Chapter 540: Trial Day

~7 min read 1,344 words

October 26th.

The "Yan Wenxi Organized Crime Case" was tried at the Zhonghui District People's Court at 9:00 a. m. that day.

This trial adopted a non-public trial process. Except for the public prosecution and the defendant's lawyers, attendance was prohibited, non-official recording and filming were prohibited, and reporters were prohibited from entering.

After six o'clock in the morning, Wang Zhaoning got up early to put on makeup. She wanted to make herself look beautiful. If there was a chance to let Xizi take a look at her, she wanted Xizi to know that she was in good condition and would wait for him to come out.

Shen Ci also returned home a day in advance and came over early in the morning after packing up.

Yan Mu was so nervous that she kept sitting on the sofa and muttering, not as noisy as usual.

Lin Sao wrapped Xixi up and said with some worry: "Xixi hasn't been full moon yet, really want to take her?"

"Want to let Xizi take a look, let him have a hope," the old lady looked up and said.

This was also her meaning. Lin Sao didn't dare to refute, only looked at Shen Ci helplessly.

Shen Ci knew Lin Sao felt sorry for the child. After all, it wasn't a full moon. If she went out and saw the wind and caught a cold, it would be very troublesome for a premature baby to get sick.

"Auntie, Xixi won't go. It's not certain whether we can see my brother, don't toss the child," Shen Ci said bluntly.

Without waiting for the old lady to refute, she added: "If we can see him, we will shout together that it is a daughter, he will definitely hear it."

Wang Zhaoning came down from upstairs, heard Shen Ci's words, and echoed: "A-Ci is right, Xixi is too small, can't be taken out. It's getting cold at the end of October, easy to catch a cold."

The old lady opened her mouth, and then noticed Shen Ci winking at her, and suddenly remembered what Shen Ci had told her to follow Wang Zhaoning in everything, so she quickly nodded: "Okay, listen to you."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Shen Ci greeted the old lady to go out and get in the car first: "Let's go over early. Lawyer Qin said that the escort car usually arrives at the court an hour in advance, but it's not certain which door it will take, so we can only try our luck."

"Okay, okay, okay, then let's set off quickly, don't miss the time."

Wang Zhaoning instructed Lin Sao: "Take good care of Xixi. If I see Xizi, I will video call you. At that time, you point the camera at Xixi and let Xizi take a look."

"Eh, rest assured, Madam, I will watch the phone at all times. You haven't finished the month yet, don't be too excited." Lin Sao comforted Wang Zhaoning instead.

Wang Zhaoning nodded, and then went out holding Shen Ci's hand.

In the driver's seat, Duanduan saw that everyone had fastened their seat belts and confirmed that they could set off, so she started the car.

Around 7:30, the group came to the front gate of the court and found that Boss Yang had arrived one step ahead.

"Uncle Yang, you are here too!"

"Must come, no matter what, must know the verdict," Boss Yang said, first greeted Yan Mu, and then looked at Wang Zhaoning with concern: "How is sister-in-law? Is your body okay?"

"Quite good, thank you Brother Yang for being able to come today," Wang Zhaoning was a bit moved, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Oh, don't say this, and don't cry, control your emotions, you are still in the month."

Wang Zhaoning nodded, blinked hard, and held back her tears.

Not long after, Lawyer Qin in a black suit came.

He was rigorous, his temperament was meticulous, and he walked from afar with a compelling aura.

"Lawyer Qin!"

Wang Zhaoning greeted, walked forward a few steps, and Shen Ci and the others also quickly gathered around.

Lawyer Qin stood still, his gaze sweeping over the few people lightly: "Everyone is here."

Yan Mu grabbed Lawyer Qin's arm excitedly, her tone with a crying voice: "Lawyer Qin, do we have certainty? You must keep Xizi, don't let him be sentenced to life imprisonment and death penalty!"

"Auntie, don't be excited first," Shen Ci quickly comforted.

This old lady's heart for her son was indeed not fake.

Lawyer Qin's face was calm, looking like he had a lot of confidence.

"Rest assured, a few, I will definitely do my best. You wait here. When the escort car comes, it may not take the front door, but when it leaves, it will likely be escorted out from the front door. At that time, you can see him from afar, but pay attention not to have excessive behavior."

Hearing that it was very likely to see Xizi, Wang Zhaoning's eyes couldn't help but turn red again.

Even Shen Ci's eyes turned red. It had been nearly half a year since her brother was taken away, and it had been in a state of prohibition of visitation. Today, there was finally a chance to see him.

Lawyer Qin carried his briefcase and stepped up the high steps of the court, his back straight as he walked toward the court gate.

Duanduan ran back to the car and took out a few folding chairs: "Sister-in-law, you sit and wait, must pay attention to your body. Auntie, you sit too, I will watch for you."

Boss Yang looked at his watch, it was almost eight o'clock: "Should be almost there, if it doesn't come after eight o'clock, then have to wait until the end."

Who knew that at this time, Yan Wentao appeared.

"Mom, sister-in-law!"

He called from across the road, causing everyone to look over.

Wang Zhaoning frowned, and an undisguised disgust appeared on her face.

The old lady was startled first, and then quickly explained: "Zhaoning, it's not me who said it, I didn't tell him."

Shen Ci was relatively calm, only said lightly: "My brother's trial today is not a secret, it's easy for him to know, and we will definitely come today. He couldn't find sister-in-law before, so it's normal to choose to block people at the court today."

During the conversation, Yan Wentao had arrived. His gaze fell on Wang Zhaoning's stomach, and then his brows picked: "Yo, sister-in-law unloaded? Congratulations, boy or girl?"

"Wentao!" The old lady glared at him and scolded: "Not allowed to talk to your sister-in-law like this!"

"Mom, you don't want me as a son?" Yan Wentao said with a grievance: "I went home and there was no one, I called you and sent messages and you didn't reply, I was about to call the police."

"Your sister-in-law gave birth, isn't it right for me to take care of her? You are so big, why are you looking for mom every day?" Yan Mu said unhappily, and then reminded him: "Your sister-in-law hasn't finished the month yet, can't be angry. If you are here to see your brother, be honest, otherwise go back."

"Of course I am here to see my brother," Yan Wentao pouted, turned his head and noticed Shen Ci on the side, his eyes narrowed, and his tone was unkind: "This little girl is also here!"

Shen Ci looked at him expressionlessly, too lazy to pay attention to him.

At this time, Boss Yang on the side sighed: "Past eight o'clock, it is estimated that the escort car will not take the front door."

Once this was said, everyone's expression sank, only Yan Wentao was still asking the old lady: "Sister-in-law gave birth to a boy or a girl? Where do you live now? Mom?"

?? The last day of the month, babies, all in if you have monthly tickets, vote all, otherwise it will be wasted after 31st midnight. ===== CHAPTER 541 =====
