What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 299: Chapter 127: I Just Like This Kind of Face-to-Face Feeling!_4

Even if some of it was exaggerated, it was all for the sake of protecting one's rights, so I didn't see any problem with it.

Moreover, those were just words spoken online—these days, can saying something on the internet be wrong?

Once again, there was a call to the police, and this time the officer half persuaded, half warned that if the other party didn't allow you to enter their home, forcibly doing so could lead to administrative detention.

Under such circumstances, Dong Liping finally chickened out, realizing that making a fuss over and over was useless and thinking about whether it might be possible to take legal action.

It's just that the fees for the previous lawyer were too expensive, a bit too much to bear.

But now it seemed there were no good options left.

Suddenly, Dong Liping remembered that Li Huaiqing had mentioned something; Lawyer Tang took on cases for free, doing public welfare—that made her wonder if she could ask that lawyer to do a little public welfare for her too.

No sooner said than done, a phone call was made, and Dong Liping was promptly rebuffed.

"Free? I'll tell you, lawyers cannot take on cases for free, you know that, right? It violates relevant regulations. Who dares to do that these days?"

"Just file a complaint with the bar association against him, taking on cases for free is not allowed!"

After hanging up the phone, Dong Liping felt as if she had grabbed onto some kind of leverage.

On the other side, inside the law firm, the lawyer who had also hung up the phone shook his head; Tang Fangjing was blatantly disrupting the market with this so-called public welfare. Getting someone to report him again would be good.

Otherwise, if this kept going on, how would everyone make a living?

...

For Old Tang, it was another beautiful day.

He had reached an agreement with Li Huaiqing since the case was no longer criminal. In such a case, if he was to help with a lawsuit, he definitely had to charge a fee.

He had no intention of initiating a private criminal prosecution. For one thing, it hadn't reached that level, and for another, too much time had passed, making evidence hard to secure, so suing for defamation was sufficient.

With the transfer records and the testimonies of the doctors and nurses from the hospital at the time, a civil case was basically a sure win, unlike a criminal case that might require surveillance footage.

But so much time had passed that the surveillance footage had already been overwritten. A private criminal prosecution would require a more detailed investigation and gathering of evidence.

To be honest, he was already too lazy to work on this case.

He'd wait for Li Wanting to finish editing the video, then let her handle it, considering it a source of cases.

After calling the firm, Li Wanting readily agreed. Although the fee for the case was low, Old Tang had subsidized it.

In this way, the fee for the case was no different from standard charges. For someone like Li Wanting who couldn't find any cases at all, having a case to work on was better than anything else.

As for Old Tang himself, he was busy securing evidence, like this "Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes."

While others whispered behind the scenes, daring not to come forward, he was the most lively, with various "you all don't understand," claiming to be the most knowledgeable one.

Or there were insinuations of secret inside stories that only someone as connected as him could understand.

Truth be told, Old Tang was genuinely interested in this person now, very keen to find out if he really had such far-reaching influence, if he was indeed the rumored kind of second-generation.

Someone like a catfish stirring the waters would be the most thrilling!

Evil spirits and monsters—he really liked them. Shouting loudly online, huh? Don't be a coward, if you're brave enough, let's meet offline and see!

By the third day, Li Wanting had sent over the edited video and messaged, "Brother Tang, all set. I've been staying up for three nights, and now I even have bags under my eyes..."

"No problem, you're still young, they'll go away in a couple of days..."

Li Wanting: "6".

Old Tang started to carefully review the video, which showed the full process of the case. In addition, he planned to do a voiceover to let the online folks have a good taste of the drama.

In Luzhou City, Jin Xintian, who could barely stand in the bubble tea shop, was looking at the praise online and feeling very pleased.

Of course, a persona needs evidence to support it, so he specifically stole pictures, like those of luxury cars, for example. You might consider it a sort of split personality, but he just loved that feeling.

Showing off without feeling embarrassed...
