Hong Kong Film: Jimmy? Please call me Councillor Li

Chapter 313 He Ma Negotiates with the Gan Family

Good job, darling! You've got a great wingman! I'll give you a big reward later.

"Now that you've spoken, is there any room for negotiation? How can I refuse?"

"It's good to know."

Ruan Mei smiled mischievously. Li Jiayuan glanced at his watch; there was still time.

"Okay, Aunt Sa, the person you mentioned, could you have her come over now? It's simple if you want to file a lawsuit. I'll have the company's legal department send someone to handle the case for you, free of charge."

But at the very least, I need to ask the person involved for their opinion first.

Lu Yan was curious about Aunt Sa. Among all the people in the family, Aunt Sa was probably the most funny. Although she had a foul mouth and liked to attack indiscriminately, she had a very interesting personality.

Sometimes he does things irrationally, but when it comes to public relations, he's impeccable; his scenes are incredibly satisfying. So, Li Jiayuan's desire to meet him in person can be considered a form of fangirling.

"Really, Mr. Li? How can we possibly thank you enough?"

Upon hearing Li Jiayuan's words, He Ma's family members were so excited that they didn't know how to react. He Ma, in particular, seemed to have become much younger. Her sister's situation had kept her from eating or sleeping well for the past two days.

Although her younger sister always boasted that she had 4 million, she had never seen it and did not believe that her sister had that much money. Yin Hong wanted to sue her and demand 4 million in compensation. Wasn't her goal to squeeze all her money out of her?

If Li Jiayuan were willing to help them, that would be a different story.

The legal department of Jiayuan Group is undoubtedly capable, and they are even willing to provide free legal aid, which means they don't have to spend any money and are very confident in their ability to succeed.

Originally, she planned that if this matter could not be resolved, she would have no choice but to risk her reputation and plead with the Gan family to let her sister go.

Another hundred years later, Ah Yue had already called Aunt Sa to come out.

About ten minutes later, Aunt Sa sat down in the shop, and Aunt He quickly went up to pull her younger sister and brought her to Li Jiayuan.

"Mr. Li, this is my sister, Ah Sa."

"Ah Sa, this is the big boss of Hong Kong Island Home Group. He asked you to come here today to talk about your lawsuit."

When Aunt Sa entered the room and saw Li Jiayuan, her eyes seemed to be glued to him; she was so excited that she even stopped breathing.

As a seasoned financial enthusiast, Aunt Sa has read a lot of financial news from Hong Kong Island. She is very familiar with Li Jiayuan, and she can recite all his titles by heart.

She even often dreams that her daughter can marry Li Jiayuan and become a wealthy socialite.

Although she knew it was wishful thinking, who says people can't have fantasies?

"Oh, Mr. Li Jiayuan, I really like you! I often see you on the news on TV."

Aunt Sa was a little too enthusiastic. She immediately grabbed Li Jiayuan's hand and even pushed Ruan Mei aside.

He Ma and the others felt their faces burning with embarrassment, inexplicably ashamed.

"Ah Sa, what are you doing? That's so rude."

Aunt He pulled Aunt Sa aside, then apologized to Li Jiayuan, who raised his hand.

"You must be Aunt Sa. I heard you're Aunt Sa's sister. You're so lucky to have Aunt He as your older sister."

After Li Jiayuan finished speaking, everyone's expression changed. Anyone with eyes could tell that his words were a warning to Aunt Sa. To put it simply, that was...

I'm only helping you because you're He Ma's sister.

Aunt Sa was a little embarrassed, but didn't dare to say anything. She was so surprised that she probably wouldn't be able to eat dinner that night. She had never realized that her sister had such powerful connections.

My sister is so stupid. She knows such a wealthy young master and doesn't even know how to take advantage of him. Even a tiny bit of money that falls between his fingers would be enough for them to eat.

Li Jiayuan noticed all of Aunt Sa's little thoughts and glances, and he wasn't surprised at all. That's exactly how Aunt Sa's character should be.

A few minutes later, the lawyer representing the Jiayuan Group arrived. It wasn't Law Lik-ya, but he was also a well-known barrister in Hong Kong. Jiayuan's legal department was currently at its peak, much like the Nanshan Pizza Hut.

The main reason is that Li Jiayuan is willing to spend money. In his view, the legal department is one of the most important parts of the company, so what's wrong with spending more money?

"Brother Yuan."

"sister in law"

After the lawyer arrived, he greeted Li Jiayuan first, and then Huang Lei.

Aunt Sa and the lawyer went to the side for a consultation, but you could still hear Aunt Sa's strong voice from time to time.

"Fight! Why wouldn't I fight? I want to make that vixen furious!"

"Trying to bankrupt me? Who's afraid of who? I'm not afraid of them at all, you despicable bastard, you vixen!"

Li Jiayuan found it amusing; this guy was really good with words.

If he remembers correctly, in the original film, when Aunt Sa learned that she was going to be sued, she couldn't bring herself to admit it and pretended to be tough, but in the end, she secretly ran downstairs to cry.

Now that she knows she doesn't need to spend money to hire someone to fight the case and has a lawyer to help her, given her vengeful nature, she will never let Yin Hong off the hook; she'll make her furious to death.

Give me back my money, or at least a hair.

The matter was quickly settled, and the lawyer advised that such a case could be pursued with a not-guilty plea, as it was, after all, just a civil lawsuit.

Going to heaven is just about compensation, and it won't amount to much money.

Even so, Mrs. He still wanted to talk to the Gan family first. She didn't want to go to court again unless absolutely necessary, as another court hearing would only be a waste of time.

Li Jiayuan and the other two went back first, while He Ma decided to take Lian Zirong to the Gan family for a talk.

Lian Zi Rong was the head chef of the shop for a long, long time. Later, he was poached by Yin Hong and betrayed He Ma. After that, he offended Lian Zi Rong again. He Ma took pity on him and kept him on again despite past grievances.

He Ma is such a kind-hearted person that it always makes you wonder how there can be such a good person in the world.

—Gan Family

"Mom and Dad, are you really going to sue Aunt Sa? We're all family, why make such a big fuss?"

Everyone was in the Gan family's living room.

Gan Taizu, Yin Hong, and their uncle's family who lived with them, Gan Taizu's mother, who was also the grandmother of He Ma's sons.

Finally, there were two younger ones: Yin Hong's daughter, Yu Suqiu (Xin Nu), and He Ma's son, Gan Yongyuan (Fan Shu Yuan).

At this moment, Gan Yongyuan and Yu Suqiu were persuading Gan Taizu and Yin Hong to drop the lawsuit.

"Grandpa, Aunt He is here."

Sweet Potato Ball is He Ma's son. Although he was brought here when he was a child, he has never lost his relationship with He Ma. When his mother comes, of course he has to go out to greet her.

Gan Taizu and Yin Hong glanced disdainfully at He Ma and Lian Zirong, who had just entered from outside, their expressions dark and disgusted.

Gan Taizu even mocked lotus seed paste.

"Lianzi Rong, what are you doing here? You're really opportunistic."

(I recommend watching this part of the original video. Search "Heart of Greed 2" on Baidu. It's by a blogger named Ah Lu. It's in episode 3.)
Lianzi Rong ignored Gan Taizu's mockery and helped He Ma.

Yin Hong sat down on the sofa, and the couple didn't even glance at He Ma, as if she didn't exist in their eyes.

"Sister He, it's been over ten years since you last came here. What brings you here this time?"
