Chapter 17.3 “Your new assistant? Has she passed the judicial examination?”

The case has now become a source of trouble for Du Xinyi. She regrettably thought, if she had known that there would be such a turn of events, she would not have begged Lin Hui to involve her in this case at all. Those 189 dismissals were all new employees, and the total financial compensation involved was not much, so she won’t be able to allocate a few money to herself. Now Song Lianjun was also obviously very bothersome….

Du Xinyi previously not only promised the results of the case, but also received a total of 4,000 yuan worth of shopping cards from Song Lianjun. The cards were accepted by her all privately, and it was even used up in the past few days. If Song Lianjun fished out of her net anyhow, all these things would land her in big trouble . . . . .

At this time, Du Xinyi didn’t care about Song Lianjun’s predicament at all. She just thought about how to clean herself up out of this. She glanced at Song Lianjun and pretended to be regretful, “Actually, I have always wanted to help you, but because I am not the main lawyer, it is difficult for me to intervene in many strategic plans. I understand your situation, especially when you sent me shopping cards before. I appreciate all your intentions. When lawyer Bai became the host lawyer, I specially conveyed all your intentions to her. I didn’t even keep the shopping cards with myself in hope that she will do her best to handle your case.”

Song Lianjun listened while his face slowly took on a bit of murderous anger, “But this lawyer Bai ……”

As an employee lawyer, Bai Duanduan had no way to regulate Ji Lin’s behavior. He made a move and she parried. But in the face of such a chickenshit method of suspending work and production which was totally within the scope of existing laws, neither Bai Duanduan nor anyone else could reverse the situation. 

Du Xinyi, however, did not mention this, but tried to shirk the responsibility of her own random promises, and she muttered softly, as if carefully, “There is one thing I will tell you secretly ah, in fact, our lawyer Bai seems to be that …… in private with lawyer Ji.”

Song Lianjun frowned, “What’s that?”

Du Xinyi lowered her voice and said, “It’s a lover. The last time I was having a meal with Lawyer Bai, I also met Lawyer Ji there. I heard Lawyer Ji call our lawyer Bai as his wife. I thought Lawyer Bai was single, but they fell in love without any of us knowing.”

He almost took Simon Paper’s plan with a heavy heart and went to discuss it with the remaining 110 brothers, and the result was naturally predictable.

Everyone exploded.

“Lao Song, didn’t you say that we can definitely win more than 100,000 yuan?! Why is the money completely gone now?”

“Why can 189 young people have compensation, but we don’t have it?”

“Lao Song, it was because we trusted you that we entrusted you with the full authority of the matter, and how did you end up negotiating this outcome?”

Once the seeds of doubt and suspicion were planted, discontent would start to flood in.

Soon, someone else joined in the accusations, “Yes, Lao Song, you probably did not pay enough attention to this case because you just had your second child and you’re too busy to take care of our case, right?”

“That’s right, I think you have not kept an eye on the lawyers at all! You didn’t represent us well at all!”

“If only you hadn’t been elected as a staff representative in the first place, it might as well have been me with a better outcome!”

“Lao Song, tell us the truth, are you under the same plan as us or did you take money from the company privately and then come to act as a peacemaker to persuade us to accept the proposal?”

“Most likely, otherwise, how could it suddenly go from being absolutely able to pay more than 100,000 to 200,000, to suddenly becoming the lowest average salary in the city every month?”

……..

As Song Lianjun watched everyone accusing and questioning him, he only felt that the repression in his heart was on the verge of exploding.

He was wronged! He had paid 4,000 yuan worth of shopping cards out of his own pocket to present as a gift to the lawyers, and had been communicating well with them in a friendly manner. For the benefit of the 300 colleagues, he paid out of his own pocket. Ran to the law firm regardless of whether it was hot or windy or rainy. He never asked anyone for a penny, not even asked for a word of gratitude. And now suddenly he had become a sinner who was accused by a thousand people because he had not gotten the desired result ……

Song Lianjun looked at his colleagues who were rushing around, and his heart was on fire. He remembered Bai Duanduan’s delicate face, and gritted teeth as hatred rose in his heart. 

It was all that female lawyer’s fault! It was all her fault!

And this anger and resentment, which was on the verge of exploding, reached its limit when he returned home.

Almost as soon as Song Lianjun walked into the house, his wife greeted him with tears. 

“Husband, our little daughter’s face suddenly turned pale and her lip turned blue today, so I took her to the hospital. Now it is found out in the test results that she has a congenital heart disease and requires a sum of money for surgery. How is your negotiation going? When will we get 200,000 yuan? We have to schedule the operation for the child quickly!”

Before one wave of problems could have subsided, another one has already risen, Song Lianjun’s sanity finally collapses.

Without another word, he changed into black clothes, grabbed his eldest son’s duck-tongue hat, went to the kitchen, grabbed a knife and walked out of the house silently.

Song Lianjun’s eyes were red with blood. He would never forgive that female lawyer who had received a fee from him but did not do the real work and also ate out of his pocket!

The Author has something to say:

I have asked the judge and my friends who do labor inspections and according to them, if the company has sufficient evidence to prove that it does have to shut down or stop production then they should obtain the consent of the trade union and file with the labor supervision department. Without the consent of the workers, you can use the kind of operation Partner Ji used ~

Of course, in practice, it is true that only very few companies will adopt this method, because most of the time the loss of shutdown is more than the direct financial compensation to employees. This legal provision is not a loophole~ as for why, the reasons will be discussed later~

Partner Ji is really professional like this. It has nothing to do with him being cold blooded. If I were him, I would do the same, because this is a job. The legal profession is inherently controversial, but I write legal articles in hope that everyone can look at and understand this profession in a peaceful and calm manner. If you think that what is unethical cannot be represented, then the legal profession and the law would die out completely. Not to mention the fact that morality itself is not moral. I have completely different understandings of situations from very different positions. I hope that when we all judge something, we can first ask ourselves if our morality is absolutely moral?

There will be follow-up to this case~ It is possible that after reading that, you will have a better understanding of the ethics from different positions, that’s it~

And, Du Xinyi has arranged a violent fight~

Old Dog Ji: Look at how good I am professionally

After falling in love: 

Old Dog Ji: Come and work for me, so that you don’t cause family conflicts.

Reader @ Jia Yu’s

Bai Duanduan: Ji Dog, live your life as a dog!

Prostrating Ji: As long as I do it more doggy-like, there’s no way for Duanduan’s 900-meter sword to stab me!

[Finally, you guys wait, I promise, Partner Ji is really cute! He’s the cute No.1 in my heart right now (super loud!!!)]
