Chapter 510: The Big Accident (3) The Situation Is Urgent
Chapter 510
An Nuan hung up the phone with Qin Jiang.
An Nuan also had no mind to go to work anymore.
She took a leave of absence for her father, arranged some tasks for Luo Si and Tan Yufei, and then focused all her energy on Ye Jinghuai's arrest.
She sat on the sofa.
Uncle Zhong was obviously a bit anxious as well.
Ye Jingjing had just come downstairs, not knowing whether An Nuan had plotted against her or something in the past few days, she had behaved herself, and sometimes even deliberately avoided being home when An Nuan was there. Now seeing An Nuan still at home, she was clearly displeased.
She said, "Why haven't you gone to work yet? Isn't my brother leaving today?"
Her tone was somewhat sarcastic.
She meant that since her brother had left, An Nuan staying at home would only add to her troubles.
An Nuan glared at Ye Jingjing.
Uncle Zhong could no longer hold himself back at this moment, as he truly felt that Ye Jingjing should not cause any more trouble at this time. He directly said, "The young master has been taken away by the people from the prosecutors' office, they said it was for corruption."
"What?!" Ye Jingjing's expression changed instantly.
Sensing the solemn atmosphere in the house, she also knew she could no longer lie.
She exclaimed excitedly, "My brother doesn't lack money, why would he take bribes? He's so wealthy, does he need to be corrupt?"
An Nuan did not want to engage with Ye Jingjing.
Although she had been trying to stay calm, just thinking about the scene of Ye Jinghuai being taken away, she could not truly remain composed.
She did not dare to assert how far this incident would escalate.
Even knowing that Ye Jinghuai was so wealthy, they still used the crime of corruption to frame him, she really felt that it would not be that simple.
An Nuan's expression was grave.
Ye Jingjing had never seen An Nuan like this before, and her confidence was greatly diminished. At that moment, she did not dare to provoke An Nuan anymore.
She felt that only An Nuan could handle this situation.
And she did not dare to cause any more trouble.
She just seemed a bit lost, clearly uneasy in the house.
If something really happened to her brother... she wouldn't want to live anymore.
Thinking this way, her eyes reddened.
Uncle Zhong was ultimately softer-hearted, although he was also very worried about the young master's situation, seeing that Ye Jingjing had just gotten out of bed and had not eaten, her eyes now reddened, he quickly got up from the sofa, "Young lady, let me make you breakfast."
"I can't eat."
"Even if you can't eat, you still have to!" An Nuan snapped at Ye Jingjing, "At this time, don't give any of us any more trouble!"
Ye Jingjing was shut down by An Nuan, unable to say a word.
Her eyes looked at An Nuan, appearing somewhat wronged, yet not daring to get angry.
Uncle Zhong went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
An Nuan waited for Qin Jiang at home.
In less than half an hour.
Qin Jiang hurried over in a rush.
Usually appearing casual, but when faced with situations, he was more reliable than anyone.
A man followed behind him.
An Nuan did not have any familiarity with this person in her memory.
Qin Jiang introduced him to An Nuan quickly and urgently, "This is Lawyer Wang Xu. When Jinghuai was studying to become a lawyer, Wang Xu was his teacher and mentor. He mainly teaches now and rarely takes cases, but he is very capable and his abilities are unquestionable."
An Nuan could not help but size him up.
This man appeared to be in his forties, looking very mature and steady, wearing a scholarly pair of framed glasses, giving off an impression of great humility and courtesy.
"Hello." An Nuan greeted him first.
"Hello, Mrs. Ye." Wang Xu nodded slightly. "I just learned about Jinghuai's case briefly from Qin Jiang. From my perspective, since the other party could be so brazen, the evidence in this case will be very substantial, so our chances of winning are not high."
"I don't think so," An Nuan directly refuted Wang Xu, not wanting to accept his viewpoint. "Since this is a framing, there must be loopholes to be found. I don't think any situation can be perfect without flaws."
"I agree," Qin Jiang quickly echoed.
"Of course, I also believe that. I'm just telling you that the situation is not optimistic. But we won't delay any further, I've already gone to the prosecutors' office to communicate in advance. Now let's go see the situation, see if we can get bail."
"Okay," An Nuan agreed readily.
The group left.
Uncle Zhong and Ye Jingjing watched their backs.
Ye Jingjing's eyes reddened again.
She said, "My brother won't really get into trouble, will he?!"
"I don't know why, but I have a feeling the lady can get the young master out," Uncle Zhong said gloomily.
...
The group sat in Hu Feng's car.
It was originally very quiet inside the car.
Until An Nuan's phone rang.
She glanced at the caller ID and answered, "Qiqi."
"Damn, Ye Jinghuai got arrested?" Xia Qiqi sounded particularly excited.
"How did you know?" An Nuan frowned.
"It's all over the news, everyone in the country now knows that Ye Jinghuai was arrested for corruption and bribery," Xia Qiqi spoke loudly. "I'm telling you, that bastard Ye Jinghuai, does he lack money? 5 million is nothing to him, why would he take bribes? Did he think 5 million was too small an amount to count as corruption, so he just casually took it?"
"..." An Nuan didn't even want to explain to Xia Qiqi.
Ye Jinghuai would not be stupid enough for that.
"To Ye Jinghuai it might be a small amount, but to ordinary people, it's a fortune they could never earn in their lifetime. Why would Ye Jinghuai be so stupid!" Xia Qiqi scolded on the other end.
An Nuan couldn't stand it anymore, "You're the stupid one, you're more stupid than anyone!"
"...You're scolding me!" Xia Qiqi complained.
"Instead of wasting time, you should work properly, or else your family assets will be turned over and you won't even know it!"
"You mean Xiao Nuanchen?" Xia Qiqi's expression clearly changed.
"That's why I said you're stupid, hopelessly stupid."
"An Nuan!"
"I'm not talking about this anymore, I'm busy."
"Hey," Xia Qiqi spoke into the phone, "I was actually going to come and comfort you, I know you're not feeling well."
An Nuan pursed her lips.
She actually knew.
Xia Qiqi occasionally just liked to show off, but she was really trying to cheer her up.
She said, "I'm fine."
"Really? You and Ye Jinghuai are so in love now, and he was taken away, aren't you going to be very upset?"
"I believe Ye Jinghuai is innocent, and I'm confident I can get him out."
"Do you need my help?"
"Not for now."
"Let me know if you need me anywhere."
"Just don't cause any trouble."
"..."
"That's enough, I'm hanging up now."
Without waiting for Xia Qiqi to say anything else, she hung up the phone.
After hanging up, An Nuan immediately opened the news app to read the news.
The news that Ye Jinghuai had been arrested on suspicion of corruption instantly became the top headline and a hot topic.
An Nuan gritted her teeth silently.
Wang Xu's words just now echoed in her mind.
If the other party had acted so brazenly, did that really mean that this incident had no way to turn back!
