Chapter 77:

After Bao Rui's episode, Cheng Yao sat down, took a deep breath, and began to read her next case.
The person involved in this case is Lin Fengjuan, 25 years old, only one year older than Cheng Yao. At first, she went to the Legal Aid Center under the Lawyers Association for consultation. When the staff found that she was eligible for legal aid, they helped her apply for legal aid. Only when the case was assigned to Cheng Yao.
It’s just that the information in the registration materials from the Legal Aid Center is quite concise. It can only be learned that Lin Fengjuan’s parents are migrant workers and their family circumstances are difficult. Lin Fengjuan married a year ago and gave birth to a child two months ago. Divorced a month ago.
As a result, half a month ago, the child was found to have a serious heart disease during the physical examination and must be operated on, but he didn’t have the money to pay for the operation. He put together a lot of money and launched an online crowdfunding campaign, just to care for the heart disease infants and toddlers. The daily expenses were still very large, and as a last resort, Lin Fengjuan demanded to sue the father of the child for support.
Cheng Yao simply read the information and felt that the case was actually very simple. Even if the divorce is divorced, the child's biological father does not exempt the child from the obligation to support the child, and must still pay the corresponding support. Although this is a very simple and straightforward law, but in practice, many people refuse to pay alimony after divorce. In this case, the collection is useless, so they can only resort to the law and finally rely on The court enforced it.
Cheng Yao thought, what I need to help Lin Fengjuan this time is to prepare the materials for the prosecution, and then sue the father of the child in one fell swoop. If the other party is dissatisfied that the first instance requires a second instance, he will be accompanied, and finally he can apply for enforcement after the judgment becomes effective Up.
Without further ado, Cheng Yao immediately contacted the other party according to Lin Fengjuan's number on the information, and she asked the other party to the quiet petty bourgeois café downstairs.

After half an hour, Lin Fengjuan came.
Although she is only 25 years old, Lin Fengjuan feels that she has been vicissitudes of life, and she looks much older than her actual age. Her skin was slightly peeled, and she obviously didn’t have time to take care of her. There was also a deep black under the eye circles. Her eyes were filled with hopeless pain and exhaustion. It was only in the foundation of her facial features and eyebrows that she could see that if she took good care of her life, she had no worries. She should be a beauty.
Looking at the elegant environment and high-end furnishings in the cafe, she was twisting her old coat for a while, a little cramped: "I am in a hurry to get out, and I haven't had time to change clothes." She subconsciously covered a stain on her chest, "Not yet Be careful of being spat up by the baby."
Cheng Yao smiled at her and motioned to her to sit down: "Sit down. You must be in a hurry when you have children. You should not drink coffee during the breastfeeding period. I ordered you a cup of hot milk with fresh taro barley." Cheng Yao said After that, he called the waiter again and poured Lin Fengjuan a cup of hot water.
Lin Fengjuan’s mood slowly calmed down. She took a seat, took a sip of hot milk, and finally started talking to Cheng Yao: "Are you? Are you lawyer Cheng’s assistant?" She was a little embarrassed, "I heard The lawyer who made this case was named Cheng."
"I'm Cheng Yao." Cheng Yao said, handing over her business card, "I will be responsible for your case, and will do my best to help you get as much support as possible."
Although Cheng Yao wore a formal dress and performed very professionally, when Lin Fengjuan heard that she was Cheng Yao, his face still showed disappointment, worry and frustration.
"You're so young..." She lowered her head and touched Cheng Yao's business card, "You don't seem to be my age yet, I'm 25, and you just graduated."
As soon as Cheng Yao wanted to explain, she listened to Lin Fengjuan sighed: "But thank you for being willing to take my moneyless case. Legal aid is free. I can't expect any big lawyer to represent me. It’s worth a minute."
Cheng Yao smiled, not embarrassed: "Although the lawyer industry seems to be older and more qualified and more reassuring, it is not appropriate to use age to determine whether a lawyer is a professional."
The case of Li Mengting is now proceeding in an orderly manner according to her methods, and everything is as she expected. This makes Cheng Yao confident. Her eyes are bright and serious. She stared at Lin Fengjuan and said: "Young lawyers also have young lawyers. We are more energetic, more active in our thinking and brains, and we may be able to find a new way to handle a case, and we are more willing to devote ourselves to a case than lawyers with higher qualifications."
Lin Fengjuan was a little embarrassed, she nodded her head.
"I have read the case information you registered at the Legal Aid Center. It is relatively simple, but to clarify the idea, what I need to help you represent is an alimony dispute, right?" Cheng Yao took out the prepared information list, "then You also need to provide the originals of these forms, such as the divorce certificate from the ex-husband, the birth certificate of the child, your household registration book..."
As a result, before Cheng Yao finished speaking, Lin Fengjuan interrupted her with an embarrassed expression: "I...my child...don't ask the ex-husband for support."
Cheng Yao was stunned: "Why?" She was a little puzzled, "Then whom do you plan to sue for for support?"
"Ask...ask the child's biological father..."
A man who is breastfeeding cannot file for a divorce. Therefore, a divorce during a breastfeeding period is either filed by the woman or agreed upon by both parties. When Cheng Yao had just obtained Lin Fengjuan's simple case information, she had been curious about why she divorced one month after the child was born, and why Lin Fengjuan took the initiative to file for divorce, or agreed to divorce.
This mystery has now finally been answered.
It turns out that this child is not her ex-husband.
Lin Fengjuan's face turned red for a while and blue for a while. Obviously, she felt embarrassed when she cheated on her and gave birth to other people's children.
Cheng Yao gave her some time to calm her mood, and then deliberated on the words she continued to ask: "So what's the situation with the child's biological father?"
Lin Fengjuan bit her lip tightly, her eye circles slowly reddened: "It's all my fault." When she said this, she couldn't help sobbing, "Amin and I actually have a good relationship. We are working. I met in the future. He was married after three years of dating. He has a good temper and treats me very well. If...if there wasn't that high school reunion, it would be fine."
In her intermittent narration, Cheng Yao finally understood the ins and outs.
Not long after Lin Fengjuan and her ex-husband Amin were newly married, the high school classmates held a party. Almost all the class went to the party. Lin Fengjuan didn't think much about it and went there with pleasure. She used to be beautiful when she was in high school, she was a class flower. Now she was just married and was spoiled by Amin. She is full of happiness between her eyebrows and her eyes. The whole person is radiant. In high school classmates, she is even more like a star holding the moon. , And the one who was most passionate about her was Lu Jian, his first love in high school.
"Everyone said they wished me a happy wedding, and they kept toasting me in turns. I was very happy that day, so I drank all of them. Unexpectedly, I drank too much in the end, which was a little unconscious." Lin Fengjuan stopped talking, "I didn't know later. What's the matter, everyone is gone, and Lu Jian is the only one left to send me."
Speaking of this, Lin Fengjuan’s eyes were evasive, she seemed to want to erase this history briefly: "I didn’t know what happened later, when I wake up again, I...I’m already in the hotel with Lu Jian, There was a relationship..."
Although she shirked her responsibilities quite artistically and made herself really delirious and error-free, Cheng Yao can also know from her facial expressions and body movements that she is afraid that it was at the high school class reunion and the previous Lu Jian, his first love, rekindled sparks under the stimulation of alcohol, and the two people reminisced about the goodness of the past, so they crossed the thunder pond and had a relationship with each other.
Lin Fengjuan kept emphasizing: "I regretted it after waking up from the wine. Amin was very good to me. I really apologize to him like this. But that night with Lu Jian, it was really a mistake made by ghosts. I only have Amin in my heart. , I want to live a good life with Amin, and I don’t want to have anything to do with Lu Jian."
"So you concealed everything about the night without telling Amin?"
"En." Lin Fengjuan nodded awkwardly, "Really, it was just this time. I only did something wrong this time. Lu Jian and his girlfriend were also talking about marriage at the time, and he didn't want to have a long time with me. We all knew that that night was just a small episode and it would not affect each other’s marriage. So I think if it’s only one time, although it’s wrong, but instead of talking to Amin, it’s to us. A protection of marriage."
Where is this protection? Cheng Yao wanted to say that when you decided to have a breeze with Lu Jianchun on alcohol, there was no respect for this marriage in your eyes.
Could it be that one derailment is just a physical derailment, and the spirit still loves the husband, and will not divorce because of the derailment, is it called protecting the marriage without affecting the marriage?
It's just that even though she didn't agree with her, Cheng Yao still listened to Lin Fengjuan's words professionally and patiently.
"After that, I didn’t even post a WeChat with Lu Jian. We were so completely disconnected, and Amin didn’t doubt it. Gradually, I also forgot about that. Prior to this, Amin’s career improved a bit. , We have been preparing to have children." At this point, Lin Fengjuan hid his face and cried, "I just didn't expect that more than a month after the classmate, I detected pregnancy."
Cheng Yao handed Lin Fengjuan a tissue.
When Lin Fengjuan talked about this, her emotions were slightly out of control: "I was actually very nervous at the time. The one between Lu Jian and I was because we drank too much, and...and didn’t take safety measures. Time counts, I actually felt I was also a little scared, but... but I thought, what if it was Amin's, after all, I and Lu Jian were only once, how could it be so coincidental..."
Lin Fengjuan squeezed her fingers: "Besides, I didn't think much about it at first. I only felt that I was sick, dizzy, sleepy, and pantothenic in my stomach. At that time, Amin accompanied me to the hospital for an examination. He was there when I was pregnant. I can't help it... As soon as he heard that I was pregnant, he happily hugged me around in the air. I, I really have no reason to say to him that he was going to beat the baby."
Lin Fengjuan may not know that since she took the wrong first step, she was doomed to take a wrong step. Cheng Yao did not expect that what he thought was a simple support dispute would still have such a tortuous case.
"So you left the child with a fluke?"
Lin Fengjuan choked and nodded: "Amin likes this child so much, I think God will help me, it will definitely be his child."
Putting hope in heaven, this is really illusory.
"After the child was born, because he was a boy and looked like me, Amin didn't think much. I was also very happy. The child Amin didn't cry when he held it. I felt that it must be his child."
"So how did your ex-husband find out that the child is not him?"
"After the child was born, the blood type was checked in the hospital during the examination, and it did not match Amin." Lin Fengjuan said with difficulty. "After that, Amin never returned home and never visited me and the child again. It's totally like a different person."
Lin Fengjuan shed tears: "After that, our two families broke up completely. Amin asked me for a divorce, telling me that if I put this green hat on him, even the court would judge the divorce. I felt guilty in my heart. Knowing that the two of us were over, we agreed to divorce with him."
"I just didn't expect that after the divorce, I discovered that my child had congenital heart disease. It was still very serious and required surgery. The postoperative care was also very expensive." Lin Fengjuan said of the child, her eyes were reluctant. "Although I am wrong, this child That’s right, he’s so small and cute, I can’t let the child just disappear. But I’m still on maternity leave and my basic salary is not high. After the maternity leave ends, I’m afraid I will have to resign in order to take care of the children. It’s not good. I don’t have any source of income at home. I made a mistake when I divorced Amin, so I was considered to have gone out of the house. Now that I want to treat my child well, I can’t always let kind people donate to crowdfunding..."
"So you want to ask Lu Jian for support?"
Lin Fengjuan nodded: "The child is indeed his, and his family is very good..."
"Have you talked about this with Lu Jian?"
When Cheng Yao asked about this, Lin Fengjuan’s helpless and painful expression deepened:
I contacted Lu Jian on WeChat, but then I found out that he didn’t know when I got up and morning and blacked me out. I don’t know if the phone number is also. I changed it. I called him and he didn't answer it. I left him a text message and didn't return it. I didn't even know where he worked and lived. I really had no choice but to sue."
Cheng Yao grasped the key point and said: "After all, litigation is a very energy-consuming and time-consuming matter. It may be a year after the litigation process is completed, but the child's support cannot be waited so long. The sooner the better, if you can If the negotiation is successful, that would be the best. Let’s do this, you give me Lu Jian’s contact information and I will call him."
After Cheng Yao got the number, he called Lu Jian on the spot.
Almost soon, Lu Jian picked it up: "Hello?"
It seems that he didn't change his phone number, just didn't answer Lin Fengjuan's call...
Cheng Yao immediately briefed the other party about the causes and consequences of the incident, but Lu Jian did not buy it: "I said it was impossible! Impossible! I am about to get married. I don’t want my fiancee to see Lin Fengjuan’s WeChat. It dragged her black. At first, I thought those text messages were just Lin Fengjuan's boring jokes, but I didn't care about her anymore! I didn't expect to rely on me if it was all like this! There will be no end! You will call the police if you like this!"
Before the other party hung up, Cheng Yao insisted: "If you do not actively cooperate with this matter, I will directly send a lawyer's letter to your work unit's personnel department and legal department on behalf of my client. Then you will Know whether we are deliberately harassing or defending our rights seriously."
Although this was just Cheng Yao's vain shot, Lu Jian's attitude was relaxed when he heard these words. Although he was reluctant, he finally agreed to Cheng Yao's request to meet.

Without further ado, Cheng Yao made an appointment to meet directly today. She sent Lu Jian the address of the cafe where she and Lin Fengjuan were located.
Lu Jian was very close to the cafe, and ten minutes later, he rushed over with an ugly expression. Although this man has some greasy noodles, he is tall and long, with a straight face. According to the current standards, he is considered a handsome guy.
It's just that Cheng Yao is used to seeing Qian Heng's face, and has long been immune to this "vulgar fan". In her inner and objective evaluation, this temperament is almost a thousand miles worse than Qian Heng.
While commenting in her heart, Cheng Yao was not idle, she secretly opened the recorder with skill.
As soon as he sat down, Lu Jian glanced at his watch and was quite impatient: "I only have ten minutes, so what's the point?"
Lin Fengjuan was irritated by his attitude, and immediately raised her voice: "Hanhan is also your child! He is now lying in the hospital, waiting for life-saving money, he is a life! Is it worth ten minutes for you?"
Lu Jian was also annoyed: "Lin Fengjuan, did you lose your mind when you gave birth to a child? I heard that you gave birth to a son with a heart attack, so I started to look for other classmates to inquire about my family situation, and when I found out that my family had money, I prepared Frustrated me? Dream it, I will never recognize this kind of "being a father". It is very miserable for you to have a sick child and be abandoned by your husband, but you can't spit someone, what is it? My child? What does it have to do with me?"
"It's yours." Lin Fengjuan's eyes were torn apart, "It's not my ex-husband's, it must be yours. The time is right for everything."
"Yes, I have a relationship with you." Lu Jian admitted that it was refreshing, but his tone was full of mockery, "But who knows if you have a relationship with others?"
"You!" Lin Fengjuan was angrily, "Except for my ex-husband, I only had a relationship with you! Not his child, of course it is yours!"
"Of course you can say that. If it wasn't for the child who was found to be not your ex-husband, you could continue to tell him that you only slept with him in your entire life?" Lu Jian didn't care, "You can happen to me when you just got married. Relationship cuckold your husband, you are such a casual woman, who knows how many green hats you put on your husband. I think you said it was my child, just because I am the best of these men!"
Lin Fengjuan didn't realize the cruelty of men until then.
She remembered very clearly how Lu Jian hugged herself softly after she became a little drunk, saying that she is his eternal first love, eternal white moonlight, and only hates meeting again. She is married and married, otherwise what? Also take her back. She said that her current girlfriend is just the product of a family marriage, but she is the only one in her heart. She still vividly remembered every love words of Lu Jian back then. She remembered how he coaxed her and said that he wanted to relive the past with her for the last time. Then it was kissing, touching, and then, and then everything was out of control.
After the child was discovered by Amin that she was not biological, Lin Fengjuan regretted it and regretted that she did not insist on beating the child secretly so that she would not be found out; however, only now did she truly regret it from the bottom of her heart, regretting her wrong belief After Lu Jian's rhetoric, he betrayed Amin.
Lu Jian, a despicable man, even poured dirty water on himself.
Lin Fengjuan's eyes reddened: "Since you think I am a woman who can do her best, and the child cannot be yours, then you can go for a paternity test directly with me. If you want the paternity test, the child is not yours, and I will say nothing. I apologize and never pester you again!"
"Why should I do a paternity test?" Lu Jian was also annoyed. "First, you can't prove what happened between us, and second, you can't prove when what happened. To be honest, I really don't know you, classmate I haven’t contacted you once before the meeting. Why should I do a paternity test with your child? And I’ve done a paternity test. What will others think of me when I know it? Even if it’s nothing to do with you, it will have to be arranged. You Shameless, I still want to be a human being!"
After Lu Jian finished speaking, he no longer had the patience to continue the conversation. He took out a wad of cash from his bag and threw it in front of Lin Fengjuan, "You take the three thousand dollars as my compensation for that night. , From then on we have both cleaned up."
"I...I will go to the court to apply for a paternity test..."
Lu Jian hummed a laugh. He looked at Cheng Yao with undisguised contempt and contempt: "Did your lawyer tell you? Even the court cannot force others to do a paternity test. If I refuse, you I can’t do a paternity test at all. Lin Fengjuan, I advise you to stop at enough, really dare to find someone to make trouble in my unit, Lu Jian, I definitely have the ability to make you unable to eat."
After Lu Jian finished speaking, he stopped looking at Lin Fengjuan. He glanced at his watch, then picked up the bag with an impatient look. Lin Fengjuan was left staring at the money on the table in a daze.
Cheng Yao was stunned at Lu Jian's behavior. To say this, wouldn't it be a disguised suggestion that she used the three thousand yuan to buy Lin Fengjuan overnight? How is this different from treating others as prostitutes?
Lin Fengjuan, the person involved, naturally knew what Cheng Yao could see, but she didn't jump up and threw the cash back to Lu Jian's face to let him go. It wasn't until Lu Jian's figure completely disappeared that Lin Fengjuan shivered and took the three thousand yuan into her bag.
A bowl of rice stumps a hero. When a person is faced with an extremely realistic dilemma, she is not qualified to speak of self-esteem and principles.
Cheng Yao knew that Lin Fengjuan needed money, and she needed a lot of money to save her son Hanhan.
She collected the money, and concealed her face in extreme embarrassment and shame, crying: "Cheng Lawyer, I... I really need money."
Cheng Yao patted her hand on the table: "I understand. Don't be embarrassed. I am your attorney. I will do my best to protect your interests and stand by your side."
Lin Fengjuan looked at Cheng Yao almost asking for help: "Lawyer Cheng, is what Lu Jian said is true? Is it true that even if we go to prosecute, the court can't force Lu Jian to do a paternity test with Han Han? "
"Indeed it is."
Lin Fengjuan said in frustration: "Then...what else can I do?"
Cheng Yao smiled and lit the recorder: "He at least admitted that he had a relationship with you just now. This shows that, no matter what, Hanhan has a probability of being his child. Although the court cannot force a paternity test, the evidence is If it shows that the child may be him, but he insists on rejecting the paternity test, then he will bear the consequences of not being able to provide evidence. If we can find the rest of the evidence chain, for example, the time you opened the house at that time is used to infer the time when the child was born It doesn't match, his blood type, and whether there are any genetic characteristics in the child that are consistent with Lu Jian, etc."
Cheng Yao calmly said: "In short, I will help you find all these related evidence, and then submit it to the court. As long as the evidence chain is strong enough, then even if Lu Jian refuses to do a paternity test, the court can infer that he has paternity. Relationship."
Lin Fengjuan's eyes lit up when she heard this. She seemed to rekindle hope. She changed her suspicion to Cheng Yao and thanked her sincerely: "Thank you for becoming a lawyer! Thank you so much!" she said as she said. From the bag, I took out part of the cash just now, and wanted to give Cheng Yao, "I know you don't have money to take a case like mine, this...this is my little heart!"
Cheng Yao politely pushed Qian back: "We have a case-handling subsidy." After thinking about it, she suddenly laughed, "I still have a private subsidy." She added in Lin Fengjuan's puzzled eyes, "Anyway, there is no shortage of money. , You don’t need to worry. A case with a value of 10 million is a case, and a legal aid case is also a case. The parties involved in all cases are equally important in my heart. I will do everything I can and should do."
Cheng Yao looked at Lin Fengjuan: "So you can do what you should do. Your baby is still waiting for you at home. I will take a taxi for you. I will contact you as soon as I have anything to do."
After Lin Fengjuan was sent away, Cheng Yao sorted out the current thoughts and information, and returned to Jun Heng.
Although Lin Fengjuan's case is only a legal aid case, it is not the one he had previously expected. How to prove the parent-child relationship without Lu Jian's cooperation is still a challenge.
Although the case is difficult, Cheng Yao's heart is full of satisfaction.
This was the first time she faced the client independently after leaving Qian Heng. She thought about the case-handling ideas completely on her own, and she became a little bit more responsive in a short time. For a while, even Cheng Yao was a little proud of herself. The time I spent reading classic cases, listening carefully to colleagues' discussions, and humbly asking for advice in the past was not wasted.
Some efforts may not be effective in the short term, but one day they will pay off.
Cheng Yao always remembered the words of writer Gladwell--
"The reason why the genius in people's eyes is extraordinary is not that it is superhuman, but that it has made continuous efforts. 10,000 hours of training is a necessary condition for anyone to become a world-class master from ordinary."
As long as you work hard, as long as you spend 10,000 hours, or even 20,000 hours, you will be able to reach Qian Heng firmly but slowly, and one day you will be able to reach Qian Heng.
