Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again -
Chapter 316: Lost All Face
Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Lost All Face
Yin Hehe requested to see a lawyer.
"I want to see my lawyer!" she shouted loudly in the detention center.
A lawyer?
Soon, the staff members of the detention center heard her; they came over and looked at her with a disdainful sneer.
"What lawyer do you want to see? You’ve already confessed on your own initiative, do you still need to see a lawyer?"
They said sarcastically.
Yin Hehe nodded, ignoring their expressions, "Of course, I need to. Even though I confessed on my own, what I will be charged with is not up to the police to decide!"
She reminded these people expressionlessly.
Suddenly, they felt this woman was being unreasonably troublesome and didn’t want to deal with her anymore.
Now that she was here, what charges could there be? How could it not be up to them?
They prepared to leave.
But at that moment, Yin Hehe raised her voice from behind them: "Do the police really want to cover the sky with one hand? Let me tell you, this case involves the four major families, and it is a criminal case. As soon as our family’s old general requests a hearing in the Supreme Court, you will have no say!"
"..."
"And by that time, the court will proactively ask the defendant to provide a lawyer. If I say you don’t agree now, what do you think the judge will say about you?"
Yin Hehe forcefully laid bare the plot these people were hatching with a threatening tone.
Indeed, due to the complexity of the case and the high-profile figures involved, these people wanted to muddy the waters from the beginning, trying not to offend anyone.
"That’s not what we mean. We just saw that you turned yourself in and thought you wouldn’t want a lawyer."
Seeing the situation turning unfavorable, they had to soften their stance.
But in fact, as they uttered these words, they too were taken aback, having not expected this woman to know so much.
Before long, the news that Yin Hehe wanted to see a lawyer reached the Xiahou Royal Mansion.
"A lawyer? Isn’t she a lawyer herself? Why would she need another lawyer?"
The old butler was very puzzled upon hearing this.
However, Xiahou Jingmu, who had just delivered someone to He’anli, pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"Is there a possibility that the person she wants to meet isn’t a lawyer at all?"
"What does Young Master Jingmu mean?" the old butler asked with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Not wanting to see a lawyer, could it be that girl wants to see the young master? How could that be? At this critical juncture, just after he’d sent the person away, if they brought him back to meet her, wouldn’t that cause a huge problem?
The old butler was quite frightened.
Fortunately, the person Xiahou Jingmu suggested she wanted to meet in the end was not him.
"I think she probably wants to meet the old grandfather. Being such an intelligent person, she likely has something to say to the old grandfather."
One had to admit, Xiahou Jingmu did have some brains.
The old butler then realized.
Immediately, he notified Xiahou Yi, who was outside. Upon receiving the call, Xiahou Yi immediately went to the Justice Bureau detention center.
Before long, Yin Hehe, who was waiting in the detention center, saw the old man finally arrive; she immediately asked: "Was it you who gave the two major departments of F Country to the Shen Family? Why? You knew his intention was to use this matter to blackmail you, so why did you fall for his trap?"
She was very agitated, bombarding him with questions like a machine gun as soon as they met.
Xiahou Yi’s eyes showed some annoyance; he probably didn’t expect that these matters had also reached here.
"This is my business, and you don’t need to worry about it!" he said bluntly.
Yin Hehe grew even angrier upon hearing this.
"What do you mean it’s your business? I’ve replaced you to come here, precisely to prevent that old geezer from succeeding, but look at you! Now that I’m here, you’re willing to hand over your possessions to others. Xiahou Yi, is this how you normally do things?"
She was actually schooling him, despite being a youngster!
Having heard her, Xiahou Yi, who had not been scolded by anyone in his decades of dominance, finally erupted in anger.
"Impudent! It’s not for you, you wretched girl. Do you think I would give anything to him?"
"..."
Yin Hehe’s mouth fell open, and all her fury got stuck deep in her throat.
This... turned out to be quite unexpected for her.
After a full 10 seconds of silence, Yin Hehe cleared her throat and said, "Actually, there’s no need to do that. I’ve already come in, but that Shen person might not be able to do anything to me!"
"What did you say?"
The old man’s eyes went round with surprise!
But Yin Hehe just smiled, "Yes, he wants to pin the crime on this case, but it won’t be so easy. Who can prove that it was Ayuan who kicked his daughter-in-law to death?"
"Hmph!" With a single word, the old man, who had been waiting for his answer, immediately snorted coldly.
"Did you think I hadn’t thought of that? I’ve already had someone investigate, and I’ve even performed an autopsy on that woman’s body. There was nothing to find."
"What?"
Now it was Yin Hehe’s turn to be surprised.
It seemed the old man was not just a brute; he did have some brains.
But just because his autopsy showed that, should they accept it as the truth?
Yin Hehe smiled again.
"General, who told you there was nothing? That woman’s death is very suspicious, isn’t it?"
"What?" Xiahou Yi was confused once more.
"Suspicious?"
"Yes, it’s very suspicious. Therefore, we should report this matter and it would be best to have the police station form a special task force to reinvestigate the entire matter."
Yin Hehe looked at the old man and casually suggested an idea to him.
This time, Xiahou Yi was truly baffled.
The forensic report clearly stated that the fatal injury was from the kick. What did this woman mean by bringing up such nonsense now?
Xiahou Yi sensed something was amiss.
"Are you deliberately doing this? What’s your goal then?"
"I don’t have any goal. I just want him to fall into disarray and eventually reveal his true face!"
Seeing that the old man was finally catching on, Yin Hehe toned down her expression and stopped hiding the truth from him.
"Actually, we all know that Ayuan couldn’t have been responsible for that woman’s death, but now your autopsy has confirmed that the fatal injury was from that kick. This means that Shen Weihuai had everything arranged from the start."
"So, if we want him to show his true face now, the only way is to upset his plan. Moreover, you have to make the incident as big as possible to force his hand and make him doubt that this is the truth; then his defenses will crumble!"
Yin Hehe laid out her carefully thought-out strategy to the old man, leaving him at a loss for words.
He had never considered such an approach.
This wretched girl really had a brain; he never figured that at his age, he would be outwitted by a little girl.
Xiahou Yi felt incredibly humiliated!
