"Ahem, ahem, actually we're very easy to talk to, and we don't ask for much!"
After exchanging glances with his wife Chen Jingying for a moment, Zhou Quanfu straightened his expression and said seriously, "As long as you give us 500,000 yuan and help us buy an apartment in the city, with renovations and furniture, we can pretend that incident never happened."
"Can!"
Wang Qian actually agreed.
"Brother-in-law!"
Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't help but shout.
Huang Bo and Yao Xishui also cast strange glances at them.
But actually, Zhou Quanfu and Chen Jingying also found it hard to believe their ears.
"Wang Qian, did you not hear me clearly?"
Zhou Quanfu repeated, "I'm talking about 500,000 yuan, plus a fully furnished house."
"I heard you clearly!"
Wang Qian nodded. "As long as everyone agrees, there won't be any problems!"
Zhou Yuanyuan finally couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward, saying, "Brother-in-law, these things have nothing to do with you, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Qian waved his hand to interrupt him.
Then, Wang Qian looked at Huang Bo, who also looked surprised, and said, "Why don't you talk to them?"
"Should I tell them?" Huang Bo was a little confused.
He could tell that Zhou Quanfu's exorbitant demands, which Wang Qian readily agreed to, must have ulterior motives.
But he couldn't figure out what Wang was up to.
"Aren't you Zhou Yuanyuan's lawyer now?"
Wang Qian said meaningfully, "Why don't you talk to Zhou Yuanyuan's parents now and tell them what legal responsibilities they need to bear?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Bo immediately understood.
He smiled slyly, sat down opposite Zhou Quanfu and Chen Jingying, and said leisurely, "Zhou Yuanyuan's parents, right?"
"Who are you?"
Zhou Quanfu increasingly felt that things were not going well.
He didn't really expect Wang Qian to agree to the outrageous conditions he just proposed.
He was just thinking that if he set the price high at the beginning, he could gain more leverage in the subsequent bargaining.
But when he made such outrageous demands, and Wang Qian actually agreed to them all, he felt that something was wrong.
Now that this young man is sitting down and talking to them again, he has an even stronger feeling that he has been deceived.
"I am Huang Bo, the lawyer hired by Zhou Yuanyuan!"
Huang Bo introduced himself and then got straight to the point, "According to the preliminary information I have, you abused Zhou Yuanyuan since she was a child, and even used her as a wager to lose to a cripple named Song Dabao. Later, you even sold her to human traffickers, right?"
"You, you're talking complete nonsense!"
Zhou Quanfu panicked instantly, stood up abruptly from his chair, pointed at Huang Bo and angrily scolded, "I am her father, what I did was just to educate her."
Chen Jingying also realized something was wrong, and echoed with a fierce but weak tone, "Yes, we didn't abuse Yuanyuan, nor did we use her as a bet. Don't make false accusations!"
"At this point, your attempts to argue will be useless!"
Huang Bo shook his head and said slowly, "I'm a lawyer, and I know more about legal matters than anyone else!"
“At that time, Zhou Yuanyuan was only a high school sophomore, seventeen years old, and a minor. But you forced her to drop out of school and marry that man named Song Dabao. She refused, so you tied her up and sent her to his bridal chamber.”
Do you know how many years you'll be sentenced to for kidnapping a minor for marriage?
Zhou Quanfu and Chen Jingying became increasingly frightened as they listened.
That was exactly the effect Huang Bo wanted. His voice suddenly rose, "Any one of the things you've done could get you sentenced to life imprisonment!"
"You're talking complete nonsense!"
Zhou Quanfu was both shocked and furious, but he seemed unwilling to argue with Huang Bo. He immediately glared fiercely at Zhou Yuanyuan, "You brat, how dare you team up with outsiders to threaten us? Have you lost your conscience?"
"You still have the nerve to talk to me about conscience?"
Zhou Yuanyuan was also enraged and rebuked him with resentment: "Where was your conscience when you abused me countless times and tied me up to sell me to them?"
"I...I..."
Zhou Quanfu was speechless.
But not wanting to be subdued, he raised his voice and shouted, "Anyway, you're my daughter, so you have to listen to us."
Without a word, he grabbed Zhou Yuanyuan's wrist and said, "Come with me. I won't let you stay here any longer."
Wang Qian frowned and quickly gave Yang Shenglong a wink.
Yang Shenglong understood immediately, rushed over and blocked Zhou Quanfu's path, "Dare to use violence here? You try it!"
Yang Shenglong was burly and fierce when he got angry. Standing in front of Zhou Quanfu, he looked like a giant, exuding a sense of oppression.
"What...what do you want to do?"
Zhou Quanfu, though outwardly fierce, said weakly, "We live in a society governed by law now; hitting someone is illegal."
“This is a private dormitory. You caused trouble here and tried to hurt my employees. I only hit you in self-defense. It’s not illegal,” Wang Qian said at the right time.
Zhou Quanfu still looked indignant.
At this moment, Chen Jingying reached out and tugged at his sleeve, lowering her voice to say, "There are too many of them, let's go. We can find a way to settle the score with Yuanyuan later."
"good!"
Zhou Quanfu knew this was not a place to stay for long. He snorted coldly, released Zhou Yuanyuan's hand, and prepared to walk around Yang Shenglong and leave.
At this moment, Huang Bo spoke again, "I have printed out the lawsuit against you. If nothing unexpected happens, you will receive a court notice tomorrow. If you do not go, the court will notify the police to arrest you."
