Chapter 94: Sowing Discord

As for Lu Bin Sun's conditions, Chen Mo readily agreed.

Although it's a bit more troublesome than directly taking out Liu Yaozu, this trouble is nothing compared to gaining an experienced business expert.

"No problem, I'll arrange for a lawyer to meet you as soon as possible. After you get out of prison, I guarantee I'll deliver Liu Yaozu into your hands."

Having said that, Chen Mo got up and left with Fei Ji.

"Mo Ge, are we done talking?"

The assassin Sha Shou Xiong at the door saw Chen Mo come out and immediately went up to him.

Chen Mo smiled: "We're done. From now on, help me take good care of Lu Bin Sun—you'll definitely get your share of the benefits."

"Sure, sure, this is my turf—I guarantee no one will bully him." Sha Shou Xiong patted his chest and promised.

Back at the bar, Ruby also helped Chen Mo set up a meeting with Sandy.

In the afternoon, Chen Mo went alone to a coffee shop on Mi Dun Dao.

Since it was on his own turf, Chen Mo didn't bring Fei Ji.

Not long after, Ruby and Sandy came in with their arms linked.

It seems their relationship is indeed good.

Chen Mo stood up and shook hands with Sandy: "Lawyer Liang, it's great to see you again."

"Hello, Mr. Chen. I don't know what the matter is for this meeting you arranged."

Sandy and Chen Mo shook hands lightly and sat opposite each other.

Ruby then sat down beside Sandy.

After they ordered, Chen Mo briefly explained the situation regarding Lu Bin Sun to Sandy.

"I don't know if Lawyer Liang has any way to get him out of Chi Zhu."

Sandy thought for a moment: "What Mr. Chen just said, the verdict in this case is clearly too harsh. If we seek a reduced sentence, there is still hope."

"But getting him out of prison will probably be difficult; I need to first meet the parties involved and examine the case files."

Lu Bin Sun was caught while wielding a knife to attack Liu Yaozu.

Although he was convicted of attempted murder, the evidence is not very solid.

After all, the difference between murder and injury is just one character, yet the charges differ greatly.

If a reliable lawyer steps in, helping Lu Bin Sun get a reduced sentence is quite simple.

But reducing the sentence isn't Chen Mo's goal; he wants Lu Bin Sun to get out of Chi Zhu Prison as soon as possible.

"Then I'll leave it to Lawyer Liang. If there's any trouble, just come to me. I don't understand legal matters, but I can still handle other things."

Sandy, whether helping Lu Bin Sun be acquitted or get a reduced sentence, is not that simple.

Liu Yaozu will definitely keep an eye on Lu Bin Sun's situation.

Even if Sandy finds legal evidence to help Lu Bin Sun get a reduced sentence or be acquitted, Liu Yaozu will surely try to block it.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. I'll get back to you after I meet Mr. Sun."

"As expected of a professional senior lawyer, your work is rigorous." Chen Mo clapped and praised.

"Ruby told me your boyfriend is a police officer; you're helping our Triad Society members with lawsuits—won't he have objections?"

Chen Mo ultimately couldn't resist trying to sow discord between Sandy and her boyfriend.

"No way, Triad Society members are also citizens of Gangdao and should equally enjoy the right to hire a lawyer."

"Besides, I have an agreement with my boyfriend not to interfere in each other's work. Please rest assured, Mr. Chen, I won't leak case information to outsiders."

Sandy only thought Chen Mo was worried she'd leak case info to her boyfriend, not thinking otherwise.

"I trust Lawyer Liang's professional integrity." Chen Mo nodded.

For now, Sandy's relationship with her boyfriend seems to have no issues.

But that's just a matter of time.

Fang Zhixin is a police officer, naturally opposed to Triad Society members. Meanwhile, Sandy harbors no prejudice against Triad Society people.

Their worldviews don't match.

As for Sandy helping Triad Society members with lawsuits, Fang Zhixin surely has objections.

Perhaps he can tolerate it for now, but there will come a day when he can't.

After discussing the case, the three chatted a while longer. Chen Mo checked his watch: "You two, it's already mealtime—let's grab a meal together?"

"I'll pass; I still need to go to school to pick up Dahong after class. You two go ahead." Ruby gave Chen Mo a sideways glance and politely declined.

On one hand, she indeed needs to pick up Wei Dahong; on the other, she also doesn't want to disturb Chen Mo's flirting.

Although Sandy didn't catch Chen Mo's earlier sowing‑of‑discord remarks, she did pick up on them.

"What about Lawyer Liang? Surely she won't refuse me just because of my Triad Society background?"

"Alright, let Mr. Chen foot the bill."

Having been morally blackmailed by Chen Mo, Sandy simply couldn't refuse.

After Ruby left, the two found a nearby Western restaurant.

Before transmigrating, Chen Mo may not have been a social elite, but he had been exposed to a huge amount of information through short videos.

Chatting with Sandy, he could handle any topic and never ran out of things to say.

Over the course of the meal, Chen Mo successfully portrayed himself before Sandy as a erudite gentleman who, though having gone astray, still upheld justice.

Their relationship quickly grew close, and even their forms of address shifted from "Mr. Chen" and "Lawyer Liang" to "Mo Ge" and "Sandy."

Chen Mo felt he could already see the goal; all he needed was to break past the keeper to score.

The two spent over an hour on their Western meal and drank two bottles of red wine.

After the meal, Sandy was already a bit tipsy.

Chen Mo directly drove Sandy's car and sent her back to her apartment.

Originally, while on the way, Chen Mo wondered if it was possible to go upstairs and have a drink.

However, when they reached the apartment entrance, that idea was shattered.

Because Sandy's boyfriend, Fang Zhixin, was waiting at the apartment entrance.

Chen Mo directly parked the car beside Fang Zhixin, got out and warmly greeted him.

"Fang sir, what a coincidence, are you waiting for Sandy?"

Seeing Chen Mo get out of Sandy's car, Fang Zhixin's face momentarily turned unpleasant.

"Where's Sandy?"

"Mike, I'm here!" Sandy also got out of the front passenger seat.

Now the aftereffects of the red wine are starting to kick in, Sandy feels a bit dizzy.

Fang Zhixin hurried forward and steadied the slightly swaying Sandy.

"How are the two of you together?"

"Mo Ge needs my help with a lawsuit; we finished discussing the case this afternoon and then had a meal together."

Hearing Sandy's way of addressing Chen Mo, Fang Zhixin's face became even more unpleasant.

"Why didn't you call me after drinking? I could have come to pick you up!"

"It's fine, I only had one bottle of red wine. Plus Mo Ge drove me back, so you don't need to worry."

Fang Zhixin looked speechless; it's precisely because Chen Mo drove you back that he's worried.

"Fang sir, you'd better hurry and take Sandy home; I won't go inside."

Fang Zhixin pulled a face, glanced at Chen Mo, then helped Sandy into the car and himself ran to the driver's seat and sat down.

"Chen Mo, don't think that just because I can't find evidence of your drug dealing I'm powerless against you. I'll keep an eye on you!"

Having said that, Fang Zhixin directly drove Sandy's car into the residential complex.

Regarding Fang Zhixin's provocation, Chen Mo not only didn't get angry, but actually felt like laughing.

It seems Fang Zhixin's trust in Sandy is not deep.

Tomorrow, after Sandy sobers up, the two might still argue.

Breaking through this goalkeeper is not difficult.

Scoring a goal is within reach.
