Me! A disgraced celebrity! Starting by seeking justice for impoverished students.
Chapter 71 calls for cooperation: Please do a paternity test!
As Jiang Chen finished speaking.
Sheng Zhubao froze.
He lowered his head, covered his face with his hands, and his shoulders were trembling slightly.
Although he already knew the answer in advance through Jiang Chen's investigation.
But hearing Jiang Chen say it aloud was still hard for him to accept.
My motivation for working hard all these years has been my wife and children.
But in the end...
My wife ran off with someone else, and the child isn't even mine.
Isn't this the lowest point in life?
His only consolation was that he had met Jiang Chen.
This prevented him from being kept in the dark any longer.
Seeing his reaction, Jiang Chen remained silent.
She simply turned to the side and gently patted his shoulder.
This is how men comfort each other!
At this moment, the courtroom was deathly silent!
Yan Dongping gripped the edge of the table tightly with both hands, her fingers turning white from the excessive force.
She lowered her head, her voice squeezed out from deep in her throat.
A noticeable tremor could be heard.
"Impossible...this is impossible!"
Her voice gradually grew louder, as if she was trying to convince herself that she didn't want to accept reality.
"That report must be fake! You've got it wrong!"
"I...I never..."
In her panic, Yan Dongping's gaze swept over Li Lin.
Her gaze also became very complicated.
Seeing Yan Dongping's emotional state, Shen Zhiyi reached out and pressed down on the back of her hand.
"Sister Dongping, calm down!"
In court, losing control of one's emotions is tantamount to admitting guilt by admitting to the other party's evidence.
It will affect the judge's judgment!
Li Lin, who was sitting on the far side of the defendant's seat, finally changed his expression.
He has remained calm throughout the trial.
He doesn't seem like a defendant; he seems more like a bystander!
After all, he's been through a lot of lawsuits, but he's never actually been imprisoned!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be sitting here so comfortably today.
But at this moment, Li Lin slowly sat up straight and squinted at Yan Dongping.
Deep in his eyes, there was a hint of panic!
The viewers in the live stream went wild!
So... who is this child's biological father?
[She's been living with her lover for so long, if the child isn't Sheng Zhubao's, then it must be her lover's!]
[It's a bag! It must belong to the third brother!]
[Who knew Yan Dongping was such a ruthless person! You hid it all the better than anyone else!]
What else is there to say? The children aren't even the parties involved; the case has already been won!
I feel a little sorry for Sheng Zhubao for some reason. He works so hard away from home, only to have his wife run off with someone else, and the child isn't even his own!
[Looking at it from another angle, this is a good thing! This is the lowest point in life; every step from here on will be an improvement!]
[To the person upstairs: You should become a therapist and comfort others!]
"Sister Dongping, please don't get too emotional!"
Shen Zhiyi lowered her voice, trying to calm Yan Dongping down.
But Yan Dongping seemed not to hear.
She suddenly looked up at Song Zhe, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Song Zhe was even more stunned than she was, slumping in his chair, his face pale.
Recalling their shared experience, he felt as if he had been slapped on the back.
It took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence.
"Didn't you say this child is his?"
Song Zhe could no longer suppress his emotions, and he suddenly stood up.
His tone was full of anger!
"Whose child is it anyway? Didn't you say it's your ex-husband's?"
"Could there be someone else?"
These words immediately caused a stir in the courtroom.
It was like a bomb being dropped onto a calm lake.
Song Zhe's reaction can only mean one thing.
The child isn't his!
Others may not know, but doesn't Song Zhe himself know?
Before Yan Dongping became pregnant and gave birth, the two didn't know each other at all!
How could he possibly be the child's biological father!
The people in the gallery couldn't sit still any longer; the previously hushed discussions erupted completely!
"Holy crap! Song Zhe isn't the child's biological father either?"
"Holy crap, this defendant's got some serious tricks up his sleeve!"
"This is just one plot twist after another! Even novels couldn't write such an outrageous story!"
"Then whose child is this? How many people is she with at the same time?!"
"..."
Presiding Judge Cao Zhenbang slammed his gavel down.
"Thump!"
"Silence!"
His cold gaze swept across the entire room, his voice filled with authority.
Finally, the image freezes on the defendant's dock.
"Defendant, please control your emotions. You must not speak freely in court, and you must not question each other!"
Song Zhe was stunned by the sound, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything more.
But the way he looked at Yan Dongping had become more distant.
Yan Dongping's face changed completely, and she felt utterly hopeless.
Her lips trembled violently, and her face was deathly pale, devoid of any color!
Shen Zhiyi took a deep breath, reached out and pressed down on Yan Dongping's shoulder, and began to comfort her.
"Sister Dongping, listen to me."
"You have the right to reproduce. You have the right to decide whose child you want to have."
"This is your body, your choice, and you don't need to explain it to anyone!"
Her voice wasn't loud, but the courtroom was quiet.
Viewers in the live stream will naturally be able to hear it.
[What the hell? Do you want to hear what you're saying?]
[Now that reproductive rights are here, isn't that just an excuse to cover up infidelity?]
Good heavens, the Tier 0 meta has begun again!
Does anyone else think Song Zhe is the real scumbag? He's the third brother, but who knew there was a fourth brother too!
[Wow, this is amazing! I never imagined a divorce case could be this exciting!]
Jiang Chen chuckled softly and turned to look at the judge's bench.
"Your Honor, among the evidence we have submitted is a document containing Yan Dongping's hotel booking records before her pregnancy."
"Records show that ten days before Yan Dongping became pregnant, she checked into a hotel, and the registration information shows that the person staying with her was... the defendant, Li Lin!"
"I have also attached a medical examination report of Li Lin, which was obtained from the hospital within the legal scope."
"His blood type is AB, and when he combines with someone with type O blood, they can have a child with type B blood!"
As he spoke, Jiang Chen's gaze fell on Li Lin.
Li Lin's heart raced, and his expression turned completely panicked.
"The court has no power to force a third party to undergo a paternity test, nor does it have the power to compel anyone to provide a biological sample."
"but……"
Jiang Chen paused for a moment, then changed the subject.
"I hereby urge the defendant, Li Lin, to cooperate with the paternity test!"
According to Article 1073 of the Civil Code, if there is a dispute regarding parentage and there are legitimate reasons, the father or mother may file a lawsuit with the People's Court to request confirmation or denial of the parentage.
"If there is a dispute regarding parentage and there are legitimate grounds, adult children may also file a lawsuit in court to request confirmation of parentage!"
"If Mr. Li Lin is confirmed to be the child's biological father, then he should legally bear the corresponding obligations of a father, including all reasonable expenses such as child support, education fees, and medical expenses!"
"While the court has no power to compel him to cooperate with the investigation, the very fact that he refuses is enough for society to judge him!"
