Chapter 486: Can I See Her?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Huo Jinyan was led into a room with Lin Ci following behind.

“Mr. Huo, these are the statements from the three parties.”

Huo Jinyan raised his hand and looked at the first two. Lin Ci also leaned over to take a look.

After seeing two of them, Huo Jinyan heaved a sigh of relief. They had fought and the injuries were not serious, so these could still be easily resolved.

But the last one he read was Lu Nings.

His cold gaze was fixated on the words at the back: ‘attempted to do something untoward to me’.

The small room instantly felt oppressive, and Lin Ci could feel the murderous aura from the person beside her.

She read slower as Huo Jinyan was holding it too high, and she had to tiptoe to read it.

When she read to the end, she finally understood why Huo Jinyan had suddenly become like this. Even she wanted to reach for a knife.

The people behind him looked at Huo Jinyan. They did not know who Huo Jinyan was worried about, so they did not dare to speak rashly.

“Mr. Huo, their accounts don’t match, so we’re looking for another party to take their statement. If it’s proven that the plaintiffs are lying and that Miss

Lu was sexually assaulted, then the matter will become more serious.”

Huo Jinyan suddenly turned to him. His eyes seemed to have been dipped in ice, making people shiver as if they had fallen into a frozen lake.

“Can I see her now?”

Huo Jinyan clenched his fists. He wanted to see her. He wanted to… hold her…

Seeing Huo Jinyan like this, the man finally realized who he was worried about.

He immediately brought his hands up in an attempt to calm Huo Jinyan down.

“Mr. Huo, calm down. According to Miss Lu’s confession, she wasn’t really assaulted. That boy only attempted to, and Miss Lu defended herself…”

Seeing that Huo Jinyan looked like he was about to kill someone, he hurriedly said this.

Lin Ci was frightened by the statement, and her eyes turned red.

“Are we really not allowed to see her?”

The man sighed. “We can’t let her meet anyone during the investigation.”

However, looking at Huo Jinyan, he said again, “Mr. Huo, how about this? I’ll bring you to see her, but you can’t talk about the case. Is that okay?”

He was really afraid that Huo Jinyan, this madman, would do something in a fit of anger. If he rushed in and injured the boy, this matter would become even more serious.

So, he hoped he would settle for the next best thing. As long as they did not talk about the case, they could meet. Huo Jinyan nodded. “Sure.”

The man nodded. “Then come with me.’

When they walked out, they bumped into Lu Qing, who was rushing over.

Lu Qing looked up and saw Lin Ci. Her eyes were red and she looked like she had just cried.

Lu Qing walked over and looked at her. “What’s wrong? Did you get hit?” He quickly lowered his head to check if Lin Ci was injured.

Lin Ci was stunned and looked at him. “I’m fine. Shouldn’t you be worried about Ningning now? Why are you looking at me?”

Lin Ci never had a good temper around him.

The police officer on the other side called for Lu Qing, “Mr. Lu, over here.”

Lu Qing nodded and looked up at Huo Jinyan. Then, he turned around and followed the police officer.

“Mr. Huo, come with me.’

Before they could enter, two more people suddenly rushed in from outside.

“Huo Jinyan.”

He called out to Huo Jinyan from behind.

Huo Jinyan turned around and saw Gu Chen and a man in sportswear beside him. He donned a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and his features were outstanding.

His appearance gave a sloppy impression.

Gu Chen looked at the police officer standing behind Huo Jinyan and said to him, “Hello, this is Lu Nings lawyer. Can we see Lu Ning now?”

Huo Jinyan glanced at the man in sportswear…
