Section 3

The doctor said: "I cannot guarantee this; it is best to reach full term. You have just over half a month until full term. If you do not need to be hospitalized, then monitor yourself. If you experience abdominal pain or bleeding, come to the hospital promptly. It is advisable to terminate the pregnancy at 37 weeks, so the child will not be considered premature, and the safety of both mother and child is the priority"

He believes that she is too eager to become the top lawyer in Shanghai

At the hospital, Manjun underwent routine prenatal examinations and an ultrasound

We cannot predict whether the remaining structures of Building Y also used the same cement, but as it concerns human lives, my client demands that the defendant, Tong Group, compensate for the death compensation, funeral expenses, support fees, and mental distress damages totaling 803,047.36 yuan, and requests the court to enforce a halt to the construction plan of Building Y

Upon exiting the courthouse, she saw him on the phone, hastily getting into the car. Once the outcome of the lawsuit was announced, the Y building project would be terminated, and he would soon face a barrage of criticism from shareholders. The stock market would plummet, and even other properties would come under scrutiny, leading the Tong Group to confront a significant crisis

"Lawyer Ruan, please wait a moment." Luo Juan's voice was frail and weak

I am currently not experiencing any bleeding or abdominal pain, and I am not yet nine months pregnant. If I rest in bed, how much longer can the baby be preserved? She clutched Duoduo's hand, her hand trembling.

Oh, she has left and even asked Tong Shao for a sum of money, claiming it is for her escape expenses. I am stunned, how did you end up with such a materialistic aunt

She was panic-stricken; when it comes to matters concerning her child's health, she can never remain calm. This is a common trait among all mothers in the world.

She looked at Luo Juan, who showed no joy in winning the case, and comforted her, saying: "I believe that the Tong Group will soon provide you with the compensation. With this money, you can take your two children back to your hometown, take good care of them, and stop running around. If you encounter any difficulties, just give me a call"

Indeed. I can only make it hard for you like this, and I do not know how to express my gratitude. You are always by my side when I need you the most

In his eyes, she seeks fame; in her eyes, he seeks wealth. Originally, both were individuals of integrity who valued their feelings above all else. This Shanghai, having seen all its splendor, is not as pure and untainted as a small fishing village. She would rather return to the small fishing village and be an ordinary couple with him again

She truly admires Duoduo, saying: "You are still thinking about Yuan Zhengming, don't mention him anymore. He bears an undeniable responsibility for how far Tong Shao and I have come today. I will talk to you about it slowly tonight."

Although this is your second pregnancy, there are currently signs of placental abruption, which is very dangerous. If you experience abdominal pain and bleeding, you must seek medical attention immediately; of course, it would be better to be hospitalized right now, the doctor said

She is very satisfied with this result, yet she is not yet prepared to deal with the issues that arise after this result

"We have overestimated our opponent." She watched his car speed away, and at that moment, she felt concerned for his situation

You have certainly lost to him, he is in the wrong, and you are to act as his proxy lawyer, which is a disgrace to your reputation. As for the personal feelings between him and me, I believe both he and I think that you, as an outsider, have no right to interfere in this matter.

Duoduo walked over, and He Xijia handed Manjun to Duoduo, feeling relieved to leave afterwards

She has always been this way, and I have grown accustomed to it. As long as she helps take care of my house in the small fishing village, it is only right to give her some money

I am not going. Just look at my belly, where can I go to have fun? I will go to the hospital for a check-up later. You go enjoy yourself, but remember, do not disclose anything about work. She said with a smile, observing He Xijia's lively demeanor, which truly resembled her former self.

The judge reminded: "Please, plaintiff, control your emotions so that you can present your next testimony."

Jiang Zhaoyuan was not convinced, and walked up to her, saying: "Ruan Manjun, I did not lose to you; I lost to him. Do not be too complacent; it may seem that you have won, but in reality, you could be the biggest loser. You have brought this lofty man down to your level; do you think there is still any affection left between you?"

As expected by Man Jun, the Tong family group compensated Luo Juan for various losses, and the court also issued a mandatory enforcement order to seal off Building Y and suspend construction

Now one is a legal beauty, and the other is a real estate tycoon, yet they harm each other.

Upon returning to the hotel, the doorbell rang in less than ten minutes

The inability to present evidence is a significant disadvantage

Luo Juan wept uncontrollably in court, recounting the scene of witnessing the collapse of the building and her husband's fall to his death. Asking her to recount it once more would undoubtedly be a further piercing of her heart

This is a situation beyond the law. If he had not been so persistent from the beginning and had promptly halted the Y building project, things would not have escalated to this extent. He used to be such a simple man, drawing comics and content to live a peaceful life in a small fishing village. Why is it that he cannot let go of these illegal profits now? Fortunately, the contractor of the accident building admitted to privately purchasing substandard cement, which spared the Tong family from criminal prosecution. Does he truly not understand that her efforts to terminate the Y building project are meant to save him? If something were to happen with the Y building in the future, would he be able to escape punishment?

Jiang Zhao wished to glance back at Tong Zhuoyao

Manjun stated: "The plaintiff once heard her husband, Jin Jiao, say that he suspected the cement was adulterated. After reporting the issue to the contractor, he was told not to meddle in others' affairs. In a subsequent investigation, a batch of inferior cement was indeed found on site, as evidenced by the inspection report."

Luo Juan's face showed a look of guilt as she hesitantly said: "Lawyer Ruan, you are a good person. In fact, he is also a good person. That 500,000, he gave it to me. It was my greed; I was afraid that if I spoke out, you would not help me. I know he is your husband, and you are about to give birth. I have caused you and your husband to turn against each other. I truly hate myself..." I know he is your husband, and you are about to give birth. I have caused you and your husband to turn against each other. I truly hate myself...

He Xijia held a briefcase and asked, "Master, do you feel that we won too easily today? I haven't even come to my senses yet. We prepared so much material, yet it was all for naught. Jiang Zhaoyuan made several mistakes in court, which ended up benefiting us."

After summoning the witness, there was no sign of the witness.

Man Jun linked arms with Duo Duo and said: "Let's go, now that you, who have lost your youth, must accompany me, a pregnant woman, to the prenatal check-up"

The defendant's lawyer's so-called witness testimonies and evidence are all unverifiable, thus they can only be considered one-sided statements. I request the judge to grant my client justice and to compel the cessation of the construction plan for Building Y

She glanced at He Xijia, who immediately presented the cement composition test report

Haha, what do you mean by being polite? In the future, I will have ten or eight children, and I want you to take care of all of them!

"Come on, for the sake of my goddaughter in your womb, I will take good care of you. However, you must tell me about the story between you and Tong Shao over the past six months tonight. I am so curious about how there exists a phenomenon in this world that can separate two deeply affectionate lovers. Please tell me, so I can use it to break apart other loving couples, like Yuan Zhengming." Duo Duo said with a sly smile.

Man Jun opened the door, and Zhuo Yao stood at the entrance, leaning against the doorframe, as if he had run a long distance. He glared at her with anger, wishing he could swallow her alive.

Where is my aunt?

"Sister Luo, it's alright. You have your own difficulties. It is not easy to support two children on your own, and the money is what you deserve. The issues between him and me do not involve you, so you need not feel guilty. You should go back quickly; the children at home are still waiting for you." She did not want to express any complaints towards this poor woman.

He Xijia won the first lawsuit of his life, still just a child, with his phone ringing incessantly. He said to Manjun: "Master, my classmate asked me to treat them to a meal and karaoke, do you want to go?"

Starting tomorrow, I will suspend work and prepare for childbirth. Doctor, is there a problem? she asked nervously

Jiang Zhaoyuan presented a rebuttal: "According to the judicial investigation responsible for the case, the building that collapsed in the accident is a public facility within the entire Y building plan, consisting of only two floors, and is independent from the Y building. Therefore, it cannot affect the Y building, which meets all construction standards. The contractor supervising the accident building and the construction manager of the Y building are not the same person. The accident building used inferior cement, which is a result of the contractor's personal cost-cutting behavior. The contractor has now been criminally detained, and his personal actions have caused significant losses and negative impacts to the Tong Group. After the incident, the Tong Group actively organized follow-up measures, comforted the workers' emotions, provided treatment for the injured workers, and made an advance compensation of five hundred thousand to the victims' families. The judge can ask Luo Juan if she accepted this five hundred thousand; we have her handwritten receipt here."

After leaving the hospital, Duoduo comforted her: "What the doctor says is always exaggerated. For the past half month, I have been taking care of you without leaving your side. Anyway, you have finished work, so just rest in bed. Come back to the hospital in half a month. Today's B ultrasound shows that the baby is already over 6 pounds."

The progress of the lawsuit has been very smooth, not as difficult as she imagined. Jiang Zhaoyuan, who is usually a victorious general, actually made such a basic mistake by failing to communicate properly with the witness beforehand and daring to announce in court with insufficient evidence

Ah, youth is truly wonderful. This girl must be just over 20, look at her, even her walk is a joyful bounce. And then look at us, standing at the tail end of youth, having long forgotten what it was like. Even Li Duoduo admits that time spares no one; she is no longer the Li Duoduo who once shouted that she would always be a 16-year-old girl. It seems that in Lijiang, the gentle passage of time has allowed her to settle.

Jiang Zhaoyuan lowered his head to look through his evidence file, but could not find the receipt signed by Luo Juan

The doctor carefully examined the ultrasound report while glancing at her professional attire and asked, "Are you still working now?"

"Where do you live, and where is your car?" Duoduo asked while looking around.

The construction manager of Building Y can be summoned to testify, proving that Building Y and the accident building are independent entities, and the original design drawings will also be submitted. Jiang Zhao said this while continuing to search for the drawings

I had prepared the meal and was walking towards Jinjiao, intending to invite them to eat. At that time, the other workers had all come down, but my husband Jinjiao was still on the second floor pouring concrete. I called out to him, and he wiped his sweat and smiled at me; that was the last smile he left for me... Then, I heard a loud 'boom', bricks and stones fell in front of me, dust rose everywhere, and I could see nothing clearly... My husband was also gone. By the time we reacted, there was only a pile of bricks left, my husband... Then, I heard a loud 'boom', bricks and stones fell in front of me, dust rose everywhere, and I could see nothing clearly... My husband was also gone. By the time we reacted, there was only a pile of bricks left, my husband... was dead. " Luo Juan said, weeping bitterly, the scene of the tragedy still vivid in her memory.

Manjun pretended to be relaxed: "Staying in a hotel, I left with nothing, can't you see even this?"
