Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 502 - 364. Only to Say "I Love You" Again (Part 2)

Little Wallace’s case was going to trial, and all media outlets were focused on it.

Shi Nian, representing "Deep Throat," went to cover it and encountered Little Niu, representing "Black Curtain," at the trial’s scene.

Little Niu proactively greeted her, "Sister Hour, I’m Little Niu. I used to be with Sister Xiong, please take care of me."

Shi Nian silently sighed. The day she and Xiong Jie had exchanged sparks over interviewing Tang Yanqing at the media seating was still vivid, yet now so quickly in front of her was a newcomer.

Of course, a media outlet wouldn’t shut down due to a reporter’s departure, but facing another face made Shi Nian quite uncomfortable. Although Little Niu’s greeting was more courteous than Xiong Jie ever was, Shi Nian couldn’t help but miss Xiong Jie’s sharp tongue.

Shi Nian smiled, "Little Niu, you’re too polite. You’re now the lead writer, and I’ve read many of your articles. Very impressive."

Little Niu shrugged, "But Sister Hour knows, the media world doesn’t just look at writing skills; it also banks on networking. No matter how good you write, without connections, you can’t dig resources, and you’ll be at the bottom; conversely, if your writing is a bit poor but you have enough resources, you can still do well."

Shi Nian nodded. The media industry values hierarchy, not in terms of years but in terms of accumulating connections and resources. Little Niu rose unexpectedly by replacing Xiong Jie, but this was under Ali’s forced support. Little Niu lacks experience and resources, so without Ali’s support, obstacles were inevitable.

Shi Nian had experienced such feelings herself, so she patted her shoulder and encouraged, "Don’t lose heart. Everyone’s resources are accumulated bit by bit, time is the best paving stone. As long as you can be patient, your resources will naturally become abundant."

Shi Nian spoke genuinely, but wouldn’t have realized that once she walked away, Little Niu turned back and coldly laughed with her assistant Qiu Yuan, "What gives her the right, isn’t it relying on men? The Kangchuan University case was tied to the chairman, and then with Tang Yanqing. Today’s trial has a prosecutor that is Tang Family’s niece; the defense lawyer is her ex-husband. With relationships like these, she naturally gets top resources, writing articles isn’t anything special, that’s how she can outshine us."

In media, income is directly tied to the numbers and sales of articles. This time in the interview, their resources were clearly no match for Shi Nian, hence the expected differences in sales. Qiu Yuan, naturally aligned with Little Niu, couldn’t help but join in taunting, "Exactly! Even the defendant Little Wallace’s father, his biggest campaign backer is Huangfu Hua Zhang! So with prosecution, defense, and the family belonging to her connections!"

.

The trial began, there weren’t many surprises during the presentation of evidence: the prosecution focused tightly on the victim’s allegations, while the defense laid out the hundred-year traditions of the high school.

The key lay in the cross-examination phase.

Shi Nian watched An Cheng’s performance closely.

But An Cheng didn’t aim at the allegations of the case initially, instead, she chatted with Little Wallace, "Honestly, don’t you feel you look exactly like Jude Law 30 years younger? So handsome."

A faint hissing arose in the courtroom, murmuring about how, "What’s with this female prosecutor, is she swooning?"

Little Wallace seemed surprised, raising an eyebrow, "Hmm, they’ve said that too. But I think Jude Law is too old. He might have been handsome when young, but now at his age, comparing me with him is really tasteless."

An Cheng seized the moment, "Indeed. Now that you mention it, I think you’re even more handsome than Jude Law!"

Little Wallace raised his eyes arrogantly, "You’ve got an eye."

In the seating, Tang Yanxi curved his lips.

Tang Yanqing also smiled lowly, "What an idiot. But then he’s still young. Is An Cheng taking advantage of a child here?"

An Cheng continued her advantage, "Being so handsome, as the son of the Wallace family, you must be the prince at school, all girls see you and their eyes light up, just like mine, right?"

Little Wallace’s expression increasingly relaxed with pride, "Of course."

"So you naturally believe that all the girls in school like you, being with anyone is their privilege, right?" An Cheng subtly probed the corners.
