Wen Shining, already overwhelmed by Li Hannian, stood as the accused, her complexion pale, looking utterly lifeless like a rubber doll.
Under the judge's interrogation, she barely rebutted and obediently confessed to her crimes.
Because she had stolen a novel manuscript, which could not be numerically valued. However, considering Chu Nanxi's previous novel sales data, her manuscript also possessed very high economic value. From all aspects considered, it was ultimately determined that Wen Shining had committed a very serious act of theft.
After comprehensive consideration, Wen Shining was sentenced to twenty years in prison.
Following that, the plagiarist, Bai Jingyi, was brought to court.
Trying to save her daughter, Bai Yanming spent his entire fortune to hire the best lawyer for her.
In court, to absolve herself of guilt, Bai Jingyi only admitted that she found the manuscript and denied conspiring with Wen Shining, claiming she had no knowledge of the matter.
