From a lawyer's letter

Chapter 74 Interrogating Qian Yuan

The outside of the court is sunny, but the inside is very heavy. Most of the people who enter the court have solemn expressions on their faces.

The dark brown, heavy door was pushed open, bringing a little noise to the silent courtroom. Chen Muqing turned her head to look at the door, and saw a lady wearing a black suit and trousers with long black hair in a middle aisle. , A woman with her hands shackled slowly came forward, followed by two guards, who took her to the prisoner's fence on the left with a serious face.

After the woman sat down slowly, two guards stood behind her, each wearing a pistol beside her, which seemed to prevent the woman from violently arousing in court, and also seemed to prevent her from escaping.

Chen Muqing, who was sitting under the left head, looked at the woman's calm expression, and after a brief eye contact, she smiled at the woman, then turned her head away, and looked at the prosecutor on the right.

Seeing that the prosecuting female lawyer, who was wearing a black coat like herself, also turned her head to look at her at the same time, the corners of her mouth curled up, and her face was covered with frost, Chen Muqing couldn't help frowning.

When she learned that the prosecution's attorney was a woman named Lin Qixuan not long ago, she cried out inwardly.

This woman is a well-known cold-faced devil. I have confronted her several times in court. Although I am not at a disadvantage, it is extremely difficult to defeat her.

Chen Muqing nodded slightly to her, turned her eyes back to the document in front of her, secretly thinking about how to win this lawsuit for Su Qingyu, but what she didn't realize was that Lin Qixuan's eyes flickered after she turned her head , then bowed his head and whispered to the little girl sitting beside him: "When she asks you a question later, remember not to be afraid and answer truthfully."

Then, she turned her head slightly and pouted at Chen Muqing who was not far away.When the girl looked up at Lawyer Chen and Su Qingyu, her face became extremely firm, she nodded and said, "I will tell the truth."

After a long time, there were many people sitting on the audience rail in the courtroom, and then 12 jurors filed in and sat in the upper right hand position. The originally silent courtroom instantly rang out the sound of delicate voices.

Su Qingyu turned her head to the audience column, and saw everyone staring at her blankly. She didn't know most of these people, and she didn't know who they were. They were probably just the public who came to watch the trial.

Suddenly, she saw a woman wearing large glasses and a peaked cap sitting in the corner of the last row of the audience bar, but most of the woman's face was covered by the glasses, and she lowered her head. Therefore, it is hard to see who this weird woman is.

Just when she opened her eyes and tried hard to see the clues from the woman's face, she noticed that everyone suddenly stood up and Su Qingyu stood up with everyone, and when she looked at the top position in the middle, she realized that the judge had arrived.

A man's voice sounded next to her ears. It was the host in the court, saying something that Su Qingyu couldn't understand. When everyone sat down, she also sat down.

Although it was the first time to go to court, Su Qingyu knew that the real interrogation was about to begin with the entry of the judge.

Soon, the door of the court opened again, and a man walked in. Su Qingyu recognized at a glance that this man in a suit was Qian Yuan who had been by his side for many years.

After he glanced at himself, his eyes were expressionless, and he sat down on the interrogation bar, sitting upright without looking sideways.

Right after Qian Yuan took the oath, Attorney Chen got the judge's permission, stood up from his seat, walked to Qian Yuan's side, and began the interrogation.

"Mr. Qian, how long have you known Su Qingyu and Ms. Su?"

"Nine years." Qian Yuan replied calmly.

"Nine years is a very long time, so have you ever thought about leaving her and looking for another employer?" Although Chen Muqing asked Qian Yuan, she looked at Su Qingyu.

"No, I didn't think about leaving. Miss Su is very good to me, she is a good boss, it is true for me, and it is probably true for others."

After Chen Muqing said "um", she raised her head and said to the judge, "There is no other problem." Then she turned her head and sat down in her seat.

At this time, Lin Qixuan who was the prosecutor suddenly stood up, walked up to Qian Yuan, separated a short distance from him, and said in a cold voice: "Mr. Qian, I would like to ask what kind of position you hold beside Miss Su." ?”

"I'm her personal assistant." Qian Yuan answered cautiously with vigilant eyes.

"Personal assistant... So, that means you have been by Miss Su's side for a long time? I mean you have been by her side for a long time, no matter what she does, you know it all?"

Facing this series of questions, Qian Yuan frowned, but answered truthfully: "Although I am her personal assistant, I am not always by her side."

When she said this, Lin Qixuan showed a faint smile on her cold face, which could hardly be seen unless she looked carefully, but she said: "Since you don't often follow Ms. Su, can it also mean that she is in other places?" You don't know what you do all the time?"

"I just work for her, so of course I don't know about her private affairs, but we still keep in touch with each other on the phone often about work matters, and she won't be mean to me as a subordinate, and she will never treat me badly, so for this relationship, I can say with certainty that she is still a good boss." At this moment, a layer of sweat oozed from Qian Yuan's forehead.

"Mr. Qian, you just need to answer my question. Since you are not around her often, you naturally don't see her often. Does that mean that you don't know what she did at other times? For example, kidnapping children this matter?"

Lin Qixuan's eyes were still fixed on Qian Yuan, which made him a little at a loss.After a few seconds, I heard him say: "Yes, except for work, I don't know what Director Su has done at other times."

"Your Honor, it's all right." When Lin Qixuan returned to her seat, she glanced at Chen Muqing, but she didn't show any expression.

"Where's Lawyer Chen?" the judge asked in a deep voice.

Looking at Qian Yuan who was sitting on the interrogation bar, Chen Muqing got up again and walked to his side.

"Mr. Qian, has Ms. Su given you any authority to follow up on some official affairs or any decision-making tasks recently? For example, in the hotel industry, have you been involved in some things that the management should do?"

After listening to Chen Muqing's question again, Mr. Qian regained his original calm, and said loudly: "Yes. Director Su bought a piece of land in the suburbs of Yangshi, and she wanted to build a hotel and villa there. This project has always been followed up by me. For me, an ordinary personal assistant, she really gave me a lot of trust, let me develop my own career, and gave me more space to develop my strengths. "

"Does this mean that she has put complete trust in you, and even made you feel that you are full of value?" Chen Muqing asked again.

There was a trace of gratitude on Qian Yuan's face. When he looked at Su Qingyu who was sitting on the prison pen, he nodded and said, "Yes, she made me feel the value of being a human being and the feeling of truly having a decent life."

Chen Muqing smiled: "Okay, no problem."

The judge turned his head to Lin Qixuan: "Where is Lawyer Lin?"

Lin Qixuan stood up slowly from her seat, came to Qian Yuan again, and asked him in a slightly low voice: "Mr. Qian, I am very curious about the decent life you mentioned. You mean that you have not become Miss Su yet." Your life was not as good as it is now when you were an assistant?"

"Yes, before I worked under her, I really didn't have a good life."

After hearing Qian Yuan's answer, Lawyer Lin asked again: "So, what did you do before? What was your previous occupation?"

At this moment, Chen Muqing stood up and retorted loudly: "Protest! This issue has nothing to do with today's case!"

"Your Honor, this issue has something to do with what Mr. Qian said about trust and integrity." Lin Qixuan said in a deep voice.

The judge glanced at Lawyer Chen and said in a low voice, "Mr. Qian, please answer Lawyer Lin's question."

Chen Muqing frowned, sat back on her seat, and when she turned her head to look at Su Qingyu, she saw that the other person's face was the same as her own, a little dark.

"Mr. Qian, what did you do before you worked under Miss Su?" Lin Qixuan asked again.

Qian Yuan trembled a little, knowing that his answer revealed another unknown past: "I used to be the gardener and gardener of the Tang family in Yangshi, and later I followed Tang Lei, the eldest son of the Tang family, as a His entourage. But thanks to Mr. Tang's promotion, I later became a department foreman in the hotel."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Lawyer Chen, even Su Qingyu was shocked at the same time.Tang Lei is Tang Hu's eldest son and Tang Yuan's elder brother in Tang's Hotel, but as far as she knows, Tang Lei has passed away for many years, but she never thought that Qian Yuan had worked in the Tang family for a while.

Lawyer Lin nodded, with a satisfied smile on his face: "Mr. Qian, does Ms. Su know about this part of your past? Before she admitted you, did you include this part of your qualifications in your resume?" Write it down? Please answer truthfully."

"No, Director Su doesn't know." Qian Yuan lowered his head as he spoke, his eyes full of remorse.If Su Qingyu knew his background a long time ago, he would not have encountered such an embarrassing predicament today.

"Mr. Qian, please answer clearly. What doesn't Miss Su know?" Lin Qixuan spoke aggressively.

"Director Su doesn't know my background, nor does he know that I used to work as a department foreman in Tang's Hotel." Qian Yuan replied with a trembling voice.

"Does that mean that the relationship between you and Ms. Su is not particularly good, that is, the relationship between your leaders and subordinates is not as trustworthy as you said before? You concealed your qualifications from her before she recruited you, even if it is Up to now, you have been trying to keep it a secret, so does that mean you still have reservations about her?"

"It's not like that..." Qian Yuan hastily clarified and denied it.

"Mr. Qian, you just need to answer yes or no? Do you still have reservations about Director Su until today, and even think that she is not someone who can gain your trust?"

Facing Lawyer Lin's questioning, Qian Yuan looked at Su Qingyu who was sitting on the left side in a panic, with sweat running down his forehead, only to hear Su Qingyu say to himself in a deep voice: "Qian Yuan, answer the lawyer's question!"

Under Su Qingyu's stern gaze, Qian Yuan turned his head and looked forward again. When he faced Lawyer Lin, his face was full of panic. He could only hear his own voice saying: "Yes... yes." , bowed his head.

He really didn't know what he was answering.

"In that case, have you ever doubted the kidnapping case that Ms. Su was involved in?" Lin Qixuan stared sharply at Qian Yuan.

"Your Honor, I protest! Trust at work and abduction incidents are two different issues." Chen Muqing stood up to protest again.

"I've changed my question again. Have you ever suspected that Ms. Su staged a kidnapping incident by herself?"

"No, I never doubted it." Qian Yuan replied firmly.

Lin Qixuan nodded: "Okay, I'm done asking." Following that, she returned to her seat.

Chen Muqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although in the last critical moment, she succeeded in making Lin Qixuan no longer press Qian Yuan, but the previous trust and integrity issues put Su Qingyu at a disadvantage.

What does such an argument look like in the eyes of the jury?
