Chapter 2928 Meeting with Witnesses

There's an old saying: The ruthless fear the stubborn, and the stubborn fear the reckless.

"Gulp~" Han Zhitong swallowed hard for no reason, but he was too embarrassed to apologize because of his status.

But her tone softened slightly: "Lawyer Qiu, you..."

"Get out!"

"I…"

"I told you to get out!" Qiu Hua roared at her with all his might, like a furious lion, venting the anger that had been hidden in his heart for so many years.

Old Han sobered up by this time and realized that things seemed to be getting serious. As a lawyer, he was well aware of the deterrent power of that recording; if it were to be released, it would constitute harassment.

After leaving, he didn't dare to linger and quickly went to Fang Lihong to discuss countermeasures.

"That's the situation!" After describing the basic facts, Old Han sat down opposite Fang Lili's desk like a wilted eggplant, his head almost touching his crotch.

"Bang!" Fang Lihong slammed her hand on the table, her eyes flashing with displeasure; she was clearly angry. "Old Han, why can't you control that thing in your crotch?"

"If you really can't control it, just cut it off!"

"How old are you?"

"Looks like you're almost 60, right?"

"Can't you be a little more serious?"

"If Qiu Hua takes you to court, what will become of our law firm's reputation?"

"I..." Han Zhitong had held back when he explained earlier, only saying that Qiu Hua had misunderstood him, but he didn't actually have any other thoughts.

"Alright, don't think I don't know you. Our son is about to graduate from university, and you still have this attitude?" Fang Lihong said on the surface that she was disappointed in him, but in her heart she was overjoyed. She had finally managed to control this old man.

"Hurry up and confess honestly. I don't believe you'd be this scared if Qiu Hua didn't have substantial evidence."

Under repeated questioning, Han Zhitong finally confessed to the recording.

"You..." Fang Lihong was so angry that she was speechless. She just wanted to control him, but she never expected that this guy actually had something on Qiu Hua.

He said impatiently, "Hurry up and handle this properly. I'll give you one day!"

“Fang Lu, I…”

"What...you still want me to solve this for you?" Fang Lihong was so angry she laughed. "You're really hopeless!"

Just as Fang Lihong was reprimanding Han Zhitong.

"What?" Luo Yingzi was utterly astonished. "Qiu Hua, you..."

"What, do you think I'm too despicable?" Qiu Hua was incredibly calm at this moment, sitting there without any of the rage he had shown earlier.

“Yingzi, I don’t have a father like you who is a professor, nor do I have a father like Xia Shu who is a high-ranking official. Everything I have now depends on myself!”

"Mr. Tian's project is beyond saving. Without any more cases, I'll be kicked out!"

From her first day at work, Qiu Hua knew that Han Zhitong wanted to sexually harass her, but she never explicitly confronted him. Moreover, whenever she was alone with Han Zhitong, she would cleverly turn on her phone to record the conversation.

As for why she was so disgusted with Han Zhitong, why did she still become his assistant?

It's also because there's profit to be made.

Many people in the criminal defense department can't handle more than a few cases a year because Han Zhitong divides each case into many parts, like an emperor wielding the power of life and death. He takes the lion's share of the profits, leaving only a meager amount, which depends on who obeys him.

However, Qiu Hua was able to work independently with Han Zhitong, at the cost of enduring a few harassing remarks from Han Zhitong. He managed to deal with the situation slowly with his own intelligence, which was not unbearable.

After Luo Yingzi entered the law firm, she discovered that Han Zhitong was harassing Qiu Hua, but Qiu Hua did not expose him, and Luo Yingzi did not dare to speak out.

Luo Yingzi suggested that the two of them become practicing lawyers and then go out on their own.

But Qiu Hua unexpectedly refused.

Because she knew very well that Luo Yingzi, being new to the job, had courage and confidence, but her actual abilities were unknown. Compared to Han Zhitong, Qiu Hua still didn't believe that Luo Yingzi could lead her to find cases, so she preferred to live in the gossip of her colleagues and continue to follow Han Zhitong.

As time went on, Luo Yingzi and Qiu Hua became the few intern lawyers to complete six cases. Unlike Luo Yingzi, who relied on her own courageous and competitive personality, Qiu Hua relied entirely on Han Zhitong's small favors.

As a senior partner at the law firm, Han Zhitong, who had been kept in suspense, was no fool. He gradually lost patience and started to directly ask Qiu Hua to go to a hotel.

Qiu Hua did not refuse, and even gave Han Zhitong the illusion that he was willing to accept the invitation.

Therefore, Han Zhitong booked a hotel room in front of Qiu Hua and prepared some entertainment drinks. He arrived at the hotel early and ate them when it was almost time. Then, full of anticipation, he changed into his pajamas and waited there.

It was only at this point that Qiu Hua realized they couldn't continue like this; they had no choice but to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless, and follow Luo Yingzi.

They tricked Lao Han.

Later... naturally, he was targeted at every turn.

Luo Yingzi used the fact that Han Zhitong had accepted a bribe of 30,000 yuan from Wang Dafu to force Han Zhitong to apply for professional licenses for both herself and Qiu Hua.

At first, Han Zhitong only asked for one spot, which was for Qiu Hua. This guy still had that old problem: he was always itching for something he couldn't have. Because of Qiu Hua's usual behavior, Han Zhitong had the wrong feeling that the conditions he offered were not good enough.

Therefore, he was certain that as long as he gave Qiu Hua a license to practice, Qiu Hua would definitely submit to him.

In reality, Qiu Hua had only been using Han Zhitong.

She used the "not refusing" approach to lure Han Zhitong.

Therefore, Qiu Hua is no ordinary person who has achieved what he has today. The reason he dares to turn against others now is because he has found a new backer.

Luo Yingzi!
Of course, you could also say that Xia Shu is a naive and innocent girl~

It's strange how "saintly" people often seem to have a mutual appreciation for each other. Luo Yingzi, who's always acting recklessly, somehow became friends with the rich young lady, Xia Shu. She even secured a major project through Xia Shu's connections.

This gave Qiu Hua a glimmer of hope, and he realized that following Luo Yingzi was more promising than following Han Zhitong, at least he wouldn't have to pay as much, which is why he decided to form a team with Luo Yingzi.

Moreover, besides having the confidence to kick out Han Zhitong, Fang Lihong, as the director of Liangcheng Law Firm, was not tough enough to control these veteran partners due to the internal corruption within the firm.

This has led to each of the senior lawyers harboring their own ulterior motives. They rush into profitable projects one after another, but back down from anything that is even slightly difficult. Don't be fooled by the current prosperity of the law firm; in reality, a crisis is already brewing behind the scenes.

These people, led by Han Zhitong, would use any means necessary for their own benefit. In order to force them to give up Wei Tongren's divorce case, they took the initiative to contact Wei Tongren's wife and sign the contract in advance, which forced Qiu Hua and Luo Yingzi to give up Wei Tongren's case.

At this point, Fang Lihong, the director of the law firm, sided with Han Zhitong for her own benefit, which was clearly petty and narrow-minded.

If a partner only knows how to steal cases from his own firm all day long, the atmosphere of the law firm will be completely ruined sooner or later.

Qiu Hua was thinking far ahead, even treating Liangcheng Law Firm as a stepping stone, planning to quickly accumulate experience before the ship sinks, find another job, and leave as soon as possible.

Seeing Luo Yingzi gradually succeed, she finally dared to confront Han Zhitong directly, showing him the recording and saying she wanted to take away the three cases she was in charge of.

After being terribly deceived, Han Zhitong cursed her as an "ungrateful wretch."

So this Lao Han isn't a good person, he's a complete scumbag and a bastard.

However, Qiu Hua was not a kind person either, and Han Zhitong did not yield at all when he was defeated by her.

Han Zhitong is now like a piece of meat on a chopping board, completely at Qiu Hua's mercy. Qiu Hua had previously considered him her last trump card, but now she has no choice but to use it…

Meanwhile, Chen Shuo was in a teahouse near an old residential area. The environment wasn't great, as it was only for the general public and even somewhat resembled a card room. Most of the customers were retired old men with nothing to do.

"Come, come, try my tea-making skills!" He smiled and pushed the teacup to the other side.

"Attorney Chen, just say what you have to say!" A young man sat opposite him, arms crossed, looking unapproachable, his face cold as if he were looking at an enemy.

Chen Shuo didn't seem to care at all, smiling slightly as he sipped his tea. "Don't be so hostile, that's just how the legal profession is!"

"Since you're sitting here, I'm sure you're mentally prepared. There are only the two of us here, no outsiders, so there's no need to act so glorious and grand!"
