Chapter 491 - 426: Extortion? It’s Your Turn to Go In
Gu Chen glanced at Wang Xiaoru.
This Wang Xiaoru is really outrageous.
Gu Chen had been silent just to see how Wang Xiaoru would defend herself.
The opposing lawyer hadn’t spoken from start to finish, but Gu Chen didn’t care. No matter how the opposing lawyer defended, Wang Xiaoru was definitely going to lose this lawsuit.
Because he was sure he would win this case!
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoru self-exposed.
Originally, Gu Chen was confident in winning this case, but Wang Xiaoru’s words in court gave Gu Chen even more confidence.
Gu Chen spoke up: "Your Honor, we have evidence!"
Everyone turned to look at Gu Chen.
The netizens in the livestream, as well as those on the audience stand.
Shen Fei was also watching Gu Chen...
Du Jingguang was in the audience, just waiting for Gu Chen to lose this case.
But now Gu Chen actually has evidence?
Could it be that Gu Chen still can’t lose this case?
If Gu Chen can’t lose this case... how can he suppress Gu Chen?
It’s impossible for Gu Chen to win every lawsuit, right?
Du Jingguang thought to himself, "Don’t panic, don’t panic, let me see what evidence Gu Chen can produce. Regardless of what is said, Shen Fei broke the law, he has to pay for the medical expenses for the assault, and the money given before was voluntary gifts, Gu Chen definitely can’t win this case. In my opinion... no matter how Gu Chen argues, he can’t win this lawsuit."
He’s also a top lawyer, but if he were to handle this case, he wouldn’t know how to help Shen Fei win, because Shen Fei is clearly at fault.
Especially now, hearing Wang Xiaoru say that Shen Fei beat her, causing her to miscarry, compensation is definitely warranted.
...
Wang Xiaoru also looked at Gu Chen.
She didn’t care about anything, as long as she didn’t end up in jail.
The rest... she’ll just wait for Shen Fei to pay.
Does assault not require compensation?
Ha! No matter how skilled the opposing lawyer is, does assault not need compensation?
It’s completely useless!
At this moment, Gu Chen presented the evidence.
Gu Chen said, "Here is the hospital’s examination report and test proof, along with the relevant evidence submitted by the hospital."
"Right after Shen Fei hit Wang Xiaoru, videos appeared online immediately, Shen Fei did indeed hit Wang Xiaoru, but Shen Fei did not cause significant harm to Wang Xiaoru. I admit, Shen Fei’s act of hitting was indeed wrong, but wrongdoing in hitting someone does not mean one has to compensate twenty thousand, is it reasonable for every person involved in a fight to compensate the other with twenty thousand right off the bat?"
Gu Chen continued, "I understand Shen Fei’s anger due to Wang Xiaoru’s infidelity that day, but physical assault is indeed an issue, hence Shen Fei is willing to compensate Wang Xiaoru, but Wang Xiaoru needs to provide proof from the hospital, detailing the extent of the damage, whether it’s minor or severe. Once there’s proof from the hospital, Shen Fei can compensate according to the law."
Gu Chen knew Wang Xiaoru wasn’t actually injured.
Shen Fei did hit Wang Xiaoru... but hitting Wang Xiaoru doesn’t immediately lead to jail or anything, it still depends on the severity of the injury.
Wang Xiaoru can get a medical assessment...
Compensation based on the injury severity...
You can’t just ask for twenty thousand for a slap, that’s unreasonable, it’s practically extortion.
Gu Chen added, "And Shen Fei hitting Wang Xiaoru and Wang Xiaoru’s miscarriage aren’t directly correlated."
"According to Wang Xiaoru’s original words, she had a miscarriage because Shen Fei hit her, hence she demands compensation..."
"However, according to the timeline of Wang Xiaoru’s miscarriage, by the time Wang Xiaoru went to the hospital for the procedure, a month had already passed."
"A month later, it is clearly not Shen Fei’s actions that caused Wang Xiaoru’s miscarriage. There’s no inherent link between them, and after being hit, Wang Xiaoru didn’t go to the hospital for an examination, nor is there any evidence proving Wang Xiaoru’s pregnancy was disturbed."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoru quickly retorted, "It’s because Shen Fei hit me, on one hand, hitting me affected my pregnancy, on the other hand, it affected my mood, and with my poor health, it might lead to miscarriage. I didn’t go to the hospital then because I had no money, how could I go for a check-up without money? Would you give me money? Why would not going to the hospital after being hit become a mistake?"
Wang Xiaoru continued, "Did I do wrong? I only went for a check-up when I had the money later on, I truly had no money, and my parents wouldn’t give me any, I had no way for an examination. Later on, when I felt abdominal pain, I thought of taking remedial measures but it was too late... finally, after a month, my body felt increasingly worse, I realized my pregnancy had halted! That’s when I went to the hospital for a check-up... I was truly helpless, it’s all Shen Fei’s fault."
"If it weren’t for Shen Fei, the child in my belly wouldn’t have died, so Shen Fei must compensate, he must compensate me, that was my child, it’s all because of Shen Fei! It’s all because of Shen Fei! Why did he hit me? If he didn’t hit me, everything would be fine, does my infidelity grant him the right to hit me? Since he hit me, he has to compensate."
"If Shen Fei won’t compensate, I will resolutely use legal weapons to defend my lawful rights!" Wang Xiaoru stated with righteous indignation.
At this moment, a bunch of Little Fairies appeared in the livestream.
[Shen Fei is really excessive, compensate! I think Shen Fei definitely should go to jail, he hit Wang Xiaoru, causing her to miscarry, this nature is really vile.]
