There was a hint of pleasure in her tone, which Jiang Yan could easily tell.

Raising her eyebrows casually, she feigned surprise and asked, "Oh? Really? Things have taken an unexpected turn?"

Siyi sneered, not bothering to keep him in suspense, and said directly, "You may not be wrong, and the evidence you had someone give me is correct, but there's more to it than meets the eye. I can tell you clearly that Sun Xiaoman was framed! So I will definitely help her win this case."

Of course, this is on the premise that she can think it through after a night of deep thought; otherwise, there is nothing she can do.

Jiang Yan Hui, however, did not seem to be incredulous at all.

If Siyi could see the man on the other end of the phone still so confident, she thinks she wouldn't be happy either.

"Is it?"

His voice was languid, and when it reached her ears through the airwaves, it seemed to be even more alluring. "If I remember correctly, the court hearing is tomorrow, isn't it? Honey, I'll personally come to cheer you on tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to your performance."

"Jiang Yan Hui, don't pretend to be compassionate with crocodile tears. We don't need this kind of thing between us!"

Siyi snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "I just want you to remember the promise you made to me. If you lose, then disappear far away from me."

"Hehe, we'll talk after you win." He spoke with complete indifference. "Sisi, see you tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Siyi slapped her forehead; she had completely forgotten about her older brother.

However, she knew she wouldn't call back now. Siyi thought about it carefully. She realized she didn't have much time left, and the most important thing right now was to win the case.

As for Sun Xiaoman, she felt she had a 50-60% chance of success. As for her older brother and Jiang Yanhui's matter, she thought that she would definitely meet with Jiang Yanhui after the lawsuit was over.

We'll just have to figure out a way to shut his annoying mouth then!

The following day, in court.

The audience seats were full.

The man on the far right wore a light blue shirt with a thin casual suit jacket over it. His slightly lazy expression carried an air of indifference and aloofness that made him unapproachable.

His thin, sensual lips were slightly pursed; if you looked closely, you could see it.

The corners of his lips were slightly upturned, a curve that conveyed admiration.

His gaze, however, was fixed on the female lawyer in a black robe not far away.

The faint smile in his eyes, which was always hard to tell was genuine, also carried a hint of approval.

He still felt unsatisfied after their heated debate.

His little Sisi can sometimes really surprise people.

Despite her petite stature, she stood in the sacred courtroom and engaged in a fierce verbal battle with the defendant's lawyer, who was a person taller than her.

He rarely saw her so confident; her brows furrowed with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, and every word she spoke was earnest and persuasive.

Her words were interspersed with personal emotions from time to time, a tactic that was clearly the easiest way to get the jury to side with her.

This woman is really...

Jiang Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, and Yu Chengfeng, who was standing next to her, leaned in with a smile and whispered in her ear, "She's really good. This is the second time I've seen her in court. She's much calmer than last time."

I heard a string of words that seemed to agree with me.

But seeing Yu Chengfeng's self-righteous expression, Jiang Yan couldn't help but scoff, "You know about this? When did you start secretly studying law?"

Yu Chengfeng was speechless, unable to resist retorting, "Amending the law is definitely not something I need to do. But I think you really need to get it done, Young Master Yan. Otherwise, this sharp-tongued woman can pull out some criminal law or legal article 100-something at any time. If you try to get close to her in the future, she can probably put you in jail."

"How could that be? I didn't force anyone. Compared to you, Young Master Yu, I'm far inferior. If she knew that you've given Lin Piaoyun to... I would definitely want you to go to jail."

Isn't he just being sarcastic?

He admitted that sometimes he couldn't get the better of Siyi with words, but dealing with the one next to him was more than enough.

The moment Lin Piaoyun was mentioned, the gloating smile that had been playing on Yu Chengfeng's lips, which he had previously thought had hurt Jiang Yanhui, froze on his lips.

Damn!

It's better not to mention it, because mentioning it makes me furious. That woman looks much more delicate than someone like Ye Siyi, but her temper is just infuriating!

It's been so long, and I don't know what triggered her yesterday, but last night she even thought of threatening me with a knife to stop touching her!

Since it's someone Yu Chengfeng has chosen, how can he possibly let go of her?

Besides, letting her go would just give that kid an opportunity to take advantage of her.

All his painstaking efforts would be wasted! Just thinking about what happened last night sent chills down his spine. Those sharp, death-defying eyes left him with a lingering sense of dread.

There was also a knife wound on his wrist that seemed to be throbbing slightly.

Damn it! This is a real headache!

Yu Chengfeng's thoughts were still lingering on the scene of his almost "battle" with Lin Piaoyun last night.

On the other end, Siyi had already engaged in a heated exchange with the defendant's lawyer.

After presenting all the evidence, the judge finally spoke.

"Let's take a 30-minute break first, after which both the defendant's lawyer and the plaintiff's lawyer will give their closing arguments."

After the judge finished speaking, the jury members followed him into the back lounge.

Siyi sat down, and Xiao Zhang handed her a water glass. She took a couple of small sips before getting up.

“Attorney Ye, I think you did a great job today. I think the so-called evidence they presented last time, as well as the ‘escort girl’ issue, have been completely discredited because of Sun Xiaoman’s admission. We are very likely to win.”

Xiao Zhang followed closely behind her, summarizing the conclusions he had drawn from today's lawsuit.

Siyi had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

When I saw Sun Xiaoman outside the courthouse today, I was certain that she had been persuaded by me.

As expected, she agreed with her own statement and cooperated extremely well in court, recounting all the things that happened back then, and of course, she genuinely wanted to change.

In fact, that's all the other party is trying to seize upon. As long as Sun Xiaoman admits it herself, there will be no obstacles.

Of course, what she needs to do next is to deliver this final closing statement well. Moving people with emotion is the best way to win them over. As long as she can persuade the jury members, then there won't be any major problems.

"Xiao Zhang, come with me inside to see Sun Xiaoman. She doesn't seem to be in a good mood today."

During the confrontation just now, the defendant's lawyer asked many very sharp questions. Siyi could tell that Sun Xiaoman's emotions were fluctuating quite a bit, but she managed to control them fairly well.

Just as the two were about to enter the lounge, they were suddenly stopped by a tall figure at the door.

Siyi subconsciously looked up. Jiang Yanhui's tall figure leaned lazily against the door frame. With his handsome features and radiant spirit, he exuded an irresistible roguish charm.

"How will you be here?"

Of course she knew he was here today; in fact, she knew as soon as the court session started. Moreover, she couldn't avoid those two burning gazes, even if she wanted to.

However, even though she knew, she focused all her attention on the case as soon as the court session began, and tried her best to ignore his presence.

Now what is he trying to do by blocking my way? Doesn't he even know where he is? He's so brazen, doesn't he know how to write the word "taboo" at all?

hateful!

"Get out of the way!" she frowned and snapped at him rudely.

Why can't I come here?

Compared to her indifferent attitude, Jiang Yan seemed completely unaffected. He always had a nonchalant smile on his face, and his tone of voice was flippant, which made Siyi very uncomfortable. "Sisi, you did really well today. It seems you are very confident that you can win. But it's okay. I'm always generous. As long as you win, I'll give you a gift later."

Siyi sneered, mocking without any politeness, "I can't accept Young Master Yan's gift. The best gift you can give me is for you to stay away from me. Get out of my way!"

After she finished speaking, she reached out to push her, but Jiang Yan turned her head and grabbed her hand, pulling her into her arms.

The overwhelming masculine scent made Siyi's heart race. She tried to push him away, but the harder she struggled, the more he wouldn't let go.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Zhang was completely dumbfounded.

Of course she knew Jiang Yan, but... but what was the situation now?

How did Attorney Ye end up hugging Jiang Yan?

Fortunately, there was no one else on this path.

Otherwise, what would people in the industry think of Attorney Ye if they saw this?

However, she didn't dare to go up there casually. It seemed that Attorney Ye and Jiang Yan were very familiar with each other. After thinking about it, she decided to hurry up and comfort Sun Xiaoman herself first.

As for this matter, she figured the clever Attorney Ye could definitely handle it himself.

"Really, you don't want a gift?"

Looking at the woman in his arms who seemed to be on fire, his bright black eyes were filled with angry flames, but beneath the anger, there was clearly a hint of shyness.

He was in a great mood, but then pretended to be heartbroken and said, "Don't be so barbaric. I saved your life, so I guess that's repaying evil with kindness, right? Why don't you thank me properly? Now you're treating me like an enemy?"
