In Yang Fan's office, Duan Ze slammed his fist on the table and stood up abruptly: "What did you say?"
"Are they crazy? What reason does Country H have to demand their people?"
Yang Fan: "Don't be like that, let me finish what I have to say first."
"Go ahead and say it," Duan Ze said, clearly not in a good mood.
“Although people from H country have come, Nanxing’s household registration is here. Just because others say she’s from H country doesn’t mean she is. I’m only telling you this to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.”
"Let me warn you, the embassy is not someone we can negotiate with."
Duan Ze glanced at him sideways: "What nonsense are you spouting?"
“Nanxing has violated Chinese law, and she must be punished on Chinese soil.”
After saying that, Duan Ze stood up and walked straight outside.
Yang Fan: "Hey, why are they all so irritable?"
Yang Fan muttered to himself as he did so, tidying up his work notes as he thought about going to the embassy tomorrow to find out what was going on.
"Bang bang..." There was a knock on the door.
Yang Fan: "Please come in."
The sound of high heels clicking on the ground made Yang Fan realize it wasn't a colleague. When he looked up, he saw an old friend.
"Oh, Master Fang, you've returned to the country? Why didn't you tell me? I could have come to pick you up."
Fang Rou smiled faintly: "I've been back in China for a while now, but I'll be leaving again in a few days."
"I thought you were transferred back from Europe. I heard the international situation there isn't very good. Haven't you considered returning to China?"
Fang Rou sat down and said, "I haven't considered it. I'm back in China this time because I have several interviews with other countries."
After saying that, Fang Rou didn't say anything more. Although she had been away from China for many years, she still knew about Nan Xing's case. After all, Nan Xing was a big star who had been on the trending topics countless times.
Yang Fan: "Since that's the case, then Patriarch Fang, you wouldn't come here without a reason. Tell me, I'm all ears."
Fang Rou: "I just came to ask about the progress of the Nanxing case."
Yang Fan: "As you know, the embassy wants to take Nanxing away so she can go back to H country to serve her sentence, so it will definitely drag on for a while."
"But as Duan Ze said, she committed the crime on Chinese soil, so it won't be so easy to take it away."
Fang Rou is almost forty years old now. Her hair used to be short, but after growing it for a few years, it has reached her waist. Her face shows some signs of age, but when she lowers her eyes to think, the aura of a superior still makes Yang Fan sigh.
Fang Rou is indeed capable.
He admired her courage when she sold her family property and moved abroad with her family.
Now, many years have passed, and he still hears news about Fang Rou from time to time. The Fang family, a hopeless situation, was brought back to life by Fang Rou.
Fang Rou: "I know a little about international law, and I also have some connections at the H country embassy. They can't take Nanxing away. The most important thing now is the verdict."
"She will definitely appeal."
"Appealing ten thousand times will only lead to the same result."
As Fang Rou spoke, a cold glint unconsciously appeared in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
"Captain Yang, if you want to meet with someone from the embassy, I can act as an intermediary."
This was Fang Rou's true purpose.
She returned to China on a mission, but who knew she would run into this?
In short, there's still some time before we go back, so we can find something to do.
Yang Fan was just worried that no one knew the people there, and Fang Rou's arrival was a great help to him.
"That would be perfect. I'm currently presiding over this case, and I'm really overwhelmed with work. I can't wait to get it settled so I can relax a bit."
Shouldn't he go and sound out their opinion beforehand?
Fang Rou: "It was nothing."
After saying that, Fang Rou stood up and prepared to go to the embassy of Country H, where she happened to have a friend.
"Oh, by the way, don't tell Duan Ze that I'm back."
Yang Fan was taken aback, unsure of what to say.
Please.
Just as Fang Rou was about to leave, Yang Fan asked her a question.
Are you married?
Fang Rou's back stiffened slightly, but she still spoke honestly: "No, I've been too busy with work these past few years to meet anyone suitable."
Besides, although the direct line of the Fang family is gone, the collateral branches still exist. Her cousins have all had children, and she is also grooming the future heir of the Fang family. Whether she gets married or not is indeed not that important.
She simply wanted to make the Fang family prosper and cultivate more talent for the country during her lifetime.
She doesn't ask for anything else.
Besides, seeing that Duan Ze has a complete family and is living a happy life is enough.
If she had known back then that Nanxing's existence would almost cause the Duan family to fall apart, she would have taken action to kill Nanxing long ago and would never have let him live until now.
Yang Fan sighed: "Rou Rou, it's time to let go."
Fang Rou was taken aback. It had been a long time since anyone had called her that. They always addressed her as "Head of the Family" or used her work-related title.
"When have I ever stopped letting go?"
"Yang Fan, stop taking advantage of me. Your moaning is disgusting."
Yang Fan's face darkened: "..."
"Alright, alright, Patriarch Fang, is that enough?"
"I was actually quite unsure of myself, afraid that Nanxing had been arrested and that something else might have happened. But now that you're here, I feel much more at ease. Honestly, you're our benefactor."
"Director Yang, you've really risen through the ranks these past few years."
Yang Fan: "..." Why does it sound so sarcastic?
Stop flattering me, I'm leaving.
After saying that, Fang Rou turned and left, her steps graceful and elegant.
