The corners of Lu Manman’s lips turned cold. “Lawyer Wu, when is my father’s court hearing?”
“The Ministry of Public Security did not specify a time frame for the report, but it should be at least a month from now. However, during the hearing, it was made clear that Mr. Lu is not allowed to leave Wen City for any reason during this period of time and must be readily available. I suggest that Mr. Lu refrains from doing any diplomatic activities during this crucial period, including work,” Wu Jun said.
“That won’t do. I have to go to work,” Lu Zishan said directly. “Once I’m gone, the board of directors will definitely use all sorts of reasons to make things difficult for Manman. Without me around, it won’t be easy for you to have a foothold in the company.”
“Dad, don’t worry. Trust me. I won’t only help the company run its business, but I will also get you out of this lawsuit safely! I will make the Wen family regret this!” Lu Manman said confidently.
Lu Zishan looked at his daughter in disbelief. “You’re that confident?”
“Of course, because I know what the Wen family is planning!” Lu Manman said coldly.
Hence, she knew how to counter every move.
And Wen Yun had better not be so low as to fake his testimony.
Otherwise, this good move of his would be ruined by his hasty gains!
“Lawyer Wu, I’ll have to trouble you to monitor the progress of my dad’s investigation in the Public Security Bureau during this period of time and find loopholes in the law. If there’s no other option, we’ll have to fight it out in court. Of course, I’ll try my best to find evidence that’s good for my dad,” Lu Manman said. “I definitely believe that my dad wouldn’t do such a thing.”
With that, she glanced at Lu Zishan.
Lu Zishan smiled gently and felt comforted by his daughter’s affirmation.
“Yes, I will do my best to help Mr. Lu fight this case,” Wu Jun hurriedly said and then checked the time on his watch. “It’s not too late yet. I’ll go back to the law firm to prepare the documents. Please park the car. I’ll take a cab home myself.”
“Lawyer Wu, sorry to trouble you,” Lu Manman said as she looked toward the driver’s seat. “Qin Ao, stop the car.”
Qin Ao hurriedly stopped.
“Miss Lu, if you have any updates, please let me know so that I can prepare for court,” Wu Jun said as he opened the car door.
“I will.”
“Alright. Bye, Mr. Lu and Miss Lu.”
“Bye.”
The car slowly drove off.
Lu Manman looked back at Wu Jun and then at Lu Zishan. “Dad, is Lawyer Wu trustworthy?”
Lu Zishan smiled. “We can trust him in the past, but I can’t guarantee it this time. If the Wen family really wants to be ruthless, then everyone around us is worth suspecting.”
“I feel the same way.” Lu Manman smiled.
The older, the wiser.
Lu Zishan had not panicked since the incident. On the contrary, he appeared calm and composed. As the president of the Lu Firm, he had been through a lot over the years. As such, he was indeed a calm and stable man!
The car reached the Lu family’s house quickly.
Lu Manman, Lu Zishan, and Qin Ao entered the living room.
He Xiuwen was holding her cell phone, seemingly to be making a call. When she saw that they were back, she hurriedly put her cell phone down and hurried over. “Old Lu, what happened? Why were you called to the police station?”
“Mom, how did you know?”
“It’s all over the news.”
Lu Manman furrowed her brows and hurriedly took out her cell phone.
