Chapter 168: Satisfying Court (4)

She did not even need to think about it to know that the reporters had already gathered outside.

She pursed her lips and sat there nervously, waiting for the hearing.

At the same time.

Outside the main entrance of the court.

Wen Yun alighted from a black car. He was in a dark suit and tie and looked to be a humble man, even though his image in Wen City had been terrible recently.

The reporters swarmed over.

He seemed to be waiting for the reporters and did not reject them.

The reporter asked, “Mr. Wen, are you here to see what happens to Lu Zishan?!”

“Of course not.” Wen Yun denied. “Lu Manman and I were a couple, after all. I should come and see how her father is doing, whether it’s for business or personal reasons.”

“Then, do you personally think that Lu Zishan’s crime is valid? How many years will he be sentenced to?!”

“This is a court matter. I have no right to reply. Please make way.” With that, he was ready to push the reporters aside.

“And I think that Lu Zishan will be acquitted.” A man’s voice sounded from behind him.

The reporter turned around and saw Mo Yuanxiu.

He was also in a dark suit and tie, appearing mature and reliable. He elegantly closed the car door and turned around to face the reporters.

Wen Yun’s expression darkened as he glared at Mo Yuanxiu.

Mo Yuanxiu smiled nonchalantly and slowly repeated to the reporter. “I think Lu Manman’s father will be acquitted.”

“How could Mr. Mo be so confident?”

“Trusting a lover means trusting everything about her. That’s why I don’t think Lu Manman’s father would do anything illegal.”

“Isn’t Mr. Mo looking down on the court by saying this? Are you treating the law as a joke?” The reporter scoffed.

Mo Yuanxiu smiled coldly and said, “So you’re saying that to show respect to the law? The court hasn’t even finalized the sentence, and you’re already sure? Isn’t that despising the court?”

“I…”

“Don’t argue with me. You can’t win.” Mo Yuanxiu turned around and walked toward the court.

Wen Yun looked at his back disdainfully.

What right did this good-for-nothing man have to be so condescending!

The two of them entered the courtroom one after another.

Lu Manman had been sitting in her seat the whole time, appearing calm as she waited for the hearing to begin.

After Wen Yun entered, he looked at Lu Manman’s back and sat a distance away from her. Mo Yuanxiu naturally sat beside Lu Manman, appearing extremely calm.

“Why are you here?” she asked as she looked at him.

“I’m here to see you act all high and mighty.” Mo Yuanxiu smiled.

Lu Manman rolled her eyes.

She somehow felt that she was never on the same level as this man.

She turned around and saw Wen Yun, who was sitting on the other side.

Wen Yun seemed to glance back at her as well, and their eyes met.

She could see the anger and disdain in his eyes.

But she simply smiled.

The calmer she smiled, the angrier Wen Yun became.

“Miss Lu, have I told you before that I don’t like watching you and other men flirt?” Mo Yuanxiu leaned forward, blocking her line of sight.

She turned and looked at him. “Which eye of yours saw me flirting?”

“Both of my eyes.”

“I’d rather not squabble with you.”
