Translator: 549690339

Monday, the day of the trial.

Ji Baijian indeed didn’t provide her with any substantial evidence. The night before the trial, he called her and told her to go ahead with the not guilty defense. He said he needed some more time for finalizing some issues regarding her case and would strengthen his efforts at the time of the second trial.

She trusted Ji Baijian. She didn’t know why, but she just believed him.

Probably because he provided a sense of security in her previous life.

Just so simply, after her reincarnation, she chose him!

She quietly traveled to the court in the sedan car.

Song Zhidao, who drove the car, tried to speak up several times and then didn’t say anything because of Song Zhizhi’s silence. The car quickly stopped at the entrance of the courtroom.

As soon as they got out of the car, they were suddenly surrounded by a swarm of journalists.

With a glance from Song Zhizhi, Luo Xiaolang quickly stepped in front of her, cleared the crowd of journalists, and escorted Song Zhizhi into the court.

Because there were so many journalists, the progress of Song Zhizhi and her group was hampered.

“Miss Song, do you have anything to say about this case?” one journalist asked.

Song Zhizhi didn’t want to answer.

Because there was nothing to say.

“Miss Song, do you regret poisoning your younger sister?” “Miss Song, how long do you think you will be sentenced for?”

Song Zhizhi still did not respond.

“Miss Song, rumor has it that the Ji Family wants to call off the marriage due to your evil actions, do you have anything to say about this?”

“Miss Song, you previously said in the press conference that you had no feelings for Yi Wenhan, instead, you were interested in Ji Da Shao. Was all of that false?”

Song Zhizhi reached the entrance of the court. She could have walked in smoothly, but at this moment she suddenly stopped, turning to look at the journalist who had asked the question.

All the journalists immediately fell silent, their camera flashes ceaselessly illuminating her fair cheeks.

Song Zhizhi addressed the questioning journalist, stating word by word, “I will only say this once, listen carefully!”

Everyone was silent.

Song Zhizhi started speaking again, “I don’t like Yi Wenhan, I, love, Ji, Bai, Jian!”

She articulated carefully these last five words, her voice echoing powerfully in the hushed courtyard.

After saying that, she didn’t wait for the journalists’ reactions, she just strode into the courthouse, waiting for the trial to begin.

At 9:30, Song Zhizhi was led to the defendant’s box by the court staff. Other key personnel also took their places in the court. The plaintiff, Nie Xiaofei, took her seat, looking pale and evidently playing the victim.

At 10 0’clock, everyone rose, the Judgment Chief took the seat, and declared the beginning of the trial.

Then the plaintiff’s lawyer, Zhang Meng, got up to make a statement, “On the morning of March 29, at 9 0’clock, my client, Nie Xiaofei, suddenly suffered a massive hemorrhage causing a miscarriage. The maid in the house found abortion drugs in the house. My client immediately reported it to the police, leading to the arrest of the main culprit, Xiaoqing, who claimed the poisoning was masterminded by the defendant Song Zhizhi. Your honor, please allow me to present the witness Xiaoqing.”

“Granted,” replied the Judgment Chief.

Xiaoqing was led to the witness stand by court staff. Perhaps it was due to his long detention, but he appeared frightened and timid.

“Xiaoqing, don’t be afraid, just explain the situation clearly. But I must remind you that perjury will only increase your charges, so you better think clearly before speaking,” Zhang Meng warned.

Xiaoqing nodded vigorously, trembling as he spoke, “It was Miss Song who told me to give the abortion drugs to Miss Song’S younger sister. Miss Song even gave me a sum of money. I couldn’t resist the temptation and did as Miss Song wished, putting it in the chicken soup prepared for Miss

Song’s younger sister.”

“Are you speaking the truth?” Zhang continued to question.

“Yes,” Xiaoqing quickly replied.

“Good, you may step down now,” Zhang Meng nodded.

Xiaoqing was taken away by court staff.

Zhang Meng addressed the Judgment Chief and stated, “According to our investigation, it’s known that Song Zhizhi and my client’s fiancé, Yi Wenhan, were ambiguously involved. This act of revenge was executed out of jealousy toward my client.”

“Who can prove the ambiguous relationship between them?” the Judgment Chief asked.

“Your Honor, please allow Yi Wenhan to testify in court.”

“Granted.”

Yi Wenhan was brought to the witness stand.

After Zhang Meng said the same things to Yi Wenhan as he did to Xiaoqing, Yi Wenhan began his testimony, “I met Song Zhizhi in college. At that time, we did indeed have mutual affection, but because Song Zhizhi was already engaged, I refused her active pursuit as I did not want to be the third party. Song Zhizhi promised me that she would call off the marriage as soon as Ji Baijian returned home. However, I don’t know why she suddenly chose to date Ji Baijian, which broke my heart.”

Saying this, Yi Wenhan looked utterly sorrowful. He paused to gather his emotions before speaking again, “During that time, I was very depressed. It was Xiaofei who helped me out of the shadow of Song Zhizhi. I chose to date Xiaofei, and during a moment of passion, were it that Xiaofei got pregnant with my child. I was genuinely happy and swore to take care of Xiaofei and the child for the rest of my life. I didn’t expect… Song Zhizhi would resort to such a despicable act to get back at me!”

At this moment, Yi Wenhan looked so hurt that his eyes turned red.

There was a moment of silence in the courtroom.

Zhang Meng comforted him, “The accident is already a fact, Yi Wenhan don’t be too upset. ”

Yi Wenhan nodded and continued, “The night before the incident, Song Zhizhi caught up to me in the Song’s backyard. She said that she only agreed to marry Ji Baijian due to a planned family marriage but she didn’t actually like him. She confessed that she was still in love with me and asked me not to date Xiaofei. She couldn’t stand to see me being affectionate with another woman. Of course, I refused. I didn’t want to be Song Zhizhi’s secret lover. I couldn’t accept this morally, and more importantly, I did not want to let Xiaofei down. But I had absolutely no idea that Song Zhizhi would hurt Xiaofei in such a way.”

The more Yi Wenhan talked, the redder his eyes got.

Song Zhizhi stood in the defendant’s box, giving Yi Wenhan a cold look.

She was thinking, when the truth comes out, how satisfying it would be to see Yi Wenhan slapped in the face with his own words?!
