Chapter 353: Chapter 256 - Evidence vs Balance (Third Update)_2

He wouldn’t admit that the reason he paid attention to him was that he saw him following his sister-in-law, so he spared him a glance and just happened to vaguely remember him.

He got up from his seat and guided Mu Lin to the reception area nearby, casually made a cup of tea for him. As for Hong Boyuan, that was more of an afterthought. This caused quite a shock for Hong Boyuan and demonstrated Mu Lin’s standing in the police station; after all, even if their own family patriarch were here, he would definitely not be afforded this much respect.

One truly needed to witness it oneself to understand. There was no inkling of superiority around Ren Laifeng when in front of Mu Lin, and he was by no means difficult to get along with, as the rumors suggested. Mu Lin’s identity continued to amaze people all the more.

Sitting diagonally across from Mu Lin, Ren Laifeng looked at him, "Sister-in-law, did you come to see me today due to the incident at midnight?"

"Yes." Mu Lin nodded, "I want to know what kind of evidence Jing Chen and the others delivered to you last night. Mo Yinfan would also like to know."

Without any hesitation, Ren Laifeng handed over the document bag next to him to Mu Lin, "Everything is here." It was fortunate that Mu Lin came over, which spared him the need of having to run another errand.

Mu Lin took it over casually and opened it without any reservations. Hong Boyuan wisely looked away. Ren Laifeng didn’t say anything, but he knew that it wasn’t his place to peek. He possessed this level of natural discernment.

Ren Laifeng gave Hong Boyuan a casual glance, then returned his eyes to Mu Lin, some deliberation in his expression, seemingly pondering the relationship between the two; or how the young master of the Hong Family came to know his sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, do you know what it means for Mr. Jing to hand this over to me?" He was somewhat confused, was this a sign for him to expose everything?

"They probably hope that you handle it impartially." Mu Lin calmly stated, "The people in here, I believe, have already been abandoned. Even if you prosecute them, no one would dare to trouble you; furthermore, if there’s any trouble, just let Mr. Jing handle it." Mu Lin made a teasing remark with a light smile; the matters that Mr. Jing deals with aren’t ones that just anyone could interfere with.

Upon hearing this, Ren Laifeng was horrified, "Sister-in-law, don’t scare me, I wouldn’t dare step on your turf." Isn’t this effectively a suicidal act? The person sitting in front of him now was the legendary Poison Doctor, known for his cold-blooded killings.

Mu Lin smiled at his exaggerated reaction and blinked, "You should know, I don’t mind."

"Sister-in-law, please stop scaring me." Ren Laifeng pulled a long face, his previously dignified expression disappeared in an instant. "I don’t have the guts."

Mu Lin raised an eyebrow, was she being teased?

She put away the material at hand and returned it to Ren Laifeng.

Actually, there weren’t any special items within, just information and proof about some people who covertly bribed assassins in the background, and that person who turned over the daily habits, schedule, and other related information about Mo Yinfan to that organization.

It was estimated that the reason he dared to commit such a blatant crime was that he had strong support from the shadows. It was a pity he probably didn’t know yet that he had already been abandoned; perhaps certain people above didn’t expect that the person involved this time would be Jing Chen, a man that most people would avoid offending.

They also didn’t forget that although the old Mr. Jing was almost no longer involved in the affairs, it didn’t mean that he no longer had the right to intervene. If things were really blown up to that extent, their own outcome would be tragic; compared to that time, abandoning one or two people is practically nothing.

Mu Lin could actually feel that this time, Jing Chen seemed to have intentionally shown mercy to those people, hence there were only such few pieces of mild evidence; after all, it’s best not to disrupt the balance, to avoid turning into a one-man show and adding more trouble; just like those old court affairs, in what way are they different from nowadays.

Perhaps even Jing Chen himself did not expect that although Mu Lin has always lived in the Black Forest, it does not mean she is oblivious to everything in the real world.

The former Mu Jue truly wholeheartedly cultivated Mu Lin...in all aspects.

On the side, seeing that Mu Lin and Ren Laifeng were done talking about the main topic, the look on Hong Boyuan’s face turned anxious. He wanted to plea for leniency from Ren Laifeng but was afraid that Mu Lin would be upset and think that he was using her. The predicament of the small model made both Mu Lin and Ren Laifeng glance at each other and smile.

He really couldn’t hide anything.

Unlike the fleeting previous few encounters, Ren Laifeng’s impression of the young master of the Hong family this time was a bit deeper.

His character seemed straightforward, yet he handled things with measured restraint, knowing what should be avoided and what he shouldn’t know; however, perhaps because of his straightforward personality, his bearings needed to gradually be refined; it was estimated that when he reaches the right age, he might change.

At this point Hong Boyuan absolutely couldn’t imagine that Ren Laifeng’s evaluation of him would be so high.

Mu Lin glanced at him lightly, then looked at Ren Laifeng, "In addition to this matter, I have another favor to ask you."

Ren Laifeng nodded, "Sister-in-law, just say it." He probably expected what it was.

Mu Lin chuckled lightly, gave a nod, knowing that he had guessed it, "Actually it’s the same petty matter as before;" It was indeed a small matter (except for Mr. Jing), "I remember..." Suddenly, she paused and looked towards Hong Boyuan, "How about you tell him yourself?"
