Although Bai Duanduan was unfavorable, Ji Lin didn't seem to care much, and then Bai Duanduan heard him change the subject: "I just said, Lin Hui is not a good person. You said before that he was kind to you , It’s not convenient for me to refute that other people are not bad. Now you see? He is the kind of person who doesn’t need to think at all when his own interests conflict with others’. He will choose to sacrifice others to fulfill himself, and even use From what I know about you, I completely disregard how much you will blame yourself and how sad you will be if you stick to the principle and cause the client to lose the arbitration."
Obviously, Ji Lin will never be pleasing to Lin Hui's eyes. He is like a little boy who finally finds the flaws and evidence of the person he hates, and then goes to the teacher to make a small report. He finally seized the opportunity. Another attack on Lin Hui in all directions.
After cursing freely, he finally cleared his throat and concluded: "In short, it is enough for you to recognize him clearly. As for Tian Mu, we will continue to investigate and collect evidence. Since his idea is to prove that Tang Li I had an extramarital affair with Lu Shuisheng, the money was given because of the extramarital affair, and Tian Mu didn't know about it before, he was very angry when he knew it, wanted to divorce, and even almost got into a fight with Lu Shuisheng on the spot, so our idea of proof actually changed. It's even simpler. We don't need to look for evidence of cooperation between Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng. We only need to prove that the other party's explanation is untenable. Once there is no extramarital affair, then the monthly sum of 200,000 If Tian Mu can't explain the flowing water, then he has to bear the consequences of unfavorable proof."
Regarding the predicament at this moment, Ji Lin was full of confidence and even looked forward to it, as if facing Lin Hui, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
He smiled: "It proves that the cooperative relationship between Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng has encountered a bottleneck, but we have not tried to prove that the extramarital affair between Tang Li and Lu Shuisheng is fake. This is a new idea instead. I think there’s a lot to do.”
When Ji Lin said this, Bai Duanduan suddenly became enlightened. He was right. Lin Hui proposed a new way of defense, but also gave them a new way to obtain evidence. The two had never tried to use this angle to investigate The investigation revealed that there was cooperation between Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng, but it is difficult to verify that all traces were deliberately removed, but there was nothing between Tang Li and Lu Shuisheng, but they fabricated an extramarital affair out of nothing, and submitted a bunch of documents for this. Tian Mu showed his anger after knowing the evidence of the extramarital affair, but all the evidence must have been crudely fabricated in a short period of time, so there must be loopholes...
Before, I suffered from no evidence and no grasp, so now...
"If you start with the evidence that proves the extramarital affair, it can be proved that it is fake, or that it was deliberately photographed, which is actually the key point to win."
Ji Lin smiled: "Smart."
Bai Duanduan was a little embarrassed to be praised like this: "If he is really smart, he wouldn't have thought that Lin Hui would do something like this."
Ji Lin didn't care about this: "Normal people would not think of such a method. Only people like Lin Hui can think of it." After he finished speaking, he opened the passenger door for Bai Duanduan, "Let's go, first Go to eat, and talk on the rest of the way."
Bai Duanduan nodded and got into the car, Ji Lin closed the door for her and got in the car, and then helped Bai Duanduan to fasten the seat belt. After fastening, he took a look at Bai Duanduan, then calmly kissed her. hit her.
Bai Duanduan glared at Ji Lin.
Ji Lin said calmly: "Oh, I seem a little depressed to see you lose, so I comfort you, I think you need it."
It's just that even though the words are said so, and the reason is serious, Ji Lin's ears are still slightly red accidentally.
Sure enough, he would be shy with this kind of excuse.
There are people coming and going at the gate of the arbitration committee, Ji Lin's car is expensive enough to attract attention, and he is already a celebrity in the circle of city A in the field of labor disputes. Ji Linqian had a panoramic view of Bai Duanduan's scene. This arbitrator is usually very familiar with Bai Duanduan. Bai Duanduan felt a little embarrassed when he was stared at by the other party, but she raised her head slightly, only to see it in the corner of her eye. Seeing Lin Hui, he was standing obliquely behind the arbitrator, probably also saw the interaction between Ji Lin and Bai Duanduan, his face that was originally calm and breezy was now full of undisguised consternation...
Because of Ji Lin's kiss, Bai Duanduan's frustration of losing to Lin Hui just now was diluted. She felt that she was motivated and motivated to regain her strength, so she didn't care about anything else, and followed Ji Lin seriously to eat lunch.
The two told Xie Miao about the arbitration situation in the morning in detail, and made an appointment to meet again to discuss it. After that, Jilin had an external meeting at the client's office to attend in the afternoon, and after sending Bai Duanduan back to the office, they went on their way again After leaving in a hurry, Bai Duanduan began to sort out the clues by himself according to the ideas discussed with Ji Lin during lunch, in an attempt to find a new breakthrough point for evidence collection.
Now, the identities of myself and Ji Lin being undercover by Tang Li's side must have been exposed. In order to cover up for Tian Mu, Tang Li did not hesitate to cooperate with the performance of this script. It may not help to find someone else to go undercover. She and Tian Mu will fight ten times. With 20,000 points of energy and precautions, I am afraid that he will even stay behind closed doors.
As expected, because the reason for the defense was not honorable and false, Tang Li did not explain to her Internet celebrity plastic sisters that Bai Duanduan was a false identity, but she really stayed behind closed doors.
"Her, she said recently that she is retreating, saying that she wants to stay at home with her husband, and we won't come out when we ask her out."
Bai Duanduan asked a few small Internet celebrities, and the answers they got were all the same. Tang Li really calmed down and kept a low profile. Not only did he not update his social network Weibo, he even stopped going out, probably to avoid it completely. The risk of being forensic again made Bai Duanduan and Ji Lin helpless.
It's just that Bai Duanduan is the kind of character who knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers to go to the tigers. Lin Hui uses her own principles and bottom line to deal with herself, and she has to do something about it.
Surprisingly, Bai Duanduan carefully sorted out the evidence for a while, and received a call from Lin Hui.
She cut off the first call.
Bai Duanduan still didn't want to answer the second call.
But Lin Hui persevered this time, making a dozen or so phone calls in a row, but Bai Duanduan couldn't answer, so he started sending her text messages—
"Duanduan, I'm in the cafe downstairs in your Shenglin. I have something very important to tell you. Please meet me."
Bai Duanduan didn't really want to see Lin Hui, but Lin Hui's attitude was very firm when they met today: "I really have something very important to tell you, about you and about Ji Lin, it's okay if you are busy, I will always Waiting for you downstairs."
…
After that, he sent a few more messages, and the words were somewhat urgent.
And the last text message finally made Bai Duanduan shaken—
"I'll tell you what happened between me and Ji Lin."
Ji Lin? Sure enough, there was something going on between Lin Hui and Ji Lin that he didn't know about.
From the beginning of Ji Lin's attitude towards Lin Hui, Bai Duanduan felt that it might not be simple, there were some old things, but Ji Lin kept his mouth shut and didn't want to talk about it. But Bai Duanduan is not stupid, after all, Ji Lin has done a good job in non-litigation business in the United States, why did he return to China and devote himself to the field of labor law? And once he was obsessed with the labor law, he focused on Zhaohui, and he was obsessed with Zhaohui's case, either to steal or to be an opponent; Ji Lin was obviously not interested in the Dai Qin case that he took after he first came to Shenglin, but when he heard that the other party's lawyer had After Lin Hui, he was even willing to cook breakfast for himself for a month without getting any share and to participate...
Thinking about it so carefully, many clues that I didn't pay attention to at the beginning have become suspicious now. Ji Lin's unusual hostility towards Lin Hui...
Lin Hui was still sending text messages—
"I brought you two boxes of crabs. The season of crabs is coming soon. These two boxes of crab paste are very fat. You can come downstairs to pick them up. I won't waste your time."
Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, although Lin Hui has given himself up this morning, but he was really kind to him in the past, and Bai Duanduan couldn't do it completely, and Bai Duanduan was really curious Ji Lin She thought about the past with Lin Hui, and finally decided to meet him.
—
Lin Hui was indeed in the coffee shop downstairs, and he did bring crabs. His expression was a little pale, which was quite different from his calm and relaxed appearance this morning.
He specially reserved a small private room. After Bai Duanduan sat down and ordered coffee, he stared at Bai Duanduan twice before he opened his mouth dryly: "Duanduan, are you with Ji Lin?"
He dryly confirmed, "Are you dating him?"
Bai Duanduan froze for a moment, then nodded generously.
"I hope you will be sensible and break up with him after listening to what I have to say."
Bai Duanduan frowned and looked at Lin Hui: "Lawyer Lin, I called you Mr. Lin before, but it doesn't mean that I recognize you as an elder who can dictate my private life. If you call me here today There is no need to talk about this matter, I am very busy, I have to go upstairs."
Lin Hui held Bai Duanduan back, and he said with an ugly expression: "Duanduan, I'm really doing it for your own good. You listen to what I have to say first, and then you make a decision after listening."
He coughed, and then threw a bombshell at Bai Duanduan—
"Ji Lin doesn't really like you. He is with you just to use you and to get revenge on me."
Bai Duanduan frowned completely.
For a moment, she was suddenly in a daze. She always felt that she seemed to have gone to the wrong place. She strayed into the filming scene of some bloody crew. What was Lin Hui talking about? Did Ji Lin stay with him for revenge? What kind of imaginative plot is this
Lin Hui pursed his lips, as if anticipating Bai Duanduan's reaction, he paused and took a deep breath: "Duanduan, there is something I have been keeping from you." He looked at Bai Duanduan's Eyes, "I used to represent a case where the other party was Ji Lin's father."
Bai Duanduan raised his head and stared at Lin Hui.
"That was nearly twenty years ago. At that time, you hadn't even gone to college, maybe you weren't ten years old. I was only in my twenties. I just successfully stayed in school and became an assistant lecturer in the law school, because At that time, I was able to apply for a lawyer's certificate during my graduate school. The inspection of the certificate was not as strict as it is now, so I had already successfully obtained the lawyer's practice certificate. Under such circumstances, I wanted to try my hand at the challenge of working as a lawyer, and it was also that year that I started handling cases.”
"So the case of Ji Lin's father was the first case you handled? What happened in this case that caused Ji Lin to have any trouble with you?"
"It's not the first case, it's the eleventh case. I remember it very clearly."
"Did you win the case?"
"I won." Lin Hui paused, and lowered his gaze, "This is a labor dispute case. Ji Lin's father's factory is facing insolvency and has not paid the workers' wages on time. I represent more than a thousand The employees and several executives defended their rights and asked for wages. I won the lawsuit. After winning the lawsuit, in order to pay the wages and compensation, Ji Lin's father had to declare the company bankrupt, and finally set up a liquidation team to sell the assets to pay back, but His family's business... just collapsed like this. Ji Lin's father committed suicide within a few months after the lawsuit was won and the laborers got the money."
Bai Duanduan was completely quiet. At this moment, she didn't even know how to react to be reasonable, because her limbs were cold and her mind was blank. Ji Lin never told her about it, she didn't know His father died so early, not because of illness.
"His family's company is called Jixin Pharmaceutical."
Jixin Pharmaceutical
Bai Duanduan was shocked, she knew this company!
Because the bankruptcy of Jixin Pharmaceutical was once a big news that had circulated in City A for more than a month. This is almost a well-known company in City A. It was independently cultivated and established by local entrepreneurs in City A. It has received multiple rounds of financing and market optimism within two years. The drug is expected to be launched in the mainland in the fourth year, and the clinical trials of immune cell gene therapy candidate drugs are also progressing in an orderly manner. Log in to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to raise funds and go public.
As a self-cultivated company in City A, Jixin Pharmaceutical was also the subject of local news stations competing for publicity and interviews. Even elementary school students like Bai Duanduan who don't like to read news often heard related news through various channels. Or see related promotions. Looking back now, Bai Duanduan still vaguely remembers that according to reports, the boss of this company, surnamed Ji, returned from studying abroad to start his own business.
To this day, Bai Duanduan still doesn't know much about the pharmaceutical industry. He only knows that it is enough to burn money and make enough money, because at that time, almost every other time in the news, he could hear related reports about Jixin Pharmaceutical's financing of X billion yuan. Although I don't know exactly what this company does, but Bai Duanduan's young mind only left the impression of two big characters - rich.
This company is rich, and the owner of this company is rich. Bai Duanduan even remembered very clearly that when Jixin Pharmaceutical was developing new drugs, the investment was calculated in hundreds of millions.
Of course, if it’s just like this, she may not be able to remember Ji Xin so clearly. She can remember this company so firmly. So, the news media are full of praise for the company and the founder, but all of a sudden, Bai Duanduan didn't know when, the news came out again, that Ji Xin's capital chain was broken, and Ji Xin Xin Pharmaceutical is dying, the investor has withdrawn capital, and the employees are in arrears of wages... In short, the positive image of singing and dancing has suddenly turned into overwhelming negative news.
After that, what I heard was the news that Jixin Pharmaceutical was completely bankrupt and insolvent.
Bai Duanduan only found out about this because of his parents chatting before, and he didn't take it to heart at all, but he didn't expect that this case would be so closely related to him after nearly twenty years. The son of the person involved in this case is his current boyfriend and boss. The laborer's attorney in this case is his former teacher and former boss...
Ji Xin Pharmaceutical's bankruptcy was just a trivial matter at the time, but now it seems that it was the most thrilling turning point that changed Ji Lin's life.
Ji Lin said that he went out to work illegally when he was thirteen years old, and also had a long-term experience as a kitchen helper. Bai Duanduan was very curious and asked many times, but he was noncommittal and finally changed the subject. Bai Duanduan went over It's only because Ji Lin's family was relatively poor since he was a child that the poor child would be able to take charge of the family early. However, he never expected that he was also the son of a young master who was like the favored son of heaven... the son of the ruler of Ji Xin Pharmaceutical.
However, the changing business environment made his father face difficulties, and then the situation took a turn for the worse, and his life also experienced ups and downs.
Bai Duanduan's father started off as a well-to-do family when he was in a state-owned enterprise, but he was tricked into resigning and starting a business. In the end, his father's amputation operation made the family almost precarious. Forget the gap between forgetting and dismissing, and put yourself in the shoes of Ji Lin, from the proud son of heaven to the son of a debtor who crossed the street like a mouse, and experienced the criticism and scrutiny of the entire public opinion in City A at that time, this kind of pressure and embarrassment and pain may not be her at all. People who have never experienced this can imagine, not to mention that Ji Lin was only in his teens when the accident occurred in Jixin Pharmaceutical...
If Jixin Pharmaceutical had only been on the verge of bankruptcy from prosperity, it would not have been remembered for so many years. What made Jixin Pharmaceutical the most talked about by many people was the news that the founder Ji Chengzhi committed suicide not long after bankruptcy.
In fact, he died peacefully. He took an overdose of sleeping pills while his family was asleep at night, so that his family found that they were exhausted when they called 120 the next morning.
Bai Duanduan never thought that it was just someone far away in the news, but it turned out to be Ji Lin's father who passed away early.
For a moment, she only felt complicated and oppressive with mixed feelings. Even if she didn't have to think about it, she knew what Ji Lin had experienced back then.
Seeing the heavy thought on Bai Duanduan's face, Lin Hui thought he had finally convinced her: "I took the case. Because of my intervention, their company finally lost the lawsuit and went bankrupt. Ji Lin's father probably couldn't bear such a big gap and pressure, and finally committed suicide."
"Ji Lin has always believed that I was the one who killed his father. If it wasn't for me, his father would not have died at all." Lin Hui's voice was also a bit difficult when he said this, "When his father was at the funeral, I In fact, I went, knowing that his family was not easy, and wanted to do my best, but Ji Lin rushed forward like crazy at the beginning, biting my wrist as if he was going to die with me, and directly grabbed my hand. A piece of meat was also bitten off, and it was bloody and bloody at that time. He was only ten years old, but his eyes were full of hatred that did not belong to that age... "
When Lin Hui said this, he opened his sleeves. There was indeed a scar on his right wrist. It turned out that Bai Duanduan hadn't delved into the origin of it, and it was only at this moment that she finally knew the answer in a daze.
Lin Hui sighed heavily: "Actually, I sent money to Ji Lin every year at the beginning, but he returned it all. He has extraordinary self-esteem, because even if I didn't send money in my own name, he would It was returned intact, and later I heard that he went to university, and then went to the United States through a scholarship, after a long time, I forgot about it until he returned to City A a few years ago."
He glanced at Bai Duanduan: "You will know later, he was engaged in high-end non-litigation business in the United States, but after returning to China, he switched to a completely unfounded labor dispute direction, and he targeted Zhaohui everywhere."
"After so many years, he has never been relieved, and he has never forgotten. His heart is still full of hatred for me. I think he came back to China for revenge, to target me, and you..." Lin Hui said with some pity and hesitation Looking at Bai Duanduan, he said vigorously as if he had finally made up his mind, "Duanduan, he has indeed robbed Zhaohui of a lot of income in his business, and he has indeed caused me a lot of trouble, but after all I have been in City A for so many years, Zhaohui Given my scale and reputation, it is impossible for him to kill me like this, so I guess, he thinks that the revenge on my professional field is really not painful, and he can no longer satisfy his desire for revenge."
"So he came to approach me?"
Lin Hui nodded: "I know it's cruel to tell you so bluntly. Maybe you can't accept it at all. After all, you...you just fell in love with him, and he probably wants to get close to you to please you. He probably pampers you very much. of."
Lin Hui took a deep breath: "You are my most proud student. Although we had conflicts and disagreements at work before, I have always regarded you as my closest junior. When I retire one day, then my The source of the case in the book will naturally be distributed to you. Seeing that Ji Lin couldn't hit me, he probably thought of a way to get revenge on you. You know that Zhaoxia regarded you as her own sister at the time, and how much she had to take care of me all the time. I support you and care about you, you are really different to me. If you suffer a major setback because of emotional injury and are tortured very painfully, I will not be happy either."
Lin Hui blinked, and added with some embarrassment: "Besides, you know that there have been many versions of rumors about you and me in the circle. Although we are just a simple relationship between superiors and subordinates and teachers and students, there are always some good people who will make up Rumors may be distorted versions that reach Ji Lin's ears, and he may think that taking you away from me is the most beneficial revenge for me."
Lin Hui's words stopped short, but Bai Duanduan quickly understood that what Lin Hui wanted to say was nothing more than this--Ji Lin mistakenly thought that he was Lin Hui's ex-girlfriend, and even the two of them were deeply attached to each other. As Ji Lin's revenge against Lin Hui, he took away his love and his beloved woman...
…
Lin Hui's words were indeed an information bomb to Bai Duanduan. She never thought that Ji Lin knew Lin Hui earlier than herself, and there was such a relationship between Lin Hui and Lin Hui, but even at this moment, Bai Duanduan still calmly sorted out all the information in Lin Hui's words.
Then she looked at Lin Hui: "Since you already knew that Ji Lin is Ji Chengzhi's son and that he hates you, why did you pretend that you didn't know anything about the past between him and you, and let me represent you?" Inviting him to have dinner with you, just lightly saying that there is a little misunderstanding between you?" Bai Duanduan slightly raised his voice, "But is this a small misunderstanding? Since you know the cause and effect so well in your heart, why do you ask me for an appointment? Ji Lin? You know it's impossible for him to see you."
Lin Hui was stunned for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "Duanduan, you are too wary of me, I really didn't want to harm you by telling you these things, nor did I want to provoke the relationship between you and Ji Lin. I'm just really worried about you."
"Indeed, I knew who Ji Lin was and what I had a problem with, but it was between me and him after all. It was my fault that you switched from Zhaohui to another law firm. Even if I That's right, you can't be prohibited from freely choosing a career in the industry. I didn't want to involve you in this matter at first, because it has nothing to do with you, but at that time I began to realize that you and Ji Lin were a little too close , You have reached a subconscious maintenance of him, so I am a little worried, afraid that Ji Lin hired you to use you, so I came up with that method."
"So you want to test Ji Lin?"
Lin Hui nodded, a little relieved by Bai Duanduan's intelligence and straightforwardness: "It's like this, Ji Lin is almost incompatible with me, so I think, if you mention to him to have dinner with me, he will Probably just hearing my name will make you angry on the spot..."
Bai Duanduan looked at Lin Hui calmly: "But Ji Lin didn't."
"Yes, he didn't, that's why I'm more worried." Lin Hui took a sip of coffee, "If he got angry on the spot, then I think it's okay, because he doesn't even bother to cover up his true attitude towards me. No ghost, but he didn't say anything. He just didn't pick up your words, and downplayed the matter of eating together. But he hates me so much, how could he bear it? As far as I know, he even , I had a dispute with my classmates, and finally got into a fight. Not only did I pay for the medical expenses, but I was almost punished... "
"At that time, I was feeling uneasy, so I kept taking care of you. Be careful of Ji Lin, but I was not sure enough to accuse him. After all, he has matured and grown up after so many years. It may not be the one that exploded at the beginning. You are working under him. If he didn’t have a quarrel with you because of this, then I won’t mention it again, so that you won’t be embarrassed by him at work in the future, but I didn’t expect , He actually made this calculation, he actually lied to your feelings in order to get revenge on me."
Speaking of this, even Lin Hui, who is always calm, became a little excited: "Duanduan, he definitely did it on purpose. He showed his intimacy to you at the door of the arbitration committee, and it was definitely for me to see."
To be reasonable, Ji Lin didn't even know that the arbitration tribunal Lin Hui would come, so it was nonsense to deliberately show Lin Hui this kind of thing.
What's more, Ji Lin who has never studied law at the age of 13 may not understand, but Ji Lin who has practiced law for many years at the age of 30 will not understand. When a lawyer represents a client, he has no position. He is just engaged in work. This is what a lawyer should do to fight for the interests of the client to the maximum extent possible under the law. Back then, it was only Lin Hui's job to ask for wages for the employees of Ji Lin's father. He had no intention of forcing Ji Lin's father to death. Injustice without enmity, who is full
If it was just what Lin Hui said, Lin Hui just performed his duties normally, then after all these years, Ji Lin should have figured it out and relieved himself, and he would not have held grudges like this. Lin Hui even felt that Ji Lin would take revenge on him. , Do whatever it takes to take advantage of yourself.
Bai Duanduan realized almost immediately that Lin Hui had something to hide from him about this case.
