Mr. Fu, please stop being abusive. Madam has already signed the divorce papers.

During those few seconds, Fu Zheng felt an emotion called torment, as if he was being roasted on a fire, caught in a dilemma.

She didn't care about Lin Jiamin's injury, but that didn't mean she didn't hate Fu Qingyue.

Wen Liang asked, "Fu Zheng, that time when you said you were going on a business trip but didn't get on the plane, I had an accident on the way to the hospital to see my grandma, but I finally got away with it. You said it was related to a foreign competitor, but it was Fu Qingyue who went to Philadelphia because of you, and it was Fu Qingyue who wanted to harm me, right?"

"...Yes." Fu Zheng raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, feeling sweaty.

He placed his other hand on the windowsill, tapping it unconsciously, waiting for Wen Liang's next words.

"She wants to kill me?"

Fu Zheng held his breath, "...Yes."

"Did she get sick at that time?"

"Not sure, but she was already taking medication at that time."

So, sending her to a mental hospital was a blessing in disguise.

"If it is proven that she suffers from a mental illness and was in a state of illness when she committed the crime, then does that mean she does not need to go to jail but should be admitted to a mental hospital for treatment?"

"Yes."

"Then can you guarantee that she will stay in there safely and won't run out again?"

This time, didn’t Fu Qingyue escape from the mental hospital?

"Ah Liang, I promise you that I will not let her out again. The police and the Huo family will not allow such a thing to happen... Besides, the results of the appraisal have not come out yet. It is still unknown whether she was ill when she committed the crime. No one can predict what the result will be."

It can be heard that Fu Zheng's words were sincere, but Wen Liang's heart remained calm.

She knew that although Fu Zheng's promise sounded firm, the reality was often much more complicated than imagined.

"Last time, you hid her intention to hurt me from me and sent Fu Qingyue to the mental hospital. You must have made sure that she would not come out. Fu Zheng, I don't believe your promise." Wen Liang's voice was calm, with a hint of coldness.

Fu Zheng's breath was choked.

The boomerang he had once shot now hit him right in the heart.

He had broken his promises to her many times, so she was unwilling to believe him.

If he had not been careless last time and let Fu Qingyue escape, all these things would not have happened later.

She didn't believe him, and she was right to do so.

Wen Liang hadn't heard Fu Zheng's response yet, and thought that he must be extremely conflicted by now.

"Fu Qingyue wants to kill me. I don't want to put myself in danger again and be on edge all the time. Besides, no one can guarantee Fu Qingyue's mental state. Last time, in order to harm me, she even dared to use grandma without caring about her health. What if she gets extreme and attacks An An..."

Wen Liang paused and took a deep breath. "Fu Zheng, you saved me last time. I gave you face and did not pursue her legal responsibility. I allowed you to handle it privately. But you did not seize your opportunity and let her escape, causing a disaster."

"...Yes, you are right." Fu Zheng lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly.

What Wen Liang said made perfect sense, and he couldn't refute it.

There are only illusory guarantees.

"However, the application has already been submitted and public opinion has responded enthusiastically. If we withdraw the application at this time, people will only think that we are trying to hide something." He said in a deep voice.

Wen Liang was silent for a few seconds.

She only flipped through a few pages, but she could clearly feel the surge of comments and the hatred that netizens had for Fu Zheng.

Wen Liang thought for a moment and asked, "Is someone manipulating public opinion?"

Generally speaking, many wealthy families do not like to expose their private affairs to the public and are averse to showing up in public.

Fu Zheng's identity was originally known to only a few people, but this time everything about him was exposed, even the affairs of Huo Junshan and Bai Qiuyu from decades ago were dug up.

Abnormally intense.

"Yes, I asked someone to check. The editor-in-chief Ma of the Metropolitan Morning News, who first broke the news, is a friend of Ms. Lin. The two met at an art exhibition and often went to exhibitions together."

Wen Liang raised an eyebrow, "So she was the one who broke the news? What's her purpose?"

"I guess he was dissatisfied with my application for a mental evaluation and used public opinion to put pressure on me. Huo Junshan came to me not long ago and asked me to give up the application."

"...In other words, you are now in a dilemma."

Since it was Ms. Lin who was in control, public opinion would not let Fu Zheng off just because he withdrew his application. Instead, it would only guide the topic and make netizens think that Fu Zheng withdrew his application because he felt guilty.

If the appraisal results show that Fu Qingyue was not ill when she committed the crime, Fu Qingyue will need to bear legal responsibility, which is not the case. However, if it is believed that she was ill when she committed the crime, even if this is the truth, public opinion will be led astray and it will be considered that Fu Zheng bribed officials to achieve his goals.

No matter what the identification results are, he will face questions and pressure from all sides.

"That's right."

As he spoke, Fu Zheng frowned.

He knew clearly that no matter what the result was, he would face tremendous pressure and challenges this time.

"So what are you going to do?" Wen Liang asked.

"Persist in applying and wait for the identification result."

"..."

"I'm sorry, Aliang."

Fu Zheng's voice was low and firm.

He understood Wen Liang's inner worries, but at this point, he couldn't back down at all.

"I understand. This is the best option."

There was a barely perceptible hint of sympathy in the warm voice.

Fortunately, Ms. Lin is not as crazy as Ms. Fu.

Although she had reservations about Fu Zheng's promise, she also understood his predicament.

"But..." Wen Liang said again, "Do you really think that the Huo family will not allow Fu Qingyue to escape from the mental hospital?"

Fu Zheng paused, "You mean..."

"You just said that Ms. Lin and Chairman Huo were against your application for evaluation. If Fu Qingyue was admitted to a mental hospital for treatment, it would mean that they had failed and you had succeeded. How could they be willing to accept that Fu Qingyue had not been punished?"

Fu Zheng said, "So, they will send people to help Ms. Fu escape, use Ms. Fu's illness to lead her to cause trouble, and then capture her and make her public. They will use the Internet trolls to easily stir up the anger of netizens and point the spearhead at me and the Fu family."

"Yes, that's what I'm worried about." Wen Liang said.

In fact, Ms. Fu may not be as comfortable in the mental hospital as in prison.

The Huo family is powerful and it is easy for them to place people in the mental hospital.

Fu Qingyue has a mental illness and is so extreme that she can be easily exploited by others.

Fu Zheng frowned and said, "Let's see what the appraisal results are first. I will make arrangements."

He knew very well that Wen Liang's worries were not groundless and he had to be fully prepared.

"alright."

"Aliang, thank you for reminding me."

Regardless, Aliang still stood by his side.

If she wanted to take revenge on Fu Qingyue, she could just keep silent.

Fu Zheng was deeply moved. No matter what the outcome was, with Aliang by his side, he was not fighting alone.

For Aliang and An'an, he will try his best to resolve this crisis.

"...I'm just afraid that Ms. Fu will be instigated by someone to come out and harm me."

Fu Zheng: "..."

"That's it. Don't read those comments online. They will affect your mood."

"You too, disconnect from the internet for a few days and take a good rest."
