“Luo Anning is not such a person,” said Rong Yan.
Greatly taken aback, Feng Churui immediately looked at him in amus.e.m.e.nt and asked, “What’s the matter? Are you concerned about Luo Anning?”
Rong Yan looked up and glanced at him while scrutinizing the doc.u.ments. Instead of answering his question, he said, “She’s my wife.”
“Yan, this is not your usual behavior,” Feng Churui said smilingly while shaking his head.
Rong Yan temporarily put down his doc.u.ments and glanced at his close friend with raised brows. “Oh? How am I supposed to behave then?”
Feng Churui did not laugh as he gazed at Rong Yan with knowing eyes. There were some things that need not be said.
He s.h.i.+fted his gaze onto the doc.u.ments before changing the subject. “This case is a little tricky. The First Lady happened to be visiting a friend in Qingxin Hospital in plainclothes when the incident took place. Ou Lixue plunged onto the ground at a spot that was not too far away from the First Lady. Hence, the First Lady insisted that investigations be conducted.”
Rong Yan said with a frown, “Luo Anning said that she didn’t push Ou Lixue. I believe her. However, all of the evidence is pointing towards her so I’m afraid that the police might charge her and we’ll have to fight this in court. Things will get trickier when that happens.”
There would be some scheduling time in between the filing for charges and the court trial. During the scheduling period, Luo Anning would have to be detained temporarily. That was something that Rong Yan did not wish to see.
His browsing speed increased continuously and Rong Yan finally slammed the doc.u.ment down onto the coffee table, after which he leaned back against the couch and said, “Rui, help me look after Luo Anning while I make a trip to the capital.”
“Are you planning to look for Old Mr. Jiang?”
“Yes. Like you said, this case is tricky because of the First Lady and we’re currently not even allowed to bail Luo Anning out. Hence, I have no choice but to look for Grampy.”
Old Mr. Jiang was Jiang Peihua’s father, Jiang Tianxiong, who was also Rong Yan’s maternal grandfather. While the Rong Family was the richest family in Asia, the Jiang Family was a family of politicians, just like the Feng Family.
The Jiang Family and the Feng Family were both involved in the military and hence could be considered to have a significant amount of power and authority.
Back then, Jiang Tianxiong did not approve of Jiang Peihua’s decision to marry Rong Yan’s father, and later on, even got extremely infuriated with Rong Yan’s father because of some matters. Ever since then, the two families have distanced themselves from each other.
Although he could not stand Rong Yan’s father, Jiang Tianxiong still doted on his outstanding grandson, Rong Yan.
The two of them would speak over the phone once every month and of course, he would do it secretly behind Old Mr. Rong’s and Jiang Peihua’s back.
Feng Churui patted Rong Yan on his shoulder and said supportively, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely hand down the instructions. I won’t let Luo Anning suffer.”

In Waterside Residences.
Luo Xinya who had been down and out for more than a month, sneered as soon as she saw the news reports. “Mother, hurry and look. Luo Anning has been arrested for murder. I bet she’s going to get a death sentence.”
Li Yulan was in the midst of applying a sheet of facial mask on her face. When she heard her daughter’s words, she immediately looked up and kept her eyes fixed on the computer screen, completely ignoring the fact that the mask was falling off of her face. She then clapped her hands together and laughed out loud. She turned around and hugged Luo Xinya agitatedly while saying, “Ah, my daughter, look, look, look, the person who caused you harm is now facing her retribution! You should be happy now. The most damage you’ve suffered is probably just the loss of your modeling job but that’s nothing much compared to Luo Anning whose life is now in danger. Hahahaha… ”
“Of course I’m happy. Once she gets a death sentence, I’ll definitely buy some firecrackers and set them off in the yard to celebrate!” Luo Xinya laughed maliciously as her eyes glistened.
