Chapter 058: Sabre Rattling
Hearing Tian Tian's more and more excited counting, their originally high and unconvinced heads slowly drooped down.
However, suddenly, the slightly younger one stood up and said angrily: "Even so, it is not your turn to be an outsider to talk nonsense here, let alone your turn to inherit his old man's property!"
There seemed to be two raging flames in that person's eyes, which were enough to devour Tian Tian whole.
Tian Tian's heart trembled violently, as if he heard the other party's teeth gurgling, and felt as if he was about to be violent to himself.
Just as he didn't know what to do, the older man saw this, and immediately pressed the angry man to his seat and sat down, and sternly signaled him to calm down.
Evidently, the young man was extremely unwilling, tilting his head and staring at his neck and snorting heavily from his nose.
Immediately, the older one turned back to his seat and said to Tian Tian with a smile: "First of all, thank you very much for taking care of the old man! However, whether in terms of blood or law, we are the reasonable and legitimate heirs of the old man's estate. Please do it yourself!"
In fact, Tian Tian is not a greedy person, let alone coveting other people's money, but she is not used to such a despicable, shameless, and arrogant person.
This kind of person who only reaps but never pays, and whose skin is tens of thousands of times thicker than the city wall, does not deserve to have the old man's penny at all, so she decided to fight them to the end.
"What? 'Do it for yourself'? You mean I don't have self-knowledge?" she said indignantly.
"Isn't it? shameless!" the younger man growled contemptuously with his chin raised.
Tian Tian held back his anger, blushed, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Who is the real Tian shameless? ”
"Don't be embarrassed! Let's tell you the truth, we came to visit and negotiate this time, just to take care of your face, don't toast and don't eat and drink!"
Hearing the other party's angry and hurried words, at this time, Tian Tian did not have the slightest fear, but his face did not change and his heart did not beat slowly, and said logically: "In this way, do I want to thank you? Thank you for coming to find fault?"
"Don't talk about useless things. So, let me ask you again, you still haven't paid it back?" the older man reconfirmed, slightly threateningly.
"Why should I give it to you? and 'pay you back'? When is it yours?"
Tian Tian said coldly with disdain.
"You 、、、、、、!" The younger man clenched his fists again.
"Miss, if you insist on refusing to back down, then, I'm sorry, we can only see you in court!"
With that, he dragged the young man and turned around and left angrily.
Looking at the angry backs of the two of them, Tian Tian finally let out a long breath.
Hmph! If you fight a lawsuit, you will fight a lawsuit, what is the old lady afraid of? Resolutely accompany you to the end!
She cried out inwardly through gritted teeth.
I thought to myself, I don't steal or rob, it was given by the old man willingly before his death, so he deserved it.
Moreover, even if they robbed it, they could handle it calmly and lose nothing, just as if they had a sweet dream, and now, the dream woke up.
Therefore, no matter what kind of ending, I can be relieved.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Tian Tian came to open the door as usual.
However, when she came to the door of her photo studio, she couldn't help but be stupid.
I saw that the billboard on the gate was in tatters and dangling in front of the gate.
On the wall, the glass window on which the photograph was displayed was also broken, revealing a large hole more than a meter square.
Photographs and glass debris were scattered all over the ground, a mess.
In an instant, an exquisite and high-end photo studio became dilapidated, as if it had been ravaged by a Category 8 typhoon.
Of course, Tian Tian understands that this must be caused by malicious sabotage.
And he didn't offend anyone, except for the two strange men yesterday.
Obviously, those two people are the culprits.
However, this is just speculation, it is suspicion, and it cannot be concluded, after all, there is no ironclad evidence such as a mountain.
But, it is undeniable that those two people have a motive to vent their anger.
Thinking of this, Tian Tian couldn't help but be sad and angry, and scolded in his heart: Bastard!
She unlocked the door with the key and sat in front of the cash register in a daze, with no master and a lot of noise in her head.
To put it bluntly, at this moment, she was a little scared, afraid that those two people would be mad and endanger her personal safety.
So, her first reaction was to call the police.
However, after thinking about it again, forget it, it is too troublesome to call the police, the police will be endlessly questioned, and later, I may not be able to do business for a day.
Besides, even if they confess to what they have done, it will be a small case of "picking quarrels and provoking troubles" and will not be sentenced to a few years.
So, Tian Tian decided to knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
Helpless, she had to silently ask the master to repair it.
She first hired a glass repairer, and then contacted a billboard maker.
On this day, Tian Tian planned to hide his bad mood and continue to operate.
It's just that every customer who came in to take pictures looked at the scene in front of them curiously and wonderingly, and some extroverts couldn't help but shout in surprise: "Ah, what's going on?"
In this way, Tian Tian had to smile awkwardly and not explain in detail.
Three days later, the glass and the door number were all ready.
Although everything is as new, it cost Tian Tian nearly 100 yuan in banknotes. She couldn't help but feel very distressed.
One afternoon, at about three o'clock, a postman dressed in dark green rode a bicycle and slowly stopped in front of the "Meiyuan Photo Gallery", took out a big blue and white document bag and walked into the photo gallery, and shouted to Tian Tian: "Shen Tiantian, express mail." ”
Tian Tian raised his head and greeted him with doubts.
"Come, sign your name. The post office clerk handed her a pen and said.
After quickly signing her name with her head down, she said, "Thank you!"
Then, she took the express and tore the seal eagerly, and walked to the cashier counter in great confusion, and quickly opened it.
However, when the words and lines on the document jumped into view, Tian Tian was simply stunned.
It turned out to be a court summons.
It means that someone has sued her, and it also means that there is going to be a lawsuit.
It seems that the two Zhang men who came from afar still sued themselves in the end.
The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth.
Hmph, if you fight a lawsuit, you will fight a lawsuit, I'm afraid you won't succeed? Tian Tian secretly shouted in his heart.
It shows that the court will be held in fourteen days.
But should I hire a lawyer?
Tian Tian was at a loss and hesitated.
After thinking about it carefully, she still wanted to take the time to consult with lawyer Ruan. After all, he has never been in court or in a lawsuit.
In the evening, she flagged a motorcycle and found the location of lawyer Nguyen's work, however, unfortunately, she was told by the front desk that he was not there.
In desperation, she had no choice but to take Lawyer Ruan's business card, come to the phone booth, dial his BB machine and leave a message.
After a while, I waited for Lawyer Ruan to call back, saying that he was making an appointment with a client, and he was not available tonight, so he would meet tomorrow morning.
The next day, Tian Tian did not open the door, but went straight to the law firm to meet with lawyer Ruan as scheduled.
As soon as she sat down, a female assistant brought a cup of steaming chrysanthemum tea to her with a smile.
Tian Tian gave a general explanation of the situation and presented the legal documents to Lawyer Ruan.
After reading it, lawyer Ruan calmly confessed: "Don't be too nervous, we have a good chance of winning." ”
Seeing that the other party looked calm and confident, she was a little suspicious and uneasy.
"Just prepare the evidence well. Ruan then added.
"So, what evidence do you want?"
Hearing this, Lawyer Ruan took a pen and wrote it on a blank piece of A4 paper with a thoughtful wave, and after a while, he pushed it to Tian Tian: "Well, these." Just prepare as ordered. ”
"Okay. Looking at the list of items listed above, Tian Tian agreed.
"You go back and prepare immediately, and then, give me a backup as soon as possible. Before going out, lawyer Ruan admonished.
She returned to the photo studio and sat behind the cash register, she held her head in one hand and played with a ballpoint pen in the other, her face was restless, she stared blankly ahead.
Yes, she still has a lot of thoughts in her heart, and she has no score.
She inevitably had some weakness.
Because, after all, he is not the blood relative of the old man, and no matter how good he does, he is still an outsider. She thought so, but why was Ruan so optimistic?
Well, I still believe in the lawyer! After all, he is well-informed and battle-experienced.
It's just that if you lose the lawsuit, won't you be on the suspicion of "stealing other people's property", and how embarrassed will you be?
So, no matter what, it's best to win.
When Tian Tian went to the law firm to hand in the evidence, Lawyer Ruan suddenly asked her, "How many times have you sent Uncle Zhang to the hospital?"
She thought for a moment and said, "Seven times in total." ”
"Remember being in that hospital?"
"Yes. ”
"Is there any evidence for this?"
"Evidence, I'm afraid not. Tian Tian snorted embarrassedly, she pondered for a moment, as if she suddenly remembered something, and raised her voice, "However, the orthopedic surgeon knows, and when I paid the fee, my uncle's social security card had my signature." ”
Lawyer Ruan couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
With the flick of a finger, the day of the trial is imminent.
Tian Tian became more and more nervous inexplicably.
On this day, she and her lawyer came to the courtroom early to wait.
Just as they walked into the courtroom, the two plaintiffs passed by Tian Tian, and one of them stared at her with bad intentions, his face full of schadenfreude, and said in a low voice with contempt: "I knew this was the case, so why did I bother in the first place?"
Not to be outdone, Tian Tian bit her lower lip and glared at him.
