Chapter 982 - 974: The Actual Situation
"Go ahead, I’m fine." Hu Jingtang took a deep breath and said. Since Xiao Yifei said the situation wasn’t serious, then Liu Rui should be out of danger. Hu Jingtang finally relaxed his anxious heart.
"Earlier, Liu Rui and I visited the prison where his father is held and saw his father. After we came out today, Deng Fuguo took Liu Rui away. So, I came to see you to figure out a plan together. I don’t know what to do anymore," Xiao Yifei said.
"I see, well this situation isn’t as severe as I imagined. Since Liu Rui is out of danger, I’m relieved. He hasn’t committed any major crimes; he should be easily released, right? Liu Rui, this child, has been worrying us since childhood. I’ve been worrying for half a lifetime over him. You see this child, in the end, brings such trouble to me," Hu Jingtang said.
"Actually, what he did was quite serious. His charge is trespassing into the prison, although it didn’t cause any harm in the end. But this charge can be either big or small. If someone capitalizes on it, I’m afraid we might be helpless," Xiao Yifei noticed that Hu Jingtang was rather calm, so he told him the whole situation.
"Let me see if I know anyone relevant in this field," Hu Jingtang said, then opened his phone contacts to check one by one.
Hu Jingtang eventually gave up. Although he was a renowned doctor with a broad network, he found no one useful at the critical moment when he truly needed connections.
In despair, Hu Jingtang placed his last bit of hope on Xiao Yifei: "Xiao Yifei, I know you know a lot of people. You must find a way to save Liu Rui. You know this child lost his parents at a young age; his life has not been easy."
"I don’t want his life to end up like his father’s, spending it behind bars. You must find a way to save him. I’m begging you," Hu Jingtang said.
For a moment, Xiao Yifei felt exhausted hearing this. Why does everyone in this world seem to be asking him to help others?
In prison, Liu Bailong pleaded with him to take care of Liu Rui. Now, with Liu Rui in trouble, Liu Rui’s grandfather, Hu Jingtang, is also asking him. It’s not that Xiao Yifei doesn’t want to help, but he truly feels powerless.
