Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian Novel - Chapter 1737

Chapter 1737: Chapter 1251 I can’t stand staying where Xu Baohan has breathed for even a moment

Xia City High People’s court.

A lawsuit was nearing its end.

The autumn sun shone through the windows, landing on the fair face of the chief judge, Xu Baohan, who was in the middle of the high platform. The lines on the side of his face were cold and hard, but he was still handsome and smooth. Even if he lowered his head, the bridge of his nose was still perfectly straight, however, the aura around him exuded an inviolable dignity and nobility.

At this moment, his lips were perfectly shaped as he announced the outcome of this trial.

“… the defendant, Lin Hao, caused the death of his wife, Chen Juanqi, in the parking lot. His criminal law has already violated the criminal law and constitutes a crime of causing a traffic accident. However, due to a problem with the brakes of the car, he committed a negligent crime. According to Article 115, Paragraph 2, and Article 25, paragraph 2 of the criminal law of the People’s Republic of China, he was sentenced by Lin Hao to three years in prison with a suspended sentence of four years…”

“I’m not convinced.” Before he could finish his sentence, the plaintiff, Chen Liang, suddenly stood up from his chair and roared, “That bastard Lin Hao clearly did it on purpose. Why is he only sentenced to three years? This kind of person should die…”

“Silence,” Xu Baohan warned coldly, “Plaintiff, this is a court. If you don’t keep quiet, your actions will constitute contempt of court. If you have any objections to the trial, you can continue to appeal, but this time, the court will uphold the original sentence.”

“Uncle Chen, calm down.” An Lan hurriedly went over to pull Chen Liang back.

Chen Liang gritted his teeth in anger until Xu Baohan finished reading the final result and stood up to leave. Chen Liang suddenly pushed An Lan away, “Stay away, this is all your fault. If I knew this, I wouldn’t have hired you. You are useless. I’ve seen so many lawyers, but I’ve never seen someone as trashy as you. My daughter was clearly killed by that guy, but in the end, he was only sentenced to three years. If you can’t bring the criminal to justice, what kind of lawyer are you? Do you know that in order to fight this lawsuit, our entire family has basically gone bankrupt…”

An Lan was forcefully pushed onto the table behind her. After a long while, she couldn’t straighten her back due to the pain. However, when she looked up, Chen Liang had already run over to make trouble for Lin Hao, but his wife forcefully pulled him back.

It wasn’t until the Intern Yan Wen hurriedly held her up that she asked, “Lawyer An, are you alright?”

An Lan pursed her thin lips and shook her head, at this moment, the defendant’s lawyer Qi Junwen walked over with a smile and said, “Lawyer An, you, who is known as the undefeatable legend in the industry, aren’t you any better? I only realized that you’re just so-so when I really fought with you. TSK TSK, I’m really sorry. This is already the second trial. I think you guys should give up too. To be honest, up until now, we’re still very willing to settle things with you guys privately. After all, the Chen family’s situation is too miserable. The Chen Liang couple are already so old. It’s better to leave some money for their retirement to live the rest of their lives.”

Qi Junwen left with Lin Hao proudly.

Yan Wen was so angry that she spat at his back, “Rubbish, everyone in the industry knows that he specializes in black-hearted cases. Lawyer An, I told you, you shouldn’t have taken this case. This time, the presiding judge is Xu Baohan. Our law firm’s lawyers have never won a case against him. His horoscope is not on good terms with us.”

An Lan was originally filled with depression, but after hearing her words, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “As lawyers, do we still believe in superstitious things like the character eight?”

Yan Wen shrugged. “Then how do you explain the reason why we’ve been defeated by Xu Baohan Time and time again? Recently, we’ve been losing cases, and if this continues, fewer and fewer people will represent Zhenyuan.”

An Lan was also flustered at the mention of this. “Let’s go, let’s leave this place first. I can’t stand staying where Xu Baohan has breathed for even a moment.”
