“Don’t be nervous. I’m just joking with you,” Yan Jinyi said innocently while blinking.
Leng Yuxi frowned and her features seemed a little hideous. “I really wonder what kind of means you used to bewitch Xishen.”
“Unfortunately, I don’t think I’m going to have a successor for these means of mine.” Yan Jinyi shook her head and said with pity, “I would have definitely imparted my skills to someone if I had known that I would get arrested. My disciple will definitely marry a good man too.”
Leng Yuxi gritted her teeth while thinking to herself, ‘This bitch is really taking a mile when given an inch.’
“Your Honor, Yan Jinyi is deliberately stalling for time. Yuxi saw her run over my mother-in-law with her own eyes and Yuxi has also provided the photos. Now that there is sufficient evidence, isn’t it enough to sentence her?” Chen Yulian said agitatedly while pointing at Yan Jinyi’s nose.
The judge was just about to speak when Leng Yuxi suddenly took out a sealed bag from her purse, which contained a silver bangle.
“This was retrieved from the deceased’s hand and I’ve already sent it for inspection. Yan Jinyi’s fingerprints does seem to be on it.”
Yan Jinyi was dumbfounded. ‘Have I ever touched Yang Guifang’s bangle?’
After carefully thinking about it for a long time, she finally came to a sudden realization that the bangle did seem rather familiar as it was the one that Yang Guifang had been wearing. Previously, Yang Guifang had been in a scuffle with her but it didn’t occur before the traffic accident.
‘When did Leng Yuxi become smart enough to falsify evidence and frame others?’
There was a minor uproar in the venue.
“Third Brother, what should we do now? Big Brother and Second Brother are dragging us down at such an important juncture. Do they even care about Second Sister-in-law?” Huo Qingyuan was so anxious that she was about to cry.
The calm and composed Huo Zihang had already secretly cursed Leng Yuxi countless times.
“Bring the evidence here.” The judge gestured. After seeing the report, he glanced at Yan Jinyi again. “Yan Jinyi, are your lawyers not here yet?”
“Your Honor, I don’t have a lawyer.”
Everyone was shocked to hear that.
Chen Yulian and Leng Yuxi exchanged glances, thinking to themselves that Yan Jinyi must have been abandoned by the Huo family.
However, it made sense. Who would dare to defend a person who had murdered her grandmother?
The judge’s tone was getting more and more serious. “Yan Jinyi, I’ll ask you one last time. Do you admit to killing your grandmother?”
Yan Jinyi didn’t answer immediately and instead, reached her hand out to move her hair away from her forehead with a sweet smile on her face. Even her voice had become much sweeter than usual. “Miss Leng, do you understand the lives of bandits?”
“What do you mean?”
“Do you know what bandits do to get revenge?”
Faced with Yan Jinyi’s gaze, Leng Yuxi suddenly felt a chill down her back. She hurriedly urged, “Your Honor, Grandma Yang is a very kind person. Not only does Yan Jinyi refuse to take care of her, she even harmed her grandmother.”
Leng Yuxi was full of righteous indignation and the few people present were almost influenced by her anger as they nodded and chimed in one after another.
Seeing this, Leng Yuxi continued, “I believe that the law is fair and they won’t let any crook off. Even till now, I still remember Grandma Yang holding my hand and telling me how nice it would be if I were her granddaughter…”
At this point, Leng Yuxi was already sobbing terribly.
Yan Jinyi moved her brows and thought, ‘She must have refined her skills or something, huh? Her acting chops are almost as good as mine now.’
Perhaps because Leng Yuxi’s voice and pitch were high, his attitude towards Yan Jinyi worsened.
Murderers are terrible but those who kill their grandmothers are worse.
“I hereby announce the sentence for Yan Jinyi…”
Before she finished, the tightly shut door was suddenly pushed open.
