The day of the court hearing arrived quickly.
Lin Shu took a deep breath outside the court's door.
"Nervous?" Fang Zhi asked her, turning his head.
Lin Shu nodded without any pretense, "Yes, it's my first time in such a place, so I'm naturally nervous."
"Don't worry, you won't have to pay me for my legal fees," Fang Zhi said with a determined look in his eyes.
Lin Shu blinked, but grasped the meaning behind Fang Zhi's words.
In a lawsuit, the losing party is responsible for legal fees incurred by both sides. In other words, Fang Zhi was telling her that they were sure to win, their opponents had no chance of victory.
Li Wen, sitting on the plaintiff's bench, saw Lin Shu sitting next to Fang Zhi. His already pale face couldn't stop twitching, making him look somewhat unsightly.
"Lin Shu, if you agree to marry me now, I won't mind dropping the appeal." Li Wen looked at Lin Shu's face, still a little besotted.
Lin Shu frowned, "No need, just proceed with your appeal."
