Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1369 - Turn Against

Chapter 1369: Turn Against

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

That was exactly what Cai Shengnan had said to Gu Nianzhi earlier.

Her mouth full of bitterness, Cai Shengnan felt like she was chewing on a piece of Coptis.

However, the photos on her phone were still flashing in front of her eyes. She didn’t dare to show any dissatisfaction.

“Miss Gu, what do you want?” Cai Shengnan held the phone in one hand and rubbed her forehead with the other. “I admit defeat. I quit. I’ll no longer represent Luo Jialan. Can you let me go now?”

“Let you go?” Gu Nianzhi sat up from the bed and chuckled. “That’s not what you said yesterday.”

Cai Shengnan’s face burned.

It didn’t feel good to be blackmailed, especially by someone she had once looked down on. It was a hundred times worse.

But what could she do?

She could only bow her head and admit defeat.

“Miss Gu, I apologize. I was wrong yesterday. I’ve already said it, I’m out...”

“That won’t do. Will you be able to solve this by quitting?” Gu Nianzhi scoffed. “How can it be so easy? Cai Shengnan, you’ve really disappointed me.”

“Then what do you want me to do?” Cai Shengnan stopped in front of the window and looked at the clear sky outside. The sun was too bright, so she used the back of her hand to block it.

“Do you still need me to teach you that?” Gu Nianzhi’s voice turned cold, “Did Luo Jialan come up with this trick on her own, or was it suggested by someone else? I don’t want to pursue it. I only want this matter to be resolved satisfactorily. If my people are even slightly involved, I won’t hold back.”

Cai Shengnan discerned the hidden meaning in Gu Nianzhi’s words. Huo Shaoheng was to be completely disassociated, and they weren’t even allowed to mention his name. She knew how important Huo Shaoheng was to Gu Nianzhi.

In order to protect her fiancé, Gu Nianzhi was willing to take the risk and do the dirty work.

Cai Shengnan said with an impassive expression, “Then what guarantee do I have? I’ll help you settle this, but what if you don’t keep your promise?”

Gu Nianzhi smiled. “I’ll send you photos and videos using my own account. If I don’t keep my promise, you can just take this thing and sue me. I’m also a person who cares about my reputation. I wouldn’t be so stupid to take out something like this that was obtained through illegal means. I’d kill a thousand enemies and injure myself eight hundred times over.”

Cai Shengnan looked at her phone and came back to her senses.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t hide the origin of these things at all. This was probably the condition of the exchange with her.

Cai Shengnan didn’t believe in swearing, but she believed in this kind of evidence that could be used as evidence in court.

Gu Nianzhi used her phone to send over the photos that she had obtained through improper means to threaten Cai Shengnan. If Cai Shengnan wanted to sue, she could do so.

Of course, Cai Shengnan wouldn’t be so stupid as to really go to court to sue Gu Nianzhi.

As long as Gu Nianzhi didn’t release the photos and videos, Cai Shengnan had no need for “mutual destruction” with her.

Therefore, the two of them had reached a compromise and balance in this matter.

Neither of them was afraid that the other would really spill the beans.

Because that would be have a fight-to-the-death ending.

This wasn’t what they wanted.

Cai Shengnan was relieved. She thought about it and said, “The thing on that dress doesn’t belong to Major General Huo. Luo Jialan has admitted it herself. If you want to do a DNA test, you would win.”

“You don’t have to tell me that.” Gu Nianzhi flicked her fingernails with a thud. She said nonchalantly, “You shouldn’t avoid the obvious. I don’t need to teach you how to do it.”

Cai Shengnan had been hoping to get away with it, but now it was all gone.

She nodded. “I understand. After this case is over, I’ll go back to the states and never come back.”

There were too many capable people in the Huaxia Empire. It would be better for her to return to the states and spend the rest of her life there.

“I don’t care what you do, but we have to put an end to this whole thing with Luo Jialan.” Gu Nianzhi’s expression changed. “I don’t want to see any more innocent people involved in this matter.”

“I’ll think of something,” Cai Shengnan said meaningfully. “Luo Jialan’s ‘hero pool’ is very deep. I can’t find out which man the thing on her dress belongs to for the time being.”

Luo Jialan’s ‘hero pool’ is very deep?

Gu Nianzhi was stunned for a moment before she realized what was going on. Her face turned red instantly.

Cai Shengnan was indeed a great lawyer from the United States. She had a unique way of speaking.

..

After ending the call with Gu Nianzhi, Cai Shengnan was alone in the study while trying to figure out how to solve the problem.

Luo Jialan had become too obsessed, and had almost dragged her down.

The anger that Cai Shengnan had accumulated with Gu Nianzhi was all directed at Luo Jialan.

As Luo Jialan’s lawyer, it was too easy for Cai Shengnan to mess with her.

She called Luo Jialan first and asked her to come to her villa in Yu Shan to discuss the new evidence that would be handed over to the court today.

Luo Jialan drove over happily.

When she arrived at Cai Shengnan’s study, she saw Cai Shengnan sitting behind her desk with a serious expression on her face.

She sat down in front of her with a smile and said, “Lawyer Cai, why do you look like that? Who owes you money?”

Cai Shengnan didn’t smile. She placed the half-length, plastic-wrapped skirt that was used as evidence on the desk and said, “Miss Luo, let me ask you one more time. Does the thing on this skirt really belong to the fiancé of the prosecution’s lawyer, Gu Nianzhi?”

Luo Jialan raised an eyebrow in surprise. “What’s wrong? What happened?”

“... the evidence submitted to the court can not only state your accusation, but also have logical proof. For example, the semen stains on this skirt. If you say it belongs to Gu Nianzhi’s fiancé, then you have to produce a DNA proof. Otherwise, the court won’t accept it.”

Why did that sound different from what she said yesterday?

Luo Jialan mumbled to herself and frowned. “Aren’t we going to create a buzz on Weibo? Why are we doing a DNA test?”

“... But if you don’t hand it over to the court, how will the court start another trial?” Cai Shengnan rapped her fingers on the desk. “If there’s no new evidence, the court won’t try it again. Then the verdict will be based on the results of the previous trial. Do you really want to go to jail?”

“Of course not!” Luo Jialan shook her head quickly and said anxiously, “Lawyer Cai, you have to help me. You said yesterday...”

“I was negotiating with the prosecution’s lawyer yesterday, so of course I have to be realistic. But if I really want to go to court, I can’t just play games.” Cai Shengnan threatened Luo Jialan with half-truths.

Actually, she could just hand over the dress as evidence and let the prosecution’s lawyer prove that the dress had nothing to do with Huo Shaoheng.

Unfortunately, if she did that, Huo Shaoheng would be pushed into the limelight. This was exactly what Gu Nianzhi didn’t want to see happen.

She would definitely fall out with her, and Cai Shengnan’s father’s reputation and career would be ruined.

Therefore, Cai Shengnan had already changed her mind.

“Tell me the truth. Whose semen is this on the dress?” Cai Shengnan pretended to be interested and confided in Luo Jialan.

Luo Jialan stammered for a long time and said,”... We really can’t hand it over to the court directly? How about we report it to the court with our real names on Weibo first?”

Cai Shengnan couldn’t help but twitch her eyebrows.

That move was really vicious.

Many people would immediately believe it when they saw the “real name report”...

“Real name report? How do you plan to report it with your real name? Your Weibo account?” Cai Shengnan said calmly, “Show me your Weibo account.”

Luo Jialan looked uncomfortable and said with an embarrassed smile, “Doesn’t lawyer Cai have a Weibo account? Wouldn’t it be more convincing if I used your Weibo Account?”

What the F * ck!

Cai Shengnan was about to die from anger.

She actually wanted to swindle her?

She looked at her computer with an impassive expression and adjusted the camera, then calmly said, “It’s not that I can’t use my Weibo account, but as your lawyer, I have the right to know what’s going on with that dress of yours. Whose is it? Also, I’ve looked into the matter that you mentioned back then, and there are some discrepancies in some of the details.”

Luo Jialan was impatient. She scoffed and said, “I already said it’s not Major General Huo’s, so why are you still asking? It turns out that I was wrong about lawyer Cai. A lawyer who came back from the United States only has so much courage!”

“Since you know it’s not Huo Shaoheng’s, why are you still using my Weibo account to falsely accuse him to create a scandal?” Cai Shengnan recorded what she wanted and immediately turned hostile. “Luo Jialan, who would swindle their lawyer like that?”

Luo Jialan was slightly startled. “Lawyer Cai, what are you talking about? I gave you an advance payment of six million US dollars!”

Cai Shengnan stood up in a flash and said with a sullen expression on her face. “You can’t humiliate my professionalism and professional ethics! My professionalism and professional ethics are priceless!”

Luo Jialan also stood up and said blankly, “Lawyer Cai, I don’t understand what you mean.”

Cai Shengnan looked up at Luo Jialan and calmed down, “Miss Luo, in view of what you said just now, I can no longer act as your lawyer. I will transfer the balance of your advance, after deducting the actual lawyer fees, back to your bank account. I advise you not to break the law. Falsely accusing others in a criminal case is a felony. That’s all I have to say. I hope you can go back to the right path.”

After Cai Shengnan finished speaking righteously, she pressed the stop button on the camera, then, she looked up at the dumbfounded Luo Jialan and said, “I’ve recorded everything you just said. If you still want to use that trick, I’ll send the video to the relevant people.”

Only then did Luo Jialan realize that she had been tricked by Cai Shengnan, and she immediately lost her temper.

“Cai Shengnan! You’ve gone too far! You actually set me up! I’m going to file a complaint!” Luo Jialan pounced over and snatched the plastic-sealed skirt.

However, as she tried to snatch it, the skirt fell out from the translucent plastic seal. Turns out that Cai Shengnan had already cut a hole in it.

And on Cai Shengnan’s desk, an inkstone filled with freshly ground ink had unknowingly appeared.

The skirt fell right on top of the Inkstone.

The red skirt with white flowers was immediately stained with large amounts of ink.

Luo Jialan’s hands were also stained with ink. It was wet, black, and sticky.

She subconsciously rubbed her hands against the skirt, and the entire skirt was instantly smudged beyond recognition.

Looking at the skirt again, she saw that even if there were semen stains, it was still so dirty that it was hard to believe that this was “evidence of a crime”.

Was she going to convince others that someone had a “fetish” for sitting on ink while having sex?

The entire evidence became extremely comical and ridiculous.

Luo Jialan was so angry that her eyes grew red.

Cai Shengnan was cutting her off!

Originally, it wouldn’t have been difficult for her to get another dress even after it got dirty.

However, that video just now had cut off her off.

Even if she got another hundred dresses, that video would be enough to prove that she was faking it!

Luo Jialan couldn’t help it any longer. She stretched out her hand and slapped Cai Shengnan across the face.

Cai Shengnan didn’t dodge at all. She held her phone and turned on the video camera while allowing Luo Jialan to beat her until her face was blue and purple. In the end, she “lost her balance”and fell headfirst into the corner of the desk, knocking her head and making it bleed.

Luo Jialan couldn’t control her anger. After beating Cai Shengnan fiercely, she finally felt relieved. Pointing at Cai Shengnan, who was rolling on the ground with her head in her hands, she said, “If you don’t accept the lawsuit, someone else will!” As she said that, she took the skirt stained with ink and left angrily.

Cai Shengnan raised her head from the ground and looked at Luo Jialan’s back contemptuously. Then she took out her phone and called the police.

“Is this 110? I was beaten up by my client just now. I can’t move now. Please rescue me!”
