Chapter 79: Chapter 67 Turns Out You Didn't Know I've Gone Mad



It was work hours, and there were some lawyers in the law firm at the time. Hearing the commotion, they all looked over, curiosity written on the faces of the younger lawyers.

As for Old Song, he immediately walked to the side and pulled out his phone as he did so.

"Hello, I need to report a disturbance at Tengda Law Firm. Someone\'s here causing trouble!"

Old Song, a wily old fox, had seen it all. Right when Tang Fangjing took on the case, he had said that this sort of case could likely run into trouble.

Being a lawyer was sometimes really vexing. Take divorce cases, for instance. When a woman commits adultery and is too ashamed to show her face, she hires a lawyer to engage in so-called "negotiations" with the man.

They want an equal split of the house, a certain amount of money, and so on...

In such scenarios, is the man in the mood to talk about this? The fact that he hasn\'t drawn a knife already shows he\'s pretty calm.

And yet, some lawyers, clueless as they are, start off by lecturing the man about the law...

So, when Old Song runs into these sorts of situations, his first reaction is to call the police—the police station is less than a few hundred meters away, so officers would arrive very quickly on foot.

Miss Xiao Yan similarly took cover to the side, though her face showed worry. After thinking it over, she took out her phone and began recording a video.

After all, she was a professional lawyer herself and immediately noticed that the angle of the camera at the entrance wasn\'t great. It might not capture everything comprehensively, so she covertly began seeking a good angle to film.

As for Tang Fangjing, he frowned slightly before saying, "President Lei, calm down. How exactly have I pressured you?"

The other party was clearly agitated, and Tang Fangjing didn\'t want to waste his energy here, so he tried to stabilize President Lei\'s emotions first.

"So what if I shout? Damn it, none of you lawyers are good! You froze my company\'s accounts and sealed my house. I have nothing left, nothing at all!!!"

Lei Peng\'s face was flushed red with anger, so distorted as he yelled that it was clear he wasn\'t considering the consequences anymore. All he wanted was to plunge a knife into that damn lawyer across from him and end it all!

While shouting, Lei Peng had already pulled out a foot-long pig-slaughtering knife from his chest.

"You\'ve destroyed me, you know? Let me tell you, I still have this life. If you won\'t let me live peacefully, then goddamn it, I won\'t let you—"

However, just as he was brandishing the knife and before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Tang Fangjing across from him.

"You\'re being pressured to death? Why don\'t you talk about how those damn migrant workers of yours were driven into desperation, huh? You still have a house, but they can\'t even afford a meal!"

"They\'re over sixty years old, struggling in the blazing sun, and every penny they earn is hard-earned through sweat and toil!"

It was genuine hard-earned money, so hard-earned you could see the blood if you split it open!

Tang Fangjing still remembered when he told Li Lao\'er that the case had made significant progress, and they were close to getting the wages back, the old man who had never complained no matter how hard life was, broke down in tears and insisted on kneeling to thank him.

"You can swallow your conscience and embezzle such hard-earned money, and now you\'re telling me that I\'m pressuring you to death? Goddamn it, is that how a person acts?"

"Now you come here spewing this nonsense at me? Pah, you\'re no better than a dog!"

The fact that the prosecutor\'s office didn\'t approve the arrest doesn\'t mean he\'s innocent, it just means the critical evidence hasn\'t been found yet. But Tang Fangjing knew well, don\'t think cash is almighty.

Anyway, according to Old Ge, when they caught him they also busted an underground gambling den. It\'s said that the gambling den\'s boss was still complaining in the police station, claiming he was wronged...

Under such circumstances, it\'s easy to investigate. The casino owner was taking a cut; wins and losses were all logged. Never underestimate the investigative abilities of the police force.

Old Tang couldn\'t understand where such grievance came from. There were plenty of disgusting things happening these days: unfinished buildings, shady intermediaries, subletting landlords, and some private medical institutions...

Some people might think there couldn\'t be so many unscrupulous deeds, but there are even cases where you\'re asked for more money once you\'re on the operating table. If they can do that, what won\'t they do?

Lei Peng was stunned into silence by the earful he got. This wasn\'t how the script was supposed to go.

Wasn\'t it supposed to be that as soon as he showed his knife, the other party would be scared, begging for mercy, pleading with him to let them go?

Why was it that now the tables were turned and he was the one being scolded?

Initially, Old Tang had indeed planned to calm the other party down, dragging things out and, once the knife was revealed, to call the police. The police would arrive quickly, and so the precious dying protection would be saved.

But then he thought of Luo Duancheng and his coworkers.

Although he took on the case due to a task, it didn\'t mean that Tang Fangjing lacked heart.

When I was at the law association, I was never afraid. So why should I cower now? That would mean the system was a waste, better to have a clear conscience. Otherwise, I\'d feel suffocated even in my sleep!

The lawyers at Tengda Law Firm were all stunned, or rather, no one expected Tang Fangjing to be so tough.

This is not the time to be serious. The other party has already pulled a knife on you, and you\'re still talking tough. What\'s the point?

Getting stabbed can kill you. This behavior will only infuriate the other party and bring no benefits whatsoever.

A little patience can disrupt major plans, a moment of patience can lead to calm seas...

Miss Xiao Yan was holding her phone, her eyes focused solely on Tang Fangjing!

Only Old Song stood there sighing. He had interacted with Tang Fangjing the most and knew what he was thinking.

Old Song had already had the thought that even though Tang Fangjing was highly professional, he really wasn\'t cut out to be a lawyer. What kind of lawyer is so inflexible, without mediation or negotiation?

Tang Fangjing, however, was stubborn from beginning to end, like a brute...

He looked around and, as if remembering something, dashed toward the restroom, hoping the cleaning lady hadn\'t finished and hadn\'t washed the mop yet.

At such a critical moment, a thousand words aren\'t as good as finding a handy weapon.

Meanwhile, after Tang Fangjing had shouted, he also discreetly stepped back two paces, positioning himself beside a chair.

Say what you will, make a fuss if you must, but staying alive is still very important. If it\'s possible to avoid a fight, then avoid it, but facing a knife with bare hands is just stupid.

Lei Peng had come to his senses. The words of Tang Fangjing had rubbed his already scarce dignity into the ground, and in his towering rage, he stabbed the knife towards Tang Fangjing.

Thanks to his recent training, Old Tang reacted slightly faster, instantly picked up a chair, and started to block with it.

The fight began, and chaos ensued. But ultimately, the chair was no match. With nowhere to retreat, Tang Fangjing felt a chill on his body.

Looking at the knife thrust into his chest, Tang Fangjing bizarrely thought of one thing.

\'Pain Shielding\' provided yet another experimental result; the sensation of being stabbed was strong, but not painful. It was very strange...

On the other side, Lei Peng stabbed once and saw blood spray out. Suddenly, he felt scared.

He had been drinking before coming here; otherwise, he wouldn\'t have been so impulsive. But after the rage subsided, fear was inevitable. Had he... committed murder?

He wanted to run, but suddenly felt a pair of hands grasp his wrist.

Looking up, he saw the pretty boy opposite holding him back.

"You stabbed me and think you can run?"

Lei Peng struggled fiercely, shouting:

"Let go of me, damn it! Let go, you lunatic! Have you lost your mind?"

Tang Fangjing responded with a grin, "I\'ve been crazy for a while, and even have a certificate to prove it. Didn\'t you know?"

Lei Peng: "..."

But Old Tang didn\'t hold on for long. \'Pain Shielding\' allowed him not to be affected, and \'Death\'s Protection\' gave him the courage to not fear when fighting for his life, but that didn\'t mean he really wanted to waste a life-saving trick.

So, when he saw Old Song appear behind his opponent with a mop, he quickly sat down and pressed on his wound to stop the bleeding, just as he had learned from a medical video.

He chose to trust in modern medicine; it was just a stab wound, not a fatal spot. The hospital was near Tengda Law Firm, so it made no sense to waste his skills.

These were reserved for countering the big moves.

Lei Peng tried to leave but couldn\'t anymore. Old Song had emerged from somewhere, swinging a mop soaked with an unknown liquid, smacking it onto Lei Peng\'s head.

The unidentified liquid made Lei Peng\'s eyes burn so much he couldn\'t open them, and while he rubbed his eyes trying to walk out, he heard a voice.

"Police! Don\'t move!"

Tang Fangjing was urgently taken to the hospital, and because today there were many hiding and filming, the footage quickly made its way online.

"A lawyer from Jingzhou City\'s Tengda Law Firm was stabbed, suspected to be over a wage dispute!"
