After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 511

On the way.

An Nuan received many phone calls.

Ye Jinghuai's parents, siblings, An Nuan's own parents, and others.

Because once the news spread, everyone knew that Ye Jinghuai had been arrested.

An Nuan responded to them all.

Finally, they arrived at the Procuratorate.

As the group entered, the staff member originally scheduled by Wang Xu to meet them had been notified of a temporary matter and left, replaced by another staff member to receive them.

The attitude was very cold and harsh, "Regarding the bail application you submitted, we cannot approve it. Since it involves a crime committed by a Ministry of Politics official, combined with the influence of external news, the suspect Ye Jinghuai will remain in custody until the trial, after which we will handle Ye Jinghuai based on the court's judgment."

An Nuan bit her lip.

So today's news was premeditated.

She forced herself to remain calm.

Wang Xu also did not act too aggressively, he asked, "Can I visit my client now, then?"

"No," the staff member refused bluntly, "Currently, our personnel are interrogating the criminal suspect, and outside interference is temporarily prohibited, as it may disrupt the investigation."

Wang Xu turned to look at An Nuan.

An Nuan could only remain silent.

Sometimes, money is truly worthless in the face of power.

Wang Xu compromised, saying, "Then can I obtain a copy of Ye Jinghuai's case file?"

"Yes," the staff member said coldly, "Sign according to the procedure, leave the receipt with me, and I'll give you the details of the case."

"Okay."

Wang Xu went to process it.

Qin Jiang and An Nuan waited outside.

Both were a bit unsettled.

But both were also trying their best to remain composed.

What should have taken only a few tens of minutes to handle took Wang Xu an entire morning, and it wasn't until noon that he finally completed all the preparations and obtained the detailed content of Ye Jinghuai's case.

Back in the car.

Wang Xu was studying the case.

An Nuan was also looking.

Qin Jiang was a bit agitated, "They're doing it on purpose, these people are doing it on purpose!"

He probably couldn't hold it in any longer.

So he had to vent.

An Nuan glanced at Qin Jiang but didn't stop him.

She was well aware that there would be more frustrations with this case in the future.

They could only adjust themselves.

The car returned to Ye Jinghuai's villa.

After looking through the file contents, Wang Xu analyzed the case situation, "The facts of Jinghuai's crime are very clear. During the nearly half a year he was in office in Jiang City, he was in charge of two major construction projects in the local economic zone, from land planning to contractor recommendations, and more. From the case contents we've obtained so far, Ye Jinghuai kept two sets of fake accounts for these two projects, and through these fake accounts, he embezzled over 50 million in ill-gotten gains. Most damning of all, this embezzled cash was found during the search of Ye Jinghuai's home!"

"Found at Jinghuai's home?!" Qin Jiang said in disbelief, "How could there possibly be that much cash at his home, they must be slandering him!"

"It's hard to slander with this." Wang Xu handed Qin Jiang the photos, "These are pictures from the search for cash at Jinghuai's home. When we received these photos, the other party must have had full video surveillance. It's unlikely to be faked."

"Would Jinghuai himself not know about having so much cash at his home?" Qin Jiang couldn't understand.

"I finally understand why the Ministry of Politics was so eager to have Ye Jinghuai return for a week of transition, and even promoted him," An Nuan spoke with great anger, "It was a diversion tactic. They lured Ye Jinghuai away, letting him be distracted with matters in Qing City, while secretly planting the money in his home during that time, without him being any the wiser. Now that he's been reported for embezzlement, they just went directly to Ye Jinghuai's home and, in plain sight, seized the cash they had previously planted. With evidence and all, Ye Jinghuai can't clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River!"

"Damn it!" Qin Jiang swore, "I expected he might be set up, but I didn't think it would be in this manner!"

An Nuan looked at Qin Jiang.

What did he mean by 'expected'?!

But Qin Jiang didn't explain.

He said, "Then what do we do now? The evidence of his crime is so blatant!"

Wang Xu was also a bit anxious.

From a professional lawyer's perspective, the chances of overturning this case were very slim.

"Lawyer Wang, according to the laws of North Wen Country, if someone like Ye Jinghuai committed this crime but returned all the money and showed a good attitude in admitting guilt, what would be the minimum sentence?"

"Since it's a major crime involving a large sum, but as you said, if everything is resolved very well, five to ten years."

"Five to ten years?!" Qin Jiang clearly couldn't accept it.

Yet An Nuan remained quite calm.

Because she felt that since the other party had already gone to such lengths, they absolutely wouldn't let Ye Jinghuai off with just five to ten years in prison!

There might be another plot.

And if there was a new plot, there would still be a chance to find evidence.

"An Nuan, why are you suddenly so calm?" Qin Jiang looked at her, somewhat angered, "Five to ten years, and Jinghuai will be out when the world has changed!"

An Nuan took a deep breath and said, "Qin Jiang, has your father found out whether any Aristocratic Families are involved?"

Qin Jiang paused, then quickly said, "Let me ask."

He walked aside with his phone.

After a while, he returned with a worried expression, "My father said he's already quietly looked into it, but only knows that the Ministry of Politics is taking this case very seriously. For now, there's no clear indication that any Aristocratic Families are directly involved in handling this case."

An Nuan nodded, as she had also guessed as much.

The Ministry of Politics is under the control of the Aristocratic Families.

Since the Ministry of Politics could act as an accomplice, then this case must be masterminded by the Aristocratic Families!

An Nuan frowned.

She couldn't quite understand now.

Why would the Aristocratic Families target Ye Jinghuai?!

She only knew that Gu Yan Sheng certainly couldn't stand to see Ye Jinghuai do well, but Gu Yan Sheng had already been abandoned by the Aristocratic Families. How could he possibly have the ability to make the Aristocratic Families help him again!

An Nuan was lost in thought.

"An Nuan," Qin Jiang was quite unsettled, seeing An Nuan's mind wandering elsewhere.

He was on the verge of a breakdown!

An Nuan's eyes flickered, "Do you think Ye Jinghuai would be so easily manipulated?"

Qin Jiang paused.

At that moment, he was clearly reminded by An Nuan's words.

He affirmed, "No."

"During the time Ye Jinghuai was in Jiang City, he was well aware that he might be schemed against, so he must have been cautious in his actions. The reason he was eventually entrapped was precisely because he wasn't easy to scheme against," An Nuan analyzed. "To untie the bell, we need the one who tied it. Since Ye Jinghuai ran into trouble in Jiang City, we should go to Jiang City and take a look!"

She had a feeling that everything couldn't be so seamless.

Ye Jinghuai couldn't possibly have allowed the other party to do everything so seamlessly!
