2024-10-29 19:42:56There was silence in the courtroom, and everyone's eyes were focused on Tong Xiaoge, waiting for her reaction.
Although Bai Youwei's words sounded sympathetic, they actually contained intrigue and were intended to lead the jury to be biased against Tong Xiaoge.
Tong Xiaoge took a deep breath and responded calmly, "Ms. Bai, thank you for your concern about my past. It is true that I had an unfortunate childhood. This is an undeniable fact."
"But this does not affect my determination as a lawyer to pursue justice here."
"But, Lawyer Tong, when you were handling this case, didn't you have any personal feelings towards the Bai family?"
Bai Youwei refused to give in, and there was a hint of inducement in her tone.
"Ms. Bai, everything I say and do here strictly abides by the law and professional ethics."
Tong Xiaoge answered appropriately, her expression calm, "Although my personal experience has been rough, it has forged my perseverance a

"Every defense in court is to make the facts clearer, no matter who the other party is. I am here not only as a lawyer, but also as your supporter."Her words flowed slowly, like a warm spring breeze, trying to dispel the haze in the couple's hearts."You also need to rest and keep your energy. This battle may be long, but I promise that I will always stand by Xiaowei and do my best to get her a fair verdict."Xiaowei 's mother's eyes. She nodded heavily and tried her best to suppress her emotions."Lawyer Tong, thank you so much. With you here, we feel more at ease."At this time, Fu Chen walked out of the court and witnessed this scene.His expression remained calm, but his eyes inevitably revealed his complex emotions towards Tong Xiaoge.Tong Xiaoge felt Fu Chen's gaze, but ignored him and continued to say to Xiao Wei's parents:"Now, please go back and rest, and keep your physical and mental strength. This lawsuit requires

"Do we really have no choice?" Xiaowei 's mother asked softly, her voice full of powerlessness."Maybe this is the only thing we can do, to protect Xiaowei and to give her a quiet environment." The father's answer was equally heavy.He knew very well that this compromise might put a huge psychological burden on them, but they were powerless in the face of evil forces.They looked at each other, tears glistening in both of their eyes."How should we explain all this to Xiaowei?" The mother's voice was tearful. Her heart seemed to be tightly gripped and she was afraid of the upcoming conversation.“We don’t tell her the specifics, we just say we fixed the problem and everything will be fine.”The father tried to sound firm, even though he himself was agonizing over the decision.After making the decision, the two walked out of the room and faced the Bai family again."We...we decided to accept the money."His voice was low,

Bai Haoyang paced back and forth, frowning, anger boiling in his chest, and finally he could no longer hold it back:"This Tong Xiaoge is really ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth! How dare he make things so serious! Does this little lawyer really think he can bring down our Bai family?"Bai Youwei sat on the sofa, her posture elegant and dignified, but her fingers were tightly clenched around her Chanel bag.She sneered, her voice tinged with coldness, "She is just trying to use this opportunity to gain sympathy and portray herself as a righteous person. Those who sympathize with her are just fools who have been bewitched by her."She stood up, walked to the window, looked at the flowers in the garden swaying in the breeze, her eyes narrowed slightly, as if those swaying flowers had also become her enemies."These trending searches have brought us a lot of pressure. Public opinion is no longer under our control." Her tone sounded a li

But her voice was gradually suppressed by the weight of the evidence.The air in the courtroom seemed to freeze. Everyone's eyes were focused on the evidence presented by Tong Xiaoge. The Bai family's lies and disguises began to disintegrate one by one under the sunlight.As the trial progressed, the public gradually saw the truth, and discussions on social media began to tend to support Tong Xiaoge and demand severe punishment for the Bai family.As the case progressed, the live broadcast screen continuously scrolled with comments from netizens. These words were like whispers from the audience, full of anger, sympathy, or support for justice."Looking at Bai Haoyang's expression, I know that he feels guilty!""Lawyer Tong is amazing. Every piece of evidence is as solid as a rock!""I sincerely hope that Xiao Wei can get a fair result this time. I support Tong Xiaoge!"Comments on the screen rolled like a tide, and netizens' emotions

As the meeting continued, the Bai family's top brass began to discuss various strategies for resolving the issue through legal and financial means.Each proposal is carefully analyzed to try to find the best balance between risks and opportunities.A few days later, in the Bai family's luxurious reception room, the atmosphere was solemn.Various people were sitting around the long table, and everyone's face was full of worry.Bai Zhengqing sat at the head of the table, his eyes sweeping over everyone present, his voice low:"We have received news that the bail fee will be 30 million, which is a considerable amount considering the company's current cash flow."Bai Youwei beside him clenched her hands, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, "But we can't let my brother suffer in prison. No matter what the price, we must let him out."An elderly financial advisor frowned, with a worried tone, "However, this will greatly affect our

"From now on, if you make trouble, you have to solve it yourself. Don't expect me to clean up your mess again."Bai Haoyang's face changed. This was a situation he had never encountered before.He turned around and looked at his parents, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, "You can't do this to me, I am the only son of the Bai family!""So what?" Bai Zhengqing said firmly, no room for negotiation. "If you continue to behave like this , I will no longer have you as my son."He turned and left the living room, leaving Bai Haoyang standing there alone, facing the city lights outside the window, feeling extremely annoyed.Bai Youwei came quietly from the side and said softly, "Brother, Mom and Dad are angry, you should reflect on yourself.""Not every mistake can be solved with money. This time, you really implicated too many people.""The company's stock price has fallen sharply recently and it almost went bankrupt. Fortunately, my fath

She spoke quickly and clearly, her voice remarkably calm despite the fear that was raging in her.Lin Shuyu's voice immediately became nervous, "Xiao Ge, where are you? I'll come right over.""I'm walking towards the central square now, and try to find a place with more people." Tong Xiaoge said as he quickly walked through a narrow alley.On both sides of the alley are closed shops and dilapidated warehouses, with only one or two windows occasionally emitting dim light.Walking out of the alley, Tong Xiaoge came to a busy street.The street lights here were bright and people were coming and going. She slowed down her pace a little, but still vigilantly observed the surrounding environment.Her heart was beating violently in her chest, and every passerby was a potential threat.Just then, a black car drove slowly by, the window rolled down, and a pair of searching eyes peeked out from inside, looking straight at her.Tong Xiaoge

Alcohol stimulated his nerves, but it could not numb the resentment in his heart.His hand gently stroked the bottles on the bar, and every detail reflected the faint light.His eyes were blurry and his mind was filled with thoughts.He knew that the money only temporarily calmed the threat, but the resentment deep inside was growing stronger."This can't end like this." He said to himself, with determination in his voice, "I won't let it go like this."Bai Haoyang's meditation in the study was interrupted by the doorbell. He looked up and saw Bai Youwei standing at the door. The cold light in her eyes could not be ignored.Bai Youwei walked into the study, her steps were elegant but with a proud attitude."Brother, we need to talk."Bai Haoyang raised his head and looked at Bai Youwei with complicated eyes, "What are you talking about?""About the way you dealt with Tong Xiaoge." Bai Youwei closed the door, a hint of cont

Lin Shuyu's voice was still full of concern, "Okay, Xiaoge, you have to be careful. I will do my best to collect evidence and wait for you to come back."Tong Xiaoge nodded, "Thank you, Brother. I will be in Yuncheng soon."After hanging up the phone, Tong Xiaoge became more certain that she must rush back to Yuncheng as soon as possible to rescue Shi Jinglan's family and not let them get hurt because of her.She went to the hospital's front desk and made arrangements for Grandma Tian's funeral.Then she hurriedly took a taxi and prepared to take the next flight back to Yuncheng.The night breeze blew on her face, but her mood felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on her, heavy and urgent.Tong Xiaoge sat by the window, looking at the scenery rapidly receding outside the window, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.There are many problems she needs to solve. Not only does she have to face the overbearing Fu Chen and protect Shi J

He knew that once Tong Xiaoge returned to Yuncheng, she would have to face Fu Chen's control again, but he had no choice but to protect her friend with all his strength.Tong Xiaoge got into a taxi. The night breeze gently blew on her face through the half-open window, but she couldn't calm down.She held the phone tightly, her thoughts in a mess, and Fu Chen's cold face and Shi Jinglan's helpless look kept flashing through her mind.The taxi had just gone a short distance when she suddenly slapped her forehead, her heart tightening, "Master, please turn around, I left my ID card at the B&B."The driver nodded and drove the car back the same way.When they arrived at the alley outside the B&B, Tong Xiaoge got off the car quickly, anxiously thinking about returning to the B&B to get her ID card and then rushing back to the airport.She walked quickly back to the B&B, and just as she reached the door, she suddenly saw a figure sneaking away o

One night, Shi Jinglan received a strange phone call. A cold voice came from the other end of the phone:"Miss Shi, if you don't cooperate, don't blame us for being rude."As soon as he finished speaking, the door of Shi Jinglan's house was forced open, and a group of bodyguards in black rushed in.They took control of everyone in Shi Jianguo and Shi Jinglan's homes.Shi Jinglan struggled and roared, "Fu Chen, you are crazy! What you are doing is illegal!"Fu Chen walked in coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Jinglan , I have given you a chance.""Since you are unwilling to cooperate, this is the only way."Shi Jinglan's eyes flashed with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Fu Chen, what do you want?"Fu Chen sneered, "It's very simple. Tell me where Tong Xiaoge is and I can let you go. Otherwise, your whole family will be in turmoil."Shi Jinglan felt a surge of despair in her heart, but she still sai

Grandma Tian left the balcony with a smile. Tong Xiaoge looked at her back and felt a warm feeling in his heart.The early morning sun shines on the quaint town, and the streets are filled with the faint fragrance of flowers.Tong Xiaoge decided to go to the market to buy some fresh vegetables, thinking of making dumplings with Grandma Tian in the evening.She put on simple clothes, walked out of the hotel, and walked towards the market along the bluestone path.The market was bustling with people, vendors were shouting enthusiastically, and the air was filled with the aroma of various foods.Tong Xiaoge stopped in front of the vegetable stall and picked some fresh vegetables.She was in a good mood, and thinking about the dumpling dinner in the evening, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly."Girl, you bought so many vegetables today. Is it a special day?" asked the vegetable seller with a smile.Tong Xiaoge

"Girl, are you looking for a place to live?" the old woman asked gently, with a kind gleam in her eyes.Tong Xiaoge nodded, a trace of fatigue on her face, "Yes, mother-in-law. Is there any room available?"The old woman nodded and said enthusiastically, "Yes, yes, please follow me, girl."Tong Xiaoge followed the old lady upstairs and walked into a warm little room.The room is not big, but it is decorated very warmly. The bedding on the bed is neat and clean, and you can see a quiet garden outside the window.She put down her luggage, feeling a surge of gratitude."Thank you, mother-in-law. It's so beautiful here." Tong Xiaoge said sincerely.The old woman smiled, her eyes full of love, "As long as the girl likes it. This is a small B&B I have run for many years. Guests say it feels like home here."Tong Xiaoge nodded, and the uneasiness in her heart eased a little.She looked at the old woman in front of her and felt a

The breakfast on the table was barely touched. It was obvious that he had not slept all night and was in an even more irritable mood.Bai Youwei took a deep breath, walked forward, and said softly, "Brother Fu Chen, haven't you had breakfast yet? Health is important, eat something first."Fu Chen looked up at her with only indifference in his eyes, "I have no appetite, it's none of your business."Bai Youwei felt a sharp pain in her heart, but she still kept smiling, "Brother Fu Chen, I know you feel bad, but you must take care of yourself. We will definitely find Tong Xiaoge."Fu Chen looked at her coldly, with a hint of impatience in his tone:"Youwei , you don't know anything. Don't waste your time here. You might as well go help find someone."Bai Youwei's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.She knew that now was not the time to argue with Fu Chen, she had to calm down."Brother Fu Chen, I wi
Love and Chain Chapter 81 Must Find Her
He paced back and forth in the room, his thoughts in confusion, and the figure of Tong Xiaoge kept appearing in his mind.He knew that he could not lose her again, no matter what the cost, he would get her back.At this moment, Shen Lanxiu and Bai Youwei walked in.Seeing Fu Chen's gloomy face, Shen Lanxiu asked with concern, " Chen'er , what's wrong? Have you found Tong Xiaoge?"Fu Chen glanced at them coldly, with a flash of anger in his eyes, "She has left, and the assistant hasn't found her yet."Shen Lanxiu frowned, pretending to be concerned and comforted, " Chen'er , don't worry, we will definitely find her."When Bai Youwei saw this, a trace of pride flashed in her eyes, but there was a concerned expression on her face:"Brother Fu Chen, don't worry too much. Maybe Tong Xiaoge just went out to relax and will be back in a few days."Fu Chen snorted coldly, his eyes flashing coldly, "What do you know? She has been clamorin

She only packed a few items she bought into the suitcase, and she moved very quietly, fearing that she might wake up Fu Chen who was soundly sleeping.The photo on the table caught Tong Xiaoge's attention. It was a photo of them before they became husband and wife.At that time, Fu Chen smiled so brightly, his eyes full of tenderness.Tong Xiaoge gently picked up the photo, brushed her fingertips across Fu Chen's face, tears glistening in her eyes.She took a deep breath, put the photo back where it was, and continued packing her things.Throughout the whole process, Tong Xiaoge tried her best to keep herself calm, but the waves in her heart were difficult to calm.Everything left behind is a farewell to the past, to the former self and Fu Chen.She closed the suitcase gently and went back to the study.There were some of her books and documents there. She picked up a book whose cover had turned a little yellow. It was the first

Bai Youwei walked over gently and said softly, "Brother Fu Chen, you have already drunk a lot. If you drink more, your body will not be able to bear it."Fu Chen ignored her and continued drinking.Bai Youwei frowned slightly, feeling secretly anxious.She knew she had to act quickly.She walked over to the wine cabinet and pretended to pick up a new bottle of red wine.While Fu Chen was not paying attention, he poured the prepared medicine powder into the wine glass, then walked back to Fu Chen with the wine glass."Brother Fu Chen, I know you feel bad, I can drink with you at worst."Bai Youwei said softly, handing the wine glass to Fu Chen.Fu Chen took the wine glass in a daze and drank it all.He didn't notice anything unusual about the alcohol, he just felt his head getting heavier and his vision getting blurry.Bai Youwei felt proud when she saw this.She knew that the medicine had begun to take effect.
