Cheng Fei was still looking at Ning Shu with a gentle gaze. He simply calmly refuted all of Ning Shuās claims.
Ning Shu obviously wanted him to be convicted, but he was still neither impatient nor furious.
He looked at Ning Shu with eyes that were filled with doting affection.
At the same time, sometimes his stare was deep with incomprehensible hidden intentionsā¦.
Ning Shu felt like a small pet baring her teeth and claws in front of Cheng Fei.
Cheng Fei didnāt seem to think that this pet of his could bring him any harm. He didnāt seem concerned at all about her intentions.
Ning Shu lowered her head and stopped talking. She was aware that her evidence was really weak and couldnāt support the sentence at all.
Everything obviously had something to do with Cheng Fei, but she couldnāt prove the links to him.
The trial continued. Ning Shu was beginning to think that Cheng Fei might be released without any punishment.
In the end, though, the efforts of the procuratorate gave Cheng Fei a sentence of five years in prison.
Five years?
That was such a light punishment! Cheng Fei was really too cunning.
When Cheng Fei looked at Ning Shu again, his eyes were shining brightly.
Ning Shu: ā¦
What, was he showing off to her?
Even though Cheng Fei was the one who was going to face five years in prison, it was the people whoād be on the other side of the bars who were worried about it.
As soon as Cheng Fei came out, theyād face the threat of being murdered again.
That was the way the law was.
It could be used to punish someone, but one could always exploit it too.
Just when the presiding judge was about to pronounce the sentence, Cheng Feiās eyes closed and he fell straight to the ground.
A commotion erupted in the courtroom.
The medical staff rushed to help him. They checked his pupils and pressed on his DU-26 acupuncture point to try to help him regain consciousness, but all to no avail.
Almost immediately, he began to foam at the mouth, and his whole body began to convulse uncontrollably.
His symptoms were somewhat like epilepsy.
Hahahaā¦
Ning Shu sneered. So this was what Cheng Fei had been planning.
The police surrounded Cheng Fei, who was still convulsing and carried him into an ambulance. The ambulance then sped off.
Now that the prisoner was in such a state, they naturally had no way to proceed.
Ning Shuās face was as black as the bottom of a pot as she left the court.
Mother Ai was a little puzzled as she asked, āWhat happened to Cheng Fei? I didnāt know he had epilepsy.ā
Professor Ai looked worried. āIs he trying to evade punishment by doing this?ā
As expected, Professor Ai saw things the most clearly.
The trial wouldnāt be continued until Cheng Fei was well enough, and the trial results also wouldnāt be read out until then.
Cheng Feiās predicament might result in his punishment being reduced out of a humanitarian spirit. That was besides the fact that his victimāherāwas still alive, which also worked in his favor.
Pretending to be sick was probably only the beginning, too.
Ning Shu took a deep breath.
Cheng Fei didnāt have any family, but Ning Shu still had Professor Ai and Mother Ai.
She naturally had more things to consider.
Ning Shu didnāt know whatād happen if Cheng Fei went all out.
Professor Ai was having a headache. āIt wonāt benefit anyone if things go on like this. Itās better to settle grievances rather than allow them to pile up, so I think we need to have a proper talk with Cheng Fei.ā
Ning Shu also longed for a peaceful and beautiful world, but was it possible?
āThatās impossible, Dad.ā
With her testimony in court, she had practically thrown stones at Cheng Feiās head while he was at the bottom of a well.
Cheng Fei might have behaved calmly, but that didnāt necessarily mean he truly had no grudge in his heart.
The Ai familyās mood remained very low. Ai Yunās parents were extremely worried. After all, out there was a person who was constantly targeting their daughter and hoping to fossilize her.
They were very anxious right now. Furthermore, due to this incident, they didnāt even have the chance to bring up the matter of the divorce during the court proceedings.
Ning Shu thought for a while, then told Ai Yunās parents to go home without her. She wanted to go to the hospital to see Cheng Feiās current situation.
Professor Ai originally wanted to go with Ning Shu, but Ning Shu told him that sheād be fine, and asked him to go home first with Mother Ai.
