Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1616: True Love

In the courtroom, the presiding judge immediately frowned and knocked with his gavel. He said solemnly, "Please do not disturb the order of the trial."

A few military police officers immediately walked over and gestured for Old Master Qin to leave.

Old Master Qin was in tears. He was supported by his nephew as he left the courtroom.

As he walked past Gu Nianzhi, Old Master Qin choked with sobs. "Nianzhi, I know your mother was at fault. I apologize on her behalf. We will let you vent your anger. When the case is over, grandfather will take you to the Qin family for a few days…"

Gu Nianzhi frowned. "Old Master Qin, this is a court case. The court will judge based on evidence and logic. Please don't say such things in court. This is humiliating us legal professionals and obstructing justice."

"Besides, I don't have a mother or a grandfather. Please leave the court quickly and don't disturb the order of the court."

Old Master Qin was embarrassed for a moment and muttered, "Ah, you child…"

He couldn't continue. He shook his head and helped his nephew out of the court.

Qin Yaoguang saw her old father being dissed by Gu Nianzhi in public because of her. Her eyes were red with anguish.

She couldn't help looking at He Chengjian's seat, but he didn't even look at her. His gaze was glued to Gu Nianzhi.

He was so focused and lost in thought that he didn't seem to be looking at Gu Nianzhi at all. He was looking at another person through Gu Nianzhi..

Gu Nianzhi looked so much like her, but her every move in court made people think of another person.

This realization was like a bucket of cold water on a snowy day. Qin Yaoguang snapped back to reality completely.

She wiped her face with the back of her hand and lowered her head in silence.

..

Gu Nianzhi watched the family leave the courtroom coldly and turned to look at the courtroom. She said word by word, "Eight years ago, it was Qin Yaoguang who ordered Wen Dayou and his wife to kidnap me and bring me to her. She even had me sent to the airport to smuggle me out of the country!"

Of course, Lu Jin was the one who had told her all this.

He had intercepted Qin Yaoguang's attempt to smuggle Gu Nianzhi out of the country and took her away from the airport…

Qin Yaoguang's heart trembled.

Did Gu Nianzhi remember everything? !

She had never performed a memory removal surgery on Gu Nianzhi, but she had always thought that Gu Nianzhi had lost her memory. It was Gu Xiangwen who had hypnotized her and erased her memories from the previous twelve years.

Now it seemed that neither was true.

Gu Nianzhi had gone to the other dimension and lost her memory not because of the memory-stripping surgery, nor because Gu Xiangwen had hypnotized her.

Because the memory loss caused by both methods was irreversible.

Qin Yaoguang concluded that Gu Nianzhi's previous memory loss was only because she had gone to the other world at a young age and her brain had not matured yet. Therefore, the collision of the high-energy magnetic field had caused a temporary total loss of memory.

She didn't know that in reality, Gu Nianzhi's memory had not recovered at all.

Everything she knew did not come from her memory, but from Lu Jin.

Gu Nianzhi had used this little bit of information to force Qin Yaoguang to make a choice.

Was she going to admit that she was the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Gu Nianzhi eight years ago, or was she going to admit that she was the scientist who had used Gu Nianzhi as an experiment and tortured her for four years?

Either way, Qin Yaoguang was going to jail.

The sole purpose of Gu Nianzhi's trial this time was to put Qin Yaoguang in jail.

..

Qin Yaoguang took a deep breath and turned to look at her lawyer, Wen Shouyi. She noticed that her lips were tightly pursed and her eyes were wandering. It was unknown what she was thinking about, but she appeared to be getting more and more frustrated.

Why was she so useless?

She had thought that she had won the case just now, but in the end, Gu Nianzhi had turned the tables on her.

She was so useless.

..

In the courtroom, the presiding judge asked Qin Yaoguang in a serious toe of voice, "Defendant, is what the plaintiff said true?"

Wen Shouyi came back to her senses and quickly said, "Mr. Presiding judge, my client…"

Qin Yaoguang's facial expression was cold. She raised her head to interrupt Wen Shouyi and said plainly, "Yes, what Gu Nianzhi said is true."

The court was in an uproar.

She had confessed?

Gu Nianzhi glanced at her face. There was no trace of emotion on her face.

Qin Yaoguang's expression could only be described as numb.

Gu Nianzhi tutted. "You suddenly changed your mind. Defendant Qin Yaoguang, which of your words should I believe to be true and which are false?"

The presiding judge added, "The defendant, please state your motive. Why did you kidnap your own daughter and frame Gu Xiangwen?"

It was not enough to just admit guilt; evidence and motive were needed to convict.

Qin Yaoguang lowered her gaze and stared at the table in front of her. She said with a straight face, "I did all of this for one person."

"For who?" Gu Nianzhi pressed on. "Where is this person?"

Qin Yaoguang looked up and quickly glanced in He Chengjian's direction. She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes. "For He Chengjian."

"Huh — ? !"

There was a commotion in the courtroom. He Chengjian's personal secretary and entourage were all stunned.

What was going on?

Could there be more to this case?

This woman really dared to say that General He was involved..

He Chengjian also frowned and was a little angry.

He could swear to the heavens that he had never instructed Qin Yaoguang to do such a thing.

He Zhichu moved closer to his ear and said softly, "Dad, did you see that? When women go crazy, they're really unreasonable. Perhaps we were all wrong. The real lunatic is someone else."

He Chengjian's eyes twitched uncontrollably. "What do you mean?"

"Nothing." He Zhichu curled his lips and continued to listen to the interrogation.

Gu Nianzhi quickly followed up. She also frowned and said, "The defendant, Qin Yaoguang, please elaborate more clearly. What do you mean you did it for He Chengjian? Do you mean that General He Chengjian was the mastermind behind this? Did he ask you to kidnap me so that I could leave the He family?"

He Chengjian simply frowned when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice,"… What sort of reasoning is that? If I wanted to chase her out of the He family, why would I go through so much trouble to bring her back? !"

A faint smile appearing in his almond-shaped eyes, He Zhichu shrugged lightly.

Qin Yaoguang shook her head and directly denied it. "No, General He Chengjian didn't ask me to do it. I did it for him."

"So you're saying that you took the initiative to do this for He Chengjian?" Gu Nianzhi was even more confused. "So you're still saying that G, eneral He Chengjian had something to do with this? That you helped him solve his problems because he wanted me to leave?"

Qin Yaoguang closed her eyes and was getting impatient. She shook her head and said, "There's something wrong with your ability to understand people. I say I did it for him, yet you twist it and interpret it as him being the mastermind."

"I'm not twisting anything. It's a reasonable deduction." Gu Nianzhi had always been very patient in court, "You kidnapped me and took me away from the He family. Then you said it was because of General He Chengjian, so I directly deduced that He Chengjian wanted me to leave the He family, so you helped him fulfill his wish."

Qin Yaoguang did not expect to hear such an explanation. She quickly glanced at He Chengjian again. Seeing that he was still not looking at her, she became even more frustrated.

Pursing her lips and puffing her cheeks, Qin Yaoguang made up her mind. She said directly, "Lawyer Gu, you're too narcissistic. How could I kidnap you for General He Chengjian solely because of you? You were actually just bait. I kidnapped you to lure out Gu Xiangwen, who had been hiding all this time."

Gu Nianzhi's heart skipped a beat. This was an angle that she had never thought of before.

Her spirits lifted, and Gu Nianzhi immediately began to unravel the mystery. "Oh? You kidnapped me to lure Gu Xiangwen out of hiding? Why? How did you know that Gu Xiangwen would find out that you wanted to kidnap me?"

Qin Yaoguang pointed to her left brain. "Do you know why I installed an anti-hypnosis biochip in my brain? It's because I know that Gu Xiangwen has never given up on me and has been secretly spying on me. He knows everything I did."

In fact, it was only after Gu Nianzhi had been taken away by Gu Xiangwen that Qin Yaoguang realized that Gu Xiangwen had been spying on her even when she was on the run.

However, in court, she had actually made a valid case to say the opposite.

Gu Nianzhi almost laughed when she heard this. "… Gu Xiangwen has never given up on you? !"

"Yes, why else would he keep spying on me?" Qin Yaoguang said matter-of-factly, "But I don't like him. I told him long ago that there was only one person I liked from start to finish, and that was my ex-fiance and ex-husband, General He Chengjian. Gu Xiangwen doesn't even deserve to carry General He's shoes!"

"Shut up! Aren't you ashamed to say such things in court?" Gu Nianzhi was finally enraged, and she cut her off harshly, "What about you would my father, Gu Xiangwen, like? You're not as academically talented as him, your IQ isn't as high as his, and even your EQ isn't high than his, yet you're in the same field as him. Do you know what it means to be in the same field as an enemy? How did you come up with the outlandish idea that he likes you?"

"Of course you won't admit it." Qin Yaoguang saw that Gu Nianzhi was angry and was instantly in a good mood. She looked at He Chengjian lovingly, and saw that he had finally looked over. The smile on her face grew wider. "But whether you admit it or not, this is the truth. I used this to lure Gu Xiangwen out with you as bait."

"Everyone saw what happened after that. Gu Xiangwen really showed up and burned himself to death in front of everyone." She turned to look at He Chengjian. She said very sincerely, "Chengjian, I know what you're thinking. You want Gu Xiangwen to pay for your wife's death with his life. I know I shouldn't have used such a method to lure him out, but as long as I can help you get revenge, I'm willing to do anything for you!"

Gu Nianzhi was so angry that she laughed. "Qin Yaoguang, you're such a femme fatale! To avenge a man who doesn't love you, you're willing to take such risks. But I have to ask, why did General He Chengjian want to capture Gu Xiangwen to pay for his wife's death?"
