Too Bad I Take Things Seriously

Chapter 786: Chapter 279 Outrageous! Sending a teammate in with your own hands!_4

Otherwise, with just that sentence, he would have likely been warned by the bailiff right in the courtroom.

A desperate move?

Qin Mu watched this scene, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly. He was equally speechless.

This scene... was the most absurd one he had ever seen among all his opponents. Only one night had passed, and they had sent a teammate straight to prison. Even the confession letter was prepared. Obviously, the other party planned to use this tactic to completely cut off their hopes and quickly end the lawsuit. Because... the other party simply could not explain the whereabouts of that sum of money. So, they had opted to use a person as a scapegoat to block the court’s suspicion and investigation. Otherwise, they would eventually expose flaws if they attempted to conceal it in any other way. With someone confessing, the gap was considered closed.

"What did he say? What did he say?"

Meanwhile, Zhang Qingyuan on the defendant’s bench was completely confused and hastily tugged on Chen Tiankuo’s sleeve. The words George had just spoken... he hadn’t understood a single one.

Chen Tiankuo gave a bitter smile and dutifully served as the translator, repeating what George had just said.

"HISS!!"

Zhang Qingyuan, after hearing it, widened his eyes and gasped. He couldn’t utter a word for a long moment. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

No wonder he’d noticed one of the opposing members was missing; it turned out he’d already been sent to prison. Just one night. So resolute! Indeed, unheard-of and unseen!

In the courtroom, the judge, a man over sixty, was also somewhat astounded. However, having weathered many storms, he quickly calmed down. He took Zhao Wan’s confession letter and examined it carefully. Then, inspecting the trail of the vanished donation funds once more, his brow furrowed.

These documents... were watertight, all indicating that Zhao Wan had embezzled the money. This led to the donated funds being unaccounted for. George’s side had also completely explained the destination of these funds.

BANG—

He struck the gavel, looking down at the people below. His gaze fell on Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua as he asked, "The plaintiff has already shown where the donation funds went. Due to an internal error, the funds were misappropriated. The law will certainly severely punish such criminal acts. Do you have any questions now?"

He was referring to the unfinished donation matters in the donation agreement. The agreement had been signed and came into effect from that moment. Regardless of what happened, the stipulations in the agreement had to be fulfilled. The court had validated that the content of the agreement was completely legal and effective.

As a judge, he still believed Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua needed to continue making payments to fulfill the donation agreement. Yesterday, Zhang Qingyuan’s side had raised doubts about the donation, and these doubts had now been publicly addressed. As for pursuing the misappropriated funds... that would be another case.

"Your Honor, we still demand the other party continue to pay the forty thousand and compensate thirty thousand for emotional distress!"

Simultaneously, George stood up again, pressing the attack. "The agreement is valid! The other party has been making excuses to delay payment, which is truly an unscrupulous act. I earnestly request that Your Honor discern the truth and uphold the sanctity and importance of contractual spirit!"

He had no intention of giving Qin Mu’s side any chance. From the start of the second hearing, he demanded they continue the donation payments and pay compensation.

"What did he say? What did he say?"

Zhang Qingyuan, observing George’s passionate demeanor, quickly looked to Chen Tiankuo for help.

Chen Tiankuo: "..."

These past few days, what he’d heard most was Old Zhang’s "What did he say?" His ears were practically calloused from it.

Afterward, he emotionlessly translated George’s words once more.

Zhang Qingyuan immediately exclaimed, "Bullshit! They’ve even misappropriated the donation money, and they still want me to donate? Do they think I’m old and easy to bully? Knowing it’s a trap, should I still jump in?"

He glared at George and Xu Liming, furious. This had already conclusively proven their misappropriation of funds. It wasn’t a genuine donation at all. He wouldn’t donate the money unless he had a screw loose!
