“You’re older, so comfort this young man, tell him to reform himself, start anew, and strive to get out as soon as possible to serve society.”
The youngest one can't even speak anymore.
The older one, however, spoke clearly. Firstly, he had more life experience, and the advantage of his age was evident. Secondly, this reason was insignificant—he wasn't the one who used a weapon to injure someone.
"Young man..."
The older man hesitated for a moment before speaking, even changing his form of address: "After all, both sides are injured, and our injuries are more serious—let's be lenient when we can. Let's each take a step back, we'll contribute some money, and you can buy some things for that brother to help him recover—and that'll be the end of it, how about it?"
"Not very good."
Lu Yibei laughed and gestured with his chin toward the injured man, saying, "If I take a step back, I'm afraid I'll fall and end up like him."
"Hiring a lawyer costs money, and you're still students," the older man said earnestly.
“He’s a rich kid,” Lu Yibei pointed at Cheng Mingli.
Cheng Mingli hesitated, but seeing Lu Yibei's confident demeanor, he adapted to his new identity: "Yes! So what!?"
“But time… going to court takes a lot of time,” the older man added.
"no…"
Lu Yibei smiled: "He's a rich second-generation, are you worried he won't have time? Are you worried it will affect his studies, prevent him from graduating, or make him unable to find a good job or what?"
Older: ...
He glanced at the youngest one, who already had a helpless expression on his face.
As for the other person who hadn't spoken until now, they were already scolding him: "I said you went too far—"
"You son of a bitch! Didn't you hand me the stool?! Don't try to get away with this—"
"What does this have to do with me? I'm warning you, don't you dare say anything out of line!!"
That side has already fallen into internal strife.
The two, who were originally "friends," got red-eyed and started shoving each other.
Lu Yibei watched with great interest, but unfortunately, this was a hospital after all, and a nurse at the end of the corridor shouted, "No noise allowed!"
They then made the two of them turn off the engine.
The youngest one, through Lu Yibei's words, realized that he was the one with the most problems, so he quickly lowered his voice and tried to please Lu Yibei.
Before he could even speak, Lu Yibei turned to Qiao Sinian and asked, "Did you call the police?"
Qiao Sinian was so engrossed in listening to Lu Yibei speak that she shook her head in a daze.
"Then what are we waiting for? Report it!"
Lu Yibei urged, "I just sent a WeChat message to the lawyer, and she's on her way... You can have her explain the situation on your behalf later."
Qiao Sinian was about to make a phone call.
The older one asked Lu Yibei—judging from his unwell appearance, Lu Yibei guessed that if this weren't a hospital corridor, he would definitely be smoking a cigarette.
"Young man, are you from law school?"
"I am not."
Lu Yibei shook his head and then smiled, "My mom is."
