Are You Crazy? He’s only an Intern Lawyer? -

Chapter 486: Chapter 482: Take People Away, Wait for People to Come!
Sister Li didn’t go far; instead, she found a fire escape and began making a phone call.
"Brother Chen, it’s bad news. That Bobo, she’s found a lawyer!"
"Yes, yes, yes, they’re in the apartment right now, and they seem to be planning to leave. Once they get out, it’ll be hard to track them down again!"
"Exactly, exactly, if you could come over quickly, that would be best. I can’t handle it on my own here."
"Right, Brother Chen, do we need to trouble Director Zhu with this? He specifically instructed us to consult him on matters about Bobo, right?"
"Ah, it’s not that, I didn’t mean to doubt you, it’s just that Bobo is after all the most promising among the new group we have, and if Director Zhu asks about it..."
"Yes, yes, yes, I got it. I’ll wait for you, I’ll be right here downstairs waiting for you!"
Although Sister Li had a haughty demeanor in front of Zhang Wei and Luo Xiaobu, she was groveling and extremely respectful when facing Brother Chen on the other end of the phone.
After she hung up the call, her expression turned fierce once again.
"To think that just two little lawyers would dream of taking our person away, they must be delusional!"
Sister Li, wearing high heels, picked up the pace, her footsteps echoing with a "clack, clack, clack" on the ground.
The ground floor of the apartment.
Ding!
The elevator doors opened, and immediately after, Zhang Wei and Luo Xiaobu, helping Bobo with her luggage, walked out.
"Stop right there!"
No sooner had they taken a few steps than over a dozen people surged into the apartment entrance.
These people were dressed in colorful T-shirts and ripped jeans, each sporting trendy long hairstyles, looking every inch like local thugs.
The leader of the group was tall with a muscular build, wearing a black skull T-shirt and a face full of arrogance.
All of a sudden confronted with so many people, Bobo and Luo Xiaobu panicked.
"Zhang Wei, what do we do now with so many of them? We can’t handle this..."
"Don’t worry, I have a plan."
But Zhang Wei gave his good friend a reassuring look.
Ding!
From behind, the elevator opened.
"Brother Chen, you’re finally here. These are the ones, they’re trying to take Bobo away!"
"Just two little lawyers thinking they can turn the sky upside down, trying to take away our company’s person, without even looking in the mirror to see what place this is!"
Sister Li had also followed and quickly moved to Brother Chen’s side, pointing at Zhang Wei and his companion and yelling loudly.
"Indeed, Sister Li, such a splendid display of borrowing someone else’s power to intimidate others, quite impressive indeed!"
Zhang Wei looked at the dozen or so people in front of him, yet remained calm as he nonchalantly clapped his hands.
"You..."
Stung by Zhang Wei’s taunt, Sister Li was momentarily at a loss for words, feeling as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.
"Boy, you’re quite arrogant!"
Brother Chen finally couldn’t hold back anymore and stepped forward with a displeased expression.
His height and build instantly maximized the pressure.
Under that pressure, Luo Xiaobu and Bobo instinctively took a step back.
Zhang Wei, however, remained as serene as ever.
"Brother Chen, right? We’re planning to leave the apartment today. I hope you’ll ask your men to step aside; they’re blocking our way."
"What a joke, what if I said no?"
Seeing Brother Chen’s domineering attitude, Zhang Wei spread his hands: "Illegally restricting a citizen’s freedom is a violation of criminal law."
"Criminal law, talking about criminal law, hahaha..."
But Zhang Wei’s words caused Brother Chen to suddenly burst out laughing uncontrollably.
"Criminal law, this kid is talking about criminal law with us?"
"I’m dying of laughter here, really, my stomach hurts!"
"I heard he’s a lawyer, oh I’m so scared~"
Not just him, but his underlings also started laughing hysterically, even pointing at Zhang Wei and teasing him.
"So what if you are a lawyer? If you think you can leave this door today without leaving something behind, wouldn’t that mean I’ve been wasting my time in this world..."
"No worries, my back-up has arrived!"
As Brother Chen was boasting, Zhang Wei pointed towards the apartment entrance where his assistance had arrived.
"What assistance?"
Just as Brother Chen turned around, he saw three people entering the doorway.
The two leading girls were cute and pretty, even more beautiful than the livestreamers signed with their company.
As for the guy following them, he was automatically ignored by them.
"Simple-minded person, Sister Xiao Wu, I’ve been waiting for you!"
Zhang Wei waved towards the newcomers.
This time, the backup was naturally Xia Qianyue, Zhang Xinwu, and her annoying little brother, Zhang Xinyan.
"Zhang Wei, have you taken on a new case?"
"This time, it’s Radish’s case!" Zhang Wei pointed at Luo Xiaobu.
"Oh, Radish’s case, huh!" Xia Qianyue glanced at Luo Xiaobu, then looked at Bobo, and after seeing that huge weapon, she subconsciously lowered her head.
Endless plains and towering mountains, is this the disparity between people?
Uh...
Well, Xia Qianyue felt that maybe she shouldn’t have come.
"Kid, is this the help you’ve brought?"
On this side, Brother Chen laughed again.
What help, they actually brought two girls, one of whom obviously had no fighting power, just a little loser.
He could handle all three of these people with just one hand.
"I’d advise you to be careful, we’re about to leave."
Zhang Wei gave a warning, signaling Brother Chen to move aside.
But the latter did not give way at all, instead, he deliberately blocked Zhang Wei’s path, with clear ill intentions on his face.
"Kid, the chicks you called are pretty hot. I wasn’t planning on letting you go today, but if your girl entertains me for a couple of moves, maybe I’ll be in a good mood and let you go," Brother Chen said and even smiled at Xia Qianyue, but the smile was somewhat lecherous.
"Brother Chen, how can you let them go, what about Director Zhu!"
But the person on the side was getting anxious; they couldn’t let Bobo go.
"Did I ever say I’d let Bobo go?"
Brother Chen sneered coldly, reassuring Sister Li not to worry.
He might let Zhang Wei go, but he never said he’d let Bobo go.
And besides, he didn’t believe he couldn’t handle two little girls.
"Alright then, since Brother Chen has spoken, I trust your word," Zhang Wei gestured to compare the fighting powers of both sides.
He thought that it might only take one move for Xia Qianyue to deal with Brother Chen...
This disparity in fighting power was just too great.
Zhang Wei took Luo Xiaobo by the hand and stepped back several paces.
Zhang Xinyan and Zhang Xinwu also drew aside, clearing the space for Xia Qianyue.
Seeing Zhang Wei and the others so earnest, Brother Chen’s brows slightly furrowed.
But then, looking at Xia Qianyue’s frail figure compared to his own, the smile returned to his face.
"Little sister, how old are you? Want to spend the night with Brother, and I guarantee you’ll feel even better than with that guy?"
Hiss—
Upon hearing these words, Zhang Wei and the others couldn’t help but gasp.
They then saw a vein on Xia Qianyue’s forehead beginning to throb.
Anger!
She was angry!
"Now we’re really done for!"
Zhang Wei already covered his eyes, unable to watch.
"Little sister, don’t be silent, huh?"
"Come on, hit here, I’ll let you punch my chest!"
"Let’s see if you can make me feel good today, maybe I’ll make you feel good too, heh heh heh..."
Amid the dirty talk, Xia Qianyue took a step forward, then her eyebrows furrowed, and she threw a light punch.
"Asking for it!"
With a delicate shout, a fist struck in front of Brother Chen’s chest.
Boom!
A terrifying blast of wind pressure struck, and Brother Chen felt as if he had been hit by a Category 13 hurricane, his entire body lifted into the air, tumbling backwards.
He and his group of underlings were all uprooted like newly planted saplings by the storm.
After another bout of the world spinning, they crashed heavily to the ground in the hall, rolling like gourds all the way until they hit the wall on the first floor.
Thud thud thud!
The sound of the impact was rhythmic and regular.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Wei at the back couldn’t help but imitate Brother Chen’s manner, putting on a snooty pose with his nostrils flared.
Do they not understand the value of being a martial arts convention champion, or the strength of someone who can defeat the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch in seconds?
It seemed that this group clearly didn’t understand.
Zhang Wei walked over to Sister Li, who was the only one not affected by Xia Qianyue’s punch and was still stunned in place.
"Sister Li, I’m taking Bobo with me, take care of yourself!"
Having not walked far, Zhang Wei seemed to remember something and pulled out another business card from his pocket.
"Oh, right, you threw away my business card, but no worries, I’m a big-hearted person; I forgive you this time. Keep this card safe, and have your boss Zhu come find me!"
After giving his advice, Zhang Wei waved his hand grandly once more.
"Let’s go!"
He and Luo Xiaobu helped move the luggage, while Zhang Xinyan and Zhang Xinwu acted as escorts to guard against any nearby enemies.
Xia Qianyue followed Zhang Wei, looking warily at Bobo with all the suspicions of a young girl’s mind on full display.
The six of them got in the car, and although it was a bit crowded, Zhang Wei’s group still drove back to Zhang’s Martial Arts School.
The dormitory at Zhang’s Martial Arts School would be Bobo’s next place to stay.
It was not only free from disturbance, but most importantly, it was safe.
After leaving Bobo behind, Zhang Wei pulled Luo Xiaobu along and took Xia Qianyue with them on their next move.
"Radish, Silly, let’s hit the road!"
The trio from East University Law School was teaming up once again.
"Zhang Wei, where are we heading now?"
"To Jincheng Law Firm. The agency might send someone over later. My business card doesn’t list this place, but the criminal department of Jincheng Law Firm, so shouldn’t we wait for them there?"
Zhang Wei spread his hands, showing he had a workplace. He obviously wouldn’t set the meeting place at his residence.
...
At the same time.
In an office building near a web celebrity apartment.
Sister Li was waiting anxiously by herself.
Because Brother Chen and the others who were with her were all lying in the hospital, she could only come to see Director Zhu alone.
Just thinking about who Director Zhu was made Sister Li somewhat afraid.
The door to the office inside was wide open, and a woman with dyed hair, a golden nose ring, and earrings came out.
"Sister Li, Director Zhu says to come in."
Sister Li followed the woman into the office.
Of course, while this was called an office, the inside was noisy, with male shouts and female screams occasionally breaking through the chaos.
They were actually having a party here!
The pounding music, the dancing men and women, the dazzling lights, and the mountains of empty bottles around the room showed that the people here were clearly having a great time.
"Sister Li, you’re here, come on, let’s go for a spin!"
In the crowd, a young man with a bare chest, surrounded by flamboyantly dressed women, gestured for Sister Li to come over.
"Director Zhu!" When she saw him, Sister Li quickly greeted him respectfully.
But the next moment, Director Zhu wrapped his arm around her and poured nearly half a bottle of liquor down her throat.
Gulp gulp gulp...
Although she showed pain on her face, Sister Li still forced herself to drink it down.
Pfft—
Eventually, she couldn’t hold it in any longer and vomited.
"Yo, you dare to refuse Director Zhu’s drink?"
Director Zhu didn’t speak, but the several ruffian-looking men around him couldn’t help themselves, giving Sister Li rather malevolent looks.
"Director Zhu, I was wrong, I’m truly sorry."
Sister Li was held by the neck by Director Zhu and didn’t dare to struggle, barely managing to beg for mercy with a frightened face.
"Sister Li, what did you do wrong?"
At that moment, Director Zhu also spoke up.
"I was wrong not to notify you. You said that anything about Bobo must be discussed with you, but today she was taken away by two lawyers."
"Huh, Bobo?"
Director Zhu’s smile on his face froze slightly—he genuinely didn’t know about this.
"Two junior lawyers took Bobo away?"
"Yes, Director Zhu, they left quite a while ago."
"What about Brother Chen? Didn’t he stop them?"
"Brother Chen tried to stop them, but now he’s lying in the hospital, and his men are in the same shape."
"This..."
At this, Director Zhu became unsettled.
He signaled towards a spot not far away, and all of a sudden the entire party scene quieted down. The DJ, the dancers, those jubilant—everyone stopped in their tracks.
"All of you, get the hell out!"
With another command, those unrelated left the office, leaving only a mess behind.
After the office was left with only his close confidants and henchmen, Director Zhu turned to look at the woman he was holding hostage.
"Sister Li, you’re saying that two junior lawyers took Bobo away right under my nose without my knowledge?"
"No, they also called for reinforcements, two very beautiful girls. It was mainly them?"
"Them?"
Director Zhu paused for a moment before continuing, "So just those few people put Brother Chen in the hospital, and then took Bobo away in front of you?"
"Yes, that’s right..." Sister Li trembled, nodding her head.
"Oh, is that so..."
Director Zhu nodded, then took a deep breath before his hands unconsciously landed on Sister Li’s face.
"Sister Li, how long have you been with me?"
"Director Zhu, I’ve been with you for ten... nearly eleven years..."
"Then you should remember that ever since I started the live streaming business ten years ago up to now, I’ve always valued talented newcomers, right?"
Director Zhu looked at Sister Li, his voice growing colder, "Sister Li, you should know how promising Bobo is, how much revenue she could bring to my company?"
"Among so many batches of female anchors, more than a hundred of them, she has the most potential. Others have thousands or tens of thousands of followers, some of which are even fake. But this newcomer, in less than two years, has amassed millions of fans. Do you know how much effort I’ve put into nurturing her?"
"Now she’s gone, and the live stream room has already been shut down. Have you calculated how many potential fans we’re losing every day, how much donation income is slipping away?"
Hearing these words, Sister Li trembled, her voice quivering, "Director Zhu, I’m sorry..."
"Hmph, you know you’re in the wrong, in the wrong f*cking way!"
Director Zhu’s face contorted with fury as he pressed down on Sister Li’s head and aggressively flung it forward.
Bang!
Sister Li’s face made an intimate contact with the ground, and even the sound of her nose breaking could be heard.
"Damn bitch, I’ve told you countless times, I told you to inform me about any traces of Bobo, no matter how slight, and yet you still let her be taken away!"
"Do you know how much money I’m losing every day because of this trip? If Bobo takes the lead and other anchors in my company follow her example, how much loss will that cause?"
He stepped on Sister Li’s head and gradually increased the pressure.
"Director Zhu, I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"
Sister Li struggles while begging for mercy.
Although her nasal bone might have been broken already, she knew all too well what offending this man could lead to.
A little bit of physical pain compared to her safety didn’t seem like much at all.
"Hmph, where is Bobo now?"
"I... I don’t know..."
"You don’t know?!!!"
As soon as Sister Li replied, the leg pressing on her head increased its force.
Sister Li struggled, trying to break free, but her strength was clearly insufficient.
"Business card, I have a business card, it’s the lawyer’s card that was left behind... Director Zhu, please spare me, forgive me..."
While struggling, she pulled out a business card from her clothing pocket.
Director Zhu bent down, picked up the card while maintaining his trampling stance, and looked at it himself.
"Jincheng Law Firm, ace of the criminal department, Zhang Wei?"
After a glance, he frowned.
The name of Jincheng Law Firm is known to everyone in Dongfang Capital.
Furthermore, Director Zhu actually had a like-minded friend inside Jincheng Law Firm.
But he still had one question in mind.
"A lawyer from Jincheng Law Firm, how can he be acquainted with Bobo? Could he also be watching Bobo’s live stream?"
"Also, most of the money Bobo made these past two years has been deposited with me, where did she get the money to hire a lawyer?"
"Getting a lawyer is one thing, but why did she hire a criminal lawyer?"
He murmured to himself, and the force on his leg finally relaxed a bit.
After some thought, he lifted his foot, letting Sister Li struggle to her feet.
She was covered in blood, but still tremblingly apologized continuously, "Director Zhu, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
But he had already stopped paying attention to her and took out his phone to dial a number.
The phone connected instantly, and the once imperious Director Zhu now had a smile on his face.
"Young Master Lin, do you still remember me? It’s Zhu Pitte, the one who took you flying!"
"Right, right, right, our company recently got a new batch of female internet celebrities. If you like them, I can arrange for one tonight."
"Oh, that’s great. By the way, a small incident occurred at our company today, and it seems to involve Jincheng Law Firm."
"Oh, what’s that? You’re asking what happened?"
"Ah, it’s not a big deal. Our company’s Bobo, the big G you’ve had your eye on, she was taken away by one of your firm’s lawyers!"
After Director Zhu finished speaking, there was a moment of silence on the other end.
"Who!"
After a while, just one word came through from the other end, with a tinge of menace.
Director Zhu flipped open the business card, confirmed the name again, and then said, "He left a card, seems to be called Zhang Wei..."
The person on the other side fell into silence after hearing the name.
"I’ll handle it!"
After a while, a cold sentence came from the other end, and then the call was disconnected.
Director Zhu looked at the disconnected phone and sneered.
With Young Master Lin stepping in this time, everything would certainly be resolved.
In Jincheng Law Firm, who would dare not give face to Young Master Lin?
