Chapter 282: Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why is the money his if there is no trace?" Ge Jinhua pinched Lao Ren's thigh.
"There's no trace, but he has so many ways to get the money that it's a stretch to say. We haven't encountered many cases like this in recent years, but there have been a few." Old Ren slapped Ge Jinhua's hand away. "But if this is the case, the money will most likely never be recovered. Even if it is found out, others will have already prepared various excuses and even IOUs. It's a waste of time and effort, but in the end it will be for nothing. It's not worth it."
"So you mean we should just ignore this card?" Dong Mei said in a dilemma.
"My personal opinion is to just ignore it. If he can really do this, it means he was prepared in advance and is very scheming. It would be wise for you to reduce your losses and protect both ends.
"If you're determined to divorce, catch him off guard before he's completely transferred his assets. Gather evidence and file an appeal. Then find a lawyer and ask the court for a warrant. Once you've thoroughly investigated the situation, apply for property preservation and file a divorce lawsuit to maximize your benefits." Old Ren spoke clearly, pounding the table.
"With a lawyer's search warrant, whether it's a car, a house, securities, or bank deposits, as long as it's in his name, you can check it out.
Moreover, during the period of property preservation, all the property under his name cannot be transferred, and compulsory execution can be applied for when the judgment is made.
You are the victim and he is the one at fault. The evidence has been established. You can file for divorce damages and get the lion's share when the property is divided.
Of course, this is the property that can be traced. Whether there are properties like the bank cards we just mentioned that cannot be traced is another matter."
Zhao Xiaojing nodded secretly. The idea was sound. It would be best if the law could be used directly to clearly divide and dispose of the assets once and for all. If Zhou Jianye truly had assets that couldn't be traced using normal human resources, then instead of struggling and wasting time and energy, it would be better to simply give up and hold on to what was already there.
It is impossible for ordinary people to have the best of both worlds. They either focus on the big picture and ignore the small details, or abandon the army to protect the king.
only……
"What if none of it can be found? What if that bastard hid all the money and there's nothing left in his name? Or what if he hid most of it and there's not much left?" Ge Jinhua asked Zhao Xiaojing's question.
"Then there's nothing to be gained. If even an investigative warrant can't find anything, then the law can't do anything to him.
Moreover, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. At that time, he can also make a request to investigate the assets under Dong Mei's name and divide them during divorce.
That's why I said we had to catch him off guard, to prevent him from transferring his assets after he found out." Old Ren spread his hands.
"Aren't you harming others? What if you fail to steal the chicken... No! What if that bastard turns the tables on you and you end up with nothing to your name, and you have to share the money with him? Then Dong Mei will be in trouble, right?!" Ge Jinhua said quickly and anxiously.
"Wife, do you know how difficult it is to have nothing to your name but still have money to spend? This is a very special situation. Only those with assets of over 10 million yuan can truly achieve the step of having nothing to their name.
Generally speaking, it's difficult for ordinary people like us to transfer money without leaving any trace. Any large transfer under one's name will be investigated by the courts. Ordinary people wouldn't go through so much trouble for such a small amount of money. "Old Ren pulled Ge Jinhua's hand away from him and patiently explained.
"Besides, didn't they both buy houses outside? No matter whose name the house is under, as long as Zhou Jianye paid for it, there will be traces, and the original wife can ask for it back."
"Then Dong Mei should transfer her assets now and then file a lawsuit. Wouldn't that be a preemptive strike?"
That seems to make sense. Zhao Xiaojing's eyes lit up when she heard this, and Dong Mei also looked up at Lao Ren.
"That's fine, but if the other party really requests an investigation, there's no point in moving it now. The court isn't just for show; even if the plaintiff moves, it can still be investigated."
Unless Dong Mei delays for a few more years, finds someone she trusts, and transfers the money bit by bit over the next few years, then if the time is extended and it's not a short-term, large-scale transfer, she can still avoid it."
"A few years? That's so disgusting! No, no, if you delay it any longer, not to mention Dong Mei, I will also shorten my life by several years. We have to get a divorce as soon as possible!" Ge Jinhua shouted.
Dong Mei's face turned pale and blue. "Jinhua is right. Let's not delay any longer. Let's do as Lao Ren said. Let's sue directly and apply for an order!"
Zhao Xiaojing nodded in agreement, thinking that if she could hold on for a few more years, Dong Mei would indeed die young because she would have to take care of Zhou Jianye's parents. At the same time, she silently pondered the purpose of the system.
Putting aside the cardiac stimulant that can even save lives at critical moments, the system gave Dong Mei a highly efficient potion in this matter. Does that mean that the key to this matter is to end it as soon as possible?
Is ending this quickly even more important than uncovering the mysterious bank card and assisting Dong Mei in transferring her assets? Does that mean Zhou Jianye hasn't hidden much money, or hasn't had time to do so yet? So, there's no need to worry about these issues; a direct divorce is the best solution?
"Xiao Jing." While Zhao Xiaojing was lost in thought, Dong Mei and the other two had finished their discussion and patted her. "Send a copy of the photos and chat history on your phone to your Uncle Ren."
After Dong Mei finished speaking, she stood up and soon took out various documents of her and Zhou Jianye from the bedroom, including photos of Zhou Jianye as a child and photos with Zheng Zihui, and gave them to Lao Ren.
"The court doesn't open until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. I'll go back and sort it out for you. I'll also contact a lawyer I'm familiar with. I'll call you two to meet and sign the power of attorney. I'll then hand it over to you when the court opens on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year." Lao Ren took a look, sorted out the things and put them in his bag. He smiled at Dong Mei, "I thought you two were two firecrackers. I was afraid you'd start arguing when we met, but I didn't expect you to be so calm in the face of trouble. If it were Ge Jinhua, she'd be furious in a matter of minutes!"
Dong Mei smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say, when Ge Jinhua exploded again. After cursing at Lao Ren, the two of them started pulling each other away.
"Third Aunt, don't worry. This matter has been going smoothly so far and will definitely be resolved satisfactorily." As soon as Ge Jinhua and his wife left, Dong Mei seemed extremely tired. She leaned back on the sofa, half-closed her eyes and rubbed her temples.
"Are you tired? You didn't even take a nap. Why don't you take a nap now?" Dong Mei raised her eyelids and forced a smile.
"I'm fine. I don't sleep much. Will Sister Yanyan and the others come over for dinner tonight?"
"Come." Dong Mei couldn't help but sigh again when Zhou Chuyan was mentioned.
"Then you rest tonight and let me show off my skills to Sister Yanyan!" Zhao Xiaojing deliberately kept her tone relaxed. "Aunt, I'm meeting Sister Yanyan tonight, and I'm going to Suozi's house tomorrow."
"Xiao Su's family? Why are you going to someone else's house during the New Year?" Dong Mei was stunned.
