Chu Yu asked softly, "My dear daughter, how far has your relationship with Chen Dong progressed?"

Her voice carried a mother's unique tenderness and inquisitiveness.

Upon hearing this, Chu Mengran blushed instantly, the blush spreading from her cheeks to her ears, like a magnificent sunset.

She lowered her head slightly, her toes unconsciously drawing circles on the ground, and said coquettishly, "Mom, why are you asking this? Why are you suddenly concerned about this?"

Her tone carried a hint of girlish shyness and reproach.

Seeing her daughter's shy expression, Chu Yu teased her with a smile, "What, can't Mom ask?"

"Right now, you're my only family member. How could I not care about your marriage?"

"You are the apple of your mother's eye, and your happiness is more important to her than anything else."

As she spoke, Chu Yu gently raised her hand and softly stroked the strands of hair near Chu Mengran's ear.

Chu Mengran felt a warmth in her heart after hearing her mother's words.

She looked up into her mother's eyes and said earnestly, "Mom, don't worry."

“I knew before that you were in a lawsuit with your stepfather because he coveted me and did that kind of thing to you. The lawsuit is now in court.”

"I've always been thinking about you. Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."

When the topic of her stepfather came up, a hint of anger and worry flashed in Chu Mengran's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

Tears welled up in Chu Yu's eyes, swirling around in her eyes.

Her voice trembled with tears as she said with deep emotion, "My daughter, you must keep your eyes open. A woman's life is hard; the worst thing is to meet the wrong person."

"This is the only thing your mother has ever suffered in her life. You must find someone who truly cares for you, cherishes you, loves you, and respects you."

As she spoke, Chu Yu gently grasped Chu Mengran's hand, as if to convey all her worries and expectations to her.

Chu Mengran gripped her mother's hand tightly, nodded vigorously, and her eyes were full of determination.

"Mom, don't worry, Chen Dong isn't that kind of person. He treats me very well."

“He takes good care of me when I am sick, and encourages and helps me when I encounter difficulties.”

“We have spent a lot of wonderful times together, and I believe he is genuinely good to me.”

Speaking of Chen Dong, Chu Mengran's face beamed with a happy smile, and her eyes sparkled.

Seeing her daughter's happy expression, Chu Yu burst into laughter through her tears, and the wrinkles on her face smoothed out.

She gently patted Chu Mengran's head and said, "It's best if he's not that kind of person. As long as you're happy, Mom will be at ease."

"Mom just wants you to live a happy life. If he dares to bully you, you must tell Mom."

"Even if my mother fights with her life, she will not let him go."

"Well, thank you, mom."

Chu Mengran smiled sweetly, her smile as radiant as a spring flower in full bloom, brightening up the otherwise somewhat oppressive jewelry store.

At this moment, Chen Jianguo had already arrived at the landline phone in the jewelry store.

His expression was serious, and his eyes conveyed the authority of a deputy director.

Then, Chen Jianguo picked up the phone and dialed the number of a deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.

"Hello, is this Deputy Director Zhang? This is Chen Jianguo."

Chen Jianguo's voice was steady and powerful.

"It's about Liu Dazhu's case. He's in jail, so you guys need to keep a close eye on him."

"This is a dangerous individual; we mustn't let him cause any trouble in there."

When he said the word "take care of," Chen Jianguo emphasized it, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

A hearty laugh came from the other end of the phone from the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau: "Haha, Director Chen, I will definitely carry out your orders!"

"However, you'll have to treat me to a meal sometime; it's been a long time since we've gotten together."

Chen Jianguo replied without hesitation, "No problem! I'll bring some Moutai, and we'll have a good chat."

After hanging up with the police station, Chen Jianguo paused briefly before quickly dialing the procuratorate.

"Hello, Chief Prosecutor Li, this is Chen Jianguo."

"The nature of Liu Dazhu's case this time is extremely serious."

"I hope your prosecutor's office can prosecute him for the most serious crime possible, preferably attempted murder or something like that."

"He threatened me with a knife, intending to rape me. What's the difference between that and murder? I'm counting on you to take care of this matter."

Chen Jianguo's words were filled with an angry plea.

After a moment's thought, the prosecutor's office readily agreed: "Since Director Chen has spoken, we will definitely handle this matter carefully. Don't worry."

After repeatedly expressing his gratitude, Chen Jianguo immediately called the court.

"Hello, Dean Wang."

"I am Chen Jianguo. I hope that your court will seriously handle this criminal case involving Liu Dazhu."

"Give the victims a fair outcome and give society an explanation."

Chen Jianguo said earnestly.

The court immediately responded, "Director Chen, rest assured, we will conduct a serious trial in accordance with the law to ensure fairness and impartiality."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Guilan's eyes reddened as she looked at Chen Jianguo with deep gratitude.

"Brother, thanks to you, I don't know what I would have done without you. You've taken such good care of my daughter and me all these years."

As she spoke, tears welled up in Chen Guilan's eyes again.

Chen Dong stepped forward, gently patted Chen Guilan's shoulder, and comforted her, "Third Aunt, don't say that. This is what we should do."

"I have already made plans to hire at least three lawyers to file a civil suit attached to the criminal case."

"This time, we not only need to bring Liu Dazhu into criminal custody, but also to resolve the divorce and division of family property in the civil sphere."

"And the custody of Daya and Erya, as well as the corresponding compensation matters."

"We absolutely cannot let him get away with this. We must make him lose everything and leave with nothing!"

Li Huazhen nodded vigorously from the side and agreed, "Yes, that's how it should be done! Scum like Liu Dazhu deserves to suffer."

Chen Jianguo also said firmly, "Dongzi is right. We must not be soft-hearted when dealing with this kind of person."

"Gui Lan, just wait patiently, we will definitely help you handle this matter."

Hearing her relatives' words, Chen Guilan was overwhelmed with emotion. She choked up and said, "Dongzi, sister-in-law, brother, thank you."

"If it weren't for you guys, I really don't know how I would have faced all of this."

"This year, I raised two children on my own. It was tough, but I persevered."

"I didn't expect that bastard Liu Dazhu wouldn't let us go. Luckily, I have you guys, which gives me confidence."

Chen Dong looked at Chen Guilan with a firm gaze: "Third Aunt, please don't worry."

I will contact the lawyer as soon as possible.
