In the latter half of the same year, Sheng Xian made headlines again due to a controversial case.
The reason was that he had taken on a case to defend a client who had a criminal record and had served twenty years in prison.
Upon release, the client had taken up a job as a delivery worker.
The deceased was a young internet celebrity, and on the day in question, Sheng Xian's client had delivered a package to their home, making him the prime suspect.
In the eyes of most, this client with a criminal record was the murderer, so when Sheng Xian argued for his innocence, it was no surprise that he was criticized heavily online once again.
Facing the pressure of public opinion, Sheng Xian steadfastly maintained his client's innocence, and ultimately, the police investigation proved him right.
His client was indeed wrongfully accused, and the internet celebrity's death was a mere accident.
After the case was resolved, Sheng Xian was interviewed by a media outlet.
