2494 Provoking

Aunt Yu was bold. She echoed, “We don’t accept it either. Sun Ying has been bullying Ye Jian since she was young. How can this matter end with just an apology? She should at least pay some compensation. What about the damage to Ye Jian’s reputation?”

“She can forget about staying in the village in the future. She’s a disgrace. She’ll cause us to be criticized by others who learn of this case!”

Sun Ying’s face turned pale when she heard these voices. She shrank her shoulders and held onto the gate with both hands to support her weak body.

Her eyes were filled with horror. She looked at the students who were protesting, then at Ye Jian. After that, her gaze landed on the judge… No, she couldn’t wait for death. She had to think of a way.

The solemn courtroom suddenly became noisy.

Sun Dongqing flew into a rage. The young people were voicing their objections, and the villagers even said that they wouldn’t allow her daughter to return to the village. All of them wanted her daughter to continue suffering. She couldn’t take it anymore and scolded them, “Who do you think you are? What right do you have to say that about my daughter? You…”

She wanted to continue scolding them, but the presiding judge raised the gavel and knocked it three times. “Silence, silence!” Then, he said to the bailiff, “Take her away.”

Sun Dongqing was not allowed to listen anymore.

Sun Dongqing, who finally felt at ease after hearing the results, was on tenterhooks again. The bailiff escorted her away. She immediately struggled and resisted. “No, I’m not leaving. I want to hear the results! I’m Sun Ying’s mother. I have the right to listen!”

“You’ve disrupted the order of the court. Take her away!” The presiding judge slammed the gavel in his hand. The bailiff showed no mercy and dragged Sun Dongqing away from the scene like a dead pig.

Ye Zhifan was furious just a moment ago. When he saw this, he smiled coldly.

If Sun Dongqing endangered the safety of the court or disturbed the order of the court, she would be fined and detained according to the relevant laws. If it constituted a crime, she would be investigated for criminal responsibility according to the law. Unfortunately, Sun Dongqing, this useless person, didn’t manage to break free from the bailiff. If not, she would have been in deeper trouble.

Sun Dongqing was forcefully dragged away. The entire court fell silent. Then, the court was temporarily adjourned.

The presiding judge was talking to the juror in detail. In the audience seats, Ye Jian was talking to her former classmates.

After everything quieted down, the court was temporarily adjourned.

Ye Jian smiled at her former classmates who were furious when they discovered the truth. “Thank you for protecting me. As long as you believe me, that’s enough. It doesn’t matter if Sun Ying really repented or not. If the truth is known by the world, I have nothing to complain about.

“She has indeed been punished. We have to believe that the verdict will be fair and just. I know that everyone is furious and willing to stand up for me, but they’ve already made it clear that Sun Ying’s crime is just slander…”

They felt indignant for Ye Jian and angry that they were deceived.

With Ye Jian’s persuasion, the voices gradually weakened.

“Are you really going to forgive her just like that? Ye Jian, look at what she’s done. She’s despicable! Although she didn’t cause any physical harm, sometimes, psychological damage is deeper than visible damage.”

Zhang Na pursed her lips and said in a low and cold voice, “Now that we can teach her a lesson, we should let her learn it. Look at how she acted just now. How was that an apology? She was clearly… provoking you.”

Even if Sun Ying had the guts to provoke, she was still a grasshopper in autumn. She wouldn’t be able to jump for long.
