Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

Something must have happened to the Lu family, otherwise, with the power of the Lu family, no one would dare to treat him like this.

Had such a thing happened in the past without her knowing?

She remembered that the boy did not go to jail in the end because he had a car accident on the day he returned to the Lu family, and since then he spent the rest of his life in the hospital.

Now the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the car accident was not an accident but a man-made one!

Yes, if it weren’t for the intervention of the powerful, no one in the empire would care about the death of a civilian.

She pretended not to understand: "It was really my fault. I didn't want this to happen, but he was not nice to me. I, I..."

At the end she was a little incoherent and her voice was choked with sobs.

After the performance, the policewoman almost believed it to 80%. In the end, she looked at Xu Meir with disappointment and left. She failed to complete the task assigned by her superior.

Xu Meir changed her previous plan. She was determined to find out the mastermind behind this incident and make that person pay the price.

Because of the Lu family's powerful status, Lu Qingheng did not go to jail. Instead, he lived in a house with a good environment near the police station, with special guards inside and outside the house.

Xu Meir was imprisoned. Due to her young age, the Empire, out of humanitarianism, locked her up in a solitary room.

Lu Qingheng was extremely anxious and was really worried about leaving the little girl alone in prison. However, no matter what he said, the police would not let him leave the room. He could not see his father. The only people he could see were the police and lawyers. His cell phone was also taken away.

The lawyer comforted the boy, saying that under the laws of the empire, minors under the age of 14 were not criminally responsible for murder. Moreover, according to the information he had received, the person the boy had killed was also guilty.

To be honest, the lawyer is confident about the upcoming lawsuit. The only thing that worries him is public opinion. However, the Lu Group has a dedicated public relations team, so it should be fine after a while.

After comforting him, the lawyer left. The people who went to Yunzhao Village to investigate would give him relevant feedback today.

The boy didn't react much to his departure. He looked at the scenery outside the window with a worried look. A thin face appeared uncontrollably in his mind. What should he do?

In the next few days, the lawyers clearly felt the pressure. Public opinion surrounding the intentional homicide committed by the heir of the Lu Group intensified, even to the point of a confrontation between nobles and commoners. In just a few days, several large-scale group fights broke out in the empire.

It gives people the impression that if Lu Qingheng is not severely punished, it would be an enemy of fairness and justice and all civilians.

The lawyer reported the impact of public opinion to Lu Yi. Lu Yi sat at his desk, his suit neatly dressed, but his irritation was hard to hide. He looked at another person standing in the office: "How is the matter in Yunzhao Village going?"

The man was tall and mighty, wearing casual clothes. He frowned when he heard this. "Not good. It seems that the villagers have been bribed by someone. Even those who may have been abducted denied the kidnapping that the housekeeper and Ajie said."

Lu Yi tightly grasped the ceramic cup on the table and tried to calm himself down: "Have you found out who bribed him?"

The man looked apologetic: "No."

"Bang!" Porcelain pieces exploded on the ground. Lu Yi gasped: "Useless! A bunch of useless! Why don't you go check it out!"

The man lowered his eyes and said quickly, "Yes."

The lawyer froze in place, wanting to leave but not daring to. After a long while, Lu Yi finally remembered him, his eyes as sharp as a knife: "My Lu Yi's child cannot have any stain, understand?"

"Yes." The lawyer felt like a huge mountain was pressing down on his head. At this point, it was no longer a legal issue, but a struggle between the powerful. What could a lawyer do? But he still gritted his teeth and agreed, secretly hoping that Lu Yi would win the final victory in this struggle.

"Knock knock knock" Not long after the lawyer left, there was a knock on the door.

"Get in here!" Lu Yi loosened his tie, looking angry and anxious.

The door was pushed open, and Lu Yi's brows relaxed a lot when he saw the person coming: "You're here."

"Yeah." The person was carrying a lunch box, wearing a goose yellow long skirt, with an elegant posture and delicate features. Even though she was treated in such a tone, she did not seem angry at all and seemed to have a very gentle temper.

"Yi," she opened the lunch box and took out a white porcelain bowl and placed it in front of Lu Yi, "This is the bird's nest I stewed. You have worked hard for Qingheng these days."

Lu Yi forced a smile: "Lian'er, thank you for your help."

Di Lian pretended to be angry: "What are you talking about? We are husband and wife, this is what we should do."

Lu Yi hugged her and said, "With a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?"

Di Lian had a beautiful smile on his face.

"By the way, Lian'er, where is your father?"

Di Lian looked embarrassed: "I asked my father about this matter, but he scolded me and told me not to get involved. However, I asked someone to find out secretly. It is said that the Minister of Finance has joined forces with the Liu family..."

Lu Yi frowned: "Qi Cheng, the Minister of Finance?" He had dealt with this person before, and thought he had never offended him in any way. Could it be that...

Di Lian said what he was thinking: "The Lu family is the first family besides the royal family, and the wealth they own is immeasurable. However, as the Minister of Finance, they have been running a fiscal deficit every year in recent years. The emperor has long been dissatisfied with him, and coupled with our marriage, it probably put a lot of pressure on him."

"He has been in the officialdom for decades. We don't know his connections and the power behind the scenes. Moreover, he took advantage of public opinion. When public opinion was not in our favor, the emperor could do nothing. After all, the emperor's first priority was to maintain his rule. However, he was biased towards you in his heart."

A trace of displeasure flashed across Lu Yi's eyes: "Can't you persuade your father again? You are his biological daughter."

Di Lian was full of apologies: "It's all because of Lian'er's uselessness that my husband has suffered."

"Forget it," Lu Yi knew in his heart that the emperor would most likely not listen to her, "You go back first, I'll come home to find you when I'm done."

"Okay," Di Lian's eyes were full of affection and expectation, "I'll wait for you."

"Yeah." Lu Yi responded in a calm voice.
