Lawyer: Send the Judge to Prison

Du Jingguang couldn’t get into Gu Chen’s law firm...

Plus, the director above him issued an order...

The company will spend money to find a way to dig up dirt on Gu Chen’s law firm...

Du Jingguang was very angry.

Why can’t he, such an excellent lawyer, get into Gu Chen’s law firm?

Since he can’t get into Gu Chen’s law firm, and the company wants to target Gu Chen...

So Du Jingguang has been watching Gu Chen closely.

Just waiting for Gu Chen to lose this court case, that would be satisfying.

Once the media spreads the news and sets the tone...

Losing a case is normal for a lawyer, but if the media sets the tone, it would be to say Gu Chen took the case for money...

The media can only set the tone this way; they wouldn’t dare to smear Gu Chen in other ways too.

Who dares to smear a law firm?

That would just be asking to get into trouble.

Especially since Gu Chen is known as the Lawless Madman...

If anyone dares to smear Gu Chen, they might truly end up in trouble.

Du Jingguang confidently said, "Don’t worry, this time Gu Chen will definitely lose. I’ve already prepared for this, and I’ve contacted quite a few reporters. Don’t worry, I’m not sure how he could win, do people really think Gu Chen is a deity who can win every case?"

Du Jingguang didn’t know Gu Chen’s true purpose in taking cases.

Gu Chen just wanted to be a good lawyer, taking cases was all...

Regarding the many big companies inviting Gu Chen to become their legal director, that’s an industry secret.

Others are unaware.

But Gu Chen didn’t take those contracts worth millions in annual salary...

He still chose to be a lawyer and focused on handling cases.

Even many of the company’s affairs were handled with the help of Xue Qingqing and others.

As chairman of the company, Gu Chen actually doesn’t handle many affairs in the company.

Strictly speaking, it’s Xue Qingqing who truly counts as the company boss.

But Gu Chen doesn’t mind.

The amount of money he makes doesn’t matter to him.

Moreover, the company’s current operations are doing very well...

Xue Qingqing doesn’t care much for shares herself; she invested over tens of millions into the law firm alone, but only took a small percentage of shares.

The extra shares were still Gu Chen’s insistence to give to Xue Qingqing.

...

Du Jingguang said, "Gu Chen, this guy, is really baffling. He runs a law firm but still goes out to handle cases just to rake in money; it’s really sickening. He just takes whichever case has high attention or offers more money. Lawyers like this are ruining the industry’s atmosphere."

An assistant nearby said, "But isn’t Gu Chen the boss of the law firm? He’s been handling cases to make money all along, hasn’t he?"

Du Jingguang snorted with laughter and said, "Gu Chen’s law firm definitely attracted a lot of investment; do you think it’s still just the small firm it once was? Back then, it could cover rent and other expenses... all the remaining money was his. But now, with the firm being so large, surely many companies have invested in it. How many shares Gu Chen actually holds is uncertain...."

"I think the boss behind Gu Chen’s law firm might have changed already; Gu Chen just wants to come out and make more money.... Watch, he’ll lose this case."

Du Jingguang doesn’t believe Gu Chen can keep winning cases.

Regarding this case, how is Gu Chen supposed to win?

Wang Xiaoru is not at fault!

So what if she cheated? Even post-marriage cheating, the court can still divide property upon divorce; it’s just a matter of property amount.

As for cheating while dating, that’s even more laughable.

Cheating during dating happens quite often... but it is a moral issue.

Breaking the law?

No, it’s not illegal at all.

Such a thing simply isn’t against the law!

Even if Wang Xiaoru did cheat, has anything been affected?

Wang Xiaoru and Shen Fei were dating, and all the property was willingly given by Shen Fei to Wang Xiaoru, even marked as voluntary giving.

Voluntary giving means the money has already been given to Wang Xiaoru.

Now, after a year of dating, wanting to take the money back?

Would the court support it?

Absolutely impossible.

Gu Chen coming to handle the case is the same....

If you hit someone, you pay compensation; everything is quite normal.

Du Jingguang said, "Just wait and see, once the case is lost, immediately go smear Gu Chen."

"Otherwise, Gu Chen’s law firm will actually become the Red Circle Law Firm, it’s developing so fast... It’s too exaggerated... Now, especially whenever Gu Chen handles a case, everyone is watching him."

Gu Chen’s fame made Du Jingguang very upset.

Gu Chen’s law firm wouldn’t take him, would they?

Then just wait!

....

Soon, the spectator seats were already filled with audience members.

Gao Yong and Xia Ranran didn’t come this time.

The two have already joined Gu Chen’s law firm, busy with their work.

But when this case starts, they would still follow it online.

Because this is Gu Chen handling a case...

No matter how busy they are, when Gu Chen handles a case, they must come to learn a bit.

Xia Ranran said, "Gu Chen is handling another case. This case is a civil case, not like the previous criminal cases, it’s not so easy."

Gao Yong also said, "Civil cases, Gu Chen isn’t too skilled at these, but I feel that Gu Chen might be able to turn a civil case into a criminal one, just because he’s Gu Chen."

Xia Ranran smiled and said, "Exactly, because he’s Gu Chen... He’s so incredible that I need to study this case."

Gao Yong said, "I’ve already thought of how Gu Chen will handle this case. I can only say Wang Xiaoru is in danger. She might be sent in by Gu Chen if she’s not careful."

Xia Ranran also said, "Send her directly? Not to that extent, right? This is just a civil case. Can Gu Chen really just send her in over a disagreement? That’s too exaggerated."

Gao Yong said, "You’ll see, Gu Chen’s most impressive skill is turning civil cases into criminal ones. If you’re not careful, the defendant ends up in trouble."

Xia Ranran: "???"

Xia Ranran just recently returned to the country and doesn’t know much about Gu Chen.

She’s only watched Gu Chen handle cases a few times, and those were all criminal cases.

Gu Chen managing to send others in was well supported by evidence, quite normal.

After all, the opposition broke the law, and Gu Chen seized the opportunity, so he could definitely send them in.

But this nickname of Lawless Madman...

Can’t possibly be true, right?

Most likely just an online nickname given by netizens.

But now, hearing Gao Yong say this made Xia Ranran’s scalp tingle a bit.

Is Gu Chen truly this formidable?

Can he send anyone in if he wants?

This is too abnormal.

In Xia Ranran’s understanding, this simply can’t be.

This case is just a civil case....

The two haven’t even married; how could Wang Xiaoru be sent in?

Xia Ranran decided to seriously watch how Gu Chen handles this case.

If Gu Chen can really send Wang Xiaoru in just over a disagreement, that would be truly abnormal.

...

Inside the courtroom.

Everyone had already arrived.

The court was about to commence.

The recorder announced, "All rise! Now, please welcome the presiding judge, judges enter the court!"

Everyone in the courtroom stood up.

Presiding Judge Shen Jiarui, Judge Zhao Min, and Judge Fang Rui entered.

The recorder announced, "Everyone please be seated."

Presiding Judge Shen Jiarui sounded the gavel.

Shen Jiarui: "Now I declare the official commencement of the court hearing!"

Shen Jiarui spoke, "Now confirming the identities of the plaintiff and defendant, Plaintiff: Shen Fei, Plaintiff’s defense lawyer: Gu Chen."

"Defendant: Wang Xiaoru, Defendant’s defense lawyer: Zhang Yun."

Shen Jiarui continued to ask, "Now acknowledging the recusal principle, before the formal start of the trial, I want to ask whether the plaintiff or defendant wants to request recusal?"

Actually, the recusal principle is quite simple...

For example, in this case, if the presiding judge knows the plaintiff or defendant and has some connection.

Then, the plaintiff and defendant could request recusal.

This would mean the court would replace the presiding judge with someone else...

This ensures maximum legal fairness and impartiality.

Shen Fei: "No objection, not requesting recusal."

Wang Xiaoru: "What does recusal mean?"

Presiding Judge Shen Jiarui spoke, "It means if you believe I have connections with you all, you can request recusal."

Wang Xiaoru: "??"

Wang Xiaoru said, "I don’t mind, anyone can handle the case."

Shen Jiarui said, "So not requesting recusal."

Wang Xiaoru: "Mm."

Wang Xiaoru was in a bad mood today.

She was very upset with her lawyer’s attitude.

The lawyer she hired, Zhang Yun...

Today, she asked Zhang Yun to pick her up from home and go to court...

The result, Zhang Yun actually refused!

For what reason?

They signed a contract... Zhang Yun was the lawyer she hired!

She paid money!

After paying, Zhang Yun shows this attitude?
