Chapter 178 The Confused Little Fairy Remarries Her Father-like God (Part 3)

Shen Xizhou: "Plaintiff, please explain how you two met and what your premarital relationship was like?"

Chu Yuan: "We met through a social app. We didn't date much, but the man's family kept urging us to get married. As soon as I turned twenty and reached the legal marriage age, they dragged me to get a marriage certificate."

To be absolutely certain that a divorce must be granted, Chu Yuan searched for many strategies. In short, one must firmly express that the marriage has broken down and that it is impossible to continue living together, without the slightest hesitation!

Shen Xizhou: "How is married life? Why do you insist on getting a divorce?"

It wasn't that Shen Xizhou was asking a question he already knew the answer to, but rather that the court proceedings required it; the written complaint was one thing, but the court record was also crucial.

Chu Yuan: "After we got married, he stayed out all night every day, played mahjong and drank heavily, and he was prone to domestic violence. The evidence, including photos of my injuries, police reports, medical examination reports, and witness testimonies from neighbors, can all testify to my case. As for why I want a divorce, Judge Shen, I don't want to die, and I still want to have a few lovely children. Isn't that too much to ask?"

Shen Xizhou, "..."

Chu Yuan coughed awkwardly, about to continue asking questions, when Zhu Jicheng in the defendant's seat exploded, standing up abruptly and pointing at Chu Yuan's nose, "You bitch! Talk nonsense! Not close? You were all smiles when you received my gifts and red envelopes!"

Shen Xizhou struck the gavel: "Defendant, please be quiet. This court is now questioning the plaintiff. You do not need to answer!"

"Judge, don't listen to her! This bitch is lying! She only married me for my money, and she did nothing but sleep at home after the marriage... she..."

Shen Xizhou's voice turned colder, "Defendant, if you continue to disrupt the court, the court can request the bailiffs to forcibly remove you!"

Zhu Jicheng had no intention of getting a divorce. He was unwilling to let go of the free nanny he had tricked into marrying, so he had no choice but to suppress his temper and keep quiet.

Shen Xizhou continued, "Does the plaintiff insist on a divorce? Is there any willingness to mediate?"

Chu Yuan: "I insist on my decision and refuse mediation. I request the judge to render a judgment according to the law!"

Zhu Jicheng panicked when he heard this. He had only asked a few questions, so why did it seem like it was about to end?

He suddenly raised his hand, like a primary school student asking a question in class.

Shen Xizhou gave him the opportunity, "Does the defendant have anything else to say?"

Zhu Jicheng argued vehemently, "Judge, you can't just listen to her side of the story. You should at least ask me a few questions, right?"

Shen Xizhou: "Yes, indeed. Defendant, may I ask what joint property you and your spouse possess?"

Zhu Jicheng, “???”

Damn it, who told him to ask that!

He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and refused to answer. Shen Xizhou struck the gavel again, "Defendant, please answer truthfully!"

Zhu Jicheng, "..."

"No, no. I bought the house before we got married, and her name wasn't on it. We don't have any savings either. Oh, right, before we got married, I took out more than 100,000 yuan in online loans to pursue her, and I also gave her 80,000 yuan as a bride price, which was borrowed from relatives and friends. So, this 200,000 yuan should be considered marital debt, right?"

Zhu Jicheng wasn't stupid; even if they were to divorce, he wouldn't let the other party take a single penny from him.

On the contrary, she was asked to share the debt of 100,000.

Now, let's see if that little bitch still dares to leave?

She has neither a high level of education nor any skills, so finding a job is difficult. How can she possibly go out and eat shit?

But just as Zhu Jicheng was smug and felt confident of victory, Shen Xizhou, after exchanging words with the two judges beside him, sat up straight and slammed his gavel down: "After deliberation by this panel, the verdict in this case is hereby pronounced:"

I. The divorce between the plaintiff Jiang Yuan and the defendant Zhu Jicheng is permitted;

II. The property purchased by the defendant before marriage and mortgaged after marriage (located at No. 6, 18th Floor, Building 3, Hongfeng Community, Hongfeng District, Lianjiang City) belongs to the defendant Zhu Jicheng. The plaintiff shall divide the increased value of the property after marriage.

Third, since the defendant concealed a serious illness before marriage and repeatedly committed domestic violence against the plaintiff after marriage, causing serious physical and mental damage to the plaintiff, the defendant shall provide the plaintiff with economic compensation after the divorce, which shall not be less than the total amount of two years' minimum wage in Lianjiang City.

Fourth, the defendant's online loan of 160,000 yuan was a personal act before marriage and has nothing to do with the plaintiff. Therefore, the plaintiff is not liable for repayment.

Fifth, since the plaintiff and defendant have registered their marriage and live together as husband and wife, the bride price will not be returned.

VI. The case acceptance fee of 300 yuan shall be borne by the defendant, Zhu Jicheng.

The court hearing is over!

As soon as Shen Xizhou finished speaking, the two judges next to him quickly left their seats, and the other staff members also left without lingering at all.

Zhu Jicheng's mind was buzzing as he watched this scene, unable to believe that the divorce had happened so quickly!

He didn't even utter a single threatening word.

"Divorced? Just like that? I've been divorced?"

Zhu Jicheng looked at his hands and asked three questions in a row, finding it hard to accept this reality.

Suddenly, he caught sight of Shen Xizhou standing to the side of the clerk, pointing out the notes. Enraged, he rushed over, grabbed an empty chair, and smashed it down on Shen Xizhou's body.

Shen Xizhou reacted extremely quickly, instinctively using his forearm to block, but at that moment, Chu Yuan appeared out of nowhere and fearlessly threw herself on top of Shen Xizhou, taking the blow for him!

Before losing consciousness, Chu Yuan forced a smile at Shen Xizhou, "Thank you, Judge Shen. I have no regrets about exchanging one life for another."

What followed was a flurry of activity, and Chu Yuan was taken to the hospital.

Zhu Jicheng was sentenced to one year in prison for intentional injury, violence, and threats against public officials. The divorce decree that had already taken effect was enforced. Half a month later, Chu Yuan received 80,000 yuan in compensation and a divorce certificate.

Since Zhu Jicheng had no savings, the 80,000 yuan came from the auction of his house.
