After returning from Gulan Island, Chenxi knew what happened to Fan Yaozong without anyone telling him.

The news on the TV scrolled, Jiangtian Group had sued Fan Yaozong for defamation, extortion and other crimes, and invited well-known lawyer Yang Yuefeng to sit in the office.Moreover, according to people familiar with the matter, the son-in-law and granddaughter of Zhang Lao, a political figure known as the "tumbler", were involved and were prosecuted for the same crime.

Zhang Lao wished to sever ties with Cheng Rongcai, but he had to clean up the mess.

Anyone who plays politics knows in their hearts that once there is a stain on their body, no matter how clean the other ground is, they will be caught. What's more, Mr. Zhang has been in politics for many years, how can there be no old things?Mr. Zhang's staff members were not fools, and they all advised Mr. Zhang not to fall into the quagmire.

But the old man had to listen to his daughter's begging, so he had no choice but to help find a lawyer, so He Haoyuan was approached like this.

Of course He Haoyuan heard about this incident, but unexpectedly Mr. Zhang came to him.

Although He Haoyuan's law firm is also well-known, it has only been opened for a short time after all. Compared with Yang Yuehua's iron mouth that has been famous for many years, its brilliance is weak.For Mr. Zhang to come in person, He Haoyuan was a little flattered.How did he know that many lawyers did not dare to take the case because they knew that their opponent was Yang Yuefeng.

"Mr. Zhang, it's a great honor for me, a little lawyer, to be favored by you. I wonder why you are here this time?" Although I know the reason, I still have to talk about the scene.

Mr. Zhang looked at the young man in front of him who knew how to speak properly, and when he thought of his son-in-law, he sighed: "Lawyer He, I'm not afraid of your jokes. It's my son-in-law's fault that I brought my granddaughter along." Learn well, but as an elder, how can I really watch the juniors go to jail, so I came to ask you for help. Do you think the chances of winning this lawsuit are high?"

He Haoyuan told the truth: "The other party invited Yang Yuefeng, and now the public opinion is not on this side. I think the chance of winning this case is unlikely."

Mr. Zhang also knew this truth, pondered for a moment and said: "My old man doesn't have that much energy, I leave this matter to you, just do your best. Sigh!"

The court had a short period of time between the filing of the case and the opening of the trial. Jiang Mingcheng was not idle. He helped Chenxi and Yangyang make breakfast with hot milk in the morning, and took Yangyang out to play after Chenxi went to bed at noon. He was even busier at night. After putting the eldest son to sleep, he had to give Chenxi a massage, and comfort the unborn two sons by the way.

Four and a half months pregnant, Chenxi not only tends to have calf cramps at night, but now her calf is swollen.When I asked the doctor, it turned out that the food was too salty.Therefore, Chen Xi asked the nanny to cook separately.

That night, the room was stuffy, but the air-conditioned room was cool and pleasant.After Jiang Mingcheng played a few games of chess with Yang Yang, he couldn't wait to urge the child to take a bath and go to bed.

Yang Yang hasn't had enough fun yet, so he's naturally not happy. Jiang Mingcheng frightened him and said, "Children who don't get enough sleep won't grow taller. Doesn't Yang Yang want to grow taller with Dad?"

Yang Yang hesitated for a moment, finally dropped the chess pieces reluctantly, put away the chessboard, and obediently went to take a shower.

Chen Xi jokingly said, "I'm quite skilled at raising children."

Jiang Mingcheng smiled and stroked Chen Xi's belly through his clothes: "Isn't this a pavement for the future? In a few months, we still have two little guys to coax. I hope to be as sensible as Yang Yang." Chen Xi's stomach has really grown recently. Less fleshy, soft and elastic to the touch.

Jiang Mingcheng's hand brushed against his stomach, and Chen Xi keenly sensed something strange in his stomach, and froze all of a sudden.

Jiang Mingcheng asked nervously, "What's the matter?"

Chen Xi held Jiang Mingcheng's hand and pressed it to his navel, "Your son moved just now."

"Really?" Jiang Mingcheng dubiously kept his hand on Chen Xi's abdomen, feeling it carefully. Suddenly, the belly under his hand moved slightly, and Jiang Mingcheng was startled. He raised his head and said in a daze: "He moved, It really moved!"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Why are you making such a fuss? Haven't you read the pregnancy manual given by Dr. Min? The baby is now seventeen weeks old, and the fetal movements are normal."

"How do you feel? Does it hurt?" Jiang Mingcheng asked.The two little guys were writhing in their stomachs, unable to imagine what Chen Xi felt like.

Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "It hurts, it doesn't hurt, the baby is not active now, if you insist, it looks like a fish is swimming."

Jiang Mingcheng: "..." What does it feel like to have a fish swimming in your stomach?Still unimaginable.

After Yang Yang took a shower, he rushed out and lay down on Chen Xi's belly to talk to his younger brothers. This is a habit he has developed in recent days.Knowing that the younger brothers can move, Lai stays by Chenxi's side and doesn't want to leave.

"Stop playing, go to sleep," Jiang Mingcheng urged again.

Yang Yang looked at Chen Xi with hopeful eyes: "I want to sleep with my father today."

Jiang Mingcheng continued to coax, "Man, why are you still sleeping with your father when you are five years old?" In fact, in order not to touch Chen Xi's belly, Yang Yang hadn't slept with his father for a long time.

Yang Yang didn't speak, but he protested silently.

Chen Xi said: "Stop arguing, Yang Yang will sleep here today, the bed is so big, you won't be afraid to bump into it."

Jiang Mingcheng was helpless, and Yang Yang cheered.The "war" between Jiang Mingcheng and his son will always end in failure.

***

In July, the Jinshi Court opened to hear the case, but only relatives related to the plaintiff and the defendant were allowed to enter.

As the plaintiff, Jiang Mingcheng entrusted lawyer Yang Yuefeng to appear in court.But he still had to go to hear the case. He couldn't feel at ease when he didn't see Fan Yaozong and the others were convicted and sentenced.

The weather was hot, and Jiang Mingcheng couldn't bear Chenxi's hard work outside, so he didn't want him to follow him to the court.But Chen Xi is determined to go to the trial.

There is no doubt that someone from Fan Yaozong's side also came.But it wasn't Fan Dongqi and Liao Xiangmei, but Fan Dongqi and Fan Yueling.

As soon as Fan Yueling saw Chenxi, she immediately cursed: "Fan Chenxi, you are a wolf, that's how you treat your cousin? Do you know why your uncle and aunt didn't come? Your uncle had a heart attack the day before yesterday and went to the hospital. You want to make the whole family miserable before you give up?"

With a gloomy face, Jiang Mingcheng protected Chen Xi by his side to prevent accidents, and waved to the staff over there.

Fan Yueling was crying while scolding, and Fan Dongqi comforted him: "Sister, don't tell him these things, people like him won't soften your heart. He followed a man as a fool and was taken care of by others. Our family has never been so humiliated." people."

The staff member had already come to the front and said in a strong tone: "Please abide by the court trial regulations, and don't make noise."

Fan Dongqi rolled his eyes, and supported Fan Yueling to sit in the auditorium on the appellee's side.

Chen Xi didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and turned a deaf ear to the two's accusations.Frozen three feet is not a day's cold, they have never treated him as a family member, and now it may have escalated into hatred, right?

The central air conditioner in the hall was on, and the temperature was a little low. Jiang Mingcheng carefully put on a thin coat for Chen Xi.

Chen Xi pinched the corner of her clothes and laughed at herself: "If I do something wrong, I have to bear the consequences."

He is not the God that foreigners believe in, and he doesn't have that much benevolence.Fan Yaozong repeatedly harmed others, if he didn't teach him a lesson, there would probably be more imitators in this world.

But all successful people have to pay a certain price, which ordinary people can't even imagine.Jiang Mingcheng was a successful businessman, but it wasn't because Mr. Jiang handed over Jiang Tian to him that he succeeded.Chen Xi asked him about his previous life. Jiang Mingcheng spoke concisely and said lightly that he had very little free time and spent most of his time at the company.

This kind of tedious answer is far from the life of a rich man in his heart.But the fact is true. Kangtai once said that when they were studying abroad, others spent eight hours reading, and Mingcheng basically read books except for sleeping.Because only in this way can we meet Grandpa's request and return to China as soon as possible to help Grandpa manage the company.

A person can never succeed by hurting others. Fan Yaozong wants to achieve success in his career, Cheng Rongcai is greedy and wants to get more wealth, but the two don't want to work hard, but want to take shortcuts.But this shortcut does not lead to the destination, but to the cliff.

Chen Xi insisted on coming this time, and had no other intentions.This matter has something to do with him, he doesn't want to stand behind Mingcheng to be protected all the time, he can't escape what he should know.

***

When He Haoyuan saw Chenxi and Jiang Mingcheng appear together, he immediately stopped what he was doing.He carefully observed the changes in Chen Xi, Chen Xi seemed to be a little fatter, but his complexion was very good.Looking at his interaction with Jiang Mingcheng again, He Haoyuan lowered his head knowingly.It turned out that CEO Jiang Tian married Chen Xi.

The court is officially opened, with serious judges and tit-for-tat lawyers.

Maybe this case is a certainty, maybe Yang Yuefeng is too capable, maybe the appearance of Chenxi disturbed He Haoyuan's thinking, in short, there is no suspense in the case, Fan Yaozong's charges were proved, and because of the seriousness of the circumstances, he was sentenced to five years in prison.Cheng Rongcai and Cheng Jiayin lived together for four years and the other for two years.

Fan Yaozong had been absent-minded during the trial. The moment the judge read out the sentence, he jumped up like a stuck machine suddenly restarting work, and said in horror: "I don't want to go to jail, who will rescue me? Auntie, my father and mother What? Fan Chenxi, I was wrong, I was wrong, I will never spread rumors again, please let them let me out, I will kowtow to you, please."

Fan Yueling was shedding tears. After all, it was her nephew who had seen her eldest since she was a child. Seeing his fate like this, she couldn't help being sad.

***

After leaving the gate of the court, it was scorching summer, but it made Chen Xi feel warm.After a while in the Inquisition, his hands and feet were cold.

Just as he was about to follow Jiang Mingcheng into the car, he was stopped by someone from behind. Chen Xi turned around and looked over suspiciously. It was the other party's

Defense counsel.

Resisting the cold gaze from the side, He Haoyuan trotted forward and greeted with a smile: "Chen Xi, I am He Haoyuan, you will not forget my appearance again, right?"

Chen Xi said honestly, "Oh? So it's Mr. He, I really didn't recognize it."

He Haoyuan appeared in court today, dressed very formally, and his hair was combed extremely neatly, and in court just now, he was wearing the uniform of a lawyer in court.Chen Xi had only seen him twice, both times when he was in a leisurely state. When he glanced at him suddenly, he felt familiar, but did not recognize him.

He Haoyuan's heart ached from Chen Xi's honesty, the smile on his face froze for a moment, and he continued: "Long time no see, you invited me to dinner last time we met, now I am lucky enough to invite you to dinner too? "

Jiang Mingcheng was upset with this unknown He Haoyuan, but his face was very indifferent, and he casually put his hand on Chen Xi's shoulder.

Chenxi embarrassedly thought of the last time he invited someone to dinner, "Last time, it was to thank you for helping me find Yangyang, and I went to eat fast food. How dare you let Mr. He spend money this time." And because he won the lucky audience award, I didn't pay the last penny, so it's really hard to be cheeky now.

He Haoyuan smiled and said: "Then take it as my thank you for teaching me how to cook. You have to go for this meal. Mr. Jiang will go too?"

Speaking of this, Chen Xi couldn't refuse, so she naturally turned to ask Jiang Mingcheng's opinion.

"Since Lawyer He kindly invites you, we, my husband and I, would rather be obedient than respectful." Jiang Mingcheng lowered his eyes, covered by slender eyelashes, making it impossible to understand his thoughts.

He Haoyuan drove in front and led the way, making several turns in the alley, and finally arrived in front of a restaurant.

"Rough tea and light food?" Chen Xi read the name of the sign hanging on the vermilion gate, and felt that the name of the restaurant was quite different.

He Haoyuan parked the car, walked over and said, "I have been here with customers before, and I think the food tastes good here, and it pays attention to ecological health. Let's go in? Be careful that there is a threshold here."

He Haoyuan wanted to help Chenxi, but he was taken a step ahead. Jiang Mingcheng naturally held Chenxi's waist and said, "Pay attention to the bottom of your feet, and be careful not to fall."

"Understood, I'm not a child," Chen Xi said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.The two babies in the belly forced Jiang Mingcheng's "cool boy" into a "nagging boy".

He Haoyuan walked behind the two of them, and smiled bitterly, wondering if he was masturbating himself by inviting them to dinner today?Seeing someone he never forgets in love with his lover really tests his heart.Although he has already given up, but seeing Chen Xi again, he still wants to spend more time with him, which can be regarded as his little selfishness.

"The almond biscuits here are very delicious. You have to try them later. By the way, when did you come to Jinshi? Is Yangyang here?" He Haoyuan ordered a few dishes very skillfully, and then handed over the menu to Jiang Mingcheng chatted with Chen Xi while the food was being served.

"I only brought Yangyang to the gold market this spring. Don't order so much. There are only three of us, and we can't finish it." Chen Xi answered He Haoyuan's question in the first half of the sentence, and naturally said it to Jiang Mingcheng.

Jiang Mingcheng smiled and said, "Then let's have a pineapple sweet and sour pork. You must like it."

He Haoyuan asked: "Chen Xi likes sweet and sour?"

Chen Xi smiled unnaturally: "I like it very much recently, you don't have to worry about me, just give me some shredded pork with sauerkraut."

Jiang Mingcheng ruthlessly denied it: "No, have you forgotten what Dr. Min said? Sauerkraut is a kind of pickled vegetable. The salt content is too high, and you are prone to edema."

Chen Xi pouted, but did not refute.Thinking of the taste of sauerkraut, Chen Xi could only swallow her saliva.

He Haoyuan asked with concern: "Chen Xi, are you sick? Why are you swollen?"

Chen Xi: "...Well, it's a disease that causes edema in the legs if you eat too much salt!"

He Haoyuan: "..." What kind of disease is this?

***

He Haoyuan is an adult who understands the ways of the world, so it is naturally impossible for him to behave like Meng Lang during this meal.Moreover, he knew in his heart that Chen Xi would never be his in this life.Not only because he gave up on his own initiative, but because he could see that Chen Xi was living happily.

After a meal, the guests and the host had a good time, and it was already one o'clock in the afternoon when they walked out of the restaurant.

Chenxi's biological clock started to work, Haqie called one after another, but did not forget to politely thank He Haoyuan: "Today's meal is delicious, thank you Mr. He, let Mingcheng and I treat you to dinner next time."

He Haoyuan smiled humorously: "If you really thank me, you must remember my appearance, so that you don't know me next time I stand in front of you."

Chen Xi said embarrassedly: "How can I? I will definitely not forget this time."

He Haoyuan smiled happily after hearing this, while Jiang Mingcheng's face darkened.

***

After the two parties said goodbye, Chen Xi sat in the car, leaning on Jiang Mingcheng's shoulder and squinting his eyes for a nap. Jiang Mingcheng looked at him for a while, then poked his cheek and said, "You are not allowed to remember other men."

Chen Xi waved her hand and muttered, "Don't make noise, I'm sleepy."

Jiang Mingcheng was discouraged.
