Chapter 76: Court Officially Opens
Lin Weixia was the first to react, and said with a sneer, "Shen Qianyu, I didn't expect you to be so scheming. Did you deliberately have someone beat you up like this to gain the judge's sympathy?"
I'm telling you, it's no use doing that; the judge only looks at the evidence.
Lu Xiuyuan quickly understood, and when he looked at Shen Qianyu, his face was filled with anger.
"Shen Qianyu, you have really disappointed me."
Since they were both in the news industry, they naturally sensed the story behind it.
They quickly shoved the microphone in front of Shen Qianyu.
"Miss Chen, did you have someone deliberately inflict the injuries on your face?"
"Miss Chen, why did you hit Madam Gu?"
"Miss Shen, your parents have severed ties with you. Is there anything else you want to say to them?"
"Miss Shen..."
Every word pierced Shen Qianyu's heart.
If Fu Yanci hadn't been by her side, she would have truly felt utterly alone and helpless.
The media personnel had been waiting for Shen Qianyu to speak, but Fu Yanci had someone protect Shen Qianyu as she went inside.
Just before entering, Shen Qianyu glanced at Lu Xiuyuan and the others, her eyes filled with indifference.
The trial is about to begin.
Fang Hui quickly came to Lu Xiuyuan's side: "Young Master, please do as you wish. We have already severed ties with her in front of the media. You don't need to worry about us. Do whatever you want."
Lin Weixia's lips curled into a look of disdain.
Shen Qianyu must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to have such parents.
The group went to the court together.
Shen Qianyu's side only had Fu Yanci; Yun Shu was unaware of this matter, so she did not come.
Needless to say, Lu Xiuyuan's side had many people there, including Yan Ye and his group.
Yan Ye really wanted to say a few words to Shen Qianyu, but he never had the chance, so he sent Shen Qianyu a message.
"Qianyu, I believe there must be some misunderstanding. I believe you didn't really want to hit Xiuyuan's mother. Tell me what's wrong, and I'll help you."
Shen Qianyu looked down at the message, but did not reply.
Yan Ye was extremely anxious. He didn't give up and sent another message to Shen Qianyu.
"Once the trial begins, it will definitely be detrimental to you, Qianyu. I can help you, please trust me?"
Shen Qianyu looked down again, but still did not reply.
Yan Ye didn't know why Shen Qianyu was so stubborn. He had already explained everything to her clearly, so why did she insist on holding the trial?
Even if Fu Yanci is by her side, so what?
Yan Ye shook his head weakly.
The judge has arrived.
The court hearing has begun.
The judge first questioned Lu Xiuyuan. While looking at Shen Qianyu, Lu Xiuyuan said, "I have a very good relationship with her. I admit that my mother does not like her, but I do not believe that this is her reason for hitting my mother. I am suing her today not only because I hope she will realize that she was wrong, but also because I want to know her reason for hitting her. Why did she do this?"
I've already said I'll mediate their relationship, so why does she have to hurt me?
The judge nodded, indicating that he understood, and then looked at Shen Qianyu.
"Defendant, what do you have to say?"
Shen Qianyu didn't look at Lu Xiuyuan, but kept looking at the judge.
"Your Honor, I believe the law is just and I believe you are fair. I admit that I did hit the plaintiff's mother, but it was in self-defense."
The situation was like this: on my way back, I was stopped by Chen Shirui, who, along with several other people, held me down and took me to Tang Ning's side.
Before I could even speak, Tang Ning ordered his men to beat me severely; this is what they did to my face.
Shen Qianyu's speech was a little hard to hear, but if you listened carefully, you could still hear it.
Lu Xiuyuan frowned: "No, my mother doesn't like you, but she would never do that."
Shen Qianyu looked at Chen Shirui with an extremely cold gaze and said, "Aren't you involved? You tell me, did such a thing really happen?"
Chen Shirui was still a little nervous, but considering that Lu Xiuyuan had already decided to sue Shen Qianyu, he must have taken care of everything.
She was relieved.
She stood up and said to the judge, "Your Honor, this is not true. Shen Qianyu made it all up."
Shen Qianyu's hand unconsciously clenched into a fist.
The judge looked at Shen Qianyu: "What do you say?"
"I didn't make this up."
Shen Qianyu's fist remained clenched.
Fang Hui stood up. "Your Honor, I request to speak with her."
The judge glanced at Lu Xiuyuan, who nodded.
After receiving permission, Fang Hui said earnestly to Shen Qianyu, "Qianyu, don't be so stubborn! It will be good for you to confess your sins as soon as possible."
Shen Qianyu sneered: "Who are you to me? Do I need you to persuade me?"
Fang Hui's expression froze: "I have severed ties with you, but why? Isn't it because you simply don't listen to me? This has escalated to the point where the media are all here, and it's being broadcast live. I'm doing this for your own good, to prevent you from ruining your future."
Shen Qianyu looked at the judge: "Judge, what kind of punishment will be given for perjury?"
"It depends on the severity of the matter. If it's serious, the sentence will naturally be several more years in prison. If not, a warning might be given."
Chen Shirui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Xiuyuan looked at Shen Qianyu: "Qianyu, I am not a heartless person, and we should not have come to this point. Considering that you took care of me before, I can give you one last chance."
Lu Xiuyuan looked like he was doing it for Shen Qianyu's own good.
Shen Qianyu could easily imagine what the people watching the live stream were saying.
They said Shen Qianyu was ungrateful and that she was determined to bang her head against a wall!
They'll say anything unpleasant, no matter what it is.
Shen Qianyu suddenly looked at Lu Xiuyuan, her eyes filled with a coldness and unfamiliarity that Lu Xiuyuan had never seen before.
For some reason, Lu Xiuyuan felt that if he had pushed Shen Qianyu far away before, there might be no room for reconciliation between them this time.
But wasn't all of this forced by Shen Qianyu?
Have you checked the surveillance footage?
Lu Xiuyuan, unsure of the problem, frowned and asked, "What's the problem? Should we check the surveillance footage?"
"So that means there isn't any?"
Chen Shirui was starting to get nervous; she gripped her clothes so tightly that they were almost wrinkled.
"No, we don't need it."
Lu Xiuyuan said it directly.
Chen Shirui was stunned.
She looked at Lu Xiuyuan in disbelief.
How could he not have checked the surveillance footage?
It's over, it's over.
Fang Hui noticed that Chen Shirui was acting strangely and asked in a low voice with concern, "Shirui, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you leave first?"
"I……"
Chen Shirui was gambling, and Shen Qianyu didn't get the surveillance footage.
Why would Fu Yanci do so much for her?
"I need it. Your Honor, could you please play the surveillance footage from that day?"
Shen Qianyu kept her eyes fixed on the judge as she made her request.
"Can."
Your Honor’s words are like a death sentence for some people.
