Chapter 335 – Any objections?
Zi Shan didn’t see Li Yao Xu’s finger move, so seeing Hao Shufen’s wretched appearance was a bit baffling – she was scared by herself? If she could scare Hao Shufen just by saying something, she wouldn’t have to be bullied by Hao Shufen for so long. Subconsciously, she looked at Jiang Tao, and at the same time, she remembered what Jiang Tao said about “ghosts scaring people” on the way here.
The problem is that Jiang Tao did not do anything, Hao Shufen ran away on her own ah, she really do not understand, but Hao Shufen gone is a good thing, and now she is sad in the curiosity is not so big, so after a glance at Jiang Tao she retracted her gaze did not open the mouth to ask what, and Sun big sister said that the spirit of the hall layout of the matter, go to eat something by the way to do some court preparations – – Although the time is too tight, the time is too tight. -Although the time is too tight, but the practice of sharpening the spear is better than not sharpening it.
Jiang Tao knew Zi Shan wouldn’t ask when she retracted her gaze and inclined her head, “She was startled because Uncle Li’s finger moved.” Seeing Zi Shan’s surprised gaze, he gently pressed her shoulder, “That’s exactly what I’m going to talk to you about, there may be some surprising movements after a person dies, that’s all natural, and just now that was of course because I’ve been on the phone with Big Sister Sun – the people who work as lawyers, as well as funeral parlors will always know something about it, and that’s enough for now.”
He accompanied Zi Shan towards Big Sister Sun: “I think Hao Shufen will not come back to seek your trouble, these days you are busy but also do not have to deal with them, and do not be too sad, how to persuade others can not persuade your heart, the main thing is to persuade yourself.”
Zishan nodded: “I know.” She didn’t ask Jiang Tao and Big Sister Sun how they made his father’s finger move, because she believed that the two of them wouldn’t do anything that would make her unacceptable or sad.
Jiang Tao took Zi Shan to leave the funeral parlor: “I know you don’t have an appetite right now ……”
“I can’t eat to go, but the body is important I know, well, go drink some congee, I think now is the most appropriate, right? Too forced to eat something is not necessarily good for the body, drink some congee for good digestion.” Zi Shan shook her head, “No need to persuade me, I know what to do, I still have a daughter.”
Jiang Tao did not persuade Zi Shan, heard her say so few words finally really let go of the heart, rational Zi Shan is not to worry about, she will take care of themselves and the people around them. But to divert Zi Shan’s attention, at the same time he also because of the matter at hand thought of a lot of things, suddenly for many years did not mention a word to people is to want to talk about.
“Many years ago, I clearly remember it was an afternoon in the second semester of the second year of junior high school, during the golden autumn season, the oranges sold on the streets were so fresh, I was thinking of asking my mom to buy some,” his voice was quiet, so calm that it was as if he was telling a story, “but the teacher notified me in the second period class that afternoon to home that my mom was sick.”
“When I got home my mom looked fine, there was nothing wrong with her, and there were a few people sitting in the house, one of them was dressed inconspicuously and sitting in a corner, but I saw her right away, my mom had entrusted me to that woman, and she died that night after being resuscitated, she had been sick for a long time. And the woman who was dressed looking average but attention grabbing was my biological father’s wife, that was the first time I saw her.”
Zi Shan’s attention was really attracted, listening to Jiang Tao’s calm tone, but felt a deep pain in his heart – the pain of losing his mother was extremely heavy for him, right, but in that situation he was still half a child, how could he face what happened?
Jiang Tao said here to look at Zi Shan: “She is a bad person to destroy people’s marriages, I know, and I am ashamed of this, but she is still my mother, just like other selfless love of children’s mothers, I am caring, just from the mother of a child’s care, she is a good mother can not be faulted. So, I am sad, very sad.”
“Because there was only mom in my life, and because a lot of people knew about my mom, I grew up with people pointing at me and not having many friends,” his voice was still as quiet as ever, exactly the tone of a cold-eyed bystander, even as he talked about how sad he was, “The sky, that very night, collapsed It collapsed, and the life I had resented disappeared, but I wasn’t happy.”
Zisan reached out and touched his arm, opening her mouth but not knowing what to say to comfort him, she didn’t despise Jiang Tao, but she really didn’t agree with what Jiang Tao’s mother had done – as a mother it wasn’t just about taking care of the child well, so she really didn’t deserve to be a mother.
Jiang Tao turned his head to look at Zi Shan: ”It’s all in the past. And the most fortunate thing is that I didn’t become a bad person, but became a lawyer, a more normal person. Sadness, it will always pass, no matter how heavy it is. Without going into it, I thought I could be indifferent, but actually bringing it up I realized I really can’t.”
“I still still have a grudge, and I still have a deep love and attachment to her,” he shook his head slightly after a bitter smile, “One thing to say is that my biological father’s wife is neither a good nor a bad person, she is just an ordinary person, even if she has a noble temperament, she is still a human being first and foremost. I don’t say that she was an ordinary woman, because the same situation if it were borne by a man, probably the man would have freaked out and killed-people are not male or female, they are supposed to be of the same kind.”
“It’s morbid to discriminate against your own kind.” He parked the car, “She wasn’t exactly nice to me but not bad either, never scolded me, just never spoke to me, looked at me with all the loathing in her eyes – I looked like my mom but didn’t give me a penny less, ate, wore and everything else pretty much the same as her sons and daughters until I until I graduated from college.”
He sighed long and hard, “I don’t have any complaints, I’m honestly grateful to her, and because of my mom I have a heavy sense of guilt towards her. Forget it, let’s not talk about it, let’s go eat or neither one of us will be able to work up an appetite in a while.” Some wounds are not so easily forgotten, he really underestimated those things that he had thrown into a corner of his heart.
Zisan looked at him and got out of the car in silence, until she finished ordering her food and sat down to take a sip of chrysanthemum tea she said, “Jiang Tao, you have me, them.” She quietly looked up at Jiang Tao, just now the mind some trance almost said the wrong words.
Good thing Jiang Tao didn’t hear anything, which put her mind at ease quite a bit. Jiang Tao smiled, “What supports me to come over is that I believe there are people in the world who are more miserable than me, they are all trying to struggle to live, what reason do I have to not try? Of course, I also did wrong things when I was young, the good thing is that I quickly came to my senses when I took a fork in the road.” He was in a much better mood, and it was as if he saw a rainbow, a rainbow of hope, in Zixan’s eyes.
At two o’clock in the afternoon the court officially opened, the public prosecutor did not read the indictment first like the original case flow, but in court on the purple Shan’s lawyer Jiang Tao objections, requesting the judge to disqualify Jiang Tao and transfer to the police station for investigation. The prosecutor’s reason was not that Jiang Tao was Zi Shan’s friend, but that he had obstructed justice in the case.
The judge looked at Jiang Tao: “What evidence do you have, public prosecutor? If you don’t have evidence you can’t do this in court because it’s very unfair to the victim, and it’s also not favorable to the indictment you filed.”
The public prosecutor, however, insisted: “There are records and videos from the detention center as evidence, and the human witnesses are the cleaners in the detention center and Li Rongxuan as evidence – all of which can confirm that Jiang Tao Jiang lawyer went to the detention center to meet the defendant Li Rongxuan many times and instructed Li Rongxuan on how to evade the charges, and Li Rongxuan testified that he received money from the Li family to do so. would do so.”
“That’s why the matter of having to change lawyers today happened, this person tricked the victim into believing in replacing the original lawyer, Lin Hao, as a way to achieve the goal of letting Li Rongxuan off the hook.” The public prosecutor glanced at Zi Shan, there was sympathy and disapproval in her gaze, obviously she was a bit annoyed that Zi Shan had led the wolf into the house.
What happened in court made Zi Shan’s brain short-circuit a bit, Jiang Tao went to the detention center to see Li Rongxuan? That’s impossible! Because she has been very busy, Jiang Tao is not her representative lawyer in this case, how can go to the detention center to see Li Rongxuan, as for the accusation of the prosecutor said, she took a look at Jiang Tao said nothing will not believe.
She trusted Jiang Tao’s character, moreover, she didn’t believe that he would do such harmful things to himself – what good would it do to himself?
Li Rongxuan loudly pointed at Jiang Tao and said, “It is he who said to me that he was sure that I would agree, I was lured by him, I can’t be blamed, I am willing to serve the law, as long as it is something I did wrong I am willing to atone for my sins, please give me this opportunity.”
Jiang Tao didn’t speak but turned away, Zi Shan followed his gaze and saw Lin Hao who was present! She looked at Lin Hao and really couldn’t figure it out, what good could it do to Lin Hao if she did this? He has done this kind of thing over and over again to hurt himself, but still has to say “I love you” to her, it is really too infuriating.
If it wasn’t for the courtroom, Zi Shan would have gone over to him and slapped him, but Lin Hao met Zi Shan’s gaze and nodded his head, not looking guilty or defenseless at all. Even if what happened in front of him had nothing to do with him, just by virtue of the fact that he and Li Rongqi and the others were counting on Jiang Tao, he should be a little ashamed to see her now, but no, Lin Hao looked at Zi Shan with only the word “caring” in his gaze.
Originally two beautiful words, because appeared in Lin Hao’s eyes, let Zi Shan born nausea feeling.
The video was taken up, and the judge frowned: “This is a separate matter, it needs to be filed separately for investigation and a separate trial, but with the current evidence and witness testimony, I don’t think it’s convenient for you, Lawyer Jiang Tao, to be the victim’s lawyer any longer, you have no objections, right?”
