Chapter 309 Small matter
Zi Shan received a call from her father and realized that Li Rongxuan’s case is finally going to court, speaking of which it’s strange to be able to drag it out until now Zi Shan thought it was because Hao Shufen really had heavenly skills, but in the end it’s still going to be a court case, so it should be that there’s something the police or the prosecutor needs to investigate, right? Otherwise it couldn’t drag on for so long.
“Dad, what else do you have to say?” She looked at the document as if she asked casually, in fact, the intention of Li Yaowu’s phone call is what she understands the most, if she can understand Li Rongxuan, then Li Rongxuan’s crime will be lighter, or as Hao Shufen or Li Yaowu thought, let her go and make a perjury saying that she was careless and the injury has nothing to do with Li Rongxuan, then Li Rongxuan will most likely be acquitted.
But Zixan wouldn’t do that. Li Rongxuan had evolved from hitting someone to daring to hurt someone with a knife, this matter was no longer a fight between family members – since he dared to do it then he should suffer the consequences. Stop saying that Li Rongxuan is her brother, if Li Rongxuan had treated her as his sister, then the knife would not have hurt her.
After nine deaths she saw the baby, the thought of the possibility of just dying leaving the baby alone, alone, and retracing her childhood path, her heart is a burst of fear, therefore, Li Rongxuan must pay the price. Only when people know that they must be responsible for doing the wrong thing, can they think twice before doing something, if the price of making a mistake is too small, it will only make people commit the forbidden again and again.
Already can not remember how long did not talk to Li Yao Xu, and the New Year’s Day she did not go over to Li Yao Xu to pay tribute to the New Year, there are some things she is really can not see and can not let go, see each other is better than not see the good, lest the father and daughter of the two big New Year’s Day and then argued.
Li Yao Xu sighed: “You are still angry with Dad?”
Zi Shan glanced at the phone as if she could see her father on the other end of the line before she gently shook her head again, “What’s the point of talking about that. Dad if you don’t have anything I’ll hang up, there are a lot of people waiting for me here, it’s just too busy.” She really didn’t want to say anything more to Li Yao Xu, so what if she said harsh words, that in the end was her own father, no matter what, he also let her grow up and receive an education.
Saying harsh words is just a pain in the mouth, she knows deep in her heart that she can’t do it, and why should she make Li Yaowu, who is already all sick, angry again? Saying one less sentence would be considered as letting herself go, so she wanted to close the line not wanting to say any more on the matter of Li Rongxuan, and really didn’t want Li Yaowu to open his mouth to plead for mercy for Li Rongxuan again.
“And, Dad, you know, I can’t do it. Please remember again that I’m also your own daughter.” She couldn’t help but speak her heartfelt words after Lee Yeo Wook was silent for a while without answering, “I don’t want to beg you to treat me as other people’s fathers, I don’t beg you to treat me half as good as Lee Rong Xuan and Lee Rong Qi, I just beg you to have mercy and stop sacrificing me for the sake of Lee Rong Xuan and the rest of them, I’m also a human being, living and breathing, and my heart will hurt too. ”
Li Yao Xu finally spoke, “I’m sorry, Zi Shan.” He sighed long, “I, am not looking for you to plead for Rongxuan, although I really don’t want him to go to jail, in the end he is my son, but you are also my daughter, so many years would have been sorry for you, how can I still ask you to condescend yourself for Rongxuan? Rongxuan, should also get some lessons.”
“I called just to hear your voice, since the last time I’ve been wanting to call you, but I really don’t know what I should say, and I don’t know if you’ll pick up my call, today is kind of an excuse to find an excuse, but also because I’m really in a bad mood, suddenly I just want to hear your voice.”
He sighed again, “I know what you went through after New Year’s, but in the end, you came through safely, so I’m quite relieved, Zisan, take care of yourself as well as the child, Dad–, there’s nothing going on, I just want to hear you talk. That hospital’s review is done? I heard that it is necessary to do nine times of review, how many times has it been done now? Everything is fine?”
Zixan was silent for a while, “All good. You, how’s your body, how’s the rehab going?” Too raw and too polite, but it’s better than father and daughter angrily facing each other, even if it’s more raw, don’t argue anymore, Zi Shan is really tired. It’s fine to have a father without a father, just pray that he won’t ask himself to do something he doesn’t want or can’t do anymore.
“Good, I’m all good, now I can already stand up and walk a few steps on crutches, the doctor said I’m recovering well, as long as I continue to insist it’s not impossible to walk, it’s just that it takes time.” Li Yao Xu said two sentences and then paused: “Tomorrow, in the District Court.”
Zi Shan replied softly, “You go in and out and take care of yourself.” Won’t go and tell lies for Li Rongxuan to get off the hook, but she also doesn’t have to go and watch Li Rongxuan’s trial process, things will end up with the law giving her a fair, seeing or not seeing is the same result, why bother wasting that time?
She has things to be busy, really do not have that effort, and she also do not want to face Li Yao Xu, and do not want to give Hao Shufen crazy splash abuse her opportunity, not afraid, is really not that necessary.
Li Yaoxu answered and silent for a while to urge the purple Shan a few words on the phone hung up.
Zi Shan does not know whether he finally did not put the pleading words out, or he called just to say – said, in fact, also hold hope, right? But hope for her what? Wouldn’t think that after a little bit of time she would just fade away, right? It was her life, almost died in the hands of Li Rongxuan, how could she possibly fade away.
After putting down the phone, she concentrated on doing things, and was not disturbed by Li Rongxuan’s things, Chu Xiang and Xue Jing look at her appearance also put down the heart did not say a word, but it is Anping said: “To open the court, it is reasonable to say that you the subject should know, how come no one notified you?”
Zi Shan didn’t take it to heart, “He’s a criminal case, not a civil case, what do you want me to know?”
Anping glared, “The public prosecutor is going to bring charges, but you are an important witness in this case.” She saw the consternation of Zi Shan looking up, “Although I don’t take criminal cases but I’m a lawyer, if you don’t believe it, just call and ask Jiang Tao, it’s true that there is a difference but no humanity, nowadays, even I, a special lawyer, don’t believe in it.”
Chu Xiang looked at the statement without lifting her head, “Agree with your sentence, there is heterosexuality without humanity. However, why didn’t anyone notify Zi Shan, is it Anping that you got confused? Maybe it’s not necessary for Zishan to go – it’s better not to go, it’s even more disturbing to go, I don’t feel comfortable letting Zishan go alone, if she really wants to go I’m definitely going to follow.”
Xiao Jing tilted her head to look at Zi Shan, “There is nothing wrong with having a different nature but no humanity. But Anping has a point, I think I heard my dad say that the victim is an important witness and must appear in court.”
Zi Shan glared at the three of them, “You guys just have bad mouths, let’s see the day you fall into my hands.” She called out as she spoke, “Why wasn’t I notified if I was to appear in court? I should have been prepared, right – the testimonies and stuff are actually with the police, so there’s nothing if I don’t go, right?”
The three Anping people looked at her together, “Calling ah, do you want us to avoid going out ah, lest we get in the way and eyesore ah.”
Zi Shan glared at them again when Jiang Tao’s voice came over, “Zi Shan, I’ll pick you up for lunch at noon, there’s a new one opening on the east side ……” The voice wasn’t too small, at least An Ping sitting beside her heard it clearly, learning Jiang Tao’s words word for word, learning them word for word. Lured Chu Xiang and so-and-so Jing to keep on coaxing.
“Promise or not promise it, really difficult ah, do not promise it, the heart does not want to say also seems to be a thief is not? If you say yes, you’ll be made fun of all the same.” Xue Jing learned Zi Shan’s tone of voice, attracting An Ping and Chu Xiang to lie on the table laughing.
“Fine, come pick me up at noon.” Zi Shan raised her chin defiantly, “Sis will promise, you guys laugh laugh laugh, sis and Jiang Tao are just ……”
“Ordinary friends Well, you do not emphasize again and again, there is a saying that the more you describe it, the darker it gets you know?” Three people in unison refuted Zi Shan, Zi Shan’s face a little red but still do not forget to glare at them again.
Jiang Tao heard An Ping and the others laughing: “Joking again doesn’t make you tired.” But there was nothing to be upset about, “Okay, it’s a deal.”
Zi Shan threw her pen over before the three An Ping people stopped making noise, “Li Rongxuan’s case is going to trial, shouldn’t I be notified?”
Jiang Tao was even more surprised, “Of course, didn’t you get notified? I didn’t know his case was going to trial either – I know, it’s broken!” He seemed to have knocked over something over there and heard a messy ringing sound.
Zi Shan’s face also changed slightly, “What’s wrong with you?” Her concern was not about Li Rongxuan’s case, after Jiang Tao lost his voice and exclaimed in shock what she thought of instead was that something had happened to Jiang Tao.
“It’s not me, I’m fine, it’s just that the water spilled.” Jiang Tao said anxiously, “At that time, that case was handled by Lin Hao, at that time he was your commissioned lawyer, and then this case has been under investigation, and no one has ever bothered you, and there are all sorts of things, especially when you are so sick, we have forgotten an important thing …… ”
Anping exclaimed when he heard this, “Lin Hao is still Zi Shan’s retained attorney in that case! Man, how could we have forgotten, how could we have forgotten!” She gave herself a heavy smack, “Two lawyers who are friends of Zi Shan made such a serious mistake.”
She closed the file with a snap and grabbed the phone from Zi Shan’s hand, “Jiang Tao, I’ll come to you right away, we’ll go to see Lin Hao together – surely the court notified him, but he didn’t call Zi Shan! , we’re going to have to disbar him as a plenipotentiary attorney before court.”
When Lin Hao and Zi Shan broke up, Zi Shan’s body had just gotten better and still needed to recuperate, and at that time, they met with the Taste of Love accident, and they had been busy until now, they had really neglected it – at that time, it was really just a small thing, but now it was no longer a small thing.
