What's wrong with this lawyer?!-Chapter 881 - 283: Danger Perception!_2
Chapter 881: Chapter 283: Danger Perception!_2
Everyone is clearly young, but when Brother Tang speaks, he always gives off a parental vibe. I wonder if it’s just my imagination.
“Really?” Old Tang sat up in surprise and said, “I haven’t noticed that at all.”

Just like how people from Shandong Province don’t realize they often speak in inversion, Tang, who time-traveled here, sometimes inadvertently reveals his true self as an older man.
After decades of social ups and downs, even time-traveling and becoming young again doesn’t give him the temperament of a young person.
It’s simply in his nature; no disguise can hide it.
“Alright, Brother Tang, let’s get to the point… Well, it’s not exactly the point, but my Uncle has another idea. He’s planning to rename the law firm to ‘Daming Law Firm’.”
As she spoke, Wang Qingqing shook her head. Her Uncle was all about making changes, and this issue had been tossed around several times.
Now, the term “Law Firm Director Wang Daming” could be found everywhere in the law firm.
It’s just slightly contrary to desires, and it might also be intentional on the part of the young lawyers, but anyway, the de facto Director for the young lawyers is now Tang Fangjing.
This kind of informal address is very important.
Everyone used to call him Director Tang, and now it’s just ‘Director…’
Old Tang laughed upon hearing this: “Is Old Wang really going to do that? Logically he’d have to hold a partner meeting, I’m still a senior partner at the law firm, so he has to get my consent.”
This was a veto power; without the consent of the other partners, the name couldn’t be changed.
Wang Qingqing spread her hands and said, “I don’t know about that, but that’s what I heard.”
Old Tang thought about it, then suddenly laughed, took out his phone, and said, “Hey, Old Song, are you busy? Not busy, right? I have something to tell you, and you must not get angry!”
“Old Wang… Ah, I don’t even know how to tell you, just don’t say it was me who told you, alright?”
On the other side of the phone, Old Song, who was working on a case in another city, said full of interest, “What’s up with Old Wang? Did he get caught going for a ‘health massage’ by his wife?”
“Ah? I didn’t snitch, do I look like a snitch to you? Everyone at the law firm knows how tight-lipped I, Old Song, am, solid as a rock, you know? I would never snitch!”
“Hey, what were you about to say? Just speak, how could I, Old Song, possibly get angry? Everyone in the firm knows how generous I am.”
On this end, Old Tang wanted to laugh but still said, “About Old Wang… he wants to… he wants to remove your name from our law firm…”
Tengda originated from the names Song Tengfei and Wang Daming.
Old Tang wasn’t making things up; changing Tengda to Daming would mean removing Song Tengfei’s ‘Teng’ character, wouldn’t it? There was no problem with what he said, not at all.
However, the concept itself was very different.
As expected, Old Song exploded after hearing this, “What? He’s really going to do that?”
“Old Song, look at you getting upset, I told you not to be angry, there might be some misunderstanding, I’m just trying to be nice, after all, you’re my mentor…”
“That bastard! Now that he’s made money, he wants to kick me to the curb, right? Fine, I’m heading back to Jingzhou right now!”
Old Tang hurriedly said, “Old Song, don’t fight, our law firm needs to be united, you mustn’t say I told you this…”
Click, the call ended, and beside Old Tang, Wang Qingqing fell silent for a moment before finally saying, “Brother Tang, I suddenly feel like you’re more of a schemer than I am.”
Old Tang turned to look at her and said, “Is that so? Then tell me, do you want to see what happens next?”
“Yes!”
“Well, there you go, we’re bored anyway, with nothing better to do.”
Old Tang had indeed been very idle after just completing a big case.
About three hours later, at Tengda Law Firm, a roar suddenly erupted from the Director’s office.
“Wang Daming, oh Wang Daming, I never realized you were so ruthless. What did you say when we started the law firm? Brothers for life, wasn’t it? Now that the firm is making money, you want to push me out?”
That was Old Song’s voice.
Instantly, the lawyers still working on that floor all pricked up their ears, with the more daring ones already at the office door eavesdropping.
“No, Old Song, listen to me explain, I wasn’t trying to kick you out, there’s been a misunderstanding…”
That was Old Wang’s voice, as pitiful as a decent woman caught cheating.
“A misunderstanding? Damn it, so you really want to change the name? What’s this? You’ve already prepared the name change application, and you’re telling me it’s a misunderstanding?”
Lawyers from upstairs and downstairs had all gathered, intrigued by the quarrel between the two partners of the law firm.
Old Tang and Wang Qingqing stood in a corner, finding the situation very stimulating.
As the conversation went on, Old Song suddenly said, “I heard it from Old Tang; if he hadn’t told me, I’d still be in the dark under your deception!”
Old Tang subconsciously felt something was off, furrowed his brow, and thought about slipping away, but the next second, a group of lawyers looked over, their eyes carrying a strange expression.
So, was Tengda beginning its internal strife?
Just as I thought, how could things be so harmonious when it comes to conflicts of interest? Clearly, those previous good relations were all a façade – in reality, those partners must’ve been at each other’s throats.
Then, the office door opened, and both Old Song and Old Wang turned their gazes simultaneously towards Old Tang.
Old Tang managed a strained smile and said, “I said it was a misunderstanding, do you believe me?”
Unfortunately for the onlooking lawyers, the continued developments left them disappointed. The three just exchanged a few words and then went out to dine together.
Reportedly, both Old Song and Old Wang got drunk as lords.
