Chapter 361 You are as dirty as me
Xu Guangyao stared at the group of people with a ferocious expression.
"Are you all here to laugh at me? You've ruined my whole life." His voice was as hoarse as if it had been ground by coarse gravel, making people feel a little uneasy.
Looking at his current appearance, Liu Huimin couldn't understand why she fell in love with him in the first place.
"Xu Guangyao, the evidence is irrefutable. I've consulted with a lawyer, and your first trial will likely result in an immediate verdict, most likely life imprisonment. You'll spend the rest of your life in prison."
Liu Huimin said coldly that she hated Xu Guangyao to death.
Xu Guangyao's eyes were bloodshot and scarlet.
He looked like he was going to eat someone.
He looked at Liu Huimin and Qiao Xi standing together, and suddenly attacked Qiao Xi: "Have you and Liu Huimin recognized each other? A country girl with no sense of sight can't resist the glory and wealth of the Liu family. Liu Huimin targeted you so much for Xingluo, and you actually still recognized her as your mother!
I know you look noble, but deep down you have half the same dirty blood as me."
His words were extremely hurtful.
Everyone else's faces turned grim, and they looked at Qiao Xi worriedly.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips tightly. If she were the old her, she would have collapsed and hated her birth after hearing such words.
But it’s different now!
She broke free from Huo Xingzhou's hand, slowly walked up to Xu Guangyao and said, "Your blood is indeed filthy, but the one who should be ashamed is not me, but you, who are worse than pigs and dogs."
"You and Ms. Liu are my biological parents, but who I become and what I do is up to me! I was taught from a young age to be an upright person, worthy of heaven and earth, and true to my conscience."
Qiao Xi understood Xu Guangyao's sinister intentions and said calmly, "Do you think these words can destroy my will? You underestimate the hardship I've endured. Only your proudest daughter, Xu Xingluo, would be unable to withstand a fall from such a height and go mad."
Xu Guangyao looked at her in a daze.
Xingluo is crazy?
No one passed the news to him. Was she crazy?
"Your good mistress, Shen Shiyun, has decided to testify in court as a tainted witness, accusing you of deliberately murdering your own daughter twenty-two years ago and silencing her."
Qiao Xi is not a saint.
Since Xu Guangyao refuses to repent, he wants to destroy her.
Then she wouldn't mind giving him these messages for free.
Xu Guangyao could barely stand, his throat churning and nearly spitting out a mouthful of sweet, fishy blood. It was as if all his strength had been drained from him, and he saw stars. His mind, like a dying man, recalled the events of his past half-life.
He vaguely remembered a brief period when his resentment towards the Liu family was not so deep, and he also hoped to have a beautiful and lovely daughter with Liu Huimin.
"Walk."
The two staff members took him into the trial court.
Qiao Xi took a deep breath, her voice a little hoarse: "Xu Guangyao, have you ever regretted it?"
Xu Guangyao's hunched back paused for a moment, and his voice was barely audible: "I... regret..."
Qiao Xi's eyes were red.
She clenched her hands into fists, desperately trying to suppress the tears welling up in her eyes. Liu Huimin, watching from the side, sobbed uncontrollably. She still couldn't break her tearful habit; her eye sockets were too shallow.
Xu Yunye said hoarsely, "The trial has begun. Let's go in first."
He reached out and carefully tugged at Qiao Xi's sleeve: "Shall we go?"
Qiao Xi slowly held his slender hand and nodded.
A smile bloomed in Xu Yunye's eyes, clear and joyful.
…
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Xu Guangyao's trial officially began.
Given the irrefutable evidence, Xu Guangyao's defense lawyers could only focus on sentencing, hoping to mitigate his client's sentence. However, Xu Guangyao's crime was too serious.
The mere fact of swapping the baby girl and attempting to kill Liu Zongyun to silence him twenty-two years ago was already a serious matter.
Not to mention that he wanted to send Li Daming abroad, instructed Lao Mao to follow him and attempted to kill him.
Economic crimes are also involved.
Multiple crimes will be punished together.
The two-hour process was over.
The judge's solemn voice rang out: "This court believes that the facts are clear and the evidence is indeed sufficient. The verdict will be pronounced in court."
Everyone stand up.
Qiao Xi stood up and looked at Xu Guangyao in the courtroom, her heart aching. The tall man next to her stretched out his finger and hooked her palm.
Qiao Xi looked at him, pursed her lips and tried hard to force a smile.
"The verdict will begin now!"
"The defendant, Xu Guangyao, is suspected of intentional homicide and is sentenced to life imprisonment...with the loss of his...Trials are not about avenging evil, but about promoting good. The court hearing is concluded and is now adjourned."
The judge's gavel fell, and the verdict was decided.
Xu Guangyao will have to spend the rest of his life in prison, which is endless torture for him who has always lived a life of luxury.
He was taken away by bailiffs.
Many of the rich young men who were watching the fun in the audience also left.
They whispered, "Xu Guangyao is such a pervert. How could he do such a cruel thing?"
"I heard that the Liu family's real daughter is not dead, but the Liu family still hasn't found her. What does this mean?"
"She might not be able to be shown to the public. Even if she didn't die, her end would definitely be bad. What if she was sold to a remote village and became an illiterate, bearing children and doing housework for a lazy man? Wouldn't that be even more shameful for the Liu family?"
"That's true."
"It's so pitiful. She is the biggest victim."
Sun Weimeng cursed when he heard their nonsense: "What's your business! Gossiping behind people's backs is even more annoying than an old woman. How do you know that the Liu family's real daughter is not doing well? What if she is doing very well?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Qiao Xi.
In court, Qiao Xi's identity was not revealed at all.
The Liu family did not dare to reveal it casually. Only a few people in the entire Haicheng guessed Qiao Xi's identity, but no one would say it openly without the Liu family's approval.
These silly youngsters are naturally unaware of this.
"Young Master Sun, we're just talking."
"Brother Sun, you are well-informed. Do you know something about this?"
"I know nothing."
Sun Weimeng raised his leg and kicked them on the buttocks. "Hurry back. I still have to go find Huo Xingzhou to flatter him. Don't follow me. I'm the only one who can flatter Huo Xingzhou."
"Brother Sun is still awesome!"
Flattery can make the Sun family take off, but now the Tian family is far behind.
The Sun family has the final say on real estate in Haicheng.
Sun Weimeng's tail was about to rise to the sky. He squeezed next to Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi. He wanted to say something, but found that Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou were both looking at the young man walking out of the court exit.
Wow!
He couldn't help but exclaim: "Who is so stylish?"
Many people watched, not knowing who the other person was, but judging by his appearance, he looked extremely noble. They speculated that this stranger must not be a noble from Haicheng, but perhaps came from somewhere else.
Qiao Xi pursed her red lips and said, "It's the Zhong family from the imperial capital."
She had seen Zhong Yi and his assistant, Wan Jiang, during the trial; they seemed to be meeting more frequently recently. She didn't know what this Young Master Zhong was up to.
"So it's the Zhong family, no wonder!"
Sun Weimeng still has some knowledge. The Zhong family in the imperial capital is a prominent and powerful family.
The Sun family will never be able to catch up in their entire lives.
As they were talking, they saw the elegant and graceful young man walking towards them.
