Joey could hear the urgency and worry in Chen Zhuo's tone.
She was silent for a few seconds and replied, "Special Assistant Chen, he and I have broken up. You shouldn't come to me."
"Lawyer Qiao, please listen to what I have to say. Lu's Group's latest mobile phone, the M60, has occupied the Asia-Pacific market in less than a month. This is a big blow to a certain brand in country F.
So they took advantage of Mr. Lu's business trip and tampered with him. Now he has been falsely accused of raping a movie star from country F and has been imprisoned. Lu's stock has dropped to its limit this morning.
Lawyer Qiao, this case involves many secrets of the group, and Mr. Lu wants you to help him fight this lawsuit. "
Joey knew that Chen Zhuo was not lying.
Before the M60 mobile phone was released, Lu Wenzhou was prepared to be hacked.
Because its release means announcing to the world that all parts of our mobile phones can be fully localized.
No longer controlled by certain countries.
This is a strong blow to some foreign brands of mobile phones.
They will not give up and will definitely try their best to stop it.
I didn't expect to use such despicable means.
Joey's fingertips holding the phone turned cold white.
She wanted to say that she could find another lawyer to fight the lawsuit, and she also wanted to say that she didn't want to have anything to do with Lu Wenzhou.
But the words came to his lips but were not spoken.
Because this is not a problem for Lu Wenzhou alone, nor is it a problem for the Lu Group, it involves the national level.
She had no reason to refuse to help her fellow citizens.
There is no reason to watch state-owned brands being framed.
Joey calmed down for a few seconds, and then asked in a deep voice, "What did he say?"
When Chen Zhuo heard this, his heart that had been holding on to him suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Mr. Lu said that he drank too much and that woman entered the room while he was sleeping. However, he never touched her, but his things were detected in her body. This is the key to this case."
The corners of Joey's lips moved slightly.
She knew Lu Wenzhou very well and was never good at drinking too much.
This should be the reason why Lu Wenzhou approached her to file this lawsuit.
He didn't want his privacy to be discovered by others.
Joey asked Chen Zhuo to give himself some time. This case is not that simple.
To put it bluntly, foreign countries want to suppress the launch of new M60 products and do not want our domestic brand mobile phones to control the market.
She knocked on the door of Yan Xingcheng's office.
I saw him answering the phone and wanted to quit immediately.
But she heard Yan Xingcheng call her: "Joy, my father is looking for you."
Joey looked at him in astonishment.
Yan Xingcheng immediately handed her the phone and said with a serious expression, "It's official business, about Lu Wenzhou being detained by Country F."
Joey took the phone and heard Mr. Yan's somewhat majestic voice.
"Joy, I think Lu Wenzhou has sent someone to find you. The Lu Group is the economic pillar of our B City, and the M60 mobile phone is also the pride of our country. We must not let those villains from abroad succeed.
So please put aside your personal grudges and help Lu Wenzhou win this lawsuit. "
Mr. Yan spoke in his capacity as a city leader, and Joey had no reason to refuse.
She said calmly: "I know Mr. Yan, and I will do my best."
"Okay, if necessary, our government will fully support it."
Because the matter was urgent, Joey booked a flight to country F that afternoon.
We went directly from the airport to the detention center.
When he saw Lu Wenzhou walking out in prison uniform with his hands cuffed together, Joey felt a little short of breath at that moment.
After not seeing each other for a month, Lu Wenzhou looked much thinner.
The originally deep eyes are somewhat sunken, with obvious wrinkles at the end of the eyes.
She had never seen Lu Wenzhou in such a miserable state.
Joey stood there quietly, watching Lu Wenzhou walk towards her step by step.
Lu Wenzhou's always gloomy face suddenly revealed a smile the moment he saw Joey.
His voice was a little hoarse: "Yiyi, thank you for being willing to take my case."
Joey immediately lowered his eyelashes and said businesslikely: "I have been entrusted by the city leaders to be your attorney. Let's talk about the case next."
She took out the voice recorder and put it next to her, and wanted to start working.
But Lu Wenzhou's broken voice came to his ears.
"Yiyi, I haven't seen you for a month, how are you? Did you think about me when you couldn't sleep?"
"Yiyi, I miss you every day, so much."
He looked deeply at Joey, his handsome face full of sincerity.
Joey's fingertips holding the pen trembled slightly, and he was silent for several seconds before raising his head.
Suddenly, his eyes caught Lu Wenzhou's deep eyes.
She said in her usual voice: "Mr. Lu, I only have half an hour. I don't want to let down Mr. Yan's trust."
Lu Wenzhou smiled bitterly when he saw her businesslike look.
Then he began to tell her the entire case.
After everything was over, Lu Wenzhou looked at Joey with burning eyes, "Yiyi, I really don't know when that woman came in. I didn't do anything to her. You have to believe me, I will only touch you in my life. I will protect you like a jade."
Joey packed up his things and looked at him calmly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu. I will do my best to win this lawsuit. As for the rest, Mr. Lu doesn't need to."
After saying that, she took her things and turned around to leave.
"Yiyi."
Lu Wenzhou stood up and called her, his bloodshot eyes staring at her for a moment.
"Let's go eat first. You must have not eaten after flying for so long. The seafood here is good. Let Chen Zhuo take you to eat. The case cannot be completed in a day or two. Don't exhaust your body. I will feel sorry for you."
A slight smile emerged from the corner of Joey's lips: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I will be fine before I rescue you. I'm leaving first."
After saying that, she turned around and left without looking back.
Lu Wenzhou looked at her determined back, his heart throbbing in pain.
Joey was not like this before.
She would shed tears of distress when she saw him being hurt, but just now, he couldn't find a trace of distress in her eyes.
Did she really put him down?
But he fell deeper and deeper into it.
Joey had a simple meal and asked Chen Zhuo to take her to meet the little star.
The little star's name is Helena, the unpopular seventh princess in the royal family of country F.
If Joey guessed correctly, she must have cooperated with others to frame Lu Wenzhou, hoping to find a strong backer for herself and make the king treat her differently.
The two met in a coffee shop. The moment they saw Joey, Helena's dark blue eyes showed an indescribable look.
She looked Joey up and down, a slight smile appearing on her lips.
"Lawyer Qiao, I know you really want to rescue Lu Wenzhou, but with all the witnesses and evidence, you can't win this case unless..."
