not believe that someone’s psychological quality would be so good. Yang Ming had already written down what he did. If he didn’t admit, then it would be unbelievable. Yang Ming hadn’t met such a person yet.

From a normal point of view, a sole guess wouldn’t be so accurate, so Li Meiyao did not even suspect anything wrong with it, and pleaded guilty.

Hanging up the phone, Yang Ming sighed. Even if Xie Wenjin and the others were legally sanctioned, what’s the big deal about it? Could that be exchanged for Shen Yuxi’s health? Obviously, it couldn’t.

“Xie Wenjin has confessed that his attempted rape on Shen Yuxi had failed, and he caused her to jump off the building.” Yang Ming told the truth to Shen Yuxi’s parents sitting in the back of the car.

Although this result was a bit heavy, it was also necessary to let Shen Yuxi’s parents know. After all, this result was very gratifying for them.

Sure enough, after Yang Ming said this, Shen Yuxi’s parents suddenly showed surprised expressions. They did not expect that things would be solved so quickly.

The truth of the matter was actually similar to what they thought. A beautiful girl inexplicably jumped off the building, and her trousers had been torn away. What other reasons could there be?

Shen Yuxi’s parents were very pleased that Xie Wenjin was able to be sanctioned by law. At first, when they saw the fake smile of Li Meiyao’s lawyer, they thought that the case was hopeless. However, they did not expect that the matter would turn out great; Xie Wenjin had pleaded guilty in less than an hour.

When they returned to the hospital, Shen Yuxi had already been pushed out from the operating room, but she was still in the intensive care unit. Although she was already out of danger, she had not yet woken up.

Although Shen Yuxi was not in danger, they got very unfortunate news from the doctor. Shen Yuxi’s lumbar vertebrae were severely damaged, which may lead to lower body paralysis…

After hearing the news, Shen Yuxi’s parents’ bodies obviously trembled, but Shen Yuxi’s father was more optimistic. “It’s fine, my wife. As long as our daughter is not in life danger, it’s just paralysis. We can still serve her. It’s just right that she doesn’t have to go out for work that will attract trouble for her!”

Shen Yuxi’s mother nodded silently. Now, it could only be this way. She just didn’t know to pay Shen Yuxi’s medical expenses… The follow-up medical expenses would definitely be a lot. So, she said a little timidly, “Little Yang, did Police Officer Xia say that Xie Wenjin is going to compensate some money to Yuxi?”

“There is definitely an incidental civil compensation, but it’s not a lot. It’s probably about one hundred thousand yuan.” Yang Ming told what Xia Xue had said to Shen Yuxi’s parents.

“Then, when can it be compensated… Yuxi needs money to be hospitalized right now…” Shen Yuxi’s mother said with some concern.

“You are talking about this…” Yang Ming suddenly understood it. Originally, Yang Ming was surprised why Shen Yuxi’s mother was so concerned about compensation. Since her daughter was severely injured, what was the use of this compensation?

However, it was no surprise that her mother would react as such when he thought of Shen Yuxi’s family condition. After all, Shen Yuxi’s family was relatively poor. Shen Yuxi’s follow-up medical expenses were definitely going to be high and weren’t expenses that they could afford! When he thought of this, Yang Ming said quickly, “You don’t have to worry about money. Shen Yuxi is a foreman at the Nightless Club, so she is also a middle manager. The company will pay for her medical expenses!”

” Ah ? She was just promoted to foreman a few days ago; she isn’t officially a foreman yet. Will the company care so much?” Shen Yuxi’s mother was stunned. Apparently, she didn’t think that the Nightless Club would bear the medical bill.

Never mind that the Nightless Club was a nightclub-like company, even those multinational companies often didn’t care about the medical expenses of their employees. Moreover, Shen Yuxi had just become a foreman a few days ago. She didn’t even sign the contract yet. Would the company care about it?

“Of course, it will.” Yang Ming smiled and looked at Bao Sanli next to him.

Bao Sanli understood Yang Ming’s hint and quickly said, “These are the company’s regulations. We are a formal company. We will keep our promise, so we won’t not care about it! Auntie, Uncle, don’t worry. No matter how much Shen Yuxi has spent, we will cover all of it!”

“This…” Shen Yuxi’s mother felt that Shen Yuxi’s medical expenses really should not be paid by the Nightless Club. They were also reasonable people, and this matter had nothing to do with the Nightless Club. The incident didn’t happen in the Nightless Club, so even if Shen Yuxi’s parents filed a lawsuit, the Nightless Club wouldn’t be afraid.

However, if Bao Sanli took the initiative to bear all the medical expenses later on, then Xie Wenjin’s compensation could be used as Shen Yuxi’s nutrition fee. As such, the two old people had some cash in their hands. They could buy some supplements for Shen Yuxi.

Before, they also heard about the background of Bao Sanli. They thought that Bao Sanli was a difficult person to contact, but now it seemed that this person was more loyal than the bosses who were hypocritical philanthropists.

“Thank you, President Bao…” Shen Yuxi’s mother said, “I will bow to you…”

“Don’t…” Bao Sanli was shocked! Although Yang Ming denied his relationship with Shen Yuxi, Bao Sanli still felt that there was a problem since Yang Ming was so attentive to this matter. Otherwise, what did this have to do with Yang Ming? Why wouldn’t Yang Ming be so enthusiastic about other people’s matters?

He quickly stopped Shen Yuxi’s mother from bowing to him. Bao Sanli said, “Auntie, don’t be like this. I can’t accept it!” Although Bao Sanli wanted to say that you are Brother Yang’s mother-in-law, he dared not say that. He had no choice but to shake his head helplessly.

“Bao…” Yang Ming just wanted to instruct Bao Sanli to withdraw some money from the ATM, but suddenly he remembered that Shen Yuxi’s parents were still around, so he looked at an underling near Bao Sanli and said, “You go withdraw fifty thousand yuan for me! The password is 123456.”

As Yang Ming said this, he handed a bank card to the underling. He did not know what the underling’s name was; he just felt that the underling was familiar. However, the underling roughly knew Yang Ming’s identity. Without Bao Sanli saying anything, he quickly took Yang Ming’s bank card and went to the bank near the hospital to withdraw money.

Generally, there were several banks in the vicinity of relatively large hospitals for people to withdraw money, and the business was very hot.

Shen Yuxi’s parents didn’t feel anything wrong with Yang Ming asking the Bao Sanli’s underling to do something for him. After all, Yang Ming had said before that he was also the company’s manager.

Soon, the underling came back and handed the paper bag with fifty thousand yuan to Yang Ming. “Brother Yang, this is fifty thousand yuan.”

Yang Ming took the paper bag and nodded. “Well done.”

The underling was excited at the moment. He was happy to do things for Yang Ming initially, and now Yang Ming even said, “Well done.” Of course, he was thrilled.

“Auntie, this is fifty thousand yuan.” Yang Ming handed the paper bag in his hand to Shen Yuxi’s mother. “Although the company has already paid for medical expenses, you still need money somewhere else. Besides, Xie Wenjin’s compensation won’t be paid so soon. You should take the money first!”

Initially, Shen Yuxi’s mother was satisfied with the company covering medical expenses. When she saw Yang Ming giving her money again, she quickly refused, “This can’t be done. How can I take your money?!”

It was good that the company was willing to bear the medical expenses. At least, it was still reasonable, and Shen Yuxi’s mother wouldn’t have much psychological burden. But this was Yang Ming’s own money. How could Shen Yuxi’s mother take it?

“Yuxi is my girlfriend. Now that she has an accident, I naturally want to buy something for her.” Yang Ming smiled. “I am just busy with work, so I can only trouble you.”

Yang Ming sighed in his heart. This is considered as a white lie, right? Anyway, Shen Yuxi’s parents heard me say this when we were at the police station.

“This…” Indeed, at the police station, Shen Yuxi’s parents also heard Yang Ming’s words. She thought that Shen Yuxi had an accident, and she might even be paralyzed. Even if Yang Ming was Shen Yuxi’s boyfriend, it was unlikely that he would be the same. After all, who would find a paralyzed girl to be his girlfriend?

Seeing that Yang Ming had a good career at a young age, what kind of girl couldn’t he get? Why would he want a disabled person?

Therefore, Shen Yuxi’s mother was so surprised when Yang Ming took out fifty thousand yuan. What was even more surprising was that Yang Ming actually emphasized that Shen Yuxi was his girlfriend.

Bao Sanli secretly despised Yang Ming. D*mn, she is obviously your girlfriend, but you didn’t want to admit it. Now you finally admit it, right? However, he just despised Yang Ming in his heart. He dared not say it, and he was very glad that he had been very serious about handling this matter.

Outside the hospital, Yang Ming’s mood was a bit confusing. Although things were handled satisfactorily, a girl whose time was fleeting might have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.

After knowing this result, Yang Ming did not intend to let Xie Wenjin go. Regardless of what Xie Wenjin’s final sentence was, Yang Ming would not let him have it easy.

……………

Fang Tian got news from General Kars of Country X. He let the Black Butterfly Organization carry out the assassination of his political opponent. As long as it succeeded, any rewards could be discussed.

General Kars was really unable to sit still. He knew in his heart that at this stage of his recuperation, some political enemies were also eager to make a move.

General Kars lived in fear every day. In fact, he also knew that it was only a matter of time before he got dethroned, but everyone would take their chances to hold out as long as they could.

In his view, as long as he could pay enough rewards, he could assassinate all his political opponents, so that he could sit in the president’s position safely.

But there was no end to his political enemies. After this political enemy was assassinated, another would appear. Even if he could assassinate all of them, all the available resources in the Country X would be expended as rewards. So, what was the point of being a president who had no resources?
