Each day, Xiao Yunhua felt more and more stressed because her trial was happening and she didn"t know whether or not she was going to be found guilty with the false evidence piled against her. And with Zhou Ming quiet and not telling her anything, she grew more nervous by the second. She wanted to summon Xiao Taotao to use her points, but endured until the day happened. By this time, it was too late for her to even use her points because she had pa.s.sed the little fairy"s time limit.
"You"ll be fine. Don"t worry." His words of a.s.surance snapped her out of her thoughts and she looked at him. She had dressed formally with a grey, striped pantsuit and black loafer heels. Her long hair was pulled in a sleek ponytail and small, diamond hoops along with a simple but expensive watch were paired as accessories. Her makeup was very light and refres.h.i.+ng. Her final look was business-like yet suitable for where she was going. Her beauty stunned many when she appeared in the courtroom.

Her enhanced senses allowed her to hear every whisper that was about her. Still, she activated her calming effect and walked forward with expressionlessly with Zhou Ming beside her. Taking her place, she immedi noticed Kang Yiyi along with Ling Qiu beside her. Next to them was a man that Xiao Yunhua had never seen in her life, but he was incredibly handsome; however, Zhou Ming was much more good-looking in her eyes.
She turned her head and noticed that the Zhou family was slowly arriving as well, which consisted of the Zhou Elder and Eldress, the three Zhou brothers, as well as Zhou Yaoyao and her mother trailing behind the old lady. When Xiao Yunhua"s honey-colored eyes met the snake-like eyes of Zhou Eldress, she noticed a small smile on the wrinkled face of the woman. It was like she expected for all of this to happen.
Xiao Yunhua didn"t know that she did know about the entire situation. Zhou Yaoyao sat next to her grandmother and whispered, "This is it, grandma. Yiyi says there"s no way of countering everything they"ve prepared. She says that they don"t even know what has been prepared in the first place."
Zhou Eldress looked at her useless granddaughter. She couldn"t be the next Zhou heir due to her spoiled nature, but for once, she hadn"t been completely useless. She had reported everything that Kang Yiyi had done and in return, Zhou Eldress promised to increase her inheritance of the Zhou fortune. She looked at the blonde Zhou Lu who had gone to sit next to his eldest brother. The naïve boy was the perfect candidate for the next heir due to his simplemindedness. She had planted the seed in the mind of Zhou Elder for a while now and when Zhou Ming began to date the girl that Zhou Elder despised, the idea began to grow more.
She patiently waited to see the downfall of the girl who had been too meddlesome by the actions of the bratty Kang granddaughter. Seeing how infatuated she was with Zhou Feng, she wasn"t surprised the lengths that the girl had gone to.
Her eyes fell on the man next to Kang Yiyi and she frowned. She remembered Jing Xue that had disappeared mysteriously. The girl had wanted a hefty price to annihilate Zhou Ming and promised that she would do it, but she had gone to who knows where without giving her any information. Zhou Eldress wanted to blacklist her for taking the money and running off, but seeing how Jing Xue came from the infamous Jing family, she just shrugged it off as a loss she was never to get back. This just meant that she needed to find another way of getting rid of Zhou Ming.
Ling Qiu pulled out her phone and her tapped on Qiang Yue"s name. He picked up and didn"t even bother greeting her.
"Last chance for you to be here today." She softly murmured to the man she loved. All this just because he was bewitched by a harlot.
"I can"t believe you"re doing this..." Qiang Yue coldly replied, ignoring her words. He hung up after he noticed that she wasn"t going to answer his words, either.
Finally, she checked the time on her phone and Kang Yiyi happily whispered, "It"s time."
