The 99th Divorce Chapter 1552 – There’s A Problem At This Juncture

Chapter 1552 There’s A Problem At This Juncture

“Thank you, Big Brother.” Li Jinnan massaged his eyes and sighed.

Li Beixing could sense Li Jinnan’s mood and tried to console him. “Don’t worry. As long as she didn’t do it, nothing will happen to her. You were right to not act in the heat of the moment. This matter has the potential to become big but can also be contained. What’s important is to remain calm and wait for the right time to take action.”

“Yeah.” Li Jinnan understood that principle well, but he couldn’t help worrying or dispel the uneasiness in his heart.

“How long have you been with this lady?” Li Beixing’s tone was a little stern as he asked, “Why would someone come after her for no reason? I’m not accusing her of anything, but if… and I’m saying ‘if’ the woman isn’t innocent, what do you intend to do?”

“That’s impossible.” Li Jinnan was absolutely certain. “She’s not capable of doing something like that. The one that was just sent to the emergency department is her stepsister. She’s mentally unstable, and her case is quite severe. My girlfriend is her groom’s ex-wife, and she holds a grudge against her.”

“What?” Li Beixing was surprised. “Ex-wife? Your girlfriend was married before?”

“Yeah. It was a marriage-for-show.” Li Jinnan’s head began to ache. He leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes as he said, “It was the sort of marriage where nothing was consummated.”

“Damn! How liberal you are? How do you intend to break this news to the family?” Li Beixing felt as if he was about to lose it. “If you were to tell our mom that this girlfriend of yours was divorced, implicated in a crime of murder, and locked up in prison, what do you think her reaction will be?”

Li Jinnan’s throbbing headache intensified with his discomfort. He replied in annoyance, “I don’t know! This is not the time to be pondering such questions! The priority now is to find a way to get Ye Youyou out and prove her innocence. Big Brother, are you able to do that?”

Li Beixing’s brows dipped. He was silent for a long while before answering, “You’re sure she’d never do such a thing?”

“Absolutely.”

“Alright. You need to get a lawyer. If I recall correctly, the parents of Second Brother’s wife are in the Capital, and their standing in the Capital is beyond doubt. You should get your sister-in-law to help you.” Li Beixing sounded extremely stern and said, “It’s hard to tell if this matter will be blown up. I’ve heard of the Guan family that you mentioned. Guan Yanhong is not a simple character. He’s vicious and, furthermore, that’s his only daughter. I’m afraid he won’t sit back and let this pass.”

I have to make use of Su Qianci’s connections…

That thought had never crossed Li Jinnan’s mind. Given the current circumstances and the fact that Li Beixing, Li Sicheng, and his collective clout were all in Kingstown while Guan Yanhong was such a high-profile figure in the Capital, handling this on their own would yield problems. If someone from the upper echelons of the Capital were to get involved, the matter would be much easier to resolve.

Li Jinnan gave it some thought and replied, “Got it. I’m hanging up now.”

“Alright. Don’t worry too much,” Li Beixing said. “Since she’s your girlfriend, we will save her. I’m just worried that you’ll make a mess of things, which will make it hard to explain to the family. Grandpa is not in good health, so you’d better not let news of this reach home.”

“Grandpa knows that she’s divorced, and he knows her family background,” Li Jinnan said. “It’ll be fine even if Grandpa finds out. He quite likes her anyway.”

“No, you mustn’t let the family know,” Li Beixing said. “You must keep this matter a secret. If Mom finds out about it in the future, so be it. If they find out about it at this juncture, what do you think the consequences will be?”
