Boss Jiang is an extraordinary person with a broad mind, but Wu Yufei and the others certainly cannot be compared with him. They had no appetite, so they politely refused.

Walking out of the court, I discovered another interesting scene at the door.

At some point, a large number of news media arrived and surrounded the poor couple to interview them.

In this era, public opinion seems to have become a more effective weapon than the law.

"The couple has been crying to the media for a while, twisting the facts, avoiding the main issues, and confusing right and wrong. However, these media outlets, in order to gain traffic, do not care about the truth of the incident at all, but only fan the flames and quote out of context."

Ouyang Qing clenched his hands, feeling like he wanted to rush up and beat someone up.

"This is the court, old Discipline Inspection Commission, don't be impulsive." Jiang Chen teased, as relaxed as ever.

"The innocent will be cleared, let them speak." Xie Wendong looked over there with a helpless expression.

A few people walked around quietly.

"Don't think too much, go back and have a good rest. Leave professional matters to professionals."

Next to the car, Jiang Chen comforted her. It was self-evident who the professional he was referring to was. He really didn't treat Qingmei as an outsider.

"Well, Fang Qing, you have worked really hard."

The two ladies... were not in a position to speak, so Xie Wendong had to do it for them.

"Go."

Since they were unwilling to eat together, Jiang Chen did not force them and gestured for Xie Wendong and the others to leave first.

The three of them got into the Audi A8 one after another.

Xie Wendong was driving, watching his old classmates getting farther and farther away in the rearview mirror.

"Jiang Chen has expressed his opinion, Yu Fei, so stop blaming yourself."

Wu Yufei sat in the back row, silent, as if she had returned to being the introverted girl she was in middle school.

"Jiang Chen is here in person, this matter will definitely be properly resolved." Ouyang Qing, who was sitting in the back row, also spoke to comfort him.

Although given their relationship, he could address Jiang Chen by his name, but if they put aside their friendship as classmates, what should he call him?

As a supplier, they know exactly what Spark Medical Center represents.

It is no exaggeration to say that, just like the name Spark, it will ignite the bloated and corrupt medical system.

And how huge is the interest represented by the medical system?

No wonder people can ride the tens of millions Trek Butterfly as a shared bike.

"Yes, this little trouble should not be worth mentioning to Jiang Chen. The challenges he faces are hard for us to imagine."

Xie Wendong murmured as he drove.

Ouyang Qing was silent, turned his head and looked at his former classmates and current partners.

As a woman and a friend who she had known for so many years, she knew that the reason why the other party was depressed might not just be because of the lawsuit.

"Wendong is right. People at different levels think about completely different things. Our worries may be insignificant to Jiang Chen."

"He invested in us, helped us start a company, and found business for us, but all we gave him in return was trouble."

Wu Yufei looked depressed and said softly, "Unlike Fang Qing, who has been able to help him since middle school."

Ouyang Qing smiled bitterly, and looked at the rearview mirror as if he had telepathy, and then happened to meet the eyes of Xie Wendong who was also looking at the rearview mirror.

Obvious.

The two people's inner thoughts coincided with each other.

A large part of Wu Yufei’s strangeness actually comes from “people”.

Ouyang Qing hesitated. From a friend's perspective, she should have encouraged the other party, but objective facts made it impossible for her to say anything against her will.

In the end, perhaps considering her embarrassment, it was Xie Wendong who spoke for her.

"Yu Fei, why do you want to compare yourself with Fang Qing? If you always think about comparing yourself with others, you will never be happy. For example, if I compare myself with Jiang Chen, when he was my deskmate, he asked me questions. Now, shouldn't I jump into the river?"

After leaving the Power Bureau, Xie Wendong has changed a lot, at least he has made visible progress in his eloquence. Wu Yufei couldn't help laughing, and finally smiled and looked forward.

"You also think there's a big gap between me and Fang Qing."

"Uh……"

Xie Wendong was embarrassed and didn't know how to make amends.

"Fang Qing... is truly outstanding."

In terms of friendship, Ouyang Qing and Wu Yufei's friendship is definitely stronger than Fang Qing's, but objective facts sometimes defeat subjective emotions.

Putting aside her superficial appearance, they have all observed Fang Qing's interpersonal relationships, professional abilities, and personality and conversation during this period.

Ouyang Qing had only one feeling, which was that he felt inferior to others. He couldn't even feel any jealousy, only admiration.

If you treat such a target as an imaginary enemy, it would definitely be an extremely torturous thing.

of course.

As friends, they certainly couldn't just talk about the facts, so Ouyang Qing immediately changed the subject and said humorously: "But even if Fang Qing is so outstanding, she still hasn't won Jiang Chen over."

After hearing this, Xie Wendong also laughed. He nodded with deep feeling and said, "I really admire Jiang Chen. He even likes a woman like Fang Qing... He must have very high standards."

"It's not vision."

Wu Yufei's smile faded, and her voice softened, "Fang Qing is too special to him."

After seeing off the three old classmates, Jiang Chen and Fang Qing got in the car.

"What to eat."

"Hot Noodles with Sesame Paste."

"..."

Jiang Chen was helpless, but that was the other person's character. He never cared about food, clothing, housing and transportation. There was no difference between roadside spicy hot pot and high-end Western restaurants.

Hot dry noodles, a Jiangcheng delicacy, is famous all over the world and can be found almost everywhere on the streets.

So the driver found a nearby noodle shop, and the two got off the car and ordered two bowls of hot dry noodles.

“This lawsuit is not that simple.”

Fang Qing took the disposable chopsticks that someone handed to her and broke into pieces.

“A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.”

Boss Jiang made a light-hearted and domineering statement. If he had said it in a private restaurant that was not open to the public, rather than in a roadside noodle shop, it would have been more appropriate.

"How much does that couple want?"

"five million."

Jiang Chen raised his lips, and lowered his head to eat noodles with disposable chopsticks, "Five million can buy a nice house in Jiangcheng now."

Fang Qing didn't mix in too much subjective emotion. She lifted her hair to avoid it falling into the bowl, and said in a formal tone: "If you give this one five million, there will be countless five million waiting for you next time."

As a legal worker, you must not only master the legal provisions, but also understand human nature.

Jiang Chen may not be like Qingmei, who has conducted systematic research and study in related areas, but he has stumbled along the way and has seen a lot of the dark side of human nature in real life.

So he could understand what Fang Qing said.

Once this loophole is opened, you can get a legacy of five million for your family by jumping off the building. Then, you can try to fantasize about whether the Xinghuo Medical Center will be crowded with terminally ill patients queuing up to jump off the building instead of seeing a doctor.

of course.

Some people may not be so great. Even if they are suffering from a terminal illness, they will try their best to survive. But at this time, what also needs to be considered is the "emotions" of their family members.

Rather than losing both money and life and being dragged down by high medical bills, what would people choose at the crossroads if they choose to sacrifice a dying person in exchange for a better life for the whole family?

In that situation, whether or not one is willing to jump off a building is not something that the terminally ill patient can decide alone.

It's even more than a terminal illness.

With a population of more than one billion in China, what percentage of people can earn five million in their lifetime? "Is that why you are so unwilling to compromise?"

Jiang Chen took a bite of hot dry noodles.

To be honest, although the label of Jiangcheng hot dry noodles is very popular, the taste is not as authentic as Shacheng's hot dry noodles.

"The law is about right and wrong. In this lawsuit, neither Spark Medical Center nor Xingchen Medical Technology was at fault. The compensation of 30 yuan is the greatest degree of humanistic care."

As a legal practitioner, one certainly cannot be "compassionate". As a top talent trained by the School of Political Science and Law, Fang Qing would not have such low-level defects.

The company she referred to as Xingchen Medical Technology was the company founded by Wu Yufei and others.

"If it's really as you said, we didn't do anything wrong. I think we shouldn't pay even 30 yuan. We don't need to pay a penny."

Fang Qing was already rational and calm enough, but she had no idea that someone was even more ruthless and impartial.

So much so that Fang Qing even glanced at him.

"Funeral expenses can still be given."

Jiang Chen smiled, and took the opportunity to start a lecture: "Why do we have to pay for the burial? Is it because the dead are the most important? The true justice of the law is not to favor the weaker ones, nor is it to compromise. Shouldn't it be based on objective facts to determine the incident itself?"

Fang Qing did not continue the topic, picking up the noodles in the bowl, "This lawsuit is ostensibly for money, but it is actually against the Spark Medical Center."

Don't be fooled by someone's righteous and stern words. In fact, whether the compensation is 30 or 500 million, it makes no difference to him. But if it is aimed at the Xinghuo Medical Center, the meaning is different.

"Do you have evidence?"

Jiang Chen's expression did not change.

Fang Qing was silent.

"Are you hiding something? Tell me, I won't leak it to anyone." Jiang Chen joked.

"If the couple was just seeking money, they would have come to the Spark Medical Center to negotiate first, instead of taking it directly to court. And the court wouldn't have repeatedly and implicitly reminded us to keep things quiet."

Jiang Chen sighed, "So it's fortunate that it's you, you have sharp insight. If you really follow the court's instructions, it would be like mud falling on your crotch, and you can't explain it clearly."

It wasn't you who hit him, why are you helping him?

It's not your fault, why should you pay so much money?

"I believe the law is fair, but the court is different."

Jiang Chen talked to himself, ignoring Qingmei's reaction, and lowered his head to eat noodles. In fact, Fang Qing didn't react either.

The first bird to stick its head out will be shot down. Anyone who wants to break the old rules will be hit by the power of the rules, but what Jiang Chen didn't expect was.

It will happen in Jiangcheng.

Jiangcheng is the provincial capital.

It can also be said to be his hometown.

So the feeling at this moment is indescribable.

"You should have expected it." Fang Qing seemed to be able to sense the complexity of his emotions.

"I know, but I am also upset. Xinghuo Medical Center is not mine alone. Cao Jinse is the founder. If she knew that Xinghuo had an accident in Jiangcheng, would she laugh at me?"

Jiang Chen thought the other party would "kick him when he's down", but he heard, "She won't."

Jiang Chen tilted his head.

"You can't represent Jiangcheng, and Jiangcheng can't represent you."

"Ah~" Jiang Chen sighed again.

Don't blame him either.

When he was away from home, his plane crashed, and when he returned to China, he was stabbed by his own people.

Anyone would probably feel uncomfortable if they were in this situation.

"This lawsuit is just the beginning. If you stir up a hornet's nest, you must be prepared for endless attacks, but try not to involve innocent people."

Someone must be able to hear the hidden meaning, or maybe the two of them just have such a good understanding of each other.

"Are you referring to Wu Yufei and the others?"

frank.

sincere.

Too damn blunt.

Right.

There is nothing to hide.

He is not Zhou Zhiruo, he is Zhang Wuji. He has a clear conscience and nothing to be afraid of.

"The interests behind the medical system are too huge, and a large-scale demonstration broke out in Korea because of this. If you want to touch other people's cheese, you need to be careful that others will take risks."

Anyone with power should be able to find out who is behind the Spark Medical Center.

Just because you have a strong background doesn’t mean no one dares to mess with you.

Goryeo is a clear example.

What about the president?

"What you said makes sense." Jiang Chen nodded in agreement, "If a few old classmates are implicated, then I will be blamed for it."

"I know you are classmates, there is no need to emphasize it."

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned. "Did I emphasize this intentionally? Are you being too sensitive?"

“Am I sensitive?”

Fang Qing looked at him.

When their eyes met, Jiang Chen said frankly, "Wu Yufei may have had a crush on me, but that's all in the past. At that time, we were young and ignorant. With my demeanor back then, it was not normal for a girl to like me. There's nothing to be proud of."

Fang Qing listened quietly from beginning to end, and only said after he finished speaking: "Did I say anything abnormal?"

Boss Jiang, who seemed to be a bit self-indulgent, was not shy or impatient, and continued calmly: "I'm glad you can understand. What I mean is that we should not talk about the past anymore. We are just classmates and friends now. It's so pure to be able to sit down and have a meal together."

He could understand the hidden meaning in Fang Qing's words, so how could Fang Qing not understand his sarcasm?

"You mean I didn't let them come?"

"I didn't think so."

Jiang Chen immediately denied it, and then sighed: "Maybe it's just that your aura is too strong."

"Can I compete with you?"

Fang Qing finally couldn't help but retort.

"I'm different. I'm down to earth."

Boss Jiang's face is extremely shameless, but it makes people speechless.

Suddenly.

He put down his chopsticks, took out a few tissues from the tissue box on the table and handed them over.

"Wipe your mouth."

Ok.

Boss Jiang really knows the boundaries.

Fang Qing didn't take it. Instead, she went to get a tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth, only to find that there was no sesame paste stain at all.

Looking at someone else, he already had a smile that looked like he deserved a beating, like a child who had successfully played a prank.

Fang Qing didn't scold him, she just put down the tissue silently and said, "You were indeed more likable when you were young."

Someone's smile froze. (End of this chapter)
