Ling Yiran was tired of watching Hua Lifang put on a show. What she said was enough to let her know that Guo Xinli had been set up by her cousin.
However... Why was her cousin setting Guo Xinli up like this? They had nothing in common!
Just then, one of the policemen said to Ling Yiran, "You must be the lawyer representing Guo Xinli. You can go in and talk to Guo Xinli now, but only for half an hour."
"Okay," Ling Yiran answered quickly, but as she was about to walk forward, a hand suddenly grasped her wrist from behind her. "You're Guo Xinli's lawyer?"
Ling Yiran immediately turned her head and saw Gu Lichen's face. Surprise flashed across her face. She did not expect Gu Lichen... to have left the hospital and come to the police station.
"Why did you leave the hospital? Did the doctor allow you to come here?" she asked. The gauze had been removed from his head and body yesterday, but he was supposed to stay in the hospital for at least a few more days.
"Are you going to represent Guo Xinli?" he asked instead of replying to her question.
"He's my friend, and I believe he's innocent," said Ling Yiran.
Hua Lifang, who was nearby, interrupted immediately, "Do you think I've wronged Guo Xinli? He's an animal! If the passerby had come a little later, he would’ve gotten away with it! Yiran, even if he's your friend, couldn't he have done such a despicable thing? Why do you trust him so much?"
"Because I know sometimes the evidence doesn't tell the whole truth!" Ling Yiran answered unhesitatingly.
However, her affirmation made Gu Lichen frown. Just then, the police officer urged Ling Yiran. "Hurry up, don't waste our time."
