Upon seeing the talking and smiling Meng Jinyang and Shen Huan, the tension in her head eased up. She walked over and threw a few pieces of chocolate and White Rabbit Creamy Candy onto Meng Jinyang’s desk before walking back to her own seat with her hands stuffed in her pockets.

Meng Jinyang smiled. She gave one of the sweets to Shen Huan and ate one herself. Lu Yang, Chu Yao, and Fatty snatched up a piece of chocolate and split it amongst themselves, looking extremely smug. Seeing that Meng Jinyang’s gaze did not change, they started to joke with them as per usual.

Upon Gu Mang and Lu Yang’s entrance, those who were yakking away earlier fell silent.

Gu Mang sent a message to Lu Shangjin, stating that the media was not to come to Ming City High School to disturb Meng Jinyang.

Lu Shangjin replied, “Relax, I already arranged it.”

Gu Mang replied, “Mm.”

Lu Shangjin asked, “How is Jinyang today? Is she still okay?”

Gu Mang’s eyelids hung low as she typed absent-mindedly, “She’s quite okay.”

Lu Shangjin said, “Aish, this is such a thorny problem. Your years of hard work and effort have gone to waste. Gu Yin is really a bad apple. If she weren’t your sister, I…”

Anger flashed in Gu Mang’s eyes and disappeared quickly. She replied lazily, “That’s why I almost killed her earlier.”

“…”

It were as though Lu Shangjin was at the scene and trying to hold her back as he typed trembling, “Boss! Please stay calm!”

The corner of Gu Mang’s lips twitched into a smirk, making her look wicked and wild.

…

Another hot piece of news hit trending again. Cao Gang, the criminal who had just been released, was diagnosed by psychologists as having the possibility of repeating his crimes. In order to avoid mass-panic, he was arrested and placed under supervision again.

The number one lawyer in the capital, Jiang Shenyuan, who filed a new lawsuit against Cao Gang, felt that the ruling back then was unreasonable. 12 years ago, criminals could use mental illness as a protective umbrella in their cases.

However, under the current improved law, having a mental illness was no longer a license for someone to commit murder, and anyone who did so would be judged responsibly under criminal law.

Cao Gang’s actions were vile and severe. He should be sentenced to death!

Jiang Shenyuan’s Weibo had a new post.

“The law is used to protect citizens, not for criminals to abuse to escape punishment. As Meng Jinyang’s lawyer, I have filed another lawsuit against Cao Gang. I urge the reconsideration of the judgement in this case and I will fight for it pro bono.”

Jiang Shenyuan was a top-grade lawyer in the law circle who charged millions in fees if he took one’s case. The entire country regarded his pro bono work for Meng Jinyang’s case positively.

“Great work, Lawyer Jiang!”

“That motherf*cker ruined a girl for life! 12 years is too lenient for this piece of sh*t! He should be executed by firing squad!”

“This person looks really terrifying in his photos. They do say that one’s appearance reflects their thoughts.”

1

“This b*stard is practically out to annihilate humanity! He deserves to die!”

…

Jiang Shenyuan had not taken a court case for over a year, but he came out of self imposed retirement for this court case that he practically had no concern for. The law circle was stunned.

At the table, Jiang Shenyuan’s friend looked at him as he drank. “Shenyuan, Cao Gang won’t be able to escape the death penalty no matter what. You could have handed this case to the lawyers in your office. There was no need to mobilize the number one lawyer.”

Jiang Shenyuan was sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed. He swirled his glass and looked at him with narrowed eyes. “Do you think I’m very great?”

His friend cocked his eyebrow and asked instead, “Is there a lawyer who’s better than you in this country?”

“There is.” Jiang Shenyuan smiled.

His friend was slightly stunned. “Is that for real?! You’re lying to me, right? I’ve never heard of this person.”

A mist shrouded Jiang Shenyuan’s gaze, as though he were reminiscing about something. “I suffered defeat by her hands.”

His friend looked at him in disbelief.

“I’ll be leaving; I have something to attend to.” Jiang Shenyuan put his glass down, stood up to pat his friend’s shoulder, took his coat, and turned to leave.
