Especially now, Ji Yunya’s reputation is incredibly high, causing a stir everywhere. The last ti Ji Yunya was implicated in a murder case, she created nurous fake accounts to lead the online charge against Ji Yunya, but instead found herself relentlessly attacked by fans and bystanders alike, almost exposing her main account. She even spent money trying to bribe the dia into saring Ji Yunya, but no dia outlet dared to take it on. With Ji Yunya’s national popularity so high, attacking her was tantamount to going against the general public. Who would dare to take such a risk unless they were tired of living?
Recently, the second trial verdict for Bai Xiangxiang ca through. The original verdict was overturned due to insufficient evidence, and the appellate court, after supplenting the evidence and clarifying the facts, rendered a new sentence. According to the corresponding laws and regulations, Bai Xiangxiang’s evidence of murder was conclusive, and an additional five years were added to the original sentence, culminating in a fifteen-year term with lifeti deprivation of political rights, effective imdiately.
Well, that’s what you get for appealing and slandering Ji Yunya; an extra five years. This is karma.
Netizens were jubilant, Bai Xiangxiang finally got what she deserved. Because the case involved Ji Yunya, it has since been the center of attention. During the second trial, considering the influence of public opinion, the court proceedings were made public.
Gu Chunrong, due to kidnapping a child, was sentenced to six months’ imprisonnt, and thus had no chance to see her daughter one last ti. Bai Lun felt it was too shaful to appear, so apart from the dia filling the city, only Ji Yunya was there.
Bai Xiangxiang stood in the dock, her hair a ragged, yellow ss, her appearance gaunt, as if she had aged a decade or more. Gone was the youthful charm and radiance of the girl she once was, replaced with the likeness of an old person nearing their end — stiff, numb.
As she listened to the judge pronounce the sentence, her expressionless eyes twitched. Countless caras focused on her face, trying to capture the exact emotion she was exhibiting.
Since parting from the Pei Family, to think the next eting would be in such a place.
Yun Ya sat among the audience, observing Bai Xiangxiang’s sorry state, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned.
After all that trouble, the verdict hadn’t changed... oh no, it had, just with an additional five years tacked on. Fifteen years, that’s a long ti indeed.
As the bailiffs led her away, Bai Xiangxiang’s gaze shifted and she spotted a familiar figure in the audience.
A young girl sat quietly amongst the audience, her soft, chestnut hair flowing down, her eyes calm and detached with a gentle and bright smile playing upon her lips. From afar, she looked like a beautiful painting. However, the icy and mocking glint in the depths of those eyes was accurately caught by Bai Xiangxiang, despite being dozens of ters away.
Suddenly breaking free from the bailiffs, she charged toward Ji Yunya like a madwoman. The bailiffs, reacting quickly, subdued her. She struggled like an untad beast, pinned to the floor with her cheek pressed against the cold surface. Still not giving up, a desperate and angry roar escaped her throat; her face rapidly flushed with bulging veins, her eyes filled with resentnt glaring at Ji Yunya, like a ferocious ghost with a gaping maw, as if wanting to devour her alive.
She was yelling sothing, but because her vocal cords had been damaged, the words that ca out were indistinct, inaudible to anyone.
"Click, click," the flashbulbs popped incessantly, capturing her current state of disarray, broadcasting it for the whole world to witness.
Ji Yunya, how cruel you are... to bring her to this point, fifteen years, ha, is there anyone in the world more wronged than her?
Gazing at this solemn and sacred courtroom, the judges representing justice, and at the reporters whose eyes seed eager to devour her alive... What she couldn’t ignore was that person, sitting high and mighty, a mocking and disdainful gaze as if observing mud from a ditch...
She completely broke down.
She couldn’t accept this ending; her reputation in ruins, her life to be spent in prison. Her years, once as fresh as a flower, were now withering away.
Why had things turned out this way?
Ji Yunya, you are indeed ruthless. I only used your na to get close to Pei Qinghan, and I didn’t do anything outrageously wrong. Yet she retaliated with such vicious ans. This woman... she’s more poisonous than a scorpion.
I’ll never forgive you even as a ghost; just you wait...
She began to cry frantically, and as the bailiffs dragged her away, her gaze, filled with despair and unwillingness, rested upon that serene and peaceful figure. Finally, the door slowly closed before her, completely cutting off her line of sight.
Yun Ya left the courtroom, and was instantly surrounded by a swarm of reporters.
