Chapter 373 - Big Furry Brother (2)
...
The group of people was discussing happily, but in reality, Xiang Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.
“Are you done?”
His voice was indifferent, clear, aloof, low, and full of powerful dominance.
The two people at the defendant’s table across from him subconsciously shut up.
By the time they reacted, they realized they had actually somehow complied with Xiang Chen...
Xiang Chen stood up and replied sneeringly without even looking at the document.
“Scoring the highest for the written interview test among all the candidates means incompetency? I’m afraid I have to question the professional ability of your company’s interviewers then.”
“As for the claim about her mental illness, that’s a personal attack. Who says it’s a must for everyone to be extroverted? The presence of introverts is precisely the element that gives rise to diversity. Everyone deserves to be respected, regardless of their personality.”
“If the person who scored the highest for the written interview test was male, would you still hire women who scored lower? The obvious answer is no.”
“Not only are you in violation of the law.” After a pause, he sneered and gibed, “Your morals are ridiculous too.”
...
...
The viewers of the livestream were dumbfounded to hear his words and the pop-up comments appeared only after a long while.
—— [Damn, Xiang Chen is so sharp-tongued]
—— [I can’t think of a better word to describe Attorney Xiang, he’s impressive!]
—— [Well said. He’s justified and polite, that’s simply a textbook defense]
Qiao Wan could no longer process what the judge and the defendant’s lawyer said after that as the only thing she could see was the tall and magnificent figure in front of her...
‘He’s so handsome.’
Xiang Chen’s style of defense in court was the same as his personality: direct, cold, harsh, and sharp. After just a few rounds, he had already steadily gained the upper hand.
Xiao Xu, who was initially hanging her head low, also raised it slightly while subconsciously straightening her back.
‘Yes, I’m not as bad as what they made me out to be!’
Even the gaze in the eyes of Xiao Xu, who had regained her confidence, became firm and determined.
The netizens watching the livestream were influenced and quickly left comments to cheer her on.
...
A case of this level was not difficult for Xiang Chen at all. Soon, he slayed domineeringly.
He adjusted his tie with his slender and bony fingers while waiting aloofly for the judge’s verdict.
In the end, Xiao Xu won the case; and although the compensation she received was not much, she smiled for the first time in days.
historical
“Attorney Xiang, thank you.” Xiao Xu sniffled and said, “And you, Qiao Wan, thank you for helping me so much.”
Qiao Wan waved her hands and said , “No, no, no, I didn’t do anything, it’s all thanks to Attorney Xiang.”
Xiang Chen said indifferently, “You’re welcome.”
When the three of them left the courtroom, local reporters immediately surrounded them.
Apart from the law-related column journalists, the others were after Xiang Chen’s popularity. There were even journalists of mediation and matchmaking columns.
“Attorney Xiang, will you adopt the image of a public interest lawyer in the future?”
“Attorney Xiang, are you interested in participating in our matchmaking program?”
“Are you a feminist? How do you feel about the phrase ‘I’m sorry to be born as a woman’ that’s popular on the Internet?”
Xiang Chen’s face was expressionless, and he didn’t plan to entertain them at all but his eyebrows furrowed when he heard a certain question.
“Whether you’re born as a woman or a man, there is nothing to be sorry for.”
“There is no need to divide this world into male and female rights, simply because too many people do not understand that everyone, regardless of gender, deserve equal rights.”
His aura and temperament were cold. His words moved everyone, until Qiao Wan accidentally blurted, “Ahhhh Big Furry Brother is so dashing!!!”
Xiang Chen’s expression gradually froze.
