The Marquis's Residence.
After receiving the letter of understanding, Pang Zhengming returned to report.
Xu Chengyi and Sun Hongchang were overjoyed when they saw the letter of understanding.
"Oh, Attorney Pang, you truly deserve to be called a top lawyer! This is simply a resounding success!" Sun Hongchang was so excited that he couldn't stop smiling, and he didn't hold back his praise.
Xu Chengyi nodded repeatedly, "You've really got a name for me! Very good! The thing I'm most grateful for in my life is sending you to study abroad, and you certainly haven't disappointed me!"
Pang Zhengming smiled modestly: "Your Excellency, you flatter me! I only used a little trick to scare Jiang Tianming, I didn't expect him to actually back down!"
At this moment, Sun Hongchang hurriedly asked, "Attorney Pang, now that we have a letter of understanding, is my son out of danger? Can I bail him out tomorrow?"
Pang Zhengming shook his head. "Director Sun, this letter of understanding has some effect, but it doesn't mean it can exempt you from criminal liability!"
Sun Hongchang asked in surprise, "Then what's the use of this letter of understanding?"
Pang Zhengming quickly explained, "Although this letter of understanding cannot exempt one from criminal liability, it can greatly reduce the liability. For example, if your son is sentenced to 5-10 years, without a letter of understanding, he might be sentenced to 8 or 10 years. With a letter of understanding, he might only be sentenced to 5 or 6 years, and there is a high chance that he will be sentenced to 1-2 years less!"
"I see?" Sun Hongchang suddenly realized, then frowned and said, "So, my son will still be sentenced?"
Pang Zhengming shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true. It mainly depends on whether the prosecution will file a lawsuit! For some minor cases, the prosecution may decide not to prosecute, which is of course the best outcome, and Young Master Sun might not even have a criminal record! However, I'm just a lawyer, and I can't decide what the prosecution does!"
Inspection area?
Sun Hongchang quickly looked at Xu Chengyi and said hurriedly, "My lord, with your connections in Guanzhong, contacting the inspection office shouldn't be difficult, right?"
Xu Chengyi frowned.
He really does have connections in the inspection department.
The current head of the inspection department is the one he pushed up back then.
However, this connection was his trump card in officialdom, and he didn't want to use it unless absolutely necessary.
In addition, the head of this inspection department is currently at a crucial stage of his career advancement and is very likely to be transferred to Yandu (Beijing) to serve as a government official.
Then I'll have another powerful protective umbrella.
If this matter causes any accidents and affects the other party's future, that would be bad.
Seeing his hesitation, Sun Hongchang gritted his teeth and quickly added, "My lord, if you can help me settle this matter, I will give you ten percent of my Sun family's shares!"
Xu Chengyi's eyes lit up.
The Sun family is a top-tier wealthy family in Yandu, and a member of the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce. This 10% shareholding is not something that can be measured in numbers!
So he thought for a moment and reluctantly said, "Alright! In that case, I'll give it a try. I have some dealings with the head of the inspection department; maybe he'll do me a favor!"
Xu Chengyi didn't waste any words and directly took out his phone and dialed a number.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious suite at a five-star hotel, a portly man was grabbing a beautiful woman by the shoulder and riding at full speed.
Unexpectedly, the phone rang suddenly.
He thought his wife was checking up on him, and he was so frightened that he almost threw a javelin.
However, upon seeing the caller ID, he couldn't help but frown, turn around, and answer the phone.
"Hello, Lord Marquis? It's so late, what brings you to call me?"
"Hehe, Fengtao, I wouldn't bother you if it weren't for something urgent! Are you free now?"
The man turned his head and glanced at it.
The woman looked disappointed, silently put on her clothes, and left the room.
Wang Fengtao then smiled and said, "My lord, what is it? Please speak!"
Xu Chengyi quickly recounted Sun Xiaolei's story.
Upon hearing this, Wang Fengtao's brows furrowed deeply: "My lord, you've put me in a difficult position. You know how big this matter has become..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Chengyi quickly said, "Feng Tao, don't worry, I won't let you do anything beyond your capabilities! Firstly, Sun Xiaolei has already had his injuries assessed, and they are classified as intermediate injuries, which is more serious than Jiang Ruoyi's. This case can be defined as a regular fight, and the circumstances aren't that serious! Secondly, we've obtained a letter of understanding from the Sun family, so I think this matter is entirely feasible to handle!"
After hearing this, Wang Fengtao's expression softened somewhat.
"Oh, I see! But the public opinion is really getting out of hand right now. You know, I'm at a crucial time right now, and I'm worried..."
"Don't worry, don't worry! You know, Old Hu from the Propaganda Department is an acquaintance of mine. This public opinion stuff will be suppressed in a couple of days, it won't affect you! Besides, didn't you tell me last time that your wife has allergic rhinitis and is suited to the Mediterranean climate? I have a mansion in the Mediterranean, I'll transfer it to your name later, so when you retire, you can go there to live out your days, haha!"
Wang Fengtao's eyes immediately lit up.
Mediterranean mansion?
That would cost over a hundred million? Who wouldn't be confused by that?
Furthermore, this matter was indeed within his capabilities and did not require him to take on too much risk.
Thinking of this, he quickly smiled and said, "Oh, my lord! Look at me, why are you being so polite! I owe my success to you, don't I? If there's anything I can do to help, I certainly will!"
