Episode 38

Hao. You came to see me?

Come, come, come. Sit.

Take a seat.

Is there a reason you came to look for me?

Don't continue with this lawsuit anymore.

You're telling me to not continue with this lawsuit?

No matter what is said,

peace should be prioritized between family members.

It's best to be prioritize peace?

You're speaking weirdly today. Your logic is flawed.

Who incited this case?

It's Tang Li Qun, Tang Ning and you.

If she didn't sue with your help, this case wouldn't exist.

Still, just listen to me.

Don't appear in court tomorrow.

As for Tang Ning and Tang Li Qun, I will find a way to persuade them. Okay?

You're telling me not to appear in court?

I'm the defendant. I must show up.

You don't want me to appear in court. I can't even find a reason for me not to appear.

Then, I'll tell you now.

Let's pretend everything isn't the way we think it is.

If you appear in court tomorrow, you'll lose very, very badly.

Then, will you still go?

That's even the more reason to go.

Because I've never lost before. The feeling of losing,

I want to experience that.

Then I'll see you in court tomorrow.

Older Cousin.

I suddenly feel like something bad is coming.

Find Xia Yun immediately, arrange for her go to Hong Kong to clear her mind.

You're worried about Xia Yun?

Zheng Hao says he wants to reconcile with Xia Yun.

The hearing is tomorrow. I don't want other issues to keep popping up.

You want Xia Yun to leave at such an important time. Would she agree to it?

Just say that I scheduled it.

Older Cousin, don't worry.

Also, change her cell phone number.

Tell Xia Yun not to contact anyone before the case is finished.

Got it.

Zheng Hao.

What are you doing?

You told Xiao Ning that it doesn't start today and aren't letting her come. What exactly do you want to do?

This Friday, no matter what,

Tang Ning can't attend court.

I'll try.

Why did they suddenly postpone the hearing date?

Why didn't the court inform us?

Why are you worried? It happens often.

Plus Zheng Hao personally went to apply for it yesterday.

The notice...it probably hasn't come because of a delay.

You and Zheng Hao are so secretive, I don't know what you two are doing.

What new evidence did you guys uncover?

It's a key piece of evidence.

A traffic jam again.

I said the high speed rail would be better, but you had to drive.

Taking the high speed rail is fast, but we aren't going into the city.

We're going to the Hang Zhou countryside.

We'll be there soon if we drive.

We don't need to change cars. How convenient is that?

What's wrong? Bored?

Here, eat.

Macadamia nuts again?

Don't you like them?

I'm your confidant. Of course I know what you like to eat.

I'm not in the mood to eat.

Don't worry. It'll get better soon.

Exactly what kind of evidence did you guys find?

You'll know later.

You should rest. Take a nap.

Zheng Hao.

Where's sis?

She's busy. She can't come this morning.

- Then what do we do? - Get ready.

You'll be representing your mom today.

Doesn't the court send a notice when they postpone trial start dates?

Yes. Who knows what happened this time?

Are you lying to me?

No. I'm not lying to you.

Zhou Tong.

I don't want to go. Let's go home.

No, this is a really important witness.

I don't believe you. I want to go home now.

Okay. We're going home.

It will get better soon. This road always gets jammed.

Alright, don't speak anymore.

Defendant Representative.

The Plaintiff party requests the court to summon a new witness to court. Do you agree?

My party objects.

Why?

Your Honor.

But this witness can prove this case's important truth.

My party hopes that the Plaintiff party could provide the witness's name and the content they're going to testify.

As long as the Defendant party agrees, I can ask the witness to come.

If witness is in the Witness Resting Room, I need them to come to court immediately.

They're not in the Resting Room.

They're in a safe place.

Why?

To prevent from alarming you.

Because you know them.

For Zheng Hao to do this, how could the Presiding Judge not care?

I think the Presiding Judge knows who the witness is.

Then who might it be?

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Gone with the Shirt Team @ Viki

Mom.

You don't need to be nervous.

Your Honor, Collegial Panel.

The witness's name is He Ya Yin.

Her identity is a little special, because she is my mother.

I object. Your Honor,

He Ya Yin isn't suitable to be a witness.

Why?

She doesn't even understand the case's situation.

Also, she can't possibly know what happened in the hospital 28 years ago.

You think that she doesn't know what happened in the hospital 28 years ago,

it's because you think, she aborted her baby long ago. Is that right?

But in reality, it is the opposite. She gave birth to the child

The hospital she gave birth to was coincidentally, Chuan He District Hospital.

Also, what's more even coincidental,

she and Xia Yun lived in the same patient room.

According to the hospital's records, her birthing time was a bit later than Xia Yun.

It was 1:10am, the next day.

Even if what you say is all true,

what does that have to do with this case?

The point of this case is, whether Tang Ji Ye's child

was a dead or a living infant. Does the witness know?

She doesn't know.

He Ya Yin, do you know?

No, I don't know.

It doesn't matter if you don't know the answer to that question.

Then, let me ask you some questions that you know the answer to

and the situations that you can remember, is that alright?

Yes.

Let me ask you,

in the year 1988, on the 18th of June,

did you give birth to a child in Chuan He District Central Hospital?

Yes.

May I ask,

do you remember if the child you gave birth to

was a son or daughter?

Of course it was a son!

Your mother gave birth to you.

Defendant,

she is the child's mother. Only her words is the evidence that the court wants.

Director Zhong, don't get agitated.

I think Zheng Hao came prepared today. I'm worried...

What are you worried about? Is it possible?

May I ask,

do you remember that day,

whether you give birth to a son or daughter?

I...can I tell the truth?

In the court, you must tell the truth.

I remember that the child I gave birth to...

...seemed to be a daughter.

Then, that is to say,

I am not your child.

Hao Hao.

I'm sorry.

Mom didn't want to hurt you.

Mom, don't worry

I am fine

Hao

He Ya Yin, what was the point?

Apologies, I have not finished questioning

I'm sorry. Can I interrupt with a question?

- Your Honor. - Hao hao, just let him ask.

He Ya Yin, I know that year...

...that year I am sorry to you, sorry to Hao Hao.

But no matter what, no matter how much hatred you have,

you can't severe your affections!

Take a look, take a look.

This is the child you raised for over 20 years.

The child you raised for over 20 years! How can you just break off your ties with him?

Even if you don't acknowledge him today, I can't not acknowledge him.

He is our flesh and blood.

But! But, he really isn't.

- He is, he is! - Defendant, please don't get agitated.

I apologize, Your Honor.

If you don't have evidence, how can you say he isn't?

That year, when you gave birth to the child, you got an illness.

A really serious illness. What illness was it?

Tell the court what illness it was.

No. Can I not say?

You must say it! Whether the court uses your testimony today

depends on your current mental condition!

Then...then wasn't this all because of you?!

Defendant, please be aware of your attitude.

Yes.

That year, I harmed you, made you into this way.

So, when I left you, you entered the mental institution. Your brain became damaged!

Your Honor!

I object the Defendant continuously disturbing my witness.

- Say, wasn't that it?! Tell the court! - I object this question! Your Honor!

- Say, was that it?! - Your Honor!

- I object this question! - Was it?!

Defendant, please control your emotions.

Yes, I was ill.
