Putting down his phone, Lawyer Zheng looked at the people across from him with a smile: "My clients just called and asked you to compensate them for their economic and emotional losses, totaling 8 million each. For ten people, that's 80 million."
Meng Weiwei was completely enraged: "Why don't you just rob it? You're dreaming! We'll fight to the bitter end! Even if we take this to court, we won't give you a penny!"
Lawyer Zheng spoke slowly, "Ten million! Not a cent less! My client said if you keep arguing, I'll increase it to fifteen million per person!"
“You um… um…”
Meng Weiwei wanted to shout more, but Yu Runze quickly covered her mouth!
Lawyer Li also advised gently: "Mrs. Yu, calm down! Please stop talking! Leave this matter to me!"
Lawyer Zheng laughed: "That's right. Although Xiao Li is my junior, he is also quite famous in the circle. You spent money to invite him here, but didn't let him speak, and you ran in front and shouted. Isn't this a waste of money?"
Meng Weiwei glared at Yu Runze and hit his hand hard.
Yu Runze was furious. It was rare for him to get angry at her: "Calm down! If you say anything else, get out!"
Meng Weiwei is particularly good at reading people's expressions.
If she hadn't relied on her adaptable nature over the years, she would have given up long ago.
Her eyes and body softened, and she nodded slightly, and only then did Yu Runze let her go.
Yu Runze took her back and sat down.
Lawyer Li looked at Lawyer Zheng and said, "Lawyer Zheng, there's really no need to make such a big deal about this. It's just a matter of a few children's immature relationship. My client can return the property he used to them, pay some compensation, and even apologize in person. But the amount you're asking is too high. I believe the judge wouldn't support it even if it went to court."
Lawyer Zheng curled his lips into a smile that was full of obvious contempt and provocation.
This was the first time his young master asked him to do something.
Mr. Qi also said that in two years his son will graduate with a master's degree in law and can work with Qi Yao.
As for lawyers, especially those with rich experience and abilities, their resources can be passed on.
Therefore, he must handle this case beautifully today as a token of his loyalty to the young master.
Lawyer Zheng raised his eyebrows lightly and said casually, "I will only talk about three things. These three things are closely related to Mr. Yu Runze's interests.
First, today, the ten parties involved handed over screenshots of chats to the police. They include ambiguous text messages between Ms. Yu Yuhan and the others, chats confirming their romantic relationship, and even numerous records of money transfers and gift exchanges. These records belong to the ten parties involved. They can provide them to the police and freely post them on any social media account. Because these chat records are authentic, there is no malicious defamation or slander!
The second thing is that it is true that my ten parties are children, and it is also true that their economic losses are far less than the amount we demand for compensation. However, as long as the court session begins, we will request a live broadcast on the entire network, and require all education systems to organize parents, students and teachers to watch it together. At the same time, all chat screenshots and evidence will be published online as a case of emotional and financial deception, to provide a reference for future generations!
Third, you don't have to pay, and we can go to court. The court doesn't have to decide according to our proposal. It doesn't matter. However, if we don't get the money, the ten of us involved will definitely feel uneasy. They'll keep posting these screenshots every two or three months, and it'll be endless. I believe that under pressure from public opinion, Jinling University will no longer accept students like Yu Yuhan. Yu Yuhan's future studies and marriage will be ruined. Moreover... compared to the impact on Mr. Yu Runze's image in the eyes of the Yu Group's directors and the tens of billions of assets that have evaporated from the stock market overnight due to Yu Yuhan's scandal, is it worth it?"
After Lawyer Zheng finished speaking, he tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, as if to put pressure on the other party.
Lawyer Li frowned slightly and turned his head to look at Yu Runze.
Seeing Yu Runze's extremely ugly face, Meng Weiwei was too frightened to speak. Lawyer Li asked Lawyer Zheng, "Lawyer Zheng, can I discuss this with my client?"
Lawyer Zheng stood up and said, "I'm going outside to smoke a cigar. But I have to remind you that I won't make any concessions. Ten million per person. If you don't agree, I won't see you again except on the day of the trial."
Lawyer Zheng turned and left.
Zhou Dunyang also stood up: "You guys discuss it, I'll come over with Lawyer Zheng in a while."
In the mediation room, only Yu Runze and his wife and Meng Weiwei were left.
Lawyer Li looked at Yu Runze and said, "Mr. Yu, you only have one last option left, which is to ask your father to come forward and apologize to Chairman Qi. I heard that Chairman Qi specially invited your father to dine at the banquet today, so they must have a good relationship. Aside from Chairman Qi's grandson, the other ten students are nothing to be afraid of."
Yu Runze took a deep breath and agreed with Lawyer Li.
To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader.
Once we can deal with that kid Qi Yao, everything will be easy.
"But my dad has blocked me." Yu Runze felt a headache: "It's unlikely that he will help me apologize to the Qi family."
Meng Weiwei couldn't stand it any longer: "Then you should also make a phone call and ask, find someone to tell him about this. After all, ten people, ten million each, that's one hundred million! Where would we get so much money!"
Yu Runze thought about it, borrowed Lawyer Li’s cell phone, and called Yu Xunzhi.
The other end picked up: "Hello, who is this?"
Yu Runze was overwhelmed with excitement when he heard his father's voice: "Dad! I'm in the mediation room of the police station, I..."
The other party hung up before he could finish speaking.
Yu Runze quickly called the housekeeper, Uncle Jin, and said, "Uncle Jin, I'm in the mediation room. The other party is asking for 100 million! If you don't give them 100 million, they will take Yu Han's criminal evidence outside and display it to the public! This will only cause greater irreversible consequences for the Yu family and the Yu Corporation! Tell my dad quickly and ask him to plead with the Qi family. In this matter, as long as the Qi family..."
"Mr. Yu Runze," Uncle Jin interrupted him, his voice clearly distant. "You're worrying too much. Any scandal involving your family of three will not affect the Yu family or the Yu Clan."
Yu Runze was surprised by his address to himself: "How could it have no effect?"
Uncle Jin: "You haven't read the Yu Corporation's announcement yet, have you? After today's topic about the 18-year-old female sea king went viral, Yu Corporation's public relations department has already issued a public announcement stating that President Yu has dismissed you from all positions within the Yu Corporation and severed your relationship as father and son! The Yu Corporation's announcement also states that anyone unworthy of their position, whether they are ordinary employees or direct blood relatives, is unworthy of being the heir to the Yu Corporation! Much less the manager of the Yu Corporation!"
