However, when talking about Long Haoxuan, Lu Yu inevitably showed some nervousness and worry.
And all this fell in Chen Mingyi's eyes.
"Lu Yu, do you dare to refute what I said?"
Chen Mingyi leaned back on his chair and asked Lu Yu calmly.
Lu Yu and Chen Mingyi looked at each other for two seconds and did not answer immediately.
"As long as you dare to say even a word of refutation, I will immediately make arrangements to hold a trial on Long Haoxuan's matter."
Chen Mingyi picked up the tea cup and spoke in a sonorous tone.
After Lu Yu and Chen Mingyi looked at each other for a few seconds, they slowly shook their heads.
"Tell me, what is your purpose?"
Lu Yu had already reacted at this time.
Chen Mingyi came to him today, it was definitely not a simple matter. In order to tell Lu Yu, he wanted to convict Long Haoxuan.
If they really wanted to do this, they didn't need to tell Lu Yu this, they could just take action directly.
Do they need Lu Yu's consent before they attack Long Haoxuan?
And since they talked to Lu Yu about this matter, it meant that they wanted to use Long Haoxuan's safety as a bargaining chip to talk to Lu Yu.
I'm afraid just now, asking Lu Yu to sign as a witness was just a foreshadowing, or a bait, right?
"That's right! This is the attitude you should have."
When Chen Mingyi heard Lu Yu ask this, he immediately showed a very satisfied smile.
Previously, he had been manipulated and led by Lu Yu, so he naturally felt very unhappy.
Now that Lu Yu was finally pushed back, Chen Mingyi felt very happy.
"Lu Yu, you are a smart man."
"So I won't beat around the bush with you."
"You and Long Haoxuan can only... protect one."
Chen Mingyi slowly leaned forward, made eye contact with Lu Yu, and finally stated his purpose.
"What's the meaning?"
Lu Yu frowned and asked after hearing this.
"It means that only one of you or Long Haoxuan can be acquitted."
"Just now I asked you to be a tainted witness to prove Long Haoxuan's crime, but you were unwilling."
"Then now, you can only choose to bear everything by yourself and let Long Haoxuan be safe and sound."
When Chen Mingyi said this, a cruel sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He knew clearly that Lu Yu valued love and righteousness, but he just wanted Lu Yu to make a choice in front of himself and his brothers.
"What a good idea!"
Lu Yu looked at Chen Mingyi, his heart filled with coldness.
"Lu Yu, don't think that I'm joking with you."
"The facts are here. I don't need to say much. I just let you make your own choice."
"Either you go out, or Long Haoxuan goes out."
"The decision is in your hands."
With a sneer on his face, Chen Mingyi gave Lu Yu such a choice very directly.
Lu Yu was really thinking at this time.
Of course he wanted Long Haoxuan to walk out of the East Prison District unharmed.
But his own safety is equally important.
It is true that he values love and justice, but if he is a person who doesn't even care about his own life, how can he care about other people?
Furthermore, Lu Yu is burdened with too much now. There are seniors and juniors above him, and it is impossible for him to put himself in a situation that is beyond redemption.
And once he resists all the blame for Long Haoxuan, what awaits him will be Shen Yonghua's more violent attack.
Therefore, Lu Yu fell into hesitation at this time.
"They say that you, Lu Yuyi and Bo Yuntian, are the ones who hurt your brothers."
"Why, do you still need to hesitate about this kind of thing?"
Seeing Lu Yu's silence, Chen Mingyi couldn't help but sneer.
Lu Yu just glanced at him and said nothing.
The relationship between him, Long Haoxuan and others does not need the evaluation of others.
Whether it is good or bad, it is enough for them to understand in their own hearts.
However, no matter how good you are, you don’t do things regardless of everything, or even your life.
"Snapped!"
Chen Mingyi took out a document again.
"Sign the confession."
"I can let Long Haoxuan go back."
Chen Mingyi stretched out his hand and pointed at the files on the desktop.
Lu Yu's eyes stayed on the document for less than ten seconds before he slowly shook his head.
It is impossible for him to sign this document.
Once the confession is signed, it means that Lu Yu admits all his guilt.
At that time, no matter who comes forward, Lu Yu will never be able to be saved.
Even he himself confessed, so what would happen even if the person above came forward?
Therefore, this word cannot be signed.
If you sign it, you will die.
"You won't sign?"
"Okay, Long Haoxuan's matter has been delayed for several days."
"This afternoon, I will unite with various yamen related to this matter and submit relevant documents to the capital justice."
"Tomorrow, there will be a court hearing on Long Haoxuan's matter."
