[Chapter 298: Stop pretending]
Huo Jingze's eyes shot at Father Jiang like ice blades, "Uncle Jiang, are you threatening me? I, Huo Jingze, was not brought up to be scared. I will never let Lin Yin take the blame for something she didn't do. As for marrying Jiang Yirou, that's absolutely impossible."
Xu Zhenguo and Xu Yilian looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
Mrs. Huo frowned and looked at the Jiang family unhappily, "Xiao Jiang, it's not a good idea for you to force Jingze like this. We need evidence for everything. We can't convict Lin Yin based on your one-sided words alone."
Father Jiang snorted coldly, "Evidence? Yirou's current miserable condition is the evidence. She fell from such a high escalator and lost her fertility. Who else could it be if not Lin Yin pushing her? Old Madam Huo, you, the Huo family, cannot be so irresponsible."
Lan Weiyu also continued, "That's right, Huo Jingze must be responsible for Yirou. If he doesn't marry Yirou, our Jiang family will never let Lin Yin go."
Huo Jingze laughed in anger, "Okay, then just come at me!"
The two sides were in a stalemate and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
At this moment, Xu Yilian, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up, "Brother Jiang, Sister Jiang, let's not get so excited. There must be a solution to this matter. Can't we all sit down and discuss it carefully?"
Father Jiang simply couldn't listen, "There's nothing to discuss. Either Huo Jingze marries Yirou, or Lin Yin pays the price!"
The Jiang family was aggressive, and the atmosphere in the living room became even colder.
Xu Zhenguo was also a little angry. "Xiao Jiang, you are going too far. Jingze has his own choice and we can't force him. Besides, the matter has not been concluded yet. You can't be so arbitrary and conclude that it is Lin Yin's fault."
The Jiang family refused to give in and maintained a firm attitude.
"Marry Yirou or let Lin Yin go to jail. Think carefully about it!"
In the end, the two sides parted ways unhappily.
Mrs. Huo's face was full of worry. "What should we do? Jingze, you used to be a lawyer. Tell me, if the Jiang family really wants to sue Xiaoyin, do they have a good chance of winning?"
Huo Jingze's face was gloomy. After thinking for a moment, he said truthfully: "The Jiang family can sue Lin Yin based on the surveillance of the mall. If there is no evidence to prove that Jiang Yirou directed and acted on her own, the judge will have two ways of sentencing: intentional injury and negligent injury."
Either way, it's a crime.
They all have to go to jail.
Neither is the best option.
Once you've been in jail, your whole life will be tainted and you'll never be able to turn over a new leaf.
It will also affect Ni Lu's reputation.
For a moment, the living room fell into silence.
Old Mrs. Huo shed tears silently and said distressedly: "How could such a good child be involved in such a thing... Xiaoyin is a kind-hearted child. I don't believe she would do such a vicious thing. There must be some misunderstanding."
Xu Yilian pursed her lips and sighed, "We think so, but the Jiang family doesn't think so. They think their daughter is the best. I'm afraid this hurdle will be difficult to pass."
At this time, there was a noise at the door.
Huo Qingyun is back.
Seeing several people sitting in the living room, he walked over with a frown, his eyes fell on Huo Jingze's face, and his tone was not very good.
"At this point, you still want to protect Lin Yin? She made such a big mistake, and the Jiang family just wanted you to marry Jiang Yirou and generously let it go. What are you still hesitating about?"
Huo Qingyun looked at the other three people again, and was equally annoyed. "Why don't you try to persuade them? Instead, you are all meddling in other people's affairs. All of you have been blinded by that woman Lin Yin!"
Huo Jingze stood up suddenly, his voice cold and heavy, "I said, this matter has nothing to do with Lin Yin, she would never hurt anyone."
"The surveillance video recorded it all, and you are still defending her!" Huo Qingyun glared at him fiercely, "Jiang Yirou was injured so badly and lost her fertility. Although she is just an adopted daughter, she is raised as her own daughter. Do you think the Jiang family will let it go? I tell you, no matter what the Jiang family does, I will not interfere. You just take care of yourself!"
Huo Qingyun seems to be neutral, but he is actually on the side of the Jiang family.
He was putting pressure on Huo Jingze.
Xu Zhenguo couldn't stand it anymore, but there was nothing he could do. He had already retired and had no real power.
Whether they can get through this stage depends on the luck of Huo Jingze and Lin Yin.
Huo Qingyun snorted heavily, "If you really want to do good for Lin Yin, stay away from her, otherwise, you will kill her sooner or later!"
"I will not marry Jiang Yirou, and I will not leave Lin Yin."
After leaving these cold words, Huo Jingze turned around and left the country.
Drove to the hospital.
The bodyguard at the door stopped him and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao Huo, you can't go in."
Huo Jingze said sternly, "Get out of the way."
The bodyguard looked embarrassed, "The eldest master has ordered that you are not allowed to see the young lady alone."
"It's Brother Huo, right? Let him in."
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment, but finally opened the door.
Jiang Yirou saw the man coming in and smiled slightly, "Brother Huo, you came to see me."
Naturally, he seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness that happened in the ward two days ago.
Huo Jingze looked at Jiang Yirou expressionlessly, without a trace of warmth in his eyes, "Jiang Yirou, what on earth do you want to do?"
Jiang Yirou was slightly stunned, then her eyes turned red, tears welled up in her eyes, "Brother Huo, what are you talking about? I don't understand. I'm injured like this now, can't you care about me?"
Huo Jingze exposed her directly, "Don't pretend, you know exactly what happened when you fell off the escalator."
Jiang Yirou sobbed and said, "Brother Huo, how could you think of me like this? I was really pushed down by Lin Yin. I'm already so miserable, why don't you believe me?"
Huo Jingze took a step forward and looked down at her. "Jiang Yirou, I know your methods very well. Do you think you can force me to marry you like this? Dream on."
Jiang Yirou stopped sobbing and suddenly showed a somewhat cold smile on her face, "Brother Jingze, why don't you understand my painstaking efforts? Lin Yin has hurt me like this, the Jiang family will never let her go. Only if you are responsible for me can you calm my parents' anger and Lin Yin can be safe."
"I won't marry you." Huo Jingze said in a deep voice.
Jiang Yirou took a sip of water and was too lazy to pretend.
"Of course you don't have to marry me. Of course you can fight against the entire Jiang family and even the Lan family on your own. You used to be an invincible lawyer. I know you have the ability to fight with the Jiang family and keep Lin Yin out of jail."
She paused, propped herself up on the bed and sat up, smiling harmlessly.
"But can you protect her for a while, or for a lifetime?"
"Unless you keep her at home like a canary and never let her go out, there will always be some unexpected things that happen, right?"
