Chapter 858: Chapter 275 Definitely Because We Are Professional!_3
“Yeah, I’m especially willing, so Judge Zhang, please arrange a time as soon as you can.”

After hanging up the phone, Old Zhang felt a bit suspicious: since when was Tang Fangjing so easy to talk to?
He knew the other party very well.
But it didn’t matter, as long as mediation was possible; other things were secondary. After all, he was a civil court judge, not a criminal court one.
So, in the afternoon, Luo Yong’s side received a call from the court.
“What? You’re saying Tang Fangjing is willing to mediate? Is this… for real?” Luo Yong looked at his staff member, full of disbelief.
...
The employee replied, “That’s what was said. They want us to go to the Intermediate Court tomorrow morning to settle the matter quickly to avoid further trouble.”
Especially after the training company closed down, Sun Yan and the others hadn’t stopped petitioning about the issue; it was a hassle for everyone involved, and they all wanted it over with as soon as possible.
Luo Yong was truly stunned; he could have never dreamed that Tang Fangjing would agree to mediate. Wasn’t that person particularly averse to mediation?
“What do we do now, Boss Luo?”
“Go, let’s mediate, just drag it out as long as possible.”
Despite the unexpected agreement to mediate from the other party, it wasn’t much of a concern. Things were still under control.
In such an atmosphere, the time came to the next morning.
Old Tang got up, looked at the calendar, and thought it was a pretty good day.
Look, it’s suitable for both the death penalty and life imprisonment; that’s great. Marriage, however, is never suitable on any day.
After getting dressed and eating something downstairs, he went straight to the Jingzhou City Intermediate Court.
Upon arriving at the entrance, he took a moment to reflect. It had been a while since his last visit. But the more he looked at it, the more endearing it became.
When Old Tang entered the mediation room, he saw that everyone was already there.
“Lawyer Tang is here, take a seat here. We spoke on the phone yesterday, I’m Judge Zhang,” said Old Zhang.
“Good morning, Judge Zhang. Sorry to have kept everyone waiting,” Old Tang apologized as he took his seat, then looked at the man across from him.
Judge Zhang began the introductions, “This gentleman here is Mr. Tian, the representative of the appellant.”
“Lawyer Tian, this is Lawyer Tang Fangjing from Tengda Law Firm, the representative lawyer of the appellant.”
“Let’s get started then. Mr. Tian, please, you go first.”
The man addressed as Mr. Tian began, “Hello, Lawyer Tang. You’re probably aware of the current situation. My client truly lacks the funds to make the compensation, but we are very sincere.”
“Business is tough these days. My client’s company has suffered too much loss. Full compensation really isn’t possible; all we can do is try our best to compensate…”
“So, is it possible for you to accept fifty percent…”
Old Tang watched quietly, admiring the other party’s performance. He couldn’t help but respect it; it was worthy of an Oscar-level act.
Those celebrities awarded the titles of “Best Actor” or “Best Actress” couldn’t hold a candle to this person.
If he wasn’t so familiar with the case, he might have believed the other side was truly sincere.
This was one reason why the matter was hard to resolve.
In the eyes of the Public Security Authorities, market regulation departments, and the courts, these folks were much better than those who abscond: they didn’t run away, and they maintained a very good attitude and communication.
Under these circumstances, charging them with fraud? It seemed unthinkable.
Old Tang didn’t speak; he just quietly waited for the other side to finish before he said, “Mr. Tian, you’re the representative of Litian Company. It mentions in the indictment that you’re the legal officer for Yinghuang Training Company.”
“One thing I’m curious about, as you said, Yinghuang Training Company is on the verge of bankruptcy liquidation. Do they pay you a salary? How much?”
“Of course, you don’t have to answer. I’m just curious. But if you don’t satisfy my curiosity, I might not be able to sit still…”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Tian across from him was suddenly taken aback. He had prepared a whole stomach of words, but he did not expect to be asked this question at all.
