Although Lisa and Jungkook were still college students, Lawyer Cheng was obviously very serious and sincere about this cooperation. He insisted on sending Lisa and Jungkook downstairs.

However, as soon as he got downstairs, Lisa was frightened by the huge banner at the entrance of the office building. The people holding the banner were several middle-aged men in their forties, with faces full of helplessness and indignation.

"Wang Yue, a fraud lawyer from Ruiyi Law Firm, has no professional ethics and cheats people out of their money!"

There was a line of big words on the banner. Because hanging a banner at the entrance of the office building would affect the image of other companies in the entire building, the building security guard negotiated with these middle-aged men. However, after a while, the anger of these middle-aged men who were defending their rights, which had been calmed down with great difficulty, burned even more fiercely.

They yelled at a man in a suit who was passing by: "Wang Yue! Give us our money back! You said at that time that we would win the lawsuit and gave us all kinds of assurances, but what happened in the end? We lost miserably! Pay us our lawyer fees!"

Lisa looked at the man in the suit following the voice. The other party was still very young, about 30 years old, with a slicked-back hair and a pair of glasses, looking greasy and shrewd. He happened to pass by the gate and was walking towards the elevator without looking away. It was obvious that he was trying hard to ignore the rights protection banner.

One of the middle-aged rights defenders finally broke through the security guards' blockade and ran towards Wang Yue. He grabbed Wang Yue's hand tightly, and his voice was already pleading: "Give me back the money! That's the college tuition I want to leave for my daughter! Didn't you tell me that you can win? I don't care whether I win or lose now, just give me back the lawyer's fee."

But Wang Yue shook off the other's hand fiercely: "When did I promise you that I could win?"

"Didn't you say that when you first met me? You also said that you wouldn't charge me for the lawyer's fee if I didn't win! Now that you lost, you give me back the 10,000 yuan lawyer's fee I paid! Our family really can't afford to lose this money."

"No lawyer can guarantee whether a lawsuit will be lost or won. How can I make such a guarantee? The outcome of the lawsuit depends on how the judge determines the facts and applies the law. I told you all this long ago. You are now slandering me for promising that you will win. Then show me some evidence! Do you have a recording?"

The middle-aged man was so angry that he trembled all over: "Why would I think of recording? But you clearly said that..."

Wang Yue shrugged his shoulders: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. You can slander me all you want with empty words like 'return the lawyer if you can't win.' "I have never heard of such a thing. I have the written contract of our lawyers. It says that there is a risk of losing the case, but I provide professional legal services, which means I have to pay for it. The lawyer's fee is not refundable. It is clearly written in two copies. You also have one. Go home and take a good look at it."

The middle-aged man was just an ordinary person without legal expertise. He didn't understand that verbal promises could not be proved without words or recordings. Many ordinary people often ignore the validity of contracts in life and sign contracts without reading them carefully.

The final result was naturally inability to protect rights. After being intercepted again by several security guards, Wang Yue smoothed his hair very casually and prepared to walk into the elevator. Before entering, he saw Lawyer Cheng standing at the door with his peripheral vision. The two of them were obviously not on the same page. He glanced at Lawyer Cheng, and even gave some eyes to Lisa and Jungkook, and then smiled provocatively and left.
