Draw the Line 底线 Episode 13

Zhang Peng confessed that he did drink with Meng Wei after the dinner, and told him that Liu Bo and Wang Yanfei wanted to pry the bill, but he never treated him as his own, and didn't look down on him at all. It was also because of the targeting at the workplace that Meng Wei drank a lot of alcohol, and swore that even if everyone looked down on him, he would prove it to everyone. Zhang Peng was moved by these words.

However, Zhang Peng's wife tried to stop her husband emotionally, but to no avail, she couldn't help crying and scolding that his family had no money to compensate. Meng Wei's mother knew the difficulties of Zhang Peng's family, and also knew that Zhang Peng's nature was not bad. She said on the spot that no compensation was needed, and the two parties finally agreed to mediate.

After the fall from the building, Fang Yuan stopped Zhang Peng alone and told him that if he really felt ashamed of the Meng family, he would try his best to stop drinking and live a good life in the future. Back at home, Fang Yuan apologized to his wife again, and then let go of his prejudice against drinking. His wife Li Xiaole was very pleased, so he left the medicinal wine sent by his parents.

There has never been a breakthrough in the case of disputes between the franchisee and the head office. Ye Xin was always unwilling, and took the initiative to ask Zhou Yi'an how to help the couple. Zhou Yi'an accidentally mentioned the format contract, which happened to wake up Ye Xin, and hurried to the milk tea shop to persuade them not to withdraw the lawsuit. Guan Shucheng considered and decided to trust Ye Xin again and again.

However, Zhou Yi'an felt that Ye Xin's way of handling this matter was somewhat inappropriate, not to mention whether there was a problem with the contract, but from the situation of the two young people, the top priority was to solve the problem of livelihood. However, Ye Xin believes that retreating at this moment can only make capital more rampant, and takes Li Fangning's case as an example, insisting that the parties protect their own rights and interests.

Zhou Yi'an knew that it was useless to persuade Ye Xin, so she simply ended the topic and reminded her to be fully prepared. The next day, Ye Xin went to the main store, and found that the store held a dance to win milk tea. One of the girls threw the milk tea into the trash after winning the milk tea. Ye Xin inquired in detail in the past, only to find out that the main store was looking for them as a trustee, and each time they would be paid 200 yuan.

In the next pre-trial mediation, Ye Xin specially asked the girl to testify. Unexpectedly, the girl changed her confession temporarily, denying that the tea was hired for false marketing. Not only that, the relevant evidence given by Ye Xin has been rejected by Zheng Liang one by one, and even the surveillance video was played to criticize Guan Shucheng for the whole process of signing the contract.

Seeing Zheng Liang leave arrogantly, Ye Xin could no longer think of a solution, so he had to suggest that Guan Shucheng and Yan Nana withdraw the lawsuit, at least to avoid paying unnecessary huge liquidated damages. Guan Shucheng lost his mind in an instant, rushed out of the court with a hammer and went straight to the head office, Ye Xin hurriedly came forward to stop him, and after some hard persuasion, he finally calmed down his emotions.

This matter brought a lot of frustration to Ye Xin. Fang Yuan asked Ye Xin whether she was pursuing the justice of others or her own. She was speechless. Perhaps Ye Xin didn't even realize that when she was pursuing and safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the weak, she actually subconsciously preferred self-satisfaction, so she did not take into account the real situation of the client at all.

In many cases, when the odds of winning are slim, it is the most appropriate way to stop losses and start life again as soon as possible. In the previous workplace sexual harassment case, Ye Xin and Li Fangning insisted on the same point of view, hoping to change the status quo of society by speaking up. In fact, there is no problem at all.

However, Fang Yuan felt that in the case of the milk tea shop, the livelihood issue was the most important thing for the parties to solve. It was precisely this point that was ignored by Ye Xin, and then with enthusiasm, he tried to persuade the parties to follow his own pace. Ye Xin took Fang Yuan's words seriously, and it didn't take long for him to meet Guan Shucheng and Yan Nana in the court who had applied for withdrawal of the lawsuit, but unfortunately the two of them had become alienated and indifferent towards her.

Song Yufei brought gifts for everyone when she returned from travel, and invited them to have dinner together to learn about recent events. Every judge goes through this period. Even if they are sad, they must adjust their emotions as soon as possible, and continue to accept new cases after self-digestion. Fang Yuan took care of Meng Wei's mother's loneliness, so he applied for legal aid from the hospital, and the others also comforted Ye Xin, making her feel relieved gradually.

On the way back, Zhou Yi'an took the initiative to talk about being a legal assistant for Master, and he also encountered difficult things. The plaintiffs are overseas Chinese. Their ancestors were wealthy businessmen at that time. They left the mainland before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and their descendants took root in the United States. As for the defendant, it was a very old lady who married a wealthy businessman as a concubine when she was young. Originally, the wealthy businessman promised to come back before he left, but this wait is for most of his life.

Because the descendants of the wealthy businessmen were in urgent need of money, they decided to sell their ancestral home in China and sue the old lady to move out as soon as possible. Only after receiving the summons did the old lady know that the wealthy businessman was full of descendants and passed away in his old age abroad. Fang Yuan was deeply touched and personally approached the dean to apply for an extension of the approval, hoping to accompany the old lady to spend her 100th birthday in her ancestral home.

Later, the old lady left her ancestral home and went to a nursing home. When she died, she held a photo of her and a wealthy businessman in her hand, saying that she had no regrets in her life. It is in this case that Zhou Yi'an understands that the law should have standards, and it is necessary to do things well within the standards. This is the temperature that a judge should have.
