The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 819 - 319 that is Dean Huang, Chi Lu_2

"Bai Lian is suing her? Is a lawsuit really necessary for a car accident?" Dong Lao Ye, the old patriarch, also found it strange. He put down his teacup, shocked, "Is the Mu Family fighting internally now? Don’t leave just yet, ask your uncle first."

He was referring to Dong Xiaobai.

With Ren Wanxuan now showing her sharp edges, the Mu Family would surely need to protect her. Why would Bai Lian sue her?

Dong Xiaobai was also aware of this matter and recounted it from start to finish, "It’s a criminal case. Right now, we’re waiting for the trial to start. Mu Zhendong is finding her a defense lawyer, while Yining stands by Alian’s side. You all decide how to handle it."

The implication was that it was time to choose sides.

After thinking for a while, Dong Lao Ye said, "Xiao Chuan, I remember, have your mother find a lawyer."

Dong Chuan’s mother was an external member of the Jiang Family, and it was well known that the Jiang Family had a legal dream team.

This meant he had definitely decided on which side to align with.

Indeed, considering the leverage that Ren Wanxuan was showing now, anyone’s support would be valuable for the Dong Family to consider.

Hospital.

Ren Jiawei stood under the hospital building with an address she had gotten from Ren Qian.

She tilted her head slightly, looking up at the towering inpatient department.

After a long while, she gathered her shawl around her and went in, joining a crowd waiting for the elevator.

She didn’t go to find Xiaoqi first but instead sought out a doctor to inquire about his condition.

"Not good," the attending physician, upon hearing that she was Bai Lian’s aunt by marriage, told her the blunt truth, "He barely survived. If it hadn’t been for Director Gu’s help, he wouldn’t have made it through the resuscitation, and his leg will likely have serious..."

After the inquiry, she finally went to the ward.

Xiaoqi was in a private room.

Xiaowu had gone to take care of some troublemakers from the Luo Family, and now in Xiaoqi’s ward was Mao Kun, leisurely peeling an apple with a knife.

Upon seeing that the person knocking on the door was Ren Jiawei, he leaned against the door frame and turned his phone in his hand.

He naturally recognized her as a member of the Ren Family.

He didn’t let her in.

"I’m just here to see him," Ren Jiawei said, visibly tired. Her eyes fell behind Mao Kun, unable to clearly see who was lying on the hospital bed, "Don’t worry, I won’t say anything else."

After all, she was Bai Lian’s aunt by marriage. Mao Kun scrutinized Ren Jiawei thoroughly for a long while before stepping back to let her in.

Xiaoqi was lying in bed.

Xiaowu had set up a tablet above his head with an adjustable stand.

At the moment, the tablet was playing a documentary about the animal kingdom.

The episode was about wolves.

He was watching the animal kingdom with great interest.

As soon as Ren Jiawei walked in, she recognized that somewhat familiar face and paused for a second. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

She hadn’t expected the person before her to be the young kid she had previously met, the one whom she had a good impression of.

"Kid," Ren Jiawei’s voice choked up when she saw his pale face, and for a moment, she couldn’t utter any of the pleas she had intended to make, "I’m sorry."

When Xiaoqi heard her voice, his hands twitched slightly.

Then he calmly turned his head, meeting Ren Jiawei’s gaze.

Ren Jiawei’s eyes fell on Xiaoqi’s legs again, recalling what Bai Lian had said about the likelihood of serious sequelae.

She also remembered what Ren Qian had said before, that the boy was an orphan and hadn’t even completed his second year of junior high.

If they threw money at him, he would definitely compromise.

He hadn’t even finished his second year of junior high.

Ren Jiawei was emotionally overwhelmed, "I’m sorry."

She left a check for Xiaoqi, "Consider this a little gesture from your aunt."

Before Xiaoqi could respond, she immediately left the ward, catching her breath in heavy gasps against the wall outside the door, her mind replaying the doctor’s words.

Inside the ward.

Mao Kun looked at the closed ward door and approached Xiaoqi’s bedside, eyeing the left check, "500w? They really are rich."

He flicked the check, suddenly remembering, "If we accept this, won’t they accuse us of extortion?"

Mao Kun had talked with Zhang Shize a few times and had been led astray.

"Give it to sister," Xiaoqi shifted his gaze back to the animal kingdom.

"Okay," Mao Kun nodded, reached out, and placed the flowers brought by Ren Jiawei at Xiaoqi’s bedside, "This aunt is much better than that old man Ren, she’s quite reasonable, and quite nice too."

Xiaoqi kept watching the TV, and after a long while, he let out a soft "hmm."

In the end, Ren Wanxuan’s case was classified as a criminal one.

The trial would be held in Yunxiao District Court.

Mu Zhendong hadn’t signed the metal trade contract yet due to delays caused by Ren Wanxuan; these past few days, he had pulled many strings for her.

Xia Yun hadn’t provided any responses yet, which surprised Mu Zhendong, but he didn’t have time to get to the bottom of it.

The court summons had already been issued.

He stood up from the chair in the rest area with Dong Chuan and raised his hand, "Lawyer Song, thank you for your trouble."

"No problem," Song Xi also stood, shaking hands with Mu Zhendong, "As long as there is no motive, you shouldn’t worry too much about this lawsuit. At most, it will result in humanitarian compensation."
