Gu Xingzhou was startled by his reaction. He turned around and saw that Mu Qing had tears streaming down her face.

Ever since she was little, Mu Changmin has always been omnipotent in her heart. She has never seen her like this.

At this moment, she could only cry because she could do nothing but cry.

But she couldn't cry.

The more times like this, the less she can let others underestimate the Mu family.

She raised her hand, quickly wiped away her tears, and then smiled reluctantly at Mu Changmin, as if she wanted to tell him that she was fine.

But Mu Changmin knew her so well that he could guess that she must have been so frightened these days that she couldn't sleep well.

She has relied on him since she was a child, and she can't live without him.

He wanted to see more of her, but was quickly taken away by the prison guards.

He finally stood in the dock, accepting the trial from the law and the people.

He actually couldn't quite hear what the judge said. He just kept looking at Mu Qing, the worry and distress in his eyes overflowing.

He knew that she acted so sensible today so as not to embarrass him.

But in his heart, she has always been his most well-behaved and lovely daughter.

It wasn't until he heard the judge calling everyone to stand that he suddenly realized what he was saying. He turned his head and looked at the person in the middle of the stage.

Suddenly, he felt that his face seemed familiar.

His memory kept going back, as if someone had suddenly hit him hard on the head.

He remembers him!

When he went to visit Liu Jinsong once before, he happened to be there!

His dead heart was suddenly filled with hope again, and his eyes were filled with light.

At this time, the judge on the stage has entered the final stage of sentencing.

"I now declare..."

With the announcement of the verdict, it was as if everything had settled. Mu Qing in the auditorium fell heavily on her chair and felt her eyes go dark.

Gu Xingzhou comforted her on the side, but he knew in his heart that Liu Jinsong must have contributed to this case.

Several people in the auditorium were talking quietly, "The sentence was only eight years, isn't it a little light?"

"Yes, and the property was not confiscated, just a small fine. If you perform well and get released within a few years, this is really..."

"Shh, stop talking."

Mu Changmin didn't speak, just looked into the distance quietly. After a long time, he turned to look at Mu Qing.

He finally felt ashamed of her.

Mu Qing seemed to have grown up suddenly at this moment. She wiped away her tears and spoke to him.

She was afraid that Mu Changmin wouldn't understand, so she said it several times.

Mu Changmin actually understood it the first time.

She said, I'll wait for you to come back.

His daughter grew up and became sensible, but he only felt sad.

The price is too high and too painful.

Soon, the prison guards came forward and took him away. He did not struggle, but kept turning back, wanting to take another look at his daughter.

This scene of deep love between father and daughter moved many people present, but no one noticed that in the corner of the last row of the auditorium, a petite figure was walking towards the door.

Jian Qiao arrived outside the court before the media and others came out. She stopped a taxi and headed towards Jian's Group.

No one supported her coming, but she came anyway.

But the result did not meet her expectations.

She consulted a lawyer. In Mu Changmin's case, a sentence of more than ten years was not a problem, and there was a high probability that all his property would be confiscated.

But the results she heard today were far from that.She knew what the problem was.

Soon, the car parked downstairs of Jane's Group. She paid and walked quickly inside.

As soon as she reached the top floor, Su Xun hurried over.

"Ancestor, you are back. Your family and the chairman are very anxious!"

Jian Qiao knew that they would be worried about this, but if she didn't go and hear Mu Changmin's fate with her own ears, she wouldn't be reconciled.

When she arrived at her office, she saw the old man sitting on the sofa with a straight face.

Gu Yanchuan was standing beside him at this moment. He didn't seem to blame her, but more like he was worried about her.

She gave him a reassuring look and closed the door.

The old man heard the sound and looked over, snorting coldly.

"You are really capable, and you still know how to come back."

Jian Qiao knew his concerns. He was afraid that she would be targeted by those behind Mu Changmin. When the time came, she would be a living target if they were hiding.

She walked over quickly and hugged his arm.

"Grandpa, I'm back now, and I'm wearing a mask and a hat. No one will recognize me, so don't be angry!"

The old man reached out and shook her hand away, his expression still ugly.

"Don't do this to me. You don't listen to me anyway. How many times have I told you not to go? Do you listen? There will be a court session today whether you go or not. Then the meaning of your existence is What, add a hot search to today’s news? Do you know how dangerous this is!”

The smile on Jian Qiao's face suddenly disappeared and turned serious and calm.

"The judge who handed down the sentence today has a problem."

She looked determined, as if she already had full evidence.

The old man was also shocked at this time, "Why do you say that? Do you already know something?"

Jian Qiao shook her head, "But I am certain that the sentence today was too light. If no one had walked around, it would not have been like this."

The old man's face suddenly became serious. He was just angry at her for being disobedient, but did not carefully analyze the sentencing standards for these two crimes.

Now that he heard her say this, he immediately understood.

"You mean, it will be Liu Jinsong?"

Jian Qiao didn't say yes or no, she just told him her guess.

"I think it's probably him, but I have no evidence."

His official position is larger than that of Mu Changmin, and his influence is even greater, but he is more low-key.

It is not easy for a low-key person to find fault with him.

The old man completely believed her words at this time, but he still couldn't help blaming her.

"No matter what, it was your mistake to sneak out today, Yanchuan, bring me a stick!"

Jian Qiao turned pale with fright and looked at him in disbelief.

"Grandpa, are you going to use lynching?"

He had never hit her since she was a child, so the fear in her heart at this moment was real.

She quickly winked and told Gu Yanchuan not to listen to him, but the young man looked helpless, as if to say that there was nothing he could do.

It wasn't until he brought something like a ruler that Jian Qiao really wanted to cry.

"Grandpa, don't do this..."

But the old man stood up with a serious face, "Stretch out your hand!"

Jian Qiao was reluctant at all, but still forced by his majesty, she stretched out her hand tremblingly.

The old man squeezed her hand and raised the stick high. Jian Qiao was so frightened that her face turned even whiter and she closed her eyes tightly.

"Snapped."
