Chapter 406 Ruan Qi has no money and no status
At this time, in a detention center in the imperial capital.
Dong Qicheng was handcuffed and sitting on a cold chair with a haggard face.
Compared to his usual high spirits, he was in a very miserable state at this moment.
The expensive haute couture clothes were replaced with the uniform of the detention center. His face was pale and his eyes were dark because he had not slept all night. His hair, which was usually meticulously groomed, was now a mess.
Squeak——
The door of the detention room was suddenly opened from the outside.
A policeman walked in with a man in a suit.
"Second Young Master." the man shouted.
When Dong Qicheng heard the voice, he quickly raised his head and struggled to get up.
The policeman standing by and guarding immediately stretched out his baton.
"What are you fidgeting about? Sit down!"
Dong Qicheng has had smooth sailing since he was born. He is praised wherever he goes. Even many dignitaries have to give him some respect for the Dong family.
But now, a young policeman in the detention center dared to yell at him.
Dong Qicheng's anger, which had been suppressed for most of the day, suddenly surged up.
He turned around with a gloomy face, glared at the policeman and was about to curse.
But just as he uttered a word of the classic Chinese curse, the man in a suit who had just walked into the detention room interrupted him hastily.
"Second Young Master, don't be impulsive!"
Dong Qicheng's curse words were suddenly stuck.
He turned his head and looked at the man in the suit with a puzzled look in his eyes.
The man in the suit winked at him, then pulled out a chair and sat down.
Dong Qicheng had no choice but to control his temper and sit back in his seat.
The detention room became quiet again, and the police officer in charge of guarding it retreated to the corner and stood there again.
Dong Qicheng looked at the man in a suit who was sitting across the table from him, tapped the table with his finger in frustration, and asked impatiently, "Lawyer Zhang, when can you get me out? This shabby place stinks, it's not a place for people to live!"
When Zhang Lu heard this, he looked at him with a complicated expression.
"Second Young Master, you may not be able to leave in the short term."
Dong Qicheng's fingers, which had been tapping on the table, suddenly stopped.
He looked up in disbelief, "What did you say?! I can't get out?! Zhang Mingfan, are you kidding me?!"
"Second Young Master, you'd better calm down now." Lawyer Zhang's face was very serious. "The person who exposed you has collected a lot of evidence, and the police have received it. The situation is very unfavorable to you now. The evidence they provided is very sufficient. If nothing unexpected happens, you will probably be convicted."
When Dong Qicheng heard this, his head suddenly buzzed.
No one knows better than he does how serious his actions are legally. If he is convicted, he will face a life sentence.
When Dong Qicheng thought about spending more than ten or twenty years in prison, his clothes were instantly soaked with cold sweat.
He grabbed the edge of the table and said to Lawyer Zhang in panic, "Hurry up and find a solution for me! I can't go to jail. I'm a member of the Dong family, how can I go to jail! Yes, Dong family, go find the person in charge of the relevant department and mention the Dong family to him. No one dares to mess with the Dong family!"
In Dong Qicheng's mind, the Dong family represented power. No matter how big a mess he made, as long as he brought up the Dong family's name, he could get away with it.
But this time, he was destined to be disappointed.
Lawyer Zhang slowly shook his head. "Second Young Master, it's useless. The higher-ups have set up a special task force to thoroughly investigate the Dong family. This time, no matter who we bring up as a suspect, it won't work. All we can do now is try to reduce your sentence in court..."
"I don't want a reduced sentence!!!" Lawyer Zhang was rudely interrupted by Dong Qicheng before he could finish his words.
He collapsed, clutching the table and yelling at the top of his lungs, "I want to get out! Can you understand me? I want to get out! I don't want to go to jail! The Dong family didn't raise you for so many years just to get you to commute my sentence!!!"
Dong Qicheng's emotions were a little out of control, and he looked a little crazy.
Seeing this, the policeman standing in the corner immediately stepped forward, stretched out his big hand and pressed him down on the chair.
"Sit still and don't make any noise!"
Dong Qicheng, whose emotions were somewhat out of control, struggled to resist.
The police immediately pulled out their electric batons and swung them on his shoulders.
Dong Qicheng, who usually only knew how to drink and play with women, could not bear this blow. His face turned pale with pain and he collapsed on the table.
"Second Young Master!" Lawyer Zhang called out anxiously.
Dong Qicheng was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, and he was gasping for breath like a dying pig.
Lawyer Zhang's face turned cold, and he habitually wanted to use the posture of the Dong family's chief lawyer to condemn the policeman. But just as the words came to his mouth, he remembered the current situation of the Dong family.
Even Dong Wei can't protect himself, so what qualifications does a small lawyer like him have to rely on the power of others to bully others?
Lawyer Zhang pursed his lips, and his words of condemnation of the police turned into an apology.
"Sorry, police officer, the second young master is a bit impulsive. He didn't mean it."
The policeman was not moved by Lawyer Zhang's apology.
He released the hand that was pressing on Dong Qicheng and said expressionlessly, "Visit time is still ten minutes away. Speak nicely, or I'll take him back now!"
Lawyer Zhang quickly thanked him.
Then, he pulled his chair forward, leaned his upper body onto the table, and lowered his voice to Dong Qicheng, "Second Young Master, the Dong family's situation isn't good right now. You must be patient in there. I'll try to reduce your sentence, and if I can afford it, I'll do it. As for the police, don't admit anything they ask you. I'll handle the rest."
Dong Qicheng slumped on the table without saying a word.
Lawyer Zhang looked at his hopeless appearance and felt a little helpless. He pushed his glasses and suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Second Young Master, do you know Ruan Qi?"
Dong Qicheng turned his head with difficulty, "Ruan Qi?"
"Yes. It's Ruan Qi from the entertainment industry. Do you know him, Second Young Master?"
Dong Qicheng uttered a weak "hmm".
"She's just a little star, pretty, what's wrong?"
“…”
After hearing Dong Qicheng's evaluation of Ruan Qi, Lawyer Zhang's expression was a little indescribable.
He glanced at Dong Qicheng and said in a complicated tone, "Second Young Master, the Dong family's affairs might have been caused by Ruan Qi."
“????”
Dong Qicheng looked up in disbelief. "What did you say?! Who came up with this?!"
Lawyer Zhang: "Ruan Qi."
"That's impossible!" Dong Qicheng immediately denied loudly, "Ruan Qi is just a small-time celebrity, at best she has some other skills. But she has no money and no status, how could she possibly manage the Dong family?!"
“…”
Lawyer Zhang suddenly felt despair towards the second son of the Dong family.
No money, no status? Little star?
A distinguished consultant to the Cyber Security Center of China, a distinguished professor at the Imperial University, and a world-renowned talented pianist, you call this having no money and no status?
How can you be so shameless as to be a second-generation rich kid who is almost thirty years old and still living off your parents?
