The officer spoke without expression, "Miss, if you don’t have conclusive evidence, please don’t slander others at will, and if you do, go and report it to the authorities. Moreover, if you continue to obstruct our investigation, we have the right to arrest you."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuemei dared not make another sound, tears streaming down her face incessantly.

She couldn’t afford to go to jail; if she were taken away, how could she help Jianren?

As for evidence, she was knocked out with a stick at the time and hadn’t seen anyone. How could she have any evidence to prove that it was that bitch Lin Lan who did this!

Two days later.

The court simultaneously heard the cases of Xia Jianren hiring thugs to insult his wife and Mrs. Xia’s divorce petition.

On the day of the official trial, Mrs. Xia arrived with only Xia Ningxing and her five brothers.

Mrs. Lu, who was a close friend and concerned, also came along, as did Lu Tingli, whom Mrs. Lu had dragged along with her.

As for her family members, Mrs. Xia had not informed any of them; she didn’t want her family to worry, and she was even more ashamed to speak of such matters.

From the Xia family’s side, Old Mrs. Xia and Uncle Xia’s family were present, along with Fang Yuemei and Xia Jiaojiao.

Upon seeing each other, both groups’ eyes turned blood red.

They wished they could kill each other right there.

The trial begins!

The court was now the domain of the judge and the attorneys from both sides.

There were no verbal battles because this lawsuit was particularly easy to win. First of all, Xia Jianren had made two fatal mistakes.

First, hiring someone to insult his wife.

Second, cohabiting illegally and having a child.

Due to these two charges, the court agreed to Mrs. Xia’s divorce petition and ruled that Xia Jianren was to leave the marriage with nothing, with all the assets awarded to Mrs. Xia as compensation.

Now, Mrs. Xia not only got back the seventy thousand she had been swindled out of but could also take possession of Scum Daddy’s factory, house, and car, worth about five hundred thousand!

Furthermore, Xia Jianren would also be sentenced to three years with a five-year suspended sentence for hiring thugs to insult his wife, attempted.

A suspended sentence means serving time outside of prison.

It can also be understood as: you are not immediately incarcerated but released while your observation period is extended.

If, within five years, Xia Jianren abides by the stipulations of his suspended sentence, then after the five-year period, he won’t have to serve the three-year sentence, otherwise, he would be immediately subjected to the three-year imprisonment!

The reason for granting a suspended sentence was partially because Xia Jianren had previously joined a rescue team and made commendable contributions, and also because Fang Yuemei had been seeking favors everywhere.

Even with such a lenient sentence, Xia Jianren couldn’t help but feel a darkness before his eyes, and his body, clothed in prison garb, swayed involuntarily.

He had lost everything!

The villa, the house, the factory!

All of it was going to that little bitch Lin Lan!

And he would be on suspended sentence for five years.

Although he had anticipated this outcome from the beginning, when it actually happened, he still couldn’t accept it and felt utterly desperate.

Hearing this judgment, Xia Ningxing was actually not very satisfied; but thinking about Scum Daddy ending up with nothing, she felt it was somewhat acceptable.

But what she didn’t expect was that Xia Jianren wouldn’t repent and instead continued on his path to self-destruction!

After the lawsuit ended, Xia Ningxing directly approached Qin Zicheng, who was preparing to leave, and tugged at his sleeve, "Uncle Qin, thank you for your help during this time."

Fitting of a future star lawyer, he handled the entire process without her needing to worry about anything.

"Don’t mention it, this is what we lawyers are supposed to do," Qin Zicheng bent down, raising his hand to pat her fluffy head.

If anyone should be saying thank you, it was actually him who should be thanking her. If not for her trust in him to handle the lawsuit, he, who was short on money, might have ended up on the streets or had to go back to the countryside to farm.

Xia Ningxing blinked her clear eyes and pulled a passbook from her backpack, handing it to him, "Uncle Qin, take this."
