Regarding this trial, it has reached the final judgnt stage but hasn’t been decided yet. Since it involves the category of the death penalty, it is bound to be handled with utmost caution. The victim’s family is strongly demanding the death penalty, while Kang Yueting’s first trial resulted in a suspended death sentence.
"Now this case of Kang Yueting—" Xiao Shuju said, "Since Kang Yueting is ultimately a child of the Xiao Family, the family cannot completely ignore her. Grandmother has hired a lawyer for her continuously, hoping to save her life, and that’s the most compassionate thing we can do."
"Have you visited her in prison?" asked Xiao Shuzhu.
Xiao Shuju shook her head: "I haven’t been there. I’ve been traveling outside for the past few years. However, I heard that Grandmother went to the prison, but Yueting refused to see her."
"Refused to see?"
It’s clear that Kang Yueting still harbors resentnt towards the Xiao Family.
At this point in the discussion, the truth of the matter was evident. The auction house contacted only Kang Yueting. As for whether the auction house managed to get in touch with Kang Yueting personally, further investigation is needed.
In any case, as these two sisters discussed further, they realized that handling this matter alone was beyond their capabilities. If the items were really put up for auction, a considerable amount of funds would be required. At this mont, both Xiao Shuju and Xiao Shuzhu were lacking in financial power. Therefore, the only wealthy people left in the Xiao Family were their couple, Xiao Yebai.
"Mom, Mom—" Zhu Jiayin’s voice shouted loudly in the corridor.
Xiao Shuzhu quickly handed the painting to the third sibling, saying: "Now that this painting, since I opened the cabinet, it’s exposed. It’s not suitable to keep it here. Take it to Yebai and his sister-in-law to see. Maybe they have a better way to store it."
Xiao Shuju nodded, held the painting with one hand against her chest.
The two sisters, led by Xiao Shuzhu, walked out of the storage room, heading to her daughter.
Zhu Jiayin was so excited she was unable to speak properly, waving her hand and saying: "Mom, Dad woke up, and the first thing he asked was, where’s Mom?"
Xiao Shuzhu smiled, thinking how sotis her foreign husband could be so silly it made her feel like crying and laughing simultaneously.
Following her daughter, she walked back to her husband’s room and saw their son Anthony kneeling by his father’s bed, holding his father’s hand, saying: "Mom is here, Dad."
After this incident, it was clear that the children had grown up considerably. It was a blessing in disguise.
Xiao Shuzhu walked up to her husband and bowed her head, saying: "You’ve woken up."
Zhu Minxuan lifted his eyes and saw her in his view, seemingly relieved.
"I won’t go anywhere, you know that." Xiao Shuzhu said.
Zhu Minxuan did not speak.
Xiao Shuzhu then realized that he was worried that after surviving, those people would co after her for revenge. She said to him, "Don’t worry. Look, if you can make it through, our family will undoubtedly protect us both."
Zhu Minxuan squinted slightly, having just undergone surgery, surely feeling very weak, and only managed to forcefully say two words: "Ye Bai—"
"Yes, my younger brother. I’ll ask him to co." Xiao Shuzhu nodded in agreent.
The news of the patient regaining consciousness also reached Xiao Yebai and his family. Ou Yanan personally asured Gu Nuan’s blood sugar again and said, "It’s still sowhat low, eat more food and supplent with nutrition."
