That afternoon.

Song Zhizhi received a call from Song Shan.

After the verdict was issued, you could apply for an appeal. Due to internal procedures, the date for the appeal had been set, it would be on the 10th of next month, essentially 15 days from now. Upon receiving the news, she immediately called Ji Baijian, eager to share the update with him first.

Was this… a girl in love?

Song Zhizhi was even looking forward to hearing Ji Baijian’s lazy, yet magnetic voice.

However, the tone on the other end was not good, “What’s up?”

Song Zhizhi felt wronged.

Her enthusiasm was extinguished like a bucket of cold water had been poured over it.

Song Zhizhi’s silence made the person on the other end frown, then Ji Baijian asked, “Is there something?”

The tone was noticeably better this time.

“I just wanted to let you know that the appeal has been scheduled for the 10th of next month,” Song Zhizhi said, sounding quite dispirited.

“Hmm,” Ji Baijian responded.

The moment Song Zhizhi was about to hang up, Ji Baijian suddenly said, “I was sleeping.”

It seemed as though he was explaining why he had been curt earlier.

Song Zhizhi felt even more disgruntled upon hearing his explanation, “Didn’t you say you were busy?

Is sleeping your idea of being busy?”

Could it be that he would rather sleep than have dinner with her?!

“So, couldn’t Miss Song deduce that the bloodshot eyes and dark circles on under my eyes were because of…” Ji Baijian asked.

Song Zhizhi was taken aback.

Did he mean, he didn’t get proper sleep last night because he was working on her case?

That’s why he needed to catch up on sleep today.

Given Ji Baijian’s personality, if he hadn’t been pulling an all-nighter, it was unlikely he’d be this tired.

Alright.

She admitted that she was moved again.

She gripped her mobile tightly, “Then, get some rest.”

“Hmm.”

She ended the call

Song Zhizhi stared at her phone, lost in thought.

She felt an overwhelming sense of happiness.

Song Zhidao saw his sister’s dreamy state, “Sis, you’re practically drooling.”

Song Zhizhi glared at her brother.

“Aren’t you afraid that even if your sentence is reduced after the appeal, the Ji Family will still reject you?” Song Zhidao asked.

While discussing the case earlier, Song Zhizhi had deliberately asked Song Zhidao and Luo Xiaolang to leave the room. It wasn’t because she didn’t trust them, but she didn’t want additional complications.

The less people knew, the less trouble there would be.

“Didn’t you see how much Ji Baijian loves me?” Song Zhizhi grinned smugly.

“So boastful,” Song Zhidao murmured.

“How can you fall in love so quickly?” Song Zhizhi asked Song Zhidao, while also questioning herself

Song Zhidao bluntly stated, “That just proves your indecisiveness.”

Song Zhizhi rolled her eyes.

If words fail to hit home, they fall flat.

She got up and went straight back to her room.

Now, the wait was on for the appeal to commence!

During the waiting period for the appeal, nothing major happened. Song Zhizhi guessed that Nie Wenzhi was certain that she only wanted to appeal for a reduced sentence, and had no evidence to prove her innocence.

Even though she had changed a lot during this period , ultimately she was raised by Nie Wenzhi. Under external pressure, given her character in her previous life, she would probably compromise.

Therefore, Nie Wenzhi must be basking in joy at this moment.

Song Zhizhi was relatively free during this time. She spent the whole day at home, since as a defendant awaiting trial, she couldn’t roam around freely.

As for Ji Baijian…

This man had gotten used to her passive behavior, and as a result, he never showed up unless she initiated contact.

Song Zhizhi, with nothing much to do, lay in bed scrolling through news. She would often come across headlines about her. It seemed like everyone was eagerly anticipating her sentencing, expecting a swift gratification of justice.

Finding it boring, she was about to put her phone down when it suddenly rang.

An unknown number. Song Zhizhi answered, “Hello.”

“Song Zhizhi, this is Yin Qin.” The intonation on the other end was rather harsh, and the voice louder than usual, “Is that Gao Dazhuang yours?” ‘Who?” Song Zhizhi was confused.

What Gao Dazhuang?!

“What’s your name again?” Yin Qin seemed to be asking someone on his end.

Song Zhizhi could hear Luo Xiaolang’s voice faintly.

Luo Xiaolang had just cleared his theory exam and started driving lessons a few days ago.

“Luo Xiaolang, that Luo Xiaolang from your house!” Yin Qin said through gritted teeth.

“What happened?” Song Zhizhi asked.

“You come here, to the police station. I am at the South City Police Station, waiting for you,” Yin Qin abruptly ended the call.

Song Zhizhi was still perplexed. She quickly changed clothes and drove to the police station.

At the police station, Luo Xiaolang was sitting on one side of the mediation room. Yin Qin was standing on the other side, visibly enraged. The mediator, a police officer, dared not offend Yin Qin due to his status. Apparently, when he realized that Luo Xiaolang was associated with the Song family, he refrained from commenting further. As a result, he sat awkwardly, fiddling with a pen.

Until, Song Zhizhi arrived.

Luo Xiaolang turned to look at her, showing no particular emotion, remaining quiet as usual. Seeing her arrival, Yin Qin snapped, “Song Zhizhi, I just realized that you have a pet wolf!”

‘What happened?” Song Zhizhi furrowed her brows.

‘You should ask your pet wolf about it.”

“My name is Luo Xiaolang, not ‘pet wolf’.” Luo Xiaolang retorted indignantly.

“What exactly is going on?” Song Zhizhi muttered. Everyone seemed to be at odds with each other all of a sudden.

“Let me explain, ” the mediator timidly said.

Song Zhizhi looked at him.

The officer explained, “Luo Xiaolang drove a car out onto the main road while at the driving school. While the instructor wasn’t watching, he nearly crashed into Mr. Yin’s car. The two cars brushed against each other, so…”

“Brush against?” Yin Qin shouted, “You call this brushing against? I bought a new car, a brand new, limited edition SRT! I waited for three whole months, finally picking it up today from the dealership. I had barely driven out, when your ‘pet wolf’ came barreling out, scaring me into an abrupt stop to avoid a collision. Little did I know that when I got out of my car to yell at him, he gunned the accelerator and in an instant, there was a huge hole in my SRT, a giant hole!”

Hearing this, everyone winced in pain..
