Chapter 404: Destroy Yourself
Hu Yunqin had no choice but to look at the police officer and ask, "Comrade police officer, is this matter serious? Will my children be sentenced?"
"Your daughter's behavior itself is illegal. Although the victim wasn't injured, she threw sulfuric acid with the intent to harm others. Even though the victim dodged, it still constitutes attempted intentional injury. Whether she should bear criminal responsibility will be determined based on our investigation and the victim's understanding. If the victim disagrees, then the only option is to go through the court process. The sentence for attempted intentional injury is up to three years, and she must compensate the victim for emotional distress and lost wages. If she admits her mistake and compensates, she will generally receive suspended sentence or detention of no more than three months, but this will remain on her criminal record."
The police officer’s meaning was very clear, this matter still depends on Lan Yan himself.
If Lan Yan is willing to mediate privately, the matter can be resolved peacefully.
When Hu Yunqin heard this, her legs suddenly went weak and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Luo Jian supported her.
She never thought that Dong Xiaoxiao would make such a big deal out of it.
Not only that, she also got herself involved!
At this time, Dong Jian had no time to care about this matter as he had to deal with the company's affairs.
Because half an hour ago, the video at the restaurant entrance had been posted online by the media.
Hu Yunqin represents not only herself, but also the Dong family's business.
After hearing the result of this incident, Dong Xiaoxiao panicked and started shaking, even losing control of her emotions.
They could hear her screams in the interrogation room from where they were standing outside.
"Yan Yan, Mom has never begged you before. Can you please give your sister a chance today for Mom's sake?"
Hu Yunqin had no other choice but to ask Lan Yan for help.
Lan Yan looked at her calmly and indifferently. "Then give me a reason. Why should I give her a chance for your sake? Ms. Hu, don't forget that you never raised me for a single day. There's no deep family bond between you and me."
Lan Yan's words were like an invisible hand strangling her neck, making her hold her breath, unable to go out or come in.
Reason, what reason could she have?
She even felt panicky.
If she helped Dong Xiaoxiao in this matter, then Hao'er would...
She weighed the pros and cons in her mind and decided to give up Dong Xiaoxiao.
Hu Yunqin looked at her and said, "Yanyan, I'm sorry. I was inconsiderate. I won't interfere in this matter. Xiaoxiao has an impulsive personality. She will suffer losses sooner or later. This time, I can teach her a lesson."
Lan Yan looked at her deeply with cold eyes.
She just curled her red lips slightly and said nothing.
She had to admire Hu Yunqin's decisiveness and her ability to change things as soon as she said she would.
She thought she would do something great for Dong Xiaoxiao, but it seems that it is nothing special.
Lan Yan would not be so sympathetic as to let Dong Xiaoxiao go so easily. After all, she has never been a kind person.
Lan Yan looked at the police officer standing by and asked, "Hello, police officer, can I see her?"
The police just understood that these people are a family.
The police officer thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll make the arrangements."
After a few minutes, Lan Yan met Dong Xiaoxiao.
As soon as Dong Xiaoxiao saw her, her emotions, which had not yet calmed down, were instantly irritated.
"Lan Yan, you bitch! It's you, it's you who did this, right? You just want to kill me and take Mommy all to yourself!"
She was very emotional and wanted to stand up, but the next second she was held down on the shoulders by the female police officer next to her.
"Sit still and don't move!"
Lan Yan looked at her, smiled, and said, "Dong Xiaoxiao, you are really naive. You treat others as treasures, but they may not treat you as treasures."
"What do you mean?"
"I remember I warned you before, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid." Lan Yan said, "Miss Dong, just because you don't have a brain doesn't mean I don't have one. I wouldn't dare break the law. It's just that your paranoia is too severe. No one is competing with you for it. What's yours is yours, and what's not yours, even if you put in tens of thousands of times more effort, you won't win."
Lan Yan rolled her eyes and said, "If you apologize to me, I might consider not pursuing criminal liability against you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Dong Xiaoxiao said, "You're dreaming! I will never admit my mistakes to you in my life!"
Lan Yan was not too surprised by Dong Xiaoxiao's answer.
She looked at her with a smile in her eyes and said, "It seems that Miss Dong is very strong-willed. If that's the case, then I have nothing more to say. You can slowly reform yourself in here."
After saying that, she turned and walked out.
Dong Xiaoxiao called her from behind.
But Lan Yan ignored her.
After she came out, she looked at Hu Yunqin who was sitting on a chair beside her and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about today?"
Hu Yunqin did have something to say to her today, but now, it seemed that it made no difference whether she said it or not.
She said, "It's okay, Mom just missed you and wanted to have dinner with you."
After hearing her words, Lan Yan's eyes flashed with sarcasm.
The credibility of such words is almost zero.
However, since she didn't want to say it, there was nothing more she could say.
"let's go."
Lan Yan looked at Xiao Si, said something, and then left.
Hu Yunqin looked at Lan Yan's departing back and felt a slight pain in her heart as if it were being pierced by needles.
"Madam, what should we do about this?" Luo Jian asked from the side, "We can't really let the young lady go to jail, right?"
Hu Yunqin didn't say anything, but remained silent for a moment.
Finally, she said, "Her father doesn't care about her, how can I control her?"
“…”
Hu Yunqin suddenly laughed and continued, "He doesn't even care about his own son, so how could he care about Dong Xiaoxiao?"
In Dong Jian's eyes, interests sometimes outweigh everything else.
"We can't offend Lan Yan at this time, otherwise the bone marrow issue will only become more and more difficult."
"Ma'am, what should we do next?"
How to do it?
She doesn't know either.
What was originally a good game of chess was turned into a mess.
"Let's go back first." She said weakly.
Afterwards, the two also left the police station.
Hu Yunqin didn't bother to care about what was happening on the Internet, because someone would take care of it anyway.
After Lan Yan left the police station, Xiao Si took her to lunch and then sent her back to the research institute.
"I'll lend you the car." Lan Yan looked at him and said before getting out of the car.
The car he was driving was hers, and if he left it behind, he would have no car to go back to.
"I'll pick you up this afternoon," he said.
Lan Yan said, "No need. You can just drive back to Yuefu Villa. I'll take the boss's car back."
She has to go out with Su He to do some work in the afternoon, and she probably won't go back to the institute after they're done.
