"Five years ago, the President came to me and asked me to let my daughter Xia Xingchen bear a child for him, saying that he would give me 10 million as a reward. However, my daughter was only 18 years old at the time. Although I was somewhat tempted by the 10 million, I did not agree immediately. But... Later, the President sent people to come to me again and again. I had to nod and agree because of his identity as the President. Later, after I discussed it with my daughter, she was still unwilling to agree. However, what was unexpected was that one month later, she suddenly became pregnant. According to her own account, she was drugged and raped by the drugged woman."
"We were all scared at the time. Her father was very angry and asked me to accompany her to the hospital to have the baby removed. So I followed her. But unexpectedly, no one dared to perform an abortion on her at the hospital. They said that a superior named Bai had instructed not to allow my daughter to have the baby removed."
Li Ling sat there, speaking one sentence after another. Her words were like a bombshell, and as soon as they came out, they immediately set off an uproar.
The film flashed wildly and the whole scene was boiling.
Xia Xingchen looked at Bai Yeqing and slowly stood up, "Judge, I have something to say!"
She stood up, and everyone looked at her. Bai Yeqing, who had always been expressionless, frowned and looked at her. She knew that he didn't want to involve her in this dispute. But now she had no way to avoid it.
"Please stop making noise, everyone!" The chief judge knocked the gavel to quiet the scene. He looked at Xia Xingchen with dignified eyes, "Miss, you have nothing to do here. Please sit down."
Xia Xingchen took off her sunglasses and mask little by little. Everyone had a vague idea of who she was, and then they pointed and talked.
But she seemed not to feel it, and walked towards the center of the crowd while speaking, "As the person involved, I think I am most qualified to speak!"
It turns out to be the person involved!
The presiding judge had a brief conversation with the person next to him and invited her to the seat.
In the audience, everyone was curious about how this scene would develop.
"I think, Mr. President, this time it's all over! The parties involved are here, it seems that they really want to kill him!"
"What the person said is true! If he is really suspected of having sex with a woman, he will have to stand trial after being impeached. This matter is still complicated."
"It's so disappointing! I still don't believe that the President is such a person!"
"Now the facts are before us, we have to believe it even if we don't want to..."
…
The people in the audience were talking one after another, and the voices were getting louder and louder. Until Xia Xingchen spoke again: "Please don't listen to my stepmother—no, my ex-stepmother!"
Everyone was stunned again.
What is going on
"Mr. President is an excellent leader. Over the years, he has made contributions to all the people and our country in his current position. I believe everyone has witnessed it." Xia Xingchen said slowly, "Let's not talk about the long-term. Just a few days ago, Mr. President visited neighboring countries and successfully brought back economic cooperation contracts for nuclear power and railways for us. This contribution cannot be erased by any false news. We have elected such an excellent leader, and what he has done from beginning to end has never disappointed us. So, this time, why do you think he will disappoint you?"
When she said these words, her eyes did not flicker at all, and slowly swept across every pair of eyes in the crowd.
Each word was gentle yet firm, with a magical soothing power, yet infectious, making it easy for people to believe. Her words undoubtedly made everyone sober and calm, and in the midst of the overwhelming criticism, they remembered the President's contributions.
Bai Yeqing's eyes deepened, and he fixed his gaze on her without moving away. Leng Fei and his companions looked at her with approval. Even Lan Ye in the audience couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that Xia Xingchen would not be stage-frightened at all in such an occasion.
"Ms. Xia, we all remember the President's contributions. However, now is not the time to discuss this matter. Please tell us the truth about what happened back then!" the presiding judge said.
Li Ling couldn't help but clench her hands.
Lan Ye turned his head and winked at his people at the door. Then, just as Xia Xingchen was about to speak, the door was pushed open again. A figure was pushed in in a panic.
The presiding judge frowned, "Who are you?"
A young girl.
She looked very disheveled, with her hair all over the place and a bandage on one side of her face. She was obviously a little scared of such an occasion, and looked around at everyone with a panicked look. When she saw Lan Ye in the audience, she trembled with fear.
It was Xia Xingkong!
Xia Xingchen frowned and looked back at Lan Ye, not knowing what was going on.
Under Lan Ye's signaling gaze, Xia Xingkong trembled and said, "I... I am here to testify for the President..."
At this point, the scene became more chaotic, and everyone was even more confused. Even Bai Yeqing was a little confused. Li Lingyi obviously didn't expect Xia Xingkong to come here. She looked at her daughter, "Xingkong, why are you here?"
Xia Xingkong did not dare to look at Li Lingyi. After sitting down, he spoke slowly: "Actually... all the news that happened recently was instigated by my mother, Li Lingyi..."
Everyone was surprised.
Li Ling's expression suddenly changed.
"My mother cheated Madam Bai out of 10 million yuan some time ago and was sent to prison by her. Moreover, she had a grudge against my sister Xia Xingchen, so...she wanted to take revenge on them and involved this matter together. In fact...it was all framed by my mother."
"Xia Xingkong, what are you talking about?!" Li Lingyi couldn't believe it. She couldn't believe that her daughter would betray her like this.
Xia Xingkong shrank back, not daring to look back. He just closed his eyes and continued, "My mother and Xia Xingchen have always had a feud. Xia Xingchen's child, in fact, has nothing to do with the president, and it is not the president's child at all. It is..."
She licked her lips, "But... my mother drugged her to vent her hatred and let her be abused. But that has nothing to do with Mr. President, and it's not a surrogate birth at all! All of this is made up by my mother!"
“Xingkong, why did you lie like this?! You know very well that I drugged her just to make her…” Li Lingyi spoke anxiously, but got stuck halfway through her words.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood.
The presiding judge banged the gavel. "So, you admit that you were the one who drugged me?"
