"Forced obscenity." Li Zhenhua said slowly,

"Due to the special circumstances, this crime carries the maximum punishment and is very serious. But it is still lighter in nature than the crime..."

Sure enough.

Same as Previous Life.

Zhao Chen's fingers gently touched the teacup.

Previous Life, Zhao Jianguo were sentenced to eight years for "forced indecency".

Then he "behaved well" in prison and was released on medical parole five years later.

"Principal Li," Zhao Chen asked softly, "Can I get a suspended sentence for this kind of crime?"

"It's basically impossible." Li Zhenhua shook his head,

"He is a public figure and has great influence on society. Court will definitely be sentenced to a real sentence to serve as a warning to others."

He looked at Zhao Chen with complicated eyes:

"Zhao Chen, I know that your father-son relationship... is rather complicated.

But from a legal perspective, I still recommend that you be prepared - your father will most likely have to stay there for a few years."

"I understand."

Zhao Chen nodded, his face showing just the right amount of heaviness, "Thank you Principal Li for telling me this."

Zhao Chen was very satisfied with the result of the conversation.

Although like Previous Life, Zhao Jianguo may still be sentenced to eight years and then released on medical parole.

But at least, Li Zhenhua confirmed that Zhao Jianguo is unlikely to return in a short time.

That's enough.

As long as Zhao Jianguo enters, even if it is just a few months, it will be enough for him to complete the next layout.

When we came out of Zhengfa University Administration Building, the setting sun had already dyed the entire campus into a warm golden color.

Zhao Chen As soon as he walked down the steps, he saw the figure waiting under the Wutong tree.

Shen Zhiyi is wearing a light blue dress, with long hair shawl, and is talking to Zhou Xiaowen next to her.

Chen Shuhua looked down at his phone, while Li Jing stood quietly aside, holding the milk tea he just bought.

"Chairman Zhao!" Zhou Xiaowen had sharp eyes and was the first to wave hello.

Zhao Chen walked over and his eyes fell on Shen Zhiyi first. "Are you anxious?"

"We have just arrived." Shen Zhiyi smiled, his eyes curved into a nice arc.

"We've been here a long time ago," Zhou Xiaowen said, "Zhiyi can't wait to see you as soon as we arrive."

Chen Shuhua raised his head and pushed up his glasses. "Someone is more anxious than Zhiyi."

She glanced at Zhou Xiaowen with meaning.

"Hey hey hey, Chen Shuhua, what do you mean!" Zhou Xiaowen jumped, "You don't want to see our handsome Chairman Zhao earlier!"

Zhao Chen watched them bickering with a faint smile on their faces.

This pure friendship from his student days was something he had rarely had the opportunity to experience since his rebirth.

"Let's go have a meal." He said, "I'll treat you to private dishes."

"Yeah! Long live Chairman Zhao!" Zhou Xiaowen cheered.

Private Kitchen Restaurant is hidden in an alley in the old city. It has a small facade but elegant decoration.

Private Room is not big, with a round table, a few chairs, and ink paintings hanging on the wall.

You can see the tiled roofs of the old city outside the window, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on them, giving you a sense of tranquility that lasts for a long time.

"I come to this shop often." Zhao Chen said while pouring tea for everyone.

"The boss used to be a chef in a state-owned hotel, and he opened this restaurant after his retirement. The craftsmanship is very good, but the location is a bit off."

"Xiangxiang is not afraid of the deep alley." Zhou Xiaowen had already picked up the menu.

"I want Twice-Cooked Pork! Boiled Fish! Mao Xue Wang!"

Chen Shuhua was helpless. "Xiaowen, for the five of us, it's enough to order three large meat dishes."

"Not enough!" Zhou Xiaowen felt confident,

"Chairman Zhao is treating me, of course I have to eat more! And my recent review has consumed a lot of brain cells, so I need to replenish them!"

Zhao Chen smiled, "Just be casual, that's enough."

Finally, we ordered six dishes and one soup:

Twice-Cooked Pork, Boiled Fish, Mapo Tofu, Pork with Garlic Sauce, Dry-Fried Green Beans, and a pot of Tomato Beef Brisket Soup.

They are all authentic Shan City home cooking.

The food came quickly.

The steaming dishes soon filled Private Room with aroma.

Zhou Xiaowen couldn't wait to pick up a piece of Twice-Cooked Pork and put it into his mouth, narrowing his eyes with satisfaction.

"Hmm... that's the taste! Fat but not greasy, spicy and delicious!"

Chen Shuhua eats gracefully, but not slowly.

Li Jing tasted Mapo Tofu in small sips. He was so spicy that he inhaled, but he couldn't help but take another bite.

Shen Zhiyi took a piece of fish meat to Zhao Chen and asked softly, "I went to see Principal Li this afternoon. Did it go well?"

"Smooth." Zhao Chen nodded,

"I donated money to set up a scholarship, and we had a chat by the way."

He did not go into details about the Zhao Jianguo case.

This kind of topic is not suitable to be brought up in a casual dinner party.

"Chairman Zhao," Zhou Xiaowen asked vaguely with his mouth bulging.

"I heard that you are going to meet your mother-in-law this weekend?"

Chen Shuhua also stared at Zhao Chen curiously. "You are preparing to meet your parents, and then..."

Shen Zhiyi blushed and lowered his head.

"So it seems," Zhou Xiaowen said intriguingly,

"Zhiyi's position as the main wife is stable. When will Chairman Zhao take pity on us side wives?"

Shen Zhiyi's face turned even redder. "What are you talking about!"

"You're the only one who hasn't been able to show off for a day," Li Jing whispered, "I still want to get married..."

"Jingjing Don't worry!" Zhou Xiaowen took Li Jing's hand slightly exaggeratedly.

"Follow Chairman Zhao and eat ten meals a day! What more do you want from a husband!

Chairman Zhao won't treat you badly, just be your bed-warming maid. Don't think about what you have or don't have for a day."

"Sometimes I really want to dig your head open," Li Jing said, slightly helpless, "To see what you are thinking about all day long."

Everyone laughed.
