Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 2140 - 2144: Unexpected

Chapter 2140: Chapter 2144: Unexpected

During the time their son was hiding, they actively communicated with the victim’s family.

They told the victim’s family that the victim ran a red light, which is why their son hit and killed him. If the other party filed a lawsuit, they wouldn’t pay a penny.

On the contrary, they were willing to compensate 1.5 million.

The surveillance footage clearly showed that the victim did run a red light.

The victim’s family was swayed by the 1.5 million, took the money, and did not sue their son.

Along with their covert maneuvers, the matter was quietly suppressed.

However, their son’s superiors found out about him killing someone, and he was removed from his position.

Aside from that, the incident did not result in any other severe consequences.

But now, the matter has been brought up again.

Their son was driving under the influence at the time, which only the couple and Senior Master Lin, Senior Madame Lin knew, not even the second brother and his wife, or the third brother and his wife.

How did Gu Junzhu find out?

Seeing their bewildered looks, Gu Junzhu seemed to know what they were thinking, and took the initiative to clarify: “Are you wondering how I knew about Lin Hongyao’s drunk driving and manslaughter when you kept it so tightly under wraps?”

He smiled slightly: “It’s very simple! On that day, your son drank with a dozen people. I just asked a few of them! … Oh, and by the way, someone recorded a video of your son and his friends drinking and posted it on social media. Although it was later deleted, the original video was still on his friend’s phone. My subordinates got me a copy. Would you like to see it?”

Gu Junzhu took out his phone, played a video, and projected it on the wall.

Soon, the footage of Lin Hongyao clinking glasses with his friends and then downing his drink appeared on the wall.

Gu Junzhu said, “The bottom right corner shows the time the video was taken. Comparing it to when Lin Hongyao hit the person, it’s easy to see that he was driving under the influence!”

Aside from Lin Fan and his family, everyone else in the Lin Family looked as if they had been throttled, their faces growing increasingly pale.

Zhang Hesui was the first to regain her senses.

She suddenly lunged in front of Gu Junzhu, and with a thud, knelt at his feet, tears streaming down her face, “Young Master Gu, I beg you, please spare my son! My son was wrong to drive drunk, but it was because the other person ran a red light that my son hit and killed him. We’ve compensated the victim’s family with a lot of money already. Please, Young Master Gu, don’t pursue this matter any further, my son is still young, he can’t go to jail, I beg you!”

With the rapid spread of information online today, her son’s drunk driving incident, which was suppressed by her husband, would create a massive uproar if it got online.

By that time, not only would her son be finished, but so would her husband’s career!

Lin Fan and Ho Jiayun looked in shock at Zhang Hesui, who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhang Hesui was born into a prestigious family.

Her family may not be as influential as the Lin Family, but they were still noteworthy.

In their impression, Zhang Hesui was always the typical spoiled wealthy lady, capricious and arrogant.

Especially when facing the couple, she was always bossy and full of superiority.
