"It might backfire on you if you say too much. The judge might favor the other party, putting you at a disadvantage."

Ding Jiayi's expression changed and she could not help but murmur inwardly. Who decided on such a law? Why was it so wrong and foolish? Qiao Nan was unmarried, so her earnings should belong to the entire Qiao family instead of her alone.
That was the way all families worked. Why did the law not recognize and protect that?
Thinking about how the court would not punish Qiao Nan for wanting to kill her sister and would even stand on her side, Ding Jiayi was incensed. "Lawyer, let me ask you a question. Was this law passed recently?" Otherwise, why were they all helping Qiao Nan instead of her?
Was the law not supposed to protect the interests of the commoners? She did not feel that her interests were being protected at all!
