Chapter 12: I Take Revenge from Morning Till Night!

Although Tang Fangjing knew the moment he saw Supervisor Liu being directly told to "get lost" in court that day, it was likely that the other party might learn to ask for overtime pay, he didn't expect him to actually come to him for help!

The two had previously had a particularly nasty argument.

The key point was he wasn't even a lawyer now, and even if he passed the exam a few days later, there would still be a one-year internship period.

And lawyers cannot handle cases independently during their internship.

But Tang Fangjing actually really wanted to hit back at Bluebird Company again. The second-instance ruling was out, and they just wouldn't execute it. He guessed they thought that since he had resigned such a long time ago, he must be in urgent need of money, and they just wanted to drag out the time to disgust him.

It might sound strange, how could a company owner act so petty?

However, being a company owner has nothing to do with being petty. Many workers who have quit and gone for arbitration have been disgusted like this. The company knows you're in need of money, so they drag it out on purpose for a while.

Workers need to find the next job quickly after resignation, and the compensation is actually their living expenses during this time. The company knows this too, hence they purposely make things difficult.

It's not so much about the money, it's mainly about the life that's almost gone!

With the report of late-stage cancer, the court enforcement bureau will definitely expedite the process, but the other party's behavior made him very uncomfortable, and when he felt uncomfortable, he wanted revenge. It's as simple as that!

Don't bring up those useless things. If they can make a move, why can't you retaliate? There's no such rule, and it's not about being too harsh, it's just why should one be magnanimous?

Should a good person be pointed at with a gun?

Even in his previous life, Tang Fangjing wasn't really what you'd call a 'good person'; he considered himself more of a villain.

It's said that a gentleman seeks revenge, it is not too late for him even after ten years, but for a petty man, revenge is a dish best served immediately, he'd feel uncomfortable even a day late!

After thinking for a while, Tang Fangjing said, "Supervisor Liu, you want me to help you with your lawsuit, but I'm not a lawyer, so I want to ask you, where do you live?"

On the other side, at Bluebird Company downstairs, Supervisor Liu was confused. What does suing have to do with where one lives?

Nevertheless, he replied, "Me? I live in the Bright District, on Lanshan Road Street, why do you ask?"

Lanshan Road Street… Tang Fangjing felt it was quite a coincidence, it seemed he was also in the jurisdiction of Lanshan Road Street, though of course they lived in different communities.

"I'm not a lawyer now, but the community can recommend me as a litigation representative, so if you want my help with the lawsuit, we will have to go see your community to get a recommendation from them!"

The Civil Procedure Law stipulates that communities can make recommendations, of course, in the spirit of the law and according to some judicial interpretations from the Supreme Court, the litigation representatives recommended by the community are generally supposed to be residents of that community.

However, in practice, the specifics vary from place to place, and it's not that outsiders of the community cannot be recommended; it ultimately depends on the court's review.

After all, the legal profession has a very strict entry system, passing an exam, doing a year's internship, and being under unlimited liability by law firms. If just anyone recommended by a community can sue, then the strict entry system of the legal profession loses its meaning.

There was a time when it was just like that, resulting in many people with half-baked legal knowledge representing others in court, making arguments that could make others die of laughter.

But Tang Fangjing believed he could do it. After all, the spirit of the legislation is actually to safeguard citizens' right to sue. Both of them came out of the same company, and he had just finished a similar lawsuit himself; there was no reason not to recommend him.

Just do it. With only a few days left before the legal exam, everything that needed to be prepared had been taken care of. It's like spanking a child on a rainy day, idle as he was, and he could even make some money. Why not?

This proxy recommendation would charge much less than a lawyer. If you just charge as you please, then there's no difference between you and a lawyer. If so, why would there be strict exams and internships?

Soon, the two met up. Supervisor Liu looked at the young man with a pale face in front of him and said, "Young Tang, sorry to let you see this mess, I was utterly devoted to the company before, but when they kicked me out, they didn't even hesitate…"

Tang Fangjing maintained a professional smile and didn't say much. Being a business owner himself, he understood that one always needs to be aware of their place.

Inside the Cotton Lane Community office, Secretary Tian was on the phone.

"Little Song, what's the situation with Yuefu Residential Complex now? Fighting with the property management again? It's about parking again, right? Alright, I'll come over right away. It's one thing after another."

```

Grassroots work is really exhausting, not to mention physically, but emotionally too. What's key is that organizations like community committees don't have much power, but you have to deal with whatever happens...

When residents of the complex feel that the property management isn't doing its job and refuse to pay fees, the management won't let their cars in, leading to daily quarrels...

Just as I was about to head out, I saw two people walking in.

"Hello, what can I do for you?" Secretary Tian asked the two people in front of her.

Liu Jianjun hurried over and said, "Secretary Tian, I'm a resident of our community. My name is Liu Jianjun, we've met before. Well, I have a lawsuit, and I'd like the community to recommend Mr. Tang here as my litigation representative. What do you think..."

Upon hearing this, Secretary Tian looked at Tang Fangjing beside him and then asked, "Is he a member of our community?"

"He doesn't live in our community, Secretary Tian. It's like this..."

Liu Jianjun hadn't finished speaking when Secretary Tian cut him off, "Then that won't do. If he's not from our community, we can't recommend him. I have other matters to attend to. I must be going."

Only because this is in a provincial capital city. In fact, community committees in some places don't even know they have this right. Sometimes when parties seek their help, they plainly say they don't know...

Tang Fangjing followed behind, saying, "You go ahead, I'll follow and explain the situation. Just hear me out first."

Obviously, she was busy and had important things to do. Insisting on stopping her to talk would not be appropriate.

Having said that, Secretary Tian couldn't flatly refuse, so she said, "Alright, we can talk while we walk."

"Here's the thing, Secretary Tian. Liu, I mean old Liu, and I used to work for the same company..."

Secretary Tian was walking and listening, but when she reached the crucial point, she was suddenly stunned.

"You... you can't be the plaintiff from that online case, the one with the exorbitant overtime fees?"

After all, it happened in Jingzhou. It might not be so well known elsewhere, but a lot of people in Jingzhou knew about it.

Mainly because the experience was too legendary, and the maneuvers were simply too slick...

Yes, that's right, the situation where Tang Fangjing reported the verdict had also been covered in the news, and the Bright District Labor Inspection Team even gave an interview.

Going to make a report with a freshly issued verdict as evidence led to a fine on one side and detention for perjury on the other, literally being slick to the point of breaking a leg...

Of course, the arbitration committee next door said they didn't want to comment. After Ma Yao and her colleagues saw the news report, they were almost stunned; this simply didn't seem like an ordinary wage worker. You'd believe them if they said he was an old hand among lawyers!

With a professional smile on his face, Tang Fangjing said, "That would probably be me. So now, old Liu also wants to file a lawsuit, and I'm the most familiar with the case, so he'd like me to be his litigation representative."

Secretary Tian hesitated. She didn't seem to have any reason to refuse such a request...

"Let's go back, and I'll issue a recommendation for you."

Property management squabbling with homeowners... it has been the same old story for days, not causing any delays.

As for evidence, that's even simpler; whenever Tang Fangjing replied to messages in the group chat, old Liu was usually also there talking.

Of course, organizing and calculating still required some time, and a contract for the legal representation had to be signed. Even brothers settle accounts when it comes to business.

A day later, at the Labor Arbitration Committee, Ma Yao yawned as she sat down at the window, only to see a familiar large bag getting slammed down in front of her.

Looking up, she saw a young man with a pale face and a benevolent smile on his face saying, "Comrade, hello, I'm in a hurry."

Ma Yao: "..."

Why is it you again!!!
