When Jin Wanyi heard that Gu Yanran went to a butler school in England, even she froze.
However, she quickly recovered and gently patted Gu Yanran, who was so angry she couldn't speak. She stood up and said to Gu Nianzhi, "Lawyer Gu, you did a good job gathering evidence, but there's a problem with the conclusion."
"What's the problem?" Gu Nianzhi put away the form she had made. "Don't you think the reason she did this was to hide her true identity?"
"Lawyer Gu, first of all, the servants of the Gu family in Barbados were killed because of a kidnapping case against my client. At the time, they demanded something from my client that belonged to her father. My client would rather be tortured than give it up. In the end, the kidnappers were desperate and killed everyone in the Gu family. When they were about to kill my client, someone saved her. I don't understand why Lawyer Gu would avoid the important and dwell on the trivial. She didn't say why the Gu family's servants were killed, but only said that they were killed. "Jin Wanyi spread her hands regretfully.
Gu Nianzhi chuckled and said, "There are still doubts about the case from back then. Such a vicious criminal who could kill an entire family was able to bring the defendant, Gu Yanran, to international waters and was even shot by Gu Yanran. Gu Yanran, does your mother know you're so amazing? "
The last sentence was directed at Gu Yanran.
Gu Yanran heard the mockery in Gu Nianzhi's words and felt bitter.
She was really at her wit's end because of Gu Nianzhi.
She had to speak in court, but it was obvious that the more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make.
If she accidentally said something wrong, Gu Nianzhi would take advantage of her weakness …
She wasn't like this when she was young. She didn't like to talk when she was young.
A trace of fear flashed across Gu Yanran's eyes. She looked up at Gu Nianzhi and quickly looked down again.
She intertwined her fingers and covered her knees.
Jin Wanyi also laughed and said, "The criminal was blinded by lust, and my client seized the opportunity to counterattack. Can you blame my client for that? "
"Of course I can't say that your client directed this' kidnapping case 'herself," Gu Nianzhi said very sincerely. Gu Nianzhi said very sincerely, "Because the culprit hasn't been caught yet, it's difficult to prove this theory. So I'm just pointing out the suspicious points. "
Jin Wanyi snorted and began to defend the second point. "As for the orphanage in Barbados, that's even more ridiculous. My client isn't an orphan. What does the orphanage have to do with her? "
"Haha, is that so?" Gu Nianzhi retorted and looked at Gu Yanran meaningfully.
Gu Yanran glared back, unwilling to back.
Jin Wanyi continued, "As for Gu Yanran's mother's name and her marriage certificate with Mr. Gu, these are not the main points of this case. Please, the court, do not be distracted by these minor details."
After that, Jin Wanyi asked, "May I ask if I can cross-examine the other witness now?"
Gu Nianzhi waited for a long time, but Jin Wanyi didn't ask about the butler's school. She reminded her with a smile, "Lawyer Jin, I still have a fourth point. You're not going to refute it?"
Wanyi preed and continued looking at. Gu Gu Nii Gu Jin
Gu Nianzhi saw that Gu Yanran was playing dumb, so she took out the documents and said to Gu Yanran, "Gu Yanran, your father, Gu Xiangwen, is secretly a millionaire. May I ask why he sent you to housekeeping school?! You're the daughter of a wealthy family. Do you need to be a housekeeper?! "
Gu Yanran took a deep breath and noticed everyone looking at her from the corner of her eyes. She couldn't help feeling humiliated and wronged.
She wiped her tears and said calmly, "It was my mother's request to go to a housekeeper's school. Although my father was against it, he loved my mother very much and agreed to everything she said. "
"But why did your mother want you to go to a housekeeper's school? You didn't have money in the past, but now that you're back in the Gu family, don't tell me you don't even have the money to go to a proper university? "Gu Nianzhi questioned Gu Yanran's mother's decision.
Gu Yanran gritted her teeth and said, "Because we experienced extreme poverty in the past, my mother always believed that it's better to rely on yourself than anything else. So she wanted me to go to a housekeeper's school and learn a skill so I can support myself in the future."
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help looking up at the sky.
Was this really how a mother thought?
Even if she wanted to rely on herself and learn a skill, what kind of skill was housekeeping?!
What was the point of learning to be good at serving people?
If she really wanted to rely on herself, she should study hard, get into a good university, and study a good major. That was "learning a skill."
As for the British housekeeper, other than having the opportunity to work for a wealthy family in the future, Gu Nianzhi couldn't think of any other place that would require a professional housekeeper.
So if she wanted to learn a skill and rely on herself, she wanted to learn the skill of currying favor in a rich and powerful family …
Was this really "it's better to rely on yourself than anything else?"
This was so hypocritical.
Gu Nianzhi cursed in her heart as she organized her words so that her words wouldn't be too harsh.
"You experienced extreme poverty in the past, but ever since you returned to the Gu family, the word" poverty "has been cut off from you. May I ask why your mother thinks this way? Or does she want to stubbornly send you to a housekeeper's school? " Gu Nianzhi looked at Gu Yanran's records at the housekeeper's school. Her grades were indeed good, and she was good at serving people …
Gu Yanran didn't know how to answer at this point. She could only insist, "… My mother insists, what can I do? Is it wrong for me to be filial to my own mother? "
Gu Nianzhi smiled faintly. "That's right. Being filial to a child is not wrong, but to paint yourself as a 'filial' child and then push the blame to your own mother, as if you're mentally retarded, is this not tarnishing your mother's image? Tsk tsk, how filial … "
Gu Yanran felt like she had already become a giant balloon, and if Gu Nianzhi said a few more words, she would immediately explode.
She never knew someone could be so hateful and not get along with her from head to toe. This kind of person shouldn't be born in this world, so why wasn't she dead yet?!
Gu Nianzhi looked at Gu Yanran's undisguised resentment and knew that Gu Yanran hated her to the core.
But she didn't care at all.
Even if she didn't do anything, Gu Yanran would hate her to the core, so she might as well do something to make herself happy.
Jin Wanyi saw Gu Nianzhi and Gu Yanran at a stalemate in the courtroom and reached out to pat Gu Yanran to calm her down. She then stood up and asked, "Lawyer Gu, are you done with your questioning?"
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "That's it for now. We still have an important witness who hasn't arrived yet. I won't continue questioning today. "
