"Get it all back?!" Gu Yanran almost screamed.
As soon as Gu Yanran thought about how such a large amount of wealth would disappear, her mind suddenly became alert. "You have no right to get it all back! Since we both have inheritance rights, you can only get half of the gift back at most! "
Jin Wanyi was also very surprised by Gu Yanran's sudden "intelligence." She immediately followed up. "My client is right. Both Lawyer Gu and my client have inheritance rights to the Gu fortune. In the absence of a will, you can each inherit half of the fortune. In other words, my client has 15 billion US dollars of inheritance rights. "
Gu Nianzhi looked down at the form in front of her. Her plump lips curled up, making her look even more like a pink water chestnut.
"… 15 billion US dollars of inheritance rights?" Gu Nianzhi raised the corner of her eye at Gu Yanran. "But the remaining fortune is only 10 billion US dollars. Does that mean Gu Yanran still owes me 5 billion US dollars?"
"5 billion? Fine, I'll give you 5 billion, and we'll be even! "Before Jin Wanyi could speak, Gu Yanran already shouted.
Jin Wanyi glared at her and scolded, "Shut up!"
Gu Yanran pursed her lips, but she was stunned by Jin Wanyi's gaze and didn't say anything.
Jin Wanyi turned to look at Gu Nianzhi and said in a low voice, "Lawyer Gu will get half of the gift money. If Lawyer Gu wants to get it back, please go ahead. As for the remaining 10 billion US dollars, you and my client will each get half. "
Gu Yanran was happy as soon as she heard that.
She didn't expect Jin Wanyi to be able to come up with such a good idea. It was much better than the one she had thought of before!
Gu Nianzhi chuckled and actually clapped for Jin Wanyi. "Lawyer Jin, you're really brave. This way, not only does your client not have to take a single cent, but she can also get another 5 billion US dollars. Brilliant, truly brilliant! "
"Lawyer Gu is too kind." Jin Wanyi stared at Gu Nianzhi. "If Lawyer Gu has no objections, our estate dispute case can be settled."
Gu Nianzhi put down her hand and looked at Jin Wanyi quietly for a while. She said in a low voice, "Lawyer Jin has a good plan. But I have to say, I — DO — NOT — ACCEPT — IT. "
Jin Wanyi's heart tightened. "Why not? Did I say something wrong? All the property, you and my client each get half. You can ask for half of the money that was given out. The rest of the assets will be split in half. What else do you want? "
"Lawyer Jin sure knows how to take advantage of others, but that's not how things are calculated."
Gu Nianzhi opened the excel file and quickly wrote a few simple addition and subtraction formulas.
"Lawyer Jin, please take a look. How can we just let go of the 70 million US dollars that Gu Yanran squandered in the past seven years? What about the five billion dollars she lost from selling the patents? What about the three billion dollars she had illegally signed? Do I have to take half of these losses as well? "
Lawyer Jin frowned and took a look. "This is just a small amount."
“Excuse-me？！ This is small change?! " Gu Nianzhi didn't know what to say. "A loss of tens of billions of US dollars is nothing in Lawyer Jin's eyes. Do I have to kneel before you?"
Jin Wanyi bit her lip and blinked her eyes. "Compared to the Gu family's property, this is just a small amount of money."
Gu Nianzhi saw that Gu Yanran and Jin Wanyi were still stubborn, so she didn't want to beat around the bush with them anymore.
You want half of the Gu family's assets?
Dream on!
Gu Nianzhi looked up at the judge and said, "Your Honor, I request for a retrial. We still have two important witnesses who won't be here for a few days."
The judge looked at the process and asked, "What kind of important witnesses?"
"They are two witnesses who can prove my and the defendant Gu Yanran's identity." Gu Nianzhi said as she handed over the names and information of the two witnesses.
"Xie Dezhao and Xie Qingying?" The judge looked at it and turned to inform Gu Yanran and Jin Wanyi. "Because the plaintiff has two new witnesses, Xie Dezhao and Xie Qingying, we will suspend the case and set a date for the fourth hearing."
"Xie Dezhao and Xie Qingying?" Jin Wanyi's brows furrowed tightly. The names sounded familiar. Who were they?
Jin Wanyi moved closer to Gu Yanran and asked quietly, "Who are these two people? Do you know them? "
Gu Yanran shook her head blankly. "No."
…
After leaving the court, Jin Wanyi got into Gu Yanran's luxurious limousine.
It was the end of November in the Imperial Capital, but they were already heating up, so it was obvious how low the temperature was.
However, Jin Wanyi didn't feel cold at all. Instead, she felt panicky from the heat.
"Yanran, you really don't know who Xie Dezhao and Xie Qingying are?" Jin Wanyi instinctively felt that these two people were very important.
Jin Wanyi didn't care about the mistakes Gu Yanran had made and embarrassed herself because she didn't think they were mistakes of principle. No matter what, Gu Yanran would get at least half of the Gu fortune.
However, seeing Gu Nianzhi's reckless behavior in court and the sudden appearance of two new witnesses, Jin Wanyi instinctively felt that something bad was about to happen …
Gu Yanran still had the same confused expression. She propped her head up with her hand and looked embarrassed. "Why do I have to know these two people? Are you crazy? "
"You're the one who's crazy!" Jin Wanyi was furious with Gu Yanran. "Gu Nianzhi said these two people can prove your identity! Tell me, if you don't know them, then how can you prove your identity?! "
"I need to prove my identity?!" Gu Yanran was also furious. "Am I supposed to be chased out of the Gu family by an adopted daughter?!"
Jin Wanyi's heart sank. She quickly knocked on the wooden decorations on the car three times. "Knock on wood. Don't talk nonsense!"
Gu Yanran snorted in disdain, but her mind began to think about who else in the Gu family …
Her whole body suddenly trembled when she thought about that. "Xie … Which Xie? Do you know which Xie family these two people belong to? "
"Which Xie family? Which Xie family do you think it is? "Jin Wanyi asked curiously." Or do you know who it is? "
Gu Yanran finally thought of the Xie family …
She stuttered, "I had an aunt who seemed to have married into the Xie family. However, she passed away many years ago. I only heard about it from my mommy once."
"Your aunt? Could it be that these two are your uncle and cousin? " Jin Wanyi looked at the information of the new witnesses provided by the court and pointed at the age of the two people. "If that's the case, then it can prove your identity."
Gu Yanran fell silent. After a while, she sneered. "Alright, you know how to find people, right? Just don't be afraid of being slapped in the face. "
Jin Wanyi heard the hidden meaning in her words and quickly said, "What's going on? Tell me, and I'll help you defend in court. "
Gu Yanran shook her head and smiled strangely. "That's not necessary. If it's these two people, I'll say it myself. "
Jin Wanyi's mouth dropped open.
However, seeing how stubborn Gu Yanran was, she couldn't be bothered to persuade her anymore. She took out her phone and sent Gu Yanran a receipt. "Please transfer the legal fees to this account. Thank you."
Gu Yanran said nonchalantly, "Why are you in such a hurry? Can't I give it to you after the lawsuit? "
Jin Wanyi laughed dryly. "Let's just settle the legal fees for this stage. There's still one more court appearance."
Gu Yanran saw how insistent she was and didn't argue with her. She called her accountant and asked her to transfer the money to Jin Wanyi's bank account.
Within five minutes, the accountant called her back. "Miss Gu, your bank account has been frozen, so there's no way to transfer money now. Lawyer Jin's fees are almost a million dollars. Do you think you should use the cash on hand to pay for it first? "
Gu Yanran's expression changed instantly. She stood up and screamed, "What did you say?! How could it be frozen?! "
