Gu Nianqiang only regretted that she hadn't been ruthless enough to let this woman live, and now she had let her take away everything that could have been hers.
Of course, Du Yi couldn't know these thoughts. Gu Nianqiang could only stay by her side by hiding her sharpness.
Jiang Yilai took her child to see a pediatrician, and fortunately the situation was not serious. She got some medicine and went home.
In the car, Jiang Wenxi leaned against her mother's chest and whispered, "Mom, is that medicine very bitter?"
"Most children's medicine is sweet, but some medicines are a little bitter. I've told you before, good medicine tastes bitter, and you'll get better after taking the medicine."
Fu Nanxiao gently held her little hand and said, "Daddy has prepared some candy for you. You can eat it after you finish your medicine."
Jiang Wenxi smiled sweetly and said, "It feels so good to have my parents by my side when I'm sick."
"You silly child, you must feel so uncomfortable when you're sick. You must stay healthy. Your father and I will always be by your side," Jiang Yilai said, tenderly stroking her face.
Jiang Wenxi snuggled against her mother, wanting to stay by her side.
After returning home, Jiang Yilai gave the child her medicine. Just as she was about to take the child to rest because she was sleepy, the phone rang again.
Upon seeing Sun Yufei's number, she winked at Fu Nanxiao, signaling him to go outside with the child and answer the call herself.
"What's wrong, Yufei?"
"How is Xixi doing? Is she feeling better?"
Jiang Yilai could tell from her anxious tone that something had happened.
"She's much better. She just took her medicine and is about to rest. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"It's not that I have something to do, but it's about Luo Chen."
"What's wrong with him?"
“His sister passed away yesterday. They had found a suspect, but today they said that Brother Chen fabricated evidence and abused his power. He has now been summoned by the police station for questioning.”
Jiang Yilai was confused, and Sun Yufei anxiously said, "In short, I don't really understand these things either. You are familiar with the law, so could you go to the police station and take a look for me?"
"Don't worry, I'm coming right now. If there's anything I can help with, I'll definitely step in."
"Lai Lai, I'm really sorry. You should have been by Xi Xi's side to take care of her when she was sick, but I can't find anyone else to help me besides you."
"Don't say such nonsense. Nan Xiao is at home with her. You are my best friend, and Officer Luo has helped her many times. I certainly won't let this happen."
"Then I'll leave it to you. Please let me know immediately if anything happens."
Jiang Yilai comforted her for a few words and then hung up. Although she hadn't heard the conversation very clearly, she had roughly understood its meaning.
Although I didn't spend much time with Luo Chen, I saw his integrity and decisiveness through his character and conduct, and he would never knowingly break the law.
After saying goodbye to Fu Nanxiao, Jiang Yilai rushed to the police station.
However, when Jiang Yilai arrived, she learned that Luo Chen's condition was quite serious and he was under guard, with no outsiders allowed to see him.
Fortunately, Jiang Yilai's role as a defense lawyer gave her the opportunity to meet Luo Chen.
Luo Chen was detained in the guard cell, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw Jiang Yilai.
However, things quickly returned to normal, since Sun Yufei knew about this and it would surely reach her ears soon.
Jiang Yilai saw that his expression was indifferent, but his eyes revealed sadness.
Jiang Yilai knew how painful it was to lose a loved one, but she was curious how someone as shrewd as him could make such mistakes.
"Officer Luo, I'm here to be your defense lawyer."
