Chapter 85: Trial by Three Courts
"What?" Zhong Mengfan almost jumped up, "Zhong Nianyao, are you kidding us?"
"Then you really wronged me." Zhong Nianyao looked innocent, "How could I have tricked you? I had no idea from the beginning to the end. It was you who was behind it!"
"Nian Yao, what is your purpose in doing this?" A trace of vigilance flashed in Zhong Minghao's eyes.
In other words, when Zhong Nian Yao said that there was no surveillance video, he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"My purpose is very simple!" Zhong Nianyao blinked and said with a smile, "It's just for fishing!"
As she spoke, she picked up her cell phone that had been placed on the coffee table, and the screen, which had been turned upside down, was immediately displayed in front of everyone.
When they saw the phone screen, the three people sitting across from them all changed their expressions. The screen indicated that the phone was currently on a call. The familiar number displayed on it was clearly Mr. Zhong's phone number.
In other words, Mr. Zhong had heard all the conversations they had just had here.
"Zhong Nianyao, you——"
Zhong Mengfan was furious and wanted to start cursing.
However, just as she opened her mouth, her hand was grabbed by Zheng Siling beside her. Seeing her mother shook her head, and thinking about the current situation, she gritted her teeth and swallowed back all the words she was about to say.
Zhong Minghao's face looked even uglier. He had never thought that he would be played around by a young girl.
"Uncle, aunt, I think what you should do now is to explain to grandpa and grandma." Zhong Nianyao shook her phone and continued, "Of course, there's also second uncle."
Zhong Minghao's face turned ashen, he gritted his teeth and glared at Zhong Nian Yao fiercely.
What else did he not understand at this moment? From the beginning to the end, Zhong Nianyao's so-called surveillance video was all lies, just to lure them into the trap.
"Everyone, gather in the hall now."
Mr. Zhong's majestic and low voice came from the other end of the phone. There was no doubt in his tone that what he gave was an order.
The call was hung up. Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook the phone, then said, "Uncle, aunt, cousin, we should go downstairs!"
After saying that, she left the room first.
Zhong Mengfan's face turned pale. She held Zheng Siling's hand tightly. "Mom, what should I do now? Grandpa and the others know everything. They won't let me go. And my second uncle, he will call the police to arrest me, right?"
"You're scared now!" Zhong Minghao glared at Zhong Mengfan fiercely. "Then why didn't you think carefully before you did this? Do you really think this is just your problem?"
When he said this, he couldn't help but reach out and tap Zhong Mengfan's forehead. "You are my child. Your brother is so smart, why are you so stupid? If I had known you were such a wretch, I really should have strangled you to death when you were born."
No matter whether they knew about what Zhong Mengfan did or not, it no longer matters now.
Prosperity is shared by all, and adversity is shared by all. Now, whether in the hearts of his father, mother, or Zhong Mingyu, they have all determined that this matter was done by their entire eldest family.
Although he didn't want Li Yiqiu to give birth to the child, especially after learning that it was a boy, he never thought of forcing Li Yiqiu to have a miscarriage.
Now his son is so old that he has even joined the family business. Moreover, Jinghao now has a place in the company.
After Li Yiqiu's child is born, she still has to wait until he grows up, and it is unknown how long it will take.
So, although I don't like it, I have never thought of harming anyone. However, now everyone will definitely think that everything Zhong Mengfan did was instigated by them.
What will their parents think of them in the future?
When he thought of this, the look he gave Zhong Mengfan became even more unfriendly.
Faced with Zhong Minghao's eyes filled with disgust and disdain, Zhong Mengfan felt a surge of fear in his heart and couldn't help but shrink behind Zheng Siling.
Now she regretted it, but at the beginning, she didn't agree to come to see Zhong Nianyao! It was her father who insisted on letting her come.
If I hadn't come here at the beginning, I wouldn't have been fooled by Zhong Nian Yao, and everything that's happening now wouldn't have happened.
This is clearly not her fault, why is everything being blamed on her now!
"Honey, now's not the time to pursue further responsibility," Zheng Siling said quickly to comfort him. "Whatever the reason, everything Meng Fan did has now been exposed. Mom and Dad will definitely hold them accountable. We should think carefully about how to deal with this."
"What else can we do now?" Zhong Minghao's face was full of dejection. He reached out and stroked his forehead. "We are about to go to trial. We can only leave it to fate."
In the hall——
Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong sat there, both of them with serious faces, not saying a word, but they made people feel afraid.
Zhong Mingyu sat on the sofa nearby, his face livid and a hostile aura emanating from his entire body. Just by looking at him, one could sense the rage he was carrying.
Zhong Jinghao also came down. He sat opposite Zhong Mingyu with a calm expression, without any abnormality. It was impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
As soon as Zhong Nian Yao entered, she could feel the depressing atmosphere inside.
However, she was not affected at all. She seemed casual. She found a seat and sat down lazily, holding her chin with one hand, looking like she was enjoying the show.
No one present paid any extra attention to Zhong Nianyao. Only Zhong Jinghao, when he looked at Zhong Nianyao, had a dark light in his eyes.
Shortly after Zhong Nian Yao sat down, Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling also brought Zhong Mengfan into the hall.
As soon as Zhong Mengfan entered the hall, she couldn't help but get nervous. Seeing the atmosphere inside, which looked like a trial, she became even more frightened. Even her steps were unsteady when she walked.
Soon, everyone except Zhong Mengfan was seated.
