“So those sick leave slips and diagnosis certificates can be verified at the hospital. They are all true?”

“Yes.”

Jungkook frowned, “In that case, what are you looking me for? Do you think it’s too much money?”

Youngdae was a little frustrated, but Chen did not want to back down easily. He glanced at Jungkook, “Lawyer Jeon, although we don’t know what method Shin used to make a legally valid sick leave slips and diagnosis certificate, we are basically certain that he is cheating on sick leave.”

Jungkook was still lacking in interest, “Even if sick leave is fake, it is not so recognized by law. In fact you illegally terminated the work contract when there was no dispute. I will not accept such meaningless cases.”

Chen paused and played out his mastercard “Lawyer Jeon, the lawyer representing Shin is from ZhaoHui Law Firm.”

There are rumors that Jungkook and ZhaoHui seem to have some bad blood with each other. Chen couldn’t help but give it a try.

Sure enough, Jungkook paused.

Chen  took advantage of the situation and said “This case has affected our company’s goodwill, but if you are willing to take it, I know that we still have a chance to recover.” He said angrily, “Our business at Jin Guang Electronics has always been legal and compliant and we never expected to really encounter labor disputes. The law does not protect us at all! If every employee is as bad as Shin, then how can our company survive? Isn’t it wrong if this kind of malicious employee drags down an enterprise?”

Because of the word “ZhaoHui”, Jungkook raised his head again and looked at Chen  “Since there is no problem in the sick leave slip, why did you think he was fraudulently taking sick leave?”

Youngdae saw that things had changed and immediately explained ” At first, Shin used to take sick leave every two or three days but we didn’t paid much care about it. After half a month he claimed that his tibia fractured to continue his sick leave. This was definitely a problem because his legs did not break at all.

Jungkook stared at Youngdae.

Youngdae cleared her throat “After Shin claimed to have a tibia fracture, I went to visit him as a representative of the Personnel department. Since I did not inform him beforehand and simply went directly to his door, as a result, he wasn’t there. I was just about to leave when I saw him walking home from a long distance. His legs were very normal. It didn’t look like there was any problem at all. But when he saw me, he began to limp.”

Jungkook finally showed interest. ” Did you keep the evidence?”

Youngdae bit her lip, “The time was too short, I wasn’t able to get any evidence. After that, we raided a few more times. Shin learned well and never showed his feet again. But I am sure, he said he had broken a bone and asked for leave. It’s a pity that when he took the rest of sick leave every two and three days before, we didn’t think badly and missed the chance to get evidence.”

Chen sighed. “We also talked with the arbitrator. The other party frankly said that if we go to the court to apply for annulment of the arbitrator award, we have almost no chance of winning. Besides, this case was handled by ZhaoHui’s lawyers. The female lawyer was very strong. I heard that when she was practicing in B City, she hardly lost any lawsuit."

“Then she will lose this lawsuit.”

Chen was stunned.

Jungkook smiled slightly, “I take this case.” After he finished speaking, he looked at the timer, “There is an additional charge for early consultation, 24 minutes and 45 seconds, and the bill will be sent to you.”

“……”

Although Jungkook’s reputation for being an iron cock was well-known, but Youngdae remembered Jungkook’s deadly expensive rates, still not afraid of death to test, “Lawyer Jeon, we can sign a permanent legal counsel contract afterwards, can this 45 seconds fraction be erased for us? It’s weird to have such a fraction to look at ……”

“Yes.”

She didn’t expect that Jungkook would actually agree.

Just as Youngdae was preparing to thank, she heard Jungkook to say without any burden as a matter of course —
“Since you insist on doing this, you can pay the bill at the 25-minute rate.”

“……”

After Youngdae and Chen were sent away, Jungkook called over his assistant, Li Min, “Go to Jin Guang Electronics and have an interview with Kim Shin’s colleagues and immediate superiors. I want to get all the information about Shin before 8 o’clock this evening including his family, personal relationship, home address, external social interactions, personality, preferences, dislikes, and check whether if he has a dog.” He raised his head and glanced at Li Min. “If he has a dog, include his dog’s name as well.”

Li Min was an assistant who had been with Jungkook for 2 years, she did not have a lawyer’s license and was simply doing the job of an assistant at firm, not only responsible for helping Jungkook with the communication work in the case, but also in charge of his personal itinerary.

Jungkook offered his assistants a completely heart-pounding high salary, yet every assistant before Li Min has lasted less than three months before quitting. Before quitting, they would usually have an emotional breakdown, either shedding tears at Jungkook or making a fuss. One was depressed and another claimed to be looking for someone to break Jungkook’s legs.

Li Min was the one who had worked with him the longest and was the one Jungkook was most satisfied with. She never mentioned a pay raise, which simply made Jungkook even more satisfied.

When Li Min put a detailed file of Shin on Jungkook’s desk four hours later, Jungkook’s praise for Li Min had reached its peak. He quickly looked through the materials and quickly unearthed a few important pieces of information.

Shin’s family situation was not very good. He is very poor and his family still owes money. Shin has his father as his only relative. He was a filial son. His father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer six months ago and his condition was not good. Another very interesting point was that he was very scared of dogs because he was attacked by a pack of stray dogs when he was a child.

Jungkook put down the material with satisfaction.

This kind of work attitude and quality of work was what made it worthwhile.

It’s just that, after putting down the materials Li Min didn’t leave immediately.

Jungkook looked up at her curiously, “Is there anything else?”

Li Min pursed her lips, as if mustering up the courage ” Didn’t Mr. Jeon notice anything different about me today?”

Jungkook frowned, “You want to quit?”

“No ……”

“You want to get a raise?”

“Neither ……”

Jungkook seemed to heave a sigh of relief “Then you are no different.”

After that, he lowered his head again, and didn’t take into account Li Min’s emotions. Obviously he only cares about these two issues, and has no interest in the rest. He gave Li Min an expulsion order with his own practical actions – if you neither want to resign nor want a raise, then you can go out.

Jungkook obviously didn’t notice Li Min’s frustration with his behavior at all. She can be called a beautiful woman, decent and good at communicating with people. In the past two years, she has also received many high-paying salary offers from the headhunters, yet she had not left.
She was Jungkook’s most intimate assistant. Apart from Jimin, she is the closest person to Ji Lin. She thinks that Jungkook will see herself one day, but he does not.

She had cut her long hair today, changed her make-up to a completely different style and applied a very sexy lip gloss. However, Jungkook didn’t even notice nor was he even interested in finding out.

He really was extremely handsome and also extremely unsympathetic, extremely cold and even a bit of a jerk of a man. In his world, it was as if no one else mattered but himself.
