Chapter 774: Mr. Nian is Pretty Nice to Miss Xu
An Lan said, “It’s said that Yi Jingxi is injured, and is in the hospital.”
Luosang replied with surprise, “Is he trying to buy time? The more time he has, the greater his chance of winning. His lawyer might use this time to find a breakthrough.”
An Lan shook her head and said, “I don’t think so. I’ve asked around. He seems to really have been injured pretty badly. His face is swollen, and his nose is broken. Some of his internal organs are injured as well. Strangely, he didn’t call the police.”
“That’s even weirder,” Luosang sneered, “I guess he injured himself. Otherwise, why didn’t he call the police? Perhaps he did something bad and offended someone. But, I don’t think he’s that kind of person who will bear an insult like this.”
An Lan shrugged and said, “Anyway, the courthouse has sent people to check on him as well. He can’t appear in court like that indeed. I’m afraid the trial is going to be postponed to the middle of this month.”
Luosang was visibly upset. “The longer we wait, the worse the situation will be for us, right?”
“Don’t worry, there will be a solution,” Nian Junting put an arm around her shoulders and comforted her. “If he’s trying to buy time, it means he’s not confident. He can use this time to search for a new breakthrough, and we can also try to collect more evidence.”
“Em,” Luosang nodded affirmatively.
“Since the trial will not begin for a bit, we should return to Xia City. We’ll come back before the trial starts,” An Lan suggested.
Nian Junting agreed with her. No matter how expensive the hotel suite could be and how expensive the food they provided was, it was not as clean as things at home.
So that afternoon, they packed their bags and headed to the airport.
The car parked at the entrance. Luosang got out of the car. Before entering the airport, she abruptly glanced back.
“What’s wrong?” Nian Junting asked, taking the luggage from the car.
“Nothing. I felt like someone was watching me.” Luosang noticed a black Benz which was parked a couple of yards away.
“Ah, you’re right. I was watching you just now,” Nian Junting grinned at her.
Luosang snorted, and perched on his large suitcase.
Nian Junting wheeled her into the airport.
An Lan clicked her tongue, and said, “After seeing how nice Mr. Nian is to Luosang, my requirements for my future boyfriend are going through the roof.”
Lu Kang smiled and shook his head. You haven’t seen how awful he can be, he thought. Even you would want to hit him.
Inside the Benz, Mo Jin quietly watched Luosang disappear from sight. Her chest heaved slightly. She wanted so badly to rush out of the car to introduce herself to her daughter. But if it happened so suddenly, Luosang might get scared.
“Ms. Mo, Mr. Nian seems to be really nice to Miss Xu,” Ivan the a.s.sistant smiled and added, “Also, he looks very handsome and manly. Miss Xu has great taste.”
“What do you know?” Mo Jin gave him a sharp glance, and said, “It’s difficult to see the true face of a man. Before I married Xu Zhengxuan, he was so nice to me that he nearly gave me his heart. In the end, he fell in love with another woman not long after we got married. My daughter is just like me. She has a poor taste in men, so she may get fooled by men easily. Yi Jingxi is the perfect example. I was unlucky. Back when I was with Xu Zhengxuan, I was an orphan. The Xu family people hurt me, and I could do nothing. I can’t let what happened to me happen to my daughter.”
“But for now, we haven’t found any bad thing about Mr. Nian,” said the a.s.sistant. “You see, he didn’t judge Miss. Xu because her father is in prison. On the contrary, he even helped Miss. Xu with the lawsuit, to try to save her father.”
“That’s what I don’t like about him,” Mo Jin snorted coldly, “Xu Zhengxuan is a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. He hurts women. He should spend the rest of his life in prison. Why would they release him? To hurt more young girls?”
