Chapter 24 Funerals and Court Trials

An Xin looked at the serious look of the deputy director of the neighborhood committee, and suddenly wanted to laugh. Could it be that these old ladies took away the tens of billions of assets of Qingshi Hi-Tech with a piece of A4 printing paper stamped with the official seal of the neighborhood committee? Xia Baishi's mind

Is there water?

Now that you've broken your heart, there's no need to be polite. An Xin waved his hand, and several security personnel in black suits came in and politely asked Xia Baishi and the neighborhood committee cadres to leave.

The moment he was pushed out of the door, Xia Baishi shouted wildly: "An Xin, we'll see you in court!"

An Xin suddenly realized that Xia Baishi bribed the neighborhood committee to appoint a guardian not to seize power on the board of directors, but to use it as an important basis in the court trial. Even though the neighborhood committee was not even the lowest level of government, it stamped the documents it issued.

It is very effective legally.

However, the operation of these tricks is very poor. You must know that Shu Fan is still a few months away from turning 18. As long as it is delayed for a period of time, Shu Fan will be an adult in the legal sense and does not need a guardian to take care of his property.

Xia Baishi naturally had no chance to sing.

Thinking of this, An Xin smiled confidently and waved to She Xiaoqing: "Find me some good lawyers who can handle civil lawsuits."



Xia Baishi was not idle either. His lawyer had already made arrangements. A complaint was submitted to the district court. He chose to sue in the grassroots court. Even if he lost the case, he could still control the final adjudication power in the Municipal Intermediate People's Court. Of course, there was a big figure behind the scenes.

, the lawsuit will never be lost.

The district court quickly accepted the case, and the civil court sent the court summons and civil complaint to An Xin in the shortest possible time.

The court date indicated on the court summons is next week, which shows that Xia Baishi has certain connections in the district court.

She Xiaoqing said angrily: "Xia Baishi is eager to grab the shares. Let's just ignore him and not respond to the lawsuit. Let's see what they do."

An Xin said: "This plays into his agenda. A trial in absentia will be detrimental to us. I am sure of winning this lawsuit."

It's not unreasonable for her to be confident, because Shu Fan is not an incapacitated child. She is already seventeen years old, has the ability to distinguish right from wrong, and has the right to freely choose a guardian. The court is not run by Xia Baishi's family.

You can let him have the final say.

Although she was confident, An Xin asked her lawyer to formulate a comprehensive countermeasure and sent people to investigate the relationship between the person in charge of the neighborhood committee and Xia Baishi. Liu Handong was also pulled into the team. His task was to be responsible for Shu Fan's safety. In fact,

Liu Handong's mind was not here at all. He was thinking about Qingfeng Real Estate.

Hearing that they were discussing how to crack the guardian appointed by the neighborhood committee, Liu Handong's heart moved. Isn't the Hot Spring Community Neighborhood Committee to which Shangfeng Shangshui Villa belongs to the Xiaoshang Village's sphere of influence? He took out Shang Yumin's business card from his pocket.

I tentatively made a phone call.

When Shang Yumin heard that Liu Handong wanted to ask someone from the Hot Spring Neighborhood Committee to apply for a certification document, he immediately patted his chest and said, "It's a small matter. Leave it to me. I'll give you a number. You can contact me later and tell me that I introduced him."

Fifteen minutes later, Liu Handong called this number. The other person claimed to be the secretary of the Wenquan Community Party Branch. His tone was quite polite and he said that the friends of Mr. Shang are my friends. If you need anything, just ask and I will do my best to help.

You do it.

Liu Handong talked about the matter of appointing a guardian, and the secretary took care of it: "Isn't it just a matter of stamping it? You print out the document and I will stamp it for you!"

"Then thank you." Liu Handong immediately reported to An Xin. An Xin asked a lawyer to draft a document designating himself as Shu Fan's guardian, and gave it to Liu Handong to take to the neighborhood committee. Sure enough, the official seal was stamped smoothly, and the secretary also handed Liu Handong the official seal.

I pushed back the good cigarette that was offered to me without saying anything.

"Brother, are you scolding me? Can I ask for your cigarette?" The secretary patted his chest until it turned red, showing a righteous look.

Liu Handong was a little embarrassed. If this thing was to be testified in court, the conflict between the two documents would probably cause trouble to others, so he briefly introduced the ins and outs.

He didn't say anything, but he became even more enthusiastic when he mentioned that the secretary turned out to be enemies with Director Zhang, whom Xia Baishi was looking for. He opened his mouth and cursed: "That stinky bitch named Zhang is a bitch. Her belt is very loose. Who are you seeing?"

Don’t worry about who you come with, I will take care of this matter. Not to mention going to court, even if you go to the province or Beijing, I will accompany you to the end!"

While the Xia family was preparing for a lawsuit urgently, they were also preparing a memorial service for Xia Qingshi. Xia Baishi's name was not included in the funeral committee.

Xia Qingshi's body was placed in the funeral parlor, and the mourning hall was located in the company auditorium. Although there were not many relatives in the Xia family, Xia Qingshi was very friendly during his lifetime. In order to wait for friends from far away to come to pay homage, the funeral was postponed for several days.

On the day of the memorial service, the company's parking lot was full of cars, and there were not enough chairs in the auditorium. The State Council, Academy of Sciences, Jiangdong Provincial Committee and Provincial Government, Omi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Jiangdong University and other units all sent personnel to attend Xia Qingshi's funeral.

The memorial service was hosted by Xia Qingshi's old leader, a retired former State Councilor. It was grand and simple. The auditorium was filled with white wreaths, and there were many names of heavyweights on the streamers.

After the eulogy was recited, they began to pay respects to the remains. Amidst the sounds of mourning music, the leaders had solemn expressions and walked around the crystal coffin. The face of Xia Qingshi lying among thousands of flowers was lifelike, as if he was asleep.

The Xia family stood in a row and accepted the condolences from the leaders. Xia Baishi also stood at the end of the line, with tears in his eyes, shaking hands with the leaders and saying thank you with choked sobs. At this time, family scandals must be covered up, and no matter how big a conflict is, all conflicts must be put aside.

Liao Bichi and Xia Zhou both put on black mourning clothes and lined up behind Xia Baishi with mournful faces. They were a little impatient but did not dare to show it.

Liu Fei also came to attend the memorial service, because the two families had some personal relations. Xu Jiaojiao and Liu Xiaofei also came. When it was Liu Fei's turn to shake hands with An Xin, he said with concern: "My condolences. If you need help, please contact us directly."

Find me."

"Thank you." An Xin remained expressionless and continued to hold another hand.

"Mr. An, email." She Xiaoqing, who was responsible for supporting An Xin, suddenly handed over her mobile phone.

An Xin glared at her angrily, why did this girl have no time to read any emails at the memorial service regardless of the occasion?

"Director Xia's email." She Xiaoqing explained quickly, her voice low.

An Xin grabbed her phone and saw that it was an email sent regularly by Xia Qingshi. The content was exactly what she needed most at the moment.

Liu Fei was shaking hands with Shu Fan when She Xiaoqing's words fell into his ears.

Shu Fan mechanically shook hands with everyone and thanked them. There were no tears in his eyes. Everyone sighed, saying that the child was too sad and might need the intervention of a psychiatrist.

The employees of Qingshi High-Tech, with their arms wrapped in black veils, paid their last respects to the chairman. There were many of them and it took a long time. Shu Fan was exhausted and was helped into the lounge first.

Liu Handong had been standing beside Shu Fan to protect her. There was no one else in the lounge at this moment. He couldn't help but said: "Xiao Fan, just cry when you are sad. It will be better."

Shu Fan's eyes wandered: "Brother, I'm not sad because my father is not dead at all. He is lying to you."

Liu Handong reached out and touched Shu Fan's forehead. It was not hot.

"I'm not sick. This is the agreement between my father and I. He made an agreement with me before entering the operating room that he would never leave me. He is faking his death. What is placed in the crystal coffin is a counterfeit. My father must be hiding under

Where can I watch the performances of these villains?" Shu Fan sneered in a way that did not match her age.

Liu Handong felt a pain in his heart, but he echoed sincerely: "When you say that, it's really possible."

The memorial service finally ended, and Xia Qingshi's body was transported to the crematorium for incineration and then buried in the prepared cemetery.

During the burial, it started to rain lightly. After everything was over, everyone returned to the car. Only An Xin stood in front of the tomb holding a black umbrella, unwilling to leave for a long time.

"Qingshi, are you really not leaving?" An Xin murmured to herself. The email she just received was crucial. With this evidence, the lawsuit will definitely be won.



In the Civil Division of Yunshan District People's Court, the presiding judge announced the opening of the case regarding Shu Fan's guardianship dispute. There were not many people in the court, and the auditorium was empty. Even the plaintiff and defendant were not present. Only the attorneys of both parties appeared.

The plaintiff had only one powerful weapon, which was the document stating that Xia Baishi was appointed as the guardian by the neighborhood committee. However, the defendant also produced the same document. However, after court verification, the official seal on the document designated by the defendant was that of the Wenquan Community Party Branch, not that of the Wenquan Community Party Branch.

It is the official seal of the neighborhood committee, so it will not be adopted.

The court was obviously biased in favor of the plaintiff, but the defendant's lawyer was well prepared and produced a letter of appointment issued by Qingshi High-tech. The law stipulates that if there is a dispute over the appointment of a guardian, the minor's parent's unit or the minor's employer shall be responsible.

The residents' committee and village committee of the adult's residence are designated among close relatives, and the documents issued by Qingshi High-Tech and the neighborhood committee have the same legal effect.

The two sides reached a draw and did not continue to argue over the appointment. The plaintiff's lawyer pointed out that An Xin and Shu Fan were not related by blood, and there was no marital relationship with Xia Qingshi, so she was not suitable to be Shu Fan's guardian.

Not to be outdone, the defendant produced a handwritten letter from Shu Fan, in which he stated to the court that he refused to accept Xia Baishi as his guardian.

"President, I protest!" the plaintiff's lawyer said, "Shu Fan is a person with limited capacity. I have reason to believe that this statement did not come from her original intention. I even doubt whether the ward's personal freedom can be guaranteed.

, the truth that blood is thicker than water will never change. One is my father’s brother, and the other is an outsider who can’t even be called a stepmother. I think the presiding judge will make a correct judgment on who to believe.”

The defendant's lawyer pushed up his glasses and took out his trump card, which was a thick kraft paper file bag filled with documents, photos and a memory card.

"The contents here are enough to prove that Xia Baishi once hired someone to kidnap and murder Shu Fan. How could such a person serve as a guardian?" the defendant's lawyer said with confidence.

This bag of things was left by Xia Qingshi. He had already found out that his elder brother was the real culprit behind the scenes. He did not pursue the responsibility due to family ties, but he kept the evidence, and now it finally comes in handy.

The evidence is quite detailed, including records from the public security organs, recordings of Xia Baishi's personal admission, and all relevant materials about the kidnapping case at that time.

As soon as the trump card came out, the plaintiff's lawyer immediately stopped and became dejected.

The court adjourned temporarily, and after deliberation announced its decision: Xia Baishi was appointed as Shu Fan's guardian, effective immediately.
