The Elite Assassin Becomes a Flat and Ugly Nerd! - Chapter 261
261 Jailed For Life
“In that case, Tang Xia’s real intention in calling me is to let me cover up Tang Li’s crimes so that she can be released from prison as soon as possible. Then, he really found the wrong person. Putting aside the question of whether doing this will violate my principles, just based on the lawsuit between you and him, as long as you say the word, I definitely won’t help him.”
“With your words, I feel more confident.” Shan Yue’s brows were slightly relaxed. The entire matter was still under her control. “However, I still have a question in my heart. Can Tang Xia really bear to see his daughter go to jail for a few years? Even though he asked you to help reduce the crime, Tang Li will still go to jail for two to three years in the end.”
“Could it be that Tang Xia used his daughter in exchange for the future of Tang Corporation?”
“What I didn’t expect was that in Tang Xia’s eyes, the Tang Corporation was actually more important than his own daughter.”
!!
In the end, the two of them discussed for a long time but did not see a definite result. Then, Cheng Yue hung up the phone and went to the court to file a case.
Just as Tang Xia’s series of actions confused Shan Yue’s mind, Xi Feng finished his other work and came to prepare for the lawsuit with the Tang Corporation.
“Do you still have a video of Tang Li that you haven’t made public to Tang Xia?” Xi Feng ran through the entire incident from beginning to end and began to analyze the case. “This video is the final decisive evidence. With it, Tang Li will be jailed for life. No matter what excuse she finds, she won’t have a chance to make a comeback.”
“Compared to this, what puzzled me the most was why Tang Xia would abandon his daughter for the company.” As she spoke, a bad thought suddenly appeared in Shan Yue’s mind. “Xi Feng, do you think there’s a possibility that Tang Xia didn’t abandon his daughter at all? In the end, the person who took the blame for the Tang Corporation wasn’t Tang Li at all, but the scapegoat?”
“What you said does make sense.” Xi Feng thought for a moment before saying slowly, “Tang Xia only knows that you have this photo in your hand, but he doesn’t know that you have this video of Tang Li. He can totally find someone to say that he was blinded by benefits and stole Tang Li’s stamp to commit these crimes. After that, he only needs to give a large sum of money to the scapegoat. This way, not only will it not damage the reputation of the Tang Corporation, but it might also save Tang Li.”
A wicked smile appeared on Shan Yue’s lips, and even her eyebrows curved into crescents. “If it’s as we think, then Tang Xia’s actions are too naive. However, this also explains why he dared to reject my request and suddenly became so unyielding.”
Xi Feng walked forward slightly and sat opposite Shan Yue. His fingers tapped the table casually. “Actually, there’s another reason why I’m here today. It’s because something unexpected happened last night.”
“Why? Don’t tell me Tang Xia asked you to be the defense lawyer for the Tang Corporation?”
“You’re so boring. How did you guess it so quickly? Can’t you pretend that you don’t know and make me feel a little mysterious?” Xi Feng said in a half-joking tone. “Tang Xia did contact me last night and wanted me to defend the Tang family. He even said that he would pay me ten times the remuneration. As expected, the president of the Tang family is different. He’s so generous.”
There was a faint smile between Shan Yue’s thin lips. “Why? When did Xi Feng become someone who can be bribed with money? This is different from what I remember.”
“Look at what you’re saying. When did I become that kind of person?” Xi Feng placed one leg naturally on the other, looking very calm. “Not to mention ten times the remuneration, even if he gave me twenty times the remuneration, I still wouldn’t agree to it. A busy person like me has pushed away everything that has happened recently and is wholeheartedly trying to help you. How can I be bribed by a small sum of money?”
