Upon hearing her brother's cursing, Su Lin's face turned deathly pale, and she muttered angrily.

"What are you saying?"

“We’re all family. I’m your older sister. If you take the blame for me, our whole family can get out of this mess and have more money than we can spend for the rest of our lives.”

"What's the point of letting you out? You're not Lin Chu's wife, and you're not a woman."

"When it comes to court and the divorce decree is issued, it only works when the woman is in a weaker position. The man has no advantage, so it's pointless to ask you to come out."

Hearing her grumbling, Su Yao became even more furious.

"You're talking nonsense!"

"You're adopted by your parents, we're not related by blood, don't talk like we're so close!"

"This is definitely a lie you made up to fool me on purpose. So what if I'm a man? Am I a man to die?"

"Why isn't the law on my side?!"

"You're a woman, so what difference does it make? I'm not having it! Why should I confess? You didn't do anything! Without you, could I have made that much money?!"

Su Lin hadn't expected that bringing up this matter would provoke such strong resistance from Su Yao.

They even said things like she was adopted.

He was immediately so angry that his face turned red and his eyes widened in fury.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm adopted, and I'm still your sister!!"

"From childhood to adulthood, what good things haven't I given you? What's the point of you arguing with me about serving a year or two in prison?"

"Even if I go in with you, you won't get a reduced sentence. When we both finish our sentences and come out together, we'll still be penniless, without a single penny!"

"By then, even if I still want to fight this divorce case with Lin Chu, I won't have the chance anymore, you know that?!"

Su Lin became increasingly angry as she spoke, and she refused to back down.

"Besides, let's go on!"

"What do I care about all the shady things you do, gambling and money laundering overseas? From beginning to end, besides taking money out of my hands, have you ever informed me about anything?"

"I always thought you had invested all 40 million and made double the money, and that the divorce would make me a billionaire."

"As a result, not only did you lose it all, but you also gambled it all away, and now you're drowning in debt!"

"You tell me yourself, what does this have to do with me?!"

"Fine, you won't admit your guilt? Then drag me into this too. Let's see who can get you out of here when only your parents are left out. Who can help you get tens of millions in assets? Who can help this ex-convict find you a good wife!"

The siblings got so angry that they started hurling insults at each other over the phone.

Their conversation was limited to the two of them, so the guards in the detention center naturally didn't care. They weren't in charge of handling cases; investigations require evidence, not just what the suspect says.

After arguing for a long time, Su Yao, though still somewhat unwilling, realized that what his sister said made some sense.

Even if he gets out, does he think he can use his status as the brother-in-law to fight this divorce case with Lin Chu?

Besides, even if he dragged Su Lin into this mess, he wouldn't be able to get out on his own.

In the end, the siblings could only end up in jail together, leaving their parents to suffer alone outside.

Having figured this out, he was somewhat resigned to his fate.

He waved his hand impatiently, interrupting Su Lin's rambling.

"Alright, alright, no need to say more, I understand."

Is your lawyer... reliable?

After holding it in for a long time, he could only ask this one question with a frown. He didn't want to sacrifice himself for nothing, only to end up not winning the case.

Wouldn't that mean I'd be spending a few more years in jail for nothing?

Su Lin had been talking for a long time and her mouth was dry; she was getting tired.

Seeing that her younger brother's attitude had softened, she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly echoed his explanation.

"A reliable divorce lawyer with the highest success rate, and extremely famous!"

"I had no other choice. I contacted many lawyers, but none of them were willing to take the case. Only she did, and she has already come up with a way to deal with Lin Chu!"

"To put it simply, she handled several of the most notorious divorce cases in our area, and without exception, the men all ended up leaving with nothing and paying a heavy price."

"Even in the case where the woman cheated, she was able to take 80% of the assets, leaving only the house and the mortgage to the man!"

"Tell me, isn't this lawyer amazing!"

As soon as she said this, Su Lin keenly sensed her younger brother Su Yao's wavering attitude and hurriedly added fuel to the fire to continue persuading him.

"And let me tell you, this lawyer is also very skilled at handling these kinds of economic cases!"

"She said that as long as you can insist that you did it all and that I had no knowledge of it, she has a way to launder more than half of the 40 million!"

"When the amount of money involved in your case decreases, the severity of your sentence will definitely be greatly reduced!"

"For example, if she was originally sentenced to three years, she might only get a year and a half at most after her intervention. If she behaves well, she might be released in half a year!"

"That's not all!"

"She also has a way to make this money appear as if it was spent during the marriage with Lin Chu's knowledge. Maybe she can teach you a few things to say in court, and you might even be able to walk out on the spot!"

"But, but, there's a but."

“You have to take responsibility first, then your sister will have the space and room to work with the lawyer. Otherwise, if I get involved too, there will be no way to deal with it.”

"A crucial step in this plan is you, but the most crucial core lies with me!"

"As long as you win the divorce case with Lin Chu, even if you go to jail and come out, you'll still live a life of luxury and have more money than you can spend!"

"Think about it carefully!!"

Saying these words had almost burned out Su Lin's brain cells.

Besides the scripts that lawyer Song Yuhong had instructed her on, she also did her best to fabricate many other things, regardless of whether they could actually be achieved, just to coax Su Yao into agreeing.

Only with a turning point can things have a chance to live!

Su Yao was already somewhat tempted by what he was being said.

In his view, the most crucial issue was indeed unavoidable: even if he forcibly pinned the charge of transferring assets on Su Lin, he would still be penniless and penniless after he got out.

Should we make him work?

For so many years, since Su Lin and Lin Chu got married, more than ten years ago when he was still in middle school, he has never gone out to work for a single day and has never earned a penny!

Having grown accustomed to a comfortable and carefree life, he would never want to experience hardship again.

After thinking for a moment, I realized that it was almost time for my visit.

Su Yao finally gritted his teeth and nodded, admitting it.

"Okay, I accept it, we'll do it your way!"

"Next time they interrogate me, I'll take all the blame and say that I deliberately kept it from you, that you were unaware of it, and that I'll take all the charges!"

"But remember one thing!!"

As he spoke, Su Yao suddenly looked up at Su Lin outside with a fierce gaze, who seemed somewhat relieved, and spoke through gritted teeth.

"I'm taking your place in jail!"

"Once I get out of here, I'm going to take half of the money you got from Lin Chu!!"
