Chapter 157

When he saw the news, Huo Jian Sheng came straight here.

Others couldn\'t come in, but Huo Jian Sheng used a bit of his influence and got in, which wasn\'t difficult for him.

"Can\'t I come?" Huo Jian Sheng pulled a chair and sat down expressionlessly.

"Hehe, of course you can..." Li Man\'s lips curled up, and she awkwardly laughed a few times, not knowing what to say.

"Are you scared?" Huo Jian Sheng asked.

"Mm." Li Man lowered her eyelids.

Huo Jian Sheng lowered his voice and said, "Don\'t be afraid. I\'ll take care of things for you. Try to speak as little as possible."

Li Man suddenly looked up at Huo Jian Sheng. "Why do you want to help me?"

Huo Jian Sheng remained expressionless. "I want to help, that\'s all. There\'s no particular reason."

Li Man lowered her eyelids again. "Thank you!"

"What? You\'re not happy that I\'m helping you?" Huo Jian Sheng asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Happy." Li Man said in a muffled voice.

"Then what\'s with that expression?" Huo Jian Sheng asked, confused.

Li Man looked at Huo Jian Sheng. "Because I didn\'t expect you to help me. We\'re nothing to each other, not even friends, right? You helping me like this, I don\'t know how to repay you... It puts a lot of pressure on me. Of course, I\'m grateful that you\'re willing to help me. I do need someone\'s help, so I still need to thank you. Thank you for being willing to help me."

"So, in your heart, we\'re not even friends?" Huo Jian Sheng felt uncomfortable for some reason.

Li Man looked at him strangely. "Are we... friends?" How did she not know?

"We\'ve had meals together. Doesn\'t that count as being friends?" Huo Jian Sheng said irritably.

Oh, so having meals together means being friends.

Li Man thought it was easy to become Huo Jian Sheng\'s friend.

But she was afraid that saying that would hurt Huo Jian Sheng, so she said, "I thought you wouldn\'t consider me a friend."

That was also true because Huo Jian Sheng always saw her at her worst.

Huo Jian Sheng\'s face softened, and he said, "Why would I think that?"

Li Man was deeply moved and sincerely said, "Thank you, Mr. Huo. Thank you for considering me a friend."

Huo Jian Sheng waved his hand. "Alright, I can\'t stay too long. I\'ll get you a lawyer. You should know what to say and what not to say."

"Thank you! How much will the lawyer\'s fee be? I\'ll repay you later." Li Man said.

Huo Jian Sheng glanced at Li Man. "Let\'s talk about that later. I\'m leaving."

Huo Jian Sheng\'s lawyer was the company\'s lawyer, one of the best in the industry. It was not easy to hire him even with money.

...

When the police came to ask Li Man again, she said, "I can\'t remember anymore. I was so scared at the time. I\'ve never experienced such a scene before. I was terrified, and I have nightmares every night. I\'m really scared, I..."

Li Man choked up and couldn\'t speak, sobbing softly.

"The police didn\'t get much information from Li Man, and coupled with the effectiveness of Huo Jian Sheng\'s lawyer, the court\'s verdict came quickly. Li Man\'s actions were deemed self-defense and she was not held criminally responsible.

When Li Man received the verdict, she finally let go of the worry that had been weighing on her.

It had been over a month since Li Man committed the murder until the verdict was delivered.

During this month, Li Man had been recuperating in the hospital.

Chen XiaoHui could be said to have been given a second chance at life, and it took her more than a month to fully recover."
