Chapter 60: (1/2)
A few days later, the court officially opened.
Meng Qian sat in the dock with her head down, her body crouched, and she hadn't appeared in public view for a short period of time. She was so haggard that she couldn't see anyone at all.
On the plaintiff's bench, it was not Zhong Youyou, but Zhong Guoqiang, who was staring at Meng Qian with angrily in his eyes, his hands on the table clenched tightly.
Before the court session, he asked someone to contact Qin Yao and told Qin Yao that it was best not to let Zhong Youyou go to court. In any case, at this time, his father should also do his duty as a father. He wants to protect his daughter. As the plaintiff standing on the plaintiff's seat, it will not be a pleasant experience anyway.
Zhong Youyou's ultimate goal is to get Meng Qian to be sentenced to the heaviest sentence and go to jail as soon as possible. It doesn't matter whether the plaintiff comes or not.
It's just that she is still a bit complicated when she hears Zhongfu's request. Do the Zhong family members now want to repay the debts they owed in their previous life? Otherwise, given Zhong Guoqiang's face-loving and good-famous character, let alone going to court, he is afraid that he would even cause trouble to affect Zhong's reputation.
And now he took the initiative to ask to be the plaintiff...
The Zhong family has indeed changed a lot, but there are some relatives in the world, probably because of poor fate, if you miss it, you miss it, and you can never go back to the past.
After all, Zhong Youyou agreed to Father Zhong's request. On the day of the trial, she and Qin Yao just sat on the jury.
The lawyer Qin Yao invited was quite professional, and kept asking questions, making Meng Qian speechless, forcing Meng Qian to explain clearly the crimes committed in the past one by one in the court.
Under the legal net, Meng Qian finally burst into tears, as if she had been caught in the current rat, with no self-confidence.
The trial was repeated more than once and it lasted for a long time. In the end, the judge gave a final word, sentenced to ten years in prison and confiscated all property.
ten years! Except for Zhong Youyou and others, many people on the jury stand took a breath.
This is already the heaviest penalty!
Hearing this result, Zhong Youyou exhaled a sullen breath and relaxed his body a little tiredly. People should always pay for the crimes they committed. If they follow the original text, Meng Qian and Meng Shixuan will not pay anything at all. , But everyone pity them. And this trip on his own and sent Meng Qian to prison is not in vain.
Qin Yao sat beside her and clenched her hand.
The father Zhong, who was sitting on the plaintiff’s table, also looked at Zhong Youyou from a distance. In addition to the resentment towards Meng Qian, his face was more of guilt, regret, and various complicated feelings for Zhong Youyou. .
If the original guilt for Zhong Youyou was only nine points, then after seeing the details of the interview with his own eyes, his guilt for this biological daughter reached its peak overnight.
As an entrepreneur who smashed the mall, he felt frustrated and powerless for the first time in his life.
Because the past cannot be compensated, the future cannot be predicted, and Zhong Youyou, his biological daughter will never forgive him.
...
He Chunsheng actually visited Meng Qian for the last time during the final trial. But at this time, Meng Qian was forced to sign the divorce agreement, and he hated him for his innocence. The sight of him was filled with resentment.
He Chunsheng also felt very helpless, but now he himself was in debt and burnt out by Meng Qian, so how could he care about Meng Qian's feelings? Seeing this last side, it can be regarded as the most benevolent. From now on, he will only consider himself blind before, and it is best to have nothing to do with Meng Qian from now on.
Before being taken away, Meng Qian's cloudy eyes searched eagerly on the jury.
However, Meng Shixuan, the biological daughter that she tried to protect the last moment, did not even come to see her for the last moment - she should be embarrassing. Meng Qian smiled bitterly, wrinkles appeared in the corners of her eyes much older, and some tears leaked.
At this moment, she glanced at the sunlight outside the court. Ten years, what a long number. She is now forty-seven and eighty-eight. When she comes out, she will be completely an old man. She is still an old man who knows nothing and can’t keep up with the times. Then how will she spend the disabled outside? year? !
Meng Qian suddenly felt a deep remorse in her heart. Why did she have to toss her life into such a situation? Is it really worth it for her own daughter who was too embarrassed to see her for the last time?
But no matter what her thoughts were at this time, she could only be numbly and passively led to the prison.
It is not allowed to come out within ten years.
Public opinion has not stopped yet, and this incident has indeed caused a lot of trouble this time and has triggered discussions from many circles. After leaving the court, media reporters and cameras swarmed up like mountains and seas. It took Qin Yao more than 20 minutes to protect Zhong Youyou from the media before squeezing into the underground parking lot and avoiding reporters.
Zhong Youyou got in the car first, and Qin Yao answered the phone.
He walked to the far side and smiled at Zhong Youyou in the car, but his tone on the other side of the phone was very heavy: ”Help me check, how much property Meng Qian had before he went to jail, are you sure that all have been confiscated? Check it out.”
Although Meng Qian looked miserable at this time and would never be able to turn over, it is better to be cautious in everything, not to mention that this is still a matter of Zhong Youyou, how could Qin Yao not be cautious. Money can do a lot of things, if Meng Qian is not afraid to make the last one before entering prison, then it will be troublesome.
The phone said: ”Okay, don't worry.”
After a pause, Qin Yao said again: ”Also, give her a bit of hardship in prison.”
You don't need to tell Zhong Youyou about these things, but he must deal with the poisonous snake.
Zhong's father's car was also in the same underground parking lot. He and his assistant finally squeezed out of the court's pile of media reporters, and their suits were crumpled. He rushed over while patting his suit, and found Qin Yao was calling, but he and Zhong Youyou hadn't left yet!
Father Zhong was overjoyed. He walked quickly to Qin Yao's car, knocked on the window, and bent down: ”Yoyou, let's have dinner with Dad at noon.”
At this time, Father Zhong's eyes were full of guilt and distress, and his tone was cautiously pleased.
Zhong Youyou caught a glimpse of the two white hairs by the side of Zhong's father, and he felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he was a middle-aged man who was about to be fifty years old. But she still shook her head: ”Don't go.”
The windows are not lowered.
Although Father Zhong was a little embarrassed, he still didn't take care of the face, and continued: ”I ordered a table of dishes at the hotel, so how about we father and daughter have a home-cooked meal? It would be better if Qin Yao came together. , Dad promises not to talk to you any unpleasant things.”
Zhong Youyou naturally refused: ”I have a place to eat, so don't worry about it.”
Her tone was too decisive, which made Zhong Guoqiang feel uncomfortable, and said, ”Dad didn't say that you would forgive me or anything. It's just a meal. Isn't it okay to have only one meal? Let the hotel do something you love. Let’s gather for the food to eat.”
Father Zhong's tone was extremely soft.
