At this point, the Zhao family was not stupid. Zhao Gui clenched his fists and said, âAn Lan, tell us the truth. Are you deliberately targeting us? I remember that our Zhao family has no grudges with you.â
Zhu Wentao clenched his fists and coughed. He nodded and said, âLawyer An, you know the Zhao family very well. I think we should be more honest.â
An Lan smiled slightly and tapped her fingers on the table, âRecently, not only did those who had been owed money look for me, but there are also other reasons that people look for me to sue you. Letâs not talk about it. Itâs probably because your Zhao family has done too many immoral things. Other than your son Zhao Pingâs old affairs, there are also quite a few things about you, Zhao Gui. How should I put it? Like father, like son. This sentence is really not wrong.â
Zhao Guiâs expression changed. He slammed the table and the coffee spilled out. âIâm warning you. Be more polite and if you force me, Iâll do anything.â
âDonât think that Iâm scared.â An Lan hooked her finger at the security guard beside her. The security guardâs tall figure took a step forward. Zhao Gui felt a chill in his heart. People like him always bullied the weak and feared the strong.
âMr. Zhao, this isnât my first day dealing with people like you, and itâs not my last.â
An Lanâs expression was calm and indifferent, âIâm serious about talking to you, but you want to fight with me. It seems like you really donât want to continue talking, so I can only accept all the lawsuits. Donât even think about threatening me. Look at the people around me. Can you beat them? But as long as you fight, even a little, Iâll make you regret it. Maybe you donât understand that lawyers are much harder to deal than with judges, because we only care about money and donât care about reputation.â
Zhao Guiâs expression changed.
An Lan stood up. âYour familyâs incident at the court has caused a stir. Iâve heard about it too. You can try and see if you can escape unscathed.â
Zhu Wentao hurriedly stood up. âZhao Gui, if you really make a move, then I really canât help you. When the time comes, youâll have to pay back the money and the house. Youâll also have to go to jail.â
âLawyer Zhu, whose side are you on?â Yu Fang was anxious.
Zhu Wentao said unhappily, âIâm speaking on behalf of you. Iâm not asking you to threaten. This isnât your small village, itâs a place where the law is enforced.â
Zhao Guiâs second brother quickly stood up. âLawyer An, there must be a reason why youâre scheming against the Zhao family. Since youâre willing to talk, then thereâs room for negotiation.â
âThere are still smart people in your family.â An Lan smiled. âThen Iâll be frank. When you were at the court, Zhao Gui, you threatened to jump off a building because you were instigated by a lawyer named He Mingqian.â
Zhao Gui was stunned, and Yu Fang came to a realization. âI get it. Are you related to that Judge? Are you here to take revenge on us on purpose?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âShh.â An Lanâs index finger pressed against her lips. âDonât think Chief Judge Xu is that bad. Iâm here because you guys are together with the person I hate the most in my life.â
âI donât know what youâre talking about,â Zhao Gui said angrily. âWe havenât even met He Mingqian.â
âThe person who called you away at the entrance of the court is He Mingqianâs assistant.â An Lan narrowed her eyes, âZhao Gui, donât play games with me. When I talk to you, Iâm patient. When I donât want to talk to you, thereâs no turning back. Donât be burdened with debts for the rest of your life because of an irrelevant person, even to the extent of not having a place to stay. You donât have a son. No one will care about you when youâre old.â
