Shanghai Stock Exchange, Linghui Entertainment.

Liu Rulan crossed her arms and stared coldly at the large screen in front of her.

A few minutes later, she turned to Xiaozhou and asked, "Have you contacted the heads of the fan clubs? Ask them to issue announcements on their respective platforms to try to control the number of people at the event. If the number of people at the event becomes too out of control, end the event early. Safety is the priority."

"Okay, Sister Liu."

Xiao Zhou hurriedly tidied up the things in his hands.

Everyone else around her was also in a hurry, but Liu Rulan remained standing in place, continuing to assign tasks and making arrangements for any potential public opinion that might arise from this matter. Only after everything was arranged did she turn around and ask her assistant, "Has Attorney Zhang finished preparing?"

The legal assistant quickly nodded: "Okay, Sister Liu, the plane tickets are all bought, we should be leaving soon."

"good."

Liu Rulan glanced at the time on her wrist, her expression indifferent, turned around, picked up her bag, and hurriedly left the company.

...

At this moment, Xiao He had no idea that Liu Rulan was already preparing to attack.

The case has been transferred to the criminal police, and he has been staying at the police station for a long time, preparing to personally oversee the outcome of the case.

The main reason was that he didn't bring Lao Qi and Xiao Chen with him this time. He thought everyone could relax and there shouldn't be any problems.

Who would have thought he would encounter something like this!

Xiao He was furious just thinking about it; he felt like such a good day had been ruined by this kind of person.

After Xiao's mother drove back to put her things away, she also rushed over and brought Xiao He a lunchbox. Although Xiao's father did not come along, he was making phone calls to find acquaintances to take over the matter, especially to find a familiar lawyer to come to the police station to coordinate the follow-up work.

After a period of investigation, Officer Ma and another officer came over and talked to Xiao He about the current situation: "Niu Yuan's parents have just arrived. Now her mental state has suddenly become unstable. She said she wants to see you. Are you willing to see her?"

Officer Ma's expression remained dark from the beginning, his face was long and his brows were furrowed, indicating that he was quite angry about the incident.

Xiao He narrowed his eyes and sneered, "She was perfectly fine just now, in good spirits, and didn't seem sick at all! How come she's suddenly unwell after her parents arrived?"

Hilarious! Does he think he doesn't know whether this person is sick or not? Does he think he can use illness as a pretext for moral blackmail?

Sorry, he's not buying that anymore!

Almost immediately after he finished speaking, another woman's cold and harsh voice came from afar: "I don't care if she has mental problems or not, Xiao He will never see her again."

Xiao He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw Liu Rulan, which was both unexpected and not unexpected.

well.

Seeing this face here, Xiao He felt a pang of guilt and couldn't help but cover his face and sigh: "I already told you you didn't need to come. My dad and his family have connections here and know a lot of lawyers."

Anyone could handle this; there was no need for them to fly all the way here in such a rush.

Liu Rulan didn't say much, but stepped aside and said to Zhang, the lawyer beside her, "Zhang is more skilled at this type of case. Besides, that girl was already preparing to sue us, and now that she's caused this trouble, Zhang is the most suitable person to handle the joint case."

Zhang, the lawyer from Linghui Entertainment's legal department, gave Xiao He a confident smile: "Mr. Xiao, don't worry, I'm sure I can handle this matter well."

He was caught red-handed, with witnesses and physical evidence, plus the summons that had already been issued. How could he possibly lose this case?

Xiao He glanced at the confident Lawyer Zhang, then at Officer Ma whose expression wasn't so pleasant. For some reason, he had a feeling that this matter might not be so simple.

"Alright, you can contact them first and ask about the situation."

Xiao He was silent for a moment, then nodded.

A few minutes later, Zhang met with the lawyer that Niu Yuan's parents had found.

He stared at the mental certificate the other person had suddenly pulled out, fell silent, and then examined it with a hint of disbelief.

The documentation is complete, written by an authoritative hospital, and the date is recent; there are no issues whatsoever.

But, it wasn't like that before...

-

"How is that possible?"

Xiao He heard the lawyer's retelling and blurted it out subconsciously as well.

Attorney Zhang smiled wryly: "I suspect that they were already preparing when we were planning to sue them, but we didn't expect it to come in handy this time."

Upon meeting, the other party presented a clear diagnosis of "severe mental disorder," along with detailed inpatient medical records, discharge summaries, and medication records from a provincial-level tertiary specialist hospital—a very comprehensive certificate.

But here's the problem—

When selecting people, Xiao He paid special attention to their backgrounds and circumstances. He did not intend to make things difficult for his own people, especially those with high litigation difficulty. Therefore, he chose normal people who could basically bear criminal responsibility on their own, were able to take care of themselves, and had no mental problems.

Even during Zhang's investigation into the lawsuit, no mental health issues were found on the other party's part.

How could the other party produce such a detailed and clear mental health diagnosis certificate in just a few days?

And it's a fairly reputable hospital...

Xiao He's gaze fell on the name of the hospital.

He narrowed his eyes, turned around, took out his phone, and did a quick survey.

Goodness, how come this vice president's surname is also Niu?

Okay, okay, you guys are really amazing!

Xiao He was so angry he almost fell over, and immediately started fiddling with his phone.

Liu Rulan glanced at Xiao He, then turned to Zhang Lu: "It's alright, just go with your pace. In any case, we will investigate this matter to the end."

Moreover, in the face of such a serious criminal case, no matter what evidence she produces, she cannot escape punishment.

Fortunately, such situations are not uncommon. The experienced lawyer Zhang quickly adjusted his mindset and immediately changed his plan: "It's okay, we can apply for a judicial re-examination later. Right now, the most important thing is ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) to cooperate with the criminal police investigation."

"I can handle this."

He looked at Xiao He and Liu Rulan.

Liu Rulan always adhered to the principle of "if you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them," and readily nodded: "Okay, thank you, Attorney Zhang."

"Um."

Attorney Zhang glanced at Xiao He and saw that he was still looking down at his phone, so he didn't say anything and turned to contact the police.

Liu Rulan walked back to Xiao He's side and asked in a low voice, "Did your investigation go wrong?"

The selection of the candidates was made jointly by the group of them, so this problem shouldn't have occurred.

Xiao He twitched the corner of his mouth and said in the same way, "I don't remember that hospital having any problems. Niu Yuan's family is quite resourceful. It was a real miscalculation."

However, even if he knew they had a backup plan, he wouldn't let her go.

He's the kind of person who always likes to face challenges head-on.

Who's afraid of who?

"and you--"

"I won't handle the hospital matters myself; I'll find someone else to help."

Xiao He changed the subject, "We can't let her ruin our New Year's mood. Let's leave this to the lawyers and the police."

Moreover, the police here are on his side. Everyone is terrified that he did such a thing in such an important occasion.

He finally looked at Liu Rulan, his serious expression softening slightly. He scratched his head and apologized somewhat awkwardly, "Sorry to bother you again."

This caused Sister Liu to have to come and help him before the Spring Festival.

Liu Rulan patted Xiao He's shoulder nonchalantly: "It's alright. Teacher Bai just told me to come back for dinner when I have time. Come on, come on. I flew here and I'm still hungry. You should ask Teacher Bai to heat up the food."

Xiao He, feeling embarrassed, replied, "Okay."

Wait, how come you're so familiar with my mom like you're going straight home?!

Xiao He felt that if things continued like this, he would eventually have another godmother.
