Chapter 425: Mr. Lu, Congratulations!

Is it possible that this woman actually wants her husband to go Treading the Sewing Machine?

Because that is the only way to explain her bizarre maneuvers.

At the very least, this is the only reason Hu Xue can think of right now.

Actually, if it were just that, it would be fine; it would just mean the subsequent Lawsuit couldn't be taken on, and the other party would think she was incompetent.

But she actually ran into Zhou Xinran, and lost face in front of Zhou Xinran!

Basically everyone knows that life always has its dissatisfactions, and when things aren't going well, people will still act very calm in front of strangers.

Even if a client curses them to their face for a long time, it's just how it is when it's over; life must go on.

But if seen by former classmates or friends, especially those with a "special relationship," one would only want to Wandering Earth.

However, Wang Yanan over here saw that Hu Xue hadn't spoken for a long time and immediately grew anxious.

"Lawyer Hu, say something! What exactly is going on? I'm telling you, you've already taken the money!"

If Wang Daoren were here, he would certainly be familiar with these words; in any case, if things go wrong, it's the Lawyer's fault.

If it were before, Hu Xue would certainly explain it properly, but now, she just wants to argue.

"I say something? Is there any room for me to speak here? What did I say before we came? Did I tell you not to speak, and did you listen?" Hu Xue shouted directly.

"You still have the nerve to talk back? You are the Lawyer, I say a couple of things..."

"That's right, I am a Lawyer, not a magician. Can I conjure your husband out of thin air? If I could do that, why would I be a shitty Lawyer? I would have made a fortune long ago!"

In the heat of the moment, who cares about the Lawyer management regulations? Anyway, it is what it is; let it be whatever it will be.

Wang Yanan was trembling with rage, pointing at Hu Xue and stuttering for a long time, but she didn't know what to say.

You have to believe one thing: Lawyers, especially those who do Litigation, many of them aren't incapable of arguing; they just... don't want to argue.

In this regard, they are professionals.

"What 'you' what? I told you and you didn't listen, acting on your own impulses. Even after apologizing, you still put on that bargaining act. Who are you showing that to?"

"Who do you think you are? Just because you say something, everyone has to listen to you? You think you can dismiss people with that little bit of money? Are you dreaming? And now you come to blame me?"

"With an attitude like yours, just wait for your husband to be sentenced to the maximum!"

Wang Yanan was truly angered. She had been out of touch with society for too long, and because Lu Yan did business before, every time she went to the shop, others treated her with great respect.

Over time, this personality would change...

This is not nonsense. You can go and see; in many cases, those so-called extremely unreasonable and shrewish people all think they have heaven-reaching connections.

In reality, they are just the family members of the owner of some small Company.

Having become accustomed to bossing people around in their family member's Company, they feel that everyone in society must respect them too.

Dare to speak loudly to them? How dare they!

What? The boss?

The owner of a small Company knows the score in their heart. Outside, they have to play the fool; there are so many "daddies" above them that one careless move could offend someone. Would they dare to be so arrogant outside the Company?

So now, facing Hu Xue, Wang Yanan could only say: "Fine, you just wait. I am going to file a complaint against you right now. I will make sure you can never be a Lawyer again!"

"Great! Do you want me to tell you where the Jingzhou Lawyers Association is? You probably can't even find it. I'll tell you this: even if you asked me to do it, I wouldn't bother!"

Having said that, Hu Xue picked up her bag and left the gym with a gust of wind.

Leaving only Wang Yanan behind, panting heavily.

And as Hu Xue walked to the entrance, she saw a man and a woman standing there.

Yes, that's right, Zhou Xinran and Zhou Yi hadn't left at all.

Seeing Hu Xue look over, Zhou Mouren hurriedly turned around, pretending to be studying the gym door.

Eh, wasn't there an Electronic Seal before? Oh, I remember now, the relevant Electronic Seal had already been removed by the Court.

Generally speaking, for Pre-litigation Property Preservation, if a Lawsuit is filed within thirty days after the preservation, then according to the Supreme People's Court's Judicial Interpretation, it is generally assumed to continue until after the judgment.

However, this is the general situation.

But after a certain handsome guy took some special measures to get Lu Yan arrested, the situation became a bit different.

Zhou Xinran had already submitted an application to the Court to have the Court lift the preservation, because it was no longer necessary.

Applying for preservation before was done with the thought of making the other party have some misgivings.

This is also the effect of applying for preservation in many real-life situations.

You don't pay back the money, so I will apply for preservation, freeze your assets first, and then wait for you to beg me!

In reality, there was once a classic case where a certain "Goose" applied to freeze the account of a certain "Godmother."

It turned out in the end that... it was actually scammers impersonating an Employee of the Godmother who did it.

So you tell me, sometimes you really have to admit that those people are truly "talents," because we ordinary people can't even imagine how this was done.

But now, Lu Yan has been arrested and his assets have been seized; it can basically be determined that the money in these accounts was taken from the Company's accounts.

And the amount of this money is not small, so there is no need to worry about the execution issue, and naturally, there is no need to preserve it anymore.

The most critical thing is that Zhou Yi has his eyes on this gym equipment.

And if this equipment remained under seizure, it would be quite troublesome if he wanted to buy it, so he simply lifted the preservation.

It's just that it wasn't convenient to talk right now. He had just wanted to leave directly, but ended up being dragged by Zhou Xinran to stay and watch the drama.

The two women got closer and closer, looking at each other. Zhou Yi felt that they might start fighting in the next second.

Should he help Zhou Xinran then...

However, he saw Zhou Xinran speak: "Well scolded!"

Hu Xue nodded: "Of course it was well scolded!"

As they spoke, the two reached out and high-fived, and then Hu Xue just left directly, full of presence.

Zhou Yi: "..."

It was a little different from what he imagined; he didn't get to see the two women fight.

Every time I go to get a gym membership, I worry about being ripped off, so why not just open a gym myself? Then I won't have to worry about being ripped off anymore.

Let's see, everything here is ready-made.

Ready-made renovations, ready-made equipment.

The lease has already expired, so I can just find the Property Management to rent it, and tell the Property Management that I like the original flavor of this place.

Then, find Zhao Zhipeng; after all, he is still the boss of this Company, so I can just go to him directly to buy this batch of equipment at the cheapest price.

There is no need to worry about him daring to say anything; having been taken away once, Zhao Zhipeng is now like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow.

And most importantly, this equipment was originally meant to be taken away by Lu Yan!

But now, since you, Lu Yan, are already inside, who calls the shots here? Naturally, it is Zhao Zhipeng!

Zhou Yi only wants to buy this equipment; as for whether Zhao Zhipeng puts the money into the Company or keeps it for himself, that is his own business.

In any case, Zhou Yi must definitely transfer the money into the Company account here; there cannot be any problems legally.

I promised to find jobs for Huang Xiaokang and the others, but they definitely cannot enter Tenda; after all, they don't understand anything else, so just let them continue working here.

When the time comes, I'll issue membership cards to the Company's Employees, so everyone can come and exercise whether they have something to do or not, to avoid any physical problems.

Tenda has now become a benchmark!

What is a benchmark? Those standing at the forefront of the storm are benchmarks, and people call Tenda the Laborers' Home.

So imagine, if a sudden death of some Employee occurred at Tenda, how do you think society would evaluate it?

The higher they held Tenda and Zhou Yi up before, the more miserably they will fall afterward!

I could even issue a regulation at that time that Tenda Employees need to clock in when they come here to exercise.

If everyone's weekly exercise frequency and standards meet the requirements, there will be an additional exercise bonus.

In any case, the Company is getting more and more prosperous, but he can only take ten percent; as for the remaining money, as long as it is within the Company, he can spend it however he wants.

If there's no money, just find the System grandson to grind some tasks and it'll be there, right?

The money in the Virtual Account cannot be used directly; that's a matter for a Lawsuit.

System money, can that be called Money Laundering? That is called Legal Aid!

Hu Xue can now swear on her conscience that the woman named Wang Yanan absolutely wants her own husband to go to jail!

Have you ever seen such a thing where, at such a critical moment, instead of rushing to find a Lawyer to apply for Bail Pending Trial for her husband, she instead chases after a Lawyer to file endless complaints?

Really, Wang Yanan comes to the firm, goes to the Lawyers Association, goes to the Judicial Bureau, writes all kinds of materials, files all kinds of complaints; looking at her, it seems she wants to make sure Hu Xue can never be a Lawyer for the rest of her life.

She has completely forgotten that her own husband is still inside, bitterly waiting for her to handle his bail...

Lu Yan is really miserable right now; he has even asked the handling police officers why his Bail Pending Trial hasn't been processed yet.

The answer: No one applied.

After hearing this, Lu Yan was so angry he nearly cracked.

Of course, as a criminal suspect, he can also apply for Bail Pending Trial himself.

However, for the two methods of Bail Pending Trial—a guarantor and a security deposit—he, a suspect currently being detained, cannot manage these at all.

What is Wang Yanan doing? At such a critical moment, if only he could get out, he could find a way to pull some strings.

Why is it that even a Bail Pending Trial isn't being handled now? And didn't that Lawyer last time say they were just about to handle it? Why is there no movement!

In the Detention House, Lu Yan is truly living like a year for every day.

Fortunately, the brothers here speak very nicely.

"Let me tell you, it's eighty percent likely your old lady ran off with someone, you know? It must be like that; seeing you're about to go to jail, she packed up, sold the family assets, and ran away directly."

"You don't believe it? I've seen too many cases like this. Let me tell you, I have a friend whose wife was just..."

Look at that, even the brothers in the Detention House are using their own examples to illustrate, and you still don't believe it?

On the first day, Lu Yan wouldn't let his mind wander; he believed his wife wasn't that kind of person and that she would definitely be trying all sorts of ways.

But as day after day passed and there was still no movement, Lu Yan collapsed.

…………

It is another sunny day; the spring sunshine is becoming more and more bright, and the footsteps of summer are getting closer.

Wang Yanan stood inside the Shenhui Law Firm and pointed at Hu Xue, saying: "Keep shouting! Keep shouting! I said if I make it so you can't be a Lawyer, I will make it so you can't be a Lawyer!"

Her complaints were still useful; after all, those words Hu Xue said at the time did not comply with the regulations.

However, facing Wang Yanan's accusations, Hu Xue said without a trace of expression: "It's fine, it's just a Suspension of Practice for three months; I won't starve to death."

"On the contrary, you seem to have forgotten something, haven't you?"

Wang Yanan was stunned: What did I forget?

"Is there a possibility that you actually have a husband, and his case is already about to go to trial?"

What? Wang Yanan was directly dumbfounded; I actually do have a husband, don't I? How is it already about to go to trial?

Key point: for a Public Prosecution Case, neither the Procuratorate nor the Court is necessarily required to notify the Defendant's family.

There is no such provision in the law.

Unless there are special circumstances, such as the Defendant being a minor...

So Wang Yanan had no idea that the case had already passed the Review and Prosecution stage and the Procuratorate had initiated a Public Prosecution!

For the Crime of Refusing to Pay Labor Remuneration, a very critical point in this crime is whether the labor remuneration you failed to pay can be made up before the Public Prosecution, and whether the compensation can be in place before the Public Prosecution.

These will greatly affect your sentencing...

After finishing, Hu Xue looked at the stunned Wang Yanan and shook her head; this woman, she couldn't see through her.

May 20th, a good day for a court hearing.

Zhou Yi got up early; he was going to watch the trial and, incidentally, participate in the afternoon's court hearing.

The morning is the Public Prosecution of Lu Yan by the Criminal Division No. 2, and the afternoon is the Civil Litigation against Miracle Company by the Civil Division No. 1.

The first batch being tried includes him, that Shizi, and several others, totaling only seven or eight people.

Others also filed a Lawsuit when they learned that Lü Yan was going to jail, but they were late in time and were listed in the second batch of cases.

He had already reached an agreement with Zhao Zhipeng to buy those pieces of equipment, and after that, this place would have nothing to do with Qiji Limited Liability Company.

The house and the building Property Management were settled, the relevant fees had already been paid, and the specific operations were all done by Tenda.

After all, this fitness gym actually belonged to Tenda.

Now, they are processing some paperwork and incidentally purchasing some new equipment.

The staff members are Huang Xiaokang and the others; now, Store Manager Huang is a store manager again.

Standing at the entrance of the Guangming District Court, Shizi also couldn't help but say: "I didn't expect that we would really be able to send that man surnamed Lü inside; this feeling is like a dream."

Five times, no one understands the running-away tactics of a Fitness Gym Boss better than him, yet he didn't expect that this time he could actually send someone inside!

This feeling is really great.

Especially thinking that after the court trial verdict in a while, that man surnamed Lü might cry bitterly, he would really be very excited.

The louder the other party cries, the more excited he gets...

This is not being a pervert; many people will sympathize with those criminals who cry until they are covered in snot and tears, and some even say whether they should be given another chance.

But only those who have experienced it will know how hateful this is!

One really wishes to let the other party go down to the eighteenth level of hell; at this time, if you tell him to give others a chance, it is very likely he will want to send you to see the Buddha.

Other fitness gym customers who were free today also came; everyone wants to enjoy the show.

Huang Xiaokang stood to the side; this person has now become a loyal supporter of President Zhou, truly never saying 'two' when President Zhou says 'one'.

Fang Dazhuang didn't come today, and Zhou Xinran is said to have gone to play with that Lawyer Hu; women are truly a strange species.

The court trial began, and Zhou Yi saw Wang Yanan sitting a bit further ahead at a glance; she was staring at Lü Yan in the Defendant's seat, crying the whole time.

However, Lü Yan lowered his head and didn't look at her at all; he had probably already given up hope.

By the time of the Public Prosecution, there was no chance of getting out, and the lawyer was just a Legal Aid Lawyer assigned by the Court.

Moreover, he was told that his family members were only contacted two days before the trial.

How do you expect Lü Yan to think? Just thinking about himself going to jail while his wife took the family's money and ran off with a wild man makes his heart ache.

He himself took the fitness gym's money and ran away, and now, his wife took his money and ran away; this is probably retribution...

Other matters were actually not that serious; the fatal blow came from the evidence provided by Huang Xiaokang.

The meaning of the four words "serious circumstances" in Criminal Law is truly very different.

The starting sentence is three years!

Not to mention, he hadn't obtained a Letter of Forgiveness and hadn't resolved any problems.

As for the Legal Aid Lawyer... this existence, well, just listen to it and that's enough.

Are there serious and responsible Legal Aid Lawyers? Of course there are, but this is like a lottery.

This is the reality; it cannot be solved just by promoting how serious and responsible this Legal Aid Lawyer is.

The Final Statement began, and Lü Yan started to speak; after saying a few sentences, he cried like a newborn baby.

"I was wrong, I was really wrong, I beg the government to give me another chance; I really didn't intentionally delay their wages, I..."

Having stayed in the Detention House for a period of time, listen to these words; he speaks them so smoothly.

Then... Wang Yanan also started to cry.

"Husband, I have let you down..."

And beside her, the child was also crying.

Today, everyone is very happy!

Not in a good state, a shameful one-update beast..

Thanks to another newcomer brother, Brother Fenglingzhiguang, Wenchidage, Brother Pianpian, Brother Wfei, Brother A'bohuosi, thanks to the brothers for the tips, thank you.
