"Who is it? Come on, stop knocking!" Fan Bing's father walked over to open the door, and then saw Cao Zhongbo standing at the door with an expressionless face.
"Xiao, Xiao Cao, you come, what are you doing here?"
After all, he felt that his daughter's behavior was not right, so he had no confidence in speaking.
"Is Fan Bing at home?" Cao Zhongbo asked, turning on the video equipment as he spoke.
Fan Bing's father looked back and didn't know what to say.
Inside the house, Fan Bing had already heard Cao Zhongbo's voice. He stood up and walked to the door, then crossed his arms and asked, "What's wrong? What are you doing here?"
"Why am I here? If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known. We just got engaged, and you didn't answer my calls or messages. I went to your company and found out you'd already resigned. What are you trying to do?"
Fan Bing said coldly: "I don't want to do anything, I just suddenly realized that I don't want to marry you. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
This sentence was like a piece of ice, shattering Xiao Cao's last thought.
In his heart, he really wanted to be with this girl, form a beautiful family and live a happy life.
However, the other party seemed to not care about his thoughts at all.
If He Ling were here, she would definitely tell him. Who would care about the thoughts of a bootlicker?
No matter how much you do, it's just self-satisfaction. I don't understand why there are always people who think they can succeed by just licking.
After getting this answer, Cao Zhongbo should have started asking questions as Wang Daoren taught him, but he was a little overwhelmed.
"Don't you want to get married now? We just got engaged a few days ago. Why are you doing this?" Cao Zhongbo shouted excitedly.
There was a quarrel, so the neighbors naturally stuck their heads out to watch the fun. Cao Zhongbo became more and more excited as he spoke, and he couldn't hold back his tears.
"Can you please stop yelling? You're a grown man, why are you crying? You just don't want to get married, so what?"
“There’s something wrong!”
After saying that, he was about to go back. Cao Zhongbo finally came to his senses. He suddenly felt that he really was like a dog before.
Lifting his sleeves to wipe away his tears, Cao Zhongbo's tone became calmer: "Wait a minute, it's okay not to get married, but what about the betrothal gift? I gave you 200,000 yuan as a betrothal gift, you have to return it to me."
As he spoke, he checked his phone and said, "By the way, I'm recording this right now."
"You're still recording, right? You've become quite capable, Cao Zhongbo! I'm telling you, I won't refund a single cent of your betrothal gift!"
"You want to take back the betrothal gifts you gave me? Cao Zhongbo, are you still a man? I now realize that it was a wise decision to leave you. I've never met a man as petty as you!"
As he was speaking, Fan Bing came up and snatched the phone away, turning off the recording. Just as he was about to say something, Cao Zhongbo spoke.
What the other party said made him have a little high blood pressure. Two hundred thousand... I want it back now. Am I being stingy?
However, Lawyer Wang had a tutorial, so Cao Zhongbo suppressed his anger and said before the other party could speak: "But according to the provisions of our country's Civil Code, you must return the money to me in your situation. If you don't, it will be illegal..."
When talking about the law in front of many people, you will most likely be interrupted, leading to a situation where "you talk about the law and I laugh at you".
However, doing so will also result in diverting the other party's attention away from the recording.
Indeed, Cao Zhongbo looked at his mobile phone, but he never said that he was using the mobile phone to record the conversation.
In criminal evidence, evidence such as audio and video recordings is strictly judged. You must inform the other party before recording, and only then can these be considered as evidence.
Otherwise, there will be major flaws, and it is still unclear whether it will be adopted.
And now, I told you that I was recording, and you didn't express any clear objection. As for you thinking that my phone was recording, I didn't say that.
The lawyers' tricks are really dirty...
The result was just as Wang Daoren expected. He was interrupted before he could finish his words: "I just won't give up. What's the matter? Didn't you give me this betrothal gift on your own initiative? Did I force you to give it to me? You gave it to me and now you want it back?"
"Return the Civil Code. If you have the guts, go sue me and see if I'll give it to you!"
It was obvious that the other party's attention had been diverted, and in that feeling of "you laugh at me", he had even forgotten about the recording.
They had already entered the cooling-off period and were about to start executing the operation, but Fan Bing's words made Cao Zhongbo furious.
He felt that he had never understood the girl in front of him before. It was hard to imagine why she would think like this when she was so beautiful. The money was obviously his!
"Is this what your family thinks? This is all my family's hard-earned money, why wouldn't you give it to me?"
"Fan Bing, I'm asking again, are you going to give it to me or not?"
Fan Bing replied directly: "Anyway, the money has been used to buy a car for my brother. My family can't afford it, so do whatever you want."
"Okay, you won't give it to me, right? Then just wait, I'll ask you one last question. You are so heartless now, but was it all acting before? Have you ever thought about marrying me?" After saying this, Cao Zhongbo looked straight at the other person.
According to Lawyer Wang, this sentence is the key and the most important thing!
Although he didn't know why asking this question was the key, it was just like the male and female protagonists in TV dramas, who would always ask "Have you ever loved me?"
However, legally, "whether you have loved me" is not a big deal; what is crucial is "whether you have thought about marrying me until now."
Fan Bing, who was sitting opposite him, had already been feeling uncomfortable. Upon hearing this, he said directly, "Your face full of pimples makes me sick. And you're getting married? Don't you even look at yourself?"
"Anyway, I'm telling you, if you want a betrothal gift, there's no way!"
Cao Zhongbo thought about it carefully, and since there seemed to be nothing else to do, he nodded and said, "Okay, you wait."
After saying that, he turned and left. When he reached the door, he took out another mobile phone hidden in his arms, confirmed that everything was recorded, and then called Wang Daoren.
"Lawyer Wang, we've already fallen out. They won't refund a single cent."
