"Your Honor, please allow me to introduce to you that what Ms. Fu Qing is holding in her arms is her and Mr. Ma Xiaofeng's son. These - "

Dou Peng said and handed a pile of information to the court:

"It is the paternity test result of the child and Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma Xiaofeng and Ms. An Ran have been married for many years and have never had children. Therefore, Mr. Ma truly loves this child. In order to give the child a good living environment, Mr. Ma and Ms. Fu Qing previously , has always kept the secret of the child's existence. This can also reflect from the side that Mr. Ma Xiaofeng has decided to divorce Ms. An Ran,"

There was an uproar in the courtroom.

An Ran was so excited that she almost stood up, but fortunately Le Yun held her down in time.

"Calm down," she whispered to her. ;

"Well..." The judge frowned, "Let me try to summarize. The current situation is that Ms. Fu Qing is the mother of Mr. Ma Xiaofeng's only child..."

"Your Honor," Li Xiao stood up, "on behalf of my client, I question the credibility of this paternity test. We request the authoritative agency to conduct a new test."

The judge waved his hand and said, "Lawyer Li, we will record your request. Please be patient."

Then he continued:

"Ms. Fu Qing hopes to obtain custody of Mr. Ma Xiaofeng so that she can have the right to remove Mr. Ma Xiaofeng's life support equipment, because according to the provisions of the will, after Mr. Ma's death, she and her children can inherit all of his property."

The judge turned his attention to An Ran:

"Ms. An Ran is Mr. Ma Xiaofeng's legal wife, and she does not agree with Ms. Fu Qing becoming a guardian. Ms. An wants to keep all the life support equipment on Mr. Ma because as long as Mr. Ma is alive and continues to be in a coma, she has the right dispose of all his property."

"Your Honor, the law should be the highest criterion. The marriage of my client, Ms. An Ran and Mr. Ma Xiaofeng, still exists..."

"Your Honor, we believe that Mr. Ma Xiaofeng's true wishes before the car accident should be seriously considered..."

Lawyers from both sides stated their respective reasons and refused to give in to each other.

The court was very lively for a while.

"Silence! Silence!" The judge had to stop the two men. "Two lawyers, I believe that both of you have fully considered the interests of your respective clients and Mr. Ma Xiaofeng himself."

He pondered for a while and then said:

"The court will serve as the temporary guardian of Mr. Ma Xiaofeng. As for whether to continue to maintain Mr. Ma's life support equipment, both of you will present evidence, and ultimately the court will decide based on the evidence. Lawyers for both parties——"

His eyes swept both sides seriously:

"This is a debate about life and death. Please prepare your case statement and relevant testimony carefully. One day later, we will continue to hear the case."

After saying that, the judge announced his withdrawal from the court, stood up and left.

Li Xiao turned around and said to Le Yun: "Go to An Ran's house immediately and find out everything that is of value to us, including emails, chat records, etc., as long as it can prove that he cherishes life, bring everything."

"Okay." Le Yun nodded.

"Where is An Daiqing?"

"I don't know," Le Yun replied, "She was supposed to be in court. But I never saw her."

Li Xiao looked at his watch. The court session would begin in one day. Time was more precious than anything else now.

"Call her," he told Le Yun, "and ask her to go to An Ran's house immediately to meet you."

"Ok."

"I'll go back to the office and look for some more information. Later we will summarize the evidence we found and discuss the strategy for the next trial."

After that, everyone went their separate ways to get busy.
