With all plaintiffs and defendants present, the court is about to begin!
The court recorder stood up and began to read out the court’s rules.
After the court’s rules were read aloud.
The recorder spoke: "Please, the presiding judge and judges, enter the courtroom."
At the sound of the words, the entire courtroom stood up.
All three judges entered the courtroom.
From left to right, the judges are Wen Guangyin, Li Baochang, and Ying Xuecai.
Presiding Judge Li Kang stood in the center of the judge’s bench and struck the gavel.
"Everyone, please be seated!"
The entire courtroom sat down.
Presiding Judge Li Kang surveyed the room and declared, "The court is now in session!"
Li Kang struck the gavel again.
The atmosphere in the courtroom was extrely solemn.
Presiding Judge Li Kang stated, "Now verifying the identities of the litigants."
"Plaintiff’s personnel identities: plaintiff Liu Xiaonian, plaintiff’s lawyer Gu Chen."
"Now, will the plaintiff’s side please state the case and the lawsuit application."
All eyes turned to Gu Chen.
Wangzhu looked at Gu Chen, appearing completely unfazed.
What lawless madman, she was the victim here.
Gu Chen, as the plaintiff’s lawyer, proactively spoke: "The case is very simple. My client Liu Xiaonian’s brother, Liu Jun, was in a relationship with the defendant Wangzhu for a total of two years and three months. During this period, Wangzhu asked for a total of 630,000 yuan from Liu Jun. Later, Wangzhu chose to break up, and Liu Jun chose to jump to his death in a river. This case has drawn a lot of attention and concern."
"Therefore, my client Liu Xiaonian has decided to formally sue Wangzhu, demanding the return of the full amount asked for during their relationship, totaling 630,000 yuan. Given there has been one offline diation where Wangzhu returned 100,000 yuan, we are now formally demanding that Wangzhu return the remaining 530,000 yuan."
"We believe that during the relationship, Wangzhu engaged in fraudulent and other behaviors against Liu Jun, and Liu Jun’s death is directly related to Wangzhu. Therefore, we also seek to hold Wangzhu criminally responsible."
"Additionally, we demand that the defendant bear all our legal expenses."
Gu Chen finished speaking.
The online viewers were quite excited.
[Here it cos, here it cos! Haha, they’re going to pursue criminal responsibility for Wangzhu!]
[It’s really Lawyer Gu! Lawyer Gu is aweso! They should pursue criminal responsibility for Wangzhu!]
[Let Wangzhu be sentenced! She must be sentenced!]
[Familiar Lawyer Gu is here! But Lawyer Gu hasn’t stated how many years for Wangzhu yet.]
Wangzhu: "????"
Wangzhu didn’t expect Gu Chen to be so arrogant right from the start.
To even pursue her criminal responsibility?
It was already nice of her not to pursue Liu Xiaonian’s criminal responsibility!
Wangzhu looked toward her own lawyer, Zhao Bingqi.
Zhao Bingqi spoke: "May I ask Lawyer Gu Chen, what cri did my client Wangzhu commit? What type of criminal responsibility are you planning to pursue for Wangzhu? Indeed, during their relationship, Wangzhu received a total of 630,000 yuan from Liu Jun, but this was all willingly given by Liu Jun. Liu Jun’s jumping into the river has nothing to do with Wangzhu, right?"
Gu Chen replied: "May I ask the opposing lawyer, are you Liu Jun himself? How do you know all the money was willingly given by Liu Jun? Did Liu Jun personally tell you? Or did he write ’willingly gifted’ on every transaction? I assud the opposing lawyer is a professional, and that what he says would require evidence. You co up without evidence and start concocting stories? Who told you Liu Jun’s river jump had nothing to do with Wangzhu? If it wasn’t for Wangzhu financially manipulating him and then wanting to break up, would Liu Jun have chosen to jump into the river? You say it’s unconnected? Then why did Liu Jun jump?"
Gu Chen started speaking very aggressively.
Zhao Bingqi sneered and said: "Presiding Judge, I protest! I believe the plaintiff’s lawyer is engaging in personal attacks! I request that the plaintiff’s lawyer imdiately leave the courtroom! Prohibit the plaintiff’s lawyer from defending the plaintiff!"
Zhao Bingqi didn’t care what kind of lawless madman Gu Chen was, handling this lawsuit was all he needed!
Everything must be according to the law, and would he be afraid of an intern lawyer?
Even though Gu Chen opened a law firm, he was just an intern, having handled four lawsuits, all of which were to gain fa. To Zhao Bingqi, there wasn’t much skill involved.
For him to turn from an intern lawyer to a full-fledged lawyer, at least five cases needed to be handled!
These days, just because lawyers are a bit hyped, do they really think they can reign supre in the legal world?
If he could win a case head-on against Gu Chen, wouldn’t his fa rise?
[66666666666!]
[Lawyer Zhao is truly fearless, confronting a lawless madman, aren’t you really afraid of being sent away?]
[Indeed...hahaha, Lawyer Zhao has so skill, daring to confront a lawless madman!]
[Is Zhao Bingqi really not afraid of being sent away?]
[Hahahaha, it’s been a long ti since anyone dared to confront Lawyer Gu like this, previous lawyers who went against the lawless madman all fled.]
Presiding Judge Li Kang struck the gavel.
Li Kang stated: "Lawyer Gu Chen is not engaging in personal attacks, this is a court of law, and evidence must be respected. The defendant’s lawyer is warned for maliciously protesting; if it occurs more than three tis, expulsion from this court will follow!"
Zhao Bingqi: "..."
Li Kang was no fool.
Li Kang rembered clearly, Gu Chen’s first case was right here.
In one case, Gu Chen got the opposing lawyer and Judge Li Yongxia sent away on the spot.
And now Gu Chen was here handling a case again!
Li Kang wasn’t afraid because he himself was upright, but everyone needed to give Gu Chen so face, especially as Gu Chen did not engage in personal attacks.
Gu Chen submitted the materials.
Gu Chen stated: "These are all the transfer records, red envelopes, and all docunts over two years and three months showing the total amount Liu Jun transferred to Wangzhu is 633,482 yuan."
"The two individuals did not form a factual marriage, nor does any property division exist, and all these funds are Liu Jun’s individual premarital property. The defendant Wangzhu is requested to return the remaining 533,482 yuan imdiately, not a cent less."
Gu Chen had just finished submitting the materials.
The defendant’s lawyer, Zhao Bingqi, spoke: "Presiding Judge, we believe not everything should be returned, as these were normal expenditures during the dating period between Wangzhu and Liu Jun. Moreover, 150,000 yuan had special significance in the transfers, such as 520, 1314, these amounts are believed to be willingly gifted with special aning and should belong to Wangzhu; these should not be returned."
"Furthermore, 288,000 yuan was labeled as ’willingly gifted’ by Liu Jun when given, indicating willing gifts, thus, Wangzhu should not be required to return this either."
"Therefore, the portion not to be returned includes 438,000 yuan, aning my client Wangzhu shouldn’t and couldn’t return all the funds."
"Regarding the remaining 95,482 yuan, 90,000 of which was willingly given by Liu Jun to Wangzhu, covering living expenses, daily expenditures, and purchases of clothing, living supplies, and bags for Wangzhu."
"So, my client can only return 5,482 yuan."
