During this time.

The Gu family also came to the hospital to visit her.

When Gu Yihuai arrived at the hospital, he had already regained his former radiance.

His burgundy hair has been dyed back to black.

When Lin Qingran saw him, she seemed somewhat dazed.

The Gu Yihuai before me is like a return to the time when they had a very good relationship.

Lin Qingran looked at him and forced a faint smile.

"I never expected you would come to see me."

Gu Yihuai simply smiled faintly and did not speak.

He looked intently at Lin Qingran, the two of them facing each other.

Lin Qingran looked into his dark eyes and saw that he seemed to have a lot to say, yet also seemed unable to say anything. She paused for a moment and then said softly.

"Is your throat still not better?"

Gu Yihuai shook his head, looked at Lin Qingran, took out a pen and a notebook, wrote two lines, and handed them to Lin Qingran.

"There is no cure yet, so it may take some time before my voice is restored."

How have you been lately?

Lin Qingran looked at these questions and said calmly.

"It's ok."

She has calmed down a lot and has been here for half a month now.

In fact, people come to visit her every day.

So her days here weren't too boring.

But there was still no news of a child, so sometimes she would get impatient.

She often thinks that if she didn't have a strong mental resilience, she would probably be driven crazy by all these things by now.

Gu Yihuai looked intently at Lin Qingran, but the two seemed to have little to talk about.

Lin Qingran knew that even if Gu Yihuai were to return to his former self, their relationship would never be as good as it used to be.

When Gu Yihuai left, he wrote a line in his notebook.

"We're waiting for you to come out."

When Lin Qingran saw this line of text, her eyes reddened slightly, but she quickly regained her composure, looked at Gu Yihuai, and nodded.

After Gu Yihuai left, Lin Qingran thought about it for a long time.

If Gu Moxuan had not returned to the Gu family.

If Chen Jinnan weren't Gu Moxuan, perhaps none of these complicated things would have happened.

Ultimately, she and Gu Moxuan were destined to be apart.

Lin Qingran finally realized that forced relationships are never sweet.

The day the trial began.

Lin Qingran was brought to the scene.

The entrance was surrounded by reporters.

As soon as Lin Qingran appeared, many reporters surrounded her.

Lin Qingran spotted Sheng Xia and her older brother in the crowd.

The two of them stood together, seemingly having made up, yet also seemingly not.

Zhao Sheng was also present. Lin Qingran looked at them and gave them a reassuring look before entering the courthouse under the guidance of the investigators.

Lin Qingran insisted on the not-guilty plea made by her lawyer.

This news has attracted a lot of attention.

In no time, the name Lin Qingran became a household name throughout the country.

Everyone is paying close attention to this matter.

This incident even sparked conflicting opinions on topics related to men and women.

Some say that Lu Xueqi's death was entirely due to her breaking up someone's family and attempting to kidnap their child.

Even if Lu Xueqi was really killed by Lin Qingran, she deserved it.

Because Lin Qingran was only protecting her child.

Meanwhile, some people say that the whole thing was caused by Gu Moxuan.

Suddenly, opinions were divided.

Online opinions about Lin Qingran are mixed.

Reporters, still unwilling to give up after seeing Lin Qingran being taken to the courtroom by investigators, pressed him for answers from behind.

"Ms. Lin, do you insist on a not guilty plea because you did not kill Lu Xueqi, or because you believe you are innocent?"

"Have you found your missing child?"

"..."

Lin Qingran stopped in her tracks when she heard them mention the missing child.

The investigators gave Lin Qingran a gentle nudge from behind, and Lin Qingran had no choice but to continue walking.

The people who came to listen to the court hearing filled all the seats behind Lin Qingran.

Lin Qingran sat in the defendant's dock, her expression calm and composed throughout the entire process.

When she came in, she even saw the fourth wife of the Huo family, wearing a wig, sitting in the audience.

Huo Wanqing sat next to the fourth wife of the Huo family.

The fourth wife of the Huo family did not look well; clearly, she had not fully recovered from her illness.

This trial was like a debate competition, and it lasted for a long time.

The result, naturally, was unsatisfactory.

Lin Qingran was sentenced to five years.

Five years...

It's not long, it's not long, it's not short.

Lin Qingran didn't defend herself at all. She knew that in the face of this evidence, all her words would seem extremely pale and powerless.

No one cares what she says; they only care about what kind of evidence she submits.

There is no evidence against Lin Qingran.

Lu Xueqi used her life to imprison her for five years, condemning her to the title of murderer for the rest of her life.

Lin Qingran didn't know whether Lu Xueqi thought it was worth it.

Perhaps in their eyes, anything they do is worthwhile as long as they can break her and Gu Moxuan apart.

But what they didn't know was that her relationship with Gu Moxuan was fragile and couldn't withstand any disturbance.

Love has always been the easiest, cheapest, and most easily discarded thing.

In terms of reality, interests, and life, it is utterly insignificant.

When Lin Qingran was sentenced, the fourth wife of the Huo family, who was in the audience, fainted on the spot.

Lin Qingran looked in her direction, her eyes welling up with tears.

She searched the gallery but couldn't find the man.

She thought that the man would at least come to see her one last time, but to her surprise, he didn't show up.

Lin Qingran didn't feel too disappointed.

The investigators came over and took her away.

Attorney Liu sat at his defense table, looking as wilted as a frostbitten eggplant.

Lin Qingran knew that this case was the only one that Attorney Liu had ever lost in his career.

Attorney Liu's 100% win rate career was brought to an end by her.

Seeing the unwilling look in Lawyer Liu's eyes, Lin Qingran said softly to him.

"Attorney Liu, thank you for your hard work."

Upon hearing Lin Qingran's words, Attorney Liu raised his head, his brows furrowed, and his expression became unusually grave.

Lin Qingran slowly withdrew her gaze, said nothing more, and left under the guidance of the investigators.

Attorney Liu quickly caught up and ran up to Lin Qingran, speaking in a deep voice.

"Miss Lin, this case cannot end like this!"

Lin Qingran was taken aback upon hearing the voice.

After saying these words, Attorney Liu turned and left. As Lin Qingran watched his departing figure, she felt that he was exceptionally radiant and majestic.

Her eyes involuntarily reddened.
