Are You Crazy? He’s only an Intern Lawyer?
Chapter 579 - 572: Qin Dalu, The Hearing Comes to a Conclusion

Chapter 579: Chapter 572: Qin Dalu, The Hearing Comes to a Conclusion

Huang Yunhe hadn’t expected that he would crash and burn.

In fact, he had considered that there might really come a day when this would happen.

After all, he had done so many shameful things, it was possible that they’d be exposed one day.

But what he absolutely hadn’t anticipated was that it would be his own daughter who would cause his downfall.

How could his own flesh and blood dare to reveal everything he had done in front of so many people?

And as the woman laid bare all of his actions, Huang Yunhe’s face became so gloomy that it was difficult to look at.

"On * day in the month of *, a weekend, my father had promised to take us to the supermarket, but I knew he was actually very reluctant to do so, as he didn’t smile the entire trip. We ran into a lady on the shopping street; father asked us to walk away and then he started to argue with her, slapped the woman and cursed at her, calling her a ’cheap woman’ and a ’woman who doesn’t know how to live’."

"I don’t know how many times something like this happened, but I could feel mom’s stress increasing by the day, and the fights between dad and her growing more frequent."

"From that day on, I knew my father was no longer the same dad he used to be; ever since he became a senior partner, his mind wasn’t on the family. Instead, the ’sisters’ he knew, and those he didn’t, were on the increase. I don’t know what relationships these women had with my father, but I knew mom seemed to dislike it very much."

"I swear, I must help mom, because she raised us with immense difficulty, and my dad has more than once spoken ill of her. I swear I will make dad regret it!"

At this point, the daughter’s diary ended.

And after the daughter finished reading the diary, the entire hearing fell into a brief silence.

But on the bench, the looks cast towards Huang Yunhe were filled with disdain and suspicion, along with a deep contempt.

After a long silence, Zhang Wei was the first to stand up.

"Cough cough, thank you, Miss Huang, for your testimony. I believe all of your statements should be included as eyewitness testimonies and should serve as a basis for consideration!"

"Now, let us get back to the point, and summarize Old Huang’s actions."

Zhang Wei said, raising one finger after another, listing out: "Firstly, having improper relations with numerous women. Old Huang, it’s really something — you’ve got a wife, yet you chose to have extramarital affairs, and moreover with female subordinates. This is a good example of abuse of power and workplace oppression!"

"Secondly, after having relationships with these women, in order to prevent the disclosure of these affairs, you resorted to using threats, warnings, and even physical harm to force them to stay silent."

"Next, your daughter, as an eyewitness, reported you multiple times for physical and verbal assaults on women, even public humiliation—you, Old Huang, really do not hesitate to go that far."

Zhang Wei couldn’t help but remark, "I, Zhang Someone, may not see myself as a good person, but I can proudly say that I, Zhang Wei, never hit women!"

"Compared to you, I, Zhang Someone, seem like a gentleman of integrity. I think whatever lowly things I’ve done wouldn’t compare to a thousandth of yours—you’re really an eye-opener for me!"

"Similarly, it’s disappointing to discover that a firm like Longteng International Law Firm would have such a parasite like you inside, bullying both men and women, completely redefining what I thought of Longteng!"

Zhang Wei’s speech left Huang Yunhe’s face shifting from shades of green to purple, and then gradually darkening to black.

The latter’s fingers twitched, his jaws clenched tightly, and his face displayed growing anger.

"Old Huang, you seem very angry, huh?"

Zhang Wei seemed to sense the change in Huang Yunhe’s mood and added fuel to the fire: "What was I saying just now? Oh, it seems there’s one last point I haven’t mentioned yet!"

"Cough cough, finally, I want to say that Huang Yunhe, you’re utterly wicked. But I’m also curious, your identity is just a lawyer, after all, how were you able to silence so many victims, huh? So I did some digging and found that behind you, besides Longteng, you have another backer, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the hearing perked up their ears.

And Huang Yunhe and Chen Xiao, sitting in their seats, were also unsettled.

Not many people knew that Huang Yunhe had another backer.

At least in Huang Yunhe and Chen Xiao’s eyes, Zhang Wei, this little man who came from Dongfang Capital to Longdu, should not possibly know about it.

"Old Huang, although I haven’t found out who your backer is, I do know that you receive a transfer of two million every month from an offshore account. If you don’t mind, why not tell us, where is this money coming from?"

"Hmph, why should I tell you!"

"It doesn’t matter if you don’t say, because the Lawyer’s Association and the internal investigation team will also be asking you this question!"

Zhang Wei didn’t care; if Huang Yunhe wouldn’t talk, there would be others to make him.

"And it’s not just that. Besides receiving a sum of money every month from them, they have also arranged a number of people for you to command, is that right?"

"In fact, I’ve contacted the victims you’ve harmed, and they told me that although you verbally threatened them, they weren’t really concerned about so-called reputation. Many of them wanted to break through their fears and brought you to justice. What really frightened them were the people who came to their doors to threaten them, people who were willing to do anything, causing the real fear."

"So, you, Huang Yunhe, are truly despicable. Not only did you do wrong, but you also employed criminals to threaten the victims, deviating completely from any sort of moral baseline!"

"Huang Yunhe, you’ve lived in vain all these years. Although you are a senior partner of Longteng, you have done so many contemptible things, you’re morally decrepit and insane. I, Zhang Wei, have never seen someone as shameless as you!"

In the end, Zhang Wei raised his hand pointing at Huang Yunhe, his eyes ablaze as he rebuked him!

"It’s all fake, all rumors, it’s all you farting around!"

Lawyer Huang Yunhe was furious, or rather, with his dirty laundry aired for all to see, he no longer bothered to hide anything and went all out.

"Don’t believe them, they are all spreading rumors about me!"

He pointed at Zhang Wei and his own daughter, shouting to those around, "This is all a farce directed and staged by this kid, a ploy to deceive you all!"

"And my daughter, she’s just been bewitched by this kid. None of what they’re saying is true. I, Huang Yunhe, am transparent and upright. I would absolutely not do such things!"

"I..."

"Old Huang, what’s the point of struggling now?"

Zhang Wei shook his head upon seeing Huang Yunhe in such a state.

Was this death throes of any significance?

"You brat, your words mean nothing, I, Huang Yunhe..."

"Yes, yes, yes, what I say might not count, but there are others whose words do!"

Seeing Huang Yunhe still trying to put on airs, Zhang Wei let out a cold laugh.

"Who, who’s opinion matters? I want to see who that is!"

"Huang Yunhe, isn’t it enough already?"

Just as Huang Yunhe was continuing his tirade, a stern voice came from outside the hearing room.

The doors to the hearing room were pushed open by two men in suits, and then a group of people escorted a middle-aged man into the room at a brisk pace.

"Holy shit!"

"Oh my God, that is..."

"Damn, that’s a real big shot right there!"

"Quick, quick, let me take a good look at the grandeur of Qin Head Shopkeeper!"

Indeed, the middle-aged man at the center of the crowd was none other than the head of Longteng International, Qin Lu Qin Head Shopkeeper.

He was the de facto ruler of Longteng, the honorary chairman of the Longdu Lawyers Association, and Longdu...

Indeed, it might take 5 minutes just to list his titles.

In any case, as long as everyone knew he was Huang Yunhe’s immediate superior, that was all that mattered.

"Huang Yunhe, I never expected that within my firm, there would be such a scourge as you."

After Qin Lu arrived, he went straight up to Huang Yunhe, his eyes filled with cold sharpness.

And when Huang Yunhe saw Qin Lu, he completely lost his composure. The anger on his face was replaced by fear and apprehension.

He knew that everyone else, including Zhang Wei, actually could do him no harm.

But this man before him was a real big shot who could decide his fate with a single word!

"Speaking of which, I had also heard some gossip about you, but I never took it seriously, thinking it was rumors spread by your competitors. What I didn’t expect was that most of those rumors turned out to be true!"

Qin Lu continued, then turned his head to look at Zhang Wei beside him, "Moreover, it was an outsider who got a hold of your weaknesses, and in front of so many people, exposed your numerous crimes for all to see!"

"Huang Yunhe, I formally notify you that your actions have brought tremendous reputational damage to Longteng, and I definitely will not spare you. You’re done for!"

"After today, you will be expelled from Longteng, and your deeds will be thoroughly investigated by the Lawyer’s Association and the investigative department. I will assign my younger brother to personally investigate you!"

These words were tantamount to a death sentence for Huang Yunhe.

Qin Lu’s younger brother was naturally Qin Yangqin Procuratorate, a key figure at the Longdu District Procuratorate Office.

If he took action, all of Huang Yunhe’s misdeeds would likely be fully exposed.

Just as the literal meaning suggests, he was finished!

"Lawyer Zhang, I have to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I would never have known that there was such a scourge in my firm!"

Qin Lu walked up to Zhang Wei to express his gratitude.

"Qin Head Shopkeeper is too kind. It’s merely a coincidence that I took over Old Tie’s case and thus discovered these matters."

"Ha-ha-ha, now that’s really quite a coincidence..."

Qin Lu chuckled, then turned to look at Tie Ruyun.

At this moment, Old Tie had not expected that his case would involve so many issues, to the point that even Qin Dalu from Longteng Law Firm appeared.

"Tie Ruyun, I deeply regret what happened to you 12 years ago. Due to Lawyer Huang Yunhe’s negligence, our law firm lost an excellent lawyer. I’m truly sorry."

"Qin Head Shopkeeper, you’re too kind. I’ve been doing very well in Dongfang Capital."

"That may be so, but you must have borne a lot of slander over the years, and such losses are immeasurable. The only thing I can do is, on behalf of Longteng International, as well as myself, offer you a sincere apology!"

As he spoke, Qin Lu slightly bowed to Tie Ruyun in apology, his attitude indisputably genuine.

After the apology, Qin Lu’s gaze swept across the room, lingering on Chen Xiao for a moment.

This look also made Chen Xiao’s heart tremble uncontrollably, fearing that Qin Dalu might trouble her.

Fortunately, Qin Lu’s gaze quickly moved on from her.

While Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, she was equally surprised.

Why Qin Lu would appear at the hearing.

Zhang Wei could answer that question.

Because it was he who had contacted Qin Yang, and then had Qin Yang reach out to Qin Lu.

Zhang Wei also knew that his own significance was insufficient to contact Qin Head Shopkeeper himself.

But Qin Yang was different.

After all, he was his own brother, and once he heard it concerned his law firm, how could Qin Lu not come?

And the timing of Qin Lu’s arrival was just perfect, his appearance shattered Lawyer Huang Yunhe’s last illusion.

The words of Qin Lu virtually declared the end of Lawyer Huang Yunhe’s career, and even for the latter half of his life, he would have to pay for his sins.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I, Qin Lu, would like to make it clear here that Tie Ruyun is an excellent lawyer. I can guarantee his character. Twelve years ago, he would definitely not have engaged in any misconduct. Please, for my sake, give him a chance!"

Although Qin Lu requested that everyone give Tie Ruyun a chance,

in everyone’s ears, it sounded like Qin Lu was giving them a chance.

If there is anyone who objects, then I’m sorry, don’t blame me for settling accounts after the fact!

For a moment, no one at the hearing dared to make a peep.

"Lawyer Zhang, thank you. Then I shall take my leave first!"

In the end, Qin Lu thanked Zhang Wei and left with his entourage directly.

Not until Qin Lu was out of everyone’s sight did the silence at the hearing remain as before.

"Old Huang, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but I truly gave you a chance!"

Finally, it was Zhang Wei on the stage whose speech broke the silence.

Zhang Wei’s voiceover: You, Huang Yunhe, insisted on going this far—it’s all self-inflicted!

"Oh, by the way Old Huang, I want to tell you that, considering everything you’ve done over the years, you betrayed your wife, caused tremendous psychological stress to your son and daughter, so your wife has decided to initiate divorce proceedings against you!"

"And I’m honored that your wife has asked me to be her legal representative in the divorce proceedings against you. I happen to have the same idea and have decided to accept this commission."

"Old Huang, I might have to have several rounds of talks with you before the divorce with your wife proceeds. I hope our negotiations can go smoothly, thank you very much..."

"You..."

Huang Yunhe was stunned. You Zhang Wei are really harsh, cruel, and shameless.

Over here you expose my dark history; over there you get my wife to divorce me, and also divide my property, do you also plan to claim compensation from me?

"You little bastard, you motherf***er, I curse your whole family, ancestors for eighteen generations..."

Huang Yunhe used the last of his strength to shout out this rude remark.

Even because of his fury, his chest heaved violently, and then he felt a sweetness in his throat.

Spurt—

A mouthful of old blood sprayed out right in front of everyone’s eyes.

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone at the hearing was stunned.

They had never imagined that Huang Yunhe, as a senior partner of Longteng Law Firm (not after today), who should have had a strong ability to withstand pressure and psychological resilience, would have his defenses completely broken down by just a few words from Zhang Wei, and even vomit blood on the spot.

Zhang Wei’s words were like sharp arrows that tore through Huang Yunhe’s last line of defense, piercing right through him.

Huang Yunhe’s defenses were shattered, he vomited a torrent of blood, and finally thudded to the ground, unconscious.

In the end, Huang Yunhe was carried away by paramedics, unconscious.

And leaving with Huang Yunhe was Chen Xiao.

She knew that today’s hearing had a foregone conclusion, and there was no point in staying.

Watch her opponents cheer, watch them celebrate their victory?

Chen Xiao certainly wasn’t in the mood for that, nor was she that generous.

minutes later.

With the end of Huang Yunhe’s farce, the hearing continued.

Because of Zhang Wei’s astonishing maneuvers, the entire hearing was hugely shaken.

Of the original five representatives, only two remained, and the Lawyer’s Association had to appoint three new representatives to join them.

Fortunately, these three representatives had sat in the audience the entire time, witnessing Zhang Wei’s divine performance from start to finish.

"Ahem, as one of the representatives, I now declare the voting result: regarding the investigation into Tie Ruyun’s misconduct, our decision is to dismiss the charges!"

After the representative spoke, he glanced warily at Zhang Wei and then congratulated Tie Ruyun, "Congratulations, Lawyer Tie, you have cleared your name!"

"Thank you, thank you to the five representatives for your fair judgment, I’m overjoyed!"

Tie Ruyun was naturally very happy; his mood had never been as good as it was today.

The five representatives were also pleased, as the hearing had finally come to an end.

As for the result of Tie Ruyun’s exoneration, it was something everyone had anticipated.

After all, Qin Head Shopkeeper had spoken up, even apologizing to Tie Ruyun; if they didn’t dismiss the charges, wouldn’t they be slapping Qin Head Shopkeeper’s face?

So, the outcome was no surprise to anyone.

"Old Tie, congratulations on clearing your name!"

Zhang Wei came over to Tie Ruyun’s side and offered his congratulations.

"Thank you, Zhang Wei, if not for your help, I really don’t know..."

"Not at all, it’s everyone’s credit!"

Zhang Wei gestured towards Zhao Xiaoxiao and others sitting in the audience, acknowledging that it was their efforts that had led to today’s victory.

"By the way, Old Tie, what are your plans for this weekend?"

"Of course, it’s to work on cases. Now that I’ve cleared my name, I want to work on Guan Yuhong’s case with you!"

"Is that so? Well, that’s wonderful; do you want to take the lead as the chief attorney?"

"No, no, no, you should be the chief attorney; I’m satisfied just being able to witness all of this."

Tie Ruyun said, still declining to take the title of chief attorney.

"By the way, I need to go back home this weekend!"

"I understand!"

Zhang Wei naturally understood Tie Ruyun’s request.

Old Tie had finally cleared the wrongful charges against him, albeit 12 years late, but now he could face his parents again.

Bearing the stigma and injustice, Old Tie once thought he would never have the face to see his parents in this lifetime.

But unexpectedly, after enduring such hardship, vindication had come; he could finally go home with his head held high.

Thinking of this, Tie Ruyun was overwhelmed with joy, tears streaming down his face.

This was a moment he had waited for far too long!
