What Comes Around Goes Around - Chapter 93

The verdict was pending, and Wu Jie was naturally dissatisfied. She entangled with Cheng Yao for a while, asked Cheng Yao for the money for a taxi ride, and mopped up some gas. Only after Cheng Yao’s low posture to comfort and promise, she cursed and reluctantly left. .

Cheng Yao, who was finally clean, breathed a sigh of relief, sitting in the lobby of the court and staring blankly at the people entering and leaving the door. The work intensity is not the most recent, but Cheng Yao feels tired inexplicably, especially tired.

“Cheng Yao?”

Just as Cheng Yao was distracted, a male voice stopped her.

Cheng Yao turned her head and froze for a moment before remembering that the one who stopped her was Li Chengxuan from the BRICS Law Firm, whom Bao Rui had met at a party before.

Li Chengxuan is a refreshing temper. He didn’t care if Cheng Yao didn’t recognize him for a while. He enthusiastically said, “Are you here to hold court?” He glanced at Cheng Yao, “Look at you with such a bad expression. Are you still working under Qian Heng?”

“Hey, Qian Heng is never soft on young people.” Li Chengxuan obviously took the opportunity to dig Qian Heng’s corner, “Xiao Cheng, what I said to you last time is still valid, you want I can’t stand Qian Heng anymore. You can consider me here. Although our BRICS generates less revenue than Junheng, our partners are definitely more approachable than Qian Heng! Do you still keep the business card I gave you before?”

Cheng Yao just smiled: “Keep it.”

Li Chengxuan took Cheng Yao to spit out Qian Heng for a while, because he had to leave the court in a hurry.

Cheng Yao smiled and didn’t take it seriously. At this moment, she was thinking about other things, about her future, about work, about feelings, about the pending outcome of Wu Jie’s case.

——

Fortunately, the big rock in Cheng Yao’s heart didn’t last long. Three days later, Wu Jie’s case ushered in the verdict.

The 100,000 yuan loan before marriage was admitted!

As Cheng Yao expected, although the original is preferred in the proof, the photocopy can only be used as corroborating evidence. In the absence of other evidence, the photocopy cannot be used alone as the basis for determining the facts of the case, but once the evidence chain is formed , The original is lost, and the photocopy can also be used as the key to fact finding.

In Wu Jie’s case, without knowing that the original IOU was lost, her husband admitted that the loan, coupled with the bank transfer flow at the time, could presumably exist. Although Wu Jie’s husband and lawyer tried their best to deny the loan after knowing that the original was lost, they could not provide evidence to support their claims, so they were ultimately not accepted by the court.

After the balance, Wu Jie’s ex-husband also decided not to appeal. After the time expires, the first-instance judgment will take effect and the case will be settled.

After getting the verdict, Cheng Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was an unprofessional thing like losing the original, but fortunately, in the final result, she also gave an explanation to Wu Jie.

Wu Jie is obviously still dissatisfied: “Xiaocheng, you have to ask me to pay the lawyer’s fees this time when you made such a mistake. Isn’t it unreasonable? Lost all my IOUs. Is it over?” Wu Jie hinted, “I can’t get rid of it all, at least give me a discount? What’s more, I was shocked. The original handed to you was lost. You have to give me spiritual compensation, right? ”

“It’s my fault to lose the original. But Aunt Wu, according to the Lawyers Law, only if the lawyer causes losses to the client due to his fault, will he be liable for compensation. I did not let the loss of the original affect the outcome of this case. It did not cause any loss to you. I am very self-blame for losing the original, but my work for this case is not only to help you get a piece of pre-marital property, but also to fight for the division of property after marriage, and I also spent a lot of time. Although I am your attorney, but you signed the contract with our law firm, and our law firm has never waived the attorney fee for this. For my unprofessional behavior of losing the original, if you want to complain to the law firm, I am also willing to accept criticism and punishment from the Lawyers Association.”

Because of her own mistake, Cheng Yao was very patient and low-profile. Wu Jie became angry when he saw that the bargain was not successful, and started to attack Cheng Yao. Cheng Yao accepted this with a good temper and continued to speak. apologize.

When she hung up the phone, Cheng Yao thought that Wu Jie’s affairs had come to an end. She didn’t expect that Wu Jie would not only compare the baht, but also vowed not to stop in order to take advantage of it.

——

Wu Jie came in the afternoon. Cheng Yao was receiving clients in the office when she heard a commotion in the large office area.

“Call your boss out! You Jun Heng claims to be professionals who do professional affairs, but the result? What did your lawyers do as a jerk? Lost all my original IOUs, and made this kind of trouble, and even paid back You have the face to ask me to charge a lot of lawyer fees?” Wu Jie took out the appearance of a shrew, scornfully and scornfully, “If this matter is not solved for me, I will pull down the banner at your building tomorrow! ”

Probably someone persuaded Wu Jie, but to no avail, Wu Jie’s voice was even raised an octave: “Who are you? What qualifications do you have to talk to me? What’s the misunderstanding? Ha, tell your Cheng Yao to come out! You ask her face to face, is it a misunderstanding? Did she lose my original?!”

When things had progressed to this point, Cheng Yao had nowhere to go. She had to press her lips tightly and walk out in the meeting room’s surprised eyes.

When Wu Jie saw Cheng Yao, her arrogance became even more arrogant, and her acting skills became even more ostentatious: “Does your law firm think that I am not the kind of big client with hundreds of millions in my family, so I neglect me and give me this kind of lawyer? “She pointed to Cheng Yao, “What other advantages does she have besides having a beautiful face? You don’t even have a head when doing things. A law firm you are so famous, is it just a lawyer who recruits people on the face? The team? Go backstage?” Wu Jie viciously attacked indiscriminately, “Or is your law firm all of this kind of stuff?”

…

She scolded something else, but she had to say that a woman like Wu Jie attacked people, like a snake and three inches.

Originally, because of Cheng Yao and Qian Heng’s love, Li Mengzhi and his like had some opinions on Cheng Yao, but now the original evidence of the client has been lost in handling the case. This low-level but unbearable mistake made Wu Jie the client’s trouble. Everyone’s suppressed emotions and gossip are beginning to emerge again.

Cheng Yao’s face was hot, feeling the gaze of probing from all directions, Li Meng’s contemptuous gaze, and the indignant and elated look of the intern who was still reprimanded by Liang that day.

Cheng Yao only felt that she was extremely vulnerable at this moment and needed Qian Heng extremely. However, he is not around, he and Bao Rui are still in Los Angeles, and even Tan Ying, who usually defends himself everywhere, went out in court because of something.

In a large office area, even though Wang Lu and the others are trying to persuade Wu Jie, Cheng Yao only feels elusive loneliness in the eyes of the rest of the inquiries.

Faced with such a scene, what else can she defend? Didn’t you lose the excuse IOU? But the IOU was indeed lost.

There are tribulations, roughly so.

In the current scene, I am afraid that everyone is convinced that not only is he incapable, but he is more than defeated, and it has reduced Jun Heng’s reputation.

Cheng Yao was sour in her heart, enduring embarrassment, and said: “Aunt Wu, I didn’t manage this matter. Let’s go to the meeting room if we have anything to communicate with…”

“Who is your aunt?” Wu Jie was emotional. She had been arguing for a long time, and there was no boss-level person to come out. Wu Jie felt a little irritated. Looking at Cheng Yao in front of her, she became even more annoyed. It is clear that Cheng Yao has no authority to reduce or exempt her lawyer’s fees, so she has to go to the boss’s level.

“I can……”

Before Cheng Yao finished speaking, she was thrown something hot on her face when she was unprepared. When she reacted, she realized that it was Wu Jie who picked up tea from the desk beside her.

Because of her height, Wu Jie’s tea could not be splashed on Cheng Yao’s face, but only on her chest, but it was not splashed on her face, and it did not alleviate Cheng Yao’s embarrassment and embarrassment at all. Being so scolded and treated rudely in front of so many colleagues in the large office area, even the thick-skinned people may be saddened by the level of self-esteem.

“Come on, Cheng Yao, wipe it quickly.” A group of people hurriedly pulled Wu Jie away, and Wang Lu handed Cheng Yao a tissue.

At this moment, the closed office door finally opened, and Liang still walked over as if he didn’t know what was happening.

“What’s the matter?” With an unidentified expression on her face, she lowered her voice, “I was just in a conference call and heard something happening here. What’s the matter?” She gave Cheng Yao a surprised look and immediately raised her. He said, “Who made Cheng Yao this way? Do you not know if you have a customer who makes trouble?”

Cheng Yao didn’t buy Liang’s rhetoric of the conference call. The false expression on her face was apparently deliberately sitting in the office waiting for the situation to develop out of control. However, she did so well. At this moment, it seems, She is completely like a short-term boss, strong and majestic.

“We Junheng is not a vegetable market. We can achieve our goal by splattering and rolling. Legal services are professional services. You can also bargain instead of buying green onions. If you have opinions about our services and don’t want to pay legal fees, then please go to sue. . But if you want to maliciously relinquish the account, you are going to be in front of the experts. Whoever does not pay our legal fees, we will sue to the end.”

Liang still said something, Wu Jie really stopped, but she naturally wouldn’t give up.

“Then ask your employees, did you lose all my original evidence?! Can’t I question her working attitude? Shouldn’t you give me a claim?”

…

Like a competent and fair boss, Liang asked Wu Jie many questions, and once again let everyone hear the story of Cheng Yao losing the original IOU.

“Attorney Cheng won the lawsuit and did not cause any loss to you. We should not have to make any compensation or refund any attorney fees. But losing the original is indeed our problem, but it is not Cheng Yao’s fault. “Liang still righteously said, “This should be my problem, because Cheng Yao is the lawyer under my guidance. Although she handles this case throughout, I should have been in charge of the overall situation. The instructor can’t shirk the blame. What’s more, the loss of the original document also shows that Junheng has flaws in the internal process of client evidence management. So in order to express our apologies for not being professional enough, I will be responsible for your attorney fees. I will return it to you at my own expense.”

Upon hearing that the lawyer’s fee can be waived, Wu Jie’s emotions really eased: “Although your lawyers are not decent, I think you are quite competent and reasonable.” She glanced at Cheng Yao, “So ah Some young people are really not good, Jiang is still hot, look at your boss, how reasonable your speech and how prudent you are, how is it like you, even the evidence is lost, and the money is still stubbornly unwilling. Retreat, the business ability is in a mess, but when I ask for money, I am very shrewd…”

Wu Jieqi was victorious, with a smile on her face, but her mouth was not forgiving, and she murmured to Cheng Yao for a while, and then followed another assistant lawyer who was instructed by Liang Ye to process the attorney fee refund. Up.

Liang still said that he not only maintained Cheng Yao’s face, but also had a sense of the overall situation, and resolved the dispute at the expense of himself. Cheng Yao almost didn’t need to think about it, and knew that everyone in her place would have a higher evaluation of Liang Still, and accordingly, his evaluation would only go from bad to worse.

Falling in love with Qian Heng, following Qian Hengshi’s case is great, and his ability to handle cases is also excellent, but when he changes the team and the new boss, either he didn’t even have a case before, or even a small case like Wu Jie couldn’t handle it. Even the original evidence was lost, and eventually the parties involved made trouble…

Each of these details may not be enough to make people imagine, but when added together, they pieced together another scene-unable to achieve good results by holding a golden thigh. Once you leave your thigh, you can instantly Was beaten back to its original form.

“Cheng Yao, wipe the tea and come to my office.”

Liang still speaks mildly, but Cheng Yao knows that what he will face will not be gentle and drizzle.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the office, Liang still put away the softness. She glanced at Cheng Yao: “I know you and Qian Heng are in a passionate period. He has not been there recently. You may not be in good condition, but I hope You separate love from work, don’t let your personal emotions affect your work.” Liang still sounded very strong and earnest, “Girls, although love is very important, once you become a love brain, it will not be good for your future. …”

Cheng Yao endured anger and embarrassment: “I haven’t been distracted from work because of love.” She said every word, “I don’t think that Wu Jie’s case should be exempted from attorney fees if things are settled. We are lawyers, and we are careful. It is the contract, the law, and the principles. You should not evade the parties for fear of trouble. Besides, I have a clear conscience in handling this case, and the result of the lawsuit has also won her the best interest. Now you are directly refunding her attorney fees instead of sitting Actually, I didn’t manage this case properly.”

Liang still took a sip of tea: “But you lost the original IOU and you are the person responsible. I don’t want Wu Jie to be in the law firm all the time, which will affect your reputation and the work of colleagues in the office. What’s more It’s going to make a big mess. According to the punishment system, you, as the responsible person, will be punished.”

Cheng Yao greeted Liang still’s eyes: “I did something wrong and I am willing to bear the corresponding consequences, but I did not do the wrong part, and I don’t want to be confessed. The matter of throwing the IOU is completely inexplicable. Punishment, let’s check this together.”

In the face of Cheng Yao’s aggressiveness, Liang still concealed his needle: “You said that the IOU was lost inexplicably, but Chengyao, we are lawyers. Lawyers speak of evidence, otherwise they will shirk responsibility.”

Cheng Yao had vague doubts in her heart, but just to put it aside, there was no evidence, everything was useless. Jun Heng only has a probe at the door of the law firm to monitor people coming and going to the law firm, but not in the office area. For her, the current dilemma is still unsolvable. She bit her lip tightly and did not speak.

Liang still’s tone is a bit more serious: “I know that you and Qian Heng are in love, but you should still calm down and distinguish between your girlfriends and employees. Don’t think you can mess around with money and Heng. Heng, first of all, you are our employee, and you still have to be serious about your work.” Liang still said here, and gave Cheng Yao a lightly glance, “Girls, you should better be yourself and work on your career instead of always thinking about getting married. ”

These words were obviously mocking herself, Cheng Yao bit her lips tightly and clenched her fists.

“Cheng Yao, how old are you? I have a piece of advice for you. A good man will never want to marry a woman who is not good enough.”

How could Cheng Yao not understand this kind of meaning, Liang still has a tone like a confidant big sister, she has to be heard by a third person who doesn’t know what she said, and she only feels that she is sincere and can give advice to the younger generation without reservation. , But Cheng Yao knew it was not.

Liang still sees narrowing and ridicule in his eyes, and has reached the point of undisguised. She clicked so far, but some words almost blurted out——

Think Qian Heng will marry you? Dream it.

At this moment, Cheng Yao’s humiliation, embarrassment, embarrassment and aggrievedness had almost reached its climax. The disagreement between Qian Heng and Qian Heng about marriage was finally clarified by Liang still mercilessly and threw it in front of Cheng Yao like an insult, making her unable to escape.

If Qian Heng insists not to marry DINK, can he continue to stay in Jun Heng and talk about love with him for a lifetime? One year or two years is fine, what about seven years and eight years? Ten years and twenty years?

The cynicism of others secretly does not say, can I really accommodate him and suppress my true heart not to marry or have children?

Originally Cheng Yao thought she could, but one day ago, Lin Fengjuan took Hanhan who had a successful operation to thank herself. When she held Hanhan, she looked at the soft and cute baby in her hand, but Cheng Yao knew she could not lie to herself.

She likes children.

like very much.

Even if she hasn’t thought about it now, one day in the future, she still wants a child of her own, a fleshy ball with bright eyes and fat little hands.

She also wants a stable and warm marriage.

On this point, she and Qian Heng are completely different.
