What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Guo Shenglong was still being interrogated, and at the entrance of Jingzhou Second Hospital, Old Wang and Old Song had already arrived.

"Hello, Chi Yan, right? Myself and our... director have already reached the entrance."

As they were speaking, they saw a girl waving at them in front: "Are you Lawyer Song and Lawyer Wang? I'm Chi Yan, come this way!"

Old Song and Old Wang hurried over to ask, "How is Tang Fangjing now?"

Chi Yan shook her head and said, "The situation is still unclear. He has been in surgery for several hours and no news has come out yet. Director Wang, could you sign here, please?"

Old Wang nodded his head, as he was well-accustomed to this task.

After signing, Old Wang went straight to the window where he now acted as an unemotional signing and paying machine.

But for this matter, countless law firms across the country were envious of him, all wishing they had a lawyer like Tang Fangjing in their firm.

The response from the staff at the window left him stunned.

"Tang Fangjing's deposit has already been paid by someone else, our hospital's nurse. She paid it."

Chi Yan had directly paid 20,000 yuan, all the money she could come up with at the moment.

Upon hearing this, Old Wang returned to the doorway of the ward and said to Chi Yan, "Did you pay the money for Old Tang? What's the meaning of this? Our firm has insurance, there's no need for you to bear the cost."

"Lawyer Wang, Lawyer Tang was injured because of me…" Chi Yan began to speak.

She had been crying for a long time, and now the area around her eyes was slightly red. Paying the money for Tang Fangjing hadn't involved any deliberation on her part.

She just felt it was something she ought to do herself.

"He also collected your legal fee. Listen to me, I will return your money to you later, and you don't need to worry about the rest. Our Tengda has our own rules," Old Wang said, waving his hand dismissively.

He didn't want to leave any room for neglect regarding Tang Fangjing. After all, if this time an interested party helped with the expenses because he was injured, what would happen if he got hurt again?

What if the interested party had no money?

Wouldn't public opinion on the internet attack the interested party then?

That definitely couldn't happen, so they decided to establish a rule straightaway—all medical expenses for Old Tang would be covered by the law firm!

Time slowly passed, and some familiar faces started to appear outside the hospital.

The online public opinion was already boiling, and even the Jingzhou Lawyers Association released a statement: They must crackdown hard on actions that harm lawyers!

Yes, this time Jingzhou's Lawyers Association and related departments were relieved.

Look, this incident happened in Jingzhou, so it has nothing to do with us in The Capital!

However, netizens didn't care about such distinctions—whether Jingzhou or Jingzhou, aren't you all in Handong?

Up to now, there have been three incidents of attacking lawyers in Handong; can you still say there are no issues in Handong?

Jingzhou: "...", please stop the criticism.

In such circumstances, during the early hours, the official account of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau issued a blue-ground announcement.

"... The criminal suspect Guo, extremely dissatisfied with the criminal complaint filed by Chi and Lawyer Tang, intended to block Chi at the entrance of the hospital, but instead ran into Lawyer Tang."

"After a disagreement arose, Guo physically assaulted Tang, who is still in critical condition."

"We urge the general public to take note, the internet is not a lawless place, do not believe nor spread rumors..."

This announcement, once released, instantly made the already frenzied internet even more explosive.

Jingzhou didn't hide anything this time, and clearly laid out the cause, process, and result of the entire incident.

In the blink of an eye, the comments under the announcement grew in crazy numbers.

"So Lawyer Tang did this to combat deceitful scammers, right? After such an effort for a single case, he ends up hospitalized because of the other party, I don't even know what to say, you guys talk."

"What else can we say? If Lawyer Tang doesn't make it, I suggest sending the assailant down too. Shouldn't such deceitful behavior be severely punished?"

"I just hope Lawyer Tang is okay..."

If this had happened before, fellow lawyers might have questioned whether it was for fame, but now, basically no one was questioning anymore.

After all, what's a lawyer's fee compared to the actions of the other party?

One or two times you might say he was showing off, but what about the third or fourth time?

This kind of person, who doesn't seem to care about his own life, made the whole legal profession feel the pressure of competition.

Now, when some clients look for a lawyer, they would say, "You are all lawyers, why is Lawyer Tang so much more responsible than you?"

How could they respond to that, they were at a loss for words...

Even the most contentious netizens didn't dare to argue this time. This Lawyer Tang seemed to truly have a noble soul.

Such a person exists in this day and age?

Two hours after the Jingzhou Public Security announcement, a doctor came out of the operating room.

"The rescue was very successful, the patient's condition has stabilized, but his body is too weak. If there are complications like infections, it might get dangerous."

"So this time, he will need to stay in the hospital for a longer period."

Hearing this, Old Wang and Old Song instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, thank you, you've all worked hard. How about I treat everyone to a late-night snack?" Old Wang suggested.

"No need, no need, you should also get some rest," the doctors quickly refused.

This surgery was extraordinary, even involving consultation from experts in The Capital through video to ensure its completion.

At any rate, it would definitely be of academic significance.

Old Song and Old Wang planned to go back and rest for a while; they were getting on in years and really couldn't handle staying up all night.

Zhao Bin, who had arrived a long time ago, had been waiting outside. He didn't leave; he felt he wouldn't be able to sleep knowing that Lawyer Tang was still in danger.
