Monday, the day of the pre-trial hearing.
At the city courthouse, in the judge's office.
"Yesterday the chief judge gave me a call, and it was clear he hadn't expected the issue with public opinion online either."
"He called me on his day off and even made a point to emphasize this case; you can imagine how upset I am right now, can't you?"
"I'm dying to give you all a shouting at this very moment. I know some swear words are unpleasant to hear, but they're already stuck in my throat!"
Judge Ni Qiuping sat in her judicial seat, facing the three people before her with an expression that read "I'm about to lose my temper."
However, since it was Judge Ni Qiuping, this look seemed all too natural to Zhang Wei.
"Old Ni, calm down a bit. It's just some online public opinion; just take it easy~"
"Look at me, I never pay attention to those online comments about me. I still enjoy my meals and sleep soundly."
