Lu Zhengye was present on the day of the court hearing.
This incident has garnered even more attention than the last one, with people filming it from hundreds of meters away from the courthouse.
The Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the courthouse. Inside, Lin Yusheng took Lu Zhengye's hand and said, "Let's go."
Seeing this, Lu Shifan took his father's other hand and said, "Dad, let's go."
Looking at his wife and son's faces, Lu Zhengye's mood gradually calmed down.
When the family of three appeared in front of the crowd, all the cameras focused on them.
At this moment, another car stopped at the entrance, and Gu Yanting and Ji Huai got out.
Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "Luckily, we made it in time."
The reporters gasped in surprise. Wasn't that the K country's movie star? And standing next to him was his rumored girlfriend, Ji Huai.
News headlines, huge news headlines.
The camera snapped away, taking pictures.
Gu Yan walked over to Lu Zhengye's side and said, "Your uncle was worried that your grandfather wouldn't be able to handle the shock, so he asked me to come and see Lu Jiwen off."
Ji Huai: "After this is over, I'll go see your students and see if the solution I came up with has been effective."
"Mm." Lu Zhengye nodded.
Wei Qing also helped Lu Jitong out of another car. Although he still looked very weathered, he was wearing a suit that Lu Zhengye had customized for him.
Lu Jitong's appearance was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, and a large one at that, instantly creating ripples.
Reporters asked one after another, "Uncle Lu, could you tell us more details about what happened back then?"
"How did you come to collaborate with Mr. Lu?"
"Did Mr. Lu contact you?"
"Are you aware that the Lu family is involved in the sale of firearms?"
Were you involved?
"What are your thoughts on suing your own brother?"
...
The reporters' questions became increasingly sharp, even harsh.
Lin Yusheng couldn't listen to anything anymore. She wanted to say a few words in support, but Lu Jitong looked indifferent and walked away as if he hadn't heard the reporters' words.
The reporters were all very annoyed when Lu Jitong left.
He didn't answer a single question.
The reporters then turned their attention to Lu Zhengye and his group, but almost everyone tacitly chose to remain silent and await the court's verdict.
Inside the courthouse, Lu Jiwen and Xie Yuqiong, as the defendants, were placed under special guard.
Lu Zhengye and Lu Jitong sat in the plaintiff's seat, while the others, as family members, listened in from below.
When Gu Yanting first met Xiao Fanfan, she fell in love with him so much that she hugged him and kissed and pinched him.
I really don't know how someone like Lu Zhengye could have such a cute child.
Although Ji Huai didn't show it on his face, his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at Fanfan.
A few seats away, Lu Mochuan sat there, looking at the harmonious atmosphere among the group, and felt genuinely happy for his second brother. Fortunately, his future would be filled with happiness.
Lu Jiwen only looked up when he heard Lu Jitong's name. Although the two were not much different in age, they looked like they were more than ten years apart.
Lu Jitong naturally saw Lu Jiwen as well, but his face remained expressionless, as if he had just met a stranger.
But the next second, his voice came through the microphone, as calm as his expression, "I gave you thirty years, and you still haven't made any progress, and you've even squandered the family fortune."
Lu Jiwen had lived in Lu Jitong's shadow since childhood, and he was instantly stung. He said angrily, "So what? You still lost to me. You spent more than 30 years in prison for me. For more than 30 years, Dad has regarded you as a thorn in his heart and even forbids others from mentioning you. So what if you were glorious back then? You still have nothing now."
He admitted it directly, abandoning any chance to argue, just to poke at Lu Jitong's sore spot.
But Lu Jitong had long since become numb after more than thirty years in prison, and his expression remained unchanged.
"I didn't lose to you, but to so-called family ties."
Lu Jiwen said, "Don't give me any of that nonsense. A loss is a loss."
Lu Jitong stopped talking.
The first trial can be considered a one-sided conviction.
The evidence gathered by Lu Zhengye and others was presented one by one, and the evidence was irrefutable. Even Lu Jiwen's lawyer gave up the struggle.
After the court hearing ended, the judge told everyone to go home and wait for the next hearing.
Lin Yusheng immediately took her son to find Lu Zhengye. She gently held his hand, and as she expected, it was ice cold.
When the day actually arrived, Lu Zhengye didn't seem as happy as he had imagined; instead, he had a strange, indescribable feeling.
It's like a very important part of my life has been taken away, and suddenly I feel a huge emptiness in my heart, and I don't know what to fill it with.
Lin Yusheng said softly, "Let's go home first?"
"good."
Gu Yan could tell that Lu Zhengye was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to say anything sarcastic.
He said, "Ji Huai and I will go and take a look at Mu Li."
“Okay,” Lin Yusheng replied.
Once in the car, Gu Shifan, who is usually quite boisterous, sat obediently in his father's lap today and even warmed his father's hands with his little hands.
Even he could see that his father was different.
Lin Yusheng held Lu Zhengye's hand the whole time; she understood Lu Zhengye's feelings.
Although the revenge was taken, the deceased is gone and can never be seen again.
After taking revenge, he will only face greater loneliness.
"Aye, look outside."
Lu Shifan tried to create an atmosphere, saying, "It's so beautiful, all white."
Lu Zhengye looked out and saw the street receding into the distance, with bare trees on both sides.
Because it was the first snowfall of the year, many children were running around happily, and wisps of smoke rose from the roadside stalls and shops, as if you could smell the aroma as soon as you opened the window.
Lin Yusheng saw someone selling candied hawthorns ahead and quickly gestured to her son.
Lu Shifan instantly understood his mother's meaning upon seeing the candied hawthorns.
He excitedly tugged at his father, "Dad, Dad, there are candied hawthorns! I want to eat candied hawthorns!"
Lu Zhengye almost never refuses Lu Shifan and Lin Yusheng's requests, "Stop the car."
The driver found a place to park.
Lu Zhengye led his son and Lin Yusheng out of the car, and he immediately ordered two skewers.
Lin Yusheng: "Is one of these strings for me?"
"Otherwise what? I think you're even more greedy than Fanfan."
Lin Yusheng pretended to be angry and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the children, it will ruin my image."
Lu Zhengye couldn't help but reach out his index finger and hook her nose, "Your eyes are even brighter than Fanfan's."
Lu Shifan covered his mouth and giggled.
Just as Lin Yusheng was about to teach this arrogant brat a lesson, she heard the shopkeeper say, "Two candied hawthorns, here you go."
"Thank you." Lin Yusheng accepted the money, and Lu Zhengye paid.
The boss smiled and said, "You three are all very handsome."
