The call went through to Tang Yumeng's office where she was suffering from a splitting headache.

The situation with Lin Chuan has caused quite a stir! There was even a forceful break-in at the detention room of the police station; I heard he fought with a few policemen who tried to stop him.

This assault on police officers could be treated as either a major or minor issue, but if it goes through legal procedures, he might end up in prison.

Most importantly, there is immense criticism from the police, accusing Lin Chuan of having no respect for the law, leading lawbreakers in blatant disregard of the law enforcement officers' authority. They've all been saying that Lin Chuan must be dealt with severely – the anger is widespread throughout the entire system; everyone is furious.

She felt that hiring a lawyer might not be effective at this time,

and then Tang Yumeng suddenly thought of someone.

She fell silent for a moment, thought for a long time, and finally, she still made the call. Despite being extremely reluctant, despite a million reasons not to be happy about it, for Lin Chuan's sake, she had to ask him for help.

On the other end of the phone, Bai Yifan's voice came with a hint of surprise, "Xiao Yu, is that you?"

"Yifan." Tang Yumeng's voice was low, "There's something I'd like you to help me with."

"Whatever it is, just tell me," Bai Yifan said. "Do we really need to be this formal with each other?"

"I…" Tang Yumeng hesitated for a moment, and after a while, she said, "I have a friend who got into some trouble, and it's quite complicated. I'm not in a good position to intervene, can you help me?"

Bai Yifan laughed, "Sure, tell me about it, and I'll see if I can help."

Tang Yumeng laughed and then roughly explained the whole situation.

After listening, Bai Yifan chuckled and said, "That's all? Easy to handle. Although I'm not in politics, I still have some connections in the provincial capital. I'm on good terms with the princelings there, I'll ask them for a favor. If that doesn't work out, I'll go to my father."

"Great, thank you, Yifan," Tang Yumeng hurriedly expressed her gratitude.

"Don't mention it," Bai Yifan laughed. "Your issue is my issue. Don't make it sound so distant between us. By the way, the New Year is coming up, where do you plan to spend it?"

"I plan to stay in Jiangbei," Tang Yumeng said with a smile.

"On New Year's Eve, there's a major stage play at the provincial capital's opera house. What about…" Bai Yifan said with a smile, "we go watch it together?"

"Let's talk about it after this thing settles down," Tang Yumeng said with a wry smile. "I'm not in the mood right now."

"Alright, leave this matter to me," Bai Yifan immediately decided. "There should be a result in the next couple of days."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Yumeng felt somewhat aggrieved. For Lin Chuan's sake, she was willing to swallow her pride and ask Bai Yifan for help. Bai Yifan had always been persistent with her, but she had no feelings for him, and always treated him just as her best friend. If it weren't for a specific reason, she would have never wanted to ask anything of Bai Yifan. After all, once she asked him for help, there would be many things she couldn't refuse him.

For example, watching the stage play on New Year's Eve.
