Li Mengqi clenched her fists, her slender nails digging deep into her palms. She tried her best to suppress the urge to beat the person in front of her up. She simply wanted to walk around him, but she didn't expect Xu Yue to suddenly step forward and block her.

"What do you want to do?" Li Mengqi angrily scolded as a trace of impatience flashed through her almond eyes.

"I was very unhappy that you ran away that night. Now that we've met today, do you think there's anything else I can do? "

Xu Yue had an evil smile on his face. He extended his hand to pick her chin, but Li Mengqi beat him down with his bag, "Impudent! Please show some respect, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Yoh, this Little Chili Pepper, I'm liking her more and more now."

The extremely perverted Xu Yue definitely wouldn't place her warning in his eyes. He suddenly approached her and was just about to rip off her collar, when at this moment, an excited female voice sounded above his head — —

"Brother, you're not allowed to bully Yi'jie!"

From upstairs, he could hear the commotion below, and Xu Hui Wei couldn't help but walk to the balcony, but he didn't expect to see his elder brother have ill intentions towards Yi'jie, so he anxiously shouted out loud.

Hearing Xu Hui's warm voice, Xu Yue was stunned for a moment. He then unwillingly retracted his hand that was hanging in the air. Before going upstairs, he left a trace of coldness in Li Mengqi's heart, "Next time, you definitely won't be able to escape from my grasp, hmph!"

After he finished speaking, he flung his sleeves and left.

Li Mengqi finally let out a sigh of relief, and when she raised her head to see Xu Huoqing looking at her apologetically, she shook her head and smiled at her, indicating that she should go in.

Xu Hui Wei bit her lips, then turned and entered the house.

A light flashed in Li Mengqi's eyes. It seemed that this Xu Yue was not that bad to Xu Hui. Sigh, this Xu Yue finally had a family member to rely on.

Thinking of the old man Xu's indifference, Li Mengqi's clear eyes instantly darkened. At this moment, she especially missed her grandfather.

As she walked, she picked up her cell phone and dialed her grandfather's number.

The phone rang three times before it was picked up. On the other end of the radio, his grandfather's loud voice could be heard, "Girl, why are you calling me at this time?"

"Grandfather, it's nothing, I just missed you."

When she heard her grandfather's voice, Li Mengqi couldn't help but choke. Even the corners of her eyes were overflowing with moisture.

"It's a red rain in the sky. That disobedient little girl in my house is actually thinking about me, an old man?"

When Old Man Li heard this, a rare faint smile appeared on his serious face.

Li Mengqi sweetly said in a spoiled manner, "All the time, I've been thinking about grandpa. "Grandfather, how have you been recently?"

"It's not bad. You, on the other hand, must seize the moment for the greater good of your life. I heard from your grandfather Zheng that day that Zheng Chi was very satisfied with you. He is a prosecutor, a lawyer with an immeasurable future.

For single juniors, this was the common disease of almost all the elderly.

"Aiya, you're always worrying about nothing."

Li Mengqi pouted and secretly rolled her eyes. She tactfully changed the topic, "What about Fan? Has the school started? "

A few days ago, he had sent Fan Fan back to B City. The little shota had been reluctant to part with him for a long time, causing Li Mengqi, who had always been tearful, to be unable to hold back and cry on the spot.

She initially didn't want to send him back so quickly, but now that school had started, she had no other choice.

"Yeah, I reported in today. "Alright, you can go and busy yourself. If you're free, go and pat her a few times. Don't wait for everyone to marry their wife, just stay here alone."

The old man hung up with a click.

Li Mengqi pursed her lips and silently sighed. She was always afraid of being bitten by a snake. Right now, she only wanted to find a place to lick her wound. How could she be in the mood to date?

Sigh, forget it. The case of Little Warm was still more important.

Time flew by, and very soon, Xu Hui's trial would begin.

Li Mengqi took a leave of absence and rushed to the court early in the morning. At the door, she ran into Zheng Jie, who was carrying a thick stack of documents.

"Yuanyi, you're here so early?"

When Zheng saw her, his handsome face naturally broke out into a smile. He greeted her in a friendly manner.

"Yeah, I'm a bit worried, so I wanted to come early to take a look." Zheng, is the odds of a case winning? "

For some reason, a bad premonition seemed to flash through her heart.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

Zheng nodded confidently.

"Thanks for the test." When the case is over, I'll buy you dinner and thank you. "

Li Mengqi said sincerely.

"It's rare for a beauty to request an invitation, how could I refuse?"

"Hehe …"

His humor made Li Mengqi unable to stop herself from giggling. Her curvy face was reflected in the eyes of someone not too far away, and they inexplicably felt it was dazzling.

"Boss, are we going in?"

Zhang Chi couldn't help but sigh inwardly as he saw his boss' face tense up, and his whole body was filled with an aloof attitude.

Ever since the incident with Young Master Shen, it didn't seem like I saw the BOSS's eyebrows relax. The entire Fenghua Corporation sank into a haze and lost all signs of joy.

Zhang Chi originally thought that Boss was only like this because of Young Master Shen. But today, it seems like the biggest reason was still because of Leader Li.

Sigh, the word love is indeed a terrifying thing.

Qi Junhao didn't pay any attention to Zhang Chi. He slowly lit a cigarette and took a deep drag from it. Smoke curled up around him, and his deep charming eyes shone with a mysterious light.

Only after seeing the man and woman walking in happily did he put out the cigarette and gracefully threw it into the trash can beside him. He straightened the custom-made black coat on his body, pursed his lips and finally burst out a word after a long time: "Let's go!"

Li Mengqi followed Zheng into the courtroom and found that it was already packed with people.

"There's a place to sit. Go and take a seat, I'll go and get busy."

Zheng's sharp eyes found a vacant seat for her. Seeing that it was about time for the court session, he quickly returned to the master's seat and started preparing the documents for the court with his assistant.

After sitting down, Li Mengqi consciously muted her cell phone and raised her head. At that moment, the door was pushed open, and a tall figure was brought up by two bailiffs. It was none other than the defendant in the case, Bank of Shen.

At this point in time, money official Shen was no longer as high-spirited as before. Instead, he was filled with an irresistible sense of desolation and despondency.

Li Mengqi watched with mixed emotions. She did not hate money officer Shen, she even treated him as a friend at one time, but who would have thought that he would do something so inconsequential. If the other women did not do it, how could they have gotten into trouble with Xu Hui Wai?

Whenever she thought of the injuries to Xu Hui, she could not suppress the anger in her heart, and could not forgive the money manager.

The door was pushed open again. It was Qi Junhao. Behind him walked a middle-aged man in his forties. Li Mengqi had seen him on the law program before. He was the famous gold medal lawyer, Shao Xiadong.

Rumor has it that this lawyer Shao did not lose his case. Presumably, this time, it would be a fight to the death. The bad premonition in Li Mengqi's heart became even more intense at this moment.

As she thought of this, she subconsciously glanced at them. He saw Shao Xiadong whisper something into his ear. Qi Junhao nodded slightly and quickly brought Zhang Chi to the furthest corner to find a seat.

Li Mengqi's gaze couldn't help but fall on him until the arrival of the judge, when everyone stood up solemnly. Only then did she get distracted and curse herself in her heart.

The trial officially began.

"On the 11th of the same month, the plaintiff in this case, Xu Hui, went to participate in a famous person party hosted by the Cloud Sky Sect. She was forcefully annihilated in the process, and the perpetrator was precisely the accused …"

Zheng's performance, full of tension, gems, provided evidence, very unfavorable to the bank manager.

Li Mengqi nervously clenched her fists, and unconsciously glanced at Qi Junhao, only to discover that his handsome face was completely calm, as if everything was under his control.

He shouldn't be plotting anything, right?

Li Mengqi didn't know why, but she started to feel increasingly uneasy.

After a war of words, the judge nodded his head repeatedly, which gradually made Li Mengqi feel more at ease. The interrogation was about to come to an end, perhaps she could be convicted?

Who knew that …

"Your Honor, please approve. I have something I need to confirm with the plaintiff."

At this moment, Shao suddenly stood up and bowed towards the judge.

"Approval."

The judge nodded and agreed.

"Xu Hui, please answer truthfully. What is your relationship with the defendant?"

Shao Xia and Dong Rui stared at her with a cold expression.

"I have nothing to do with him, I just know him!"

Xu Hui Wai looked at him fearlessly, spitting out words with clarity.

"Then what's your purpose for going to the celebrity banquet that day?"

"I …"

Xu Huihan was momentarily at a loss for words, and then stopped.

Purpose...

Her goal was to draw a map so that they could more easily grasp the situation of the Cloud Sky Club. However, she absolutely could not say this out in court.

"Tell me, what is your purpose?"

Shao Xia and Dong were becoming more and more overbearing.

"I …"

What should she do, how should she answer?

Xu Huoyou was scared by him, and in that instant, he started to panic a little.

Upon seeing this, Shao Xia Dong's eyes flashed. He took advantage of the opportunity and pursued, "Let me answer for you. You were simply plotting to get close to my client, right?"

"No, I don't!"

Xu Huoqing hurriedly shook his head. His large eyes were currently filled with grievance.

Would she go close to that scum?

How is this possible!?

"No?" The banquet is on the second floor, why did you go to the fifth floor? The surveillance showed that you followed my client into the room. Is that true? "

"I —"

It was indeed like that, but …

Xu Hui Wei suddenly felt powerless. She wanted to retort, but she didn't know how to begin. It was all her fault for being too nosy. If she hadn't followed him, wouldn't he have …

Whenever she thought of that terrifying night, a layer of fear would unconsciously appear on her pale little face. However, when it reflected in others' eyes, it was very natural to assume that she was feeling guilty.

"That day, my client was drugged and lost his mind, which is why he had a relationship with you. And you are the one who drugged it! "

No, I'm not! "Ah!

She didn't think that the other party would actually slander her. Xu Hui could not bear the stimulation and involuntarily cried out, her emotions spiraling out of control.

"Objection!" The opposing party, without any substantial evidence, makes an arbitrary conjecture. "

Seeing this, Zheng Chi hurriedly retorted.

On the other hand, the bailiff who was beside Xu Hui, hurriedly held her down, allowing her to gradually return to normal.

"The objection is valid! The defence attorney is requested to pay attention to the words and bring up more constructive questions. "

The judge's authoritative voice rang out, Shao Xiadong nodded his head and stopped thinking about it.

"Xu Hui Wei, you actually have a * * relationship with my client, right?"

"No, you're lying, you're lying!"

This time, Xu Hui Wei finally saw how right and wrong were reversed, as she anxiously stared with wide eyes.

"Your Honor, I have a piece of information with me that fully proves that the plaintiff and my client have a deep relationship."

After Shao Xiadong finished speaking, he handed over a document with both hands.

"According to my information, since three years ago, Xu Hui's bank account would be deposited with a monthly deposit of one hundred thousand yuan. And the deposit would be made by my client, Money Officer Shen."

Walla ~ ~ ~

When these words were spoken, the entire audience burst into an uproar.

In the audience, Li Mengqi's delicate face instantly paled, and a trace of disbelief flashed through her almond eyes.

How is this possible?

She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Qi Junhao, just in time to meet his gaze. A complex light flashed across that man's eyes, causing her heart to tremble. In that split-second, she seemed to understand something.

What a good 'Qi Junhao'!

I didn't expect him to be so despicable and shameless!

Li Mengqi bit her lips, her slender nails digging into her flesh. The pain was far less than the one in ten thousand that she felt in her heart.

The person she fell in love with was actually such a terrifying man …

As for Xu Hui, she was also at a loss. She did not know anything about the sudden evidence and could not help but panic.

"Excuse me, Miss Xu Hui, but if you don't know my client, how could he, every month for the past three years, save a large amount of money for you?"

"I don't know, I don't know--"

She subconsciously shook her head as a thought inexplicably flashed through her mind. Could it be …

No, impossible!

How could it be such a damned coincidence?

"You don't know? You're lying, Your Honor. Just a month before this case, my client ended up with a hundred thousand dollars, and that's the end of their relationship. "The plaintiff didn't want to end this relationship, so he searched around for an opportunity to get close to my client. If the temptation failed, he would drug him and falsely accuse him of rape …"

The people in the court were suddenly in a state of chaos. Their complicated gazes uniformly looked at Xu Huiqing. Some questioned him, some despised him, as if everyone was leaning towards the defendant and were discussing him in private.

"Nonsense, I didn't —"

At this time, Xu Huoqing was like an injured kitten, panicking. Tears of grievance dripped from her eyes, causing Li Mengqi's heart to hurt, and she also completely gave up on Jun Hao.

A hint of suspicion flashed across Zheng's handsome face. Of course, he believed in Xu Hui. This girl looked very innocent, not like the kind of person who knew how to scheme.

However, why did the defense suddenly bring up such evidence? It was likely that there was something more to the matter.

Thinking of this, he adjusted the glasses on his nose, stood up, and bowed to the judge. "Your Honor, in view of the plaintiff's unstable mood, please approve the adjournment of the court for 15 minutes."

"Approval. The hearing will start in fifteen minutes. "

In the lounge.

"Xu Hui Wei, tell me honestly, what's going on?"

Zheng sat opposite to Xu Hui, his expression extremely serious, even his tone became hasty.

"Zheng Jing, you have to believe me, I really —"

Xu Hui Wei wanted to explain urgently, but she was interrupted by Zheng Chi, "Of course I believe you, but how did they get the bank records? Those have already been verified, they really do exist! "If you are unable to explain, I'm afraid this lawsuit …"

"I'm sorry, Zheng Jing, please forgive me for not being able to tell him, but I really don't have that kind of relationship with him!"

Xu Hui smiled desolately, bit her lips, but did not want to explain any further.

If this was the arrangement of fate, then she had no way of talking about it.

Zheng sighed and left the lounge. As soon as he went out, he met Li Mengqi.

"How is she?"

Li Mengqi's eyes were filled with concern.

Zheng shook his head, a look of helplessness flitted across his handsome face. "If she doesn't want to tell me the truth, I can't help her. You are someone she trusts. Maybe you should talk to her and see if she is willing to speak. "

"Alright!"

Li Mengqi answered with a heavy voice and pushed the door open.

At this moment, Xu Huoqing's expression was wooden, as he was powerlessly curled up on a chair, his small body was trembling. With just a glance, he had hurt Li Mengqi's heart.

She lightly walked over and stood behind Xu Huoqing. Hugging her in her arms, she gently asked, "Cheer up. If you have a clear conscience and tell the truth to the judge, the judge will definitely handle this matter impartially."

Yi jie, I can't say, I really can't say, wuu —

Xu Hui's tone suddenly became choked with sobs. Tears that were as big as beans fell down and covered her delicate face.

Li Mengqi took out a tissue and wiped her face before sighing, "What's the reason? Why can't you tell me?"

"I told you, you have to keep it a secret!"

After leaving the lounge, Li Mengqi's mood became heavier and heavier. Her two beautiful eyebrows were twisted together, unable to calm down for a long time.

She hadn't thought that they would actually...

How shameless!

Fifteen minutes of rest passed quickly.

When he returned to the court, without any suspense, Xu Hui - wai was unable to explain the matter of the large amount of funds, and the judge only looked at the evidence. In the end, he was acquitted and released in court.

Xu Hui Qing cried on the spot, but as for Li Mengqi, she could only hug him and let the tears of the person in her arms wet her clothes.

Her raised eyelashes blinked a few times. Her eyes suddenly turned astringent and tears began to flow from them as well.

Seeing this, Zheng Chi's mood became even more complicated. He apologized to them in a low voice and left.

After a long time, seeing that the two of them were the only ones left in the court, Li Mengqi patted Xu Hui's shoulder and said, "Let's go, Yi'jie will take you home!"

At this time, Xu Huoqing had long since lost the strength to speak, so he could only let Li Mengqi carry her weak body and leave.

As soon as he stepped out of the courtroom, he met Xu Yue, who had come to visit his sister.

Seeing that Xu Hui's mental state was so poor, Xu Yue's brows tightly knitted together. After swearing at money manager Shen, he took Xu Hui from Li Mengqi's arms and held him.

"Mr. Li, although I like you a lot, I will not force you since you treat my sister so well."

It was rare for the usually arrogant Xu Yue to say such pretentious words, but Li Mengqi was somewhat surprised.

But the absence of a plague god was still a good thing, so she nodded lightly and said goodbye to them before walking out of the courthouse.

With an extremely bad mood, she simply took a taxi to the beach. Unexpectedly, she met an acquaintance there.
