After the trial began, the prosecutor first read out the indictment, telling the detailed process of the case and the legal terms touched by the six defendants.

The prosecution and defense then responded and crossed the testimony. Since both parties had no objection to the series of testimony involved in the supermarket robbery, witnesses were not required to appear in court.

The six defendants had no objection to the crimes accused by the prosecution. The argument was that because Chen Lijun did not injure the hostages, all the six defendants were eventually arrested. Is this behavior considered to be a manifestation of meritorious service or remorse?

The prosecution believes that Chen Lijun's behavior cannot be considered a repentance, nor can it be considered a meritorious service, because the hostage he held was his own sister. His act of hostage hostage was a crime of more than a crime. Although he eventually gave up the hostage, it cannot be classified as repentance or meritorious service.

Lawyer Wang of the defense tried his best to defend Chen Lijun, believing that because of Chen Lijun's behavior, the robbery failed, the funds were not lost, and all the suspects were brought to justice, which to a certain extent showed remorse and meritorious service.

Due to the dispute between the prosecution and the defense, the court finally announced the trial result at a date.

......

A few days later, the court finally failed to support Lawyer Wang's defense and sentenced Chen Lijun to five years in prison.

The moment he was sentenced, Chen Lijun looked at Tong Dayong hatred, feeling a sense of hatred that "this hatred is not a gentleman" was in his eyes.

Wu Changlan walked out of the court with a look of frustration, accompanied by Tong Dayong and Chen Lan.

Tong Dayong started the car and drove Wu Changlan and Chen Lan on the way to Xixiang. Chen Lan sat with her mother in the back row of the car, comforting her mother all the way, saying that Chen Lijun was just to make him suffer, otherwise he would never learn well and would always be the object of everyone's hard work.

After the car arrived at Chentian Industrial Zone, Tong Dayong first took Wu Changlan to his residence, and then went to work with Chen Lan.

It was around 10 o'clock in the morning, and Tong Dayong and Chen Lan returned to their offices and started their day's work.

After a while of busyness, Tong Dayong received a call from Xu Bingbing, saying that the panel plan for the 10,000 machines required people from Dongchuang Company and Shunfa Company to negotiate and confirm.

However, at this time Liu Qing was far away in Guangzhou, so Tong Dayong had to go to Shekou in person.

When Tong Dayong rushed to Shekou Shunfa Company, Tang Lijuan and the relevant person in charge were waiting for him in the reception room. After some discussion and negotiation, the final plan was determined.

It was already time to get off work, and Tong Dayong walked into Xu Bingbing's office, where she was still working hard.

Tong Dayong knocked on the door lightly, Xu Bingbing raised her head and immediately smiled when she saw it was him.

"Aren't you off work yet? The time has come." Tong Dayong said as he sat down on the chair opposite her.

"It's the end of the year, I have a lot of work. I've often been so busy these days that I forgot about time." Xu Bingbing stretched out her tired hands.

"Don't you still have to go filming after the New Year? What if you leave, what should you do if the company is going to do?"

"There is no way, let's talk about it then. It's impossible to leave it to Tang Lijuan entirely. She has her job. If it really doesn't work, she can only hire a professional manager to manage it."

Tong Dayong smiled and said, "I have to do this. It is impossible to let you put down your acting career."

Xu Bingbing left her desk and came to Tong Dayong standing, "I thought so before. If my TV series doesn't react well after it starts, it proves that I am still not good at acting. Then I will give up my acting career and focus on running the company left by my father. If it becomes popular, I will give up the company and continue acting. It seems that this is destined by God."

"It's not destined by God, but your efforts and talent in your acting career have been confirmed, and facts have proved that you are suitable for this path."

Xu Bingbing smiled, "There must be a choice in life. Let's go, let's have a meal, and I'm hungry."

"What do you want to eat?"

"We went to Nanyou, and a new Hong Kong-style tea restaurant was opened there, which tasted pretty good."

Speaking of Nanyou, Tong Dayong remembered Amei, "Have you been to Nanyou every day recently?"

"It's almost the same. I'm close anyway. Whenever I have time, I'll go around. I believe that one day I will meet my sister." When he said this, Xu Bingbing's eyes shone with hope.

The two walked out of the company together and drove the Focus sedan to Nanyou. After finding a place to park the car, Xu Bingbing took out a black mask with a cartoon pattern from her bag and put it on.

When Tong Dayong saw this, he smiled and said, "It seems that it is better to be an ordinary person and be free."

"There are gains and losses. If you want to be a public figure, you have to sacrifice the freedom and unrestrainedness of some ordinary people."

When the two got out of the car, Tong Dayong asked, "I'm a little curious, how did your company's employees get along with you during this period? Is there anyone asking you to sign and take photos every day?"

"Did you ask me if I have signed it? Have you taken photos with me because of this TV series?" Xu Bingbing asked back.

"This is not true." Tong Dayong said with a smile.

"So, people who are often together don't need these things. Those who need signatures and photos are those who are hard to see."

"So, the easier things are to get, the less people cherish them. It seems that you still have to ask you to sign me and take a photo together when you have time."

"screw you!"

The two walked into the restaurant that Xu Bingbing mentioned while chatting and laughing. Because it was lunchtime, the restaurant was almost full, so they had to choose a corner to sit down, order the food they liked, and continue chatting while eating.

After lunch, there was still some time left, Xu Bingbing put on her mask, and the two walked out of the restaurant and walked on the street for a while.

As people came and went, they were paying attention to everyone who seemed to be Amei.

"Let's go to the mall to go for a walk. Women all like that kind of place. Amei is a clothing seller. If she doesn't open a store, she will definitely like to go for a shopping mall." Xu Bingbing suggested.

So the two walked into the large shopping mall where they came to look for Amei for the first time, and slowly wandered among the bustling crowd.

Today, there are promotional activities in the mall, so there are many people coming and going. In addition, it is close to the end of the year, and the business in the mall is also booming. Although it is not a weekend, you can also feel the strong shopping atmosphere.

"How do you celebrate the Chinese New Year this year? Do you want to go back to your hometown?" Xu Bingbing asked.

"I haven't planned yet, so let's talk about it then. I guess I can't go back, because the production task in the factory has been heavy during this period, and I only have a few days off. I don't have fun when I go back, so I might as well stay in Shenzhen for the New Year."

"Okay, then I'll celebrate the New Year with you, okay?"

"Okay, with you, the big star, the atmosphere will definitely be much better."

During the chat, Xu Bingbing saw the sign in the bathroom in the mall and said, "I'll go to the bathroom, you're waiting for me here."

"Okay, no problem."

Xu Bingbing walked into the passage to the bathroom, and Tong Dayong stood at the entrance of the passage waiting. In boredom, he stared at the people in the mall, hoping to see Amei.

Suddenly, he heard a commotion in the passage to the bathroom, as if someone was watching some fun. He leaned closer and saw that Xu Bingbing had come out of the bathroom, forgot to wear it because she took off her mask and was recognized.

"I'm not Xu Bingbing, you have recognized the wrong person!" Xu Bingbing covered her face with her hands, pushed away the crowd and walked out quickly, almost colliding with Tong Dayong.
