Yuan Yongwen was sure that he did not see wrongly. He had seen the judge in the middle of the room just now. He was chatting with Li Huailin just now. How could a judge chat with the plaintiff before a court session? No matter what the other party talked about, it was definitely not good for him.
Not only Yuan Yongwen, but Yuan Kexian and Zhang Xuebing also noticed it. Both of them were shocked. Yuan Kexian immediately said, "Dad, wasn't this guy in the lounge just now …"
"Well, let's wait and see." Yuan Yongwen knew that he had probably been tricked, but there was no other way. It was useless to say anything now.
"Okay, now we will hear case D198F-49, which is the contract dispute case between Li Huailin and Shanghai Yuan's Holding Group, Yuan Yongwen, and Yuan Kexian." The judge in the middle hit the gavel and said, "Please be quiet. The plaintiff's lawyer, please read the lawsuit first."
"Okay," Hu Shanping stood up and said, "On behalf of my client, Mr. Li Huailin …"
Hu Shanping immediately read the lawsuit. Of course, this lawsuit was written by Hu Shanping just now. Because of time constraints, he basically didn't have time to revise it. But it didn't matter. Anyway, it was accepted. The lawsuit was not long. Anyway, it only had one topic. You owe money, pay it back as soon as possible.
After waiting for Hu Shanping to finish reading, the judge nodded slightly and then asked Yuan Yongwen, "Defendant, do you have any objections to the content of the plaintiff's lawsuit?"
"Your Honor." Zhang Xuebing immediately stood up. "I am the defendant's lawyer, Zhang Xuebing. As for the plaintiff's lawsuit, I completely deny it on behalf of the client. We have no debt relationship with the plaintiff at all. The other party is purely unreasonable and in contempt of court."
"The defendant says that there is no debt relationship. What evidence does the plaintiff have to prove it?" The judge turned around and asked.
"Objection!" Suddenly, Li Huailin stood up and slammed the table, which startled everyone. The judge was also stunned and then asked, "Uh … Plaintiff, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't shout so loudly, okay?"
"Can't I f * cking shout?" Li Huailin asked.
"Uh … whatever." The judge was a little speechless. "What objection does the plaintiff have?"
Li Huailin waved his hand and said, "That guy over there made a bet with me. He said that the loser would give his family's assets to the other party. What proof is there? My words are so trustworthy that there is no need for proof, right?"
"…" Zhang Xuebing was speechless. What kind of situation was this? What kind of answer was that? Brother, you must be mistaken. This is the court. This is a place where evidence is needed. What's the use of just saying that your words are credible? Where's your evidence?
Unexpectedly, the judge nodded. "Hmm … that makes sense."
"Hey, Your Honor, how is that reasonable?" Zhang Xuebing said with an inexplicable look on his face, "The plaintiff is being unreasonable. There's no evidence at all. How can we believe what he said?"
"Hey, grandson, you were so arrogant when you made the bet with me. Now you don't even dare to admit it?" Li Huailin said to Yuan Kexian with a smile.
"You f * cking …" Yuan Kexian just wanted to speak, but he was held down by Yuan Yongwen next to him. Yuan Kexian stared at Li Huailin and sat down.
"Your Honor, in short, the other party can't produce evidence of a debt relationship with us at all. I think the other party is simply being unreasonable in this case." Zhang Xuebing said immediately.
"Who said that we can't produce evidence? We have it." While they were talking, the lawyer next to them, Hu Shanping, suddenly said.
"Huh?" Everyone was surprised.
"You have it?" Zhang Xuebing asked in surprise. Then, he looked at Yuan Kexian behind him. Yuan Yongwen also looked at his son and asked with his eyes, "Do you really have it?" Did you really sign any contract?
"Dad, I didn't sign it." Yuan Kexian immediately said, "I really didn't sign anything."
"What evidence do you have? Show me." Zhang Xuebing also believed Yuan Kexian for the time being, so he immediately said to the other party.
"Huh? Do we have it? " Li Huailin also had the same reaction. Yes, even Li Huailin didn't think there was such a thing at all. Did I really have a verbal agreement with the other party? There wasn't even a video. A contract? It must be a lie.
"Oh, Young Master Li, wait." Hu Shanping said while playing on the computer. He took out a document from the instant printer next to him and handed a pen to Li Huailin, "Young Master Li, please sign here for me."
"Oh." Li Huailin was really not worried that someone would cheat him. Anyway, he signed it.
Seeing that Li Huailin had signed, Hu Shanping directly picked up the document and said, "Your Honor, this is the contract signed by my client and the defendant at that time. I will now submit it as evidence."
"Hey, this is too f * cking fake." Zhang Xuebing couldn't help but curse. "This was obviously printed out by him just now, and the signature was just signed. How can this be submitted as evidence?"
Hu Shanping's actions were not done in private at all. Everyone watched Hu Shanping print out the document and watched Li Huailin sign it. This is too exaggerated.
"Defense lawyer, silence in the court." The judge said calmly, "Since the other party has submitted the evidence, of course, we have to see it. Come, let me see it."
"I …" Zhang Xuebing was speechless. Is this even possible?
The judge really took the evidence and looked at it. Then, he passed it around a little, nodded and said, "Well, it seems that the plaintiff and the defendant really have a debt dispute."
"I object. I didn't sign this thing at all!" Yuan Kexian stood up immediately.
"But your signature is on it." The judge directly showed the contract in his hand and said.
"This … this is impossible." Yuan Kexian said immediately.
"Yes, Your Honor, please let my client see it." Zhang Xuebing also said immediately.
"Oh, then you guys take a look." The judge directly gave the document to Zhang Xuebing. The three of them came over and looked at it. This contract was indeed a normal contract, but the signature was definitely not Yuan Kexian's signature. Yuan Kexian didn't need to say this because his father, Yuan Yongwen, could see it.
"Your Honor, this is really not my client's signature. I suspect that the plaintiff forged the evidence!" Zhang Xuebing said immediately.
"It's useless to suspect. What evidence do you have to prove that I forged the evidence?" Hu Shanping said immediately. Then, he looked at the judge and said, "Your Honor, I have a firm handwriting here. It can prove that this document was signed by Yuan Kexian himself."
Then, Hu Shanping took out another document. No one knew where he took it out from. It was probably just printed. Soon, this thing was submitted again. The judge looked at it and nodded repeatedly. "Well, well … It looks like it was signed by him."
"Nonsense. Don't go overboard." Yuan Yongwen also stood up. This was simply messing around.
"Silence. If the defendant continues to be unreasonable, I will drive you out of the court." The judge immediately said.
"I'm unreasonable?" Yuan Yongwen was dumbfounded. Just as he was about to speak, Zhang Xuebing stopped him. "Chairman, this is the other party's strategy. They want to drive us out."
"…" Yuan Yongwen thought about it and sat down.
The judge completely ignored it and continued, "Since there is a debt relationship between the two parties, why doesn't the defendant pay the debt?"
"Your Honor, the plaintiff also said that the two parties made a verbal bet. Even if there is a contract, this is a contract of luck. According to Article 7 of the General Principles of the Civil Law, civil activities should respect social morality. They must not harm the social public interest, destroy the national economic plan, or disrupt the social economic order. Article 58, civil juristic acts that violate the law or the social public interest are invalid. Even if this contract is true, there is no legal effect. "Zhang Xuebing said immediately.
"I don't see any harm to the public interest." Hu Shanping spread his hands and said, "This contract is reasonable and legal. My client is recovering the debt he won. What's there to doubt?"
"Yeah, is there a law that says you don't have to pay me back the money you owe me?" Li Huailin said, "Why do you have to do so much? You, hurry up and judge."
"Well, what the plaintiff said is very reasonable." The judge nodded. "Then …"
"Wait, Your Honor, even if this is the case, what does it have to do with Yuan's Group? The agreement between the two parties is about personal property. Even if it is true, it should be my client who hands over his personal property, "Zhang Xuebing said immediately.
"You poor man, your personal property is only seven or eight hundred million yuan. I don't care about it at all. Anyway, your money is given by your father. It's better to ask him to give more and then let him judge it to me. Isn't it the same? Can't you figure it out?" Li Huailin said.
"Hey, Your Honor, is this also possible?" Zhang Xuebing pointed to Li Huailin and said.
"I think what the plaintiff said is very reasonable," the judge said immediately.
"F * ck …" Zhang Xuebing couldn't help but curse. But before he could, Yuan Yongping suddenly stood up and said, "Your Honor, I request an adjournment."
Zhang Xuebing also realized that something was wrong. He quickly adjourned the court because even the simplest procedure would take three days. He had to go back and think of a solution first, so he said, "Your Honor, I also request for an adjournment."
"Huh? Adjournment? I don't have time for that. I have to rush home later. You over there, hurry up, "Li Huailin said immediately.
"Yes, Your Honor, I think this case is very clear. We can pronounce the verdict in court," Hu Shanping said.
"Mm." The judge nodded again. "That makes sense. The case is very clear. Let's take a ten-minute break and then pronounce the verdict in court."
