Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

The judge looked at Qin Min.

"While serving as the deputy head of the sales section of the tobacco bureau, the defendant took advantage of his position to secretly collude with unscrupulous businessmen."

“He abused the power granted to him by his position to embezzle and accept bribes on a large scale, and treated the trust of the country and the people as a tool to seek personal gain.”

“The unauthorized resale of tobacco with a high unit value, which should have been strictly managed in accordance with regulations and procedures.”

"In order to satisfy his own selfish desires, the defendant illegally resold the goods and made an astonishingly large amount of personal profit."

"Not only that, he also embezzled public funds on multiple occasions for personal extravagance, without any restraint, and completely disregarded the interests of his family and the public organization."

"His actions seriously violated national laws, harmed the interests of the country and the people, and brought great negative impact to the whole society."

Upon hearing about these crimes, a complex emotion flashed in Chen Xiumei's eyes.

She recalled all the moments she had shared with Qin Min, and her heart was filled with bitterness.

Chen Xiumei said softly, "Back then, I trusted him so much and loved him with all my heart, but he..."

Li Huazhen gently patted her shoulder and said in a gentle yet firm tone, "Xiumei, everything is almost over."

"We've made it through. From now on, our family will live a good life together."

"Whatever happened in the past, it's all in the past."

"We must look forward; a happy life awaits us in the future."

Qin Min stood in the dock, his head bowed low, looking quite disheveled.

His eyes were vacant, staring blankly ahead, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

The judge looked at him and asked sternly, "Defendant Qin Min, do you plead guilty to the above charges?"

Qin Min's voice trembled with tears as he said, "I confess. I'm sorry to my family, I'm sorry to the organization, I was wrong..."

"I was only thinking about my own interests at the time, and I was blinded by greed, which led me to do these outrageous things."

"Looking back now, I really regret it."

But what Qin Min truly regretted was...

"If I had known it would be reported so easily, I should have handled it more carefully from the beginning."

"So that no one can find out about their illegal or disorderly conduct."

With the evidence so conclusive, the trial in this case did not take long.

Soon after Qin Min confessed, the judge slowly stood up and solemnly walked to the reading platform.

His voice echoed throughout the courtroom: "Defendant Qin Min is found guilty of embezzlement, bribery, illegal tobacco sales, and misappropriation of public funds!"

"As pronounced by this court, Qin Min is sentenced to fifteen years imprisonment and his personal property is confiscated..."

Upon hearing the verdict, the courtroom erupted in cheers.

Some people whispered among themselves, some shook their heads and sighed, and some secretly rejoiced.

Li Huazhen frowned slightly and said with a hint of regret, "They only sentenced this beast to fifteen years. I thought he would rot in jail."

Upon hearing this, Chen Guilan quickly chimed in, "Sister-in-law is right. I also think that sentencing this kid to only fifteen years is indeed too lenient."

“He caused so much harm to Xiumei, almost plunging our whole family into crisis, so he deserves to be punished more severely.”

Chen Meiju quickly chimed in, "Exactly! That's too easy on him. Did he really think his little tricks could fool everyone?"

"Now he's finally in jail, which is a lesson for him."

"However, fifteen years is really a short time. When he comes out, he probably won't have learned his lesson."

Chen Jianguo gently patted Chen Xiumei's hand, his voice tinged with a hint of relief.

He comforted him, saying, "Alright, this beast deserved what he got. Let's not let this kind of man-made disaster affect us anymore."

Chen Xiumei raised her head slightly, glared hatefully at Qin Min's back, and then slowly nodded.

Then, her eyes were full of anticipation for the future: "I know, Dad. From now on, let's live a good life and forget all those unpleasant things from the past."

After leaving the court, Chen Dong and his family did not go home, but instead found a restaurant nearby to eat.

Because there was another trial in the afternoon concerning Qin Min and Chen Xiumei.

That was the divorce case between Chen Xiumei and Qin Min.

In the afternoon, sunlight filtered through the dappled clouds and shone on the old yet solemn courthouse building.

A crucial divorce ruling for the Chen family is about to take place here.

The main characters are the tormented eldest sister Chen Xiumei and the scoundrel Qin Min who betrayed his family.

Inside the courtroom, the atmosphere was oppressive and suffocating.

Chen Xiumei sat in the plaintiff's seat, her posture upright but unable to hide the weariness and determination in her eyes.

The lawyer beside her looked serious, preparing to work hard to protect Chen Xiumei's rights.

The lawyer cleared his throat and stated clearly and forcefully: "Your Honor, the marital relationship between the plaintiff Chen Xiumei and the defendant Qin Min has now reached a point of no return."

"Qin Min, the man whom Chen Xiumei once placed endless trust and love in, has committed a despicable act."

"He abused his position to embezzle public funds to keep Liu Sijing as his mistress, and lived with her as husband and wife for a long time, and they had a son."

"This behavior not only seriously violates the duty of fidelity between spouses, but also constitutes de facto bigamy."

"Qin Min's actions caused Chen Xiumei great physical and mental harm. Her spirit was severely damaged, and her life was plunged into endless pain and darkness."

"Therefore, as the plaintiff's lawyer, on behalf of the plaintiff Ms. Chen Xiumei, I request the court to rule that the marriage between Chen Xiumei and Qin Min is invalid, after fully considering the factual and legal basis."

"To uphold the sanctity of the law and protect the legitimate rights and interests of the plaintiff, Chen Xiumei."

After listening to the lawyer's statement, Qin Min lowered his head, sat in the defendant's seat, and clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

He seemed to have no remorse whatsoever, and his face even hinted at a trace of resentment and bitterness.

In truth, deep down, he didn't want a divorce at all.

He thought to himself, "How did I get to this point? Why should I admit to all this?"

“It’s all Xiu Mei’s fault that she can’t have children. It’s her fault that I sought comfort outside.”

Chen Xiumei slowly raised her head, her eyes no longer filled with the deep affection and longing for Qin Min, but instead with unwavering determination.

His eyes burned with the fury of betrayal, and also revealed the resolute determination to break free from constraints after enduring hardships.

She looked directly at the judge's bench and said in a clear and firm voice, "Your Honor, I stand here today only hoping to end this painful marriage as soon as possible and start a new life."
