Chapter 870: Anger
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Chen and Ye Cheng looked at each other silently.
In the end, Chen Chen could only say from the side, “Why don’t we go in first?”
Only then did Ye Cheng avert his gaze and said indifferently, “I heard that Dr. Song has already cut ties with the Ning family. What’s the matter? Are you unable to let go of your flesh and blood? I thought you’d wish for Ning Zhe’s early death.”
Ye Cheng did not bother to conceal his resentment.
Before Song Ning could reply, Mu Chen said, “Don’t use your own thoughts and personality to judge another person. Ye Cheng, we naturally won’t intervene if things proceed naturally. However, if someone abuses their power for personal gain, we won’t sit idly by. It’s unfair after all.”
Mu Chen’s words hit the nail on the head, stirring up Ye Cheng’s anger. He said angrily, “Don’t be so sanctimonious! Mu Chen, I hate hypocrites like you the most. Why are you talking about fairness with me? If the person lying in the ICU now is your father, what would you do? Judge others? I don’t care if you judge me. Go ahead and do it.”
Chen Chen held onto Ye Cheng tightly, not allowing Ye Cheng to rush up to Mu Chen.
On the other hand, Mu Chen moved to stand in front of Song Ning, shielding her. He looked at the furious Ye Cheng and said with a voice that carried a hint of pity, “Ye Cheng, it’s best for you to calm down. Your unchecked emotions won’t be beneficial to the situation at all. You should calmly think about why the matter escalated to this point. In the end, it’s still best to resolve the matter quietly.”
Ye Cheng scoffed and said icily, “Why did the matter escalate to this point? You have the guts to say this? If you had married Ye Xin back then, would things escalate to this point? Isn’t everything caused by you?”
Mu Chen and Song Ning were stunned by Ye Cheng’s words.
Even Chen Chen felt that Ye Cheng’s words were rather unreasonable. He hastily tugged Ye Cheng’s arm and said, “Young Master Cheng, let’s go in quickly.”
Chen Chen did not care about Mu Chen and his wife at this time. All he wanted to do was bring his boss away. He could not help but complain inwardly, ‘He didn’t even drink and woke up so early. Why is he speaking so much nonsense?’
Ye Cheng suppressed his anger and quickly walked into the chief of police’s office.
The chief of the police station was not surprised by Ye Cheng’s visit. He said a little anxiously, “Brother Cheng, the statement has been completed. Things are a little troublesome. I’m afraid we can’t delay it for too long. Do you have any other ideas?”
Ye Cheng looked at the statement with a sullen expression. Then, he threw the folder onto the desk and said angrily, “A retrial. The matter must be reinvestigated and retried! He said my father attacked him? Bullsh*t! He’s clearly trying to frame my father! He was the one who wanted to kill my father for money!”
The chief of the police station did not dare to make a sound.
Ye Cheng glared at the chief and said, “Interrogate him again! Don’t allow his lawyer in. Let me sit in! I don’t believe he won’t say anything incriminating!”
The chief looked troubled as he said, “Brother Cheng, that’s against the law. His lawyer is very capable. Ever since he arrived, he didn’t allow Ning Zhe to say a word. If you were to go in, I’m afraid it’d be disadvantageous to your case in the future. He’d be able to accuse us of abusing our power for personal gain. At that time, it’d be hard for us to explain ourselves. Brother Cheng, calm down. Please calm down.”
Ye Cheng said angrily, “How am I supposed to calm down? Tell me! How am I supposed to calm down? My father is in the ICU, and his fate is unknown! What about Ning Zhe? He’s accompanied by his lawyer, and his daughter and son-in-law are waiting for him outside. How could he be released on bail? I won’t allow it!”
The chief’s troubled expression remained on his face. With Ye Cheng’s anger now, whatever he said would be wrong. However, if he followed Ye Cheng’s wishes, he really would not be able to explain himself to the higher-ups. He still had his family and his subordinates to consider, after all. On the other hand, Ye Cheng would just brush the dust off his shoulder and return to his family to inherit the family business.
