What's wrong with this lawyer?!

President Guo actually felt like running away, but he was also hesitating, considering how hard jobs were to come by these days, it was uncertain whether he could find a similar position if he left. After all, not everyone could make a graceful exit like Old Niu, the former legal director of Yashi. After much consideration, President Guo finally made up his mind, not to run for now. His company probably didn't have any legal issues; in the end, it might just mean paying some compensation, which the company could afford. Therefore, President Guo quickly said, "President Wang, for the time being, there should be no problems, but we still need to be careful." "How about this, I'll go meet Tang Fangjing and see what their attitude is, assuming it's just about mediation initially. If they simply want money, then it's not too bad." He was genuinely afraid that the other party might impulsively resort to criminal proceedings, especially since he was in the middle of it and couldn't think of any problems himself. So, he figured it was best to keep the peace if possible; after all, it was the company that would be paying in the end, and as he wasn't the boss, why should he worry? It was truly a matter of "a single moment of resignation makes the world seem vaster"—he always thought he was a veteran of the company, so he considered everything from the company's perspective. Now, upon reflection, he was just a worker, and although President Liu did pay a substantial salary, it wasn't enough for him to risk his life! President Wang, of course, wasn't aware that President Guo already had plans in mind, and said, "That works, go ahead and talk to them. After all, that's Tang Fangjing, we've got to give some face." Old Tang had also received a call from the Arbitration Committee, to which he had no objection. Mediation was fine for him; his mind was troubled, but he wasn't twisted enough to take pleasure in watching someone be imprisoned... Though Ding Deshui and his son had not succeeded in their endeavors, they had still had a significant impact on Old Tang, with two death sentences closely related to him, something he had never experienced in his previous life. After several days of online discussion, the topic of "Tang Fangjing is back" finally cooled off. People like Ju Haiqing could sense that there seemed to be a deliberate effort online to lower Tang Fangjing's visibility. It seemed that some people did not want to see Tang Fangjing return. When he was originally injured and hospitalized, it felt like the internet wanted to elevate him to the skies. Now that he had returned, the fervor had notably decreased. It can only be said that when you're dead, any honor can be afforded to you, but if you're alive and continuously causing trouble, people get irritated. In Magic City, Wang Jing had just said goodbye to Professor Du and returned home once again. It was too thrilling; she never dreamed that her online disguise would be uncovered at such a time, especially when the professor called her by her online name in person, a feeling... that made her consider taking her cat and going on the run. The professor had wanted her to stay and pursue a doctorate, but she hadn't made up her mind. What she really wanted was to go to Jingzhou after graduation, to work at Tengda. She wanted to see Lawyer Tang for herself and find out what it was that drove him to do what he did. It was so perplexing. Time slowly passed, and before long, another day was gone. In the Blue Mountain District Labor Arbitration Committee, President Guo, President Wang, and a paralegal were waiting inside the mediation room. "President Guo, do you think we can settle the case this time?" the paralegal asked. Just the thought of facing Lawyer Tang Fangjing made her excited, as she was about to meet her idol. Old Tang himself had no idea how highly regarded he was among the younger generation. President Guo shook his head and said, "That's not for us to decide, President Liu has to make that call." But remembering what President Liu had said before they set off, President Guo felt this trip was doomed to failure. Looking at President Wang, President Guo felt it was even less likely; he couldn't understand why he insisted on attending the mediation. His reason was that he was responsible for HR matters and had been following Yang Tiezhi's case. President Guo naturally had no grounds to refuse, so he allowed him to come along. Finally, the door to the mediation room opened, and President Guo turned to look as a young man wearing a mask entered first, followed by a very pretty girl. He knew that the young man with the mask must be Tang Fangjing, and couldn't help but take an extra look, feeling that there was nothing particularly remarkable about him. And bringing up the rear was a woman in her forties or fifties. The woman was the mediator, Lin Caijuan, who entered smiling and said, "Oh, what a coincidence, everyone is here. Let's get started quickly, I've long heard of the great reputation of Lawyer Tang." Old Tang sat at the edge of the table and took off his mask; Wang Qingqing quickly placed the mask into her bag, then positioned the water cup neatly on the table, her actions smooth and practised, showing it was a familiar routine. Lin Caijuan also looked at Old Tang and said, "Well then... Lawyer Tang, you can start by explaining your situation. Surely it's not just about confirming the employment relationship, right?" Old Tang spoke up, "Of course not, my demands are simple. First, Kaisen Logistics has illegally terminated my client's labor contract and should provide double compensation..." Old Tang had only just started with his first point, not even reaching the second, when President Wang on the other side instantly interjected, "That's impossible. Yang Tiezhi fought with others and was detained; the company's termination of his contract was completely legal." "We can indeed provide some compensation, but that doesn't give you an excuse to make exorbitant demands!" As the words were spoken, it was visibly evident that President Guo's face began to show traces of agony, and as President Wang seemed about to continue speaking, President Guo couldn't resist stepping forward to pull him back a bit.
