Chapter 19: In the spotlight

The case of the Imperial Kitchen Pavilion against Ma Defei for damage to his reputation was again heard in the Jianghai City Court.

This is a public trial, for the public!

It is very different from the original world, and there are reporters who broadcast the trial live.

The audience was full of people who were following the progress of this lawsuit, including the senior management of the Imperial Kitchen Pavilion and the heads of various branches, Fang Yunping of the celebrity chef, and Su Haoyue of the Su family.

"Su Shao, it turns out that you are also concerned about this lawsuit. When Fang Yunping saw Su Haoyue, the expression on his face was very surprised.

Su Haoyue nodded slightly, her eyes on Xiao Han on the plaintiff's bench.

Xiao Zhiyuan didn't come!

It's just that Xiao Han and the vice president of the Imperial Dining Pavilion came, and even the defense lawyer was replaced by Zhang Dawei!

His brow furrowed more and more, it was too abnormal to see what was going on.

As if seeing Su Haoyue's doubts, Fang Yunping glanced at the people on the plaintiff's bench, and said with a victorious attitude: "Xiao Zhiyuan has traveled all over the law firms in Jianghai City, and when he heard that the opponent was Lawyer Ge, no lawyer dared to defend his Imperial Dining Pavilion, and he actually let the second ancestor of waste wood in Jianghai City come up, which shows that he has given up resistance and struggle. ”

The mood is really very happy, although he spent a lot of money to invite Ge Zhongtian, but it is worth it, after this trial, the Imperial Dining Pavilion will be removed from Jianghai City, and from now on, the catering overlord of Jianghai City will be his celebrity chef.

"Boss Fang, don't take it lightly. Su Haoyue reminded.

Fang Yunping was stunned, can't be taken lightly?

Could there be any accidents in this lawsuit?

He smiled and said: "With Lawyer Ge here, there will be no accidents, this lawsuit is definitely lost." ”

He also mocked Xiao Han in the plaintiff's seat: "Xiao Han's nephew, why didn't your father Xiao Zhiyuan come, is it because he gave up, huh?"

Xiao Han was not angry or annoyed, he just treated him as air and turned a blind eye.

The expression on Cheng Qigang's face, the vice president of the Imperial Dining Pavilion, was uncertain, and he couldn't help but say: "Playing insidious tricks behind the scenes, the achievements of celebrity chefs will not be high." ”

"Hahaha......"

Fang Yunping laughed and said, "Vice President Cheng, you are still the same as before, with a hard mouth, but I want to see how long you can be hard-mouthed." ”

Cheng Qigang's face was surprisingly angry, and his hand clenched into a fist.

He looked at Xiao Han and Zhang Dawei next to him helplessly, and his mood was extremely heavy.

Mr. Xiao asked Xiao Han and Zhang Dawei to come over to take care of the matter, but it was clear that he had given up, was the Imperial Dining Pavilion really going to fall?

He was very unwilling, too unwilling, although the Imperial Dining Pavilion belonged to the Xiao family, but he also put in a lot of effort, and he fell down like this, and his heart was too unpleasant.

The senior management of the Imperial Dining Pavilion and the heads of the branches in the audience were also full of heavy faces, and it would not be long before the Imperial Dining Pavilion building would collapse, and they would have to think about the way back.

Ma Defei sat in the defendant's seat, compared with the miserable appearance when he was beaten by Xiao Han before, he is really arrogant now, the corners of his mouth are down, but he is smiling, just like the soldier of the Independent Regiment who found a yard of supplies and put a seal on it and stood guard at the door in "Bright Sword", he really looked like he was underbeaten.

He also made a gesture to wipe his neck to provoke Xiao Han and Zhang Dawei, but unfortunately the two of them didn't like him at all.

Next to him, sat a middle-aged man with fair skin, wearing a straight suit, tall and thin, with a wider distance between his eyes than ordinary people, looking like a sense of old treacherous and cunning, looking ahead, that kind of confidence seemed to be natural from the inside out.

Ge Zhongtian!

This is the famous barrister Ge Zhongtian, who has not been defeated since his debut.

"Did the Imperial Pavilion intimidate and threaten the reporter Ma Defei and create false evidence to win back his reputation, or did Ma Defei deliberately distort the truth of the facts and write fake news to smear the Imperial Pavilion? ”

Jianghai City TV is broadcasting live at the moment, not only TV stations, but also major news media platforms have launched live broadcast pages for public trials.

Of course, this is the effect of the celebrity chef Fang Yunping after spending money, he is bound to win this trial, as long as he wins, the reputation of the Imperial Kitchen Pavilion will be completely ruined, don't think about being able to turn over, this is called murder.

Doge's Palace.

Zhao Tianxiong, who has a straight body and a heroic and righteous body, is sitting on the sofa watching TV.

The door to the hall opened, and Zhao Xining walked in.

"Dad. Zhao Xining shouted.

"Ning'er, you came back just in time, I have something to ask you. ”

Zhao Tianxiong beckoned, "Come here, sit." ”

Zhao Xining obeyed, walked over and sat down.

"Listen to Hongye, you found a boyfriend?" Zhao Tianxiong said.

"Hmm. ”

Zhao Xining didn't deny it, and nodded, "Dad, I'm so old, it's time to fall in love, this is also a compulsory course in college." ”

"I don't object to you falling in love, but why would you find Xiao Han's kid to be your boyfriend? Don't you know that he is recognized as a waste wood in Jianghai City? He was just divorced by the Su family a while ago. Zhao Tianxiong frowned.

"That's what makes that guy more interesting, isn't it?"

Zhao Xining said with a smile, "Also, I want to know what kind of waste wood method he is, and I also want to know if Xiao Han is really as unbearable as everyone says." ”

"???" Zhao Tianxiong was full of questions.

"Don't worry, Dad, I asked him to be my boyfriend to prevent myself from having real feelings, don't worry, I will break up with him in three months. Zhao Xining gave Zhao Tianxiong a slap on the shoulder.

Zhao Tianxiong shook his head helplessly: "Ning'er, Dad is afraid that you will fall in, you know, your mother has recognized Su Haoyue of the Su family as her son-in-law, if she knows that you have found Xiao Han as a boyfriend, she must be angry." ”

"Since she likes Su Haoyue so much, then she will marry Su Haoyue. Zhao Xining pursed his lips and said.

As soon as he heard this, Zhao Tianxiong's face darkened: "I'm starting to talk nonsense again." sighed, "Don't hide it from your father, you have liked Su Haoyue since you were a child, but Su Haoyue, this kid is busy taking care of the Su Group, and never takes the initiative to look for you, you are looking for Xiao Han as your boyfriend, you also want to be angry with him, right?"

Zhao Xining's pretty face flushed: "Who said I like him, I don't like that arrogant and self-righteous son." ”

Zhao Tianxiong didn't say any more, the girl's family still wants to save face, even if she likes it, she doesn't admit it, it's normal.

"Dad, in fact, everyone's understanding of Xiao Han may be wrong, I don't think that a waste wood who doesn't learn and doesn't know how can have such a deep literary foundation. Zhao Xining said.

Thinking of Xiao Han's description of wine and the wonderful duel with Liu Lin, she felt that Xiao Han had a sense of mystery.

"But no matter what, you should keep your distance from him as soon as possible, three months is too long, one month, one month will end with him, Dad is from here, believe me, feelings are not something you can control. Zhao Tianxiong had already smelled a hint of crisis, so he spoke directly to Zhao Xining in a commanding tone.

"I've already told him, how can I ......"

"Okay, it's decided, you guys will end it in a month, watch TV, the lawsuit of the Xiao family's Imperial Dining Pavilion is ongoing, this time Xiao Zhiyuan did not attend, but his son Xiao Han attended. Zhao Tianxiong raised his hand to interrupt.

Xiao Han?

Zhao Xining was stunned for a moment, looked towards the TV, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Han sitting in the plaintiff's seat.

What is he sitting there for??

Is it to fight a lawsuit for the Imperial Dining Pavilion?

"On the opposite side is Ge Zhongtian, the chances of winning the lawsuit are very slim, after this lawsuit, the Imperial Pavilion can be removed from Jianghai City. Zhao Tianxiong said lightly.
