He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.

She took two deep breaths, trying to clear her mind of all those images.

She then spoke, her voice still slightly unsteady, "Mr. Jiang Yan, do you know the defendant, Mr. Yu Chengfeng?"

Jiang Yanhui slowly stroked her strong chin with her slender fingers.

Sitting languidly in the witness stand, upon hearing Siyi's question, his handsome eyebrows twitched slightly. "I know him."

"What is your relationship?"

"good friend."

"How good is it?"

Jiang Yan glanced lazily at Si Yi, a smile playing on her lips. "What level? I think the question Attorney Ye asked is... a bit profound."

Siyi's eyes darkened, and she said in a firm voice, "Mr. Jiang Yan, all I want now is for you to answer my question!"

"Okay! Chengfeng and I are just good brothers."

He slightly raised his captivating eyes and looked at Siyi meaningfully, saying, "He's a man. I won't get so close to him that we'd sleep together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

The audience members were whispering among themselves, some even giggling. It was clear to everyone that Jiang Yan was playing games with Si Yi, while also trying to gain the upper hand verbally.

Siyi's heart tightened, and her hands involuntarily clenched into fists—

That damned Jiang Yanhui!

He did it on purpose, he must have done it on purpose!

She bit her lip tightly to avoid embarrassing herself at such a crucial moment, and had to suppress her anger.

She is a professional lawyer with professional ethics, and she would never involve her personal affairs!

The judge picked up his gavel and banged it on the table. "Silence."

He reached up and adjusted his reading glasses, looking at Jiang Yanhui in the witness stand, and warned him somewhat seriously, "Witness, this is a courtroom, watch your answers."

Jiang Yanhui still had a lazy expression, with a sexy smile always hanging on the corner of her mouth, but it didn't reach her eyes.

His arrogant personality meant he merely nodded in agreement with the judge's statement.

Siyi calmed herself down and asked, "Mr. Jiang Yan, do you admit that you are the mastermind behind the Golden Throat Entertainment City?"

“I have never denied it.”

Siyi was taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing deep in her eyes.

He... didn't even refute it? He just admitted it so openly?

All the evidence now points to the female victim dying from a drug overdose. As the biggest boss of the entertainment center, he must be held responsible for this. If it were only Yu Chengfeng, even if he were convicted, the crime he would be sentenced to might not be too serious.

But the Jiang family is different. Jiang Yan's status and position are so sensitive, yet he still dares to stand in the eye of the storm.

Siyi hesitated for only three seconds before immediately asking, "So, do you know that on April 10, 2013, at 5:40 PM, a nineteen-year-old girl named Li Minmin died from a drug overdose at the Golden Throat Entertainment City?"

"I'm sorry, Attorney Ye, I only found out about this later."

"Is it?"

Siyi smiled faintly, her eyes gleaming. "The police have found enough evidence to prove that the entertainment center had been dealing in soft drugs for the past month. As the big boss of Jinzuo Entertainment Center, how could you be completely unaware of this? Furthermore, this evidence proves that all the entertainment center's revenue ultimately went into your account. So, Mr. Jiang Yanhui, if you were truly upright and honest, and all your earnings were aboveboard, why would you need to have them laundered through other companies before reaching your account?"

"Everything proves that you are lying!"

Siyi's expression suddenly hardened, and her slender finger abruptly pointed at Jiang Yanhui in the defendant's seat—

At this moment, the aura of a lawyer returned to her.

She spoke again, her words ringing with conviction, "You knew perfectly well what was going on. You knew your entertainment center was involved in drug trafficking, and now an innocent female college student has died. Not only have you shown no remorse, but you're also planning to find a scapegoat to take the blame for you—"

"Objection!" The defense attorney suddenly stood up. "I object to the plaintiff's attorney's baseless accusations!"

The judge nodded. "Objection valid. Plaintiff's lawyer, watch your wording."

Siyi pursed her lips, realizing she was getting a little emotional. She slowly regulated her breathing before nodding, "Yes, Your Honor."

She glanced at Jiang Yan Hui, who was still smiling lazily, as if nothing concerned her. That expression seemed to suggest that she had everything under her feet; though her posture was languid, it exuded an overbearing aura.

Siyi didn't know why, but her heart skipped a beat. She felt that his eyes had the ability to easily penetrate people's hearts, especially when he looked at her. The light in his eyes was ambiguous, as if she were naked.

damn it--

She clenched her hands tightly, biting her cherry lips with her teeth, her eyes lowered in a flustered manner. After a long while, she finally steadied her breathing and spoke calmly, "Your Honor, I have no further questions for now."

At this moment, the defense lawyer stood up, glanced at Jiang Yanhui, and asked as usual, "Mr. Jiang Yanhui, what is your relationship with the defendant, Mr. Yu Chengfeng?"

"We are friends."

So what do you think of Mr. Yu Chengfeng as a person?

"As a person?" Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow. "I dare not say anything else, but I know that Chengfeng would never touch drugs."

“那么2013年4月10号下午5点40分，金座娱乐城有女大学生因为嗑药过度而死，你有什么看法？”

Jiang Yan adjusted her posture slightly, spread her hands, and slowly said, "I am a legitimate businesswoman. Even if I am the big boss behind the entertainment city, I earn money honestly. As for drugs, I never touch them. Why people died is something the police should investigate. Of course, I am happy to cooperate with the police investigation. If I haven't done anything wrong, why should I be afraid?"

"So, you were completely unaware of this, right?"

"The law is just. If I didn't do it, it will naturally clear my name."

“Okay, I have no further questions for now, Your Honor.” He turned around, then suddenly added, “However, I have a new witness, and I implore Your Honor to allow him to appear in court.”

Upon hearing this, Siyi was immediately startled and stood up. "Objection! Your Honor, the defense did not declare that any new witnesses would appear in court..."

"However, this witness is crucial to the case. He can prove that this matter is indeed unrelated to Yu Chengfeng, so I implore Your Honor to grant my request."

After a moment's consideration, the judge nodded and said, "Approved."

Siyi's face darkened, and she realized something was wrong if a new witness appeared in court.

It's easy to imagine that this would be entirely detrimental to them!
