Chapter 668 Resolutely No Reconciliation
Lin Yuyao took a few bites and said, "Why do I feel like they've changed their chef?"
Fu Huaiyi: "..."
"Ah, oh yes, we recently hired a new chef."
"Right, I felt the taste was a bit different from before. This flavor is a bit like... a bit like your chef."
Fu Huaiyi: "Huh? This... no way?"
"Really, spicy food is a bit dry and spicy, that's the flavor you get in your hometown."
"So you like it, right?"
"It's alright, I'm not a picky eater."
Fu Huaiyi smiled and simply told him everything.
"Actually, he's just our family's cook."
Lin Yuyao was taken aback.
“Recently, we ordered three meals a day directly from the restaurant owned by my uncle’s family. After my aunt found out, she told my grandfather directly. My grandfather waved his hand and arranged for the family’s chef to be our private chef at the restaurant. He is only responsible for cooking for the two of us and sleeps in the hotel upstairs at night.”
Lin Yuyao was astonished, "This...is so troublesome?"
“Grandpa originally wanted him to stay at our house, but then he thought that it would be inconvenient for a big-headed, strange man like him, so he arranged for him to stay at a restaurant.”
Lin Yuyao was both amused and exasperated. "Grandpa is really..."
"Ok?"
"No, Grandpa's arrangements are quite good."
She had seen the cook before; he was indeed a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears. How could they let him live in their house?
This arrangement is perfect—it puts Grandpa at ease and allows them to enjoy meals prepared by their own chef.
"Oh, right, I saw Tang Xiaofen at the door just now. She said she would stay and be a witness, and she has already been to the police station."
"Really? That's a good thing."
"Do you know when the trial will be held?"
"The 10th of next month."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"Isn't that my due date? Couldn't it be two days earlier?"
Fu Huaiyi was both amused and exasperated, saying, "What are you saying? If you had gone to see a doctor a couple of days earlier, you would have been in the hospital to prepare for childbirth anyway."
"Two nights or two are fine too."
"You'll be in postpartum confinement a couple of days later, what are you thinking?"
Lin Yuyao: "..." It's really frustrating not being able to get a piece of this big melon.
“It’s okay. I’ll be with you when you give birth. Let Yi Yunshuo go see the baby, and then have him tell us what he thinks.”
Well, Yi Yunshuo got to enjoy the gossip that he couldn't have.
"Where should the case be heard? Will it be handled by a military court?"
"No need. The defendants are Fang Qing and Wang Jianguo, not military personnel. It can be resolved in the civil court here."
Everyone was waiting for the day the trial would begin; it seemed like everything was almost over.
Wang Jianguo's parents also received the news.
The evidence is complete, especially after Wang Zhong and Jiang Mei talked, they knew that what happened between them was true, and they understood that it was all over for them.
They went to find Fu Huaiyi, but Fu Huaiyi brushed them off, telling them that the judgment of this matter depended on Lu Jiangting, and no outsider could make the decision.
So they went to find Lu Jiangting again.
Lu Jiangting's house is on the first floor, which was originally for convenience.
His father is in poor health, so it's convenient for them to push him out to sunbathe and take walks.
There's a piece of land in front of the house that belongs to them. Mom even said that Fang Qing should plant vegetables there so they can save on vegetable costs later.
All those benefits were wasted; now it's all trouble.
Wang Jianguo's parents harassed him every day, dragging their two children to kneel before him and begging him to let Wang Jianguo go.
They brought up Wang Jianjun as an example.
“I only have two sons. My eldest son died, and I was half dead. Now my youngest son is gone too. How are you going to live? Huh? You're such a jinx! You've ruined both of my sons!”
Lu Jiangting had already packed his clothes and personal belongings. He decided to move to the military dormitory and didn't want to stay here anymore.
"I wasn't the one who harmed them, it was Fang Qing. Why don't you go and settle accounts with Fang Qing?"
“Well… Fang Qing is locked up, I can’t find her even if I want to. I have to write an application to see her. At this point, let’s not talk about who’s right and who’s wrong, it’s pointless. Just have pity on this old man, and ask them to release my son. Once he’s out, you can beat him, scold him, do whatever you want.”
"No need. Hitting or scolding him would only dirty my hands. I'm not going to let them go, and nothing you say will make a difference."
"Are you... are you trying to drive our whole family to our deaths? Do you want us to kill ourselves here before you'll let him go?"
Lu Jiangting coldly replied, "Even if you kill yourself by crashing your head into a wall, I will not let him go."
After saying that, he unlocked the bicycle and prepared to ride away.
At this moment, Jiang Mei gave Wang Chenchen a wink and nudged him from behind, urging him to hurry up and propose marriage.
Wang Chenchen was forced into this situation and pushed in front of Lu Jiangting.
He clung to the handlebars and knelt before Lu Jiangting. "Uncle Lu, please, please let my mother go. It was my uncle who did wrong. Just have them arrest my uncle and let my mother go."
old married couple:"……"
Wang Zhong and others approached Jiang Mei.
Jiang Mei was extremely anxious. "No, I told him to say let Jianguo go. I didn't teach my child like that."
Lu Jiangting looked down at Wang Chenchen on the ground.
"Oh, why do you say that?"
"Because...because of what I heard. They thought I was asleep, but they woke me up every time. My uncle always came to our house in the middle of the night, straddled my mother, and beat and scolded her..."
Unable to bear it any longer, Jiang Mei stepped forward and covered Wang Chenchen's mouth with her hand.
Little darling, what are you saying?
"Hehe." Lu Jiangting chuckled sarcastically, and taking advantage of the lull, he rode off on his bike.
Two legs can't catch up with two wheels, and no matter how much they shout, it's no use.
The two wanted to wait for Lu Jiangting to return, but they didn't see him even when it got dark.
They waited for several more days, but still didn't see Lu Jiangting.
So they went to ask Fu Huaiyi about the situation. Fu Huaiyi told them, "Lu Jiangting is currently living in the military dormitory. I don't think he intends to move back in."
Living in military dormitories?
They couldn't get in, and they panicked completely.
"Then what should we do now?"
"Didn't you say it's all Fang Qing's fault for seducing Jianguo? Then hire a good lawyer, tell the lawyer the facts, and let the lawyer come up with a solution."
"Huh? Will this... work?"
"You all say that Jianguo is innocent, right? As long as the lawyer can prove that he is really innocent, he will be released without charge."
The two of them: "..." What a load of rubbish.
"Talk to a lawyer, they are professionals, I really don't know anything about this."
Having said all that, and seeing that he was getting impatient, the two had no choice but to give up and leave disappointed.
The two were very uneasy on the way back.
Jiang Mei said, "What are we going to do? The only person we know here is Fu Huaiyi, and even he can't help us. Who else can we turn to?"
Wang Zhong: "Who else can we blame? They did such a shameless thing, who else can we blame?"
"Oh dear, Jianguo is just young and doesn't know any better. If you ask me, it's all Fang Qing's fault, that shameless bitch."
