Chapter 221: That's it? You had your chance and you blew it!_2
Everything was ready, so Ding Deshui drove to the place where Tang Fangjing was having dinner, and waited outside after parking the car. He didn't know which private room the other party was in, so he just waited outside. After all, people would definitely come out.
And there were also many people in the outside lobby.
On the other side, Old Tang was completely unaware of anything amiss. No matter how powerful the system he used was, it couldn't detect any murderous intent.
At this moment, he had already entered the private room and met "Warm Tea with Wine." Experience more content on My Virtual Library Empire
"Lawyer Tang, Lawyer Tang, hello, hello, it's finally nice to meet you. My name is Wen Weilin, and I'm known as Warm Tea with Wine online." As soon as Old Tang came in, Wen Weilin hurriedly stood up and greeted him.
Old Tang took a quick look at the other party, a man in his mid-thirties, indeed quite young amongst judges.
Smiling and stepping forward, he said, "Hello, hello, you're too kind, Judge Wen. We can just have a casual meal."
Wen Weilin quickly replied, "No, no, that won't do, Lawyer Tang. After all, what happened online... As you know, this is also somewhat of an apology."
"Ah, you also know how difficult it is to manage ground-level stuff, so I had to resort to that strategy. Lawyer Tang, I'm really sorry, I never meant to target you... "
His attitude and tone were extremely sincere.
Old Tang maintained a smile on his face and nodded involuntarily. It seemed that he had indeed misjudged before. This Judge Wen really was an expert who put himself in the midst of things!
Interesting, truly interesting. After all, there were some good people in this vast world.
And so, Old Tang hurriedly said, "No problem, no problem, those are all trivial matters. You see, there are many who talk about me online, but I haven't done anything about it, right? I'm quite open-minded about these matters. Besides, Judge Wen, you were doing it for those cases. What's a few words against me... "
Upon hearing this, Wen Weilin laughed and said, "It's all for serving the people..."
Both parties laughed heartily, looking at each other, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
Of course, inwardly, Lao Wen was ranting like crazy. Do you still have the cheek to say you didn't do anything?
Who was behind those more than a thousand lawsuits? Judges in The Capital are said to be working overtime to the point of exploding, not to mention all those criminal private prosecutions...
Meanwhile, Old Tang felt that this expert didn't seem much like an expert after all, as his words carried a boot-licking vibe. But it didn't matter; no one had set rules about how a true expert should behave...
Old Tang had liver cancer, so it was impossible for him to drink outside. Hence it was really just eating, and of course, everyone had beef.
Replacing alcohol with tea, after the meal went through various flavors, Wen Weilin spoke up again, "Lawyer Tang, to tell you the truth, I don't think I'll be able to continue being a judge. Sigh."
"A few days ago, my superior spoke to me, and to be honest, I don't feel much like staying on either."
Lao Wen was a bit coy; he wanted Tang Fangjing to actively invite him to join Tengda after resigning.
However, what kind of person was Old Tang? Calling him wily was an understatement. In this life, it was only because of the system that he seldom bothered to think, mowing down anything in his way.
But that didn't mean he couldn't understand what was implied.
So, after thinking it over, he said, "Judge Wen, it's okay to resign, but you should think about your future path before doing so, not to act too hastily. Don't you agree?"
Wen Weilin spoke up again, "Indeed. Lawyer Tang, I'm currently planning to become a self-media influencer after resigning, and then I'm thinking of practicing as a lawyer. What do you think?"
"That's pretty good. Let me tell you, Judge Wen, many judges who resign to become lawyers often make it big. Most of your connections are in Lincheng, so you could try there..."
After going back and forth a few times like this, Wen Weilin became anxious. He couldn't tell if the Tang Fangjing opposite him really didn't catch on because he was young or if it was deliberate.
Finally, he said directly, "Lawyer Tang, do you think I could work with you?"
Old Tang burst out laughing when he heard this. You little player, trying to compete with me? Playing the sage online and taking advantage of me. This time, you'll get a taste of your own medicine...
Lao Wen wasn't present at the moment, otherwise, he would definitely tell Wen Weilin, messing with Tang Fangjing was never a good idea—the guy never liked to be at a loss.
"If Judge Wen is willing to come to Tengda, then there's no problem. We at Tengda would be very happy to have you!"
Finally having reached an agreement, Wen Weilin relaxed.
The two chatted for a while longer, mostly with Wen Weilin asking questions. He was very curious about this Lawyer Tang, especially about those incidents involving construction trucks and Judo techniques.
"Actually, I'm not afraid at all. I don't know how long I have left to live anyway. Early death or late, death comes to us all, so it doesn't matter to me."
That was Old Tang's response. Along with his carefree expression and his past experiences, Wen Weilin subconsciously raised his teacup.
Claiming to have done things you haven't, that's called showing off, but talking about things you have actually done, that's called being awesome.
After a satisfying meal and a happy host and guest, Wen Weilin paid the bill, and the two walked out of the private room together.
Meanwhile, in the lobby, Ding Deshui, who had been waiting for half a day, finally started getting excited. Tang Fangjing, you've finally come out.
He couldn't hold back any longer. Memories of his time in the detention center and his son's situation emerged one after another. He was going to kill Tang Fangjing and also ruin his reputation!
Marching forward, he retrieved the shotgun from his bag, chambered a round, and quickly approached Tang Fangjing. Then he yelled:
"Tang! Fang! Jing!"
It was peak dinner time, and the restaurant lobby was especially crowded, but as Ding Deshui shouted, many people looked over.
This had nothing to do with the name Tang Fangjing; when people hear someone shouting, they tend to instinctively look over, even before their brain processes it.
