Chapter 1631: Court Opening, Confrontation with Liao Jiamin
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, in a five-star hotel near Wangjing, the sunlight shone through the curtains on my face in the presidential suite on the top floor.

Wu Mingfan yawned lazily and was about to get up when someone hugged his arm tightly. Feeling the soft touch, he lay back down.

He also stretched out his hand and pinched her: "Get up~"

"Don't come...let me sleep for a while~"

Wu Meiwei, who was defeated last night, rubbed her eyes in a daze and lay down in a more comfortable position.

Wu Mingfan was happy and put his arms around her shoulders tightly. Although this silly girl was a little bit not very smart, her body was really smooth.

From the scattered clothes and wrinkled sheets, one can tell how fierce the battle was.

The designer still has some fighting power. Fortunately, Wu Mingfan has been busy with work recently, so this strong man was able to subdue her.

"Yawn~" After yawning, my eyelids slowly closed...

When the two of them finished their breakfast, Wu Meiwei, who was only wearing a white shirt on her upper body, drank the last sip of soy milk. She tilted her head slightly and her white and slender neck could be clearly seen swallowing. The scene made Wu Mingfan almost miss the morning court.

The most ridiculous line in the novels and TV dramas about overbearing CEOs now pops into my mind: "Woman, you are playing with fire."

Take this test, who can withstand it?

"Ah hey hey!" Wu Meiwei, who was controlled, was frightened and finally experienced what it means to play with fire and get burned.

Things must.

Wu Meiwei curled up in his arms like a kitten, closing her eyes and acting coquettishly: "Mingfan, stay with me for a while~"

It was difficult to say no at this time, and Wu Mingfan also enjoyed a moment of warmth.

"it is good!"

The two of them had been in intermittent contact since that incident a few months ago, and in the end it was even Wu Meiwei who took the initiative. It would be a waste not to take advantage of this little cabbage that was delivered to the door.

It's just that their relationship right now is very strange. If you want to say they are boyfriend and girlfriend, it's not yet at that stage.

It is not appropriate to describe it as each taking what they need. Wu Mingfan did not regard the other party as that kind of friend. Anyway, it is a tangled mess.

……

March 23rd, Cy District Intermediate People’s Court, BJ City.

Wu Mingfan is sorting out the documents as the court session is about to begin. This is a divorce case involving a relatively large amount of property.

Normal divorce cases are non-public, and the gallery is basically occupied by family members of both parties.

But this time it is different. Both parties are wealthy and influential. The woman, as a former popular actress, has brought a lot of attention to this case.

The case was heard in public, and the gallery of the Civil Court No. 1 was filled with people, including family members of both parties, stakeholders, fans of the woman, and those who had nothing better to do but come to watch the fun.

However, no matter how many people there are, everyone will be quiet when the court opens. During the court session, only those who are allowed to speak by the collegial panel can speak. Others, even defense lawyers like Wu Mingfan, may be kicked out by bailiffs if they speak without permission.

Lawyers exist to ensure that everyone's legal rights can be better implemented.

According to common sense, the procuratorate, the courts and the legal profession should be three parties with completely different positions, so that the greatest degree of fairness can be achieved in the confrontation.

But nowadays, there are frequent internal transfers in the political and legal system. Today, a person who is the leader of the procuratorate may be transferred to the court tomorrow, and there is frequent communication between various units.

Under such circumstances, it is not so difficult to understand that the procuratorate and the court are in the same boat. This is especially true in a society like China, where relationships are the most important.

And in this environment, lawyers are like outsiders.

Therefore, in domestic court trials, lawyers are actually in a very awkward position. They are far from being as handsome as they are portrayed in film and television works.

Fortunately, a divorce case is essentially a civil case, and both the plaintiff and the defendant are ordinary people, so there is not so much to do.

Wu Mingfan was sorting the materials, waiting for the arrival of the collegial panel. He even had the leisure to chat with the defendant next to him who looked a little nervous. It was estimated that this man who was once lucky in the eyes of the public was also a little nervous facing so many onlookers.

"Lao Wang, don't be nervous and relax~"

Wang Bo, who could definitely be called a handsome middle-aged man, wiped the sweat from his forehead involuntarily. He himself was unsure.

"Lawyer Wu, can we win?"

“I am very confident~”

Wu Mingfan's confident look finally made the person concerned feel a little relieved.

Mainly because he is a gigolo, and facing his wife who used to be a popular star, he has become accustomed to feeling insecure.

Soon the clerk stood up and emphasized court discipline, and the members of the panel entered.

As the gavel fell, the presiding judge announced the official start of the trial.

In fact, in domestic court hearings, the kind of verbal battles seen in TVB’s legal dramas rarely occur, so it’s almost boring.

Not to mention those who came to listen, even the client's defense lawyer Wu Mingfan found the trial quite boring at first.

After the court session began, they just confirmed various information. It was very tedious and there was no need for a lawyer. If it weren't for the large number of media, Wu Mingfan couldn't help yawning. The morning trial passed quickly. There was no chance to speak, and the first court session ended.

Does it feel sloppy?

But it is also the most real!
Wu Mingfan stretched his back. This case involves hundreds of millions of dollars in assets, so it is bound to be a protracted battle. It is basically difficult to get a result in a short period of time, so let's take our time.

It is impossible to end this case quickly with so much money, otherwise it would be too easy to earn the lawyer fees.
The next court session is at 2:30 p.m.

The morning recess is at 11:30. Does it look familiar?
In fact, in the court, the law is the boss and the presiding judge is the second in command. When the law is in a state without an entity, the presiding judge who exercises judicial power is the boss in the court.

The court is his one-man show.

Otherwise, Chen Qingquan, who loves learning foreign languages, would not have said that the explanation clauses were with him.

In fact, that is not an exaggeration at all. Within the scope permitted by law, the court is ruled by the presiding judge.

In the court, the presiding judge is not equal to other people. The presiding judge represents the law and is superior.

Well, I have said so much just to introduce the following sentence.

The court adjourned at half past eleven.

Because it’s time for his old man to have his meal.

If he wants, it can be open for 24 hours and no one inside the court can interfere or stop it. Only people outside the court can intervene.

So, if you want to make money, be a lawyer. If you want to cough, you have to take an exam.

This is the choice that law students face after graduation.

At first, I wanted to take the civil service exam, but unfortunately, I failed the national exam.

Wu Mingfan was just about to take his assistant Zhao Weida out for a quick meal, but as soon as he got outside, he saw the other party's defense attorney Liao Jiamin waiting there.

"Lawyer Wu, can we have a chat?"

"Okay~"

Although you may be an antagonist in court, it’s just work.

"Mingfan, I don't think you have a chance of winning, so just accept the terms of the settlement~"

"The lawsuit hasn't been concluded yet. How does Lawyer Liao know that you will win?"

Wu Mingfan was not willing to be outdone. Compared to the attorney fees earned from the settlement, the money he earned if he won the lawsuit would at least be several times more.

The trial continued in the afternoon.

The plaintiff's lawyer Liao Jiamin spoke first.

"Your Honor, our client can provide sufficient evidence to prove that all the property is Ms. Qi's personal income!"

"According to our investigation, Mr. Wang Bo not only had no income during his marriage, but he also frequently gambled and bought luxury goods, all using Ms. Qi's secondary card!"

"The defendant also had an extramarital affair, so I think it is unfair to Ms. Qi to divide the property equally. I hope the presiding judge can consider it appropriately~"

"What does the defendant have to say?" The presiding judge looked towards the dock!

"I…"

Wu Mingfan acted quickly and stopped the agitated Wang Bo.

"We disagree with the plaintiff's statement. According to Article 1062 of the Civil Code, any property generated during the marriage shall be considered as common property of the husband and wife!"

"The evidence chain of the plaintiff's description of my extramarital affair is not complete at all, and is not enough to prove that Mr. Wang actually engaged in actual behavior~"

"According to our investigation, their marriage was not public, but Ms. Qi, under the arrangement of her agency, was in a relationship with a male star in order to promote her new drama..."

At this time, in the plaintiff's seat, the female star named Qi, who was wearing sunglasses, suddenly became agitated when she heard this.

"The agency's arrangement has nothing to do with me. All the money is earned by me. Using my money to seduce women, damn..."

"Bang!" Along with the fall of the gavel, the majestic voice of the presiding judge sounded again.

"Please calm down, Plaintiff!"

"Don't be impulsive, there is still a chance~" Liao Jiamin on the side reminded in a low voice.

"Judge, we request to submit evidence!"

"Permission to submit evidence~"

At this moment, the small courtroom became a battlefield between Wu Mingfan and Liao Jiamin. Only at this moment did it feel a bit like a court in a TV drama, and the verbal confrontation was merciless.

To be continued...
