Chapter 840 - Yi Jingxi Was Sentenced (2/2)
The trial was mainly about the prosecutor accusing Princ.i.p.al Cheng. Yi Jingxi was both a suspect and a victim. He had also provided evidence. No matter how Princ.i.p.al Cheng’s lawyer defended him, he couldn’t possibly get away with it because the prosecutor was holding strong evidence.
At last, Xu Zhengquan was acquitted and released. He would also receive reasonable compensation from the government.
Luosang stood up with excitement. The judge continued, “Yi Jingxi and Cheng Fang will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of five years for deliberately falsifying evidence.”
“Jingxi…” Chu Lei burst into tears.
Yi Jingxi gave a bitter smile. From the beginning to the end, he didn’t even glance at Chu Lei, but fixed his eyes on Luosang who was hugging Xu Zhengxuan.
His eyes turned misty. The police officers came to take him away.
While walking past Xu Zhengxuan and Luosang, he said with a low voice, “Uncle Xu, I’m sorry.”
You shouldn’t say sorry to me. You should say that to Luosang and your own conscience,” Xu Zhengxuan responded with a deep frown.
He had liked that young man before, but unexpectedly…
He was stupid. He couldn’t believe that he actually tried to use Chu Lei to make Mo Jin jealous. He felt no pity for himself. He believed he deserves all that he had suffered.
“Sangsang… I wish you a happy life with Nian Junting,” Yi Jingxi gave a sad smile. Seeing Nian Junting walk over, he said to him, “Nian Junting, if you mistreat Luosang, I’ll make you suffer in five years when I get out of prison.”
“When you get out, I might have three kids already,” Nian Junting snorted then turned away.
The police officers took Yi Jingxi away. Chu Lei followed them out while crying. Out there, a group of reporters were taking photos.
Luosang held Xu Zhengxuan’s hands and said, “Dad, let’s go home.”
“I don’t have a home anymore,” Xu Zhengxuan smiled bitterly.
His name had been cleared, but what he had lost would never come back. The government would compensate him according to the average daily income in recent years, with an added sum for mental suffering compensation.
“Yi Jingxi bought our house. He went to prison now and the government has given it back to us.” Luosang put her arm around his and said, “You may enjoy your retirement from now on.”
“If you really have nothing to do, you can come to help with babysitting,” said Nian Justing abruptly.
“Ba-baby?” Xu Zhengxuan was confused. He turned to his daughter, saw her lower her head awkwardly. “You are not…”
“Father, Luo is already pregnant for over three months. We plan to get married in October,” Nian Junting said smilingly.
Xu Zhengxuan’s eyes popped out with anger. They had only been together for a short time, yet she already got pregnant. Hadn’t he been telling his daughter to protect herself since she was a little girl? Didn’t he tell her that she should not have s.e.x before getting married?
‘You…’
He glared at Nian Junting. Nian Junting looked at him, seeming to be honest and frank. Xu Zhengxuan suddenly didn’t know what to say. He had been in prison after all. His daughter became someone hated by everyone. However, Nian Junting was helping her all the time. He worked on his case, found evidence, made a lot of effort. How many men could do what he had done? Even though that son-in-law of his was a little thick-skinned, as long as he loved his daughter and was nice to her…
“You’re pregnant. You should get married,” he mumbled. “Treat my daughter well…”
