Bai Jinyi's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Song Jinning's tone and demeanor were completely different from the way she had been for the past 16 years. It was like … like a normal person!
How was that possible?!
Bai Jinyi looked at Song Jinning suspiciously and asked tentatively, "Jinning, what's wrong? Are you having a relapse again? "
"You couldn't cure me for 16 years, but that doesn't mean no one else can." Song Jinning smiled gracefully, standing in front of Bai Jinyi as if they were two generations apart.
Bai Jinyi's expression changed immediately, "Who? Who took care of your illness without the approval of the military and the Ministry of Science and Technology?! That's illegal! "
"Physicist Bai, you should think about how many laws you've broken." Gu Nianzhi walked to Song Jinning's side and took her arm to face Bai Jinyi together, "The court summons will be sent to your house after the New Year. Please don't run around, it'll be a national fugitive, and the Bai family will be embarrassed."
Gu Nianzhi's words were a combination of carrot and stick. She refuted Bai Jinyi's claims and warned the Bai family not to protect Bai Jinyi …
Bai Yueran narrowed her eyes and looked Gu Nianzhi in the eye for the first time.
Bai Jiancheng and Bai Changhui stood side by side, their expressions gradually turning serious when they saw General Ji and Speaker Long approaching.
"What laws did I break?" Bai Jinyi snapped out of her daze, hating the girl who had embarrassed her today. "Don't slander me."
"I never make unfounded accusations. I always have evidence to back up my words." Gu Nianzhi shrugged and continued to attack Bai Jinyi's confidence, "Actually, Physicist Bai, when you officially became General Huo's girlfriend ten years ago, you shouldn't have been Madam Song's psychiatrist anymore, because your position was not fair, and you needed to avoid suspicion. But you didn't, you kept making up the numbers, and delayed Madam Song's easily treatable illness for 16 years. Since then, you've broken the law. Not only did you violate the professional ethics of a psychiatrist, but you also violated the military's principles of fairness and impartiality. I'd like to ask you, what's your purpose in doing this? If you're not doing this for General Huo, then who are you doing it for? "
Bai Jinyi's heart skipped a beat. Her palms were sweating. She clenched her fists tightly and bit her lower lip so hard that it almost bled.
Song Jinning looked at Bai Jinyi indifferently, her voice devoid of any emotion. "Bai Jinyi, since you said yourself that the man you love is Huo Guanyuan, I won't say anything else. I'm sure you still remember how many times you begged me to help you and Huo Guanyuan back then. After Huo Guanyuan got married, you still refused to stop and continued to beg me to make things easier for you, but I refused. Did you hate me from that moment on? Otherwise, I really can't think of any reason why you would treat me like this. "
"Haha, of course I remember. I also remember that you used me to get close to Huo Guanyuan and made him fall head over heels for you …" A sinister smile appeared on Bai Jinyi's face. "You didn't know, did you? Ms. Song? Your eldest uncle, your husband's eldest brother, loves you dearly! I even call out your name in my dreams! "
Song Jinning had never heard such a disgusting thing. She couldn't help but snap, "Shameless! You dare to spout nonsense like this only because Huo Guanyuan is dead and can't defend himself! "
Gu Nianzhi sighed inwardly. Song Jinning was too ladylike to argue with someone as shameless as Bai Jinyi. Gu Nianzhi pushed Song Jinning's arm, signaling her not to get angry. She said calmly to Bai Jinyi, "Physicist Bai, what you just said is legally called subjective speculation. There is no factual evidence to support your argument. Psychologically, what you just said is called a distortion of reality caused by deep sexual fantasies. Your obsession with Huo Guanyuan has already caused you to lose your ability to judge. You're treating subjective speculation as objective reality, and you're forcing it on others … "
Before Gu Nianzhi could finish, Bai Changhui suddenly walked over and said, "So my sister is mentally ill. Ah, how pitiful. So that's why … Jinyi, I was wrong about you …"
Gu Nianzhi raised an eyebrow. Bai Changhui was trying to use "mental illness" to get Bai Jinyi off the hook!
If Bai Changhui was allowed to take Bai Jinyi away so easily, Gu Nianzhi didn't think she would be able to stay in the legal profession anymore.
She shook her head, "Mr. Bai, mental illness isn't defined that way. Please don't change the subject and try to get Physicist Bai off the hook."
"Didn't you just say that my sister is mentally ill? Why are you saying I'm wrong now?" Bai Changhui turned to look at Gu Nianzhi, his eyes devoid of emotion.
"I didn't say a single word about Physicist Bai being mentally ill. Mr. Bai, I heard that you're the Deputy Secretary General of the Secretariat of the Administration Department. I can only assume that you're too concerned about Physicist Bai to say something like that. It's understandable. "Gu Nianzhi had almost said that Bai Changhui was incompetent at his job, and that he was relying on the Bai family's status.
Bai Changhui didn't take it to heart. He nodded, "It looks like Miss Gu is very clear about the definition of mental illness."
"The definition of mental illness should be determined by a professional," Gu Nianzhi said without hesitation. "As for Physicist Bai, her symptoms really aren't mental illness. It's a different kind of illness."
"What kind of illness?"
"Retard, or maybe you could call it a love-struck fool."
Pfft!
The living room was filled with laughter. Even General Ji and Speaker Long, who had just walked over, couldn't help but smile.
"How dare you insult me!" Bai Changhui stomped his foot in anger, "I'll sue you for slander!"
"You think you can sue me for slander? What Physicist Bai just said is enough for Madam Song and Huo Guanyuan's family to sue her for slander a hundred times over! " Gu Nianzhi spread her hands and continued, "If Physicist Bai is mentally ill, then how could she interfere with Madam Song and General Huo's marriage, cause them to divorce, and steal Madam Song's husband to be her boyfriend and fiancé? I've never heard of a mental illness like that. "She turned to look at the others," Have any of you ever seen a mental illness like her? "
Although no one in the living room actually responded, everyone's expressions made their stance clear.
Everyone would believe it if they said that Bai Jinyi had gone crazy chasing after a man.
But to say that she was mentally ill was to take everyone for fools, especially the Huo family.
Song Jinning looked at Bai Jinyi coldly, her tone full of disdain, "Even now, you still haven't forgotten to smear someone else's name. That's right, people like you are the best at making something out of nothing. How many times did you tamper with the data for the sake of the article? When you were questioned and rejected by pRL, I stayed up for days and nights to help you reconstruct the experiment and get the correct data. That's how you got the article. You've forgotten all that, haven't you? "
"That's what it means to be grateful, but to be hated," Gu Nianzhi continued to summarize. "Physicist Bai is so narrow-minded that she couldn't catch up to Madam Song no matter how hard she tried. So when Madam Song fell into trouble and fell into her hands, it would be strange if she didn't trample on her."
Bai Jinyi's proudest academic reputation had been blatantly ripped apart by Song Jinning.
She clutched her chest, feeling like her heart was about to jump out of her throat, "You're lying! That's not true! I'm going to sue you! I'm definitely going to sue you! "
"Although the rejection letter and inquiry letter were lost in the explosion of the laboratory building, don't forget that pRL has the original copies. They'll find out as soon as they send someone to check. I even remember the journal number and the year, month and date. "Song Jinning raised her eyebrows and exuded an aura that crushed Bai Jinyi.
"Bai Jinyi, you can't go around tarnishing Huo Guanyuan's reputation just because he doesn't like you. He's a hero who sacrificed his life for his country. If you do this, not only will the Huo family not let you off, but the military will not let you off either. "Song Jinning used both carrot and stick to completely capture Bai Jinyi.
There was no way to prove who Huo Guanyuan had liked back then, and it had nothing to do with Bai Jinyi.
Song Jinning didn't like the feeling of being absent from the trial. She felt that it would be blasphemy to a martyr if she said anything more.
"Yes, the law of the Empire emphasizes' presumption of innocence. ' Physicist Bai, if you think that Huo Guanyuan and Madam Song had an affair, you need to produce direct and objective evidence, not pollute our minds with your imagination, "Gu Nianzhi said confidently. "As for those so-called love letters, with all due respect, I can't tell who they were written to at all, because Mr. Huo's letters didn't have a header. May I ask why you insist that they were written to Madam Song? "
Gu Nianzhi didn't want to know who Huo Guanyuan liked, but it was too despicable to use a few old letters to convict two people who couldn't defend themselves.
She couldn't let them get away with it.
Bai Jinyi was speechless for a moment. She turned to see Huo Guanchen looking at Song Jinning in a daze, and a sour feeling welled up in her heart. She pulled him over and pointed at Song Jinning. "Guanchen, tell me, why did you get so angry when you read those letters, and then immediately ask for a divorce? They all said it was my fault, but what did it have to do with me? Jialan was the one who gave me the letters, and you were the one who asked for the divorce. I was with you after the divorce, and I'm innocent … "
"Physicist Bai, how can you be so shameless?" Gu Nianzhi pretended to be dumbfounded. "You just said that whether it was in the past, present, or future, the only person you like is Huo Guanyuan, and now you're dragging his brother along to prove your innocence … I want to ask you, are you really a pure white lotus, and an innocent person in this whole situation?"
Huo Guanchen continued to stare at Song Jinning, his lips pressed tightly together. His expression was stern, but he didn't say a word.
Song Jinning didn't even look at Huo Guanchen, and directly confronted Bai Jinyi. "Haha, none of this has anything to do with you? You're that innocent? Fine, as you said, Jialan was the one who gave me the letters, but where did Jialan get the letter you asked me to write? Huo Guanchen was the one who asked for the divorce, but would he have asked for it without that letter? Don't treat others like fools, this really isn't a problem of character, it's a problem of intelligence. "
