Wang Qingqing: “o(*￣︶￣*)o”

The two made their way to the Blue Mountain District Court Civil Court No.

3, and upon entering, they found the clerk had already arrived.

“Are you…

Lawyer Tang?

Oh, hello hello, I am the clerk for this trial, you’re quite early, Lawyer Tang.” The clerk greeted enthusiastically.

Normally, clerks don’t show much of an attitude, they’re essentially heartless court-opening machines.

Most of the time, the clerical work of the court is done by the clerk and the judge’s assistant.

...

Old Tang replied with a smile, “Hello, I’m used to getting up early.”

The young clerk jokingly replied, “Then you’ll have to take it easy today, Lawyer Tang, otherwise, it’ll be hard for me to keep up.”

After this brief exchange, Old Tang and Wang Qingqing took their seats on the defendant’s side.

These nameplates for the defendants, sometimes they’re shuffled from one courtroom to another.

If a court is overflowing with people and running short on nameplates, they have to borrow from other courtrooms.

Sitting down to wait, Wang Qingqing suddenly started, “Brother Tang, do you remember that woman who came to our firm for a consultation last time?”

Old Tang responded without a second thought, “You mean the one named Li Wei?

What about her?”

Wang Qingqing smiled and said, “After she surrendered herself, everything went smoothly; that man was convicted of bigamy, and she herself wasn’t prosecuted.

She knows you’re back, and she wants to thank you.”

“That’s unnecessary!” Old Tang waved his hand and said, “She paid for the consultation, it was just a transaction, no need for thanks.”

For Old Tang, it was indeed just a consultation, not even a case to consider.

Waiting always feels eternal, and while killing time, Wang Qingqing nagged Old Tang to recount some amusing tales.

“So, you want to hear a story, huh?

Sure, we’re just waiting around.” Old Tang glanced at the clerk, then began, “Let me tell you about a revocation of gift case.”

Though it wasn’t a marital dispute, it had the same flavor; the affair involved a man and a woman, with the woman being the one to stray, and the man being the pretty-boy type.

When they were in a good place, it was all sweetness and romance, but when things soured, they ended up in court.

The woman sued to take back the gifts she had given previously, and in court, the man claimed that she had forced herself on him!

We all know, married women, they can be ferocious at times.

Right then the female plaintiff was banging the table and yelling, “I forced myself on you?

Don’t flatter yourself, take a good look in the mirror, what have you got that’s worth my while?

Is yours bigger than the judge’s?

Bigger than the clerk’s?”

At this point in Old Tang’s story, the clerk, who had been busy, burst into uncontrollable laughter.

He had been eavesdropping all along, not expecting that Lawyer Tang would tell a story involving the clerk, and…

he just couldn’t hold back his laughter.

Wang Qingqing, laughing so hard she lost all poise, said, “That…

that’s not trying to flatter the judge, is it?

What happened next?”

Old Tang laughed and continued, “Well, the judge was struggling to hold back his laughter too, then he banged the gavel and coughed twice before saying, please refrain from making statements irrelevant to the facts of the case.”

“If I were the judge, I’d say, please refrain from making any other truthful statements unrelated to the facts…”

As the words hung in the air, Wang Qingqing’s continued laughter stripped away any semblance of ladylike grace, and the clerk too was chuckling away, saying, “Lawyer Tang, I wouldn’t have guessed you for a storyteller.”

“I always thought you were the kind of man who is utterly incorruptible, straightforward in both word and deed, and incapable of a laugh.”

That’s actually how many people saw Old Tang, as nothing more than a legal machine, devoid of any warmth.

Old Tang smiled, “You’ve got to create your own fun.

While I’m straightforward in my cases, life needs a bit of flavor, too.”

The legal profession often seems dry and boring, but in practice, it’s fascinating, filled with anecdotes that could go on until next year and still not be finished.

After all, judges are human, and although the law bestows upon them a unique identity in court, at the end of the day…

they’re still human and can’t always hold it in.

Despite the mundane wait, Old Tang’s wit and humor filled the courtroom with a joyful atmosphere, with many inside jokes only those within the legal field would catch and appreciate.

This was also Old Tang’s new approach, he couldn’t become a true legal automaton.

Although he needed to maintain his backbone, adding a splash of color couldn’t hurt.

And then, the courtroom door opened, Old Tang stopped and looked over to see Director Bai leading in a legal affairs lady and a man who looked to be in his forties.

This company certainly had an interesting approach, always sending a different person to each trial.

Considering how their opponent was glaring daggers at him, it was pretty normal.

The last time, Mr.

Wang had done the same, let them stare; after all, it wouldn’t make any difference.

I wish the system would grant me a skill where if someone glares at me for too long, they’d start to lose sanity points, then we’d see who dares keep staring.

After a bit more waiting, to the command of “all rise,” the panel members of the court entered, with the Judgment Chief being a bald…

less hairy middle-aged man.

Observing the other side’s hair, Old Tang couldn’t help but remark to himself, the stress at the grassroots courts is real.

Then thinking of Old Zhou’s full head of hair, he realized the intensity just wasn’t the same; it seemed he’d need to raise the stakes when he got back.

Caught up in these thoughts, the Judgment Chief had already started with the proceedings.
