Although Jiang Yilai could tell that Qiu Meng still had something to say, she saw no need to ask since the other party wasn't speaking.
Qiu Meng walked to the door, turned around and saw that Jiang Yilai was already engrossed in her work, so she didn't say anything more and had to leave first.
Jiang Yilai only lifted the curtain after the footsteps had faded away, shrugged, and didn't take it seriously.
A short while later, the sound of a woman crying and screaming came from outside, and then the door to Jiang Yilai's office was knocked open.
"Mr. Jiang, there's a lady who's very emotional and wants you to be her defense lawyer."
Jiang Yilai asked curiously, "What's going on? Did the other party provide any explanation?"
Zhang Yue shook her head: "The other party was too excited to explain clearly, but said that they insisted on seeing you."
Usually, the people who come here specifically to see her are dealing with difficult cases, and Jiang Yilai doesn't waste any time, immediately following her out.
As soon as Jiang Yilai came out, she saw the woman clutching her chest in grief, her sorrowful expression affecting everyone present.
Attorney Zhou patted her on the shoulder and called out, "Don't worry, Sister, our General Manager Jiang is here."
Upon hearing this, the woman quickly looked up and saw Jiang Yilai walking towards her. She rushed forward and grabbed her hand.
Jiang Yilai's heart skipped a beat. Although most people who come to the law firm have some emotions, it is rare to see someone as impulsive as her.
Jiang Yilai reassured her, "Madam, please calm down. Let's talk about it in the reception room."
Then he looked at Zhang Yue and said, "Prepare a glass of warm water for this lady."
The woman gripped Jiang Yilai's hand tightly, as if trying to make her deeply feel her pain.
She cried out in anguish, "Attorney Jiang, you must help me! My daughter died so tragically, I want them to pay the price!"
The other party spoke quickly and urgently, so Jiang Yilai had no choice but to lead her to the reception room to find out what was going on.
"Tell me what happened first, then I can help you."
The woman sobbed twice, then choked up again as she opened her mouth. Her angry yet helpless eyes made Jiang Yilai anxious.
As a mother herself, Jiang Yilai could understand this pain.
She personally handed her the water and gently patted her shoulder.
"Please accept my condolences. What we need to do now is to seek justice for the deceased. I need to understand the whole matter and collect evidence, and your cooperation is required in all of these processes."
Jiang Yilai patiently comforted the woman, who covered her face and wept bitterly, failing to speak several times.
Jiang Yilai sat quietly opposite her and said considerately, "Calm down first. I'll wait here for you until you can communicate normally, then we can talk."
The woman gave her a grateful look, then covered her face to calm herself down.
Ten minutes later, the woman calmed down and handed over her ID card.
“Attorney Jiang, my name is Sun Ping. The deceased is my daughter, Xu Yunqing. Her father passed away when she was five years old, and I raised her single-handedly with great difficulty.”
Jiang Yilai has also raised a child alone and knows how difficult it is, so she fully understands the other person's feelings.
Sun Ping sobbed, “My daughter has been sensible since she was little. Maybe because she didn’t have a father, she was teased when she was young, which made her a little introverted, but she is really well-behaved.”
Jiang Yilai stepped forward, patted her on the shoulder, and listened attentively to her story.
"My daughter studied hard so as not to worry me, and finally got into a prestigious university. She is currently a senior at a well-known company and is doing an internship. She is the pride of our entire family."
When Jiang Yilai heard her mention these things, her eyes were shining; she truly hoped that none of these misfortunes had happened.
