Chief Liu probably never expected it himself.
That his testimony would be calculated by the prosecution.
Just because he spoke a word in favor of Yang Chunyuan, Zheng Fenyong "interpreted" it as him taking the witness stand today to support his old partner of more than twenty years, raising questions about whether there were any unspeakable transactions involved.
If Chief Liu hadn't lived most of his life, able to keep his composure, he might have wanted to curse someone out.
Damn it!
Wasn't it you who summoned me to court?
You are the prosecutor, the procurator, the high prosecutor.
I'm also a senior officer!
How could one think we were all on the same side, good teammates, and then you damn calculate against me, stabbing me in the back?
I have worked with Yang Chunyuan for over twenty years, but is there anything wrong with what I've said? And then you interpret it in such a way, truly preposterous!
Chief Liu swore that he nearly blew his top.
