[Chapter 218 Attempted Murder]
It was a normal day until Lin Yin received a text message alert.
She took out her phone and glanced at it casually. The next second, her eyes suddenly widened. "Oh my God, what's going on?"
She hurriedly ran to the kitchen with her phone in her hand, her voice filled with shock and anxiety, "Jingze, check my text messages, there's an extra 100 million in my account!"
Huo Jingze was wearing an apron and cooking. Hearing this, he kept cutting vegetables without stopping. He was not surprised at all. "This is Li Mufeng's compensation to you. Just accept it."
Lin Yin's eyes widened, "Compensation? One hundred million in compensation!"
"Yes, one hundred million is enough to buy Li Bingyue's future." Huo Jingze wiped his hands and raised his eyebrows at her, "My Lin Yin will also be a wealthy woman in the future."
Lin Yin hadn't recovered from her shock yet, her mouth was wide open, and her dazed look was quite cute.
Huo Jingze pinched her soft face with his hands and chuckled, "Are you stupid? It's only 100 million. When we get married, you will have tens of billions."
The number was so huge that Lin Yin couldn't imagine how much money it was.
One hundred million was already shocking to her.
She had never had so much money before.
"Will he sue us for extortion?" Lin Yin held the phone, feeling uneasy.
"He doesn't have the guts."
"Is Li Bingyue really going to be released?" Lin Yin wondered, "But she has already been sentenced."
Huo Jingze's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a cold voice: "He and Sun Qing'er killed our child, caused irreparable damage to your body, and almost ruined the relationship between the two of us. The price they paid is far from enough."
"What are you going to do?" Lin Yin was really curious.
Huo Jingze curled his lips with a meaningful smile, "I only promised to let them not go to jail, but I didn't promise to give them freedom."
Lin Yin became even more confused, but she soon understood what Huo Jingze meant.
…
A large group of people stood in front of the mental hospital.
Several medical staff in white coats struggled to hold down Li Bingyue who was struggling desperately.
"Huo Jingze, you bastard, you clearly promised my dad to let me go, why did you go back on your word!"
Li Bingyue no longer had the arrogance of the past. Her hair was disheveled, her facial features were distorted, and she was yelling hysterically at the man not far away.
Li Mufeng rushed over and felt very distressed to see his daughter in this state. He quickly ran over, pushed away the medical staff, and helped Li Bingyue up from the ground.
"Dad, Dad, you are finally here. You must save me. I don't want to go to a mental hospital!" Li Bingyue was so scared that she went straight into Li Mufeng's arms, tears streaming down her face.
Li Mufeng hugged her tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Dad will never send you to a mental hospital."
After saying that, he looked up at Huo Jingze, his face full of anger, "Huo Jingze, you clearly promised me to let Bingyue go, why are you doing this?"
Huo Jingze's dark eyes looked at the father and daughter calmly, "The sentencing is an established fact, and the media has already publicized it. If you want to avoid going to jail, besides being diagnosed as a mentally ill person, tell me, is there any other way to evade legal responsibility?"
Li Mufeng was angry, "You can..."
"What can you do?" Huo Jingze interrupted him nonchalantly before he could finish his words. "You want others to know that your Li family has privileges, so you don't have to go to jail if you want? You can harm others without being punished by law?"
"You...you..." Li Mufeng's breath was choked in his throat. He wanted to argue, but didn't know what to say.
He had indeed thought about taking this route. As long as Huo Jingze turned a blind eye, Li Bingyue would be able to come out, and then he could send her abroad.
But obviously, Huo Jingze never thought of letting Li Bingyue go.
That 100 million yuan can only keep Li Bingyue from going to jail, but it will never bring her freedom.
"Do you have to be so aggressive?" Li Mufeng's old face was covered with tears. "I only have this one daughter. What's the difference between her being locked up in a mental hospital and being in prison?"
"There is only one Lin Yin in the world. Why does Li Bingyue have the right to hurt her again and again?" Huo Jingze's handsome face sank. He had no patience to listen to his self-torture. "If you don't want to go to a mental hospital, then go to jail."
He exuded a cold aura and his attitude was tough and ruthless.
Li Bingyue hid in Li Mufeng's arms, tears rolling down her face, feeling a deep regret in her heart.
If she had known Huo Jingze was so ruthless, she shouldn't have liked him in the first place...
She regrets it so much.
I hate it too!
How could he be so heartless!
A strong hatred surged in her heart, and Li Bingyue stared at Lin Yin beside Huo Jingze.
Lin Yin noticed her gaze and frowned.
The next second, Li Bingyue suddenly pushed Li Mufeng away, pulled out a hairpin that a medical staff member was using to tie her hair, and rushed towards Lin Yin before anyone could react. The fluorescent hairpin stabbed Lin Yin's heart fiercely.
Since Huo Jingze is ruthless, let him also taste the pain!
The accident happened so suddenly that Lin Yin was caught off guard and her mind went blank. She had no time to react at all. Seeing that the sharp hairpin was about to pierce her chest, she subconsciously closed her eyes.
At the critical moment, Huo Jingze suddenly pulled Lin Yin, then kicked Li Bingyue in the stomach.
"Bang--"
The expected pain did not come, but instead there was a loud noise of a heavy object falling to the ground.
She opened her eyes and looked over in shock.
Li Bingyue was kicked out and fell heavily to the ground, letting out a scream.
"Are you okay?" Huo Jingze grabbed Lin Yin's shoulders, looking nervous.
Lin Yin pressed her chest where her heart was beating wildly, her breathing became a little rapid, and she shook her head, "It's okay."
After making sure that she was okay, Huo Jingze pulled her behind him, glanced at Li Mufeng with cold eyes, and spoke in an extremely cold voice.
"Attempted murder is enough to sentence her to another ten years."
Li Mufeng was almost irritated to death by Li Bingyue's impulsiveness and closed his eyes in despair.
He glanced at Li Bingyue, who was lying on the ground holding her stomach in pain, then slowly stood up, walked to Huo Jingze, bowed 90 degrees, and lowered his head deeply.
"I'm sorry, Bingyue has been spoiled by me. I don't expect you to forgive her, I just beg you to give her a way out. From now on, I will no longer care about her, nor will I deal with Lin Yin for her."
After saying that, he turned around, looked deeply at Li Bingyue, and then walked away.
Li Bingyue panicked, "Dad, Dad, you don't care about me anymore!"
She struggled to get up from the ground and tried to chase Li Mufeng, but was stopped by two medical staff.
The director of the mental hospital looked at Huo Jingze and said, "Mr. Huo, I will take them to the hospital first."
Sun Qing'er and Li Bingyue were forcibly taken to a mental hospital without saying a word.
Li Bingyue showed no remorse and was still cursing dirty words.
Huo Jingze's face was gloomy, and his eyes exuded a chilling coldness. "Her mental illness is very serious. The dean must treat her well."
The dean nodded, "I know."
