Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As soon as Luo Anning finished speaking, Xu Zhiyuan could clearly sense the two icy cold gazes that were fixed on the back of his head. He turned around fearfully and unsurprisingly, met Rong Yan’s murderous eyes.

An ominous feeling overwhelmed him and he thought, Oh dear, Young Madam has given me and Sis the credit for clearing her name, but she forgot to compliment Young Master Rong, the big boss!

Great, now Young Madam is going to thank me in front of Young Master Rong. Isn’t he going to kill me?

Xu Zhiyuan’s heart wrenched up and he said smilingly, “Young Madam Rong, you’re being too kind. Mengjie and I were just following Young Master Rong’s orders. Young Master Rong was the one who really slogged his guts out for you. On the first day that you got detained, Young Master Rong personally flew to the capital to look for Old Mr. Jiang... ”

“Xu Zhiyuan, shut up!” Rong Yan interjected.

Xu Zhiyuan was again plagued with an ominous feeling, for he knew that he had already incurred Rong Yan’s wrath. Hence, he fell silent quietly and stuck to the principle of silence being gold.

Luo Anning knew what Xu Zhiyuan meant and she was also aware of how much Rong Yan had done for her ever since she got arrested. She was definitely touched by him.

She was not stone-hearted and hence, she would definitely remember it.

She turned to the side and glanced at the handsome and prestigious Rong Yan. She then moved her head towards him and said, “Hubby, thank you for everything that you have done for me.”

She then retracted her head as her ears turned warm and hot. She initially wanted to address him as Rong Yan, but somehow, she involuntarily called him Hubby instead.

Upon hearing her mushy words and her affectionate address, Rong Yan’s heart melted and he pressed a hand against the back of her head to kiss her tender lips.

“You do have some conscience after all.”

After the kiss, Rong Yan knocked his finger against her head. Her face turned red and hot, while her lips turned swollen because of his kiss. Upon hearing his words, Luo Anning rolled her eyes at him.

When they arrived at the courtroom, Luo Anning was taken away by Chen Keming who handcuffed her. Before they left, Rong Yan hugged her and said in an alluring voice, “I’m here with you. You’ll be alright, don’t be scared.”

Moved to tears, Luo Anning wanted to hug him, but she realized that she had been handcuffed. Her eyes turned gloomy and she nodded fervently. “Rong Yan I’m not scared.”

“Okay, go in. I’ll be listening down here.”

...

At nine o’clock sharp in the morning, the court trial for Ou Lixue’s case began.

Luo Xinya, Wang Chan, Li Yang and Luo Anning were handcuffed and forced to sit in the defendants’ benches.

Xu Mengjie was dressed in an immaculate business suit and her usual gold-framed glasses. She sat confidently in the defense counsel’s seat, full of pride. It was no wonder that she was from Baina International.

Upon sight of Luo Anning, she shot Luo Anning a glance, seemingly trying to tell her to relax. She then smiled.

The court order was read out by the clerk before the court trial began. “Everyone, please rise. The judge is here.”

After the judge arrived, the clerk said, “Please be seated.”

The judge looked around and knocked the gavel before saying solemnly, “The trial shall begin now. This is the Supreme Court of S City. Today’s trial will be the case of Ou Lixue falling to her death in Qingxin Hospital. I’ll first have to check the identity of the party. Plaintiff, please state the name of the unit, the legal representative, ... the defendant ... “
