Mu Sen looked at Yu Yan, who was in such a miserable state and had a pale face, and felt mixed emotions.
Bankruptcy, divorce, infidelity, death of both parents, any of these accidents would make a person unable to stand up again, but she suffered all of them in almost two days. How could she endure such pain?
When Yu Yan saw Mu Sen, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw. She held his arm tightly, her eyes full of pleading. Holding back tears, she said word by word: "Officer Mu, can you take me to see my parents? They abandoned me and I can't find them."
The sound was so fragile that it seemed as if it would completely shatter in the next second.
Mu Sen pursed his lips, unable to refuse her like this.
Finally, he said with a hoarse voice, "Okay, I'll take you to meet... your parents."
According to the procedure, she should be brought to meet the emperor. She is the only survivor of the Yu family. Whether it is debts or signatures, she is a relative who cannot be separated from them.
It's just too cruel.
Mu Sen opened the car door and let Yu Yan get in. Looking at Yu Yan sitting in the car like a zombie, Mu Sen let out a long sigh. What was going to happen next was really difficult.
Mu Sen took Yu Yan to the police station. When the car stopped at the police station, Yu Yan seemed very confused. He looked at Mu Sen and asked blankly: "I want to find my parents. Why did you bring me to the police station?" Halfway through, Yu Yan seemed to understand something. He nodded again and said with understanding: "Oh, I forgot that my parents broke the law. Did you arrest them? Have they paid back all the money they owed? How many years do you think they can be sentenced to? But it doesn't matter how many years they are sentenced to. We agreed to rent a house near the prison. They will stay inside. I will wait for them outside. The three of us will still be together happily."
Her voice was calm and emotionless, her eyes staring blankly ahead, like a machine. She spoke of their plan in a numb voice, and Mu Sen didn't even know who she was talking to.
She looked really bad, with blood coming out of the soles of her feet. Her face was as pale as a patient who had not seen the sun for years. Her eyes were empty and numb, and she kept muttering, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll wait for them to come out."
Mu Sen, a grown man, felt so uncomfortable seeing Yu Yan like this that his eyes turned red. He clenched his fingers tightly, looked at Yu Yan, and spoke with difficulty.
"Miss Yu, your parents...something happened."
He didn't dare use the word "dead" for fear of upsetting the woman whose spirit was on the verge of collapse.
Mu Sen's words made Yu Yan's body stiffen for a moment, but she relaxed again, nodded, and said self-deceivingly: "I know, the company went bankrupt, the shares were sold off, and my parents committed crimes. I know something happened, but it's okay. Let's find a lawyer first to help my parents sue. Maybe they can get a few fewer years in prison. I have to clean up and look for a house outside. I have to find a place for our family of three to live. I have to wait for them to come out. We will be reunited as a family of three."
Mu Sen closed his eyes tightly. His chest felt like it was blocked by a stone, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Yu Yan was still rambling on and on, but Mu Sen couldn't hear a word she said. Finally, he said with difficulty, "Miss Yu, you...don't be like this."
Yu Yan seemed to come back to his senses suddenly and muttered to himself: "Yes, I have to find a lawyer. I have to ask him to help us with the lawsuit. Find a lawyer, find a lawyer."
He muttered to himself, "I'm going to find a lawyer," as his fingers touched the door handle, pushed open the door, and staggered out of the car.
At this moment, Mu Sen could no longer bear it. He quickly got out of the car, grabbed Yu Yan who was about to leave, and said in a low voice: "Miss Yu, I will take you to your parents."
Yu Yan stopped moving, his eyes blank, not knowing what he was thinking.
Mu Sen was hesitating about how to explain to Yu Yan that her parents were no longer alive. A middle-aged man in police uniform walked out quickly with documents in his hand.
When he saw Mu Sen, he said loudly: "Xiao Mu, how are things going over there? Have you found the family of the deceased? The higher-ups are pressing us hard, saying that there are still cases against the Yu couple. They asked us to hurry up."
The family of the deceased, the Yu couple?
Yu Yan's head felt like it had been hit hard by someone. It hurt so much that he couldn't think of anything.
