Chapter 635 Top Lawyer Zhou Ran

Chapter 635 Top Lawyer Zhou Ran

"Go ahead and get busy." Yu Peiyun didn't try to stop him. "Once you're done with this period, I hope everything will be back to normal."

"Yes, I will." Qin Luofeng nodded.

After he left.

Yu Peiyun also returned to the living room.

As soon as she entered, she saw Qin Muchuan coming downstairs with a somber expression, followed by the butler, who looked guilty. He greeted her, "Madam."

Yu Peiyun nodded slightly.

The butler then said to Qin Muchuan, "Then I'll head back now."

Qin Muchuan waved his hand impatiently.

The butler left immediately.

Seeing this, Yu Peiyun knew something must have happened, so she asked Qin Muchuan, "What's wrong?"

Qin Muchuan recounted what had happened upstairs.

He looked very unwell while speaking.

In the end, he even cursed, "This unfilial son is infuriating! He doesn't respect me, the head of the family, at all. Does he really think this is the Qin Group that he manages? He can fire people whenever he wants."

“He probably didn’t realize what was happening for a moment, so he just wanted to help you solve the problem.” Following Qin Luofeng’s advice, Yu Peiyun tried her best to downplay her opinion of Qin Mo.

"These are all excuses. If you ask me, he just thinks the Qin family belongs to him and he can call the shots." Qin Muchuan's chest heaved with anger, feeling that he was just unlucky. "If this were done by the old man's butler, would he dare to fire him directly?"

Yu Peiyun thought for a moment.

He didn't speak.

Given how much Qin Mo cares about the old man, it's impossible for him to resign directly.

I will most likely discuss it with the old man first and ask for his opinion.

Looking at it this way...

Qin Mo doesn't seem to have much respect for Mu Chuan.

"Where is Luo Feng?" Qin Muchuan could only rely on his son now.

“He went back to work, saying the case needed to be handled in detail,” Yu Peiyun explained.

Qin Muchuan hesitated, then said nothing.

Looking at him, Yu Peiyun thought of what Qin Luofeng had talked to her about, and the words of advice just slipped out: "Actually, what Qin Mo said today wasn't unreasonable."

Qin Muchuan: "What did you say?"

Yu Peiyun observed his expression and slowly said, "Go apologize to Qin An, and tell her..."

"Apologize?!" Qin Muchuan's voice suddenly rose, and his face instantly turned pale. "Even if I rot in jail, I would never apologize to her. Why should I apologize to her? What did I do wrong?"

Everyone looks out for themselves; otherwise, they'll be condemned by heaven and earth.

If he doesn't take precautions, Qin An might come back and steal his things no sooner than a few years after leaving Haicheng.

How could they have such a good life now?

How could they have enjoyed such a glorious career for so many years?

“I’m not asking you to actually apologize to her.” Yu Peiyun patted his chest to calm him down. “I just want you to put on a show for the letter of forgiveness. Once the case is over, it’s up to you to decide what you want to do.”

"Impossible." Qin Muchuan's reaction was exactly what she had expected.

"What if Qin Mo has no other choice, and you and Luo Feng are sentenced to more than ten years?" Yu Peiyun asked.

Qin Muchuan frowned slightly.

Yu Peiyun: "It's not even certain whether the Qin family will still be in our hands in a dozen years."

"That can't be said!" Qin Muchuan remained firm, but he was thinking about the matter in his heart. "At worst, I'll admit to all the crimes and say that Luo Feng was acting on my orders. With Qin Mo's help, he should be fine."

These words were spoken.

Yu Peiyun paused.

She knew how much Qin Muchuan loved power, and how much he cared about face and interests.

But he actually said that.

"But there's a condition: he must protect the Qin family for me," Qin Muchuan said. "The position of head of the Qin family can only be his or Qin Mo's, and absolutely cannot be Jiang Ruan or Qin An's."

“You…” Yu Peiyun suddenly didn’t know what to say.

“However, this is the worst-case scenario.” Qin Muchuan didn’t think it would be that bad, and he knew nothing about the evidence. “As long as Qin Mo doesn’t deliberately favor Qin An, Luo Feng and I will be fine.”

Seeing him like this, Yu Peiyun didn't try to persuade him any further.

It was late at night.

She sent Qin Muchuan's words to Qin Luofeng.

[Your father refuses to apologize to Qin An, and even said that if things really come to that, he will admit to all the crimes and clear your name.]

Qin Luofeng paused upon seeing the message.

He had always felt that his father was more concerned with profit, and that family was just a spice in his life. The reason he was treated differently by his father was simply because he was "in cahoots" with him.

But now...

He suppressed his turbulent emotions and typed a few words: "I'll do my best alongside you, brother."

He was destined to have a bad night's rest.

So much so that when he got up the next day to go to Jiang Ruan, he was somewhat out of sorts.

Qin Mo, who was in the same car as him, noticed his less-than-ideal complexion and offered a brief expression of concern: "If you haven't rested well, go this afternoon. There's no rush of these two or three hours."

"Brother," Qin Luofeng said.

Qin Mo glanced sideways.

Qin Luofeng looked at him, her eyes serious: "Can you do your best?"

Qin Mo paused, then replied, "I'm doing my best."

"What I mean is to do everything I can to help your brother and father." Qin Luofeng rarely talked to him like this.

Qin Mo stopped looking at the information on the tablet.

His first words were a simple: "What happened?"

"Mom told me last night that if there's still no other way, Dad plans to take the blame himself and clear my name." Even after reading the message several times, Qin Luofeng's heart was still filled with mixed emotions.

Qin Mo's dark, aloof eyes paused for a moment before he commented, "It's quite surprising that he made this decision."

Qin Luofeng was about to speak.

Qin Mo's next sentence came: "But it was all in vain."

Qin Luofeng: "Why?"

"With your intelligence, you shouldn't have asked that question." Qin Mo glanced at him sideways. "Dad couldn't have taken the blame himself from the beginning. By the time he wanted to, the evidence had already been established and the conviction had been handed down."

At that time.

Even if he claims to have done everything, it doesn't really matter.

"But he didn't think about any of that when he said that." Qin Luofeng understood. "If it really came to a last resort, he genuinely hoped that I would be alright."

"Yes, so I didn't deny his actions, I just said it was futile." Qin Mo remained calm.

Qin Luofeng felt depressed and conflicted.

Qin Mo's words continued: "I will do my best to help you, but you must tell me what I need truthfully, otherwise things will become very complicated."

Qin Luofeng: "Okay."

The two are chatting.

The car was getting closer and closer to Jiang Ruan's house.

At this moment, Jiang Ruan is receiving distinguished guests at home, including Zhou Ran, a top criminal lawyer.

"Hello, Director Jiang, I am Zhou Ran, a lawyer." Zhou Ran sat opposite Jiang Ruan, wearing a well-tailored suit and a pair of thin-rimmed black glasses, looking like an elite gentleman. "Please forgive my intrusion."

"A guest is a guest," Jiang Ruan said politely. "May I ask what business Attorney Zhou has with me?"

She had heard of Zhou Ran.

A top-tier criminal lawyer, a leader in the field.

In his early years, many people sought his help, and later he was taken in by Huo Zhizhou as a member of his private legal team.

Was his arrival an accident, or a deliberate arrangement?
