When the verdict of Cheng Jianshe's trial was delivered to the Cheng family, everyone in the family was stunned.
The logistics department demanded that the Cheng family move out of the military compound today, as they wanted to reclaim the small villa where the Cheng family lived.
This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the Cheng family, who had grown accustomed to a comfortable life.
The Cheng family naturally blamed all the mistakes on Ye Fanxing.
In their view, if it weren't for Ye Fanxing, Cheng Jianshe wouldn't have been subjected to military law.
Huo Dongfang opened the door with a cold expression, stood on the steps, and looked down at the Cheng family members.
“If you think Cheng Jianshe’s sentence is too short, you can keep making trouble until Cheng Jianshe is executed.”
Liu Guiying spat at Huo Dongfang.
"Huo Dongfang, you're forcing a confession! You're framing an innocent man! My husband, Lao Cheng, couldn't possibly have broken the law!"
Huo Dongfang coldly retorted, "If you have any questions about the trial outcome, you are welcome to appeal."
Both the people and the physical evidence are still there.
In the military court, Cheng Jianshe utterly denied everything.
He confessed to his illegal acts without reservation.
From a legal perspective, Cheng Jianshe committed an unforgivable crime against Ye Heping.
From a moral standpoint, Cheng Jianshe committed an unforgivable crime against Ye Fanxing.
Unfortunately, military courts can only try Cheng Jianshe for violating military law, but cannot punish him for multiple crimes.
Liu Guiying was disheveled and cursing.
Her eyes were bloodshot, as if she were about to devour someone at any moment.
"Huo Dongfang, don't think you can fool the world. You're only targeting my Lao Cheng because of Ye Fanxing."
"So what if you slept with Ye Fanxing? You're impotent, what could you possibly do to Ye Fanxing?"
"The way you're treating my husband Cheng is just trying to win over Ye Fanxing!"
"If Su Mingyue doesn't want to marry you and live the life of a widow, then you should set your sights on Ye Fanxing..."
Liu Guiying's unreasonable and irrational behavior made Ye Fanxing's temples throb.
Huo Dongfang had always been distant and polite to her because of their different social statuses.
If Liu Guiying says something like that, wouldn't it just add to Huo Dongfang's worries?
"Liu Guiying, why was Cheng Jianshe sentenced? It's because my father risked his life to save him!"
"Not only was he ungrateful, he also refused to help someone in distress! He even deliberately moved the witness away to avoid his shameful deeds being discovered!"
"There are gods watching over you. You two, one openly scheming and the other secretly plotting, how dare you cause trouble for Uncle Huo?"
Liu Guiying rushed to Ye Fanxing in a flash.
"Stop talking nonsense! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Huo Dongfang, dressed in military uniform, stood on the steps, his posture upright like a pine tree on a cliff.
Those deep, dark eyes brimmed with the arrogant coldness of a lone wolf.
"Guards."
The guard stepped forward respectfully, "Sir."
"Throw out the unimportant people!"
"yes."
The guards immediately stood in front of Liu Guiying, like an iron wall blocking her from her rage.
He picked up Liu Guiying with one hand and dragged her to the courtyard gate like a dead hunter.
Meanwhile, Cheng Jianshe, stripped of his military uniform, stood outside the courtyard gate in handcuffs.
"Old Cheng!"
Liu Guiying struggled free from the guard's grasp and ran to Cheng Jianshe.
"How could they treat you like this? You only made a small mistake..."
The news of Cheng Jianshe's appearance before a military court had already spread throughout the military compound.
Initially, people were unaware of the crimes committed by Cheng Jianshe.
It wasn't until Cheng Jianshe's verdict was posted on the bulletin board that everyone realized that the seemingly upright and honest Cheng Jianshe was actually a despicable ingrate.
They are soldiers.
They are comrades-in-arms.
Once on the battlefield, they are bound together by life and death.
Ye Heping, undaunted by death, used his body to protect his comrades.
Cheng Jianshe actually refused to help his comrades who were dying, and even climbed to his position by stepping on their corpses.
If you judge others by your own standards, who wouldn't feel disheartened?
Originally, when they went to the battlefield, they would confidently entrust their backs to their comrades, believing that their comrades would not betray them.
Cheng Jianshe betrayed his comrades.
Such behavior is outrageous.
If we don't make an example of them, who will dare to entrust their back to their comrades in the future?
"Did Cheng Jianshe make a small mistake? He is ungrateful, abusing his power for personal gain, and bullying the weak!"
"Cheng Jianshe, how have you treated Ye Fanxing for the past four years? Aren't you ever afraid that Ye Heping will question you in his dreams?"
"If you ask me, we should continue to investigate everything Cheng Jianshe has handled. Someone with such wolfish ambitions as him has probably done countless other illegal things!"
The whispers and comments from those around him made Cheng Jianshe feel utterly ashamed.
He inwardly resented Liu Guiying, that fool.
The logistics department told them to move, so they obediently moved. What's all the fuss about?
She's ashamed that he has to come out in handcuffs to stop this?
"Liu Guiying, stop making a scene! Return what you owe Ye Fanxing to her as soon as possible!"
Liu Guiying, her neck stiff with anger, shouted, "How can you ask for something back after giving it away!"
"If you don't return it, then you can expect to be arrested on charges of robbery and theft!"
"And also, all of you, you'd better move out of the military compound right now! Stop causing trouble!"
