Second Marriage and Pregnancy: CEO?
Chapter 258 Provoking Discord
"Yes, I will accept this commission. If I win, it will be my turnaround. If I lose, at worst, I will leave Xingyuan and open my own office, or I will simply raise it at home and become my rich wife. "I pretended to be relaxed and smiled.
Lawyer Jin saw that I had made a decision, so he had no choice but to say: "Since you have made a decision, I will not stop you, but you are the company's lawyer after all, if you need help, just ask, if you can, I will help you."
"Thank you, senior, but you'd better not get involved in this matter, let me handle it myself, lest Long Teng take advantage of the problem to deal with Xing Yuan again." I said gratefully.
After deciding to accept this commission, I immediately called Pei Li to tell him.
"You mean, you want to reduce Lu Xialan's sentence and help her escape." Pei Li asked.
I responded, looked at the information in my hand and said: "Murder in self-defense is legally exempt from punishment. If it can be proved that Lu Xialan accidentally killed that person out of self-protection, then even if Lu Xialan was exonerated in court no problem."
"Do you know that they got you kidnapped and almost killed because of Lu Xialan before? Do you know what you are doing? For the so-called loyalty, do you really ignore yourself? Before You still take this job so seriously, you don't even have time to accompany me and my children, and now you are willing to destroy your future for Lu Xialan, it seems that the status of me, Xuanxuan, and Mu Qin in your heart is really not important." Pei Li's voice dropped.
My heart tightened, and I quickly said: "Why are you unimportant? I'm not neglecting you, I really like this job, so I want to work hard, but Lu Xialan is already miserable now, this matter It's her manslaughter again, we clearly know that Long Teng is using Lu Xialan's matter to pave the way for himself this time, they will definitely take the opportunity to make things worse for Lu Xialan, at this time, as a lawyer, of course I can't just sit idly by."
I can still vividly remember the harm Lu Xialan did to us. If she killed someone intentionally today, no matter how much Lu Xingyi begged me, I would not help.
But now that I know that Lu Xialan is innocent in this matter, and she is Lu Xingyi's biological sister, when Lu Xingyi is in trouble, as a good friend, I can't just sit idly by.
Lu Xingyi has helped me a lot in the past, even though I used him to investigate the truth, causing a rift between him and Jiang Xiaobei, and he never blamed me for not being able to be together for so many years, this time, of course I Do your best to help him.
"Well, if this is what you want to do, of course I will support you. At worst, you will be squeezed out by the entire legal and political circles, and you will come back to be a little daughter-in-law." Pei Li said sinisterly over there.
"Is there someone who curses people that much? Although I know it, probably my fate is indeed like this, because the opponent is very powerful, and I am not sure of winning." Thinking that Zhong Qing is standing on the opposite side of me, many veteran lawyers avoid it. She is a rookie, I am so overconfident and dare to compete with her to win or lose. It is still difficult to think about it under the premise that she has the upper hand.
"Pei Li, if I really lose, then I will be a housewife honestly. The opponent is Zhong Qing, a talent dug from abroad by Longteng Office at a high price. She is a very powerful woman. I went to interview at the beginning. At that time, it was she who looked down on me as a former housewife, and I came to Xingyuan." I muttered, "I heard that she is very good abroad, and she handles every case beautifully. In several cases that were impossible to win, she turned defeat into victory and won very honorably. I am really under a lot of pressure to be an opponent with such a person."
"Zhong Qing, lawyer?" Pei Li repeated in a low voice.
"Yeah, the name sounds very quiet, but the person is really tough." I said.
There was no sound for a long time.
"Are you busy?" I asked involuntarily.
After a long time, Pei Licai said: "I just dealt with an urgent document, and it's fine. Don't worry, since you want to file a lawsuit, you should do your best to prepare. It's not all about punching the teacher to death. It's impossible for her to finish it." If you can win a case, why can't you?"
From the time I decided to take this case, I was ready to be thrown cold water by everyone. I didn't expect that Pei Li would actually encourage me and believe that I could turn defeat into victory.
My eye circles turned red all of a sudden, and I said in a hoarse voice: "Thank you, husband, thank you for believing in me. In fact, before I called you, I didn't even believe in myself. Fortunately, you still support me." , I can't believe it, if even you make me retreat, how can I persevere."
"Fool, why are you wronged? I support you in whatever you do, and I believe you can do it." Pei Li said gently, "I'll pick you up for dinner later, and I just want you to discuss with Lu Xingyi how to collect evidence."
"Okay." I nodded.
At noon, Pei Li drove to pick me up. Lin Ling came out before me. Seeing that Pei Li was here, she immediately went forward with a smile on her face and said, "Mr. Pei, why are you free today?"
"I'll pick you up." Pei Li said flatly.
Lin Ling said in a low voice: "Mr. Pei, are you waiting for Ms. Qin? Let me tell you, she's going to have a big problem. You seem to be a businessman. You'd better keep a distance from her and don't be influenced by her."
Pei Li raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "What does Miss Lin mean by that?"
Seeing that Pei Li took the initiative to respond to her, Lin Ling was secretly delighted, and quickly said, "You don't know, right? The victim has entrusted Zhong Qingzhong, a lawyer who is currently in the limelight, to murder the daughter of the Lu family who has caused a lot of trouble recently. Come to the lawsuit, Lu's defeat this time is set, anyone with a discerning eye can see that getting involved in Lu's right and wrong is killing himself, but Qin Yan really loves money too much, I heard that Lu's legal fees Very tall, she agreed without any hesitation, without considering the consequences at all, such a money-hungry and life-or-death woman..."
"It seems that Lawyer Lin has doubts about my way of handling things. I thought that since Lawyer Lin knew the difficulty, he would silently hide behind his back. I didn't expect Lawyer Lin to be cowardly on the surface, but he was quite courageous in his heart." Standing behind Lin Ling, he said coldly.
Lin Ling was taken aback, then turned around and looked at me in surprise, "Why are you still here?"
"Otherwise where do you think I would be?" I raised my eyebrows slightly.
Now it's off-duty time. I work honestly in the office on weekdays. I never arrive late or leave early. Isn't it normal to be here at this time?
Lin Ling suddenly gained confidence, and sneered, "You keep saying that you want to uphold justice, but even the lowest-level lawyers should run around looking for evidence after taking a big case, but you have been staying in the office all the time." , didn't care at all, it seems that the so-called justice is just what you said."
It seems that if people want to discredit others, they can bring up any reason.
Now I have an appointment with Lu Xingyi to talk about things, I don't want to waste any more time on her, so I went up to hold Pei Li and left.
"Do you need my help?" Pei Li asked me as he fastened the seat belt on me.
I shook my head, "No, I don't want to pay attention to these intrigues between offices. There are more important things to do right now, so don't worry about her."
I made an appointment with Lu Xingyi to meet at the tea house, which is relatively hidden and convenient for us to discuss.
"The monitoring angle is wrong, so the picture is not very clear, but the picture of Xia Lan stabbing someone with a knife has been filmed, even if it is used as evidence, it is not good for Xia Lan." Lu Xingyi secretly copied the surveillance video Sent it to me, and said helplessly.
Here I slow down and watch frame by frame.
At that time, Lu Xialan didn't seem to be in a good mood, so she was drinking at the bar alone, but that person came over and watched Lu Xialan carefully several times, and after confirming Lu Xialan's identity, she went over to strike up a conversation, but Lu Xialan turned around The man stood up and was about to leave with his hands. The man pulled Lu Xialan to prevent her from leaving. This violent action attracted the attention of others. Lu Xialan picked up the fruit knife next to him and stabbed at the man. She even poked several times. knife, then collapsed and sat on the ground, and the people next to him rushed to call the police.
"If you want to prove that that person has the tendency to hurt Lu Xialan, you must prove that he was one of the kidnappers who kidnapped you, so that Lu Xialan's reason for self-defense makes sense." I said.
Lu Xingyi sighed, "In the case where you were kidnapped, because the person was rescued, the two people who were arrested didn't let go. They have already been sentenced, and they will never change their words. There is no way to prove his identity."
That's right, after they come out, they may still hang out on this road. If they get the reputation of traitors, they may have no way to survive in the future, so they will not let go no matter what.
"I'll take care of this matter." Pei Li said calmly on the side, "I have a way to make them let go."
I looked at him suspiciously, "What are you going to do?"
"Just leave it to me. Don't forget, I was able to get Wang Bin in." Pei Li bent his lips and sneered, "It's easy for a person to be caught by others."
I blinked my eyes, Pei Li looks so dark at this moment, but I still like it very much.
"What's more, the current public opinion is very unfavorable to Lu Xialan. I have to collect a lot of evidence in Lu Xialan's favor, such as her donation, the good deeds she has done, and the fact that she was threatened at the beginning. Lu Xialan still has evidence for these things. Right." I asked.
"She didn't bring her mobile phone when she went out that day. The mobile phone is still in her room. I'll take you to get it." Lu Xingyi said quickly.
I nodded.
Pei Li was going to drive me off. I was worried that Xuan Xuan and Mu Qin would be scared at home, so I urged Pei Li to go back to accompany the children first. I don't want Xuan Xuan and Mu Qin to know about this, because if they know the person I want to help , is the person who once wanted to kidnap and hurt them, and he will definitely not agree.
Lawyer Jin saw that I had made a decision, so he had no choice but to say: "Since you have made a decision, I will not stop you, but you are the company's lawyer after all, if you need help, just ask, if you can, I will help you."
"Thank you, senior, but you'd better not get involved in this matter, let me handle it myself, lest Long Teng take advantage of the problem to deal with Xing Yuan again." I said gratefully.
