What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Some timid netizens didn't dare to target Tang Fangjing so they could only wildly spew their anger at Phoenix Company, claiming online that they had found evidence of Phoenix Company's tax evasion.

After one shout, everyone went together to report to the tax authorities, and some said Phoenix Company had other regulatory issues, followed by reports to the market supervision authorities...

In short, because the incident involved Tang Fangjing, the whole internet turned into a mess.

Dare to sue, and you're challenging the authority of the netizens. You must be taken down, then trampled with ten thousand feet.

Amidst such an atmosphere, at his home in Jingzhou, Ju Haiqing once again transformed into a keyboard warrior.

"Rem my wife": I'm really curious how many lessons you guys need before you learn. I remember last time, the time before last, and even earlier, it seemed like you were adamant that Tang Fangjing would lose, but what happened?

"I just want to tell everyone one thing now, since Tang Fangjing started litigation, he's never lost!"

Ju Haiqing's comments also began to be shared by Old Tang's followers because, indeed, Tang Fangjing had never lost. So, why had you all decided he was definitely going to lose this time?

Some netizens grew scared, silently deleting their comments, choosing to be onlookers, waiting for the outcome before making remarks, while others felt nothing of it.

So what if you won before? This time you could lose.

Recognized as Tang Fangjing's number one die-hard fan, "I like doing color" brother surprisingly did not post any messages, making others unaware of the situation.

The uproar was still fermenting, with netizens not just reporting but also posting all their report screenshots online, becoming another trending search.

Finally, the Bright District tax authorities, as well as the Bright District market supervision authorities, also issued notices, stating that they had begun investigations into the issues reported by the netizens.

The online world was in uproar, but in reality, at Tengda Law Firm.

Old Tang was lying in a massage chair, left leg crossed over the right, hands behind his head, feet idly swinging, the picture of relaxation, short only of a background music.

This was the scene that greeted Wang Qingqing and Li Wanting when they pushed open the door to the office.

Wang Qingqing glanced at her phone, then at Tang Fangjing in front of her, and suddenly felt like there was no need to hurry.

Li Wanting couldn't help but say, "Tang bro, you've seen the news online, right?"

Old Tang, without even opening his eyes: "Of course I've seen it, what about it?"

"Well, everyone online is talking about this situation, and even the tax and market regulators have already..."

"It's probably more than just talk. I see netizens are saying I've betrayed the working class. Don't worry, it's a small matter."

As he spoke, Old Tang opened his eyes and sat up: "Don't be distracted by the noise online; those are secondary conflicts. We need to focus on the primary conflict, which is the case itself!"

"As long as we win, it doesn't matter what they say online."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qingqing said, "But how can we win? With such public opinion online..."

"Don't worry, I have a plan for the case. The key point now is not on our side, but whether Phoenix Company can hold out."

"By the way, Wan Ting, didn't you say that someone named Peng something slandered you? How did it go with the police report?"

The sudden shift in topic was jarring, but Li Wanting quickly responded: "I've reported it, but the police think there isn't enough evidence. Only Director Zhang is willing to testify for me while the arbitration committee person said they don't know anything."

"And trying to obtain more evidence was denied as well, so now it's at a stalemate."

"Then let's file a lawsuit, obtain an investigation order to check the surveillance ourselves, wait until we win the case then take the verdict to the police. If they still don't do anything, then let's take it to the judicial authorities... Never mind, I'll handle this for you, you don't need to worry about it."

It's go big or go home, but Li Wanting wasn't the type to stubbornly pursue matters to the end, so Old Tang decided he'd take care of it himself. After all, he had nothing else to do, no tasks, so why not do something beneficial for mental and physical health?

Slandering others, if not to the extent of a slander crime, can still be administratively punished. A few days in detention to clear one's head could be good.

Meanwhile, at Phoenix Company, Chairman Peng Wanrong hung up the phone and then closed her eyes, exhaustion evident on her face.

The situation had escalated too quickly, too swiftly for her to catch up. The labor inspection had already entered the company to start their investigation, which really didn't have much to investigate; the situation was quite clear.

People were hinting that she should just follow the labor arbitration verdict, not to make a fuss anymore, as continuing the dispute would look bad for everyone.

Then the news came that the company had filed a lawsuit, and the response was straightforward: wait to be penalized.

The labor inspection penalty was one thing, but now that both tax authorities and market supervision had intervened, the situation was truly becoming unbearable.

At that moment, a knock sounded on the office door.

"Come in!" Peng Wanrong said, mustering her energy.

Director Zhang entered, worry etched on his face: "Chairman Peng, with the current situation, and nearly everyone criticizing us online, do you think we should..."

"Suck it up, right? Just let her come back to work obediently? And then continue to take leaves?" Peng Wanrong looked at Director Zhang, her expression serious.

"We have no choice, with the public opinion online being so severe, it's not certain that the court will support us, just relying on Tang Fangjing..." Director Zhang hesitated.

"No choice?" Peng Wanrong laughed: "Although I'm in business, I too can be stubborn. I think her behavior is problematic. So, in that case, why not go all out!"
