Before she could speak, Old Man Shen spoke first: "Lawyer He, this is what's going on. We have a lawsuit to fight. Can we ask you for help? As long as you can win the case, the price can be negotiated. Even if we don't have enough money, we will try our best to help you!"
Lawyer He looked at the family and saw that they were well-dressed, clean and tidy, the two elderly people had kind eyes, and the four children looked well-behaved and sensible. He instinctively developed a liking for them.
He smiled and said, "Let's not talk about the price first. What kind of lawsuit do you want me to help you with? The law firm doesn't have many cases, so I might be able to take your case."
Old Man Shen stood up and said, "Lawyer He, please come over here. I want to talk to you in detail. If you sit there, it will be inconvenient for us to talk."
The man and woman were looking at this side. What they were discussing just now was Shen Jianlin's matter. It was really not appropriate for the old couple to open their mouths like this. If they were not careful, it would cause public outrage, and then the whole family would be cursed.
Seeing that they looked anxious, as if there was something really urgent, Lawyer He thought for a moment, then stood up and walked over to them.
The assistant didn't understand why he suddenly stood up and opened his mouth to speak.
But when he saw him sitting next to Old Man Shen, he knew there must be a case, so he didn't say anything.
Shen Zhiyi and Shen Zhile looked at Lawyer He carefully. Seeing that he was gentle and polite, and seemed easy to talk to, they developed a slight liking for him and placed their hopes on him.
After Lawyer He sat down, he glanced at the family members and then politely said to the elderly couple, "Hello, my name is He Guoxian, how can I help you?"
Old Man Shen glanced at Old Lady Shen, but Old Lady Shen winked at him, signaling him to speak.
So although Old Man Shen felt embarrassed, he still cleared his throat and lowered his voice and said, "Lawyer He, this is the case. The man named Shen in the newspaper happens to be my son. I would like you to help him with the lawsuit. We don't want to see him sentenced to death."
As he spoke, he handed the newspaper to He Guoxian.
He Guoxian was stunned and was very surprised. He didn't expect to encounter such a coincidence. This construction accident has been making a lot of noise these days, and this family turned out to be the family of the main person in charge!
"This..." He Guoxian showed an embarrassed expression on his face.
"Lawyer He, I know this lawsuit is difficult to win. But my son is not that kind of person. He has a very good character since he was a child. If you don't believe me, you can go ask the people in our village. Who doesn't praise him? He is also very filial and loves his wife and children very much. Do you think such a person can be a bad person?"
After Old Man Shen finished speaking, Old Lady Shen followed up by saying, "Yes, yes, he has worked at the construction site for so many years and has never had an accident. This time, he must not have known that his subordinates were cutting corners. If he knew, he would never allow them to continue the construction. So if he is arrested, our family will feel wronged. Lawyer He, you have to help us..."
Seeing two elderly people looking at him with pleading eyes, Lawyer He suddenly felt soft-hearted.
He was silent for two seconds, then sighed and said, "Whether he knows or not, he is still the responsible person. As long as he signs the contract, he has to take responsibility. This is written in black and white."
Old Mrs. Shen's eyes were red again. "So... there is no other way? Jianlin must go to jail or be sentenced to death, right?"
