Chapter 402: A Turning Point in the Flying Stream

Facing the crying sound from Zhou Qiangnong on the other end of the phone, Zhang Ruiming was also upset, at this time, his wife Tang Shi next to him turned over and sighed, he hurriedly comforted Zhou Qiangnong on the other side and said: "Okay, Brother Zhou, don't worry, let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow, okay, let's do this first......"

"Hey, hey, but ......"

Zhang Ruiming hung up the phone after a perfunctory sentence, he leaned down to hug his wife's shoulder, Tang Shi broke away his arm, and complained in his tone: "You're a little too much now, aren't you, don't let people sleep in the middle of the night?"

Zhang Ruiming could only apologize to his wife again and again, he said while lying down gently, but his mind was still occupied by Zhou Qiangnong's words just now, thinking about Quanjian's countersue for the Zhou family, logically speaking, this is completely unreasonable, this Zhou Qiangnong's tort request against Quanjian is a unilateral tort liability law request, and there is no room for a counterclaim, but why does Quanjian start from this aspect?

This is too strange, Zhang Ruiming's original expectation was that after Quan Jian learned that Zhou Qiangnong was preparing to attack from a tax perspective, the senior management of Quan Jian, represented by Shu Yihui, would be angry and take radical and illegal actions like attacking himself, and when the evidence is ironclad, then he can find a good information explosion point to provide to the "Gardenia Doctor", and if Quan Jian's reaction is not provoked, then he can also threaten Quan Jian with tax issues and force him to mediate again within a reasonable range, but what he didn't expect was that Quan Jian actually chose "counterclaim." Do they want to compete in the courtroom in the open?

The more Zhang Ruiming thought about it, the more headache he had, he couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply got up in his clothes, stood on tiptoe, lowered his steps, and quietly slipped out of the room like a cat, ready to go to the study to flip through the information, and see what ideas and offensive points the luxurious legal team and outsourcing lawyers on Quanjian's side were.

His movements were already very light, but he still accidentally disturbed his wife, Tang Shi sat up suddenly in the dark, looked at Zhang Ruiming with a faint look, sighed and said, "Alas, you still haven't given up, right?"

Zhang Ruiming had previously promised his wife that he would withdraw from these things about Quan Jian, but when it came to the end, after Zhou Qiangnong jumped off the building, he couldn't watch his father's life be ruined like this. So he stood up again, trying to continue to fight with Quan Jian, but with his family behind him at this time, it was difficult for him to turn back.

"What are you talking about? No, I'm going to report a document tomorrow, I'll get up early and see if it's better, I can't sleep anyway......"

Zhang Ruiming had already lowered his tone very slowly, and tried to use a relaxed tone, trying to cover up the past, but Tang Shi just replied coldly: "I have already heard your voice on the phone, there is no need to lie to me, besides, how many people are surnamed Zhou in your courtyard? Who will you call Brother Zhou?"

Zhang Ruiming saw that his little cover was exposed, and his face was full of embarrassment: "Wife, I can't help this, I just give some opinions for Zhou Qiangnong, and I don't get in ......the way."

After listening to Zhang Ruiming's defense, Tang Shi didn't speak, and she didn't go back to sleep, still sitting on the bed, with her head down, and an indifferent face under her messy hair. The two are frozen here like this, Zhang Ruiming wants to leave but can't, looking at his wife in front of him who is on the verge of losing control, and he doesn't dare to come out.

In fact, this short confrontation was only a few seconds, but in Zhang Ruiming's senses, it seemed like a few hours, Tang Shi finally said after trying to be patient: "Forget it, you move your things down, let's sleep in separate rooms." ”

Zhang Ruiming panicked now, the two of them had only been together for less than two months, this Tang poem suddenly became difficult, this is obviously another harbinger of the start of the Cold War, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and quickly explained: "Wife...... Don't be angry, you really just give them some advice, and it won't affect ......"

"Zhang Ruiming, are you still treating me as a fool!? I don't know what kind of virtue you have? As soon as you handle the case, you will be like crazy, you don't care about anything, and you can't wait to invite all your clients back to be the same as the master, me and my daughter, have you ever cared!? Have you considered your family!?"

"I ......"

After returning to the topic of quarrels that had been repeated day after day, I don't know how many times, Zhang Ruiming was suddenly speechless. Even after all this time, he still doesn't know how to balance his family with his career as a prosecutor. The failed attempts in the past made him not know how to speak at this time, but stood in the distance in a daze, enduring his wife's anger.

After scolding for a while, Tang Shi was also tired, she sighed and said, "Forget it...... I don't want to say it, otherwise I'll wake up my daughter later, you move things out, you can do whatever you want, I don't care, let it be you......"

After Tang Shi finished speaking, he turned around and lay down, leaving only Zhang Ruiming standing in place, looking at his wife's back, and after staying for a few seconds, he didn't choose to turn back to comfort Tang Shi, just pushed the door out alone, and then gently closed the door.

…………

Zhou Qiangnong was more anxious than Zhang Ruiming thought, he sent Zhang Ruiming a few text messages early in the morning, it is estimated that Zhou Qiangnong has no culture this week, and the text message order is not very clear, but the meaning is obvious, and the anxiety is about to overflow the screen. Zhang Ruiming replied to him and asked him to calm down first, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of the city inspection, he saw that the father was already squatting in front of the door of the bailiff duty room, ready to block himself.

"Zhang Jian, what do you think should be done...... I haven't slept all night......" Seeing Zhang Ruiming coming, Zhou Qiangnong hurriedly rubbed his hands and stood up, his old face full of depression.

"Minister Zhang, he said he came to find you......"

The bailiff on duty was obviously still hostile to Zhou Qiangnong, who had just been "rescued" from the administrative building not long ago, and his tone was a little displeased.

"Okay, I got it"

Zhang Ruiming just nodded to the bailiff, he glanced at Zhou Qiangnong, and didn't say anything, he led the bored Zhou Qiangnong to go inside, he walked in front, Zhou Qiangnong walked behind, the two walked to the backyard of the city inspection one after the other, Zhang Ruiming, who led the way, had a gloomy face like blue, and Zhou Qiangnong behind him was impatient, but he didn't dare to complain, and he was red.

The two walked to the shade of a tree, Zhang Ruiming suddenly turned around, looked at Zhou Qiangnong with fixed eyes, and said, "Old Zhou, you tell me the truth, what is the situation you haven't told me yet?"

Zhou Qiangnong didn't expect that at this time, Zhang Ruiming was still asking him this with his face, he was angry, he didn't hold back his emotions, and asked Zhang Ruiming rhetorically: "Zhang Jian, what do you mean by this? It's because of your ghost idea, I've been countersued now! Are you still asking me what I haven't told you? What else can I not tell you? What else do I want to say and what I shouldn't say? What else do you want me to do? I don't care what you say, anyway, you are responsible for this matter this time, I won't just forget it!"

Zhang Ruiming was angry and funny when he heard it, before he encountered a problem, this week's eldest brother was a "Zhang Jian", and he almost didn't confess himself, and as soon as he encountered a problem, Zhou Qiangnong's previous flattering face disappeared immediately, and now he actually keeps saying that he is responsible!?

According to the anger of patience, Zhang Ruiming looked at Zhou Qiangnong with his eyelids rolled up, and his tone became more serious: "You said that you were countersued, what about the documents on the court's side? What is the reason for the counterclaim? If you don't hide anything, what will the Quanjian Group use to countersue you? Have you done any radical behavior?"

Zhang Ruiming's questioning voice was only in exchange for Zhou Qiangnong's more fierce moves, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Ruiming's collar, the strength of the crop handle is not no time to exercise, and the prosecutor who has not had the opportunity to do it for a long time can compare, Zhang Ruiming was mentioned by him at once, fortunately, the place where the two of them stood at this time was next to the back garden of the city prosecutor's building, and there were few people coming and going, and no one noticed the conflict at this time.

Zhang Ruiming's heart was stunned, he didn't expect Zhou Qiangnong to dare to do it to himself, he only reacted after he was lifted off the ground, and immediately twisted the hand that was stuck in his neck like a pair of iron hoops, broke free, and then shouted: "Old Zhou! You figure it out! I am the one who helped you! You dare to do it to me, believe it or not, and send you to detention!"

Zhou Qiangnong's eyes were red, and he did not flinch and said: "You help me?!It's your bad idea that hurts me now, and I'm going to be sued now, if you want me to lose money, I'll tell you, and I'll find you!"

In the face of this almost scoundrel-like words, Zhang Ruiming was furious and laughed, but in this case, he still did not forget this messy problem at this time, there was only one way to solve it, and he forced his anger in his heart.

"I don't want to fight with you about this, so I'll ask you, what did the court tell you? What did Quan Jian use to sue you?"

Seeing that Zhang Ruiming was still holding on to this question, Zhou Qiangnong's face flashed for a moment, but he quickly replied: "I...... How to figure out those things, anyway, it must be because of your bad idea, and you want me to provoke the other party, I'm ready, in case I get punched and kicked, it will be just a justice for my daughter...... It's okay now, people are not like you said at all, people don't come to the yin, they come to the court and sue me, what do you want me to do!?"

Zhou Qiangnong tried to cover up the weakness in his heart with the anger on his face, Zhang Ruiming didn't answer much, just looked at him fixedly, and said word by word: "I said, I want to read the court's documents to see what the situation is, I don't believe that the other party really has any unfounded reasons to sue you, I want to know the truth." ”

The atmosphere has become more solidified, and there has been a complete freeze between the two.

Zhou Qiangnong stared at Zhang Ruiming deadly, he was half loud, and after he was angry, he wanted to teach the prosecutor in front of him another lesson about the other people in front of him, but Zhang Ruiming was majestic and righteous at this time, which reminded Zhou Qiangnong of the experience of being thrown into the detention center by the city inspection not long ago, so he spat heavily, turned around and rushed out of the city inspection gate without looking back.

…………

Zhang Ruiming stood in the warm sun of early winter, the weather was so beautiful, but there was a chill in his heart, what he didn't expect was that Zhou Qiangnong refused to even tell himself the reason for being countersued by Quan Jian, there was definitely a problem here.

When he returned to the office, he immediately asked his senior sister Lu Youliang, who was in the middle court, to inquire about the situation, and soon the news came, and he knew the reason why Zhou Qiangnong was so abnormal, and this reason shocked him extremely much.

Quanjian Group's countersue against Zhou Qiangnong is not without reason, nor is it without evidence, according to the statement from Lu Youliang's side, in fact, when Xiao Zhouyang was alive, Zhou Qiangnong took her to several publicity conferences of Quanjian Group, and at the same time took the stage to talk about his experience for publicity. And these publicity activities, Quan Jian's side insisted that they were paid, and they had an agreement with Zhou Qiangnong's side, and the price at that time was already thousands of times on stage, and a few doses of free prescriptions were also included, and from any point of view, Quan Jian had evidence to prove that the fact that Zhou Qiangnong sued for his infringement was not established, and it was a commercial act between the two parties!

Moreover, now Quanjian not only counterclaims that there is a commercial contract relationship between him and Xiao Zhouyang's father, but at the same time, Quanjian also countersues Xiao Zhouyang's father for fabricating facts everywhere and damaging the reputation of Quanjian Group.

These rabbits changed and made Zhang Ruiming sit there stunned, and he didn't even listen carefully to Lu Youliang's voice on the other end of the phone.

"Senior brother, junior brother, did you hear that?"

Lu Youliang's clear voice brought Zhang Ruiming back to his senses, and he immediately replied, "Oh, oh...... Well, that's the case, I've been wondering why there is a counterclaim in such a clearly related case, I thought it was a mistake, it turned out to be this situation......"

Zhang Ruiming's tone was as calm as possible, he almost blurted out to Lu Youliang, and scolded Zhou Qiangnong for hiding key information from him and misleading the strategy. But he reacted at the moment when the words were about to be spoken, after all, there was a judge on the other side, in her circle, maybe she knew the presiding judge who tried Xiao Zhouyang's case, and she said something unintentionally, if you give the presiding judge the impression that Zhou Qiangnong is really hiding the key plot, it will be bad, although this case now seems to be a lack of skills, but she can't give up on herself and tear down the bridge before the river has crossed.

"Moreover, I also heard that in this case, the plaintiff's lawyer responded to the sudden counterclaim situation is also very strange, and the lawyer actually agreed to it without even asking for the preparation time of the counterclaim, and the trial will go according to the original time, which is a ...... Weird, by the way, Ruiming, what does this case have to do with you?"

In the face of Lu Youliang's kind inquiry, Zhang Ruiming could only answer embarrassedly: "It's nothing...... It's a distant relative, ask me to ask about the situation, he has something to do with this, and he is also one of the victims of Quanjian......"

Zhang Ruiming casually lied, not wanting to involve Lu Youliang too deeply.

"Oh...... That's right. Judging from the tone, Lu Youliang didn't have much suspicion, she still reminded from the perspective of worrying about this junior brother: "In short, let me say a few more words, from the perspective of the middle court, although the value of this case is very small, the forces involved are not ordinary, you should also know about this Quanjian......, right? It's really extraordinary, I glanced at their lawyer group, Dazheng, Qingsheng, and Fazheng basically have masters in the back to make suggestions, this Quan Jian is really a big deal, and he doesn't care about the small amount of money in the lawsuit. In my opinion, this is the first civil infringement lawsuit against Quanjian initiated by Jingang City, and they want to show prestige and set an example, and they want to kill the plaintiff, so that the more than 100,000 Quanjian members in Jingang will learn a lesson and dare not file a lawsuit against this company again......"

"Hmm...... Well. ”

Zhang Ruiming replied in a vain manner, what Lu Youliang said, he had already known it clearly, but at this time, it still made his scalp tingle.

"In short, I advise you, if that relative of yours plans to file a lawsuit against Quan Jian...... I suggest forget it, this case is an example, it's difficult...... The other party is the strongest lineup, how do you play, and how much money can you get back, so do it yourself. ”

Zhang Ruiming and Lu Youliang are not too familiar, although the two are alumni of Western University, but Zhang Ruiming only met at a rare alumni meeting after being transferred to Tianjin and Hong Kong, and Lu Youliang is an old senior in the Intermediate Court, and he cherishes feathers very much, the two have not had much contact with each other, and there is no case to meet, Zhang Ruiming's most recent contact with her was in the Tianjin and Hong Kong four poisoning runway case two years ago, when Lu Youliang was the presiding judge, the whole case came down, completely impartial, and there was no mercy at all because of the friendship between brothers and sistersAfter all, Xiao Zhouyang's case also involved the layout of his next public interest lawsuit against Quanjian, and in this case, he took the risk of dialing Lu Youliang's phone.

Unexpectedly, after this senior sister knew that it was such a non-disciplinary matter, she was actually very enthusiastic, and revealed these insensitive situations to Zhang Ruiming, but she didn't know that her enthusiasm couldn't make Zhang Ruiming feel a trace of warmth at all, only to hear that after thanking the junior brother, he politely made an appointment to have a meal together next time, and then hung up the phone.

After Zhang Ruiming hung up the phone, he punched the wooden table in annoyance, shaking the soft egg stored in the box and almost falling out. Zhang Ruiming's eyes were horizontal, and he scolded Zhou Qiangnong several times in his heart, but he thought about it for a long time, but there was still no solution, so he could only dial Zhou Qiangnong's number according to his patience.

He knew that now the case had slipped to the most dangerous situation, and it was basically impossible to win the case, but he was still unwilling to give up this last bit of hope, and wanted to persuade Zhou Qiangnong to reject Tang Zuo's decision, not to rush to the trial, and to delay a little more time to prepare, but after he dialed the phone, after more than ten seconds of busy signal, the other party hung up the phone.

When Zhang Ruiming dialed it again, it was already refused.
