Today was the day Ye Chaxu's case would be heard.

Early in the morning, Gu Shen brought Ye Chaxu into the court.

Arriving at the entrance of the court, Ye Chaxu saw Li Shuqi.

Li Shuqi saw Ye Chaxu and walked over to her with a smile: "Tashi." He glanced at Gu Shen and forced a smile, "Director Gu."

Gu Shen did not care about Li Shuqi, because this person was his love rival.

Li Shuqi ignored Gu Shen's cold and detached attitude. He did not like Gu Shen either, since the only person he cared about was Ye Chaxu.

Ye Chaxu felt the awkward atmosphere between the two, so he looked towards Gu Shen and spoke: "Gu Shen, can you wait for me at the side for a bit? I have something to say to Li Shuqi. "

Gu Shen frowned. Why would he go aside if he was unhappy?

"Please!" Ye Chaxu laughed gently, with a pleading look in his eyes.

Seeing that, Gu Shen nodded his head and walked to the side.

Ye Chaxu looked at Li Shuqi and gave a bland smile, "Bookflag, you actually didn't come today."

"Your case is about to begin, how can I not attend?" Li Shuqi said while smiling, his heart was very worried about Ye Chaxu's situation, because up until now, he had not found out the truth of the matter.

The corner of Ye Chaxu's mouth lifted slightly, and said indifferently: "It's fine, no matter what the result, I'll accept it." She had already made up her mind for the worst. No matter what the result would be, she would accept it.

Hearing that, Li Shuqi frowned: "No, I will definitely find out who the culprit is and return your innocence."

No matter what the outcome is, I do not wish for you to pay too much for me, because I will not be able to afford to pay it back, because in my heart, there is Gu Shen, not you. Even if you treat me as a friend, and I only have the friendship of a friend, the better you treat me, the more guilty I feel in my heart, and I even feel that I owe you. Ye Chaxu's words were filled with helplessness, as well as a cruel compromise to fate.

Li Shuqi did not like hearing these words, so he said angrily: "These words are meaningless, I will make my own decision." With that, he walked into the court.

Gu Shen saw Li Shuqi leaving angrily, and walked towards Ye Chaxu, and asked puzzledly: "What did you say to him, it seems like you are angry?" He actually wanted to know what secret she told Li Shuqi after shooing him away.

"I just rejected his good intentions. If you were here and heard me reject him, he would only feel even more embarrassed. For the sake of a man's face, I'll let you avoid him." Ye Chaxu explained, not wanting Gu Shen to misunderstand anything.

Gu Shen understood after hearing it.

He embraced Ye Chaxu's shoulders and laughed: "You! If you want to refuse, you should have done so earlier. If you reject him now, I'm afraid that he will think that I was the one who instructed you to do so.

"It can't be?" Ye Chaxu frowned, his eyes filled with worry.

Gu Shen shrugged and looked at her: "I don't know, let's go, it's about to start." Then, she carried Ye Chaxu into the court.

As the accused and a criminal, Ye Chaxu was brought away by the police and separated from Gu Shen.

An hour later, the trial officially began.

Ye Chaxu was brought out by the police and stood in front of the accused.

Gu Yuan became the plaintiff, because the person who died was the Grandmother Gu, he was the son of the Grandmother Gu, although the case was reported by the young lad, in the end Gu Yuan also reported it, so Gu Yuan represented the plaintiff and Ye Chaxu to face the court.

When Ye Chaxu saw that the plaintiff was Gu Yuan, his face was covered in cold sweat.

To think that, as a daughter-in-law, she would be in a hostile situation with her father-in-law. This was too funny.

But there was no other way, Gu Yuan didn't like her and recognized her as the murderer, so the relationship between her and Gu Yuan would become even more complicated.

Gu Yuan would also not easily forgive her, but because of the ruckus between Gu Yuan and her, the relationship between father and son would only become worse in the future.

Gu Shen was rather calm, he had long known that Gu Yuan was the plaintiff.

It was a good thing that this case would be kept a secret. Otherwise, if people found out that their family was quarreling against each other, they would laugh at the Gu family.

Gu Yuan's lawyer was called Zhou Qin, he was also very famous in A City and had handled many criminal cases.

Lawyer Zhou recited all of Ye Chaxu's crimes in the court, and even called out the young lad who reported the case to testify.

Through the lawyer's question, Ye Chaxu found out that this fellow's name was Ah Zhou, and was a resident that lived near the crime scene.

Ah Zhou told the presiding judge everything that he saw at the scene of the crime and even testified that Ye Chaxu was the murderer.

Faced with all the accusations from the A'Yue, lawyer Zhu stood up and explained. From every aspect, he analyzed and vilified that Ye Chaxu was not the murderer, and even called out Ning Xin, the witness.

Ning Xin also told the presiding judge everything that happened that day.

After Lawyer Zhou heard Ning Xin's testimony, he tried to force the question, "Miss Ning, you said that you were scared senseless, right?"

Ning Xin nodded and looked at Lawyer Zhou with a serious expression.

"Since that's the case, how can you be so sure that Ye Chaxu did not use his blade to kill while you were unconscious?" Lawyer Zhou asked, his eyes filled with a sharp and cold light, closing in on Ning Xin.

"I …" Ning Xin was stunned, she was indeed unconscious, and did not see what happened afterwards, but it was true that the driver used his blade to force them, so she said: "Although I did not see, but that driver really did use his blade to force us, as long as we call out the recording device on the car, it would prove that what I said was true, Ye Chaxu was really not the murderer."

"Ha!" This is only a one-sided statement and your testimony is yet to be examined. " Lawyer Zhou laughed coldly, looking at Ning Xin with disdain, "You are a good friend of Miss Ye, maybe you are just trying to help your friend and trying to lie?!"

"I object." Lawyer Zhu raised his opinion and looked at the presiding judge. "The other party is insulting my witness."

"The objection is valid." The presiding judge said with an expressionless face.

Hearing this, Lawyer Zhou looked at Lawyer Zhu and raised his doubts and points of view.

Lawyer Zhu refused to back down as he tried his best to dismantle Lawyer Zhou's words.

Ye Chaxu listened to both sides arguing with each other.

Encountering a criminal case, it was indeed a headache, it was very troublesome.

The testimony of both sides were clear. Of course, one part was sure that Ye Chaxu was guilty, and the other part was trying hard to get revenge for her.

After arguing for a while, Lawyer Zhou suddenly took out a document, "This is a fingerprint identification. The deceased's body and the handle of the blade all have Ye Chaxu's fingerprint, which is enough to prove that Ye Chaxu is the killer."

"Ye Chaxu was always together with Old Madam Gu that day. Their bodies were intimately touching, so it's normal for them to have fingerprints on them. Furthermore, since Ye Chaxu was able to send Old Granny Gu to the hospital, it is normal for him to grasp the hilt of his blade during the journey. Mr. Zhu retorted with a serious expression.
