Chapter 51: Chapter 46: Life with Cheats is Just That Boring (Combined)_2
It was just that in my previous life I offended my peers purely for profit, while in this one, it's for my life.
The group of lawyers is quite formidable, but that's about it; otherwise, so many lawyers wouldn't be touting the lawyer system of the "beautiful country." What do you think they're after?
All the way to the execution bureau of Guangming District Court, when I pushed the door open, wow, everyone was a familiar face.
"Judge Li, what a coincidence meeting you again!"
The enforcement judge inside, Li Qunfeng, was chatting with Li Changming. Hearing that, he turned his head and said, "Tang Fangjing? What are you doing here, aren't you busy with your neighborhood's property committee?"
It was only because Judge Li was so cultivated that he didn't blurt out "How come you're still alive?"
The last time I came to the enforcement bureau, I looked like I was going to drop dead the next second. It scared him so much that he hastily postponed all the enforcement cases and went straight to Bluebird Company for an on-the-spot enforcement.
And now, half a year has passed, and not only is this guy bouncing around full of life, but he has also established a property committee, forcing the property management to cough up over a decade's earnings and incidentally sent a few people to learn sewing machine technology...
Now people are beginning to wonder if this guy's cancer was ever for real.
Naturally, there were such discussions online, but as soon as they emerged, they were countered by Handong Province People's Hospital.
For goodness' sake, that diagnosis certificate was issued by us, and the guy is still receiving treatment here every month. Now you're saying his cancer is fake?
Who are you doubting here, come on out and let us have a look!
Then the skeptical remarks just disappeared.
"Judge Li, well, I mean... oh no, beside me, Attorney Song is Mr. Ju's lawyer, and I'm just following for an internship. It's about finalizing the case, right?"
To finalize means to end this execution. Put in layman's terms, it means the court has tried everything but no solution was found, so they're temporarily giving up on it.
In theory, it requires the signature of the parties involved, but that's in theory...
Li Qunfeng was taken aback and said, "Wait, what's going on? Attorney Li here is Mr. Ju's lawyer; how come there is also Attorney Song?"
Li Changming, who had been silent since Tang Fangjing and the others came in, also said, "Yes, I'm also curious. I've been handling this case; why is there now an additional entrusted lawyer?"
Old Song remained silent, but his eyes signaled - we had an agreement. You handle your cases, and I stand in as an official lawyer, and then I get fifty percent.
You fooled me before, making me do all the work while you lounged around every day, which clearly was not right.
Tang Fangjing didn't care and stepped forward with a smile, "Sorry, sorry, Attorney Li, don't misunderstand, Old Song and I are not targeting you, we just think your firm should take responsibility!"
As soon as Old Tang spoke, it was too late for Old Song to cover his mouth.
Dammit, why does such a fine young man have to speak up? From now on, it might be better for me to do the talking. At least Old Song would never manage to offend everybody with just one sentence...
Over here Tang Fangjing wasn't concerned about all that. Everyone was already ripping off the façade, so why be polite? If you've got something to say, just say it, no point in holding back and being uncomfortable.
The senior experts from Handong Province People's Hospital's oncology department had instructed him to maintain a happy mood every day, with evidence!
"Yes, it's... I mean, Old Song is the lawyer singed by Mr. Ju to sue your firm... Old Song, why the wink, do you have dry eyes?"
Old Song: "...You're asking me if my eyes are dry?"
He felt like he had boarded a ship of thieves; each case was more bizarre than the last, and he seemed a bit overwhelmed.
Li Changming's expression suddenly turned grim, and he said to Ju Haiqing, "So you sued our firm, huh? Alright then, after all the running around I've done for you, instead of blaming the developer for the unsuccessful enforcement, you're causing trouble for our firm?"
He didn't ask about the lawsuit, which was simple: the contract was signed with the firm, and naturally, the firm had to bear the consequences.
Ju Haiqing might be wealthy, but she wasn't exactly sure how to respond to this situation and instinctively looked beside her.
Old Tang didn't get a response, but he heard Li Changming's words and immediately said with a puzzled face, "Attorney Li, what do you mean by that? Wasn't it you who suggested to Mr. Ju that if he thought there was a problem, he could resolve it through legal means?"
"He is resolving it through the legal process now, so why do you seem so displeased? He's completely following the advice of you, his lawyer..."
Li Qunfeng, standing aside, was already enjoying the show. He was, of course, very clear about the case, but it was tough to say who was at fault.
Legally, there's no definitive ruling for this kind of situation, nor are there similar cases, so he stayed silent, watching the drama unfold.
And I'll tell you, this little comrade Tang's sarcastic words were just like a comedy show...
Li Changming's face turned beet red as he fumed, "Fine, you want to play it like this? Let's go to court then. I, a lawyer, am not afraid of lawsuits, but let me remind you, Ju Haiqing, don't end up spending a ton of money for nothing again!"
This time, Tang Fangjing didn't need to speak as Ju Haiqing directly responded: "I didn't spend any money; they are risk representatives. If I lose the lawsuit, I don't have to pay."
At that, Li Changming's face went completely pale as he glared at Tang Fangjing and shouted, "What's wrong with you, are you out of your mind, huh? Why would you take on a risk representation for this guy? Is he your father, for you to help him like this?"
"What the hell did I do to you, for you to go so hard against me, huh?"
