The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Chapter 72: 070 Imperial Capital’s Nie Family!

Nie Chao simply couldn’t believe his eyes, he rubbed them and looked again.

This time he saw clearly.

Even though he only caught a side view, he was frightened enough.

Damn!

How did she end up in Shanghai City?

“Big, big shot,” Nie Chao took a step back and hid behind the girl with an egg in his hand, his throat rolling, “If someone hits me later, can you, can you help me block them?”

“Who?” Ying Zijin pressed down the brim of her hat calmly, “Your older brother?”

Nie Chao was startled, “Big shot, how did you know?”

Didn’t she have her back to him?

“I figured it out.”

“…”

She was teasing him again.

Nie Chao felt very dejected.

“It’s my older brother.” He carefully moved back again, making sure he wasn’t discovered before he let out a sigh of relief, “Sister, you don’t know, my brother is even scarier than my old man.”

“At least I can hide from the old man; after all, he can’t run as fast as me, but it’s different with my brother, damn it, he’s been beating me up since I was little!”

Every time he gets a girlfriend, his older brother would beat him up.

But clearly, each time, he was the one being dumped.

Ying Zijin’s eyebrows raised slightly, then she turned to look.

In front of the Bugatti Veyron, stood a man erect.

He looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six, with a tall and straight physique.

Dressed in a black suit, he was forbiddingly handsome.

His whole body exuded an aura of murderous sternness as if he had just walked out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Even the sons of wealthy families from the Imperial Capital couldn’t possess this kind of demeanor.

Ying Zijin’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Your brother just came back from the Yi Character Team.”

Nie Chao was taken aback again, “Big shot, did you figure this out too?”

His brother was the eldest grandson of the Nie Family, but he was actually somewhat estranged from the family.

Because at the age of twelve, he had joined the Yi Character Team.

Members of the Yi Character Team had to remain impartial, even toward their own family.

The old man of his family was both angry and pleased; angry that the Nie Family had no successors, but pleased that his grandson was very promising.

He didn’t know what level his brother was at within the Yi Character Team.

But there was that one time Nie Chao accidentally encountered an agent from the International Bureau of Investigation (IBI), and even that agent was very respectful towards his brother.

Obviously, he was no ordinary character.

But his brother’s identity was a secret from the outside world, and not even the sons and daughters of other prominent families from the Imperial Capital might be aware of it.

Moreover, how could a common legal case have alerted his brother?

Nie Chao was utterly baffled.

Strange, he always felt that the sister from the Ying Family was mysterious, just like The Seventh Young Master, inscrutable to people.

**

Ying Luwei didn’t see that Bugatti Veyron and returned to her seat.

Along the way, Lu Zhi also made another call to her advisor and got another confirmation before she looked up with a smile, “Luwei, rest assured, my teacher said that the Wu family has already reached out to West Wind Law Firm, there definitely won’t be any mistakes.”

“Of course, I’m not worried.” Ying Luwei smiled as she watched the girl walking in from outside, “Don’t you think she’s quite naive to think that just because she found a law firm, she can really win the case?”

These kinds of cases were difficult to win in the first place, let alone without the support of West Wind Law Firm.

Lu Zhi didn’t seem concerned, “Young people haven’t experienced the harshness of society yet, so they’re quite naïve.”

“But she does have some methods,” Ying Luwei withdrew the smile from her lips, lifted her chin in disdain, “look, she’s even hooked up with Fu Yunshen.”

Lu Zhi’s face turned ugly.

Just because of a phone call from Fu Yunshen, her bank card had been stopped by Mr. Lu.

“As her aunt, it’s my duty to guide my niece back on the right path in time.” Ying Luwei played with her nails, “Just watch how awkward she’ll be during the trial later.”

She definitely wouldn’t allow things to get out of her control again.

Lu Zhi pursed her lips and glanced again at the girl’s position.

To the right and up front, Nie Chao was complaining to Fu Yunshen, “The Seventh Young Master, you didn’t see it, but Ying Luwei, that white lotus, was just bullying my sister.”

“Hmm?” Fu Yunshen’s expression was unchanged, but his eyes deepened slightly, his voice low and husky.

“It’s actually hilarious, she even claimed that Imperial Capital’s families had intervened on her behalf to pressure West Wind Law Firm.” Nie Chao was speechless. “Do you think her brain has a problem?”

“You could pry it open and have a look for her.”

“…”

Fu Yunshen didn’t say much more, he took out the chocolate he had prepared and placed it in the girl’s hand.

The tips of his fingers brushed against the soft palm as if a breeze were passing over.

Ying Zijin’s eyelashes fluttered down.

These days, she had grown accustomed to his occasional feeding.

She put the chocolate away, not eating it right away.

Because she didn’t want to show her face, she wasn’t sitting in the plaintiff’s seat and had put on a mask.

It was getting closer to two o’clock, and there were more comments streaming in.

[It’s almost time; where is West Wind Law Firm, haven’t they arrived yet?]

[Could something have happened on the road?]

[How could that be, how could such a professional law firm get tripped up by something trivial like this?]

Just when the netizens were all puzzled, a few very eye-catching comments floated by.

[Stop waiting, West Wind Law Firm won’t be coming. Don’t you know that Imperial Capital’s families have made their move? Tsk tsk, I told you before, Ying Zijin was never going to win the case, and you didn’t believe me.]

[It’s not like they were suing Ying Luwei herself, but suing her fans is like stepping on her face. Would Ying Luwei allow such a thing to happen? Forget it, it’s over.]

[Ying Zijin is also, really, it’s just the Ying Family’s own affairs, and yet she insists on going to court. It’s quite pointless.]

[To the one in front, remember to be a Holy Mother when you get cyberbullied, and definitely don’t sue.]

On the defendant’s bench, Ying Feifei and the girl managing Ying Luwei’s official fan club both let out a sigh of relief.

As long as the courtroom proceedings couldn’t proceed normally, they wouldn’t have to carry the burden of having a criminal record.

By 2:20 p.m., there was still no sign of West Wind Law Firm.

If they were over thirty minutes late without a legitimate reason, the court would judge that the plaintiff had withdrawn their lawsuit.

Ying Luwei flicked her hair and gave the defense lawyer a look.

Understanding the cue, the defense lawyer stood up, “Honorable Judgment Chief, I think it’s necessary to remind the plaintiff—if the litigation lawyer doesn’t arrive soon, we are entitled to have the opposition withdraw their case.”

With those words spoken, the people in the courtroom began to whisper among themselves.

The screen of comments also went into disarray.

[No way, they’re really not coming?]

[Alas, there’s nothing to be done when someone has backup.]

Ying Luwei was quite pleased, and she sent a text message with a new number.

[Xiao Jin, your auntie already told you, you’re useless by yourself, remember to be obedient next time, otherwise your auntie can’t guarantee what she’ll do to you.]

Ying Zijin yawned, and casually blocked her.

Fu Yunshen noticed she was getting sleepy, and tilted his shoulder, “Lean on me?”

Ying Zijin slightly shook her head, her phoenix eyes misty, “It’s okay, I can hold on.”

Fu Yunshen raised his hand to press her head onto his shoulder, “Your health isn’t good, don’t force yourself.”

“…”

Ying Zijin simply pulled down her hat and began to rest.

Ying Luwei, sitting in a corner, saw this scene and shook her head repeatedly.

At a time like this, they still had the mood for flirting and scolding.

She checked the time, realizing it was already 28 minutes past, and lost the interest to continue waiting, she stood up to leave.

Just as Ying Luwei had stood up, the door of the courtroom suddenly opened.

A young lawyer walked in, holding a folder, and made his way to his seat unhurriedly.

“There was a car accident on the road, I am late, my apologies.” He pushed his glasses up, smiled, “Honorable Judgment Chief, before we begin, please allow me to introduce Miss Zijin’s legal representative.”

He stepped to the side to make room for the man following behind him, “Mr. Nie Yi.”

Nie Chao: “…”

Fuck, he had split open again.
