Chapter 224: Court Opening 3
Wang Kangming looked at his old friend standing opposite him, and his heart revealed a state of mind that he had not felt for a long time. The two burly men, from young men at the beginning, have now become middle-aged men with gray hair on their temples. However, Chen Mei, the little girl next door who they both cherished as a treasure, has passed away because of the mistakes he made over the years.
Wang Kangming's hands trembled slightly, and he had no power to fight back. Kong Yu and the mysterious man hiding in the dark behind Kong Yu were definitely extremely smart. They were even very sophisticated in their methods, and the people they invited were extremely tricky.
Not to mention, before Wang Kangming came, he did not ask a lawyer to find witnesses to defend him, and he even just hired a lawyer of above-average level.
Otherwise, with his previous power, he could have found a better lawyer. Although not as good as Kong Yu, he could have turned the tide.
Wang Kangming also knew that, apart from everything else, being able to invite these people and find these evidences already meant that they were people with sufficient background and ability. He came here today just to go through the process.
However, what Wang Kangming couldn't figure out the most was who wanted to expose all his secrets. Except for a man who he never saw eye to eye with, Qin Chenyi. Apart from him, Wang Kangming couldn't think of anyone else who would deliberately target him and have such a terrible power. The other three major families, the Su family, the Lin family, and the Jiang family, should have turned a blind eye to these things, and he had no deep intersection with them. And Qin Chenyi had never done anything to sacrifice himself to achieve his goals, not to mention that day when he was killed by his daughter...
That’s right! If Qin Chenyi wants to achieve a goal, he might risk it all! That goal can only be his weak spot.
Wang Kangming once heard from his cousin Zhu Zhu that Qin Chenyi's weakness was Miss Lin Xiaoqi from the Lin family. The two had dated for a period of time when they were in high school, but later, for some unknown reason, they broke up due to some conflicts and have not reconciled until now.
He had heard about the news that Miss Lin Xiaoqi from the Lin family had returned home after studying abroad, but he did not pay much attention to the news. After all, the fact that he had tried to get close to the Lin family and was rejected was enough to make Wang Kangming afraid of the Lin family. Moreover, if the Lin family and the Qin family really became in-laws, then perhaps the situation of the Lin family would be even better. Under such circumstances, how could Wang Kangming dare to cause trouble for the Lin family again?
Since Lin Xining appeared in the business circle as the head of the Lin family two years ago, his appearance and talent have been outstanding enough. Now after two years of training, he no longer looks so immature and unfamiliar in his methods, speech, behavior, etc., but more sophisticated and ruthless.
The resurgence of the Lin family made many people in the upper class want to get close to them. Lin Xiaoqi had Qin Chenyi to protect her, so this Lin Xining, the eldest master of the Lin family, could always help, right? In addition to Lin Xining, the other two young masters of the Lin family, Lin Xiechi and Lin Xie'ansheng, were not bad either. It was a pity that they had just reached adulthood and had not experienced the world. They were still studying in the academy, and their talents were only just beginning to emerge. It was impossible to tell how talented they were, so they did not dare to act rashly.
No wonder his cousin Zhu Zhu also liked Lin Xining very much when he was in high school.
Wang Kangming withdrew his gaze and saw that the judge was staring at him. He nodded heavily.
The lawyer was silent for a while, then he repeated the same words as before: "Your Honor, my client pleads guilty."
Kong Yu had already received Lin Xiaoqi's instructions. He looked up and said to the judge, "Your Honor, I request that my last witness appear."
The judge nodded, with a complicated look on his face: Why is this mayor, who is usually so decisive, so... listless now?
Is it because your lover died?
Although Wang Kangming regretted Chen Mei's death, it was also his fault.
Judge D put away his complicated expression, and replaced it with a calm look, and said to Kong Yu: "Bring it up."
Ye Xinxin put on perfect makeup today, and her black and white professional suit brought out her perfect body lines. She changed her depressed look from a few days ago and now looks like a successful woman full of energy.
When Wang Kangming saw her, he couldn't help but be stunned. He was a little surprised, but more of it was guilt.
He recalled how Ye Xinxin looked when he first met her at the Ye family. At that time, Ye Xinxin was still young. She was obviously a girl in her early twenties, but she was already able to be an excellent senior manager.
He didn't think so much at that time. For his own interests and future, he married Ye Xinxin home.
Little did he know that he had wasted the girl's life and completely shattered her yearning for that beautiful love.
When Wang Kangming saw Ye Xinxin who was so confident now, he had an illusion: it was as if the girl who bowed slightly to him in the mansion that year had come back again.
…
While Wang Kangming was reminiscing, Kong Yu had already spoken: "Miss, may I ask your name and occupation?"
Ye Xinxin smiled at Kong Yu and said, "I am Ye Xinxin, Wang Kangming's first wife. Before I got married, I was a small shareholder and design director of the original Ye Group."
The whole audience was in an uproar.
The judge frowned and shouted angrily, "No noise is allowed in this court!" But he was also shocked.
Who is the big shot behind this lawyer Kong? How could he invite the fourth daughter of the Ye Group, who was famous 20 years ago, to come here? "
Ye Xinxin looked at Wang Kangming, her beautiful eyes full of disdain.
Kong Yu deliberately paused for a few seconds.
Wang Kangming's face looked extremely haggard at this time. He slightly pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled at Ye Xinxin.
Ye Xinxin turned her head at this moment, leaving Wang Kangming with only the back of her head and her flowing hair.
Kong Yu asked: "Ms. Ye, may I ask about your experience?"
Ye Xinxin took a deep breath, then nodded to Kong Yu: "Okay."
Ye Xinxin began to explain: "You all know that I am Wang Kangming's ex-wife, no, ex-ex-wife. After all, the current mayor's wife has passed away, and even if she hadn't passed away, she would have been his third wife."
"At the beginning, Wang Kangming married me just for his future."
“The Ye family was very wealthy back then, unlike now when they have nothing left.”
“What could be better than a solid backdrop?”
Ye Xinxin forced a smile.
