Chapter 180: Owe Favors
Liu Lan came to the piano room building again. This time she took the elevator to a higher floor. The upper floors were the piano rooms for the violin department. Tang Tu's private piano room was in one of them.
When they reached the door of a piano room with the word "Private" written on it, Tang Tu heard her footsteps and opened the door without waiting for her to knock.
When she saw the man in front of her, Liu Lan felt a little dazed. After she finished her part-time filming job in February, she had not seen Tang Tu again. Three months had passed in a flash.
Tang Tu was still as handsome as ever. His beauty was always very ostentatious, a kind of noble ostentation. He appeared gentle and elegant on the surface, but deep down he looked down on ordinary people.
But now, after seeing him again after three months' absence, Liu Lan felt that he seemed to have changed a little. Not in his appearance, but in the feeling he gave Liu Lan, as if he had restrained all his sharpness and become introverted and mature, and he looked much colder and even more difficult to approach.
He smiled faintly at Liu Lan and said, "Come in and talk."
Liu Lan walked in and Tang Tu closed the door without locking it.
There was a table and a chair in the piano room, and on the table was a violin case. The case was open, and inside lay a violin with a shiny and gorgeous wooden surface, which must have been worth a lot of money.
Tang Tu asked Liu Lan to sit down, but Liu Lan shook her head.
...
...
"I'll just stand there, it's okay."
Tang Tu did not force her. He looked at the face in front of him that he had been thinking about day and night, suppressed his thoughts about her, and said, "I probably know everything about your father."
"How did you know?" This was why Liu Lan agreed to meet Tang Tu. She had to find out what was going on.
"I hired a very famous lawyer to file a civil lawsuit against Qiao Xin and Zhang Daqiang. The lawyer's name is Li Shuhua."
Liu Lan blocked the name Tang Tu on Weibo, and she turned a blind eye to all content related to Tang Tu on Weibo. It was not that she had any big opinion of Tang Tu, but during that period of time, if Liu Lan had not blocked him, she would have seen netizens gossiping about her and Tang Tu over and over again every day when she opened Weibo, which was very annoying.
But from fans and Li Xiaoru, she already knew about Zhang Daqiang and Qiao Xin being arrested. Qiao Xin had flirted with her before, and forced her to drink at the New Year's Eve dinner, which was enough to prove that this person had bad intentions, so Liu Lan was not surprised that he would do something disgusting like peeping into Tang Tu's privacy.
Tang Tu asked, "The lawyer your father hired is named Sun, right?"
Liu Lan nodded.
"Lawyer Sun called my lawyer the day before yesterday and talked about your father's case. I happened to be there at the time."
Liu Lan frowned. She didn’t understand why Lawyer Sun told Tang Tu’s lawyer about this. Wasn’t this her family’s privacy?
How could she know Lawyer Sun's good intentions? Sun Yiyi was just a civilian lawyer and Wei Ying was just a grassroots judge. Although they both had some connections in the judicial system, they did not have enough power to promote the progress of Liu Chengyu's case.
After the procuratorate approved the arrest of Liu Chengyu, the entire case came to a standstill.
The court deliberately delayed the progress because the leader of Liu Chengyu's former unit had a good relationship with their leader in private. He had made arrangements so that Liu Chengyu could not be convicted. Even if he could not keep Liu Chengyu's job, he had to keep Liu Chengyu's status as a cadre.
But it is a fact that Liu Chengyu killed someone while driving under the influence. The settlement agreement submitted by Lawyer Sun is timely. Theoretically, even with the settlement agreement, Liu Chengyu can be given a lighter punishment, but it is impossible for him to not spend a day in jail, let alone keep his cadre status. The procuratorate is holding on to this point and is determined not to give in.
The biggest headache for the court now is how to give Liu Chengyu a legitimate reason so that he does not have to bear criminal responsibility.
During this period, the inspection team is conducting a strict investigation of the judicial system. No one wants to be caught at this time. The consequences of such things being exposed will be very serious.
As a result, the court officials passed the buck to each other, delayed the case again and again, and deceived Zhang Pei and her daughter by saying that it was just going through the procedures.
In the entire capital, perhaps the only lawyer who dares and is able to urge these officials to act faster is Li Shuhua.
That's why Sun Yiyi called Li Shuhua and asked him to help.
In fact, Li Shuhua refused at that time. How much is Sun Yiyi's face worth? Why should he help him? The so-called connections are all about mutual interests. Sun Yiyi's level is too low and can't bring any benefits to Li Shuhua. Naturally, Li Shuhua will not care about him.
