My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

After Yi Wenhan\'s statement, the plaintiff\'s lawyer, Zhang Meng, asked, "Does Mr. Yi have any evidence to support his claims?"

"Yes," replied Yi Wenhan swiftly, "Everyone in the student union knew about my relationship with Song Zhizhi back in university, there are photos. I\'ve also invited classmates from the student union to testify, and I have a video of Song Zhizhi kissing me voluntarily that night."

"Excellent, please present your evidence," asked Zhang Meng.

Yi Wenhan produced multiple intimate photos of him and Song Zhizhi from their university days, as well as the video of their kiss that night. In addition, he called on a classmate to testify, confirming their relationship.

All these arguments, along with credible testimonies and physical evidence, left Song Zhizhi speechless, and her crime was clear.

Zhang Meng submitted all the evidence to the bench and respectfully said to the Judgment Chief, "I have finished my statement. I ask Your Honor to proceed with the judgment."

The Judgment Chief nodded and asked the defendant, "Does the defendant have anything to say?"

"Yes," Wen Tian stood up from his seat, respectfully addressing the Judgment Chief, "I will plead not guilty for my client, Song Zhizhi."

At these words, everyone in the courtroom was shocked beyond belief.

Nie Xiaofei, who had been sitting in the gallery, momentarily showed a slight change in expression before regaining her composure.

Song Shan didn\'t attend, knowing that many reporters would be pursuing him. He wouldn\'t appear at such a time. Song Zhidao and Luo Xiaolang were waiting for her in the gallery.

In the courtroom, Wen Tian spoke again, "My client is innocent of the accusation of harming Nie Xiaofei. The plaintiff\'s claims are all speculations, rapacious conjectures about my client\'s motives to induce a miscarriage of Nie Xiaofei, and conjecturing that my client is still in love with Yi Wenhan. Everything is conjecture!"

"Objection!" Zhang Meng jumped up from his seat with agitation. "Your Honor, the defendant\'s crime is conspicuous, not based on conjecture. We have both human and material evidence; I would like to ask counsel, where is your conjecture coming from?"

Wen Tian was slightly faltering under the intense pressure from his senior attorney, he was trying to control his emotions, for a newcomer, opportunities to exercise in court were already scarce, and the current situation made him somewhat weak.

He held firm, staring straight at Zhang Meng, "May I ask, what exactly is your \'material evidence\'? All I see here is human testimonies."

Zhang Meng\'s gaze tightened, his harsh stare was clearly against Wen Tian. He was an ace attorney in Jin City. His reputation was well-known in the legal field, this novice attorney dared to jeopardize his future career, didn\'t he?

Zhang Meng said, "Counselor Wen, the stack of RMB that Xiaoqing had is the material evidence. Given our knowledge of Xiaoqing\'s income and her family background, it is impossible for her to have such a large amount of money."

"But it can\'t be proven that it was given by my client."

"Who do you think gave it?"

"It could be anyone else! You speculate that my client likes Yi Wenhan, in fact, Nie Xiaofei also likes my client\'s fiancé Ji Baijian, so why can\'t I speculate that Nie Xiaofei deliberately framed my client to revenge her loss of Ji to my client? This money may also be from Nie Xiaofei!" Wen Tian argued, word for word.

Zhang Meng sneered, his face full of disdain. Before he spoke again, he heard Nie Xiaofei\'s crying voice, "How could you say that? Do you know how sad I am to lose my child? If you do not cherish a life, at least don\'t falsely accuse me?!"

Wen Tian blushed at Nie Xiaofei\'s accusation.

All new attorneys would face this situation, not being able to control the situation. Song Zhizhi had anticipated this, but at the moment, it was not important. No matter what, they had no effective evidence to prove her innocence, it was not unfounded that Wen Tian\'s confidence was lacking.

Nie Xiaofei continued to cry, "What you said about me liking my sister\'s fiancé Ji Baijian, how could that be possible? Everyone knows Ji Baijian is crippled after the car accident, even if I was desperate I wouldn\'t love such a man. Saying that I like him is just out of the desire to be wed to the Ji Family on my sister\'s behalf when she said that my status wasn\'t enough and that I wasn\'t qualified..."

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became. It was as if everyone in the world had wronged her, she cried till she was breathless.

Zhang Meng comforted her with a few words.

The Judgment Chief couldn\'t help but say, "The plaintiff needs to control her emotions."

Nie Xiaofei nodded tearfully.

After she had calmed down a bit, Zhang Meng then said to Wen Tian, "Counselor Wen, you are new to the legal profession and apparently your knowledge of the law is insufficient! How could you ramble on with such unfounded assumptions? Don\'t forget our lawyer\'s code of conduct, you don\'t want to gain a bad reputation in this field."

Wen Tian\'s throat tightened, "I\'m just stating my hypothesis."

Zhang Meng sneered and didn\'t bother with Wen Tian anymore.

He turned to the Judgment Chief and said in a respectful tone, "Your Honor, I strongly suspect that the defendant\'s attorney is spouting nonsense without evidence or basis, purely to disrupt court order and influence your and the court\'s decision. I ask for your wise judgment."

The Judgment Chief nodded, showing no response to Wen Tian\'s statement. He sternly said, "The defense should watch their words. If there is no concrete evidence proving that this case is irrelevant to the defendant, do not cause a stir in the courtroom."

Wen Tian looked back at Song Zhizhi who nodded.

Wen Tian addressed the Judgment Chief, "Yes, Your Honor."

"Do you have anything else to say?"

"Nothing else, Your Honor." Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

"Does the plaintiff have anything to add?" the Judgment Chief asked.

"No."

The Judgment Chief announced, "I ask the members of the court to proceed with their deliberation on this case. All other members, please wait."

The Judgment Chief and the court retired.

The courtroom was silent, maintaining a quiet atmosphere.

Song Zhizhi turned to look at Nie Xiaofei in the gallery. Her eyes gleamed with smugness, even though she was trying to hide it.

It was evident that she was weakened in the legal defense.
