Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

Chapter 298

The police station corridor was dimly lit, casting a pale light on Yuriko's smudged makeup.

Her hands were cuffed, yet she still held her head high, her expensive high heels clicking sharply on the cold floor tiles.

"I am an international friend! I have diplomatic immunity!"

Her voice echoed in the empty corridor, shrill and hysterical.

"You have no right to judge me!"

The police officers escorted her expressionlessly, and one of the young officers couldn't help but frown.

"Madam, please cooperate with the investigation."

Yuriko abruptly shook off his hand.

"Do you know who I am? I'm the Asia Pacific President of the COCO Group! If you dare touch me, you'll receive a protest from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs tomorrow!"

Just then, the police station doors were pushed open, and a gust of cold wind rushed in.

Yan Xue and Liu Jinnian walked in.

"I am Yan Xue from the First Commander's Secretariat."

Yan Xue's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.

"I've come to bail out Ms. Yuriko."

The police officers looked at each other, and one of the older officers hesitated before speaking.

"This case involves drugs and unlawful detention, I'm afraid..."

Yan Xue smiled slightly and took a document out of her briefcase.

"This is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' application for a temporary exemption. Please review it."

The officer took the document, his brow furrowed.

Just as he was about to sign, a deep male voice came from the doorway.

"Yuriko cannot be released on bail."

Everyone turned around and saw Situ Qing, dressed in a black suit with a dark silver lawyer's badge on his collar, push open the door and walk in.

"Situ Qing?"

Yan Xue's pupils contracted slightly, and her fingers unconsciously tightened around her briefcase. She recognized Situ Qing; in her dream, he was clearly Liu Jinnian's personal lawyer, who had helped Liu Jinnian win countless cases.

But now, he's standing on the opposite side of Brother Jin Nian?

“Attorney Situ,”

Yan Xue suppressed her anger, but her voice still trembled slightly.

"Are you openly defying the orders of the top officer?"

Situ Qing didn't even glance at her, walked straight up to the police officer, and handed him several documents.

"This is a joint protest letter from the victims, as well as an exception to Article 37 of international law regarding diplomatic immunity, which states that when a crime involves a citizen of that country, the suspect must be tried under local law."

His voice was as calm as if he were stating a simple fact, yet it made Yan Xue's face turn deathly pale instantly.

Yuriko finally panicked and grabbed the iron railing tightly.

"I can't go to jail!"

Let me out!

I need to see my lawyer.

Liu Jinnian stood in the shadows, his gaze behind his gold-rimmed glasses unfathomable.

He had initially thought that as long as Yuriko was rescued, Shen Yunzhong would still have a chance to turn the tide. But now…

Situ Qing turned to Baihezi, his eyes as cold as if he were looking at a dead person.

"Of the male models you assaulted, three are Chinese citizens. So, diplomatic immunity?"

He chuckled lightly,

"not applicable."

Liu Jinnian silently pushed up his glasses, the cold light reflected from the lenses obscuring the emotions in his eyes.

As night fell, a dim yellow light shone from the crystal chandelier in the study of Yunhu Villa.

Shen Yunzhong was furious.

"Look at this! This is the fine son you've raised!"

He disgraced me, the acting chairman, in front of the whole world!

Madam Qin sat on the sofa, her dark green cheongsam making her appear dignified and majestic.

She slowly raised her eyes, her gaze shifting between Shen Yunzhong and Qin Shi and Yan Lan, who were standing at the door.

"Yun Chong,"

Her voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable power.

I'll only ask you one question—

The air in the study seemed to freeze.

"Did you conspire with Yuriko to frame Qin Shi?"

Shen Yunzhong's expression stiffened for a moment, but quickly, he revealed a look of deep remorse.

"Of course not! How could I do that? I'm his father!"

Madam Qin did not respond immediately, but instead looked at Yan Lan: "Lanlan, what do you say?"

Yan Lan supported her pregnant belly, her figure still standing tall and straight beneath her black suit dress.

She looked directly at Shen Yunzhong, her voice clear.

“Mother, the evidence is right in front of us.”

Shen Yunzhong suddenly pointed at her.

"You outsider! From the very first day you married into the Qin family, you've been scheming to drive a wedge between my father and me!"

"enough!"

Qin Shi suddenly spoke up, striding up to Shen Yunzhong, towering over him by about half a head.

"Shen Yunzhong, how long are you going to keep this up?"

Shen Yunzhong looked at Qin Shi.

"Qin Shi, do you think you've won?"

He took a step closer and lowered his voice.

"I haven't lost yet."

We'll see.

Outside the window, a bolt of lightning cleaved the night sky, illuminating Shen Yunzhong's ferocious face.

Thunder roared in, as if heaven was mocking this duel between father and son.

Madam Qin slowly stood up.

"Yun Chong, at tomorrow's board meeting, I will propose a new election for acting chairman."

Shen Yunzhong was struck dumb: "What did you say?"

“I said,” Madam Qin said, emphasizing each word.

"I need to convene a board meeting."

Outside the window, the rain finally began to fall.
