The trial day was Monday, so Lan Shuang took a leave of absence from school and met Jin Xi and Li Yuanzi at the court gate.
"Wait a moment, my boyfriend and lawyer will be here soon."
Lan Shuang glanced at her cell phone.
Jin Xi and Li Yuanzi nodded, and Jin Xi said excitedly, "I've waited for so long, a little while longer won't hurt."
"Me too. As long as I can get that beast in, I'm willing to wait any longer!" Li Yuanzi has changed a lot in the past month and has become much more cheerful.
Lan Shuang smiled with relief.
Soon, a low-key luxury car stopped in front of them, and a man got out of the passenger seat first. "Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road, and I'm late."
Lan Shuang raised her eyebrows, "Jiang Siming? Why are you here too?"
Jiang Siming hadn't contacted Lan Shuang in the past month. Today was their second meeting. He was still a little embarrassed, but it seemed that he had come out of the shadow brought by Shen Yunxun.
He scratched the back of his head sheepishly and whispered, "I never found a suitable opportunity to apologize to you before. Plus, I was a little upset after the breakup, so I subconsciously avoided it. It's my fault. I heard from my uncle that you were in court today, so I shamelessly followed you here."
The driver's door opened. Jiang Lusheng was wearing a very formal suit today. His hair was combed up, revealing his smooth forehead, and his eyebrows and eyes looked even sharper.
However, this sharpness disappeared when he saw Lan Shuang.
He nodded to Lan Shuang and opened the door for the lawyer in the back seat. Lawyer Su thanked him and then went over to greet Lan Shuang and the others.
Jiang Lusheng walked over and whispered in Lan Shuang's ear, "My nephew is a nice guy. He said he wanted to apologize to you, so I brought him here."
Jiang Siming felt a little sad when he saw the two of them being so intimate as if no one was around. It was really uncomfortable to eat dog food right after a breakup.
Lan Shuang glanced at him, and Jiang Siming immediately stood up straight and said seriously, "I apologize to you for what happened before. I'm sorry. I didn't know that Shen Yunxun had impersonated you. If I had been more careful, this wouldn't have happened. I'm sorry."
He apologized and bowed to Lan Shuang.
He really felt guilty, Lan Shuang could see it. Thinking back to the original owner's memory, Jiang Siming really didn't do much to let her down.
He was deceived into being with Shen Yunxun, and it was normal for him to be hesitant after knowing the truth. After all, he had already invested his feelings, and it was not so easy to take them back. From the beginning to the end, he had not caused any substantial harm to the original owner.
Instigated by Chen Yunxun, he only said a few harsh words to the original owner, so the original owner did not have that much resentment towards him.
Since he sincerely repents, there is no need to hold on to him.
"I know it's a little late to apologize now, it's useless, and maybe you don't need it, but I still have to say that I blamed you because of her when I didn't know the truth. I'm really sorry."
Jiang Siming bowed to her again and said, "I don't have anything to compensate you with right now. If you encounter any trouble in the future and need help, just come to me. I will do my best to help you."
Lan Shuang smiled and shook her head. "I accept your apology, but I don't need your help. I have a boyfriend now. If I need anything, I will ask him for help to prevent him from getting jealous."
Jiang Siming: “…”
He almost forgot about it. He glanced at Jiang Lusheng cautiously. Jiang Lusheng laughed, "Ahem..."
"Lan Shuang will be your aunt from now on. You must respect her. Don't worry about anything else. I will take good care of her." Jiang Lusheng put his arm around Lan Shuang's shoulders and gave Jiang Siming a warning look.
Jiang Siming: "...I dare not."
Haha, he originally thought that Lan Shuang was exaggerating. He felt that although his uncle looked difficult to deal with, he had always had a good temper. He had never seen him quarrel with anyone. He didn't expect that he would be so jealous.
"Okay, the time is almost up, let's go in." Lan Shuang interrupted the two childish men and turned to look at Jin Xi and Li Yuanzi.
"good."
…
Chen Ting was brought in under escort. After receiving the court summons, he tried to run away, but was recaptured by Jiang Lusheng's bodyguards. When he appeared in court, he was still struggling and cursing.
However, when he saw Lan Shuang and the other two, he suddenly felt as if his neck was strangled and he became speechless.
"You...how did you get together? Do you know each other?"
Chen Ting looked at them in disbelief.
"quiet!"
The judge above shouted and then started the process. Chen Ting hired a lawyer, but this lawyer's professional ability was obviously not as good as Lawyer Su's. He also knew in his heart that his employer was a bad guy. He lacked confidence during the argument and his voice became smaller and smaller.
When the evidence was finally presented, they were completely speechless.
According to the law and the severity of the circumstances, Chen Ting was sentenced to three years in prison and fined 35,000 yuan, and was required to compensate Li Yuanzi, Jin Xi and Lan Shuang respectively.
Because Lan Shuang's crime was the least serious, the compensation she received was relatively small, and she directly divided the money between Li Yuanzi and Jin Xi.
When the verdict came down, Li Yuanzi burst into tears. She originally thought that she would have to live in Chen Ting's shadow for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect that there would be a day when she would see the light again.
Jin Xi hugged her and patted her back, and couldn't help but tear up.
"We are free and no longer have to worry about being threatened."
Lan Shuang shook hands with Lawyer Su. "Thank you."
Lawyer Su looked at them with satisfaction and said, "Congratulations, you have a new life."
Li Yuanzi and Jin Xi separated and shook hands with her one by one.
Jiang Siming looked at this scene and felt a lot of emotions, "It's really not easy for girls."
Jiang Lusheng put his hands in his pockets and looked at Lan Shuang with a smile, but he said to Jiang Siming, "So when we can, we should help as much as we can."
Jiang Siming seemed to be thinking about something and nodded, "Yeah."
Chen Ting walked past them with a dusty face, as if he had aged several years in an instant.
He looked at Lan Shuang and wanted to say something, but was pushed by the police who were maintaining order and said, "Go away."
Chen Ting almost bit his tongue and turned back dejectedly.
Lan Shuang smiled and said, "God is watching what we do. Retribution may be delayed but it will come."
As I walked out the door, the bright and dazzling sunlight outside dispelled all the haze.
"Congratulations, host. The female supporting character's resentment value has been reduced by thirty. All resentment values have been reset to zero. Another mission is completed!"
Lan Shuang suddenly said, "It's not just a mission completed, it's another grievance settled."
Lawyer Su had something else to do, so he left first. The others had nothing to do, so Lan Shuang suggested that everyone go out for dinner together to celebrate.
There happened to be a famous restaurant nearby, and Jiang Siming was worried about having no place to show off. Upon hearing this, he patted his chest and said proudly, "Everyone, eat as much as you want. It's my treat."
Then one meal cost him a month's living expenses. When he left, Lan Shuang vaguely heard the sound of his broken heart.
She and Jiang Lusheng looked at each other and laughed.
