“Your father’s situation has already been communicated to you by someone in the chat.”

“This money came from an illegal source. It doesn’t belong to your father or you. It will be confiscated soon.”

“The authorities are on their way to your house.”

“They’ll arrive at your house in another ten minutes,” Chen Yu added after checking the time on his phone.

“Your father will be invited to tea by them without any preparation.”

“If nothing goes wrong, he will be sentenced to death.”

With every sentence Chen Yu said, [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man]’s heart tensed up.

When she heard the word ‘death penalty’, she felt her world spin, and she almost fainted.

But if nothing unexpected happened, there seemed to be a chance to salvage the situation.

“Dr. Chen, can I still salvage my father’s situation?”

“There’s a chance,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile. “As for how, I’ll have

Lawyer Luo, who’s proficient in law, help me answer that question.”

Hearing that Chen Yu had called out his name, Lawyer Luo sent a smiley face emoji.

Then, he started typing.

Soon, many paid comments appeared on the screen.

If the criminal suspect could actively return the embezzled public funds and at the same time perform meritorious deeds, the court would reduce the punishment as appropriate.

Lawyer Luo first sent out the law’ citation and then sent in a supplement.

Meritorious deeds included reporting his accomplices.

Or, he could inform the authorities about the crimes that had not been discovered.

The greater the crime reported, the greater the chance of getting a lighter punishment.

Lawyer Luo attached a few websites to the comment.

They were all announcements of past judgments.

Because these people actively returned the money and performed meritorious deeds, they were sentenced to life imprisonment or a suspended death sentence instead.

In any case, they saved their lives.

“Did you see that, dear patient? If you want your father to live, he has to actively partake in returning all the money.”

“The public funds your father has embezzled over the years amount to around 600 million.”

“If he makes a refund during the investigation stage, there’s a high chance that he’ll be given a suspended death sentence.”

Following Lawyer Luo’s comment, Chen Yu added more information.

“600 million?!”

“Even if we sell our house and all our valuables, it’s impossible to get so much money.”

[Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] slumped on the chair as if she had lost all her bones.

600 million was an astronomical figure that her family would never be able to earn in their lifetime.

Forget about 600 million. Even if it were 60 million, her family would not be able to gather it.

“As expected of Dr. Chen. The way you punish evil and promote good is always different from anyone else.”

“You’ve given her a way out, but an impossible one. That’s what makes her despair.”

“I almost unfollowed him impulsively when I heard Dr. Chen say he wanted to help her. Fortunately, I didn’t.”

“I can tell that you’re a new fan. You don’t understand Dr. Chen’s personality.”

“Dr. Chen is a well-known nemesis of crime. How could he help criminals?”

“Doesn’t she have a godfather? Hurry up and find him to think of a way.”

“Her godfather is a real godfather. Not a sugar daddy.”

The viewers who had suffered from these extreme feminists started to mock [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man].

Her family’s crime would not be absolved with just a casual apology on the Internet.

It wasn’t as simple as writing an apology essay.

What they had done was illegal, and it was the most severe kind.

A crime that would grant the death sentence.

There was no need for further investigation on [Iron Fist in hitting

Shrimp-headed Man].

Anyone who had received nine years of education could guess that [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man]’s family background was powerful.

Otherwise, these embezzlements would not have gone unnoticed.

Chen Yu revealed that her father was the head of a large corporation.

It was equivalent to sending the answer to everyone that [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Mani’s life would not be great after her father’s downfall, even if she hid abroad.

These foreign countries weren’t charities, especially to useless people.

They wouldn’t harbor someone poor.

Previously, under the protection of her family, she had swaggered out of the country to avoid the limelight.

If her family collapsed, she couldn’t stay abroad for long.

She would either be deported or run back with her tail between her legs.

“Dr. Chen, help me! Help me think of a way.”

At this point, [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] had no choice but to lower her head.

She stood up from her chair and kneeled, begging Chen Yu with tears in her eyes.

Chen Yu had given her a solution.

However, even if they sold everything they had, they could not gather so much money.

Their house and her father’s collection of antiques, jewelry, and luxury goods put together wouldn’t even net them 10 million.

“What are you doing?” Chen Yu asked with a smile. “Get up quickly.”

“The chat has already given you a way out.”

“What did they give me?” [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] asked blankly as she stopped the tears.

“Other than mocking and gloating comments, 1 didn’t see any useful content.”

“No, no, no. There’s a lot of useful advice.”

Chen Yu raised his finger and wagged it. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he said, “The chat suggested that you look for your godfather to think of a solution.”

“He has a good relationship with your family and is a businessman.”

“600 million is not a drop in the bucket for him, but he does have that money.”

“No, no, if I find him, my father will be unhappy.”

[Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] kept shaking her head.

She definitely couldn’t find Uncle Gao. If he goes to her father, he will definitely fly into a rage.

“If you put it this way,” Chen Yu spread his hands and replied strangely, “I really have no other choice.”

“Your godfather is a big entrepreneur in your area. 600 million is not an astronomical figure for him.”

“He’s the only person you can ask for help.”

“Other than him, I don’t think any of your relatives and friends are that wealthy, right?”

[Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] bit her lips

She could still remember how her father used to be when he was angry.

Worried that Uncle Gao was that kind of person, [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] gradually refused to associate with Uncle Gao.

A large number of question marks appeared in the chat.

At this point, what was there to hesitate about?

The viewers sent a large number of question marks, not because they sympathized with [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man].

They weren’t worried about her, either.

They just couldn’t understand why she refused to take Chen Yu’s suggestion.

Especially when she was so anxious that she had cried and begged earlier.

“Doctors can only provide the corresponding treatment plan according to the patient’s condition.”

“As for whether to use it or not, it depends on the patient’s will.”

“If you think that the suggestions given by me and the chat are unacceptable, 1 think everyone will respect your opinion.”

“It’s getting late. See you guys next time.”

Seeing that Chen Yu was about to end the call, [Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] hurriedly said, “Don’t end the call. I… I’ll call Uncle Gao.”

[Iron Fist in hitting Shrimp-headed Man] picked up her phone and took a deep breath to gather her courage.

She pressed the dial-back button..
