Zhou Ringuo's smile could indeed be described as heartfelt. He vaguely saw Autumn Wind standing in the witness stand testifying for him, and then the image of his wife collapsing.
He was so certain of this not only because he could actually obtain evidence from Shaolan to blackmail Autumn Wind, but more importantly, his wife's defense attorney was Liu Jian.
Just thinking about the awkward moment when Autumn Wind and Liu Jian, this pair of lovers, locked eyes in court made Zhou Ringuo unable to hold back a laugh.
Sure enough, on the second night after he threatened Autumn Wind, he received a call saying that Autumn Wind was willing to appear in court.
In the call, he couldn't suppress his joy and blurted out that his wife's newly appointed defense attorney was Liu Jian. "You don't know, right? Liu Jian is the opposing lawyer. I'm really looking forward to seeing you two face off in court..."
What? Liu Jian was his wife's defense attorney? It was like a bolt from the blue, and the shock made Autumn Wind's breathing quicken.
On the other end of the line, Zhou Ringuo continued, "You better not try any tricks... If you don't perform well, once we leave court, I'll hand over the evidence to Liu Jian... I have it on me!"
"Okay, I understand..." Autumn Wind replied weakly.
At the time of this call, she was hiding in Liu Jian's bathroom. Zhou Ringuo's words felt like daggers stabbing into her, and her guilt towards Liu Jian reached a boiling point.
She emerged from the bathroom listlessly and slowly. The living room was dimly lit; the yellow light cast on Autumn Wind made her look like a soulless mummy. Her body stiffened as she slowly approached Liu Jian, who was lying on the sofa watching TV.
Her gaze was vacant as she stared intently at Liu Jian.
Noticing Autumn Wind's unusual behavior, Liu Jian suddenly sprang up from the sofa. "What... what's wrong with you?"
"I..." Autumn Wind wanted to tell Liu Jian that she would testify for Zhou Ringuo, but thinking about her photos made her fearful. What if Liu Jian urged her to refuse Zhou Ringuo and pressed her about her situation in mainland China? What would she do then...
"I... I'm fine. Are you... busy lately?" Autumn Wind stammered.
"Fortunately, there's only one Divorce Lawsuit on my hands..."
"Um... do you think you'll win?"
"In a Divorce Lawsuit, there's no such thing as winning or losing... It's just a matter of who gets more and who gets less..." Liu Jian said, glancing at Autumn Wind's face. Noticing that something was off with Autumn Wind, he reached out and gently touched her forehead. "Are you feeling unwell?"
"No. No... I'm just a bit tired... I'm going to take a shower now..." Autumn Wind dodged Liu Jian's hand, stepped back a few paces, and then turned to enter the bathroom.
Autumn Wind stayed in the bathroom for a long time, soaking her body in the bathtub as warm water washed over her. The mirror across from the bathtub reflected her figure; her smooth skin had a slight rosy glow, with a slender waist and delicate limbs.
Crystal-clear water droplets fell on her exposed breasts above the water's surface. She reached for a few rose petals and gently covered the droplets. However, the rose petals stubbornly slid off her breasts into the water, like a butterfly that had brushed against her body.
Thinking of butterflies, Shaolan's appearance from that night flashed before Autumn Wind's eyes. This made her unable to help but recall that set of photos, causing turmoil in her heart. She began to feel disgusted with her own body, which made Autumn Wind lose interest in continuing her bath.
She stood up and stepped out of the bathtub.
She picked up the towel placed on the shelf, unfolded it, and draped it over herself. Then she walked to the corner of the bathroom, facing the wall. After confirming that she wouldn't be seen in the mirror, Autumn Wind slowly began to dry herself.
Droplets were wiped away one by one with the towel, evenly covering her body with shower gel. Then Autumn Wind picked up the hairdryer and quickly dried her hair. She turned around to grab her nightgown but realized in her fluster that she had forgotten it in the bedroom.
After thinking for a moment, she wrapped the towel around her chest and tiptoed toward the bedroom. The television in the living room was already off, silent without a sound.
Autumn Wind pushed open the bedroom door just as Liu Jian was taking off his clothes. His fitted tank top was halfway off, exposing his broad shoulders and sun-kissed skin that gleamed with health.
Noticing Autumn Wind entering, he felt a bit shy and quickly pulled down his tank top before turning around. When he saw Autumn Wind wrapped in a towel at her chest, his previously shy expression vanished.
An evil smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, a little cynical, and his eyes suddenly became hot. He slowly walked towards Autumn Wind, put his hand on Autumn Wind's exposed shoulder, and then slowly put Autumn Wind Pushed into the corner. Under Liu Jian's gaze, Autumn Wind felt as if her eyes were covered with mist. She slowly retreated with Liu Jian's strength, and was finally pressed against the wall by Liu Jian . Liu Jian's breathing became heavier and heavier, and the weapons below became stronger. Autumn Wind looked at him, she knew exactly what Liu Jian was going to do, Liu Jian brought his face close to Autumn Wind and whispered softly in her ear. Autumn Wind's body began to tremble slightly, not sure if it was because of the cold or the heat. She tried to make some actions in response to Liu Jian, but this thought stopped when she remembered Jolie's provocation. The nauseating feeling came over again, and she raised her hand to push Liu Jian away. When I looked up, I saw Liu Jian's concerned eyes. When their eyes met, the growing guilt suddenly broke out. I originally raised my hand in the air to push Liu Jian away, but it was too high again and I finally hugged Liu Jian Liu Jian's neck. Seeing Autumn Wind taking such initiative, Liu Jian is very happy. Since the car accident, the two of them have never had fun. Every time he wants to get close to Autumn Wind, he is told by Autumn Wind that his body has not yet recovered. Rejection, Autumn Wind has been indifferent for nearly a month. Liu Jian kissed Autumn Wind's forehead, eyes, mouth, and neck in turn, and slowly went down. Autumn Wind under him made a slight moan, and heard Autumn Wind's intoxicating voice, Liu Jian's fingers began to wander around Autumn Wind's body, and finally slowly untied the bath towel surrounding Autumn Wind's body. Autumn Wind showed a hint of shyness and her face was blushing. She covered her breasts with her hands and looked at Liu Jian. Liu Jian noticed Autumn Wind's shyness, smiled slightly, and raised her hand to turn off the power. switch. In the darkness, Liu Jian hugged Autumn Wind to the bed. Autumn Wind knew that no matter what she did, she could not make up for her guilt towards Liu Jian, so she tried her best to please Liu Jian. In the darkness, the two of them were entwined, Autumn Wind was humming softly, Liu Jian was lying on her chest and busy, Autumn Wind hugged Liu Jian's head with her arms, Liu Jian was shunned Kissing down the abdomen, thin and dense kisses fell on every skin of Autumn Wind, sometimes shallow, sometimes deep, and the fingers kept moving slowly in the ravines of the lower body. After such lingering, Liu Jian's weapon finally found the right matching muzzle. Liu Jian raised the gun and charged fiercely. Every move forward was like being torn apart by Autumn Wind. Finally, after countless charges , Liu Jian occupied the high ground, and the surging bullets were changing rapidly, and the bullets were raining down.
At that moment, Autumn Wind inexplicably shed tears. Was it guilt? Or was it grievance? Perhaps it was simply the turmoil within her heart that she couldn't set right.
The war had finally ended. Liu Jian gently kissed away Autumn Wind's tears and softly asked, "Why are you crying? Does it hurt?"
She wasn't in pain; it was just bitterness... a myriad of sorrows with no outlet.
Autumn Wind bit her lip, forced a smile, and shook her head lightly. She felt a slight chill from being exposed, so she instinctively shrank down a bit.
As she moved downwards, her private area brushed against Liu Jian's weapon once again. This contact made Autumn Wind's legs curl slightly. Her shoulders unconsciously tensed up, and this appearance only added to her shyness in Liu Jian's eyes.
He clearly misunderstood something. In Autumn Wind's moment of blankness, Liu Jian launched a second attack.
To alleviate her guilt towards Liu Jian, Autumn Wind began to cooperate again, completely forgetting the precautions one should take in such situations.
...
Later, the Zhou Ringuo Divorce Lawsuit case went to court. Autumn Wind asked for leave from Qiu Feng. When Liu Jian left in the morning, Autumn Wind, who usually wouldn’t see him off at the door, felt guilty and for the first time accompanied him to the entrance.
Autumn Wind leaned against the door, hesitating whether to tell Liu Jian that she would also be attending the hearing later. She softly asked, "Are you going to the office or to the court now..."
Seeing Autumn Wind’s cat-like demeanor stirred infinite tenderness in Liu Jian. He took a step back, leaned closer to Autumn Wind, gently kissed her forehead, and then said, "Of course I'm going straight to court... Do you have any time?"
With such a gentle response from Liu Jian, Autumn Wind completely lost the chance to mention her own court appearance. After thinking for a moment, she could only say, "No... nothing. I... I'm just curious!"
"Then you behave and stay at home, okay..." Liu Jian gently hugged Autumn Wind, then reluctantly walked towards the elevator.
After Liu Jian left, Autumn Wind paced back and forth in the room, imagining various scenarios that might arise after meeting Liu Jian in court.
As the clock slowly approached 10 o'clock, with less than an hour until the court session began, Autumn Wind finally tidied up her attire and stepped out of the house.
After arriving at the courthouse, she did not immediately enter. Instead, she stood at the entrance, mingling with a group of reporters holding cameras, waiting for the trial results.
Zhou Ringuo's divorce lawsuit had been ongoing for more than six months, and there were always countless reporters on site for each hearing.
From the conversations among the reporters, Autumn Wind learned that most of them were here today primarily because of Liu Jiancheng, Zhou Ringuo's wife's attorney. They were present to interview Liu Jian.
"Ugh, I've been following this Zhou Ringuo divorce story for almost half a year... If it weren't for Liu Jian's appearance today, I wouldn't be enduring this torture!"
"Don't even mention it; do you think it's easy for me? I've been on this since the moment his relationship troubles broke out..."
"I hope Liu Jian can reveal something unique today; at least that way we can meet our deadlines without any issues!"
