"As long as the compensation you seek is affordable," Zhang Pei finally came to her senses, as she thought of what Lawyer Sun had taught her, and said, "If it's reasonable, our side can cooperate. I have a hundred thousand RMB with me right now, so you can have it for now. After all, your three children have to go to school and eat." She put the money on the table.
The Wang family calmed down after seeing the money. Mrs. Wang quickly grabbed the money. She looked at her youngest son, signaling something. They probably talked about it beforehand. Mrs. Wang said, "How much can this little amount of money do? Is my son's life only worth a hundred thousand? I heard that your husband works for the government, if he goes to jail... He's going to lose his job. Your daughter goes to Capital City Music Conservation and studies in piano major, right? The tuition must be very expensive. You have a house and a car in the capital city, so you must be very rich." Mrs. Wang had a look of greed as she said this. She raised her left hand and put up three fingers. "Three million is the base line."
TL Note: Capital City Music Conversation is Liu Man's school
"How could we possibly have so much money?" Zhang Pei stared.
Lawyer Sun frowned.
The Wang family had already learned the details of her family. They knew all about Liu Chenyu's job, where they lived, and where Liu Man went to school.
TL Note: Remember that Liu Chenyu is Liu Man's father?
The Wang family had just arrived at the capital a few days earlier. How did they gather so much information in such a short time?
Lawyer Sun thought about it and looked towards the other lawyer named Zhao Feng. The opposing lawyer even smiled at him.
After the incident, Zhang Pei inspected all of their properties. She and her husband only had about thirty thousand RMB. If she sold her car, she'd be able to gain another twenty thousand. But that'd be nothing compared to a million RMB! Liu Man spent money without control and bought everything she wanted. The couple couldn't save any money with a daughter like that. Now, Zhang Pei regretted spoiling Liu Man. She didn't even know what Liu had spent the money on.
"Your house is on the center of the capital, right?" Wang Zhihua also went to college in the capital city, so he knew a lot about the prices of the houses there, "Sell your house, and you'll definitely have enough money."
Zhang Pei, of course, didn't agree, "If we sell our house, then where will we live?"
"Well, that'd be your problem. My brother was so young. He could've had a longer life, not to mention he had three children waiting to be fed. How do you think that this can be solved? A million RMB per child wouldn't be that much." Wang Zhihua retorted back.
The Wang family's greedy looks completely angered Zhang Pei, "Don't even think about it, we'll never agree."
Zhang Pei grabbed Liu Man's hand and said to Lawyer Sun, "We're not negotiating anymore, let's go."
After she spoke, she walked out without even turning her head. Liu Man walked with her. Apon walking out of the room, she turned and glanced at the opposing lawyer named Zhao Feng. He had a confident smile on his face.
The first negotiation was a failure.
After leaving the Wang family's sight, Zhang Pei yelled out, "They're like a lion opening its mouth! Three million! Is their son even worth three million?!"
Zhang Pei was too furious, so out of spite, she screamed those rather unpleasant words.
Lawyer Sun said, "Even if Wang Chunhua isn't worth that much, Chenyu is."
