I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 774: Gold Medal Lawyer
So, just by seeing this one point, Ye Chen felt that all his efforts had not been wasted, because, after all, he had already gained some control over certain matters here. Therefore, if he wanted to continue, it should be somewhat simpler than he had imagined.
Ye Chen took a deep breath and then knocked on the door. Soon he heard Guo Hongyu’s response, and finally, he pushed the door open and walked right in.
Guo Hongyu originally thought that there were still others in the company who hadn’t left, so he came over to check on himself; indeed, such incidents had often happened before.
After all, some people indeed wanted to ingratiate themselves with the chairman, but the old employees wouldn’t even spare them a glance. Therefore, Guo Hongyu felt that the people who came must be a group of young people, at least those who supported him.
However, when he looked up and saw Ye Chen appearing before him, a very excited expression appeared on his face, and then he quickly stood up from his seat and rushed over.
He tightly grabbed Ye Chen’s hand, looked him up and down as if he hadn’t seen him in a long time, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with Ye Chen, Guo Hongyu was relieved.
"Big Brother Ye Chen, I knew you would definitely be able to make it out, and besides, if Grandpa promised something, then there should be nothing impossible. How are you, did they give you a hard time in there? When did you come here? Why didn’t Grandpa tell me?"
"Heh, you don’t need to worry so much now. I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but you can’t ask them all at once. Come, it’s okay, sit down. We still have some time, I can talk with you slowly."
Then, both of them walked to the sofa, and then sat down on the left and right sides of it.
"I just got back to the office, probably less than 10 minutes ago, and I was bailed out by the old man in the evening. So, they did not trouble me inside; I was just cooperating with their investigation."
"Okay, so how are things now, and what did Grandpa tell you? Did he say if we could win this lawsuit?"
"That, I’m not sure about, and I don’t know much about it either. I only saw two people, one wearing nearsighted glasses, and the other wearing black-framed glasses. One of them had a slicked-back hairstyle, and the other’s hair was somewhat flaky on top. He asked me to call him Lawyer Guo, the other, I’m not sure?"
"What, you mean those two people?"
When Guo Hongyu heard this, he seemed very surprised, just staring wide-eyed, then looked up at Ye Chen curiously and asked.
"Yes, exactly those two. And, I think they had quite distinctive styles, though by their ages, they should probably be in their fifties or sixties."
"Let me tell you, those two are top-notch lawyers, and they rarely make public appearances. They were very close to Grandpa in the early days, but in the past decade or so, they have never inquired about the company’s affairs."
"You mean, they are not members of the company’s legal team?"
"No, they aren’t part of any legal team, so their reputation is out there, but, there is fundamentally no one who could hire them. It is said that they had made enough money and retired from the Martial Arts World more than 10 years ago."
"So, are you saying these people are very powerful, right? Otherwise, I guess Grandpa wouldn’t easily ask them to come out of retirement."
"Not just very powerful, let me tell you, they are extremely skilled. I’ll tell you, in the past few decades, there hasn’t been a single case they’ve handled that they lost. So, if these two people join forces, I believe, you certainly won’t have any problems."
For some reason, when Guo Hongyu said this to him, it was as if Ye Chen had taken a tranquillizer, and his heart really started to settle down.
If, indeed, it could be done this way, he believed, there wouldn’t be anything that could stump him, all matters could be smoothly proceeded with, and naturally, there was no need to worry about those additional concerns anymore.
"Okay, then if that’s the case, then naturally the awareness couldn’t be any better, then all right, I’ll follow your suggestion and continue doing what we’re doing. I believe, there’s not much more I need to do in this area,"
"As for these issues, you don’t have to worry about them. Now, the key question is, how should we resolve the situation over there? Moreover, this matter cannot always be left hanging. Also, you’ve injured so many of their people, isn’t there also a need for some compensation? Oh, right, I almost forgot to give this to you."
As he spoke, Guo Hongyu stood up, and then walked towards the office building. Ye Chen watching his departing figure knew what this guy was thinking at this moment.
But, he only knew that whatever Guo Hongyu did was biased towards him, and his trust in him had already turned into a dependency.
Sometimes, this feeling was actually very good, but sometimes when acting on it, it truly made him feel very tired.
After all, he couldn’t always rely on this, nor could he keep doing so many things forever. Eventually, there would come a day when he had to let Guo Hongyu fly solo, it was just that he didn’t know when that day would truly arrive.
After waiting for about a minute or so, he saw Guo Hongyu pull out a piece of paper from a drawer, then came over and placed it in front of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen just looked down briefly and instantly recognized it was a cheque.
He picked it up, looked at it in surprise, and it was actually for a full five million.
"What, what does this mean?"
"It doesn’t mean anything, and besides, you’ve injured so many people, and I’ve also seen some actual situations. Although there were quite a few injured, I feel there was no severe harm, giving each person a little compensation should be able to settle this matter. Furthermore, aren’t these people making a fuss all for money? You take this money, and when the time comes, negotiate a good price with them, if it’s not enough, I’ll write you another cheque."
