"My son, what will your father and I do after you leave? Woo woo."
"Fuck, get up and stop crying."
An old woman was kneeling on the ground in the funeral home, crying her heart out, and her husband went to support her.
The two men looked old, their faces full of frost, and their hands were full of wrinkles. The staff couldn't help but shed tears as they watched, but they had seen too many such life and death. They could only say: "The dead cannot be resurrected. Please accept my condolences."
Zhang Wenheng watched from a distance, frowning: "Is this the victim's family member?"
Xihe's gaze fell on the panicked child standing nearby and nodded, "Exactly. This incident resulted in two deaths and one injury. Fan Zhuang's family doesn't want their child's death to be in vain and has already planned to appeal. This is Fan He's family; they're all from the same village."
Fan Zhuang, Fan He and Zhang Dahai are all innocent victims. In their previous lives, the families of the three parties were used by the enemy to deal with Cheng Que.
Cheng Que does have an unshirkable responsibility for the occurrence of this incident, but the person who deserves to die the most is the person who caused the accident. In their eyes, human life is insignificant and cannot be worth the benefits at all.
These victims were only noticed when Cheng Que was first dealt with.
When Cheng Que was imprisoned and the Cheng Group collapsed, they became abandoned pawns and didn't even receive much compensation in the end.
Zhang Dahai is paralyzed on one side of his body. Jiang Lan has to take care of him while paying for their children's education. Fan He's parents, the couple are in their sixties this year. After their son died, his wife ran away, leaving behind only an eight or nine-year-old grandson. Their life is very difficult.
As for Fan Zhuang...
Xihe took out the information and found that Fan Zhuang was the youngest of the three, only nineteen years old this year.
Fan Zhuang's parents passed away, and he lived with his brother and sister-in-law since he was a child. However, life was not easy, and he started working before finishing junior high school. This time, his brother and sister-in-law did not really want to seek justice in the appeal, but just for the compensation.
Zhang Wenheng looked at her and said, "I can help Cheng Que, but Miss Wen, you should be aware of my principles."
"I, Zhang Wenheng, will never do anything that harms the world and is against morality!"
"You're well-informed. You know I'm still brooding over my sister's death, and you know I became a lawyer so I could one day bring the murderer who hurt my sister to justice. But if I turn around and hurt others because of my sister's death, then what's the difference between me and those beasts?"
"Ms. Wen, do you know why I don't accept commercial cases? Because..."
"Because we are dirty and act dirty."
Xihe smiled and said, "Am I right?"
Zhang Wenheng pursed his lips and said nothing, but his chest rising and falling showed that he was not calm at the moment.
Xihe pulled out all the documents from her bag and handed them to him. "This is the compensation Cheng Que and I are giving them. It's all stamped and legally binding." Her eyes were smiling, yet serious. "Lawyer Zhang, you may not trust me, but you can trust the law."
Zhang Wenheng's gaze fell from her face to the file bag. He took it, turned around and strode towards the two elderly people.
Xihe stood where he was and did not follow.
Buzz buzz buzz,
The phone vibrates.
Xihe picked up the phone and answered, "Hello, are you ready? Well, then it's three o'clock in the afternoon."
About an hour later.
Zhang Wenheng returned in a state of disarray, his left cheek flushed and his straight suit wrinkled. "Alright, are we going to Fan Zhuang's place next?"
Xihe stared at his face: "There's no need to go there... Do you want to apply ice?"
Zhang Wenheng raised his hand and touched it, indicating that there was nothing wrong.
The car stopped in the parking lot. The two walked to the side of the car. Zhang Wenheng opened the driver's seat and asked for the location before starting the car. The two chatted about the case all the way. Finally, the car stopped at Xinrui Technology. A man with glasses and a briefcase strode over and said, "Ms. Wen."
Xihe nodded and went into the office building with him. Zhang Wenheng followed subconsciously.
The company was clean and tidy, and the staff were all leisurely drinking tea and chatting. Xihe glanced over, but the man with glasses didn't notice and was still reporting the situation. "We've invited all the shareholders here as you requested, but President Xiang is still in Sanya and can't come back for the time being... The company's annual report and the latest quarterly report have been compiled."
He pushed the frame of his glasses and said, "The shareholders are all waiting in the conference room now."
Xihe nodded: "Well, thank you for your hard work, Secretary Han."
bite,
The elevator opens.
The three of them walked out.
Secretary Han led the way: "The meeting room is this way." He reached out and pushed open the door.
Squeak——
The noisy meeting room suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned to look over.
Xi He walked past Secretary Han and walked straight to the president's seat. He stopped and looked at the shareholders, all confused. His eyes curved. "Hello, everyone. Let me introduce myself. My name is Wen Sheng, Wen Tan's daughter, and the largest shareholder of Xinrui Technology."
"Next, I have something to announce to everyone."
He raised his chin towards Secretary Han.
Secretary Han came to his senses and immediately opened his briefcase to distribute the documents one by one.
The shareholders immediately picked up the documents, only to be shocked and exclaim, "You want to sell the company?!"
Xihe nodded. "That's right. Due to poor management, the company has been in the red for the past few years, and I've even had to pay them money." Seeing that everyone was a little uncomfortable, he continued, "With all the news flying around right now, I'm sure you all understand Xinrui's current situation. Even if I don't sell, it will declare bankruptcy in a few days. Therefore, I hope you will seriously consider the equity transfer agreement in your hands."
The shareholders who originally wanted to refute were suddenly speechless.
As shareholders, they knew the company's situation very well. Father Wen was not good at management. If it weren't for the Cheng Group's support, the company would have gone bankrupt long ago. Now that the Cheng Group was in danger and the president was in jail, could Xinrui still operate?
They looked at each other and understood what was in each other's eyes.
"Ahem," Mr. Li, who was wearing a gold ring, coughed lightly and said, "What Niece Wen said makes sense. After all, no one wants to see things develop to this point. In that case..."
Staring at the equity transfer document, his face darkened at the mere few million dollars.
Gritting his teeth, he said, “What do you mean, Niece Wen?”
Xihe didn't say anything, but just nodded to Secretary Han. Secretary Han had no choice but to endure the fierce looks of the shareholders and send out another document.
Xihe smiled faintly: "You all borrowed so much money from the company, it's better to pay it back today than today."
More than a dozen shareholders stared at Xihe with tense faces.
Xi He raised an eyebrow. "It's only natural to pay back debts. What's wrong? You guys don't want to admit it?" The shareholders were silent. She nodded and suddenly looked at Zhang Wenheng standing at the door. "Lawyer Zhang, you heard everything. Tell me, how should this situation be judged?"
Zhang Wenheng: “…”
