Such a big and important matter, and Lin Jingyu's special status—she's a celebrity with many fans supporting her.
Without concrete evidence, the police would never arbitrarily arrest a public figure; that would create a huge public outcry and make the public doubt their credibility.
Just then, Shen Jingyao's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Wen Shu calling.
Shen Jingyao glanced at Lin Jingyu, picked up the phone, stood up, and walked towards the door. Once outside, she softly called out, "Shushu, my darling!"
Although she kept her voice very low, Lin Jingyu listened intently and indeed heard Wen Shu's name.
The key point is that Shen Jingyao called him so affectionately, which provoked Lin Jingyu.
She gritted her teeth, narrowed her eyes, and suddenly clutched her stomach, rolling around on the bed. "Ouch, someone help me! My stomach hurts so much... Doctor... Mom, Mom, save me!"
Her shout did indeed alert the people outside. Shen Jingyao quickly stood up and whispered to Wen Shu on the other end of the phone, "Baby, wait for Mommy. Mommy will call you back in a bit. Something urgent has come up!"
Shen Jingyao hurriedly hung up the phone, and the doctor was rushing towards the ward. "What happened? He was perfectly normal just now."
As the doctor and Shen Jingyao were about to enter, Lin Han stopped them at the door. "It's nothing serious, she was in pain for a moment, but it's not hurting now. I think it's more psychological. I'll go talk to her for a bit, and she should be fine."
Shen Jingyao looked at Lin Han with a puzzled expression. "What do you mean, Lin Han? Putting everything else aside, Jing Yu is pregnant and about to give birth. You can't throw a tantrum at a time like this."
Lin Han glanced at Shen Jingyao and asked her, "Mom, am I the kind of person who throws tantrums? Trust me, it'll only take five minutes."
Shen Jingyao hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to believe her son. Her eldest son was not one to talk nonsense; he had always been a worry-free person and reliable in his work.
After Shen Jingyao persuaded the doctor to leave, Lin Han reached out and closed the ward door.
Lin Jingyu stared at him nervously and asked, "Lin Han, what do you want? Where's Mom? Let Mom in!"
Lin Han walked expressionlessly to the foot of the bed, looked down at Lin Jingyu and said, "Do you admit it or not? The matter is settled. The more fiercely you deny it and the more you resist, the heavier the punishment you will receive."
"The Lin family is just an ordinary business family. If you are trying to use your mother and the Lin family to pull strings for you, to get away with murder and escape justice, then I think your wish is destined to fail."
“The Lin family would never keep a criminal in their home. To harbor a criminal is to nurture one. The Lin family has always believed that the innocent will clear themselves. If you have no suspicions, the police will naturally release you after their investigation. They will never stand by and watch you be wronged.”
“But if you have indeed committed a crime, no matter how affectionate you are now, no matter how fiercely you shout, Mom will absolutely not help you.” Lin Han stared at her and asked, “Lin Jingyu, do you dare to put your hand on your heart and say that you really did not use someone else to kill someone? Do you dare to say that you did not manipulate people’s hearts and try to make someone hit Wen Shu to death, but only accidentally hit Grandma?”
Lin Jingyu remained calm and composed, immediately shouting, "Of course I didn't! I've been framed! Don't even think about blowing me up, don't even think about extorting me, I didn't kill anyone! I just didn't kill anyone, you can say a thousand or ten thousand, I just didn't kill anyone, I can slap my chest and say I didn't kill anyone, so what? Are you satisfied now?"
Lin Han looked at her nonchalant attitude and couldn't help but laugh. "How long do you think your pregnancy status can protect you? Right now, your only asset is your big belly."
"Don't worry, when the police really interrogate you, it won't be like before, where they'd surround you and interrogate you for an hour or two before sending you to the hospital. I'm actually quite curious to see what kind of expression you'll have when you confess."
Lin Jingyu was certainly afraid, but her mental fortitude in this regard was indeed better than that of the average person. Even when Lin Han stared intently at her, she dared to deny it loudly, even with a pale face.
She wasn't trying to deny it to Lin Han, but rather hoped that Shen Jingyao outside would hear it.
"Let them interrogate me, let's see if I'm afraid of not having done it! I didn't do it! Nobody can frame me!"
Her confident and righteous manner was so realistic.
Even though she was panicking inside, Lin Jingyu's performance was still perfect.
She's a pretty good actress, she just lacks a breakout opportunity.
Having worked in Hollywood, her acting skills are indeed worthy of attention.
For example, her crying face was praised by the director when she first debuted, who said that she was a rare beauty when she cried.
Lin Jingyu knew better than anyone how she would cry to soften Shen Jingyao's heart and how she would act to make Shen Jingyao believe that she was innocent.
Shen Jingyao sat on a chair outside, somewhat lost in thought. Could it be that she had really wronged Jing Yu?
Could it be that the police made a mistake?
When Lin Han came out, he could tell what his mother was thinking just by looking at her expression.
"Mom, you've had a long day. Go home and rest. The Ma family's nanny has arrived, and they'll take care of her. You're absolutely not going to hear the truth from her."
“We’ll leave everything to the police. If they say she’s innocent, then we can believe them. But right now she’s a suspect, and everything we say or do will be seen as an attempt to exonerate her. So it’s best to avoid contact with her for now.”
Lin Han was mainly afraid that her biological mother would be soft-hearted. After all, she was the daughter she had raised with great care, and she absolutely did not want Lin Jingyu to be a murderer.
Lin Han even felt that his mother was probably hoping the police had made a mistake. To prevent his mother from being influenced by Lin Jingyu again, Lin Han decided it was better not to let them meet alone.
After all, when faced with evidence, one cannot help but believe it.
Wen Shu, whose phone call had been disconnected, was puzzled. She seemed to hear the background sounding like a hospital. Why was her mother so anxious? Could something have happened to someone else in the family?
Just as he was getting worried, Shen Jingyao called again. She didn't want to hide anything from Wen Shu at all; she didn't want any misunderstandings between them.
This is the daughter she finally managed to reunite with; she must protect her.
Her little girl didn't grow up by her side, but she worked hard to grow into a good girl with sound values, a positive attitude, and full of positive energy. This is her blessing, and she must never let anyone hurt her precious daughter's heart.
“Actually, Mom is at the hospital. Lin Jingyu was arrested, and it turned out she was heavily pregnant when she was arrested. She had stomach pains during the interrogation, so she was sent to the hospital.” Shen Jingyao said as if to assure her, “Don’t worry, baby, Mom didn’t come here to exonerate her, but to get the truth out of her.”
“If she commits a crime, she must pay the price. Mom will never cover for her!”
