Chapter 2130 - Just Said a Few Bad Words (2/2)

Xia Yixin was brought into the interrogation room.

Indeed, she listened to Cen Mengqing. No matter what the police asked, she refused to speak, insisting to wait until her lawyer was here.

Not long after, the lawyer hurriedly arrived.

He first spoke a few words with Xia Yixin privately.

When the lawyer questioned her, Xia Yixin could only speak honestly. She had to cooperate with the lawyer so that the lawyer could think of ways to settle this matter amicably. “I was the one who did that. I was the one who told that middle-aged woman to go and find trouble with Shi Xiaoya, to purposely say that Shi Xiaoya had been a mistress kept by her husband before.

“In fact, that middle-aged woman is just a normal woman from the street. When I saw her, she was quarreling with someone very fiercely. So I looked for her, gave her some money, and asked her to go and find trouble with Shi Xiaoya. I wanted her to just berate Shi Xiaoya for being a mistress and things like that.”

Xia Yixin minced her lips and said, “Is this matter so serious? To the point of slander?

“It’s just saying a few bad words and smearing her reputation a little, isn’t it? So many people spread rumors here and there online, but I don’t see anything happening to those people.”

The lawyer felt really tired in his heart and thought to himself, why did Xia Zhancheng have such a brainless daughter?

“You go online every day, but don’t you know that spreading rumors can also get you charged? If the number of shares cross 500 on Weibo, you can be charged for it already.” The lawyer felt that if he said it too professionally, Xia Yixin would not understand, so he just raised such an example.

Xia Yixin then panicked. “If it’s slander, how will the sentence be like?”

“Less than three years,” the lawyer said.

Xia Yixin’s heart instantly skipped a beat. “It’s so serious? I… I never thought that it will be so serious! This… Isn’t it just talking bad about other people? I just said a few bad things about them, and she wants to sue me?”

“Who could have guessed that this time, they’d want to pursue the matter with you?” the lawyer said. “The main point is, the police has a witness. The middle-aged woman you looked for had already become the police’s witness. How else did you think the police found the clues to catch you?”

“Then what now?” Xia Yixin asked anxiously. “You have to help me, to make sure nothing happens to me! You can’t let me go to jail!”

The lawyer did not feel confident at all.

After all, although the person who wanted to sue her was Shi Xiaoya, who was Shi Xiaoya’s backer?
