Mr. Sang scoffed. "Can Meng Jinyang even afford to buy a piece of jade worth sixty million yuan? Even if this sum of money is peanuts to us, you can forget about extorting it from us.
"Yeah, I can’t afford it." Gu Mang laughed before slowly adding, "But Young Master Lu can."
Lu Chengzhou said nothing.
Jiang Shenyuan added, "Those who damage others’ valuable property are usually sentenced to three to seven years in prison."
"Lawyer Jiang," scoffed Mr. Sang’s lawyer. "I’m afraid there won’t be any imprisonment involved since sixty million is nothing to the Sang family." I didn’t think that I’d ever see Jiang Shenyuan be so unprofessional.
Mr. Sang placed his arms on the sofa’s armrest as he leaned back and said magnanimously, "Don’t worry, I’ll compensate Meng Jinyang to the tune of sixty million, but I’m suing Gu Mang to the end!"
"Compensate?" Jiang Shenyuan smiled. "The Sang family of the past might be able to afford the compensation, but I’m afraid not anymore."
The smile on Mr. Sang’s face disappeared. "What do you mean by that?"
The moment he said that, someone knocked on the office door.
Department Chief Zhao could not figure out who the newcomer was. After snapping to his senses, he said, "Come in."
The door opened, revealing Lu Shangjin and a few uniformed officers from the Prosecutor’s Office. Upon seeing Lu Shangjin, Mr. Sang’s heart leapt and his mind became tense. What is the head of the Prosecutor’s Office doing here?
Lu Shangjin was promoted from Ming City some time ago. When he first came to the capital, not many people held him in high regard despite his high post, as it was a well-known fact that he had fallen out with Old Madam Lu years ago. However, after meeting with his family once again, his son Lu Yang was sent to Red Scorpion, a sign that he had healed the rift between him and his family.
Department Chief Zhao stood up and asked, "Director-General Lu? Why are you here?"
