Jiang Ning also bought the food at this time.
Seeing Zhou Jinpeng come out, Jiang Ning said with a smile, "Grandpa Zhou, come over here, it's just time for us to eat. I also bought some liquor. We don't have anything planned for tomorrow, so you can have a few drinks with Grandpa tonight."
Looking at Jiang Ning, Zhou Jinpeng's nose tingled, and he burst into tears again. "Ningning, thank you, thank you and your grandfather for coming to find me."
He never expected this.
At this critical moment, it was Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Ning who found him and gave him warmth and hope.
True friendship is revealed in times of adversity.
It was at this moment that Zhou Jinpeng realized the true value of those words.
His nephews were nice to him because of his compensation money from the demolition; only Jiang Ning and Grandpa Jiang were kind to him without any ulterior motives.
He really regrets it now.
I deeply regret it.
Jiang Ning's words were clearly well-intentioned and meant to help him, but he ignored them completely, taking her kindness for granted.
At this moment, Zhou Jinpeng wished he could slap himself a few times.
“Old Zhou, stop crying,” Grandpa Jiang immediately handed over tissues. “Don’t you think about how many years we’ve been friends? Besides, you helped me a lot back in City A! I haven’t been able to contact you for so many days, how could I not come to you?”
"Old Jiang, thank you, thank you!"
Zhou Jinpeng hugged Grandpa Jiang and burst into tears again.
For quite a while.
His emotions gradually calmed down.
Jiang Ning also placed the food she had just bought on the table.
The three of them ate and chatted.
Zhou Jinpeng recounted everything that had happened in the past few days.
Upon hearing what had happened, Grandpa Jiang was furious. "Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous! Are these four even human? They're four ingrates! No matter what, you're their uncle, how could they treat you like this?"
They took the money and then turned their backs on us!
How could there be such despicable creatures in the world?
Zhou Jinpeng wiped away his tears. "It's no use saying all this now. It's all my fault for misjudging people."
At this point, Zhou Jinpeng looked at Jiang Ning and said, "Ningning, I'm actually quite ashamed. When you advised me that human nature is complicated, I confidently said that our Zhou family would not produce bad offspring!"
As he finished speaking, Zhou Jinpeng's face was full of self-deprecating smiles.
“Grandpa Zhou, once bitten, twice shy. Since it’s all in the past, there’s no point in bringing it up again.” Jiang Ning took a sip of her drink to moisten her throat. “I just want to ask you one question now.”
“Go ahead and ask,” Zhou Jinpeng said.
Jiang Ning placed the beverage bottle on the table. "Do you want to get this money back?"
We want it back?
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jinpeng's eyes widened, and he asked incredulously, "Can...can we get it back?"
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "During a relationship, the money the man spends on the woman can be reclaimed unless it's explicitly stated as a voluntary gift. Your money is no exception! After all, the premise of you giving them money was that they would support you. Now, not only have they failed to fulfill their support obligations, but they've also kicked you out. They must return every single penny to you!"
Zhou Jinpeng transferred the money to his four nephews via bank transfer.
If you have the transfer record, you have a chance to get your money back!
“But what if they don’t give it to us?” Zhou Jinpeng sighed. “After all, the money is already in their hands.”
Are they willing to give back the fat they've already eaten?
"They won't give it to us?" Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow slightly. "Then we'll go to the court to apply for the freezing of their assets. Once we win the case, they'll be forced to return it."
"So, there's really a chance I can get my money back?" Seeing that there was still hope of getting his money back, Zhou Jinpeng felt a bit more alive.
Jiang Ning nodded slightly. "However, I need to confirm something with you now."
"What's the problem?" Zhou Jinpeng asked.
Jiang Ning continued, "Once we file a lawsuit, it will be like tearing down the pretense of friendship between you and your nephew. There will be no possibility of repairing your relationship! And they will also face all sorts of problems because of losing this windfall. So, are you really determined to sue them?"
Zhou Jinpeng longed for family affection.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have trusted his nephews so much.
Although he has already been hurt once, he was also betrayed before, so there are some things that need to be clarified.
Jiang Ning didn't want to end up working for nothing.
Busy until the very end.
He went back to living happily with his nephews.
What's the point of this?
"Sue them! Of course we'll sue them!" Zhou Jinpeng naturally understood what Jiang Ning meant. "Ningning, don't worry, I've truly come to my senses this time! Not only will I sue them, but I'll also sever all ties with those four ingrates! From now on, I'll have nothing to do with them!"
Zhou Jinpeng felt a chill run down his spine whenever he thought about what he had experienced these past few days.
What about family ties?
Bloodline!
They're all fake.
It's all fake.
He now only feels hatred for those four ingrates!
Only Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Ning are the people who are truly good to him.
“Okay,” Jiang Ning nodded slightly. “I’m relieved to hear that. I’ll contact a lawyer right away. You just need to cooperate with the lawyer.”
Zhou Jinpeng looked at Jiang Ning and said very seriously, "Ningning, I'll do whatever you say now! I'll do whatever you tell me to do!"
After finishing her meal, Jiang Ning went back to her room.
Grandpa Jiang and Zhou Jinpeng were drinking and chatting in the room.
The two drank until late into the night before going to sleep.
Because this kind of thing needs to be resolved quickly, Yang Xiaodie took a plane and came the next day.
Jiang Ning took Yang Xiaodie to meet Zhou Jinpeng.
Yang Xiaodie extended her hand to shake hands with Zhou Jinpeng. "Mr. Zhou, would it be convenient for us to talk privately? I need to understand the whole process in detail so that I can better help you win this lawsuit."
“Yes, Attorney Yang.” Zhou Jinpeng nodded.
The two entered the hotel's conference room.
After learning about the whole incident, the two left the meeting room.
Jiang Ning looked at Yang Xiaodie, "Attorney Yang, what are the chances of winning this case?"
Yang Xiaodie smiled and said, "Miss Sun, as long as what Mr. Zhou said is true, then we have about a 90% chance of winning this lawsuit."
Lawyers like to leave themselves a way out.
When Yang Xiaodie said she had a 90% win rate, she was actually saying she had a 100% win rate.
Upon hearing this answer, Grandpa Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Jinpeng is already this age.
He really needs this pension.
Zhou Jinpeng was also very excited: "Really, Attorney Yang? There's a 90% chance of winning this case? I swear to God, everything I've said to you is true! If there's a single lie, may I be struck by lightning!"
