Chapter 236: Chapter 113: I’ll Sue the Court When I Go Mad!
Chi Yan said very seriously, "I\'ll listen to you when it comes to the law, but in the hospital, you have to listen to me, or your body won\'t be able to take it."
"Alright, alright, I\'ll listen to you, is that okay now?"
Old Tang surrendered with his hands up, then watched as Chi Yan began to carefully change his dressing. You know, this feeling is actually quite nice.
Chi Yan\'s movements were very careful, the nurses gave him a change of dressing, and this depended on the person.
Anyway, for Old Tang, Chi Yan\'s touch was always the gentlest. In fact, she was growing more and more admiring of this young man in front of her, who was about her age.
She had always called him Lawyer Tang, and given that he spoke and acted with extreme maturity, it felt like he was a generation older. After being in the hospital for a while, she realized Lawyer Tang was genuinely young...
The reason she was growing increasingly admiring was mainly that Brother Tang\'s willpower was truly strong.
Changing dressings could basically be considered one of the most painful things in the hospital. More painful than that would probably be the dressing changes in proctology, the kind where basically no one cuts in line.
And Lawyer Tang had not shown a hint of pain from the beginning to the end, making one suspect his nerves were made of steel.
"Okay, Brother Tang, we\'re done. Rest for now, I\'ll come back later," Chi Yan looked at Old Tang and said with a smile.
Although her smile was not clear because of the mask, she was indeed smiling.
Old Tang nodded his head and looked out the window, feeling that he didn\'t want to simulate feelings of hurt anymore. Lying in the hospital was truly agonizing.
He said he couldn\'t get out of bed in his current condition, and had to use a catheter...
If it hadn\'t been for the system panel becoming increasingly feature-rich, Old Tang felt he might actually go crazy.
As time passed day by day, Old Tang\'s recovery was getting better and better. It was heard that Jingzhou\'s Second Hospital and Handong Medical University\'s First Affiliated Hospital started a war of words.
Guo Shengfang\'s appeal, unsurprisingly, was directly rejected by the Intermediate Court of Jingzhou.
For a case like this that had stirred the public\'s opinion, don\'t think too much; if a sentence was handed down, it definitely wasn\'t just the judge\'s decision.
The court is the last barrier in the whole judicial system; once it reaches the court, the matter can be defined.
Guo Shengfang and Guo Erdan started serving their sentences, and Old Tang, if there were no surprises, had another half a year of life.
Zhao Lixiang\'s case added half a year, and this case here added another half a year.
It seemed as if he could live another year, but in reality, just the pre-trial procedures alone had taken him three months...
By the time of the first and second trials, it was almost May, meaning, for the half-year life award, he had spent four months in procedures.
Adding it to the previous life balance, it was three years and six months.
So now with a little more life to squander, Old Tang felt if not for that, he might have stayed in the hospital until his death.
The days in the hospital were boring, even though Chi Yan was very beautiful and came to take care of him and chat every day, which was really nice.
But as time wore on, it got boring, so Old Tang started studying again.
You\'re idle anyway, and I, Tang Fangjing, am a person after all. As a lawyer, you must keep learning until the end. It\'s very important to charge up.
Criminal law was his bread and butter, so he had to study it well, but the Civil Code and Labor Law couldn\'t be neglected either.
Most of those who privately messaged him for help with their rights were labor-related issues.
There\'s a saying that for every crafty move, there\'s a counter move cleverer still. The shady practices of some companies these days left Old Tang dumbfounded.
For example, in one place, to avoid potential labor risks, they actually had delivery drivers register as sole proprietors...
This way, the relationship between them and the delivery drivers becomes a partnership, and kudos to those legal teams for coming up with such ideas, genius indeed.
The rest, like the multilayered doll-like situations, don\'t need mentioning: various types of labor subcontracting, various contracts, layered all the way down.
If no issue arises, fine, but once a problem occurs, the workers are bewildered: Who the hell am I working for? Asking around, no one seems to be in charge.
It\'s not just the workers; many lawyers can\'t sort out the legal relationships involved.
In such time, Old Tang, like a sponge, kept absorbing knowledge.
He stayed in the hospital for a full four months.
Four months might not seem long, but on the internet, his name had already been forgotten.
It\'s not that netizens have a short memory, it\'s just that the pace of society is too fast. In four months, countless things could explode on the internet.
Netizens couldn\'t be expected to remember everyone; at most, they might suddenly recall someone upon seeing a name and wonder, oh right, what is this person doing now?
However, after four months, Old Tang\'s injuries had fully healed.
In the second month of treatment, he was transferred to a general ward, and then... Chi Yan followed him there.
She still took care of him every day, not letting any other nurse intervene.
Old Tang... naturally had nothing to say. He was terminally ill, but not blind.
And today, September 6, Old Tang was finally able to be discharged from the hospital.
Old Song came over from Jingzhou especially to help with the discharge process.
Chi Yan accompanied him throughout, but the young girl was not in a good mood.
She had nearly gotten used to it after such a long time. Now that Tang Fangjing was being discharged, she suddenly felt a little lost.
But, everyone has their own life, and a man like Tang Fangjing was destined not to be ordinary.
"Brother Tang, you\'ll come back to Jingzhou again, won\'t you? You can\'t just spend a few months with us and then run away after getting out of your hospital gown, right?" Chi Yan said with a smile at the entrance of the hospital.
