Chapter 518: Chapter 440: When the Boss Takes Action, Is There Any Case the Boss Can’t Win?

Xue Qingqing is the only daughter of the Xue Family, outstanding and beautiful since childhood, adored by everyone.

Of course, Xue Qingqing also has some relatives...

For instance, her cousin is Young Master Xue, who has been studying abroad for many years. Originally, he could inherit the family business, but he preferred to study law and entered the legal field.

Xue Qingqing’s eldest uncle runs a big company domestically, with a market value of over ten billion.

However, Xue Qingqing’s eldest uncle doesn’t have any children. He watched Xue Qingqing grow up, often giving her pocket money, almost treating her like a daughter.

Xue Qingqing’s eldest uncle got married only two years ago. When his wife gave birth, she had a massive hemorrhage and couldn’t be saved.

She was pregnant with a daughter at the time...

As a result, since then, Xue Qingqing’s eldest uncle never remarried.

This year, Xue Qingqing’s eldest uncle, Xue Jian Country, is already fifty-eight years old.

Xue Jian Country lost his wife and daughter, so he has always doted on Xue Qingqing...

Xue Qingqing also often visited her uncle since childhood, maintaining very good relations with her relatives like uncles and aunts.

Xue Qingqing was also diligent from a young age, earning her way into Peking University.

In the Xue Family, only Xue Qingqing had good academic results.

Young Master Xue was studying abroad, mostly due to expending money to go there.

So Xue Jian Country cherishes Xue Qingqing greatly; having no daughter, he treated her as his own.

Xue Jian Country even had his will prepared, as well as property notarization...

All his assets would belong to Xue Qingqing when the time came.

Even when Xue Qingqing initially wanted to work as an assistant at Lawyer Gu’s small firm, Xue Jian Country supported her.

Gao Sheng and Zhang Qi only opened a small company, indeed a small business compared to the Xue Family.

Now, Xue Qingqing has actively reached out to them, wanting to help them with their lawsuit.

Gao Sheng promptly smiled and said, "Hello, hello, I am Gao Sheng."

Xue Qingqing replied, "Uncle Gao, our firm has already reviewed your case, and the boss has decided to personally handle this lawsuit. However, he’s too busy to meet with you to discuss the contract just yet."

Gao Sheng and Zhang Qi exchanged a glance.

Xue Qingqing’s boss... Gu Chen?

A lawyer with a 100% winning record in every case!

If Lawyer Gu takes on their case... there might still be hope for their son’s case.

Xue Qingqing was very polite to Gao Sheng and Zhang Qi.

Gao Sheng said, "Will Lawyer Gu step in? If Lawyer Gu steps in, then this case is his!"

Xue Qingqing smiled charmingly, then shifted her tone, "Uncle Gao, I should clarify in advance, this case is quite special, and the lawyer’s fees we’ll charge will be relatively high, unlike ordinary divorce asset division cases."

Gao Sheng nodded, "Understood, understood, how much is the lawyer’s fee?"

Xue Qingqing said, "A base lawyer fee of two hundred thousand, plus 30% of post-marriage property earnings. According to the documents, Gao Jiantong’s joint marital assets amount to twenty-two million."

"Following the 30%, it’s six hundred sixty thousand, so the fee is quite high. But I need to explain that the 30% is the part of Gao Jiantong’s post-marital property awarded after the court’s judgment."

"For instance, if the court awards Gao Jiantong twenty million from the twenty-two million property, we charge a fee of two hundred thousand plus six hundred thousand, totaling eight hundred thousand. Do you understand?"

In fact, Gu Chen didn’t care about the lawyer’s fees much. He generally didn’t charge high fees.

Xue Qingqing naturally took over the negotiations regarding the lawyer fees.

Moreover, Xue Qingqing had heard...

The first trial judgment allocated sixteen million in assets to Li Ranran, leaving only six million for Gao Jiantong.

This distribution ratio was already outrageous.

It allocated more than 70% of assets to Li Ranran...

Leaving Gao Jiantong with less than 30% of the assets.

And in reality... more assets were allocated to Li Ranran.

Because the house, car, and everything were allocated to Li Ranran...

And over their eight years of marriage, the joint property was far more than twenty-two million. Li Ranran usually took more money.

After marrying Li Ranran, Gao Jiantong gave her a hundred thousand every month, totaling one million two hundred thousand a year.

Their eight years of marriage... Approaching ten million in those eight years!

And this money... wasn’t counted in the joint marital assets.

Including household expenses... these weren’t even calculated.

The twenty-two million tallied includes only Gao Jiantong’s real estate, car, and family’s savings...

Regular expenses weren’t calculated in detail, as calculating every last expense over those eight years would be astronomical, too vast to comprehend, a Herculean task.

In reality...

After marriage, Gao Jiantong earned a lot of money, and with the court’s final decision, he only got 10% of the property!

This is unacceptable to Gao Sheng and Zhang Qi.

Their son has worked diligently for eight years, earning so much money, only for it all to be divided to Li Ranran?

Moreover, Gao Sheng and Zhang Qi suspect... Li Ranran wants to send Gao Jiantong to prison, very possibly because she’s being unfaithful.

Li Ranran has someone else.

But Gao Sheng and Zhang Qi lacked evidence, so they didn’t dare to say it openly.

Xue Qingqing continued, "Uncle Gao, Aunt Zhang, the boss told me that there’s a high possibility Li Ranran has been unfaithful, making this a case of infidelity rather than a simple divorce case. Li Ranran likely set up Gao Jiantong to send him to prison as a means of property division, custody battle, and conveniently, a defensible reason for divorce. Infidelity... also gives leverage over the property fight."

"Our boss also mentioned something... He said, having taken on this case, the chances of winning are very high."

Gao Sheng: "???"

Zhang Qi: "!!!"

They’ve heard other star lawyers talking about how challenging the case is...

But no lawyer dared to claim the odds of winning were high!

Only Gu Chen dared to claim so!!

Also, Gu Chen has never lost a case to date!

Every case Gu Chen handled was fully broadcast online!

Gao Sheng excitedly asked, "High chance? Did Lawyer Gu say anything else? Can my son be acquitted? As long as my son is innocent, I don’t care about the twenty-odd million, we can earn that back if spent, but my son can’t go to prison, that would ruin a whole life!"

Zhang Qi also asked, "Can my son really be acquitted? Is there a possibility of overturning the verdict? He’s been sentenced to three years now... Three years... My son will be in jail for three years..."

Xue Qingqing gave a slight smile, saying, "Uncle Gao, Aunt Zhang, I don’t know the answers to these. My boss only told me this much, and I’m not sure to what extent my boss can achieve in court. But, his litigation record speaks for itself."

"I can only tell you, with all the cases my boss has handled, he never mentioned having a high chance of winning before. He always said the cases were tough, difficult to win.... Yet, he won the cases in the end."

"I believe, since my boss dares to say the odds of winning are very high, then this case... is practically a sure thing!"
