Chapter 1641 - Epilogue (14)

After the assistant entered, he spoke to Mo Xicheng. “Mr. Mo, I brought the lawyer.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Mo Xicheng nodded.

He turned his head and took a glance at Li Shu. Then he lowered his eyes and said, “Mom, I—”

“If you have anything to discuss, you can do it outside. I’m fine.”

Mo Xicheng was still worried. “But—”

“No buts. Don’t worry, Mom is very calm. You haven’t gotten married and haven’t given birth to kids. Besides, I owe you so much, I would never leave you. I must live well and make up for what your father and I owe you. So child, go finish what you have to do. I will get over it, I will get over it one day.”

Seeing how calm Li Shu was, Mo Xicheng couldn’t help but sigh deeply in his heart.

Never in his life had he seen Li Shu lose her composure like today.

It was clear how deep her love for Mo Hai had been.

He sighed and walked out of the room with Shi Nianyao.

The lawyer his assistant had brought was sitting on the sofa outside. When he saw Mo Xicheng, he stood up instantly and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Mo.”

Mo Xicheng nodded at him and asked him to sit down. Before he could say anything, the lawyer spoke, “Mr. Mo, I know what happened. This matter is actually quite easy to settle. Mo Zhi killed Mo Hai in front of so many people. He will definitely be unable to escape charges for premeditated murder. He will receive an immediate death sentence and, as long as I take action, there’s definitely nothing that will go wrong—”

Before he could finish speaking, Mo Xicheng interrupted him. “You’re wrong. I have invited you over to fight the case for Mo Zhi.”

Everyone, the lawyer, the assistant as well as Shi Nianyao, were all instantly stunned.

Mo Xicheng lowered his head and said plainly, “I want you to be Mo Zhi’s lawyer. Say that he killed someone due to his mental state. Although it was still a homicide, he won’t have to die and the punishment will be lighter.”

The lawyer felt ill after hearing what Mo Xicheng had said. He stared at Mo Xicheng, wondering if he had heard him wrongly.

He stammered and said, “Ah- this- that- there’s no problem. Heh, I knew that all the rumors about Mr. Mo not having feelings were fake. Look at that, Mo Zhi has accidentally killed your father, but you cannot bear to watch your own younger brother get killed like that, right? In this case, even if Mo Zhi has gone mad, he still won’t be able to escape punishment. The lowest punishment for him would be being jailed for life.”

Mo Xicheng had no reaction to the lawyer trying to flatter him. He only nodded plainly and said, “I heard that Mo Zhi borrowed from Big Belly, the loan shark. What Big Belly is doing is illegal too, right?”

The lawyer instantly nodded. “It is illegal, but this matter isn’t a big deal. It is just illegal management.”

Mo Xicheng nodded. “But he’ll at least be given three to five years of punishment, right?”

The lawyer was stunned, but he instantly understood. “Are you helping Mr. Mo Zhi take revenge? There’s no problem about this either! I can help you sue Big Belly!”

Mo Xicheng nodded, stood up and said, “Ok, just these two matters. As for the fees, you can discuss it with my secretary.”

The lawyer and assistant walked out.

Shi Nianyao stared at the two men leaving

Mo Xicheng suddenly spoke, “Nianyao, I’m not the type of person he was speaking about—”

Shi Nianyao didn’t wait for him to finish before covering his mouth.

Mo Xicheng paused.

Shi Nianyao looked at him with a clear gaze. “I know what you mean.”
