Believing Her

Excuse me?

The evidence was irrefutable. She still dared to plead not guilty?

She really dared to say so.

If it wasn't for the fact that this was her first time in court and she had to pay attention to her image and etiquette, Gu Nianzhi really wanted to roll her eyes in public.

The judge and the jury in the courtroom also heard Jin Wanyi's plea.

They frowned as they looked at the file in their hands, gavelled and said, "Defense lawyer, are you sure you want to plead not guilty?"

"Yes, Your Honor," Jin Wanyi replied in a steady voice. She did not even look at Gu Nianzhi.

The judge continued to ask, "So you're denying all of the plaintiff's charges?"

"Yes, Your Honor." Jin Wanyi nodded again and said in detail, "Your Honor, my client did not violently kidnap the plaintiff eight years ago, so I'm pleading not guilty on their behalf."
