Chapter 538: Sister Nian: I’m Poor, but I Can Afford a Lawyer At this juncture, Shen Jingyan couldn’t be bothered to protect his ego any further and played the ‘Uncle’ card.

He quietly said, “How about this, I’ll take another step back. I’ll find a way to get Chen Yuan to continue his studies, it will surely not affect his attending university. Additionally, the compensation sum I mentioned earlier will be in effect as well. I’ll also find a way to get his father to be transferred to a hospital in Beijing. If Professor Liang Lu can help out, I will get her help in treating his father. If she can’t, I will get another skilled specialist. In any case, I’ll do all I can to get his father treated… is this alright?”

He really thought that his conditions were extremely appealing.

A million yuan, the best hospital in Beijing, a skilled specialist—all things that Chen Yuan would never have been able to achieve in this lifetime.

As for Qiao Nian…

Shen Jingyan looked at the girl opposite him with a sophisticated expression. This girl was sitting in a casual position, as leisurely as anyone could get. Besides the exceptionally pretty face beneath her cap, she looked no different from an ordinary girl.

But this matter really changed his view and understanding of Qiao Nian…

He subconsciously tightened his grip on his cup as his eyes glinted. He thought about the call Wei Dongshan received before he left earlier today and felt his heart tighten.

Wei Dongshan canceled her student status the previous night.

Today, he received a call saying that the higher-ups were going to investigate this matter. They even said that Wei Dongshan was abusing his power and would undergo investigation as well.

Usually, if someone underwent investigation, the outcome wouldn’t just be a simple punishment.

Wei Dongshan evidently offended someone extraordinary!

He couldn’t tell how much backing Qiao Nian had at this point. Both superpowers, Old Master Su and the Ye family lad had gotten themselves involved in Wei Qi’s affairs.

He couldn’t tell whether these two people were contacted by the powerful Old Master in the Jiang Family, or if it was the case speculated by Wei Dongshan, that Old Master Su knew Qiao Nian personally!

He was able to swallow the first possibility, but the second was simply incredulous. He was extremely doubtful about it.

If Su Huaiyuan and Ye Wangchuan were both really standing up for Qiao Nian, wouldn’t it make him an idiot for choosing Qiao Chen over her previously!

Shen Jingyan didn’t wish to think about it. He tried to play the kinship card to get Qiao Nian on his side. He said gently, “Nian Nian, I have been thinking about his interests time and again because he’s your friend. If this goes on, everyone will get hurt.”

“Are you done talking?”

Qiao Nian picked up her glass and took a sip of her lemon water, then put it down. She grabbed her belongings, stood up, and then said to him, “Uncle Shen, since you’ve come to see me, it means that you’ve already seen Wei Qi’s documents. I’m already taking a step back and compromising on your account. If you think that Wei Qi is suffering a loss by doing this, then Chen Yuan and I can go by legal procedures. As for the money you mentioned… Chen Yuan doesn’t have it, but I do have some. It should be enough to fight a lawsuit!”

If Gu San was around, he would surely not be able to resist interjecting—”Big boss, your tiny pill can fetch an eight-figure sum, you call that ‘some’ money! That ‘some’ money of yours might just be able to knock the Wei Family, or at least Wei Ling and Wei Ying, down for a lifetime! Moreover, you have Master Wang as your backing. Causing them to go bankrupt would just be the beginning. Wei Qi would have to go to hell and back, and nobody can guarantee if he would survive!”

But Gu San wasn’t around and nobody was saying this.

Qiao Nian wouldn’t say this to Shen Jingyan, either.
