What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 140: Humans, these creatures, haha



The internet was once again rife with waves caused by some comments. Who can't find fault? And what about saving people? Just because you save someone, does that mean you can just make promises willy-nilly?

The situation is critical? I don't care about all that. Anyway, you definitely shouldn't make promises lightly. Aren't you a well-known lawyer? Don't you even understand that?

In Jingzhou, within a neighborhood, Hu Jia, in her twenties and only a couple of years out of college, was continuously tapping on her keyboard.

The reason she was posting these things online wasn't for anything else but for traffic, to make money.

She had originally planned to become an internet celebrity by promoting products, but soon realized that without traffic, you're nothing. Starting a live stream got her no viewers, let alone anything else.

Hu Jia had also joined in on the last incident, gaining quite a bit of traffic and afterwards, it was fine too, because all of Tang Fangjing's attention was on that Professor Chen.

On one hand, he hadn't noticed her, and on the other hand, Hu Jia was confident. She hadn't slandered or insulted anyone, nor had she infringed on any rights. Even Tang Fangjing couldn't possibly sue her.

So, if he couldn't sue, there was no problem. After all, he didn't know who she was. She could just argue online and block him if it came down to it.

But this time, her comments seemed a bit too much. Many people online were cursing her, but similarly, many supported her. Anyway, all publicity is good publicity!

When it comes to being an internet celebrity, the worst thing is not being famous.

About that case, Hu Jia had a friend working at Flying Law Firm who she'd talked to. He had said the case was a sure loss, with the contract there, clear as day.

So she wasn't worried at all. Last time you, Tang Fangjing, managed to adjust the sentence. What can you do this time? It's a civil case; if you're supposed to pay, then you have to pay!

The only lesson humanity learns from history is that it never learns from history.

Before, Ju Haiqing thought, as a person, anyone with a bit of brains should know that someone like Tang Fangjing could take one sentence and face you in person for a showdown.

There's a warning from the past, with Professor Chen's apology still echoing in his ears. He'd been ambushed at a lecture, faced an outright confrontation. All online users had seen it.

And yet, here was another jumping out, and as soon as they opened their mouth, it was about some other lawyer doing this or that...

Ju Haiqing was really curious. How many times did Lawyer Tang need to slap their faces before they would admit defeat? Weren't all the cases taken up by Lawyer Tang considered impossible by other lawyers?

Forget it, Ju Haiqing didn't want to think about it anymore. As a supreme keyboard warrior, he was never weaker than anyone online!

"Rem is my wife": I'm really baffled. You're just simply discarding the act of saving someone and there's nothing else to talk about? Who thinks about those things when saving lives?

"Indeed, a filthy heart sees everything as dirty. Only someone as low as you could say such things!"

Ju Haiqing kept on replying, but suddenly froze because a notification appeared on the screen: he had been blocked by the other party and couldn't reply.

This tipped Ju right off the edge. Fucking hell, block me because you can't win the argument? What the hell!

Sometimes it could be infuriating: imagine someone spouting nonsense, and you, unable to help it, decide to argue with them.

And what happens? You spend all this effort typing a long response, only to find the other person has blocked you. How would you feel?

Especially after being blocked, you have no reply, making it seem as though you were convinced by them because there's no follow-up from you.

Exasperated, Ju Haiqing smashed the keyboard, then calmed down only to realize, damn, I haven't updated today. But what now? There's no keyboard. Just thinking about it made him even angrier... At Guangming District Court, Old Tang was waiting to see the judge, preparing to issue an investigation order to look into that company's situation.

The main thing was to see if the opposing party had the qualifications for lending. If not, things would be easier to handle.

Just then, his phone rang. It was Ju Haiqing. Old Tang hurriedly picked it up; to him, Ju was a significant benefactor.

"Hello, what's up, Ju the great writer? Did you have a property fail to complete on time, or did you run into a lunatic?" Old Tang laughed.

On the other end, Ju Haiqing replied, "Don't joke, Lawyer Tang. I'm calling about something concerning you. Have you seen the news online?"

Old Tang asked curiously, "What about it, someone dares to talk nonsense again?" Find adventures at empire

"Yeah, you should check it out quickly. I argued with them for a bit, and they just blocked me. What the hell is that!"

Old Tang hung up the phone and went online to look at the comments.

What's going on, now there are problems with saving people?

But what puzzled him even more was that right after he had forced Professor Chen into permanent internet retirement, someone was blurting out nonsense again?

This dissonance gave Old Tang an almost delusional feeling, wondering whether he was crazy, or the world had gone mad?

He felt like rebutting, but after some thought, Old Tang gave up. Arguing now was pointless because he had not yet found an angle in the case.

He could argue now, but the louder the rebuttal, the louder the mockery from the other side if the lawsuit were lost.

So, in the end, even on the internet, it's about showing real strength. Old Tang was very clear about his self-perception; he couldn't afford to lose. One loss might mean being trampled down.
