Chapter 283: What Did Lin Yi Use to Turn the Tables?

Zhao Zhengyang was furious at the mention of what had happened that night, but he held back his anger.

“Haha, it’s so late, yet you still have the mood to think about such things. Can’t you think more about yourself?”

“I’m doing pretty well now, so I won’t trouble you to worry about me.”

“There are some things that you might not know. This place is known as the Zhao family’s backyard. We’ve never lost a case here. Now that all the evidence on you is in my hands, what can you possibly fight me with?”

“I’ll use the 50,000 dollars that you gave me.”

“F*ck!”

Zhao Zhengyang cursed, but the staff members pulled him away. This was not a place for a fight.

Zhao Zhengyang was still angry after being pulled back to his chair. “Damn it, I’m going to make him rot in jail!”

“Don’t worry, President Zhao. I’ve already told you that I won’t let him off so easily.”

After the court started, Lin Yi sat in the defendant’s seat, resting his chin on one hand. He was bored to death.

Fu Yuqiang, who was sitting in the judges seat, saw Lin Yi’s relaxed expression and was furious.

......

How could he still be so carefree at this time? He didn’t even feel nervous at all. Did he not care about his position at all?

“Plaintiff, start your argument.”

Zhao Zhengyang gave the lawyer a look and the latter stood up.

“In our investigation, we found that the Lingyun Foundation did not announce any distribution or receipt of aid during the fundraising process. This is a serious violation of the relevant regulations surrounding fund management.”

“Secondly, we have solid evidence that the car the defendant drove here was bought by himself with money from the charity. In other words, he used the aid from the society to enrich himself. This is something that our society cannot tolerate!”

“I hereby implore the court to condemn this incident and give the defendant a just sentence.”

“You want a trial? Do you think you’re Jesus?” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“I know you don’t want to admit it, but let me tell you, there are witnesses and solid evidence here. You have no room to refute.” Zhao Zhengyang’s lawyer said.

“I barely believed you when you said there was evidence, but what witness are you talking about? I’d like to know.” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“Don’t you know what you’ve done?”

Zhao Zhengyang’s lawyer shrugged. “But that’s okay. I’ll call for the witness, and you’ll be convinced.”

Lin Yi made a beckoning gesture. “Please begin your performance.”

The lawyer turned around and gestured to Fu Yuqiang. The latter said,

“May the witnesses please come to the stand.”

Guo Yuntao and Li Sulan walked out, accompanied by the staff.

Lin Yi glanced at the two of them. There didn’t seem to be anything special about them. He’d never seen them before.

“It’s you guys!”

Lin Yi turned back when he heard He Yuanyuan’s voice. “Do you guys know each other?”

“The man’s name is Guo Yuntao. He’s the director of Zhonghai Hope Orphanage. The woman’s name is Li Sulan. She’s the director of the Yangcheng Honghua Orphanage in Yangcheng. They received 800,000 and 1.1 million respectively from us.”

The foundation had just been set up, and He Yuanyuan and Qi Xianzhao were personally in charge of the initial operations.

Naturally, they recognized the people who approached them.

“So that’s what happened.” Lin Yi understood.

However, from the looks of it, they weren’t here to help him.

“Miss He, please don’t talk nonsense.” Guo Yuntao said.

“You only gave $50,000 for charity, and you said that this $50,000 donation would be divided into eight instalments before being sent to our orphanage. It wasn’t $800,000 like you claim!”

“Us too!” Li Sulan said.

“She gave us 60,000 dollars in aid, but she wanted to send it to us in ten instalments. She also threatened us by saying that we couldn’t say we had only received 60,000 dollar s to the outside world, and that if we mention the 1.1 million dollars, we couldn’t mention that it was provided in instalments. We had to say that it came in the form of a lump sum, or else she wouldn’t give us the aid.”

“We are a social welfare organization. Forget 60,000 dollars, even 6 dollars is precious to us. But her behavior made us despise her. That’s why we came forward today to testify against them!”

“Bullsh*t! I gave you two a total of 1.9 million dollars, and it was a lump sum. When have I ever cheated you?”

He Yuanyuan’s chest was heaving up and down in anger. If this wasn’t a courtroom, she would’ve started cursing already.

Firstly, she didn’t cheat them at all. Their testimony was pure slander!

Second of all, even though she and Lin Yi treated each other as equals, this was all in private.

If he were to misunderstand and think that she was the one who pocketed the money, it would cause a rift between them, and she wouldn’t be able to work at Lingyun anymore.

“Calm down, or else it’ll cause your menopause to come early.” Lin Yi said with a smile.

Lin Yi trusted He Yuanyuan and Qi Xianzhao’s character.

However, Zhao Zhengyang did not know this.

“Everyone, as you can see, my witness has revealed the truth, but the defendant couldn’t sit still and threatened my witness. I think this is enough proof to illustrate the problem.”

“Alright, Yuanyuan, lower your voice. It’s not our turn to speak. Your impulsiveness will backfire,” Qi Xianzhao persuaded.

“These two guys are ingrates. We were doing charity out of the kindness of our hearts, and they came back to bite us. How disgusting!”

Dong dong dong!

Fu Yuqiang pounded the gavel. “Quiet!”

He Yuanyuan sat down angrily on the chair, on the verge of exploding.

The court quieted down as Fu Yuqiang looked at Lin Yi. “Defendant, what say you?”

Lin Yi shrugged. “There’s nothing much to say, actually.”

“Since you’ve confessed to your actions, the court will issue a verdict.” Fu Yuqiang said.

“Wait, don’t rush. I still have to struggle a little.” Lin Yi said.

Zhao Zhengyang’s lips curled into a disdainful smile. ‘What’s the point of struggling in front of me, Zhao Zhengyang?

‘He’s really ignorant!’

“If you have anything else to say, then make your statement now.” Fu Yuqiang said.

“In reality, the main reason the Tianhong Foundation took me to court was because the Lingyun Foundation didn’t make a clear announcement about the source and flow of the aid, right?”

“That’s right!” Zhao Zhengyang’s lawyer said.

“According to the fund management regulations, every bit of money from the foundation has to have clear announcements made about the source and flow of the aid, but you took the aid and pocketed it for yourself. Do you think no one would find out about this? The justice system is very thorough, and there will naturally be people who would suspect you!”

At that moment, everyone in the court was looking at Lin Yi, wanting to see how he would explain this.

“The heavenly justice system is very thorough, what a f*cking pretentious act,” Lin Yi said.
