Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Scolding Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Scolding Gu Min wiped away her tears defiantly, wanting to say sothing more.
Qi Guowei, who had been quietly enduring the scolding, caught a glimpse of her small gesture and finally spoke up, “Stop talking.”
Gu Min’s eyes widened. She didn’t dare to quarrel with Qi Guowen but did dare to lash out at Qi Guowei, “Why are you being harsh with now? Qi Guowei, you really think you’re sothing! If you’re so capable, don’t snap at here—figure out a way to get your son out! If your son ends up with the reputation of a murderer, I’d like to see how you can face anyone!”
Qi Guowen couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
Qi Guowei’s face flushed. He, who had never dared to speak harshly to Gu Min, took a deep breath and for once said with conviction, “We were both wrong in this matter, and it’s no one else’s fault. It’s us who should be ashad! What’s more, now is not the ti to argue. Chang Hong made a mistake, and that’s that. What we need to do now is find a lawyer. What good does it do to make a scene here?”
Gu Min was speechless.
Turning his head, Qi Guowei braced himself and said, “Big brother, I know we are at fault, and as the younger brother, I’m powerless, you know that. I… I really don’t know what to do. Could you please help Chang Hong hire a lawyer? I know Chang Hong is in the wrong, but after all, I’m his dad, I… I still want to help him.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Guowen stared intently at Qi Guowei. After a mont, he patted Qi Guowei’s shoulder and said with relief, “That’s right. You don’t have to say it, as his uncle, I couldn’t just stand by idly. I will find the best lawyer to try to get Chang Hong a lighter sentence, but it still has to be within the bounds of the law. You two should also drop any thoughts of using other ans to get him acquitted, and don’t go troubling the abbot any further. Now that it has co to this, even the abbot can’t help, right?”
Qi Guowei nodded, “I know, big brother, don’t worry, we won’t do anything rash.”
Gu Min’s hand, resting on the sofa, clenched quietly.
But she ultimately said nothing.
At this point, the best outco would be for Qi Changhong to receive a lighter sentence.
Once they cald down, everyone knew that Qi Guowen was making sense.
Murder was a fact, and no one could turn back ti and undo what had been done.
Now, they could only try to salvage the situation as best they could.
Though Qi Guowen didn’t like the couple, he still tried his best to contact a well-known local lawyer to handle the case.
Together, Gu Min, Qi Guowei, and Qi Guowen, accompanied by the lawyer, rushed to the police station.
Inside the interrogation room, upon seeing Gu Min and the others, Qi Changhong couldn’t help crying, his face flushed with agitation, “Mom, Dad, I really didn’t an to kill anyone. You have to save , you must save !”
Qi Changhong, having been trapped in the police station all night surrounded by the stench of sour liquor, looked haggard.
Gu Min felt so heartbroken that she wanted to cry.
But before she could speak, Qi Guowen cut in front of her, “Chang Hong, do you realize your mistake now?”
Qi Changhong’s face was blank.
It seed he hadn’t expected Qi Guowen to start with that.
Qi Guowen stared at him, his voice cold, “Do you rember what the abbot told you yesterday?”
Qi Changhong understood what Qi Guowen ant; he had thought of Jiangli’s words long ago but had no ti to reflect on them fully.
At the ntion, his mind imdiately beca chaotic.
Qi Guowen continued, “He kindly warned you, but what did you do? You’ve always been rash in speaking and acting, never knowing how to talk properly with anyone! If you had just listened to the abbot yesterday, would anything have happened? All you’ve ever known is to be headstrong, your temper always gets the best of you, never knowing how to hold back. Now that you’ve caused trouble, are you happy?”
