Because new evidence needed to be retrieved, the day's proceedings continued with a different batch of evidence, and witnesses were successively called out to testify against Qin Meifen.
But Qin Meifen remained as stubborn as ever, refusing to admit anything.
By noon, more and more chains of evidence had been sorted out.
When Lu Hechen and Weilan were leaving, Lu Yuanhe approached with Lu Xiaoyun.
"Hechen, Weilan, where are you heading back to?" Lu Yuanhe asked.
Lu Hechen replied, "We're going to the Shen Family."
Lu Yuanhe nodded. "Alright, let's go together."
"No need, I'll go with Weilan," Lu Hechen made it clear that he didn't want to accompany them.
Lu Xiaoyun immediately and cautiously called out, "Big brother."
Lu Hechen glanced at her but didn't say anything, simply holding Weilan's hand and turning to leave.
Lu Xiaoyun stood there, pursing her lips, watching for a while without speaking again.
Lu Yuanhe sighed.
