i gave myself away

Two months later, the verdicts of the 30 series of cases came out. Xie Jincheng and Shi Mo went to get the verdicts at the same time. Xie Jincheng also brought a sealed document bag, and I don't know what was in it.

After receiving the verdict from the clerk, the two of them looked at each other in blank dismay. They were so nervous that their hearts would stop beating when they went out, but when they got reassurance, no one was the first to turn to the last page to check the verdict.

"Why don't you look at it, because you're afraid you'll lose to me?" Shi Mo had a big smile on his lips, but his muscles were so stiff that his muscles twitched, not to mention his fingertips were trembling.

Xie Jincheng grasped the verdict suddenly, and the not-so-thin paper was wrinkled: "You care about the result the most, so read it first."

"Don't look, I will definitely win the case, so I want you to watch it first, to stimulate you!" Shi Mo's facial muscles were as stiff as a mummy that had lost moisture. He didn't know what he was afraid of. The thorny creeper slowly snaked up the heart, until it grabbed the heart, until the heart was wrapped and lost the strength to beat.He had a premonition that once he turned to the last page, he would lose something very important.

Xie Jincheng closed his eyes deeply, took a deep breath, mustered up the courage of his life, and forced his resisting hand to turn to the last page...

shocking.

This is the best word to describe the state of mind of the two of them at the moment.

It seems that a century has flowed between the fingers, time has drawn a long river between the two, and the cold silence has written the mood of the two.

The court found that the actual borrower was Chen Yu himself, and Chen Yu should repay the principal and interest of the creditor's loan. The interest was calculated at four times the bank's interest rate for similar loans in the same period; The inability to repay the part of the debt bears half of the liability for compensation.The litigation costs of the first instance shall be borne by Chen Yu, 50% of the litigation costs of the second instance shall be borne by Jiayou Company and its branch, and 50% by the creditor.

It can be seen from the way of bearing the litigation costs that Jiayou Company has won the lawsuit to a certain extent.The branch company stamped the loan contract, so it is inevitable to bear the responsibility. However, compared with the result of Jiayou Company, the branch company and Chen Yu jointly repaying the loan in the first instance, the result of the second instance judgment is obviously more favorable to the appellant.

Shimo tried its best to win more benefits for the appellant.

In this lawsuit, Xie Jincheng narrowly lost.

The air sucked into the abdominal cavity suddenly became thinner, and the whole chest was convulsed with pain. For the first time, Xie Jincheng felt that the air that was supposed to be sucked in every second to maintain life would also become deadly in an instant. poison.He suddenly smiled, his smile was as fierce as a flower blown by rain and wind, and lost its color and brilliance in an instant, he held on to the verdict tightly, and the words Shi Mo said echoed in his mind one after another like a demon.

—— "Xie Jincheng, if I win the next lawsuit, you will return everything you have won from me to me. Do you dare to compare with me!"

Everything you won?

Including property, including personal freedom, and of course... including Shi Mo's heart.

"Shi Mo, you are free."

The wind leaves words as light as cotton wool.

Xie Jincheng handed the sealed document bag to Shi Mo, smiled and left calmly.

I no longer have the ability to catch you, I can only abide by our agreement, let you go free, I will give you back what I won, and give you everything you want, but I hope you know, let go Not because I gave up, but because... I love you.

Shi Mo's heart suddenly became empty, and his heart stopped beating suddenly. He looked at the back of the single figure in front of him, and wanted to grab it in a panic, but was stopped by the clerk.

"Lawyer Shi, may I ask you to represent the second-instance case of the financial loan contract dispute between Dongxin Asset Management Company and the two Wencheng companies, right?"

Shi Mo has met this clerk many times, and every time he sees her sweet smile, it makes him feel happy, and he can't help but sigh that there are girls like angels in this world, but now facing the same smile, Shi Mo is anxious Never see that face again.

"It's me, what's the matter?" His tone has never been blunt, but in contrast, his feet are full of active strength, ready to rush out.

"It's like this. The Supreme Court passed a judgment on this second-instance case a few days ago, because this is the first second-instance case taken over by the Supreme Court's First Circuit Court after its establishment. Our provincial TV station is going to record the sentencing process as a legal program promotion , we plan to organize both parties to appear in court tomorrow morning, do you think your time is convenient?"

Shi Mo's whole heart was on Xie Jincheng, and he just wanted to end the topic as soon as possible and go out to find Xie Jincheng, but he didn't feel any joy at this dream opportunity to appear on TV and increase his fame. He quickly glanced at the schedule, and immediately He replied: "If you have time, please tell me the time and place. I will be there on time tomorrow."

"Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, please arrive at the Seventh Tribunal on time."

"Okay. Is there anything else?"

"It's nothing, please go slowly."

Before the word "please" fell, Shi Mo had already stepped away.In front of the huge court, there were rows of cars exposed to the sun, with strong light reflected from the front of the car. Shi Mo couldn't help squinting his eyes, trying to find Xie Jincheng, but he couldn't find it. Their Maserati was still firmly in the local parking lot. on, sunbathing.Walking to the side of the car, the door was locked, and there was no one in the car. He felt a wave of uneasy panic, and immediately went to ask the bailiff on duty at the door: "Excuse me, have you seen a person who is about this tall and wearing a black suit leave? "

The bailiff on duty said without hesitation: "Yes, I just left not long ago."

Shi Mo was startled: "Which direction is he going?"

"It seems to be going over there."

"Thank you!" Shi Mo immediately walked towards the direction pointed by the bailiff, and at the same time took out his mobile phone to dial Xie Jincheng's number, but the cold "beeps" sarcastically rang again and again, and the call ended in the temperatureless system tone.

"Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unanswered, please try again later."

He dialed again without giving up, and the annoying system tone still gave him a terrible answer.He searched along that road over and over again, passing through every street and alley that Xie Jincheng might have walked through, but Xie Jincheng didn't show up, and the phone was still unanswered.

He seemed to be aware of what he was about to lose, and asked passers-by in a panic if they had seen Xie Jincheng, but all he got was despair.

One morning, he searched for it for a whole morning, but Xie Jincheng didn't reply, neither text message nor phone call.He once thought that Xie Jincheng would go back to the court to get the car, and then walked back with tired feet, only to find that the majestic Maserati was still wrapped in the golden clothes of the sun.

His heart seemed to be held high by something, and suddenly fell to the ground. He staggered and dragged his feet, and walked to the side of the car. There was still no one in the car, and it was steaming hot from the scorching sun.

He suddenly remembered the sealed file bag in his hand, which seemed to imply something.When he opened it, he froze there immediately, as if it had turned into rotten dead wood, his feet took root and rotted to the ground.

U-disk, bank.bank.card... Even the "Shimo Personal Transfer Agreement" that he was forced to write down, everything that was taken away by Xie Jincheng lay there intact.

And...a lone car key.

Shi Mo suddenly fell to the side of the car and lost his soul instantly.

Since Xie Jincheng left, he turned his mobile phone to silent mode, put it in his trouser pocket, and never opened it to look at it.He even bought cigarettes he had never smoked before, and sat by the riverside on the night the two became friends, quietly watching the floating river scene, smoking one after another the smelly cigarettes. I feel that this bitter and spicy way of indulgence is very comfortable, very pleasing, and sad to the bottom of my heart.

It took him two years to capture Shi Mo's body and mind step by step, but in these two years, Shi Mo never let go and confessed to him once.He doesn't expect the stubborn Shi Mo to say the kind of provocative words "I like you, I want to be with you", but he at least hopes that he can get a certain sense of security.

Shi Mo would always awkwardly stop his kisses, break away from his embrace, and say "the devil likes you", but never said a word that could make his heart beat faster.As time went by, he began to wonder if it was his domineering and strong force that forced Shi Mo to accept him who should not be accepted, whether it was his shamelessness embarrassing Shi Mo, or whether he should not have forced Shi Mo at all. Straight people like their gay selves.

So he let go calmly, let it go so freely and unrestrainedly, let it go so bitterly.

He, it's not because he doesn't love, but because he loves, so he respects...

Shi Mo received Xie Jincheng's WeChat, Xie Jincheng only said that there was something urgent to deal with, and then there was no news.Xie Jincheng didn't go home all night, Shi Mo sat on the sofa alone, staring at the TV that was playing something until dawn.

When the verdict was pronounced the next day, Shi Mo's mind was blank. He was like a walking dead, in a daze. Even though the presiding judge's voice was so loud that the trial court reverberated deafeningly, he didn't come back to his soul. It was only professional ethics that forced him to return Sit here and hold on until the last minute.

The verdict was over. From the beginning to the end, only when he heard "the appeal was dismissed and the original judgment was upheld" did his eyes shine, but it dimmed again in an instant.

He has grasped things that he couldn't grasp before, such as ability, fame, wealth and connections, but he is not happy at all, as if something has slipped through his fingers.

He doesn't understand.

His emotional world is a blank sheet of paper, ignorant and ignorant. It is only because of Xie Jincheng that it has become colorful, but this has not changed anything.It's like he didn't understand why Xie Jincheng's tone was so bleak when he agreed to his last request, why Xie Jincheng's expression was so sad when he said he was free, why Xie Jincheng left without saying goodbye, why he didn't want to see him...

He really doesn't understand.

In his narrow view of feelings, he believes that when two people are together, without quarrels and conflicts, being happy is happiness, so what else is needed?

The camera of the TV station turned to him. The pitch-black body was in sharp contrast to the enthusiastic smile of the reporter. The microphone was stretched out in front of him. He was stunned for a while, and then he came back to his senses under Li Jiaru's reminder.

"Lawyer Shi, what is your opinion on the verdict of this second-instance case?"
