The lawyer put on a delighted smile, "I understand, and Iâll convey this message back."
As soon as she turned around, the lawyer restrained all her smiles. No matter how much benefit she could bring, it couldnât outweigh the scandalâs damage.
One wonders where she got her confidence from.
...
Since Su Xiaocai, the big boss, covered all of the lawyerâs expenses, people kept coming to Fei Yi to submit evidence.
Some were hidden, even from small wealthy families, but they provided assistance without any burden.
Perhaps they wanted to curry favor with Su Xiaocai, or they were simply fed up.
Although this information wasnât enough as key evidence to be submitted to court, it was like pushing a fallen wall. Coupled with Xue Huiyiâs adopted status, it made things worse.
Even if Xue Huiyi came out of prison unscathed, she would have to live under a different name.
Of course, Xue Huiyi couldnât possibly come out unscathed.
Su Xiaocai was very satisfied with the current outcome.
Fei Yi: "According to the current evidence, Xue Huiyi is likely to be sentenced to thirty to forty years. Are you sure thatâs enough?"
"Of course." Su Xiaocai wouldnât let Xue Huiyi escape a fate worse than death, but thereâs no rush; one must be patient in doing things.
A death sentence in court would be quite a relief for Xue Huiyi.
Not to mention, the court trial hasnât even started yet, so just wait.
When Xue Huiyi was captured and taken to the detention center, the school coach was both angry and anxious, while the school forum was full of sarcasm about his so-called insightful judgment, picking the trash out of everything.
The reputation that was good as gold was completely ruined. It was he who insisted Xue Huiyi could play a major role in the team, and by major role, he meant that Xue Huiyi could provide full financial support in the final round.
Now that she was detained, it greatly affected the training state of the team members.
No matter how bad Senior Sister Xue was, she was still a Mecha Designer who could give modification suggestions.
Without her, the teamâs Maintenance Master, her follower, couldnât make up his mind.
With their spirits down, the teamâs disbandment was not far off.
The leaders of the Military Training School secretly felt fortunate that the team didnât carry the schoolâs name; otherwise, it would have been a disaster.
So embarrassing.
The outside world would only see it as a school dereliction, and most people would blame and criticize the management for inaction.
The principal sat with Mei Lan, lamenting.
Mei Lan was shocked and regretful, "I was scared to death, afraid that something might happen to Su Xiaocai at this time."
Something happening to Su Xiaocai would be much more serious than to Xue Huiyi.
Xue Huiyi was just an internet-famous student, with some ability and a family background.
Su Xiaocai was the core of the competition.
Even now, Mei Lanâs mind echoed with Su Xiaocaiâs words: never invite her to any occasion where Xue Huiyi shows up.
That was very true; Xue Huiyi and Su Xiaocai were natural enemies.
Xue Huiyi was bent on destroying Su Xiaocai, but Su Xiaocai would never compromise and struck back against Xue Huiyi.
Yet victory often goes to those who are prepared.
In the battle against Xue Huiyi, Su Xiaocai was clearly the ever-victorious general.
"Principal, tell me, did you know early on that Xue would get embroiled in lawsuits, so you didnât put the coach under the schoolâs name?"
Who would have known Xue Huiyi would pull such a stunt and trap Su Xiaocai?
The principal believed that Xue Huiyi mustâve been brainwashed into causing trouble at this time.
"I only knew that Su Xiaocai had set up her team, and the Vegetable Farmer Team didnât carry the schoolâs name, so the other students didnât need to either."
The Military Training School didnât organize competitions to select elite teams before, and thereâs even less need now.
Mei Lan said, "The principal had long-term vision after all."
The principal felt guilty: it was an accident. He merely felt that the fluctuations in an online competition were too numerous, intending to choose a team to support when the finals were near.
Now the situation has changed.
Many schools have piled resources into a single elite team, often failing to achieve desired results. Letting the kids venture on their own, in contrast, could yield unexpected outcomes.
