Chapter 542: Don’t Let Me Lose You A Third Time (1)

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“I want to see my lawyer. I want to retract my confession!”

Huo Weichen wanted to retract his confession, so Huo Jiuxiao helped him hire a lawyer. When the police station handed over the case, the chain of evidence was already closed. It was unknown how much effort Fu Lizhen’s master had put in, but the result was obvious. Therefore, even if Huo Weichen wanted to retract his confession, it would not affect the court’s judgment.

The lawyer went to the detention center to understand Huo Weichen’s situation. Unexpectedly, he admitted to rape and drug rape, but denied that he had committed intentional injury. He also told the lawyer about how Yun Shujing had tricked him into confessing his guilt.

“Can I still be saved?” Huo Weichen’s face was covered in sweat as he asked the lawyer tiredly. He shouldn’t have trusted anyone back then. He shouldn’t have cooperated with Yun Shujing.

“Mr. Huo, your case might be a little complicated.” the lawyer told Huo Weichen solemnly.

“There’s a chance?” Huo Weichen was burning with hope because the lawyer did not explicitly reject him.

The lawyer shook his head and poured cold water on Huo Weichen. “That’s not the case. Your mother, Ms. Yun, was arrested by the police this morning. A lot of video evidence was revealed, which involves more evidence of your crime. So, based on the current situation, I can only try my best to save your life.”

“D*mn it, you’re dragging me down even after being caught.” Huo Weichen slammed the iron table hard, causing the handcuffs to make a clear clanging sound. “Is there no way at all? I don’t want to die! I really don’t want to die!”

“The only person who can give you a chance to live is yourself. If you confess, turn yourself in, and help the police solve the case quickly, then it’s very likely that your sentence will be reduced. This is your only chance.”

“Wouldn’t that make me die faster?” Huo Weichen sneered.

“You can’t think of it that way. After all, after Ms. Yun knew that she might be sentenced to death, she confessed faster than anyone else.” The lawyer deliberately guided him.

“That b*tch really only has herself in her heart. Since that’s the case, let’s die together!”

In the end, Huo Weichen was successfully angered, and then he revealed a few cases that Yun Shujing had privately closed, successfully increasing Yun Shujing’s crimes. On Yun Shujing’s side, the police did the same thing, making the dirty mother and son fall into mutual accusations, helping the police quickly sort out the number of people Huo Weichen had committed, as well as whether they were dead or alive the end.

This was the price that Huo Weichen had to pay for retracting his confession. Of course, it would not affect the police investigation. After all, Huo Shengyuan had stored too much evidence. It was only a matter of time.

In the end, the lawyer reported to Huo Jiuxiao at the Huo family’s house. “The two of them are revealing the truth to each other like crazy. At present, Huo Weichen’s side has already been exposed. Yun Shujing is still holding back on other matters. Based on the current evidence, the possibility of the two of them being sentenced to death is already very high. It depends on how much the police can dig up in the end.”

Huo Qingxiao, Huo Zizhen, and the others were all at the dining table. Huo Yu’an was there as well. However, Huo Jiuxiao said to the lawyer without any hesitation, “We’re still missing one. Send it in soon.”

Everyone knew who the last one was. However, Huo Shengyuan kept the evidence of others’ crimes, but he disguised himself very well. Even though the Huo Corporation had been investigating for several days, they could only find some scraps. This showed how cautious Huo Shengyuan was when it came to certain matters.

The Huo Corporation had been cleaned up round after round, and scandals had been exposed again and again. Huo Qingxiao wanted to completely scrape his bones and heal his wounds this time, so the news of the Huo family was everywhere in the outside world, leaving the Huo family with nowhere to go. The reporters did not even let Huo Yu’an go, so she simply ran over to hide from them.

“Ah Li, take Huo Yu’an and stay at Deer Pavilion for two days.” Huo Jiuxiao suddenly turned to Lin Wanli.

“What about you?” Lin Wanli raised her head and asked Huo Jiuxiao.

“Uncle Xu has a mission.” Huo Jiuxiao replied as he wiped the oil off the corner of her mouth.

As long as Xu Chonglou was mentioned, Lin Wanli didn’t ask anymore.

“Alright then. I’ve been wanting to relax for the past few days.”

“Dad, Xing Guan and I are moving out too. I’m injured now and my legs are inconvenient. I have to find a more convenient place to live.” Huo Zizhen said to Huo Qingxiao.

“Go ahead.”

Huo Qingxiao didn’t stop her. After all these things were settled, he would leave the Huo family and return to his and Lu Ziyun’s old residence. Then, he would spend the rest of his life alone in that courtyard.
