Because it was already before National Day, Zhou Xinran planned to return to Jingzhou to make some preparations.
I'll have to go meet my parents with some handsome guy...
September 28th is a sunny day. Avoid visiting graves or burning paper. It is a good day for court hearings, sentencing, and release from prison.
After getting up, Mr. Fang looked at the date and thought it was a good day.
The two of them went all the way to the L County Court, called the judge in charge of the case, and soon arrived at the mediation room, but no one had come yet.
It’s okay, so I just sat down and waited.
While waiting, Mr. Fang asked about the progress of the two.
"Zhou Yi, as a man, you should take the initiative, right? Of course, I'm not asking you to be a bootlicker, but it's just that you won't be able to find a girlfriend if you continue like this. You're not like me. I don't want to find one..."
Despite Mr. Fang's earnest persuasion, he still felt that the two were more suitable, at least their values were very consistent.
If one person is serious about something, the other may cheer him on from behind. This is what is called having the same values.
It's not like one person wants to be serious and the other person always says "Why do you have to?" That's it. Even if they try to stay together, they will still break up.
After talking for so long, Fang Dazhuang's mouth was dry. He drank some water to moisten his throat and asked casually, "By the way, where are you guys at now?"
Zhou Yi thought about it seriously, and then said: "She and I will go home to see her parents during the National Day."
"Oh, meeting her parents... Wait, what? Whose parents? Zhou Xinran?"
Mr. Fang didn't want to talk anymore. I've been talking to you for so long, and you actually skipped all the previous steps. After all this fuss, you're the expert!
Zhou Yi was about to explain when the judge in charge of the case came in with two people.
One is Yang Yuxia, and the other is a deputy director of the maintenance center, whose surname is Xu.
"Everyone is here. Director Xu, please take a seat. Let's discuss what to do about this matter. We'll try to mediate. It's not a big deal." said the judge in charge of the case.
Because even if the court opens, it will be a simplified procedure. Although the circumstances are special, your case is really not a big deal.
Yang Yuxia looked at Zhou Yi and the other man with a sincere smile on her face. She said, "Mr. Zhou, it was indeed my fault before. I didn't report it in time. I apologize to you for this. I hope you can forgive me."
"Then there's the issue of compensation. We've never received compensation like this before, and the nursing home can't possibly compensate us for this. After all, it's not our responsibility..."
Director Xu next to him also said: "Yes, Mr. Zhou, you should have been more careful when driving.
Don't drive too fast at night. If you drive too fast, you won't be able to stop. There are a lot of cars on that road every day, but there are very few accidents..."
This is the tone they have set. They will try to suppress the situation first. They want to mediate, but they cannot allow the other party to ask for money.
I have never thought about whether I have any responsibility or not, and I will never think about it.
If you just think the other party is looking for trouble, then just give them some money to solve the problem.
But you insist on asking for more than 70,000 or 80,000 yuan. That’s definitely not possible. There is no way we can really compensate you for the car repair costs.
However, they saw that Mr. Zhou did not speak, but the bald man next to him spoke.
"The number of cars involved in the accident and their speeds have nothing to do with us. As a highway maintenance center, you have an obligation to ensure safe passage, but you failed to do so."
"So that's your responsibility. I don't think there's anything to say about it."
Perhaps it was because of Mr. Fang's tone and manner when he spoke that made people uncomfortable, Director Xu's face immediately became long.
"Is this Lawyer Fang? You're being too absolute. How can this be our responsibility? We, the road maintenance staff, have to keep an eye on you driving every day, right?"
"To be frank, there are so many accidents on the road. If that's the case, we'll have to blame the maintenance department, right? Then what's the point of insurance?"
"And as far as I know, your car is insured. Why don't you file an insurance claim?"
"If you have this attitude, then I think mediation will be difficult!"
Maybe it’s prejudice, or maybe it’s some other reason, but when we see this situation for the first time, we subconsciously think that the other party wants money.
The insurance company repaired the car and is planning to seek more compensation.
Therefore, Director Xu still wanted to put pressure on the other party because he was used to doing so.
However, Director Xu soon noticed that as soon as he finished speaking, the two men opposite him looked at each other with joy on their faces!
The two stood up without saying a word and turned to leave.
Director Xu and the presiding judge were both stunned, but the presiding judge quickly reacted and asked, "Where are you going?"
Zhou Yi turned around and said calmly, "Go back and prepare for the lawsuit."
"But...but our mediation has just begun."
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "Isn't it over? Look, they all said that mediation is difficult. If it's difficult, I think we should just give up and save them from such embarrassment..."
"Let's just go straight to court. It will be better for everyone."
What the hell? The judge was stunned, and Director Xu and Yang Yuxia were also stunned.
Especially Director Xu, I was just saying that. I lost a three and you just played the king bomb, right? Is that how you play cards?
