Chapter 147: Remember, Leave Pregnancy Out of This!_3
"I've lost, but there's no way I'm giving up halfway, I'm going to fight her to the end!"
She, Peng Wanrong, a woman who started from scratch, built her business to where it is now, and has long been financially independent. Now it's just a matter of pride.
Joined the company in July, got pregnant immediately after starting, which is fine, really. We're all women, and pregnancy and childbirth are inevitable.
So I did what I could to accommodate her at work. Her position as HR manager didn't require any physical labor, but she still needed to take leave.
However, in the twenty-five days of July, she had already taken more than ten days of sick leave!
Why couldn't she hold on in August? Because she only came to work for six days the entire month!
Sometimes she claimed the nausea was too severe to bear, other times she said her health was poor and needed rest. The most she took off was ten days in a row, which the company approved.
And then, she just submitted a request for two weeks of recovery...
While speaking, Peng Wanrong rose and moved to the window: "And we even have people like Tang Fangjing with us. He doesn't care about his own reputation, so what are we afraid of."
After that, she pulled out her phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Lawyer Tang? This is Peng Wanrong. Let's continue with the case; there are no issues on my end."
No matter the magnitude of the event, time still continues to flow, and soon only three days were left until the trial.
Amid the eager discussion of netizens, the Bright District labor inspection department issued a notice: Phoenix Company illegally dismissed a pregnant woman, refused to make corrections despite orders, and was warned and fined twenty thousand yuan!
With the news released, netizens became even more excited. See that? The labor inspection department has made a determination. It's an illegal dismissal. What do you have to say for yourself now, Tang Fangjing!
Some brazen netizens even called Tengda, suggesting Tengda to take some action.
Old Tang's clout was no longer influential; too many people were mentioning him.
In such an atmosphere, in Jingzhou City, at Old Tang's former employer, Bluebird Company, Hu Shuwei saw the online news and almost threw his phone in excitement!
It's been three years, three years they had been mocked!
Ever since Tang Fangjing filed a lawsuit for overtime payment, and many from the operating department resigned and sued, although the company survived, it was never the same.
Moreover, as Tang Fangjing's fame grew, Bluebird Company had become a complete laughingstock. Whenever someone wanted to know about Tang Fangjing's past, netizens would say: "Well, it all started with a company called Bluebird..."
According to everyone, if it hadn't been for the excessive exploitation by Bluebird Company, there wouldn't be a Tang Fangjing today, and in such an atmosphere, Bluebird Company was scorned for three years.
Hu Shuwei waited three years, and now he finally saw a glimmer of hope!
What self-sacrificing nonsense, isn't it all for money? Damn it, when the court enforcement officers came knocking, claiming that the other party was in late-stage cancer, barely hanging on, urging him to pay quickly. Otherwise, if the other party dropped dead, it wouldn't look good for anyone.
He was truly frightened back then, afraid that Tang Fangjing would suddenly drop dead, so he hurriedly complied and paid those exorbitant overtime fees. Damn it, it's been three years and that bastard is still alive and kicking. President Hu truly feels screwed over.
Now, finally, Tang Fangjing is on the verge of collapse. In his excitement, President Hu posted a message online using his own account: "It's been three years. Now everyone sees this Tang person clearly, don't they?"
However, at Dafeng Law Firm, despite the ridicule from the entire internet, Old Han remained unmoved.
Are you kidding me? Once you've fallen into a pit, that's enough; don't expect me to be fooled again. Being a performance lawyer isn't too bad. Look at this case, the trial hasn't even started yet, and I'm already making a good profit.
I just hope Tang Fangjing pulls more of these stunts. It would be better if he could get all those rich people locked up. Then, I would be even happier...
As for making money, well, it's not embarrassing.
In the Tengda office, this time Old Wang and Old Song came. The situation was really serious, and they couldn't sit still anymore.
Unlike before, although there was a guarantee contract, it clearly looked like a loss for Mr. Wang. Plus, saving someone came first, so even if they lost the lawsuit due to people stirring things up, it would be okay.
But this time it was different, it was a labor dispute, and it involved a pregnant woman, which touches on too many sensitive topics.
"Well, Director Tang, I'm calling you director, is that okay? Aren't you going to say something? The internet is already painting Tengda as the lackey of capitalists, won't you make a statement?" Old Wang said helplessly.
Old Song hesitated before speaking, "Old Tang, how confident are you, really? They say public opinion shouldn't influence justice, they say the judiciary is independent, but we all know what's really going on."
"Maybe you should just release a video..."
Tang Fangjing, who had been sitting on the massage chair, finally stood up: "Alright, alright, I'll post it, okay?"
After some thought, Old Tang posted his own update.
Old Wang immediately checked it and was stunned. Damn, I asked you to post something, and this is what you give me?
The update he posted was: @Public Trial Web, hey little court, can this case be live-streamed? I think it can."
Old Song also shook his head; he should have known, Tang Fangjing has always been like this, preferring a straightforward approach over any indirect methods, expecting him to bow down is only possible if he's dead...
Sure enough, after the post went live, the netizens were shocked. This person, this person must be crazy...
In response to Old Tang's mention, the Public Trial Web quickly gave a response: It can be broadcasted!
