Sent to the countryside, I turned the health center into a top-tier hospital.

Cao Yu couldn't stand being questioned, especially by a stranger's lawyer who suspected him of being wrong. He instantly became anxious, his arrogance got the better of him, and he completely lost his composure.

"My words and actions were inappropriate? That's a joke!"

He scoffed, his face full of disdain. "What problem could I possibly have? It's just that this country bumpkin is narrow-minded and petty!"

"I just chatted with Zhou Jie a bit more last night, trying to build a closer working relationship, and I even touched her arm. What's the big deal?"

"Was it really necessary to resort to violence and beat me to death?"

"To put it bluntly, it's just low self-esteem and a fragile ego. They're jealous because I'm a permanent staff member at the provincial procuratorate and have family connections, so they're just using this as an excuse to pick a fight!"

The moment those words were uttered, the flaw was completely exposed.

A barely perceptible glint flashed in Lin Xiaoran's eyes, but her face remained impassive as she continued, following his line of thought: "According to your logic, Wang Tao was indeed wrong. A little touching between colleagues is nothing at all."

"In Western etiquette, male and female colleagues express their gratitude by hugging and kissing."

"Yes, you're absolutely right!"

Upon hearing this, Cao Yu instantly felt a sense of goodwill towards Lin Xiaoran. "That Wang Tao, he really doesn't know who he is. Zhou Jie isn't his girlfriend, so why is he pretending to be a hero saving a damsel in distress?"

"I just hugged Zhou Jie, and she didn't say anything. This Wang Tao is getting all worked up, what an idiot..."

"Indeed, it was just a hug, but Wang Tao went too far with it."

Lin Xiaoran nodded. "If Zhou Jie didn't refuse, it's okay to hug her or even touch her."

"In this society, let alone touching, as long as both parties agree, it's not a big deal to do it anywhere."

Upon hearing Lin Xiaoran's words, Cao Yu's eyes lit up, and he took another look at Lin Xiaoran, who was dressed in professional attire.

A pencil skirt, white tights...

Moreover, judging from Lin Xiaoran's words, her thinking is quite avant-garde and open-minded.

"I wish Zhou Jie had thought the same way you did back then, but I also blame myself for being too impatient."

"I could win over a country girl like that in a few days, but I drank a bit too much last night and touched her directly, which probably scared her."

"That's why I shouted, which brought Wang Tao over, and I ended up getting beaten up for nothing."

Cao Yu is now somewhat regretful. He thinks that a country girl like Zhou Jie is the easiest to get.

He was just too hasty and acted too quickly, which scared the other person.

He never considered what he did to be a crime.

Hearing Cao Yu's words, a faint smile appeared on Lin Xiaoran's lips.

"You too, why are you in such a hurry? A light touch is fine, but how could you just touch her like that? How could the young girl not be scared?" Lin Xiaoran said.

"I was drunk at the time, and I couldn't control myself," Cao Yu said.

"How does it feel to the touch?" Lin Xiaoran suddenly asked.

Cao Yu was stunned for a moment, but then a lewd glint flashed in his eyes. "Not bad, but it's definitely not as good as your touch."

Lin Xiaoran smiled, not angry at all.

What he needed was Cao Yu in this state, a state in which he could say anything.

What man doesn't enjoy flirting with a beautiful woman?

"What are you saying? How can a child compare to me?"

Lin Xiaoran deliberately put on a flirtatious act, "If Zhou Jie hadn't screamed last night, and Wang Tao hadn't rushed over, you would have taken advantage of that young girl."

"Of course I'm going to play along. Otherwise, why would I spend money to treat them to dinner? It's just to find an opportunity to have my way with Zhou Jie," Cao Yu said without any suspicion.

"Very good!" Lin Xiaoran stood up, then turned and walked out.

Cao Yu was taken aback, not understanding why Lin Xiaoran suddenly got up and left.

Weren't we having a good chat?

"Hey beautiful, what's your name? I..."

Cao Yu tried to call out to Lin Xiaoran, but found that Lin Xiaoran had already disappeared.

Not at all, Lin Xiaoran looked at the recorder in her hand and a smile curved her lips.

"What an idiot..."

Lin Xiaoran cursed, then walked out of the People's Hospital and went to the alley behind it to retrieve the surveillance footage.

Although many businesses don't want strangers to see their surveillance footage, driven by her superpowers, Lin Xiaoran still managed to save the complete video of Cao Yu molesting Zhou Jie.

There are videos and audio recordings; these are irrefutable evidence. Cao Yu can't escape now.

Lin Xiaoran took out her phone and sent Chen Ping an OK gesture.

Chen Ping instantly understood, ran out of the People's Hospital, and met up with Lin Xiaoran at the hospital entrance.

"Did you get the recording too?"

Chen Ping asked.

After all, it's very difficult to get information out of a person with a normal mind, since no one will say anything that is detrimental to them.

"Of course, don't forget I'm a top-notch lawyer."

As she spoke, Lin Xiaoran took out a voice recorder and played the recording for Chen Ping.

Upon hearing Lin Xiaoran's words and tone, Chen Ping suddenly felt his mouth go dry.

Seeing Chen Ping's expression, Lin Xiaoran smiled and said, "Special matters require special methods. Although I am a lawyer, I am not someone who can only be serious."

"She can be talkative, sweet, and teasing..."

Lin Xiaoran winked at Chen Ping, but Chen Ping pretended not to see it and kept licking his lips.

That's too direct...

A woman who is too direct is a serious test for a man.

Just as Chen Ping was starting to feel overwhelmed by Lin Xiaoran's intense gaze, his phone suddenly rang.

Chen Ping felt like he had been granted a pardon. He quickly answered the phone and took a few steps to the side.

The call was from Officer Gao. Cao Yu's parents had arrived at the police station and needed Chen Ping and the others to go there for mediation.

Chen Ping hung up the phone and drove straight to the police station with Lin Xiaoran.

In just over ten minutes, Chen Ping drove the car to the police station.

Officer Gao came out of the building to greet them.

"Cao Yu's parents have arrived and are in the mediation room."

He leaned closer and whispered a warning to Chen Ping: "Both of you have short tempers, so please bear with us if you say anything unpleasant later."

"After all, the child was beaten and is still in the hospital with six stitches in his head."

"When mediating, you should adopt a humble attitude, apologize more, and pay compensation as needed, then things will be easier to discuss."

Chen Ping nodded without replying, but a cold glint had already flashed in his eyes.

He was just waiting to see who would say nice things and who would lose money.

Lin Xiaoran stood to the side, her face expressionless.

Officer Gao was quite satisfied with the two men's attitude, thinking they had taken his advice to heart.

At the entrance to the duty room, Liu Wei was pacing back and forth. Seeing the two, he quickly came up to them: "Dr. Chen, Attorney Lin, how is it?"

Zhou Jie was sitting on the bench when she heard the noise. She stood up, twisting her hands together, and looked at them nervously.

"fine."

Chen Ping patted Liu Wei on the shoulder, "You guys wait here, Zhou Jie might need to give a statement in a bit."

Zhou Jie stiffened, but still nodded forcefully.

She was afraid of nothing for Wang Tao.
