Chapter 038 Chapter 38
Chapter 38 (Exclusively published by Jinjiang)
Gu Yeliang sat in the dock, listening to Lin Ran's accusation with a gloomy face.
The evidence and witnesses he had carefully prepared were presented to him one by one, becoming solid evidence to slander him as a rapist.
The whole process went smoothly and effortlessly.
Absurd and out of control.
If the defendant was not Gu Yeliang himself, he would happily open a bottle of red wine to celebrate.
The evidence was conclusive and the judge announced the verdict on the spot.
"This court believes that the defendant Gu Yeliang violated the woman's will and used violence and coercion to force her to have sexual relations, which constitutes the crime of □. He is sentenced to five years and three months in prison..."
Gu Yeliang sat down weakly, and the lawyer helped him up: "I will find evidence and file an appeal."
Lin Ran burst into tears, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell.
Now that everything has settled, she can be reborn.
Gu Yi was in the audience, looking at Gu Yeliang who was trying his best to maintain his dignity, and smiled sneerfully.
An illegitimate child is an illegitimate child, something that should not be seen in public.
He just used some tricks, but Gu Yeliang could no longer hide his true nature. A child born by a mistress could not be a good thing, and he should not have been born.
…
Haicheng Prison.
Sang Ya did not attend the trial date, but after Gu Yeliang was imprisoned, he took the initiative to visit him.
Gu Yeliang's eyes flashed with surprise, and he tried hard to force a smile: "Ya Ya, you came to see me."
Sang Ya's icy expression softened: "You've lost weight."
After just a few days in prison, Gu Yeliang became thin and haggard, with a skinny and fragile handsomeness.
Sang Ya: "What do you want to tell me?"
Gu Yeliang has been entrusting a lawyer and an assistant to meet with Sang Ya.
So, the mulberry sprouts are coming.
The corners of Gu Yeliang's eyes turned slightly red: "Yaya, is your headache better?"
"You've lost a lot of weight. I'm sorry I made you sad again."
Sang Ya lowered her eyes and clasped her hands repeatedly: "Well, my headache is gone."
"we……"
Gu Yeliang spoke up: "Yaya, I only love you."
"I was wrongly accused. Gu Yi framed me."
Sang Ya stopped talking: "How can I trust you?"
Tears welled up in her eyes and her lips trembled. She looked so emotional that Gu Yeliang felt relieved.
Sang Ya still cares about him, that's enough.
"I have a way." Gu Yeliang said softly: "Go see someone and you will get the answer."
"Yaya, you are all I have."
"Help me, okay?" Gu Yeliang looked into Sang Ya's eyes with deep affection.
Destruction precedes reconstruction, and mulberry buds are a key link.
***
Shen Baili has been following Gu Yeliang's case and she learned the result of the first-instance verdict in a timely manner.
Gu Yeliang was imprisoned, and Lin Ran returned to campus life after receiving psychological counseling.
Neither of them is a good person. Gu Yeliang brought this upon himself. Shen Baili even felt that his sentence was too light.
Lin Ran is pitiful, but she is not innocent.
…
Shen Baili analyzed the chapters that were opened and found no evidence of collusion between Lin Ran and Gu Yeliang. Was she going to be let off so easily?
If Gu Yeliang was the mastermind, then Lin Ran was an accomplice, but she escaped legal punishment.
This isn't how the world should be.
Shen Baili is not the embodiment of justice, nor is she a police officer. She is just a 15-year-old high school student.
She thought of a way and prepared to send an anonymous email to the police station. A Deng said it could hide the IP address.
But if we do this, will Gu Yeliang be released because he is innocent?
She was worried and had no one to talk to except Ah Deng.
Ah Deng doesn't understand people's troubles, he can only listen quietly and stay by their side.
Shen Baili thought about it all night but still couldn't come up with the best solution. Unexpectedly, the next day, this case with solid evidence took a shocking turn.
Sang Ya and lawyer Gu Yeliang cooperated to provide a series of evidence that Lin Ran used the excuse of being violated to blackmail him, including voice, video, text, etc. Lin Ran was speechless.
When Lin Ran was arrested by the police, she was in the school auditorium, listening to a lecture by her most admired architecture master.
She was lucky enough to get the chance to interact with her idol and received his autograph and encouragement.
The international exchange program she applied for was approved, and she will soon go to a top architecture school for further studies.
The nightmare is over and Lin Ran will have a wonderful life. She is looking forward to it very much.
The envious eyes of her classmates, the dream that was about to come true, and the freedom to live as she pleased...she had never been so happy before.
When the police arrived, Lin Ran was caught off guard and she was arrested on the spot in full view of the public.
The shocked looks from her idol and friends almost shattered her self-esteem.
In just a few minutes, she experienced a journey from heaven to hell, and prison life was waiting for her.
Lin Ran didn't dare to look anyone in the eye. She knew her life was over. At that moment, the shame, fear, and other negative emotions of having her lie exposed followed her like a shadow.
She was scared and she regretted it.
But time cannot go back.
…
Lin Ran was sentenced to three years in prison for extortion and was expelled from school. The entire school was informed of the incident.
The school attaches great importance to this incident and has organized a school-wide fraud prevention campaign, which aims not only to prevent college students from being deceived, but also to use the "Lin Ran incident" as an example to educate students not to go astray.
Lin Ran, who has always been keen on being in the spotlight, is not only well-known throughout the school, but his bad reputation has even become a hot topic.
Of course, those Lin Ran in prison don’t have mobile phones and cannot see the news in real time.
***
The other side.
After Gu Yeliang was released from prison, he set about arranging to clear the charges against him, which attracted a wave of attention and sympathy. The stock price, which had fallen due to the rape case, is slowly recovering.
Netizens are talking about how they are excellent surfers during this period.
"I thought it was a honey trap, but it turned out to be blackmail."
"A fly won't bite an egg that's flawless. Is this Mr. Gu really okay?"
"If you think there is a problem, call the police."
"I thought I would see the domineering CEO go to jail. I was overthinking."
"I heard that Mr. Gu's girlfriend never left him and kept running around for him. This is a love story that has turned the novel into reality."
"Young people should stay on the right path and not think of taking shortcuts. The law is long and wide and nothing can escape it."
…
Gu Yeliang walked out of prison, feeling as if it was just another day.
Looking at Sang Ya standing at the door to greet him, Gu Yeliang ran over quickly and hugged her with his uninjured hand.
"Ya Ya, thank you."
Sang Ya resisted the urge to dodge: "What's wrong with your hand?"
She deliberately touched his plastered hand, and Gu Yeliang cried out in pain.
Sang Ya: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. Does it hurt?"
Gu Yeliang shook his head and said firmly, "It's okay."
"The people in the prison thought I was a rapist, and I hurt my hand during the conflict."
He deliberately downplayed the situation, yet explained the reason at the same time, hoping that Sang Ya would sympathize with him.
Gu Yeliang has always known that Sang Ya has a point that she herself does not know: she has an extreme sense of salvation for fragile men.
She would pity him and then fall in love with him.
Gu Yeliang took advantage of this and made Sang Ya voluntarily help him.
He would keep telling her: Gu Yeliang needs mulberry buds, mulberry buds are all he has.
Mulberry buds couldn't resist.
However, he did not discover, or rather ignored, Sang Ya's fatal flaw.
Sang Ya loved him most when he was loyal.
Sang Ya hated him the most when he was unfaithful.
As if it was destined, they had a deep connection, a bad fate.
…
Gu Yeliang returned to the old house of the Gu family, but what greeted him was not a cleansing banquet, but humiliation and admonition.
The laughter in the living room had nothing to do with him.
Gu Yi and Gu Zheng are a family, and he is a despicable intruder who disrupts their happy life.
When Gu Yeliang stepped into the living room, the laughter disappeared.
Gu Zheng: "You beast, what are you doing back here?"
"You're a piece of crap that can't even control your lower body."
Gu Yeliang forced a smile and said, "I can't control my lower body. Didn't I learn that from you? Otherwise, where would I be?"
"It was your precious son who gave me..." an aphrodisiac.
Before he could finish his words, a vase came flying towards him, hitting him on the head and landing on his shoulder.
Gu Yeliang groaned, his eyes red as he complained: "If you want to protect Gu Yi, why did you take me home?"
"Sometimes I wish I were an orphan without a father or a mother, so I wouldn't have any expectations of you."
"You are Gu Yi's father, but you are also my father."
Blood oozed from Gu Yeliang's shoulder, and he looked at Gu Zheng with tearful eyes, full of hurt... and expectation for fatherly love.
Gu Yi wanted to speak, but Gu Zheng glared at him and said, "Shut up."
Gu Zheng felt guilty and soft-hearted: "I'll ask the family doctor to come over and check your shoulder."
"Don't you like the villa in Yulong Bay? I will transfer it to your name. You have been wronged."
"You are brothers, you should help each other."
Gu Zheng put an end to the matter with a few casual words.
Gu Yeliang's eyes seemed moved: "Thank you, Dad."
Gu Yi sneered: "Soft bone."
Gu Zheng sternly rebuked: "Gu Yi, if you say one more word, get out of here."
Gu Yeliang's expression did not change: "Dad, I'm a little tired. I'll go upstairs first."
Gu Zheng said lovingly, "Have a good rest."
Gu Yeliang walked upstairs, where no one could see him. His eyes became colder and colder, without a trace of emotion.
Oh.
One day, he would crush them all.
Gu Yeliang was not wrong. In his impoverished world, only mulberry buds remained.
***
Sang Ya just returned home and found that she and Gu Yeliang were on the hot search list.
Her photo and that of Gu Yeliang was placed in the most conspicuous position at the prison gate.
In the photo, she was full of affection and heartache, and Gu Yeliang gently hugged her with his uninjured hand, as if she was his whole world.
The photos are very beautiful and full of love, and you can tell at first glance that they are a couple.
The caption is indeed true.
Sang Ya's gaze lingered on the trending searches for a long time, and he only felt irony.
The public relationship she had always wanted was achieved in a calculated way.
Gu Yeliang called and Sang Ya pressed the answer button.
"Ya Ya, where are you?"
Sang Ya felt as if she was wandering in this world, her emotions were separated from her body, and now the person talking to Gu Yeliang was a corpse without a soul.
"I just got home."
“I saw the trending search.”
Gu Yeliang's voice, filled with guilt, traveled from the receiver to his ears through the electric current.
As magnetic as ever, it was her favorite sexy voice.
"I'm sorry Yaya, I didn't know there were paparazzi taking pictures."
"If you're willing, let's take this opportunity to make it public." Gu Yeliang stated his purpose.
"I love you."
"I want to announce to the world that Sang Ya is Gu Yeliang's girlfriend."
Sang Ya readily agreed: "If you're sorry..."
Just accept my punishment cheerfully.
It doesn’t matter whether it is public or not.
Gu Yeliang couldn't hear her murmur clearly: "Yaya, what did you say?"
Sang Ya readily agreed: "Okay."
"Just make it public."
At least this relationship was not an underground affair that was hidden from the public in the end.
Sang Ya figured it out and decided to finish it herself.
Gu Yeliang looked at his own smile in the mirror, warm and brilliant, yet so strange.
"Yaya, I'm so happy."
Sang Ya: "Grandpa is back, we will talk later."
Gu Yeliang laughed as he watched the call being hung up immediately, then contacted his assistant to do public relations.
He arranged the paparazzi.
Gu Yeliang needs a bigger piece of news related to him to wash away the negative image he has left in the public mind.
What can attract people's attention more than a love story that lasts forever and never leaves each other?
It not only fulfilled Sang Ya's long-cherished wish, but also allowed Gu's Technology to reach a higher level.
Kill three birds with one stone.
Gu Yeliang's official Weibo account reposted the news: "When the whole world was moving against me, only you came towards me."
"Thank you, my love."
He spent money to hire some trolls, and with the help of marketing accounts and paparazzi, this Weibo post quickly became popular and promoted the topic of true love among wealthy families.
"Wow, how romantic."
"A rich president and a rich daughter, a love story of equal strength."
"Mr. Gu, you have to treat your girlfriend well!"
"You are the only one who believes me. I want to cry."
“Rich people always marry.”
"He has both money and love."
…
Shen Baili looked at the trending searches with mixed feelings.
She thought that Sang Ya's beating up Gu Yeliang at the banquet was a sign that she had come to her senses and decided to draw a clear line between herself and the scumbag.
Now that her relationship is public, her love brain is hopeless.
Shen Baili was not overly sympathetic, she just felt it was a pity. Sang Ya should have had a better future. Was it worth giving up everything for a man?
…
Shen Baili discussed this matter with Shen Wan, and they both agreed that it was not worth it.
"In this world, no one is worth giving everything for except yourself." Shen Wan touched her daughter's head and said softly.
"But I'm willing to give everything for my mother."
She said softly.
Shen Wan: "Sui Sui, you are the most precious gift God has given me."
"Mom hopes you are safe and happy."
The arrival of her daughter warmed her whole world.
***
A lot of major events have happened in the past few months, especially the Gu Yeliang case. From arrest to trial, to appeal, etc., the truth kept turning around, and it took nearly two months in total.
Shen Baili kept asking Ah Deng, but its energy bar did not change, it remained steadily at 30%, and no new chapter was opened.
Why is this? Is there any special plot that needs to be triggered?
In the original story, Sang Ya and Gu Yeliang made their relationship public at about this time. They also appeared on a dating variety show together and became the most popular CP of the year, gaining huge traffic benefits.
etc!
The plot about Xie Zhiyu has changed, but the key plot of Sang Ya and Gu Yeliang has not deviated, although there are twists and turns in the middle.
No!
Shen Baili was browsing the trending searches, but she always felt that something was not right.
Her sixth sense was soon confirmed.
Before the two people’s public relationship had even left the trending searches, it was pushed down by another piece of news.
#Infatuated girlfriend Sang Ya sacrificed her family for the sake of justice and reported her boyfriend Gu Yeliang's company accounts under her real name, saying that he had falsified taxes and evaded hundreds of millions of yuan. #
Gu Yeliang, who had just been released from prison, was put into police custody again.
