Chapter 168 - Drugged?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Bin knew that he should not prolong such a strange line of conversation like this, but after listening to Wu Wei’s narration, it seemed like a huge problem.

After chatting with Wu Wei, Lin Bin left.

The people from the second team kept watch on Lin Bin’s every move, afraid that he would do something.

Lin Bin was an experienced lawyer, so he naturally would not let himself get into trouble.

He said goodbye to He Feng and left.

After walking out of the police station, Lin Bin picked up the phone and dialed Fang Ya’s number.

When Fang Ya picked up the phone, Shao Xiang was making a quilt at the side.

Because there was another person at home, they did not have enough quilts.

Fang Ya originally wanted to go to the mall to buy a bed and quilt, but Shao Xiang refused no matter what, saying that she did not want Fang Ya to waste money.

Fang Ya could not persuade Shao Xiang otherwise, so she could only let her make the quilt. It could also ease the tension in her heart.

Fang Ya looked at the phone number and hesitated for a moment. She did not walk out. She answered the call directly. “Lawyer Lin, how is it? Did you see him?”

Shao Xiang heard that Fang Ya was on the phone with Lin Bin. She immediately perked up her ears and listened.

Lin Bin briefly explained Wu Wei’s situation.

Fang Ya also repeated Lin Bin’s words. “Wu Wei is doing well now? That’s good…”

“Hmm, he didn’t lose weight? That proves that he can still eat,” Fang Ya continued as her gaze swept over Shao Xiang.

Shao Xiang lowered her head and did not look at Fang Ya, but her hands slowed down.

Fang Ya continued to listen to Lin Bin’s words. “You mean that woman might have drugged Wu Wei?”

“I don’t dare to say that, but there must be something wrong with Wu Wei’s abnormal behavior!” Lin Bin did not dare to make random guesses. He could only analyze it carefully.

Fang Ya nodded. She was aware of Lin Bin’s difficult position. “I understand. Then, in your opinion, how should we continue with this matter?”

Lin Bin thought for a moment and said, “It’s inconvenient to talk over the phone. Miss Fang, can you bring Captain He to my office?”

Fang Ya heard this and replied, “Okay! Then, can you please wait for us later, Lawyer Lin? We’ll come over tonight. Is that okay?”

“Okay!” Lin Bin did not say anything more. After he agreed, he hung up the phone.

Fang Ya also hung up the phone. She turned around and wanted to say something to Shao Xiang, but she saw Shao Xiang still lost in a daze.

Fang Ya said to Shao Xiang, “Mom…”

Shao Xiang quivered, and the needle in her hand directly pierced the fingertip of her left index finger.

Blood instantly flowed out and dripped onto the snow-white satin surface.

Seeing this, Fang Ya was shocked. “Are you alright?”

Shao Xiang shook her head and said, “How is it? What did Lawyer Lin say?”

“There are still some things that need to be understood in depth.” Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang and said, “Lawyer Lin asked He Feng and I to go over tonight.”

“Oh…” Shao Xiang replied and continued to lower her head to sew the quilt.

Fang Ya sighed to herself. She knew that it was not that Shao Xiang did not care. It was just that she was too nervous right now and did not know how to react.

After a moment, Shao Xiang raised her head to look at Fang Ya. “Can I come too?”

When Fang Ya heard this, she did not turn her down. “Okay! We’ll go together tonight!”

Shao Xiang forced a smile at Fang Ya. “Thank you, Fang Ya.”

Fang Ya grabbed Shao Xiang’s hand and said, “Mom, we’re family. This is what I should be doing.”

Shao Xiang lowered her head and looked at Fang Ya’s hand that was grabbing hers. The tears in her eyes finally fell.

Fang Ya sighed and leaned forward. She hugged Shao Xiang and said, “Don’t be afraid! Wu Wei didn’t do it. He will definitely be acquitted!”

Shao Xiang replied sullenly and said, “I know. I just…”

Shao Xiang paused for a moment and hugged Fang Ya. “I can only count on you…”

Fang Ya acknowledged and hugged Shao Xiang tightly. She comforted her silently..
