Chapter 346: For Lin Jie’s Sake
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Gu Zi was startled by the ferocious gaze of the old woman. How could such a kind-hearted man like Papa Lin be born to such a terrifying old hag?
No wonder Papa Lin was never favored by the old woman. Like attracts like, and Papa Lin was the odd one out in their family, so it was inevitable that he would be ostracized.
Mother Lin shielded Gu Zi behind her, fearing that the old woman would harm Gu Zi. “Please be reasonable,” she pleaded. “Your second son’s leg has been broken by your grandson, and you still say it’s a trivial matter! Even if you don’t care about your second son, he is still your own flesh and blood. You are too biased.”
The old woman was not willing to listen to these words. She raised her hand to slap Mother Lin, but her wrist was caught in time by Su Shen.
Someone from the police station came out and warned, “Even at the entrance of the police station, you dare to cause trouble. Everyone is equal before the law, and if you go too far, we will punish you according to the law.”
Su Shen released his grip and escorted Gu Zi and her mother inside.
Seeing the police arrive, the old woman dared not make a scene anymore, but she was still defiant, cursing, “Hmph, arrest me? Let’s see which of you bastards dares to arrest me!”
The security guards shook their heads at her words, but they wouldn’t interfere with such an unreasonable old woman. It would only cause trouble.
After the criminals were arrested, those who were not immediately sentenced were taken to the detention center at the police station.
Today, the verdict for Lin Jie and the other four was to be announced in the main hall of the detention center. Su Shen led Gu Zi and the others directly there.
Lin Laoyao and his wife were also present. Seeing Su Shen and the others arrive, Lin Laoyao said nothing, his eyes empty as he stared at the ground. His wife glared at Mother Lin and Gu Zi, but she didn’t dare to look at Su Shen.
Soon after, the old woman also entered, cursing and swearing.
Before long, a police officer came out and announced that Lin Jie and the other four were guilty of joint intentional crime.
Gu Zi looked at the unreasonable old woman and couldn’t help but laugh. She said, “Whether my husband has money or not has nothing to do with whether you should pay compensation. The person was not beaten by my husband. We are at the police station now, your unreasonable arguments won’t work here.
Save your saliva for thirst.”
Old Lady Lin was so rebuked that she stomped her foot. Seeing this, Lin Laoyao’s wife cried out, “Gu Zi, you just don’t want our family to live well, I understand. I shouldn’t have offended your mother in the past, so you’re taking revenge on me like this…”
Regardless, she was not going to give up the money easily. Let them make a fuss, the police couldn’t possibly arrest her too.
Gu Zi shook her head and said, “No, you’re being too extreme. I have no reason to take revenge on you. Your son is going to jail simply because he committed a crime he shouldn’t have and must pay the price for his actions. At most, I am being a bit more serious, but looking at the results, it is indeed for Lin Jie’s own good.”
Lin Laoyao, who had been silent all along, found Gu Zi’s words laughable and could no longer maintain his silence.
“You insist on sending my son to jail, demanded compensation, and refuse to settle privately. How is any of this for Lin Jie’s good? Gu Zi, we are your relatives after all, and I am your father’s brother.. I know it’s a bit late to say this, but can’t you be a bit more forgiving?”
