I Married a Commander and Became a Galaxy Star

Chapter 85: Chapter 84: I Absolutely Cannot Go to Jail!!

Imperial Hospital, VIP ward.

Lin Zhenxiang was thankful she’d been clever enough to feign fainting back in the classroom. Otherwise, she’d probably be in the interstellar prison by now!

However, her current situation wasn’t much better.

Two Star Warriors were posted outside her ward’s door, guarding her as if she were a criminal.

Lin Zhenxiang’s eyes were filled with malice, her features twisted in a grimace. Overwhelming anger and hatred threatened to consume her, and even clenching her fists couldn’t stop her body from trembling.

Shu Yao!

That garbage woman from the Lower Star District!

Why is that bitch always so lucky?!

BANG!

The door to the ward was practically slammed open.

Lin Yaodong and Zhen Zhen rushed in, their faces etched with urgency.

Lin Zhenxiang quickly composed herself. Tears slid down her pale cheeks, and her aggrieved expression was utterly heart-wrenching.

”Dad, Mom...” Lin Zhenxiang choked out.

”Xiangxiang, how are you?” Zhen Zhen asked with concern, checking the side of Lin Zhenxiang’s neck for the wound.

The wound was no longer visible, but traces of blood remained on the collar around her neck.

”As long as Xiangxiang’s okay!” Lin Yaodong breathed a sigh of relief, seeing his daughter wasn’t seriously hurt.

”This is outrageous!” Zhen Zhen roared, unable to contain herself any longer. ”How could they do this to my daughter!? I’ll sue them!!”

Lin Zhenxiang clutched her mother’s hand, her voice a choked whisper. ”The Commander-in-Chief... he’s investigating personally... Mom... this time... we’re finished! The Star Network must be full of my scandal by now!”

’Once it’s confirmed that the evidence I presented on the livestream was fabricated, and that I’m responsible for a wrongful conviction...’

’My reputation, my career, my life...’

’It’ll all be ruined!’

Lin Zhenxiang swallowed her humiliation. ”Dad, Mom, what do I do? I absolutely cannot go to prison!!!”

Lin Yaodong’s face was grim. ”Xiangxiang, I know you’re grown now. But before you do anything, can’t you discuss it with your mother and me first?”

Zhen Zhen gave him a hard shove, glaring at him as she shrieked hysterically, ”Lin Yaodong, you have the nerve to blame Xiangxiang! This is all the fault of that wretched spawn you had with that Shu woman! Why don’t you go blame them!”

Lin Yaodong looked awkward. He rubbed his nose, annoyed. ”I’ll definitely find a way to send that spawn back to the Lower Star District! But right now, we need to figure out how to clean up Xiangxiang’s mess!”

”’My mess...’” Lin Zhenxiang laughed bitterly, her heart cold and filled with resentment. She looked at Lin Yaodong in disappointment. ”The Lin Family’s restaurant isn’t just mine! So why is it that now that there’s a problem, it’s all my fault? Heh... That’s right, when the Empress issued her ultimatum, I was the one running around, busy with everything. If you’d helped me then, Dad, how could things have turned out this way?”

”I...” Lin Yaodong looked guilt-stricken. He yielded to his tear-streaked daughter. ”Alright, alright, you’re right. It was my fault!”

On the outside, Lin Zhenxiang looked aggrieved, but inwardly, she sneered.

’We rise and fall together. I’m the face of the Lin Family now. If I’m finished, the Lin Family collapses with me.’

’So, even if it wasn’t for my sake, he would definitely help me through this crisis for the sake of the Lin Family.’

Lin Yaodong frowned in thought for a moment. He looked up at his pale, helpless daughter, who was still in tears. Unable to bear it, he offered a few words of comfort before speaking in a gentle voice:

”Xiangxiang, I didn’t mean to blame you; I was just worried. But if you want to save both yourself and the family business, you need to listen to Dad.”

Her teary eyes suddenly lit up. Lin Zhenxiang asked eagerly, ”Dad, you really have a plan?”

Lin Yaodong gave her a reassuring smile.

Zhen Zhen pushed him, urging, ”Hurry up and say it!”
