Guo Huining's face was haggard.
After more than two months in prison, she looked extremely dispirited.
In the past, she always had a fluffy perm to show that she had plenty of hair. Now that she hadn't had a perm for a long time, her hairline was very obvious.
Yi Xinyan and Dou Aiyan, on the other hand, looked fresh and beautiful.
Both of them were dressed appropriately in custom-made suits.
Yi Xinyan was a fan of Morandi powder with a very light layer of grey. She used matte lipstick and her eyes were a little cold, but she still had a smile on her lips.
Dou Aiyan maintained her fairy-like persona. She wore a very distinctive sky-blue Marchesa winter dress with tiny blue flowers that looked just like the real thing.
These two beauties, each with their own style, sat opposite Guo Huining, making Guo Huining look ten years older.
Guo Huining's eyes showed a hint of joy when she saw them come in, but after seeing their clothes, her eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger.
She pursed her lips and looked at them without saying a word.
Dou Aiyan thought Guo Huining would be grateful to them, but Guo Huining looked at them without saying a word, and the look in her eyes wasn't as kind as she expected.
Dou Aiyan frowned and said unhappily, "Huining, what's wrong? Who made you unhappy? "
Guo Huining clenched her fists tightly on the table, desperately trying to control herself to suppress the displeasure in her heart.
She twitched the corners of her mouth and forced a smile, "It's nothing, I'm happy to see you guys today."
Dou Aiyan curled her lips in disdain, "Huining, why aren't you telling us the truth? Do you know how good we are to you? Your own parents and family don't care about you, we're the ones who hired a lawyer for you! "
Guo Huining's expression darkened even more.
Yi Xinyan stopped Dou Aiyan and said softly, "Aiyan, Huining is in a bad mood right now, you have to understand her."
Her voice was a little hoarse, but it had an indescribable mature charm to it. Her Imperial accent was perfect, and if it wasn't for the fact that there wasn't a trace of accent in her voice, people would think that she was born and raised in the Imperial Capital.
Guo Huining had always admired Yi Xinyan, and now that she had taken the initiative to help her and was better at talking than Dou Aiyan, she felt a little better.
Guo Huining nodded at Yi Xinyan and said softly, "Thank you, Miss Yi. I will always remember those who help me. "
Yi Xinyan gave a faint smile.
Dou Aiyan was a little unhappy that Guo Huining was favoring one over the other, but she still braced herself and said, "Huining, we came to see you today to discuss your case."
"… Discuss the case with me? Shouldn't it be up to the lawyers to discuss this? Didn't you say you hired a lawyer for me? Are they also from America? "Guo Huining asked eagerly.
"No. You're Chinese, so it's not good for you to use an American lawyer. " Yi Xinyan explained patiently. Her eyes were calm as she said calmly, "So the lawyer we found for you is Jin Wanyi, a senior lawyer from the largest law firm in the country."
Guo Huining raised her eyebrows and said bluntly, "I've never heard of this person. Are you sure she can argue with Gu Nianzhi? "
Guo Huining had read about Gu Nianzhi's lawsuit against Kevin's American team of lawyers in the newspaper.
She was afraid of Gu Nianzhi.
But she also felt a deep sense of disdain.
She knew it was a morbid contradiction, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Yi Xinyan smiled and leaned back in her chair. She said lazily, "Why does she have to argue with Gu Nianzhi? Is that necessary? "
"Of course it's necessary." Guo Huining was agitated. She sat up straight and slammed her fist on the table, "You guys don't know how sly Gu Nianzhi is! Even those famous American lawyers are no match for her! If you're going to find someone to defend me, I might as well defend myself! "
She was also a top student from the most famous B University Law School in the Imperial Capital. Although she had never been a defense lawyer, she was definitely better than Jin Wanyi, a lawyer she had never heard of before.
Dou Aiyan rolled her eyes, "Don't think too highly of yourself. The prosecution didn't even ask Gu Nianzhi to be their defense lawyer. What are you worried about?"
Guo Huining was shocked, "The prosecution didn't ask Gu Nianzhi to be their defense lawyer?!"
"Yes, because the prosecution doesn't think you have enough weight as a defendant. They don't need Gu Nianzhi to appear in court to deal with you." Dou Aiyan said harshly.
Guo Huining was so angry she almost fell over.
Yi Xinyan curled her lips and explained, "Lawyer Jin Wanyi is not an ordinary lawyer. She has also won many well-known cases. Her winning rate is 99%."
Guo Huining sneered, "There's still a 1% losing case? Who did she lose to? "
The only person Jin Wanyi had ever lost to was Gu Nianzhi.
Yi Xinyan laughed dryly, "I didn't investigate that, but her winning rate is 99%. In my opinion, it's almost 100%. The point is that she has never lost to other lawyers. "
Guo Huining caught the flaw in her words and said, "So Jin Wanyi has fought against Gu Nianzhi? And she lost the case? Is that what you mean? "
"Haha, Huining, you're too sharp." Yi Xinyan laughed and continued, "The reason we came here today is to ask you if you have any requests. You know, there are always winners and losers in a lawsuit. Although Jin Wanyi is also very good, we can't be sure she will win. "
Dou Aiyan continued, "But the chances of winning are still very high. As far as I know, the person the prosecution is looking for is a lawyer working in the Cabinet Justice Department. This person hasn't fought many cases outside, so it will be easy for Jin Wanyi to win against him. " "I see …" Guo Huining breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that there were benefits to being looked down on by the other party.
Otherwise, if they really sent Gu Nianzhi, she would be in trouble.
Guo Huining looked down and thought for a moment, then said, "I hope to meet with the lawyer you hired. I request to plead not guilty. I'm also a victim. I was used. When Kevin used me as a shield, they saw it with their own eyes. "
Yi Xinyan leaned forward and placed one arm on the table in front of her. She said slowly, "… But Song Jinning has evidence of you sending her messages and photos. She accuses you of working with Kevin to trick her away."
Guo Huining's face flushed and she stammered, "I didn't! That photo was of Gu Nianzhi! I only sent it to Song Jinning to remind her! What did I do wrong?! And then I was drugged and passed out, so I didn't know anything. When I woke up, I was already in Kevin's hands and being held hostage! "
From this point of view, Guo Huining could indeed get away with it.
As long as Jin Wanyi could prove that Guo Huining didn't know about Kevin's plan and didn't conspire with him, then she would be a victim and not an accomplice.
