Chapter 337 Teach Them How To Play

CHAPTER 337

In the same vein, the moment they showed the video in court and Attorney Longwei was ready to charge Liu Xueyi, a young lady rose to her feet and exited the courtroom.

She did not wish to remain there and listen to such rubbish happen anymore.

How the tables had turned from the guilt onto the innocent within the blink of an eye did not surprise her.

They were playing a game with dirty players. It was expected.

Now all that was left was to prove to them that wit could win still with the right means.

With her heels lightly clicking against the floor as she made her way out of the court premises, she pulled out her phone from her bag and placed a call.

After two successive rings, a voice answered from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Xiao Xin, to what do I owe this pleasure, couz?"

Her lips pulled back to one side, revealing a slyish grin on her face as she shook her head a bit and placed her other hand into her trouser pocket.

"What's with the grin or is it a smirk now, that is on your face?"

"Oh love," she tsked away and exhaled sharply. "Liu Chao Xing, you'd never believe the error that just went down in the courtroom."

Having her interest piqued, Liu Chao Xing's brows rose as she immediately sat up on her office chair and asked, "What happened? Fill me in."

"We've got dirty gamers and a corruptible judge."

"Ohh…" She heard her cousin's voice trailing off as she came down the stairs. "Is that so? And cousin Xueyi?"

"Gravely implicated," Liu Xiao Xin reported.

"Ouch. Someone is tampering with the Liu family by doing that."

"Aye. They do not know," she pressed her lips together and stopped when she got close to her car.

"And what is my little cunny bunny going to do about this?"

"You know me well. It is time to dig out every buried hatchet, it is time to investigate even down to the ruins, and more than anything, it is time to teach them how to play."

From where she was at her office, Liu Chao Xing's cheeks puffed in a playful smile as the devilish side in her was tempestuously pulled out by her cousin.

"That's why I love you. However, it is time to make them see they were never even a player, to begin with. Head over to my office, the game just got tougher, love."

"Aye. On my way."

She ended the call but as soon as she did, she was interrupted by the sound of the siren of an ambulance.

Her brows snapped together as her once shimmering eyes dimmed a fraction as she averted her gaze back to the courtroom she had left from outside the building.

Without a doubt she knew something bad must have happened but knowing her brother, he wouldn't be so reckless.

However, she could not say the same for her future sister-in-law.

Quickly she dialled another number and placed the phone on speaker.

"Report," Liu Xiao Xin's voice rang out deep and low.

"Ma'am, I am sorry to say but Ms. Kai just had a panic attack and collapsed in the courtroom."

"And my brother?"

"Shocked. The court is in disarray."

"Good. Ensure it stays that way. The trial ends now."

"Yes, ma."

*****

Whether or not they could handle themselves wasn't Liu Xiao Xin's worry, she knew her brother would be able to handle himself plus the distraction she had ensured was caused.

There was no way in hell anyone could tell her that something wrong wasn't going on and she was determined to find it.

From the courtroom, she visited her cousin as scheduled and both ladies made it their job duo fished out the loopholes in the whole incident.

On the other hand, Andromeda was rushed to the hospital quickly and thanks to the added distraction Liu Xiao Xin's people concocted, the hearing was adjourned once more for the final verdict.

Beatrice Zhang like Wu Bai was very happy with the way things had gone.

Not only were things ensured to set them free, as she had hoped, but Wu Bai was also cleared, Andromeda was humiliated and Liu Xueyi was framed.

If that wasn't luck and smartness on their side, she did not know what it would be.

However, she knew deep down some dirty play where rendered especially when Attorney Longwei came to meet her with an offer.

That day had been one of her happiest days when the latter got Wu Bai to ultimately agree to a share of his company to get Beatrice's link to help him get out of trouble.

With the way things were, he finally agreed. After all, should any mishap befall him, he was going to lose his company anyway.

And so the agreement was made. Beatrice Zhang got 30% of his company and was his partner, not just a top designer and his girlfriend.

Now that everything was done, she did not mind serving a few years' terms or having the judge perverse the law a bit and all she got was bail and pay money.

Whichever way it was seen as though, she was ready for punishment at the very least she won Andromeda and became more than just a pawn to Wu Bai.

In this case, he was used for her to serve the punishment for them both.

What she did not know was what other deal was made behind her back. While one was to help her, could everything that glittered be seen as gold?

Irrespective, she let herself be blinded by the luxury of her win and failed to see the bigger picture.

As soon as Andromeda was taken to the hospital, the doctors all rushed in to check up on her considering Liu Xueyi's friend was not around.

As much as he did not want them to and wished to wait, he could not risk her life any longer and did so.

Letting out a deep sigh, he raked his fingers through his hair, leaving them in a scattered state as his eyes lifted to the door of Andromeda's ward the moment he heard a sound and it opened.
