Chapter 24: Severance of Relations

Seeing Xiao Zengfu's eyes flickering, as if he still had a glimmer of hope, Liu Lin simply added another dose of fierce material to him: "Take 10,000 steps back and think about it, even if the police believe in your innocence, but the crime of kidnapping and extortion with a gun is clear and clear, if an impulse hurts someone, the crime will be even heavier, and then a lawsuit will start, will our store even sell enough to hire a lawyer for him?" ā€

Xiao Zengfu was so worried that his beard and eyebrows were pinched together, "That...... So what do you say? ā€

Liu Lin gritted her teeth, "The only way at the moment is to announce in public that the police and reporters are there, so as not to be implicated by him!" ā€

"What?" Xiao Zengfu was anxious and angry, "That's my own son, how can I let it go?" ā€

Liu Lin shook his head, "It's not that you don't care, but you have to pay attention to a strategy, don't worry, listen to me, the so-called severance of the father-son relationship is just verbal talk, what is missing is just the guardianship of Yang Zai, he will be 18 years old in a few months, what difference does it make if this guardianship is left or not?" When he returns, who won't take him as a part of the family? Something that shouldn't be said, when the two of us get old, will this property be missing his share? ā€

According to his own train of thought, Liu Lin analyzed in a clear manner: "On the other hand, if we have severed relations with him on the surface, the court will definitely appoint a public defense lawyer to him, and your eldest brother, isn't he a famous lawyer himself, watching his only nephew commit a crime, can he, as an uncle, stand by and watch?" ā€

After listening to Liu Lin's analysis, Xiao Zengfu was a little moved, but he really couldn't be ruthless and couldn't wipe his son to ignore his parents and children at this juncture, and couldn't help but hesitate: "Even if you don't do what you say, the eldest brother can't ignore Yangzai."

Liu Lin glanced at him angrily, "You are stupid, think about how your eldest brother usually treats you, you work day and night in the store, he has to share more than half of the dividends regardless of his, and even your own building has to bear half of the store rent, even if he is willing to defend Yang Zai, will this lawyer's fee be undercounted for you?" ā€

Seeing that Xiao Zengfu still couldn't make up his mind, Liu Lin changed his tone and persuaded in a more tactful tone: "Just like I said just now, this is just an expedient measure, when the limelight passes, let's go to the prison to visit him a few more times, and tell the matter away, he will definitely understand, suffer some hardships in it, hone his temperament, it is not a good thing for him to taste it, do you say this is the truth?" ā€

After thinking about it again and again, Xiao Zengfu really couldn't think of a better way to deal with it-or to escape the problem in front of him, he couldn't withstand Liu Lin's repeated persuasion, and gritted his teeth, "Okay, just do what you say!" ā€

Liu Lin quietly grabbed him, raised his chin to the several media interview cars that had just stopped outside the store, and whispered: "Don't worry, wait a while for more reporters, we may be able to sell this news for a good price - at least let them take care of our business, you go and stabilize them first, and I will change the price on the menu......"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Yes, Sunny is my son, and I am extremely remorseful for the crime he committed, and I would like to solemnly apologize to Ms. Jodie Foster and her family, as well as to all those who have been implicated and hurt by this incident, but unfortunately, I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything about it, because we have officially severed the father-son relationship a few days ago, just as he ran away from home......"

Looking at the cheap dad who was talking eloquently in front of the camera, and Liu Lin who was standing beside him and raising his hand from time to time to wipe his tears, Xiao Yang was stunned - he didn't expect the police to find out his details so quickly, it seems that these guys are not all rice buckets like in film and television dramas.

What he didn't know was that the manager on duty at the hotel where he stayed last night reported the news to the police, and sold it to the TV station, and the staff of the TV station privately resold it to a good colleague.

"Well, in a sense, I'm also famous." Xiao Yang shook his head with a wry smile, and said to himself in his stomach, as for the reaction of his cheap father and Aunt Liu, it was expected by him early on, but it would not surprise him too much.

This crying and laughing expression caused some misunderstanding on Judy next to the cold eyes, "Your parents? ā€

Xiao Yang glanced back at her, "To be exact, it's my father and his girlfriend." ā€

Judy smiled sympathetically, "I'm sorry for you." ā€

"Thank you." Xiao Yang didn't try to explain anything, just replied in the other party's tone: "You should feel fortunate to have a mother who understands you and supports you - she is a great woman." ā€

Politely thanking her, Judy had a whim: "By the way, my mother will be ...... in the future What do you think? ā€

Xiao Yang thought back for a moment and said: "As she gets older, she will gradually develop Alzheimer's disease, you know for most seniors, this is inevitable, but in the future 20 years from what I can see, she is still alive and well, if that makes you feel comfortable." ā€

Judy thought for a moment and nodded slowly, "Maybe, but at least it will make me cherish my mother and my family more." ā€

Xiao Yang smiled approvingly, and suddenly remembered another family on the other side of the ocean, his parents, and his wife, who was in elementary school, were silently thinking about how to get in touch with them after the current matter, when the phone rang again.

Pressing the hands-free button, Roman Carr's voice came out: "I got the list you wanted." ā€

"Uh-huh." Xiao Yang didn't plan to look for a pen and paper, and stood next to the telephone with his hands on his chest, "I'm listening." ā€

After about five minutes of reading out the names of the media and reporters in turn, Roman Carr finally asked, "So, what are we going to do next?" ā€

"I'll let you know in a few minutes." Xiao Yang kept his original posture and didn't move, waiting for a blind tone to come from the phone before grabbing the earpiece and patting it on the circlip, "Any suggestions, Judy?" ā€

"What?" Judy was stunned for a moment, "What advice?" ā€

"It's about inviting a few media outlets to come in and interview on the spot." Xiao Yang raised his finger and pointed out the window, "I don't know much about these media representatives present, and I don't know who is hosting the program with more audiences, wider coverage, and greater influence, so I need the guidance of you, a professional." ā€

Hearing that he actually wanted to invite reporters in for an interview, Judy had the urge to laugh dumbly, but after thinking about it, taking the opportunity to make a name for himself was his purpose, and it would be abnormal not to do so.
