    Hong Kong.


    An overnight interrogation.


    After some rest.


    Du Qi met with hiswyer.


    "Mr. Du, your case is very troublesome. The police already have conclusive evidence and confessions, and the blood on your bodies is the victim’s. All evidence is indisputable. You need to prepare yourself."


    "What preparation?" Du Qi asked.


    Thewyer said, "Over thirty-five years of imprisonment is the best oue you can hope for."


    Upon hearing thirty-five years,


    Du Qi panicked.


    "The knife... wasn’t mine." Having drunk too much wine, Du Qi had no continuity in his memory. He only knew that he indeed was wielding a stick and beating the victim with it.


    But where did the knifee from?


    Thewyer shook his head.


    "Whether the knife is yours or not is irrelevant now. You’re the one who killed the victim. And since you’re iming the knife isn’t yours while you were drunk, the court won’t ept that."


    "I... I have money," Du Qi said loudly.


    "I will do my best to argue for a reduced sentence," thewyer sighed.


    This matter


    wasn’t just about the person who diedst night, but also the other cases against Du Qi. Adding them up, Du Qi’s future was already sealed. He sighed,menting the loss of future legal fees from Du Qi.


    "..."


    Hearing this.


    Du Qi slumped in the chair, his face ashen. Once he went out, no, he didn’t even think he would have the chance to see the outside world of freedom again. He regretted drinkingst night.


    But it was toote.


    ...


    Qingyan City.


    Seeing that the matter was settled.


    Tang Qing’s lips curled up slightly, feeling a bit of relief.


    To set up this trap.


    Not to involve innocent people, he had specifically chosen an ’appropriate’ victim, a hooligan who hadmitted a break-in and, when discovered by the homeowner and her daughter, turned to murder.


    The fighters first caught him in an alley.


    Informed him it was for that case, let him know why he was going to die.


    On another front.


    They lured Du Qi over.


    During thest bout of the fight, the fighters slipped Du Qi a knife, and the rest of the event unfolded almost exactly as scripted. The robbery was deservedly punished, and Du Qi stumbled,pounded by his past misdeeds.


    This case,


    Irond evidence.


    No matter whichwyers they hire, they won’t be able to overturn the verdict.


    ...


    The news of Du Qi’s arrest.


    Domestically, the media hardly reported it, after all, there were endless domestic issues to cover, who had time to report on a drunken murderer from Hong Kong. However, some people were very interested in this matter.


    Beijing.


    At the Chai family’s home.


    Today was thest day of Zhan Xi’s rest.


    Tomorrow, Monday.


    She was due to return to work at the hospital.


    In the living room.


    Zhan Xi was holding her daughter, her maternal love overflowing. Although her daughter spent most of her time sleeping, the sight of her adorable sleeping posture and delicate little face melted Zhan Xi’s heart.


    She would asionally kiss her daughter’s chubby little face.


    "Alright, you holding her like that, she won’t sleepfortably. Give her to me, I’ll put her back," seeing her daughter had held onto her granddaughter without letting go since early morning, Zhan Xi’s mother advised helplessly.


    "Oh."


    Zhan Xi let go reluctantly, watching her mother carry her daughter back to the crib in the room.


    "If you like the girl so much, stay at home with the child, and stop thinking about the hospital and patients all the time," said Zhan Xi’s mother as she walked out, unable to deal with her daughter who had not taken care of her own child in favor of work.


    "Mom, I’m still able to work, I can’t waste the skills I’ve spent so many years learning."


    Zhan Xi shook her head vigorously. As a half workaholic, she felt obliged by the higher education quota and resources she enjoyed to do meaningful things.


    To realize personal value.


    Children are children.


    Careers are careers.


    She believed she could manage both.


    After all, her mother was free and could help take care of her daughter.


    "You always can’t sit still," Chai Ren came over and wrapped his arms around Zhan Xi.


    Zhan Xi leaned into Chai Ren’s embrace.


    "Of course, I can’t sit still while I’m able. Speaking of which, how are the newspapers doing over in Hong Kong? Still trying to boost sales by smearing Little Tang’s name, that’s just hical. If they keep this up, we’ll have to find a way to deal with them."


    Denigrating Tang Qing was something Zhan Xi couldn’t tolerate.


    Speaking of this, Chai Ren shook his head with a wry smile, "Don’t worry, they’ve quieted down now. It’d be hard for them to make a peep even if they wanted to."


    The news about Tang Qing.


    Chai Ren had always been paying close attention.


    He had thought that "Secret News" would release a ’smear Tang Qing part three’, but when he woke up in the morning, he saw the news that Du Qi and the others had been rounded up at once, this move, he smelled a familiar scent.


    "Did Little Tang sue them?" Zhan Xi perked up.


    "No," Chai Ren shook his head.


    Zhan Xi asked in confusion, "Did he find someone to do it?"


    "This... just take a look for yourself," Chai Ren said as he passed the notebookputer on the tea table to Zhan Xi, which disyed the interface of a major Hong Kong newspaper, with the headline—"Drunkenness, Harmful to Oneself and Others."


    The headline was very ’public welfare’.


    Zhan Xi took a careful look.


    He found thetest developments on Du Qi inside.


    None of the others were innocent, but this boss, Du Qi, was implicated in an intentional homicide from years ago and several cases of ’assault’. The victim’s families had already made a fuss at the police station, demanding severe punishment.


    Following this trend,


    Du Qi’s prison term could be quite lengthy.


    "Fantastic, it’s karmic retribution." After reading the full news, Zhan Xi pped his hands gleefully, then looked at Chai Ren, suddenly changing his expression, "Honey, what’s this about? Is this rted to Little Tang?"


    "No," Chai Ren immediately shook his head.


    Zhan Xi nodded, "That’s right, how could Little Tang do such a thing, and besides, this incident was indeed idental, it can only be said to be karmic retribution, hmph, such an unscrupulous media, to actually ckmail the whistleblowers, despicable."


    Seeing the bad guys brought to justice and captured made Zhan Xi’s mood soar.


    "Heh heh," Chai Ren’s face broke into a smile.


    An ident?


    If it happened to someone else, it might be an ident.


    But when rted to Tang Qing,


    Chai Ren wouldn’t consider it an ident.


    Would Tang Qing do such a thing? Chai Ren didn’t dare say he wouldn’t.


    Zhan Xi so easily ruled out Tang Qing because she hadn’t seen how Tang Qing’s friend ’handled issues’. If she had, she definitely wouldn’t have jumped to conclusions so soon.


    That person, in front of his eyes in Africa, had killed more than a hundred robbers. And in the Capital of Congo Gold, he’d dealt a heavy hand to those African police who wanted to kill him.


    Now this?


    It was merely a ’minor scene’.


    Although the evidence suggested an ident.


    Chai Ren just couldn’t believe it, but he wouldn’t tell outsiders that he and Tang Qing were on the same page, close allies, good friends in life; it was enough to know it, no need to spell it out.


    "Should we call Little Tang to give him a heads up?" Zhan Xi said cheerfully.


    Chai Ren shook his head, for such matters, it was sufficient to be aware, there’s no need toy it all out, "As someone involved in the incident, he’s bound to be aware of it. There’s no need for us to notify him."


    With Tang Qing’s prudence,


    even if he went to tell him, Tang Qing definitely wouldn’t admit it.


    "That’s true."


    Zhan Xi felt Chai Ren made sense.


    ...


    Qingyan City.


    Inside the Manor.


    Tang Kai had just finished breakfast when he learned of the "Secret News" shareholders’ ’group incarceration’ news.


    He was stunned for a good while.


    After finishing the meal.


    He couldn’t help but ask Tang Qing.


    "Tangtang, what’s going on over there?"


    "What’s going on?" Tang Qing feigned confusion.


    Tang Qing’s acting was so good, his expression so spot on, that even Tang Kai had doubts and then said, "The media that smeared you, their boss got into trouble, you don’t know about it?"


    "Heh, I just found out about it too. What, Uncle Kai, you thought it was my doing?" Tang Qing asked directly in response.


    Tang Kai gave a bitter smile.


    "Anyone would think that first."


    Hearing this, Tang Qing’s expression turned serious.


    "Uncle Kai, I actually didn’t do anything. Even if it’s rted to me, I guess someone must have been unhappy with their actions. So, I would rather believe it has nothing to do with me, to avoid trouble."


    The statement was a bit convoluted.


    After thinking for two seconds,


    Tang Kai figured it out.


    "Got it, haha, it’s really karmic retribution," Tang Kaiughed loudly.


    He understood what Tang Qing meant; if the incident had nothing to do with him, then it really didn’t, but if it did, it still needed to seem unrted, even if it was Tang Qing’s friend who had done it, it had to have nothing to do with Tang Qing.


    It was a bit convoluted.


    But,


    the matter


    had been concluded, there was no need to delve deeper.
