Chapter 520 There is only one turning point
The meal was a joyful one. Afterward, everyone sat together and chatted, the men and women discussing different topics, and soon they separated. Xu Yusen invited Ye Chi, Zhang Zijun, and Han Zhengping to his house for a while.
Xu Yusen's home was decorated in a Western style, with a bar in the main living room. He opened a bottle of red wine, and the four men sat at the bar, drinking and smoking, looking very comfortable.
More than half an hour later, Zhang Zijun's mobile phone rang. He pressed the answer button, and then Gu Erhui's voice came from it, "I'm not going home today. I'm staying here. Don't play too late."
Zhang Zijun quickly put out the cigarette in his hand and said, "Okay, I'll be back in a while. The four of us just talked and didn't do anything else."
Ye Chi: ""
Xu Yusen: “”
Han Zhengping: ""
It's like we did something.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zijun looked at the smoke surrounding him, stood up and said, "I'm going outside to get rid of the smell."
During this period, Gu Erhui was controlling him from smoking.
He stood up and went out. Ye Chi also put out the cigarette in his hand. "It's cool outside. I'll go sit outside for a while."
His wife is pregnant, so he can't smell of cigarettes.
"I'll go outside and get some fresh air." Han Zhengping also put out the cigarette in his hand, stood up and walked out.
Xu Yusen, who is still on probation: ""
Is it really that stressful?
But since the three of them had all left, he had no choice but to leave as well. The four men stood in the wind again. Zhang Zijun patted Xu Yusen's shoulder and said to Ye Chi and Han Zhengping, "I think he can drink quite well."
Han Zhengping: "That one can't beat three!"
Ye Chi: "Yes, four."
Xu Yusen: What are you talking about?
"Okay, let's go back." Ye Chi walked out, followed by Zhang Zijun and Han Zhengping. Xu Yusen grabbed Han Zhengping and whispered to him, "What did you mean by what you just said?"
Han Zhengping looked mysterious and said, "You'll know when the time comes."
The three of them left, leaving Xu Yusen confused.
After Ye Chi, Zhang Zijun and Han Zhengping returned to Gu's house, the first thing they did was brush their teeth, and then went back to their room to rest.
Han Zhengping didn't plan to leave today. After brushing his teeth, he stood by the window of Gu Siqing's room, knocked on it, and asked quietly, "Xiao Si, are you asleep?"
Gu Siqing was leaning against the bed reading a book. When she heard his voice, she said, "No."
Han Zhengping: "Then open the door for me."
Gu Siqing got out of bed and opened the door. Just as it opened a crack, Han Zhengping squeezed in. Gu Siqing asked him, "Aren't you going home?"
Han Zhengping held the person in his arms and said, "I'm not leaving tonight."
"What did you four do just now?" Gu Siqing looked up at him and said, "My second sister just called Jun Ge, and he said you didn't do anything. I can tell from this that this is a cover-up."
"Xu Yusen opened a bottle of red wine and we drank some. Didn't Second Sister forbid Jun-ge from drinking?" Han Zhengping avoided the main point and said, "We didn't drink much, less than one glass each."
Gu Siqing was skeptical, but didn't care. The two of them hugged each other for a while before Han Zhengping went back to his room to rest. The main reason was that Gu Siqing had no idea Han Zhengping was smoking.
Ye Chi was also explaining to Gu Yimin, "We didn't do anything, we just drank some red wine. But we did do something wrong. We already drank during the meal, so we shouldn't drink again. I'll be more careful next time."
Seeing that he admitted his mistake with a good attitude, Gu Yimin said nothing and was helped to go to bed to rest.
Zhang Zijun also explained, "We really didn't do anything, we just sat together and chatted."
Gu Erhui walked over and sniffed him, "It smells like cigarettes."
Zhang Zijun was shocked. "How is that possible? I was standing in the wind for quite a while."
Gu Erhui looked at him with a half-smile. Zhang Zijun quickly hugged her and begged for mercy, "I only smoked two. I brushed my teeth. There's no taste at all. Try it."
As he spoke, he kissed her. Some families were happy while others were sad. The Gu family was happy, but the Qi family was gloomy.
When the Qi family learned that Qi Hang was taken to the police station, they were shocked and then at a loss. They knew what Qi Hang had done, but they always thought that Qi Hang was just assisting Qiao Yidan from the outside and nothing would happen to him.
Or perhaps they were trying to lull themselves into believing Qi Hang would be alright. However, the reality was the opposite, and Qi Hang was caught red-handed.
"I miscalculated," Grandpa Qi Hang sighed deeply and said, "I didn't expect Su Zhengping to be so scheming."
He thought that even if Qiao Yidan's theft of the documents was exposed, Qi Hang would not be implicated. After all, Qi Hang was only an auxiliary, and the Su family could not find any evidence against him. But he never expected that Han Zhengping would wait until Qiao Yidan faxed the documents to the company before arresting him.
It can only be said that people's cognition and vision are inseparable. Grandpa Qi Hang didn't know how fierce the competition was between the Su family's Minghe Technology and the company, so he would not have thought that after Qiao Yidan faxed the documents to the company, the Su family would take the initiative in the subsequent negotiations.
"Dad, please think of a way! You must save Qi Hang. If he is really sentenced, his life will be over." Qi Hang's father Qi Tianheng said anxiously.
"Don't make noise, let me think about it." Qi Hang's grandfather Qi Xiunian said irritably.
"Okay, if you want, if you want." Qi Tianheng said.
Qi Xiunian closed his eyes and was silent for a while before saying, "First find a lawyer to ask about the situation, and then we'll talk."
Qi Tianheng nodded quickly and went to find the best lawyer in the country. In the afternoon, Qi Xiunian and Qi Tianheng met with lawyer Lu Xinhua.
"This situation is very difficult to handle!" Lu Xinhua said after listening to Qi Tianheng's account of what happened: "The only way to exempt Qi Hang from criminal responsibility is to get the Su family to withdraw the lawsuit. But will the Su family do that?"
"Is there no other way?" Qi Xiunian asked.
"No," Lu Xinhua said, "the other party has complete evidence, and the Su family's lawyers are top-notch in the country. You can't win this case."
Qi Xiunian and Qi Tianheng were in a state of dejection when they heard Lu Xinhua say again, "There is only one chance for a turnaround now."
Qi Xiunian and Qi Tianheng were both invigorated after hearing his words, and then they heard Lu Xinhua say, "The reason the Su family arrested Qiao Yidan and Qi Hang after they faxed documents to the company is simply because they want to sue the company.
However, this kind of international case not only takes a long time, but also China's international status is not very high. This will result in the Su family seeming to have the initiative in this lawsuit, but being very passive in many aspects.
So, in this case, the Su family might choose to negotiate with the company and settle out of court. The turning point I'm talking about is that when you ask the company to negotiate with the Su family, you should make it a condition that the Su family withdraw their lawsuit against Qi Hang. Of course, if you do that, the company will lose more.
