My brother is reborn and his engagement is changed; my ex-sister-in-law is pregnant again and again.

If we were to ask who is the most miserable person in the world right now, it would definitely be Mr. Lin. His son's matter hasn't been resolved yet, and now his wife has run into trouble, and it's a heinous murder case. You can imagine how emotionally devastated Mr. Lin is right now. But even if he's emotionally devastated, Mr. Lin can't just hide away, because he needs to contact a lawyer as soon as possible.

In today's civilized society, even the most heinous criminal has the right to seek legal counsel. If no lawyer is available, the court will arrange for a public interest lawyer to assist them, at least to ensure procedural justice. However, whether or not a public interest lawyer is available doesn't really make much difference, for the simple reason that lawyers who provide such defenses don't receive any money.

"Mr. Lin, if what you say is true, then it's probably already very difficult."

After hearing everything the other party said, the lawyer's expression was grim. It wasn't that he didn't want to defend the other party, but it was simply that there was absolutely no room for defense. According to Lin's father, Liang Hongyan had been scouting the location for a long time, and the knife she was carrying was also specially purchased, so this constituted intentional homicide.

Moreover, the murder occurred at the doorway, which is a particularly heinous crime. Most importantly, the perpetrator stabbed the victim more than 30 times. Under such circumstances, who could possibly win a defense? The outcome is a foregone conclusion: a suspended death sentence or immediate execution. In the lawyer's view, the most likely outcome is the death penalty, with very low probability of a suspended death sentence.

"I know this is a difficult matter. I only have one request right now: can my wife live? I just need her to live, even if it's a suspended death sentence?"

At this point, Lin's father no longer hoped to get his wife out. He would be happy if she could survive with a suspended death sentence, at least he would have something to look forward to, wouldn't he? Hearing this, the lawyer sighed.

"I understand how you feel... but it's really difficult. All we can do is try our best to relate it to your eldest son's situation, saying that your wife's mental state is affected by your eldest son's situation, and there might even be a possibility of a suspended death sentence. But we hope you don't have too high expectations."

"Like I said before, in this situation, we strongly suggest you contact Lin Yuze. For people like them, this is really just a matter of a word. Maybe it won't get Ms. Liang out immediately, but at least her survival is guaranteed, isn't it?"

The lawyers understood that legal means were already difficult enough, so they had to resort to underhanded tactics. In reality, there was a certain probability between a suspended death sentence, a death sentence, and immediate execution. In this situation, if Lin Yuze mobilized his connections, it would be a suspended death sentence; but if the other side was unwilling to mobilize their people, it would be an immediate death sentence. So, ultimately, it depended on whether Lin Yuze was willing to help. If Lin Yuze was willing to help, everything would be easy to handle, and the lawyers wouldn't even need to make any preparations; they could just wait for the trial to begin.

If Lin Yuze is unwilling to help, the lawyer feels that he doesn't need to spend too much time, because no matter how much he prepares, it won't be very effective.

"But is he willing to help now?"

Mr. Lin felt somewhat helpless about his second son. He understood his son's hatred for the entire family, and he felt guilty about what to say to his son. He really didn't know how to talk to his son about this. After hearing this, the lawyer spoke for a moment and then coughed.

"I think you should give it a try. After all, she's Lin Yuze's mother. Maybe she'll help out of some past relationship. Besides, even if she's unwilling to help, you won't lose anything, right?"

"I understand, I'll give him a call."

"If there's nothing else on your end, I'll be going now. If there are any changes over there, I hope you can contact me as soon as possible. We can't guarantee anything else, but we will do our best."

After seeing the lawyer off, Mr. Lin sat on a chair nearby, feeling a mix of emotions. He looked at his phone, lost in thought. The screen showed Lin Yuze's number. After hesitating for a moment, Mr. Lin finally dialed the number.

It was 11 p.m. for Lin Yuze, and he was still awake. When he heard his phone ring, Lin Yuze picked it up and saw that it was his father calling. He knew why his father was contacting him. After thinking for a moment, Lin Yuze went to the balcony and answered the phone.

"Is there something you need? If so, please tell me quickly, I have other things to do."

"Yuze, can you please save your mother?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuze was slightly taken aback, but then he laughed because he didn't understand why his father would have the nerve to say such a thing.

"I don't understand what this means. Why do they want me to save her?"

"As you know, your mother was devastated by what happened to your brother, so she killed Qin Mei. I contacted a lawyer today, and the lawyer's opinion is that unless there are special circumstances, it will basically be an immediate death sentence. If you can persuade Xiao Rui to help contact someone, even a suspended death sentence might be possible, considering that she was carried for ten months and gave birth to Qin Mei. Could you please save your mother?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuze's face was full of disdain. He really didn't know how this guy had the nerve to say such a thing.

"This matter has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to get involved. Since it's because of my brother, you should go to my brother and try to find a solution, not me. I'm doing quite well now and don't want to get involved in your messy affairs. I think I've made my stance clear enough, haven't I?"

Upon hearing this, Lin's father felt his heart sink. Although he knew the other party was unlikely to help, he still felt a sense of despair when the other party actually said those words.

"I know you hate us, but she's still the mother who gave birth to you. Why are you so cold-blooded? No, we don't need your life either."

"The surgery you made me have a few months after I was born saved my brother's life. In my opinion, the surgery I risked my life for was already a way of repaying your kindness in giving me life. As for the rest, there is no more grace. So do you understand? This matter has nothing to do with me. If you do something wrong, you should accept the punishment. That is my attitude. If you are unwilling, then do whatever you want."

After saying this, Lin Yuze hung up the phone immediately. Looking at the disconnected phone, Lin's father felt a mix of emotions. He threw the phone on the ground, showing just how angry he was.

"What should we do? What should we do now?"

Lin's father's voice trembled. He dared not think about how he would live in this world if his wife really died. Now that Lin Yuze was no longer going to agree, he could only choose the last option, which was to go directly to the Su family.

He knew he wouldn't be welcomed at the Su family's house at this time, because of Lin Yuze. The Su family, from top to bottom, disliked the entire Lin family. But he had no choice; even knowing they disliked him, he had to go. Half an hour later, when Lin's father appeared at the entrance of the Su family's old house, he felt a little nervous. He didn't know what he would face next, or whether they would be willing to lend a helping hand. If they were willing, that would be best, but if they weren't, Liang Hongyan would have no way out.

Even if Lin Yuze and the Su family were willing to save Liang Hongyan at this point, given her current condition, she definitely wouldn't live for very long. She would learn to end her own life. In her eyes, her eldest son's life was far more valuable than her own. If her eldest son was gone, what great meaning or value would her life have in this world?

When Old Master Su heard that Lin's father had arrived, he frowned. But since he was already there, it would be inappropriate to send him away now. So after thinking for a moment, he had his servants bring him in.

"It must be about Liang Hongyan. I heard that Liang Hongyan killed the eldest daughter of the Qin family. I guess she came to find us for this matter."

At this moment, Mr. Su said this, and Mrs. Su nodded in agreement.

"It must be because of this. They've probably already contacted Yuze, but judging from his reaction, he's probably not very willing to support or help. Otherwise, they could have just let Yuze and Su Rui decide, instead of coming to us."

"You didn't treat yourself well before, and now that your second son is in trouble, all you think about is your second son. If I were Lin Yuze, no matter how much you ask, I would never help him."

At this moment, Old Master Su nodded and sighed.

"Apart from Yuze, there really aren't any good people in the Lin family."

Old Master Su was well aware of the family's absurd and disastrous past. He thought about how powerful his old brother had been in the past, but of his descendants, only Li Yuze was somewhat capable; the rest were simply a bunch of good-for-nothings.

Unbeknownst to them, Lin's father had also been brought here.

"Uncle Su."

Upon seeing Grandpa Su sitting in the chair, Lin's father quickly called out. Hearing this, Grandpa Su nodded, gesturing for him to sit down. Lin's father sat down, looked at Grandpa Su, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"You probably know why I'm here. I really have no other choice, so I'm hoping you can help me, at least to see if she can survive."

Upon hearing this, Old Master Su looked at Lin's father.

"We've heard a bit about this, but there really isn't a better way. Although you didn't graduate with a law degree, you should know very well what this means. Anyone who gets involved in this won't have a good ending. We can't take such a big risk. Besides, we're all retired now. Xiao Rui is the head of the Su's Investment Group. If Xiao Rui doesn't want to, we don't have a better way to deal with it."

Although the other party said that Su Rui was unwilling, Lin's father wasn't stupid and naturally understood that they were just using that as a reason to reject him. After hearing this, Lin's father lowered his head.

"Uncle, I really have no other choice."

At this moment, Lin's father stood up and knelt on the ground with a thud. It was clear that he had broken down emotionally. Seeing this scene, Grandpa Su also felt a mix of emotions.

"Just live well. There's really no other good way. If I were you, I wouldn't get involved in their affairs right now, because it won't change anything and will only leave me exhausted."

After leaving those words, Old Master Su turned and left. Watching his departing figure, Lin's father didn't know what else to say. The Su family had still refused to help. In fact, he had considered this outcome before coming, but the reality was somewhat different from when this actually happened.

"Mr. Lin, let's go this way first."

Upon seeing this, a nearby staff member quickly approached and gestured for Mr. Lin to leave. In reality, this meant he could simply leave and not waste his time. What could Mr. Lin say in this situation? He could only struggle to his feet. Perhaps because he had knelt too forcefully, his knees were now aching, causing him some discomfort.

From entering to leaving, it took less than 20 minutes. As he stepped out of the Su family's gate, Lin's father looked up at the sky and felt that it was somewhat hazy, just like his mood.

Meanwhile, in the interrogation room, Liang Hongyan confessed to everything she had done without any hesitation. She had no desire to live anymore; in her eyes, death would be a relief.
