He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.
Chapter 55 Your Little Darling is Going to Court
This man is really...
What is he doing here?
Siyi's expression changed.
Before she could even speak, Zheng Muyan was already a step ahead of her, blocking her way and coldly questioning, "Jiang Yanhui, what are you doing here?"
Jiang Yan didn't even bother to lift her eyes.
Touching the ring on his little finger, his narrow phoenix eyes curved slightly, and his lazy voice carried a hint of his unique wickedness, "Can't I come? Or do I need to report to you where I'm going?"
Zheng Muyan was taken aback by his words and was naturally somewhat unhappy.
These two had met and fought several times, harboring both old and new grudges; anyone who saw the other would feel jealous.
"Senior brother, my court hearing is about to start, I'll go in first."
Siyi felt a headache coming on at the thought that the two of them might start arguing again.
She didn't want to cause trouble for her senior brother in such a sacred place, thinking that if she went in first, Zheng Muyan certainly wouldn't follow.
Zheng Muyan is not a person without any sense of propriety.
He knew where he was and didn't intend to say much more to Jiang Yan.
He nodded and followed Siyi into the courtroom.
"You're really looking for trouble. Aren't you busy with work at the company? You dragged me here first thing in the morning."
Leng Xiyu stood beside Jiang Yanhui, watching the man and woman walk into the courtroom. He complained with dissatisfaction, "You don't actually have any feelings for this lawyer, do you?"
Jiang Yan glanced at him sideways. "Are you very busy?"
"Nonsense, I also had a dinner appointment with a young model this afternoon."
"Young models?"
Jiang Yan touched her chin with interest, smiled, and said casually, "Your taste is getting more and more sophisticated. I just got a call from America yesterday; your little devil was asking me about you..."
"Okay! Okay, okay, okay!"
Before Jiang Yan could finish speaking, Leng Xiyu hurriedly raised the white flag in surrender, "I was wrong. What could be more important than my brother picking up girls? It's just a hearing, right? I'll go in with you. Come on, come on, didn't you hear your little darling saying the trial is about to start? Let's hurry up."
Leng Xiyu dragged Jiang Yan back inside, steeling himself to do so.
Upon entering the courtroom, I found that quite a few people were already seated, all there to listen to the trial.
From afar, I could see Zheng Muyan sitting in the far left seat of the first row.
The right side, however, remains empty.
He glanced at Jiang Yan Hui, who then walked towards that spot.
He brazenly sat down in the first row.
Not far away, Siyi was looking down as she organized some documents.
She was now wearing the black robe that court lawyers wear, and a white wig on her head.
The soft light shone on her, but the lines of her profile were exceptionally sharp.
Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow, staring intently at her profile. His mind was filled with thoughts of the small woman not far away, the way she writhe and submit to him on the bed.
Suddenly I felt a surge of interest.
Siyi, sitting in the front, could feel a burning gaze from her right.
She felt like she had a thorn in her side.
Even so, there was nothing she could do; she guessed he was just there to see her make a fool of herself.
Thinking about it this way, Siyi became even more indignant. He wanted to see her make a fool of herself, so she was going to show him her strong side!
She reached for the water glass beside her and took a sip to calm herself down.
Actually, she had been preparing for this lawsuit for quite some time.
Her client is a white-collar worker at a listed company. She reported the crime because she was raped by the defendant.
However, the defendant claimed that the woman had seduced him.
Their relationship was consensual.
Such an explanation is not particularly surprising.
Siyi didn't think the lawsuit would be particularly difficult.
After all, the plaintiff had multiple injuries on his body when he went to report the crime.
And it also looks like he's been forced into abuse.
She is 99% confident that she can win the case.
As soon as the court session began, after Siyi, the plaintiff's lawyer, presented the evidence and charges, the defendant's lawyer immediately objected to her accusations.
And just as the defendant said before, he did not plead guilty, but instead wanted to sue the plaintiff for framing him.
The lawsuit quickly turned into a protracted battle.
Although Siyi already had some evidence, she never expected that the defendant would also have new evidence.
It turns out that the defendant specifically hired a private investigator to follow the plaintiff.
They eventually discovered that the plaintiff had engaged in "special services" not long ago.
Such evidence is a serious blow to the plaintiff's image.
The judge and jury will naturally start by assessing her character to determine who is lying and who is truly innocent in this case.
In the end, both sides maintained their original stance, and after hearing one argument, the judge announced that the trial would continue next Wednesday.
After leaving the courtroom, Siyi organized the documents she had and handed them over to her assistant.
Then she was told to take her back to the office first, but she herself didn't look too good.
Actually, she felt something was wrong when the court session started; at first, she felt dizzy and lightheaded.
Later on, I felt like I couldn't keep up with the train of thought.
As a result, today's lawsuit was full of loopholes, and if it weren't for the evidence she still had, she might have lost.
She thought it might be because she was too tired and hadn't rested well last night.
But my lower abdomen always feels bloated, and several times when I stand up, I feel like I'm about to collapse.
"Siyi, are you alright?"
Zheng Muyan rushed over and saw that her face was extremely pale and her brows were full of pain. He couldn't help but worry, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Siyi was genuinely feeling unwell; her palms were sweating profusely, and she couldn't even speak as fluently as usual. "...It's nothing, just my stomach is a little upset..."
"abdomen?"
Zheng Muyan, being a man, assumed she had eaten something bad because of her stomach upset, and quickly said, "Did you eat something bad this morning? Is your stomach upset? Wait here, I'll go buy you some medicine."
"Oh, senior brother, no need..."
Actually, Siyi had a feeling that these signs made her think that her period was about to start.
She's been taking a lot of birth control pills lately, and she knows her periods are a bit irregular.
But Zheng Muyan didn't care about anything else. He comforted her and sat her down in the distance, while he quickly ran out to find a pharmacy.
Siyi didn't have time to say anything.
However, he had little strength.
He casually removed the wig from his head and held it in his palm, then simply sat down and waited for Zheng Muyan to return.
"Sisi's performance today was below par. Is it because I'm putting a lot of pressure on you?"
She was sitting in an aisle, which was unusually quiet at that moment.
She was resting with her eyes closed, leaning back in her seat, when a deep voice suddenly rang in her ears, startling her.
I opened my eyes abruptly and saw the tall figure beside me.
Jiang Yanhui's narrow, slightly upturned phoenix eyes seemed to hold a pool of autumn water that never disperses.
Jiang Yan glanced indifferently at Si Yi, who couldn't stand up, and slightly raised the corners of her beautifully shaped lips. Her voice was unhurried: "Being a lawyer means taking money from your clients and then risking your life to get them acquitted, regardless of right or wrong, huh?"
Siyi's delicate eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.
She thought that her stomach was probably too uncomfortable, so she was having some auditory hallucinations.
What is Jiang Yan saying?
His current stance suggests he's questioning himself about not distinguishing right from wrong in the lawsuit.
She bit her lip and sneered, "Jiang Yan Hui, a scoundrel like you has the nerve to question me about not being able to distinguish right from wrong? Please stay away from me! I don't want to see you!"
She wasn't in the mood to argue with him; she wasn't feeling well.
When did Jiang Yanhui become someone's servant, ordered around like this by a woman?
He was used to being high and mighty, and every time he ran into a wall with Siyi, he felt a little uncomfortable.
However, it was clear at this point that her expression was not normal, so I decided to give in to her.
He bent down and, without saying a word, lifted her up from the stool.
"Ah! What are you doing?"
Siyi instinctively struggled for a moment, but he easily held her firmly in his arms with a princess carry.
She couldn't break free, and in desperation, she could only desperately punch him in the chest, yelling, "Put me down! Jiang Yanhui, what are you doing? Put me down! Put me down!"
"do not move."
Jiang Yan then gave her buttocks a hard pinch.
Siyi shuddered, her face turning completely red.
Before she could even react, she saw his handsome face close to hers, his hot breath making her feel almost intoxicated. "If you're not feeling well, don't push yourself. Even if you want to win the lawsuit, you can't joke around with your health."
He had never spoken to himself in such a tone before.
Siyi was somewhat stunned.
Jiang Yanhui before them was still the same handsome man who was so striking that one dared not look directly at him, and the expression in his eyes and brows was still that of a lazy and unrestrained man.
But why does his tone and manner of speaking seem to have changed?
"I don't need your help, just put me down."
The daze lasted only a moment. Jiang Yanhui carried her into the elevator. Siyi then came to her senses and pushed against his chest, "Jiang Yanhui, did you hear me? Put me down!"
"If you don't want me to take care of it, who will?"
Jiang Yan snorted, "You still need that useless lawyer to control you? Didn't I just tell you yesterday that you're not allowed to see him again? Did you ignore what I said?"
