Chapter 702: Chapter 258 Qin Mu: It Seems There Are Mountains Beyond Mountains and People Beyond People_3

At that time, there were indeed several staffers from the nursing home present who had introduced her to the place. But those people were in cahoots with Zhang Qingyuan and Qin Mu. They would not possibly speak on her behalf.

"Don’t speak so definitively." Liu Chengqiang revealed a mysterious smile. "In the face of interests, there are no permanent enemies."

Cheng Chuxiao blinked, still somewhat unable to understand.

"Miss Cheng, what Lawyer Liu means is, we can devise a way to win over these staffers so that they can testify in court and prove that our side is not entirely at fault," Wu Yun stepped forward from the side and patiently explained. "And to win these people over, we’d need to pay a small price."

The method they proposed was actually an unorthodox strategy, starting with Zhang Qingyuan’s alleged instigations. Regardless of whether he instigated or not, as long as the witnesses in court testified that he did, they could turn the tables!

"A price? Do you mean... paying them off?" Cheng Chuxiao swallowed, quickly catching on. Her breathing couldn’t help but quicken.

The method proposed by these two lawyers... The more she thought about it, the more reliable and feasible it seemed. As long as these people turned against them... This civil lawsuit could be won! This might be the only way to win!

She took a deep breath and then asked, "So, what should we do now?"

"It’s simple. We’ll handle contacting the staffers from that time, but as for the funds..." Liu Chengqiang pretended to ponder, subtly hinting.

Cheng Chuxiao quickly said, "I understand. I’ll take care of the money." As long as it could avenge her Binbin, no amount of money was an issue!

"We’ve roughly estimated that there are about four staffers. At 50,000 per person, that would total 200,000." Liu Chengqiang and Wu Yun glanced at each other again, then stated the figure.

And without even thinking, Cheng Chuxiao agreed.

Subsequently, the three of them began to discuss the matter in detail, going over the specifics for the court session the following day. As for how to win over these staffers, that responsibility was given to Liu Chengqiang and Wu Yun.

With the court session imminent, Cheng Chuxiao now needed to focus on her defense strategy. She absolutely could not afford to become verbally disorganized, lest the opposing lawyer exploit any loophole for an attack.

"Miss Cheng, we’ll handle the matter of winning over the witnesses today. Tomorrow in court, you need to focus on the argument that our dog was provoked and retaliated," Liu Chengqiang instructed. "No matter how the opposing lawyer interrogates you, you must remain steadfast. As for everything else, leave it to us."

Cheng Chuxiao listened to the instructions from the two lawyers, nodding continuously. Her previously dejected mood gradually improved. She felt as though she could see a glimmer of hope. Even if the opponent was Qin Mu, there was still a chance of winning!

"That’s great! With Lawyer Liu and Lawyer Wu handling the case, Qin Mu will finally meet his first defeat tomorrow!" After the discussion ended, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement. All the details were settled. It would be difficult for Qin Mu not to lose.

Seeing her reaction, Liu Chengqiang and Wu Yun also smiled. Although they were unsure of Qin Mu’s skills as a lawyer, as long as they won over those employees... no matter who the opposing lawyer was, they stood no chance of winning! They had used this method to prevail in many seemingly unwinnable civil cases they had previously handled. Having been lawyers for so many years, they had long realized one truth: beyond the law, there were always unorthodox strategies! As long as it was legally acceptable on the surface, anything was possible!

「Jin City.」

「The Nursing Home.」

「The Legal Advisor’s Office.」

"I’ve finally paid the litigation fees," Qin Mu said, sighing in relief as he leaned back in his office chair and stretched lazily.

It was the third day since he submitted the lawsuit on behalf of 13,000 people. If he hadn’t managed to pay the litigation fees by today, his petition would have been rejected and not processed. Luckily, the bank had expedited the loan approval, and 80,000,000 had been transferred to his account. This enabled him to complete the payment before the afternoon.

Next, he would focus on waiting for the court’s notification to accept the case. As for tomorrow’s hearing, he hadn’t really prepared much. It was a civil case, which posed no difficulty for him. The legal statutes were precise and clear. The opposition stood no chance of winning. Paying compensation was certain; the only question was how much.

Afterward, he took out his phone and specifically logged into the 2,000-member rights advocacy group he had joined. The group was formed by a pet blogger named "Little Tian’s Pet." He had managed to infiltrate it and obtain some useful information. With the hearing approaching, he planned to check if there were any new advocacy efforts.

However, he discovered that the group chat mainly contained casual conversations, with members occasionally sharing pet care experiences. After several days, the initial fervor had cooled somewhat. Just as he was about to exit, he suddenly saw a pinned announcement from the group owner, "Little Tian’s Pet": 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"I have to share some outrageous news with all of you! Binbin’s owner has been sued by this nursing home! The hearing is tomorrow. Please pay attention to this matter. We mustn’t let the wicked run rampant and the good suffer!"

At the end of the announcement, there was a link to tomorrow’s court hearing, urging everyone to watch the live stream at 9:00 a.m.

Just a few minutes after the message was posted, activity in the group instantly skyrocketed.

"What the fuck! That’s utterly shameless! How dare they sue? And demand compensation from the victim?"
