“This can’t be!” Zhang Yue stood up abruptly, her palms red from hitting the table, her body trembling even more violently. “What kind of lawyer are you? Are you asking me to lie?”

“Zhang Yue, sit down!”

Before Song Yan could explain further, Zhang Tan shouted first.

Then his expression changed, adopting a more pleasing smile. “Attorney Song, right? Can the proposal you just mentioned really remove our family from this situation?”

“Yes, it can.” Song Yan affirmed, saying, “I already have the video of Wen Miao being blocked in the alley in my hands. As long as it is edited and released, it can create confusion and mislead.”

“Then won’t the culprit be let off?” Cao Hui was still concerned about this issue.

Zhang Tan glared at her fiercely, seemingly unhappy that she was causing trouble at this time.

Noticing her husband’s gaze, Cao Hui lowered her head in terror and fell silent.

Song Yan reassured with a smile, “Of course, we will catch the criminal. The police will continue to follow the previous leads. Finding that person is a way to avenge your daughter. This doesn’t conflict with releasing false information.”

Cao Hui still seemed hesitant about the feasibility of this plan.

After all, the Wens were usually good to them, and Wen Miao was a good girl. She couldn’t bear to ruin someone else’s child like this.

But Zhang Tan obviously didn’t think the same way.

He urgently hoped that those strange looks wouldn’t be solely focused on their family anymore!

God knows what he had faced outside today!

Even those friends who were even poorer than him had heard about this. They teamed up to mock him for having a “dirty” daughter. It made him refrain from drinking outside today; he just went to the supermarket and brought back a few bottles of beer, intending to drink alone at home.

But he didn’t expect that such a lawyer would appear in front of him now!

Wasn’t this a rare and excellent opportunity?

Zhang Tan nodded repeatedly, saying, “Alright, let’s do it as you said!”

“No!” Zhang Yue, full of anger, said, “This is my own business. Wen Miao and Wen Long came to see me last night out of goodwill. How can 1 lie and put the blame on Wen Miao?”

“What harm is it?” Zhang Tan, in frustration, said, “We just let Lawyer Song release the video. It’s her own fault for not being cautious and offending those gangsters. Don’t worry about this; it’s for your own good!”

“For my good, again for my good! Last night, you didn’t let me report to the police for my good. Now, for my good, you won’t even let me tell the truth!” Despairingly, Zhang Yue yelled at him, tears falling from her eyes.

Zhang Tan lost his temper immediately, stood up, and raised his voice, “Who is this for? It’s not like I was violated. Now the problem is with you! Do you know how people outside are talking about you? Both your mom and I can’t lift our heads because of you. Do you still want to go to school?”

When she heard the words “go to school,” Zhang Yue suddenly stopped crying, unbelievably asking, “Did you ever think of not letting me continue going to school before?”

Zhang Tan, hands on his hips, in a harsh tone, said, “Yes! Let me make it clear to you. If you don’t agree to Lawyer Song’s proposal just now, 1 won’t let you go back to school. 1 won’t give you a penny for tuition either!”

Zhang Yue, slumped on the sofa, grabbed her mother’s arm in desperation. “Mom, do you also think so? Say something! Didn’t you say last night that you would divorce Dad for my sake? Can we leave this family together?”

Cao Hui, already crying, hesitated for a while, finally holding her daughter’s hand, earnestly advising, “Why don’t you listen to Lawyer Song and your dad this time? As long as others believe that Wen Miao is the one in trouble, you can still be a clean and innocent girl. You can continue to go to school and make friends. Isn’t that good?”

“No.” Zhang Yue incredulously let go of her hand, pushing them away as if to draw7 a clear line with these tw^o closest people. Tears had blurred her vision long ago. “1 absolutely won’t agree to what you want to do! Unless you want to force me to death!”

“You, why can’t you understand?” Zhang Tan completely lost his patience, irritably saying, “Forget it, even if you don’t agree, it’s decided. 1 don’t believe you would really dare to die over this.”

Zhang Yue took another step back, despairingly looking at her mother sitting silently on the sofa. Then, with a howl, she turned and was about to smash her head into the wall.

Cao Hui let out a terrified scream.

In an instant, it was Song Yan who stood in front of Zhang Yue, stopping her impulsive move.

“Miss Zhang, I think you should calm down and think carefully. Why did this happen to you in the first place?” Song Yan said, unmoved by her attempt to push him awTay.

Zhang Yue didn’t want to listen to him at all and pushed him away as if going mad.

Unmoved, Song Yan continued, “Don’t you want to know wdiy those people easily let Wen Miao go? And why, coincidentally, you had an incident shortly after she got into trouble?”
