The gigolo kept by the matriarch turned out to be the heir to a wealthy family.

Chapter 100 He cares more about your safety

Seeing that Dai Sheng remained silent, Yun Yao raised an eyebrow.

"Attorney Dai, hmm?"

Dai Sheng glanced at Yun Yao, then lowered his head to look through the documents.

"Su Yuchen, President of Yonsei International." His voice was neither loud nor soft, but it resonated perfectly with Yun Yao.

If he were to look up now, he would surely see the tenderness shimmering in Yun Yao's eyes.

“Miss Yun, can you tell me about what happened that day?” Dai Sheng placed his hands on the table, looking at Yun Yao with a serious expression.

"Of course, that day, I..."

Yun Yao recounted the entire story of that day in one breath, including all the grievances she had with Xue Qing, to Dai Sheng without missing a single detail.

Despite being imprisoned, she showed no sign of dejection, a stark contrast to her previous attitude. Her tone was cheerful, and her eyes and brows were lively and bright.

Yun Yao is actually in a good mood right now?

“Attorney Dai, Xue Qing died by suicide. The mastermind behind it was Bai Mengyan. The Xue family was also involved. Bai Mengyan’s goal was to destroy me. As for the Xue family… they wanted to take over the Yun family’s W International.” Yun Yao spoke eloquently.

This was the first time Dai Sheng had ever seen a woman like Yun Yao. She was being targeted by the Xue family and didn't know when she would be convicted, yet she showed no fear, speaking as calmly as if she were talking about what she had eaten that day.

"Miss Yun, have you said these things to the police?" Dai Sheng asked.

Yun Yao chuckled and shook her head: "It involves the Xue and Su families. Do you think they'd believe me if I told them? What if someone with ulterior motives overheard and I was killed to silence me?"

Dai Sheng nodded upon hearing this.

“Miss Yun Yao, to be honest, if the Xue and Su families are the masterminds behind this, it’s unrealistic to try to convict them. They are both powerful clans with hundreds of years of history, and their influence in the capital is deeply entrenched. It’s no exaggeration to say that they are difficult to shake. If you are not careful, your life will be threatened. So what we need to do now is to prove that Xue Qing committed suicide.”

Yun Yao leaned back in her chair, looking down at the coldly gleaming handcuffs on her wrists.

"Chang Shuo told me you are the only lawyer in the capital who is not afraid of powerful figures. I suppose what you said today was not your true intention?" Yun Yao said softly.

Dai Sheng was slightly taken aback. Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman in front of him, he seemed to understand. How could someone who could win the favor of the most outstanding heirs of the Su and Ge families be anything less than exceptional?

“Indeed, this is Su Yuchen’s idea. Before coming here, he specifically told me that he cares more about your safety than about making those malignant tumors pay the price.”

Hearing Dai Sheng's words, Yun Yao's eyes flickered slightly, and something began to grow in her heart, making her feel itchy.

"Ms. Yun, the reason why the police haven't convicted you yet is mainly because they haven't found your fingerprints on the glass. But that's not enough to overturn the case. Everything will have to wait for the forensic autopsy results before a conclusion can be reached."

Yun Yao nodded, understanding their difficulties.

"Attorney Dai, that's enough for today." Chang Shuo pushed open the door and greeted Dai Sheng.

……

After Dai Sheng left the police station, he got directly into a black car parked across the street.

"how is the situation?"

"The situation is not optimistic. The case has reached a dead end. As long as it cannot be proven that Xue Qing committed suicide, Miss Yun will not be able to clear her name. Even if she cannot be convicted, she will not be released."

His hands tightened around the steering wheel, his eyes blazing.

"Is she... okay?"

Dai Sheng was slightly taken aback, never expecting to hear this man express his concern for others in his lifetime.

"President Su, you're overthinking it. Your sweetheart is no ordinary person. If it were an ordinary woman, with such a huge public outcry and being imprisoned with no idea when she'd see the light of day again, she'd probably be contemplating suicide. But she's acting like nothing's wrong! I heard from Chang Shuo that she even helped the police get several tough guys to talk last night!" Dai Sheng shook his head, recalling that stunning figure.

The person who came to pick up Dai Sheng was none other than Su Yuchen.

Upon hearing Dai Sheng's words, Su Yuchen's icy gaze gradually softened.

She's alright...that's good.

"Attorney Dai, thank you for your hard work today. I will find evidence of Xue Qing's suicide as soon as possible. Please keep an eye on her these next few days," Su Yuchen said in a deep voice.

Dai Sheng nodded, thought for a moment, and felt that there was something he should remind Su Yuchen of.

"President Su, we've known each other for so many years, and there's something I must tell you. I met Xue Haoqian today. The Xue family seems determined to win this time, and I doubt they'll let us overturn the case easily."

Su Yuchen nodded in response, his expression remaining unchanged.

In this capital city, who wouldn't tremble with fear upon hearing the name Xue Haoqian? But that doesn't include the man standing before him.

……

one day.

Two days.

Three days have passed, and there has been no progress in Yun Yao's case.

The incident caused a huge uproar online, and W International's stock price plummeted. As the saying goes, "When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter," and the Yun family was attacked from all sides. Everyone was extremely busy. Old Master Yun shuttled between his old friends, spending countless manpower and resources, hoping that they would help Yun Yao out of old friendship.

However, they were all warned by the Xue family and, in order to protect themselves, had no choice but to abandon the Yun family, which was beyond saving.

Yun Zhengfeng staggered down the street, clutching Yun Yao's exam results in his hand, his eyes filled with despair.

He just wanted to tell them how outstanding someone must be to achieve such a score! How could she possibly kill someone over such a trivial matter!

Why! Why is no one willing to believe it!

He had tried everything these past few days, but he still couldn't get a chance to see Miss Yun Yao.

"Miss Yunyao...I'm so sorry." I never imagined you would suffer such a calamity!

"Ancestors, I, Yun Zhengfeng, am an unfilial son!"

A cool breeze swept by, and Yun Zhengfeng's report card fluttered in the wind, making him sway precariously.

“Miss Yun Yao…” His eyes were filled with despair.

Just as Yun Zhengfeng was about to fall, a hand suddenly caught his arm. This long-lost feeling made Yun Zhengfeng's dull eyes light up, and he hurriedly turned around.

"cloud……"

Unfortunately, what he saw was an elderly man who was about the same age as him.

"Thank you." Yun Zhengfeng's voice was filled with disappointment.

Looking at Yun Zhengfeng's dejected appearance, Luo Hong felt a pang of sadness.

"Is this Brother Yun?"

Yun Zhengfeng looked at the person in front of him, but couldn't remember who he was.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"I am just like you, someone who serves our ancestors." Luo Hong spoke of Yun Yao with pride.

At that moment, Yun Zhengfeng seemed to see a glimmer of hope in rescuing Yun Yao.

"You...you're also one of Miss Yun Yao's people?"

Luo Hong nodded and helped Yun Zhengfeng to sit down on a bench.

"Our ancestor knew you would be so dejected, so he specifically sent me to give you these words of advice. Don't worry, she's fine and won't be in any trouble. It's just that the time isn't right yet. You don't need to worry."

It's no secret that Yun Yao is completely cut off from outside information, so how did this person in front of me get in touch with Miss Yun Yao?
