Chapter 2196 The King Returns
Money talks, and embassies from various countries either sent people to visit in person or called to express their close attention to Zhang Ran's case.
To avoid causing a nationality dispute, the court was suspended and reopened, and the judge announced the acquittal in court.
A SUV was parked in front of the courthouse. Gu Jinxi, sitting in the back seat, watched Zhang Ran swagger out of the car window, walking with an air of nonchalance. Gu Jinxi smiled and instructed the driver, "Drive back to the old house."
Ever since the old man learned that Gu Jinhe had been arrested and imprisoned and that rumors of him being gay had spread, he had fallen ill and never recovered.
My second uncle and aunt realized that she was involved in this matter and wanted to deal with her, but the old man stopped them.
Before they could react, she had to take care of them all!
The SUV slowly drove away.
Zhang Ran's gaze was subconsciously drawn to the person inside the car, when suddenly she was grabbed and hugged.
"Xiaoyue!" Fu Qin was the first to rush over and hug Zhang Ran tightly, crying tears of joy. "It's alright, it's alright, we're all alright, that's wonderful." She knew Luo Yue was rich, but she never imagined she had so much money that she couldn't even count it all. She was an accountant! An accountant!
If she had known her best friend was so rich, she would have clung to her friend's coattails long ago. Why did she even bother looking for a job? She was framed and almost got imprisoned.
Fortunately, Luo Yue sent a lawyer to help her after learning about her situation. The time she spent in detention was something she would never forget. After her release, she vowed to repay Luo Yue's kindness and to be her only accountant for the rest of her life!
Keeping her promise, Dongfang Yue held a grand banquet to celebrate Zhang Ran's triumphant return.
Cheng Mingtai and others were also invited, but Mu Mingqi did not go. He said goodbye to Zhang Ran and flew back to S City.
After the banquet ended and they returned to the manor, Cheng Mingtai also said he had to take his leave. "I've already called Qiao Xi and the others. Although they're traveling abroad, they've been thinking about you. Now that you've been acquitted, it's time for them to go back home."
Zhang Ran put down her teacup and looked at him. "They won't see me when they come back. I need to go back to my hometown to handle my mother's funeral. Why don't we let them stay a few more days? Although Gu Jin was sentenced to life imprisonment in the first instance, he can be released at any time."
After weighing the pros and cons, Cheng Mingtai said, "I will explain the situation to them and let some of them return to China first."
Zhang Ran: "You can arrange it as you see fit."
After making the arrangements, Cheng Mingtai also left the capital.
Zhang Ran originally wanted to stay for a few days before dealing with her mother's funeral arrangements, but the police kept calling like they were on a mission, so she had no choice but to take Qiu Yu and Dong Chan to the police station.
As for Xie Wei, Zhang Ran disliked his good looks and thought he was a femme fatale, so she fired him directly.
Xie Wei wasn't angry at all; instead, he was extremely grateful and flew abroad to chase after Er Ya.
Although Er Ya was traveling abroad, her heart remained in China. She made several phone calls every day to Cheng Mingtai to check on the progress of the case.
Although she was engaged to Xie Wei, she took her anger out on him because of Zhang Ran's imprisonment. After going abroad, she never contacted him again or replied to his messages.
Xie Wei had been extremely anxious for a long time. Now that Zhang Ran had returned safely, he couldn't wait to fly abroad to find Er Ya.
After Chen Zhaodi died, his body was stored in the morgue, just like the other criminals.
Once the identity is confirmed, the police will contact the family to claim the body, then burn it to ashes for the family to take away, to prevent them from secretly burying the body.
