Chapter 625: Go Big or Go Home

Madam President lowered her head in shame. The Shen family was used to shielding their own shortcomings. Her father was the worst for this, he would go to unreasonable lengths to protect his own. Tong Yan was his only granddaughter, he would sacrifice his life to cover up for her.

This was why Tong Yan could commit such an atrocious crime fearlessly.

Madam President worried that the Shen family and Tong family would quarrel with the Xi family over Tong Yan's crime and this would blow up to a ridiculous proportion. Her husband would be stuck between a rock and a hard place.

He might be the president, but he was also the arbitrator of many forces or else the country would be in complete chaos. However, he was still fighting his illness; she didn't want this to ruin his health.

The president understood her worry. He consoled her, ”Don't worry, this will be settled quietly, and even it doesn't, it still won't kill me.”

”Don't say things like that,” Madam President berated him with a frown. ”You will be fine. After Lu Qi finishes the mechanical heart, your illness will be healed.”

The president laughed. ”I will wait for that day to come. I believe I'll be fine, so you shouldn't worry so much. I'm still around, they won't dare to do anything.”

”What if the Xi family refuses to back down?”

”Xi Mubai's criminal proof is still with us, so we'll just let them figure this out on their own for now. We'll intervene if necessary. In actuality, all of them are at fault, but the hegemony of power is now at a sensitive balance, the moment the scale tips, unimaginable tragedy might happen. Hopefully, they can settle this among themselves or else we'll just wrangle all of them into jail,” the president said with a cold huff.

Madam President felt better after hearing her husband say that; she knew her husband would handle this well. For the sake of the country, he had suffered through and sacrificed a lot.

Sometimes, bending the law was necessary for the overall profit of the country and its people.
