What's wrong with this lawyer?!

"Let the bullets fly for a moment" – what does that even mean? Wan Ting, you look dumbfounded. Big Boss, are you trying to act cool?

Tang Fangjing didn't explain, just replied, "Some things don't need to be said. Those who get it, get it; those who don't, wouldn't understand even if I explained."

Li Wanting: "..."

After hanging up the phone, Old Tang sighed. This generation's young people are not up to scratch. Isn't this obvious slander and defamation?

But that's right, these days, there are really few who would actually bother to take defamation seriously. Those few who occasionally do usually end up being tormented by the legal cases...

It truly can't be summarized by just the word "difficult".

Nevertheless, as they say, ask and you shall receive. Thinking of getting a case to make some money, and indeed, a case comes along. Although it would be tough, it doesn't matter.

At that moment, in the property management office, President Hou casually asked with a cigarette in his mouth, "How is it going, Old Bai? How have things been these past few days?"

After listening to Manager Bai's report earlier, President Hou was so angry that he smashed a couple of teacups.

This was completely different from his plan. The other side clearly didn't have much money, and wasn't even a lawyer, so why did they absolutely have to set up this community committee?

He had inquired through channels about other property companies as well, and none had been in contact with someone surnamed Tang. He racked his brain but still couldn't figure out what Tang was after.

As for the legal fees after setting up the community committee... that's barely any money at all!

Therefore, President Hou, who had lost face, directly instructed Manager Bai to act, of course Bai himself wouldn't do it personally, just find someone to handle it. Nowadays, there's no shortage of people who need money.

At this time, Manager Bai laughed and said, "President Hou, just like the last time, many people in the complex are already dissatisfied with him, and some owners have already gone to the community and the street office to report him."

"Under such circumstances, even Secretary Tian wouldn't allow him to become a member of the preparatory group."

"That's good enough, we just wait for the results," President Hou said with a natural expression.

Perhaps to others, these tactics might seem too despicable, not something a respectable property management company would resort to, a bit too outrageous. However, don't think too highly of these companies.

Cutting off water, electricity, or internet might have worked years ago, but now, if a property management company does that, they're asking for trouble from the heavens.

Denying entry into the complex? That guy didn't even have a car, and you can't just arbitrarily prevent owners from entering their own complex – that would bring both the housing management authorities and the police station to your doorstep.

Now, the street office has already issued an announcement, but that doesn't mean they will take full responsibility for this matter.

The preparatory group will have members from the street office, community service center, police station, construction unit, and other entities, but in the end, it still needs the owners' involvement, the others are just to facilitate, and the leader from the street office is there to guide.

Now, the owner who initiated the preparatory efforts has already been reported by the complex residents in various ways, so obviously, this person certainly can't continue the preparation.

And if someone surnamed Tang isn't around, the other owners simply won't take on the responsibility. This will lead to the matter being dropped, and no further mentions of it will arise – a perfect plan!

"However, the other party is in the late stages of cancer, and we also have to guard against him becoming desperate. So, go and talk to him again, hint vaguely that we can let him have some benefits if that's what he wants," President Hou finally said.

He didn't believe in a world where people are motivated by nothing, where there are such lofty people.

Business is also about being cautious. If there is even the slightest chance, nobody wants to get into a conflict with someone in the late stages of cancer.

However, an hour later, President Hou received a call from Manager Bai.

"What? He won't budge no matter what, and he even said if he has to die, he'll still get the community committee set up? I'm really *** pissed off!"

President Hou smashed the new teacup on his desk to the floor in anger. You've only moved in a few days ago, dammit; my property management hasn't provoked or offended you, so why this "has to set up the community committee even if it kills me"? Why!

All for some bullshit about fairness and justice?

"Then double your efforts; I refuse to believe it. I've been in this complex for so many years, I won't let you turn it upside down!"

Manager Bai shook his head after hanging up the phone. In his view, the company had really given a lot of face already, looking to maintain peace, yet here they were, not letting it go.

He immediately made another call.

"Xiao Kong, it's me, Manager Bai. I just got word from President Hou, intensify the efforts, yes, he's insistent on forming the community committee. Get it done quickly."

On the other end of the phone, Kong Xiufang hung up and started using her phone again.

She had written the online article before. She hadn't done it for any particular reason, just posted it and got ten thousand yuan from Manager Bai.

People say that older folks care about this or that, but young people actually care even less about these things. With so many people online, who would know it was she who posted it, especially since she didn't use her own WeChat account.

Such easy money not to be made is money wasted!

These days, who doesn't understand the law? She followed many legal bloggers online and believed she had gained legal knowledge, paying no mind to these issues.

With various maneuvers, the number of shares in her Moments was steadily increasing.

At home in Yuefu Residential Complex, Tang Fangjing was playing with his phone when Manager Bai unexpectedly called again, saying something like it would be better for everyone if he gave up earlier.

He probably thought that was a conscience thing to say, but he was just waiting for the number of shares to reach a certain figure, not knowing what these people were waiting for.

Time quickly moved to the next day, and Tang Fangjing was getting ready to head to the law firm. After all, a few interns had been working like oxen and horses for him for days; it was time to teach them something substantial.

But before he could leave, his phone rang again.

"Hello, Secretary Tian, ah, something's come up? Alright, I'm on my way now."

Secretary Tian had called again, so he definitely had to make the trip.

Soon after arriving at Secretary Tian's community office, Tang Fangjing discovered it wasn't just Secretary Tian there as he entered.

"Old Tang's here. Come on, let me introduce you. This is Director Liu Zhongjun from Lushan Road Subdistrict, also the head of the preparatory group for the Yuefu Residential Complex homeowners' association."

"Director Liu, hello," Tang Fangjing greeted as he stepped forward.

Director Liu's hair was reminiscent of a Mediterranean style, clearly an old-fashioned grassroots kind of guy. He looked at Tang Fangjing and said, "Old Tang, right? I'm here today to discuss something with you. We were just about to announce the preparatory group's results."

"However, many homeowners from your complex have come to the subdistrict office to report that you have some issues. As a legal professional, you should understand the situation."

Tang Fangjing maintained a professional smile, "I'm aware of the article on Moments. It's okay, I'll step down from the preparation now."

Under such circumstances, don't expect the subdistrict office to step out and clarify things for you; that's not their job. Being reported, you just step down and handle it.

However, Secretary Tian had a good impression of Tang Fangjing and felt that she was responsible for getting him involved, so after thinking it over, she still spoke up, "Old Tang, if possible, the community could also conduct an investigation..."

Yet before Secretary Tian could finish speaking, she was interrupted as Tang Fangjing said with a smile, "No need, no need, Secretary Tian. You also have a tough job; I can handle my own affairs."

After finishing his statement, a look of curiosity appeared on Deputy Director Liu's face. This young man was interesting; the community had offered to help clarify the situation, and he had outright refused. Given that now stepping down from the preparatory group wouldn't clear the matter.

In the complex now, his reputation was already in tatters...

It wasn't feasible for the story spreading through Moments to reach all homeowners, but because he was distributing eggs at the complex's gate every day, everyone knew him.

Let him be for now. Deputy Director Liu turned his head and said, "Secretary Tian, please contact the other homeowners."

Ten minutes later, Zhao Ruixia's voice came through the phone, "What? Lawyer Tang has stepped down? Then what do we do... I'm busy with work and can't be running around all the time."

After the desire for revenge had passed, life had to go on. So, hearing the need for frequent visits, she lost interest.

The same conversation happened several times, and after the calls, Secretary Tian realized only Old Qian and Old Wang were willing to come. Thus, the matter couldn't go ahead.

It had to be postponed.

...

Tang Fangjing didn't bother with anything else. The number of shares was enough. Without hesitation, he bought a ticket to Shenzhen— for the article published on the WeChat subscription account, he'd certainly have to confront Penguin.

Of course, before boarding the plane, he still had to let Old Song know.

The community stepping forward to clarify wasn't of much use; the common people would only believe what they saw. Since that was the case, it was time to let everyone have a good look.
