Jin Wanyi had a guilty conscience. She couldn’t help but take a quick look at Prime Minister Tan.

Prime Minister Tan only looked nervously at Cai Songyin who had raised her brows little by little as he repeated, “She’s uttering nonsense…She is only a student. What does she know about going to court?”

“Prime Minister Tan, it’s unreasonable for you to say it like that.” Ma Qiqi didn’t know why she was so happy when she saw that Gu Nianzhi was finally calling Jin Wanyi out. She also spoke up to support her. “You say our Nianzhi is only a student? Did you know that Attorney Jin, the one you hired to represent you, is the opponent our Nianzhi defeated one year ago? Not to mention, our Nianzhi traveled to Germany to go to court for one of our country’s innocent overseas student who was a victim. She overturned the whole city of Rosslau’s senate, government, and police headquarters! You said she doesn’t know how to go to court? Haha, if she doesn’t know how to go to court, then this Attorney Jin probably doesn’t even know how to write the words ‘go to court!’”

Ma Qiqi’s words really did not leave them with any dignity. Yin s.h.i.+xiong laughed out loud and pulled Ma Qiqi toward him, reprimanding her in a low voice. ” Blindly talking about what truth? Watch the play from the side.”

Jin Wanyi started to look scared. Not only because of the piercing words that Ma Qiqi had said, but also because Yin s.h.i.+xiong was acting like he cared, even though she knew that he didn’t as he looked at her eyes. She couldn’t express the pain it caused her.

After Gu Nianzhi got Ma Qiqi and Yin s.h.i.+xiong’s backing, she grew even more confidence and vigor. She took the initiative to attract Jin Wanyi’s attention. “Attorney Jin, do you have something to say? Do you want to bet? Hitting yourself in the face is quite embarra.s.sing. If you voluntarily give up, I will not look into it.”

“Look into what?” Cai Songyin had been looking on from the side for a long time. She didn’t think of it before, but when she saw Tan Dongbang, Jin Wanyi, and Gu Yanran’s uneasy facial expressions, her heart unexpectedly sunk.

What happened that she didn’t know about?!

At that moment, her mind was replaying every scene from the court. Slowly, a thick and heavy fog started to condense at the bottom of Cai Songyin’s eyes.

“Gu Nianzhi, are you telling the truth?” Seeing that Tan Dongbang and Jin Wanyi didn’t want Gu Nianzhi to speak, Cai Songyin stretched out her hand to stop them. She jutted her chin at Gu Nianzhi, motioning for her to continue speaking.

Gu Nianzhi smiled as she sighed. She used her hand to arrange her hair by her temple and said in an indifferent manner, “Mrs. Tan, I’m a lawyer. To consult a lawyer, the fee is paid by the minute. Also, you would need to sign a non-disclosure agreement. That way, people with high aspirations won’t be able to steal my methods.”

Saying it like that made Jin Wanyi felt a bit guilty. She actually didn’t want to bet with Gu Nianzhi, but she also wanted to hear what kind of methods Gu Nianzhi had. At that moment, she had been singled out by Gu Nianzhi. She practically jumped backward. She looked a bit alarmed and bewildered. She stuttered, “Is there also a charge for consulting about common laws? Gu Nianzhi, you’re really evil!”

“I’m evil?” Gu Nianzhi smiled as she walked toward Jin Wanyi. “The ideas I come up with are worth tens of millions of dollars in the country. You don’t want to spend a penny and yet you want to listen. You also want to use my methods in court, but you accused me of being evil?! Is there any kind of logic in this world? Attorney Jin, no wonder you were the opponent that I defeated a year ago. Turns out, you didn’t use your energy to improve your professional skills. On the contrary, you harbor evil intentions and use the skills you do have on dishonest practices.”

Jin Wanyi’s stomach shrank when she heard that. She didn’t feel good. It was just as Gu Nianzhi had said. She had gone against her original intention of being a lawyer. Jin Wanyi’s eyes rested on Gu Yanran.

When she had defended Cai Songyin, Jin Wanyi had made a list of different defenses and the results they would have. Gu Yanran chose one that could save Tan Dongbang and completely destroy Cai Songyin…Tan Dongbang had been present at that time. He hadn’t said a single thing. It was as if he was implying that he agreed.

She really never thought that Gu Nianzhi could discern this just from watching the courtroom broadcast on T.V.! This young girl really had boundless potential…
