Episode 15 recap: Luo Huai Gong personally took charge of buying the land.
Luo Huai Gong went to meet the boss of Caiyun Group, hoping to facilitate the collaboration. However, the boss of Caiyun Group didn't pay much attention to her. The intermediary introduced both parties and then left. Secretary Su started discussing the idea of cooperation, but the other party said that there was no need for further discussion if they wanted to collaborate.
After Su's secretary returned, she informed Luo Huai Gong about the situation. Luo Huai Gong realized that she would have to take matters into her own hands. Subsequently, Luo Huai Gong arranged a meeting with Long Guo Hao. Knowing that today's visit from Luo Huai Gong meant trouble, Long Guo Hao was straightforward and admitted that she came to acquire the piece of land he possessed. The price was negotiable, and Luo Huai Gong even had the transfer agreement ready, waiting for the other party's signature.
After reviewing the agreement in Luo Huai Gong's hands, Long Guo Hao felt that she was blatantly trying to snatch it. Later, Luo Huai Gong handed him a check, displaying a strong and assertive demeanor. Realizing that he couldn't compete with Luo Huai Gong, Long Guo Hao had no choice but to agree.
Luo Huai Gong successfully obtained the land. However, at this moment, Qu's wife suddenly called him, informing him that they needed to go to the police station. The two of them hurriedly rushed over. It turned out that Qu's daughter had died in an accident, and as a result, Qu was admitted to the hospital. Later, the police questioned him, and based on Qu's recollection, there was only one person named Wang Peng who was likely to seek revenge. Initially, Qu had violated the building regulations and was asked to demolish his property. Wang Peng threatened Qu and said that he would face consequences, with his daughter being the target.
Long Guo Hao stood on the rooftop, recklessly throwing money around. He had also consumed a considerable amount of alcohol, knowing that he couldn't escape this time. After finishing his drink, he jumped from the building and died on the spot. Now, Long Guo Hao had left a heap of debts, and Luo Huai Gong had also invested a substantial amount of money. This time, they had incurred significant losses.
Originally, Luo Huai Gong wanted to seek help from Qu, but Qu was now fully focused on his daughter's case and had no intention of dealing with other matters.
Soon, Wang Peng was arrested and taken to the detention center as the prime suspect. The situation was highly unfavorable for Wang Peng since he had previously threatened Qu, and many people were aware of it. The goal now was to make him confess honestly. If he behaved well during his sentence, he could be released soon.
Wang Peng admitted that he could confess to the murder charge, but he vehemently denied the rape charge. He refused to let his daughter be disgraced, and he claimed that he had never committed such an act. Eventually, the lawyer agreed to his request. Luo Huai Gong also approached the responsible person at the district court, hoping to expedite the handling of the case. After all, she had already invested a substantial amount of money that had yet to be recovered.
Luo Huai Gong also mentioned Zheng Duo's case in passing. She intentionally stated that Zheng Duo was a good person and that the previous incident was a grave injustice. However, they accepted the court's verdict. After Wang Peng was released from the detention center, he was directly taken to the court for trial. Niu Geng assigned Ma La Song to handle the case, which was his first time handling such a significant case independently. Naturally, he felt a bit nervous, but Liu Yueyang and Wang Mo were there to encourage him not to be anxious. Qi Heng also came to cheer them on and told them that the case had garnered considerable attention. Although it was a non-public trial, Qi Heng emphasized the importance of approaching the matter from a standpoint of justice.
Qu's wife had not yet recovered from the loss of her daughter. Qu was still waiting for the court to determine the situation. After all, his daughter was his everything, and he never expected such an incident to occur. Wang Peng was brought to court, now also facing intentional injury charges. The prosecutor presented the relevant accusations, but Wang Peng simply pleaded guilty.
Next, Ma La Song proceeded with the regular questioning of Wang Peng. Ma La Song noticed that Wang Peng's hand involuntarily twitched. However, Wang Peng's testimony in court was inconsistent, considering that he had never committed such an act. For him, the goal was to quickly conclude this matter by confessing.
