Chapter 387 - Take Over the Project (2/2)

A month had passed and Li Mu Chen was brought to court. She faced a few charges and she had immediately pleaded guilty to all charges. Li Mu Chen was fined a big sum of money and sentenced to ten years in prison.

Li Qin Yao read the news about the court case on the internet and frowned. Knowing Li Mu Chen for years, Li Qin Yao was fully aware that her cousin was not someone who would admit her wrongdoing like this. Li Qin Yao could only guess that the lawyer had advised her to plead guilty to get her sentences to reduce for a few years.

At the same time, the news was reporting that QL Group too were facing lawsuits due to the incident. Although the trial had not reached the end, Li Qin Yao knew that there was no way that they could escape the lawsuit easily.

Li Mu Bai and Li Ming Han will have to work hard to restore the company's reputation.

As for her, Li Qin Yao had been staying home. Since she no longer needed to return to the company, Li Qin Yao would spend most of her time with her daughter. When she was too bored, Li Qin Yao would take the little princess to the hotel to look for her husband.

When the staff saw their young madame with the little princess at the hotel, they could not stop talking about the adorable girl.

Once they arrived at the hotel, Li Qin Yao had a brief chat with Secretary Tian before she knocked on the door and peeked into her husband's office. Seeing that Zhang Yu Han was on the phone, Li Qin Yao waved her hand and walked in quietly as she pushed the baby stroller in.

Zhang Yu Han's gaze softened upon seeing his two favorite girls. He ended the call quickly and walked over to his wife.

”Mrs. Zhang, are you here to invite me to lunch?” Zhang Yu Han asked before he leaned in to give his wife a peck on her lips.

”Hmm… Are you busy?” She smiled. ”You don't have to end your call quickly just because we showed up.”

”It wasn't an important matter.” He pushed a few strands of hair behind her ears and took his chance to ċȧrėss her cheek.

”Really?” Li Qin Yao tilted her head sideways and raised a brow. She seemed to overhear that Zhang Yu Han had told the person on the other line to do matters discreetly.

”Of course,” Zhang Yu Han smiled and bent to kiss her lips again. ”What can be more important than you?”

At this time, Zhang Li Xue made a sound and continued to chatter. It was as if she was dissatisfied that her parents seemed to forget her existence.

Seeing the way that the little princess was complaining, Zhang Yu Han lifted her from the stroller and kissed her on both cheeks.

Zhang Li Xue shrunk her neck, feeling a bit ticklish at her father's kisses. Then, she retaliated by gnawing at her father's shoulder as he hugged her.

Zhang Yu Han ignored his daughter and turned to his wife again. ”Have you looked at the news?”

”Hmm...” Li Qin Yao nodded.

Looking at her face, Zhang Yu Han knew that his wife was in low spirits after reading the news about her cousin. ”Are you pitying her?”

Li Qin Yao shook her head. ”Of course not. Mu Chen is my cousin. But if I continue to be soft-hearted towards her, I am afraid that someday, she would do something that would harm Li Xue. I cannot let that happen.”

Hearing his wife's answer, Zhang Yu Han heaved a sigh in relief. He pulled her into his embrace and frowned as he thought of what he planned to do to Li Mu Chen.
