Zeng Zhili went in, and the charge was extortion. Officer Xiao Zhong, who was responsible for mediating the case last time, told Wen Changling about it.
During a walk, Wen Changling asked about the matter.
"When did he try to extort you?"
Xie Shang said, "During that one hour you were asleep at my place."
As soon as Zeng Zhili saw him, he started demanding money, so Xie Shang baited him a little. Zeng Zhili took the bait readily, and after learning about Xie Shang's relationship with Marlon Group, he indeed increased the amount by a hundredfold.
For Xie Shang, getting a greedy and ignorant layman about the law to spend a few more years behind bars was a piece of cake.
"Did you plan to handle it this way from the start?"
Efficient and doesn't dirty the hands.
Xie Shang, a man who values cleanliness, doesn't like to dirty his hands and nodded, "Mhm, I am a very law-abiding person."
Wen Changling didn't respond.
