Too Bad I Take Things Seriously-Chapter 595 - 231: A Wedding Shocks the Jin City Legal Community!_4

"Really? It’s related to Qin Mu? So you’re saying we can see Qin Mu at the wedding?"

"Last time, during the lawsuit against the entire internet, I personally secured over eighty cases! The money I earned was enough for a whole year."

"I’m going! I’m definitely going! Even if I don’t have time, I’ll make time!"

"Lawyer Zhang, send the time and place!"

"..."

After Zhang Wei explained, the entire chat group became even more excited. People in Jin City might not recognize Qin Mu. But after the lawsuit against the entire internet, many lawyers in Jin City had come to know him. They might not recognize his face, but his name was already renowned. Everyone knew that the rapid rise of Zhang Wei’s law firm was largely thanks to Qin Mu. He had represented nearly a thousand defendants. So much so that many lawyers were now hoping Qin Mu would initiate an even bigger lawsuit—perhaps sue the entire internet again, anything to send more cases their way and generate some business. With the increasing number of lawyers in recent years, there simply weren’t enough cases to go around. It could be said that Qin Mu had become the bread and butter for many lawyers in Jin City.

"At the nursing home on XX Road in Jin City. The banquet will start promptly at noon, three days from now."

Seeing the lawyers in the group eagerly responding, Zhang Wei quickly announced the exact address. At the same time, he opened another five-hundred-member lawyer group chat and posted the wedding invitation there as well. Just like the first, the second group erupted with excitement, its members clamoring to confirm their attendance. Their enthusiasm surpassed even that of the first group. This was especially true for the seasoned lawyers who knew the ropes; some even handed off their current cases to colleagues. Normally, they rarely had the chance to interact with Qin Mu. This was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was said, for instance, that the Pioneer of Jurisprudence law firm thrived due to its strong personal connections with Qin Mu. Not to mention the abundance of cases they received thanks to him.

"Might as well notify everyone."

Back in his law firm, Zhang Wei, seeing his colleagues’ eagerness, grew excited himself. He sent out Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua’s wedding invitations to all his lawyer group chats.

「Evening.」

Jin City. In a faculty dormitory at a certain school.

Having finished his court case, Jiang Siping lay on the sofa, chatting with his wife about the day’s court proceedings. During the day, his wife hadn’t attended the court hearing because she had to work. In fact, none of the brothers’ family members had attended this court session.

"Probation? It’s good he doesn’t have to serve prison time." After listening, his wife couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. "Giving a thousand yuan a month is only right," she said earnestly. "We should visit Mom more often in the future."

But Jiang Siping rolled his eyes. "She sued me in court!" he said reluctantly. "Why should I go visit her?"

"But... doesn’t it say so in the judgment? That we should spend more time with the elderly," his wife said, holding the judgment and pointing to a few lines.

"That’s all just a formality. I’ll give the money on time each month. At worst, I’ll call her every six months. If I don’t visit, the court won’t know. It’s not like they’re going to monitor me constantly, are they?" Jiang Siping waved dismissively, not taking the latter part of the judgment seriously at all. In his view, his mom had sued him purely for the money. Since the money was being paid, visiting her didn’t matter. If he actually went, they’d probably just argue again, and he’d only be making things unpleasant for himself.

"By the way, your mom... she was taken to your elder brother’s place, right?" Then, as if remembering something, Jiang Siping suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, his wife’s expression darkened. She silently nodded. These past few days, her mother had been seriously ill and had come to Jin City for treatment. Just as she was starting to improve, Jiang Siping complained that the medical expenses were too high and took her home to recuperate. She hadn’t been recuperating at home for long before he declared it was too troublesome to care for an elderly person at home and told his wife to send her to her older brother’s place. Unable to sway him, she had to comply with Jiang Siping’s wishes.

"Don’t blame me," Jiang Siping said, looking at his disheartened wife and patiently reassuring her. "We’re both teachers with so much work every day. Where would we find the time to care for an elderly person? Letting your brother take care of her is the most convenient and hassle-free option."
