What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Uh, tea with vinegar... wait a second, did some strange mixture sneak in there? Is that something you add to tea?

How long has it been since I left, and Tang's taste has changed so much? No, that's mostly wrong, who on earth did this!

Old Tang wasn't aware of Wang Qingqing's thoughts; lately, he remembered quite a bit about his past life, including his wild escapades...

Although he hadn't recalled how he died, when he thought about it carefully, considering his state back then, anything could have happened.

After waiting for a short while, Wang Qingqing came in with the tea; it was truly unbelievable—several types of vinegar were proudly displayed where the tea was brewed, all labeled: Lawyer Tang's Exclusive!

She vaguely remembered that a lawyer had once mentioned to her uncle, the head of the law firm Wang Daming, saying there were too few types of coffee and asking whether they could add some more.

As a result, she was scolded, being told that the firm barely made enough money, and it was already generous to provide coffee, so she shouldn't be so picky.

And now, buying so many types of vinegar...

"Tang Bro, time for tea," Wang Qingqing said with a smile, planning to go shopping for clothes after work today.

"Mm, put it over there, and you go do your thing," Old Tang responded.

Wang Qingqing nodded and was about to leave when she turned back and added, "Oh right, Tang Bro, I almost forgot something."

"A friend of mine from Da Feng Law Firm mentioned that Director Han had become the defense lawyer for the boss of that online loan company and had a meeting with him today."

"After coming back today, Director Han said that during the meeting, someone surnamed Liu made a threat, saying next time he sees Tang Bro, he's definitely going to get you..."

Although it was her first day at work, Wang Qingqing was already quite familiar with the basics; she proved to be a competent assistant.

A female secretary needs to be not only capable but also capable, according to Old Tang's experience from his past life. If a secretary is both pleasant to look at and good at her job, who wouldn't like her?

However, that's not the point right now; the main issue is how can someone who's already been locked up still be making threats? And making threats against a defense lawyer at that?

The surname Liu is probably referring to that Mr. Liu who dared to say in court that the judge and the opposing lawyer were connected; he's pretty badass.

But this is an interesting coincidence, because I'll be going to the detention center for a court session in a few days, and I'll just ask him then how exactly he plans to "get" me.

Before long, the day for the court session at the detention center had arrived. Old Tang didn't go to the law firm but waited at the entrance of the residential complex.

Soon, Old Wang walked out, a trace of nervousness on his face.

"Lawyer Tang, can I really meet Wang Shihua today?" Old Wang asked.

"Rest assured, old man, when have I ever failed to keep my promises? Come on, let's go," Lawyer Tang reassured him.

They took a cab and arrived at the entrance of the detention center, where Old Tang casually greeted the detention center staff.

"Morning, nice weather today, have you eaten?"

"Hey, I had a fried dough stick and salty tofu brains, totally stuffed," the staff replied.

This is a detention center, but he acts like he's right at home...

Old Wang couldn't bear to think anymore; once upon a time, young Tang was quite green, but look at him now, all grown up and so at ease.

The two waited for the judge while inside the detention center, Mr. Liu looked at the prison guard in front of him with a stunned expression, "What? A, a court session?"

"Why a court session when I'm already locked up here?" he asked.

The prison guard replied expressionlessly, "You are in detention, that's a criminal case, but criminal cases don't affect civil cases.

"Moreover, we've had our share of court sessions here..."

Gao Minghu and Wang Shihua shared Mr. Liu's reaction, especially Wang Shihua, who was completely dumbfounded when he heard about having another court session.

He never dreamed that going to jail wouldn't affect the obligation to pay up.

Soon, the three of them were brought into an improvised courtroom, which is usually reserved for swift criminal judgment.

For cases with clear facts and no small amount of guilt, they are generally resolved right here, otherwise, the grassroots courtrooms would indeed be overwhelmed.

The three sat down in handcuffs, and then Mr. Liu heard a familiar voice: "Hey, isn't that Mr. Liu? I heard you're making fierce threats that you'll finish me off next time we meet."

"Well, here I am right now, so why don't you do it?"

Mr. Liu looked up and saw Tang Fangjing's pale face, full of mockery; he was so enraged that he trembled all over.

Gao Minghu couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with you, saying all that stuff when you're already in here?"

"I, I just couldn't hold back, and I didn't even say it to him, so how does he...," Mr. Liu felt utterly wronged.

He was about to go to prison, and he couldn't even vent a few harsh words? For just one sentence, you'd come to a detention center for a court session?

In a rage, Mr. Liu also came to a realization: how did this Tang know?

Meanwhile, Wang Shihua, who had no intention of joining in, was blocked by someone.

Old Wang, nearly seventy years old, was ready to punch someone, constantly cursing as he did.

"After all the trust I put in you, acting as your guarantor, this is how you repay me? We've known each other for decades, decades!"

Decades of friendship, and they had always been close; yet in his old age, things had turned out like this...

Wang Shihua stood there, numb, not daring to say a word. If there was anyone he least wanted to face, it was naturally Old Wang.

Now, being barraged by insults, he didn't dare to talk back.

The response of the police was a bit slow; it wasn't until Old Wang had thrown a couple of punches that they stepped in to pull him away.

And they didn't dare to do it slowly, for fear that the old man might suffer from some ailment due to the commotion.

After a lot of commotion, the court session was finally ready to start. Old Zhou had been silent from beginning to end, standing to the side with a grin.

On the other hand, Wang Qingqing, who had finished her workday, now knew that it was Yan Xueling who had acted as the temporary assistant while she was on leave; the mystery was finally solved!
