Defendant: "The seller is no longer in business. Last time we did a deal, we couldn't agree on the goods, so I killed him."

The courtroom was silent for a full minute, with only the sound of the clerk typing frantically on the keyboard.

After explaining everything, the defendant looked at his lawyer and said, "Didn't I say I'll tell you the truth and leave the rest to you? Why aren't you saying anything?"

Lawyer Li Xi's face turned pale. "You've already said it all. What can I say?"

Defendant: "That's not what you said. Just tell me when you ask."

Lawyer Li Xi: “…”

His face turned pale, didn’t you see?

The court was adjourned on the spot and the verdict will be postponed to another day.

Chi Dao never thought that a random case of stealing electric bikes would easily make the headlines in the city.

This guy tortured himself to death, and now he looks terrible.

death penalty.

Defense lawyer Li Xi was also sentenced for gambling and prostitution.

At this point, Chi Dao became famous in one battle and became a hot topic of conversation after dinner.

This is the sensational case of "death sentence for stealing batteries" in Jianghu City.

Colleagues at Chang Heng Law Firm all praised Chi Dao:

"You are truly an elite lawyer. I won you a death penalty in just fifteen days."

"You won't send me in if I talk to you."

"If I meet you in court, my career will be over."

"Lawyer Chi is really comprehensive."

However, this is not the only famous case.

The second case that Chi Dao took on went quite smoothly. However, after the court session, he was attacked by magic and greeted by the defendant's family.

Verbal abuse, pushing, spitting and attacks on the whole family.

Can he bear this?

I can't stand it any longer.

The guy nodded politely, and when the other party came over with a ferocious face and a mouth of yellow teeth, he punched him, making his mouth crooked and his eyes slanted.

Before leaving the court, he went back in for mediation.

Under Chi Dao's strong argument, it was self-defense.

There was no need for a court hearing, the mediation was successful, and the other party was ordered to pay 2,000 yuan in compensation for mental damages.

In addition, he also took on cases in the entertainment industry and divorce cases of wealthy people. Without exception, he won all of them and made a lot of money.

Chi Dao took out a card from his arms and stroked the numbers on it with his slender fingers.

"Three thousand is still too little, why not be a little bolder?"

The card was black, with sexy curves. Chi Xiao knew at a glance that it was her long-lost black card.

"Welcome Second Young Master Chi to my humble abode!!"

When I went upstairs, I passed by the fourth floor and was greeted again.

"Fuck me..."

As soon as the two words "national quintessence" came out, the voice stopped abruptly.

The female tenant's eyes sparkled pink as she leaned against the door railing in her sexy pajamas. "Handsome guy, which floor do you live on?"

Chi Dao looked straight ahead and asked Chi Xiao, "Do you know him?"

"do not know."

"Let's go."

"Oh."

As he said that, he put his arm around Chi Xiao's waist and went upstairs slowly.

When turning the corner, Chi Dao glanced at the female tenant with a cold look in his eyes.

The female tenant shuddered and cursed, "What the hell is wrong? My boyfriend is so rich, yet he lives in this old, shabby place! Even the romantic idol dramas back then didn't play it like this, damn girl!"

He has a gentle appearance and a cool temperament. He is about 1.8 meters tall and exudes the aura of a mature man, but his eyes are surprisingly cold and arrogant.

The female tenant became angrier and angrier as she thought about it. "Jimei, please act in two episodes for me. I really want to talk about this!!"

Standing at the door of the seventh floor, Chi Xiao fell silent.

"what happened?"

"I didn't take the key."

Chi Dao looked at the door lock and suggested, "Just push the door open and go in?"

Using brute force, there is no problem getting through the door.

"No, this lock is expensive. I'd be really sad if it broke." She thought for a moment, "Give me the card."

Chi Dao gave her the card.

He swiped the brush against the crack of the door, twisted the handle with his hand, and with a "click", the door opened.

Chi Dao: "Fortunately, you have been tamed by your parents since you were young, otherwise you would easily go astray when you grow up."

Did she not want to?

No.

I don't dare.

The two old men had been nagging her every day since she was a child, saying that if she committed a crime, she would be sent to jail and eat stewed potatoes and cabbage every day, without pork knuckles, cola chicken wings, or happy water.

That's worse than death.

From then on, I established the idea of being honest and not breaking the law.

When I entered the house, there was no second pair of slippers in the shoe cabinet next to the door.

"No one's coming here, so I don't have any extra slippers. Just come in."

Chi Dao nodded, his attention drawn to the photo frame on the shoe cabinet.

The person in the photo is smiling brightly, showing his neat teeth.

Very dignified.

“Why put a black and white photo of yourself on the shoe cabinet?”

"It's to protect against thieves." Chi Xiao laughed twice. "If a thief comes in and sees my portrait first, and then sees me lying on the bed, he will be scared out of his wits."

It’s interesting to think about it.

Chi Dao glanced at the room and it was indeed very small.

A bed, a small wardrobe, a dressing table and an armchair, as well as some stuffed animals.

There aren't many things, but the decoration is very warm.

Chi Xiao, who was pouring water, pushed the chair over and said, "Sit down."

Chi Dao put his suit on the back of the chair, but didn't sit down. He watched her pour water.

The moment the disposable water cup was handed to me, I felt inexplicably distressed.

"I own two villas, but no one lives in them. You..."

"I don't need it now." Chi Xiao smiled heartlessly, "I'll ask you when I need you someday."

Chi Dao took the disposable water cup and took a sip. "Why don't you find a proper job? With your ability and education, you should have many options."

But she is mentally ill. She becomes anxious when she sees that her boss is so rich.

She thinks that the money in other people's pockets should belong to her, and when she sees good things, she can't help but want to take them for herself.

Why should I work so hard like a horse and go to work on time?

Relying on your own strength and using some tricks, it is easy to get the money.

This also means that the risk of going to jail is greater.

Living in the vegetable market was a last resort. She couldn't have too much money in the card under her name so that she could take on the tasks assigned by her superiors and play all kinds of strange roles.

Of course, it is also because there are few cameras nearby, making it convenient to sneak around.

"I want to live off my parents." She paused. "We're in the same household registration. The two elders have so much assets. I think I can fight for it."

"I was almost completely defeated by Chi Xu."

"...Damn it! He actually got hold of the old two's assets in advance." Chi Xiao approached, revealing a determined look, "Why don't we join forces and swindle all of the Chi family's assets and split it fifty-fifty."

Chi Dao expressed regret, "The board of directors is full of his people, so it will probably be difficult."

In the economically developed Jianghu City, the Chi family was not considered a scholarly or prominent family, but they simply stood at the forefront of the times and seized opportunities to make a fortune.

In short, a nouveau riche.

Although it is not as good as the famous families of Li, Wang and Xia, its assets are still considerable and can barely make it into the top four families.

In recent years, it has been "developed and promoted" by Chi Xu, but has always been hovering around fourth or fifth place.

Occasionally, I also act like the sixth one.

There is another fundamental reason why Chi Xiao doesn't want to go back.

It's a marriage.

The marriage was arranged when she was a child. The fortune teller said she had a good fate and would bring prosperity to her husband, and marrying her would bring prosperity to four generations.

To continue to prosper for four generations, how tempting it is for businessmen who pay attention to feng shui.

Therefore, before the news was leaked out, Mr. Li relied on his decades-long relationship with the old Taoist priest to easily obtain the information and privately seek marriage.

The Chi family did not agree at the time, and soon after, the capital chain broke, the new project investment failed, and the expected returns did not meet expectations. In addition, external financing was difficult and channels were limited.

For the sake of family interests, the newly established Chi family had no choice but to agree to the marriage. After obtaining the funds, they sought new cooperation to turn the tide.

But they also managed to gain one thing: before the marriage, no one from the Li family was allowed to meet Chi Xiao secretly, nor were they allowed to harass her, so that she could live a normal life.

The Li family has some conscience in this matter, but not much.

Now, there is still more than a year before the wedding.

"It's getting late. Go home early. You have to go to work tomorrow."

Chi Dao nodded, "Well, you should rest early."

Before leaving, she almost forgot to ask, "What's the password?"

"Your birthday."

"……what?"
