[Divorce Lawyers]
Episode 45
Since we've been together
we keep fighting and breaking up time and time again.
We fight and make up, and then we fight again.
But things are different now.
We're married, and we even have a baby on the way.
Can we at least give it a try for the sake of our child?
Our child?
Now that you've mentioned our child
let's talk about our child.
- Why did you hide it from me? - Hide what from you?
That you were already pregnant before we got married.
Are you crazy?
Stop pretending, Jiao Yan Yan.
I've heard the rumor. You never ended your relationship with Chi Hai Dong.
Now I know why you kept rejecting my proposals.
But then you suddenly wanted to get married and you got pregnant.
Who's the father? Is it Chi Hai Dong's child?
Did you marry me because you got pregnant with Chi Hai Dong?
Did you get pregnant with Chi Hai Dong, you bitch?
- What did you say? - You bitch!
You'll never change.
Where do you think you're going?
Yue Qun, let's get divorced.
If you have any questions
please talk to my divorce lawyer, Chi Hai Dong.
- Chi Hai Dong, come out! - Hey, who are you looking for?
I'm looking for Chi Hai Dong.
- Chi Hai Dong! - He's not home.
What's going on?
- I said he's not home. - Shut up, I need to speak to him.
- Chi Hai Dong! - Stop knocking.
- Why do you need to see him? - It's none of your business.
- Don't say that. - Listen...
We're his in-laws.
His in-laws?
When did he get married?
Let's worry about that later.
Why do you need to see him?
He's taken my wife away.
- But... - That's impossible.
Why would he do that?
My wife wrote me this letter. Read it.
Yue Qun. So you're Yue Qun, right?
'Let's get divorced.'
'I've already drafted the divorce agreement.'
'If you have any questions'
'please talk to my divorce lawyer, Chi Hai Dong.'
I get it.
Did you wife hire Chi Hai Dong as her lawyer to handle your divorce?
He's a lawyer, he won't take away your wife.
Exactly.
But what does our divorce have to do with Chi Hai Dong?
How could he have found out about it before I did?
That's a bit ridiculous, isn't it?
You mean you didn't know your wife wanted to get divorced?
What kind of a husband are you?
You...
I don't want to waste my time on you.
Do you know about the relationship between Chi Hai Dong and my wife?
What about it?
My wife is his ex-wife.
But they never ended their relationship. Even after their divorce.
Hey...
Chi Hai Dong, where's my wife?
How would I know?
Stop pretending.
You better give me back Jiao Yan Yan.
- Calm down. - Get your hands off me.
- What do you want? - I want to beat him up.
Who are you trying to beat up?
He's my son-in-law, do you still want to beat him up?
That's right.
Take it easy.
Just talk nicely, okay?
Let's talk inside, come on.
Calm down.
My shoulder gets sore so easily now.
You're not young anymore.
Slowly...
I understand what you mean.
After you stayed out all night
you got home and saw a letter from your wife
saying that she wants a divorce.
After you read the letter
you began to wonder if Chi Hai Dong was behind it, right?
Let me tell you.
That's impossible.
For the past few days he's never left my sight.
So when you were having a fight last night
we were here, talking about their wedding.
How would he have time to worry about you guys?
No time at all.
Then why did my wife tell me to talk to him?
Well, you should ask your wife instead.
Yue Qun, do you trust me?
I can prove that he's been with me for the past few days.
Yan Yan also never called us.
What you should do now, is try to find her.
- She's pregnant, remember? - But where should I look?
I wish she'd stop going missing all the time.
Chi Hai Dong.
Was she like this when she was married to you?
You'd better find her soon, she might be a bit depressed.
Are you going?
My goodness.
What a weirdo.
What's the matter with your ex-wife?
How can she run away when she's pregnant?
Can't she wait until the baby's born?
Mom.
- Let's go. - Go where?
- To the office. - Why?
We have a meeting with a client.
Come on, it's almost time.
- Are you going, too? - We'll be back later.
- Where are we going? - That was just an excuse.
I could tell that you want to go and find Jiao Yan Yan, right?
Since she's pregnant, I'm worried that she might be depressed.
Last time she came to your place. Where could she be this time?
I don't know. Let's go find her.
You go, I'll stay home with my parents.
After we got back together this time
I think you've become more understanding.
- Do you want to marry me now? - No...
I just want to ask you something.
If I don't end up marrying you
is your dad going to strangle me like he strangled Yue Qun?
No, he'll just break your leg.
Why did you come back?
Hai Dong said he can take care of it himself.
- Better now? - Much better.
[Jiao Yan Yan]
[I'm at Dream Kindergarten.]
[I want to talk to you.]
Dream Kindergarten?
Has he gone to look for his ex-wife?
Li Li.
Let me ask you.
Did you ask him to go or did he insist on going?
Li Li.
You're my daughter.
So I know you very well.
You know what?
Your dad might look like a grumpy old man now
but he was really handsome when he was young.
It's true.
I think he was even better looking than Chi Hai Dong.
A 180-centimeter-tall action hero.
Look around you, you don't see many of them.
Imagine the number of girls that chased after him.
Women of all ages.
You'd probably call them fans nowadays.
He had so many fans back then.
They gave him letters.
Some even waited outside his house to give him handmade sweaters.
Look at Qin, your Auntie Qin.
She's still chasing after him.
Do you know what a woman should do to hold on to a man?
Keep all of the burden to yourself?
If that could guarantee you a man
then there wouldn't be any tragedies in life.
Then what's your trick?
Forcing him to let you keep all of his money?
Wrong.
It's my understanding.
The reason I'm the last one standing and how I was able to stay with your dad
until he became a grumpy old man is because of my understanding.
Don't worry.
I've definitely inherited your understanding.
Stop it, be serious.
Good.
Then I don't need to worry.
Actually, running a family is like flying a kite.
No matter how high it flies up into the sky
the string's still in your hands.
When Chi Hai Dong comes home, see if he wants to talk about it.
- What if he doesn't say anything? - Then ask him.
You're about to be his wife, right?
You should care about him.
You should show your concern by asking him.
Mom, you're the best.
You're far too old for this.
[Kindergarten]
Ms. Jiao, someone's standing there.
Ms. Jiao, someone's standing there...
I married you right after I graduated from university.
I never worked before.
So this is my first job
and I'm really enjoying it.
They have great benefits here.
They even provide accommodation and meals.
Most importantly, I feel a lot more at ease around these children.
But you're pregnant.
Are you sure you want to work?
My high school friend is the principal here.
Her husband's an obstetrician.
So, don't worry.
Make sure you let me know if you need anything.
All I need now is for you to take on my divorce case.
But I don't think that's what Yue Qun wants.
You need both parties' consent for a divorce agreement.
If he doesn't agree to it then I'll take it to court.
Do you want to talk to him about it first?
You can't keep hiding from him.
I don't want to see him again.
You know what? Every time he beat me up
he'd tell me that he would change.
But he never did.
So I thought
since we're about to have a baby
perhaps he'd change for the sake of our child.
But he got even worse.
Hai Dong.
I can't let my baby live in fear from from the moment he's born.
I must get divorced.
The sooner the better.
Come to think of it
I've always relied on others to take care of me.
Before I got married, my parents looked after me.
After I got married, it was you.
But now...
I'm about to become a mother.
So I must be prepared
and adjust myself.
This way, I'll be able to look after him.
People often say that a bad marriage
is a like good school.
I think it's quite true.
You're much more mature now.
What about you?
I think things are going really well with you and Luo Li.
Are you getting married soon?
We'll see.
Hai Dong.
Luo Li's a wonderful girl.
She's also very suitable for you.
You should treasure her.
You want a favor from me?
I want to talk to you about something.
Is it good or bad? Let me guess.
It's bad.
I saw Jiao Yan Yan today.
So my guess was right.
Has she gone home with Yue Qun?
No, she hasn't.
She's working at a kindergarten and won't be going back.
She...
She wants to divorce Yue Qun
and she wants me to be her lawyer.
Do you think that's appropriate?
She's going through a rough patch.
Let's talk about her divorce case later.
Let's discuss a more important problem first.
She's your ex-wife, right?
You know what that means? It means your relationship's over.
Since we're together now
can you tell me what the hell is going on between you two?
- You should trust me. - Trust you?
How can I trust you?
When you denied that you'd raped her
I trusted you, right?
When you said you were worried that she was depressed
I trusted you again, didn't I?
How much more understanding do you want me to be?
Now that she wants to get divorced, out of all the lawyers
she's picked her ex-husband, my boyfriend.
Don't tell me it's because she wants a discount.
But how could I reject her?
I'm not such a cold-hearted person.
- You don't usually get jealous. - That's totally irrelevant.
Chi Hai Dong.
I understand that you want to help her out of kindness.
But shouldn't you know where to draw the line?
If we can't even agree on this then we can break up right now.
Don't try to challenge my tolerance.
I can tell you right now
that I'm not as understanding as you think I am.
Fine.
I won't take on her case, okay?
I'll call her and let her know.
She must have asked me for either one of these reasons.
One reason is because Yue Qun's spent all her money.
The second reason
is because she doesn't know how to deal with other lawyers.
I'll call her now.
I'm calling.
If you really want to take on this case because you're worried about her
then I've got an idea.
What idea?
I'll be her lawyer.
Sure.
You're so annoying.
What are you looking at?
- I'm looking at my daughter. - Me, too.
She must have inherited my good genes.
She's so smart.
Yes, all the good genes are from you.
Darling, sit down.
- I want to talk to you. - Go on...
Sit down.
Who do you think should look after their money after they get married?
Don't worry, it's up to them.
Li Li's very smart
but I think her life's not very organized at all.
I don't think Li Li can do it.
- Definitely Chi Hai Dong. - Are you crazy?
A family must have a good financial foundation.
It's a very important job.
We can never leave too much money for the man.
The richer they are, the trickier they get.
What if he loses control once he gets rich?
If anything goes wrong
they'll probably blame us for not warning them now.
Yes, you're very good at that.
I never have any money in my pocket.
But at least you have a happy and lasting marriage, right?
Exactly.
Look at Director Yang now.
See what happened to him?
After he had a stroke, his young wife ran off with another man.
But what about Xiao Xie?
He lived ten years longer after he married his young wife.
I'm serious.
- Perhaps I should talk to them. - No.
It's still too early to worry about this.
No, it's not.
Fine, talk to them.
But don't be too forceful.
Hai Dong, have a bun.
Mom, he can get it himself.
Hai Dong, we'll be family soon.
You don't have to be so polite.
Since your parents aren't here now...
Auntie, my dad's still alive.
But he became a monk, right?
So I'll treat you like my own son.
Uncle and I will be your parents from now on.
- You'll be getting married soon. - Real soon.
You two aren't young anymore
so you should start having children soon.
Before Uncle and I get too old
we can take care of your children for you.
She loves kids.
You two can get on with your business
and we can be your support.
After you get married
we should be considerate
and look after one another.
What are you trying to say?
I just want to remind you
that after you get married
you must pick a person to take care of all your finances.
My dear, would you say we have a happy marriage?
Absolutely, very happy indeed.
From when we first started dating to when we finally got married...
how much did we earn a month?
- Around 20 yuan, I think. - But we also received a subsidy.
Anyway, we had a combined income of 50 yuan a month.
It's hard to believe, right?
Your grandma was still alive then.
Three generations.
I was the one who took care of the entire household's money.
Mom.
We've already talked about this.
We'll remain financially independent after we get married.
I agree with Li Li.
No, that won't do.
Listen.
You must assign one person to look after the household's money.
That person will decide what to buy and what not to buy.
In addition to giving her my monthly income
I also had to give her all of my performance bonuses.
I gave her every yuan I earned.
He really did.
Don't look at me like that, it's true.
So if you want to remain financially independent
I think it's a little...
Hai Dong, what do you think?
Auntie, Uncle.
Since we've known each other for a while now
there's something that I must tell you.
- Go on. - There's no turning back for me now.
You guys...
You guys
have such a loving family.
I'll do exactly as you say.
- You're certainly very wise. - I'll give you bun.
Hai Dong, you're so understanding.
Li Li, you must be very careful, okay?
You must write down everything that you buy.
Let's not talk about this anymore.
I'll show you how it's done later.
Eat more, Hai Dong.
Cheers.
I really think...
Chi Hai Dong knows where Jiao Yan Yan is.
It's simple.
Just get someone to follow him.
Cheers.
Can you take care of it for me?
Me? Sure.
So, how much are you going to pay me?
Forget it, I'll do it myself.
Look how stingy you are.
During their marriage of six months
the defendant has repeatedly beaten my client.
He got extremely violent
on September 17, 2013
November 5, 2013
and January 15, 2014.
My client's been tolerating it for the sake of their family.
Until recently, when despite her pregnancy
the defendant got so violent
that my client's left cheek and eye were bleeding
and her right arm was sprained.
The defendant's repeated violence has already damaged their relationship.
My client has lost all hope and wishes to apply for a divorce.
We'd like to request a divorce
and compensation of 100,000 yuan for her emotional trauma.
I have to pay her for divorcing me?
What kind of nonsense is that?
I won't agree to it.
- Calm down. - Please present our evidence.
This is her injury report after the third domestic violence incident.
The information and photos being presented
can't prove that her injuries were caused by my client.
We'd also like to question the plaintiff's accusation
for the domestic incident that happened on November 5, 2013.
My client was on his way to Baoding that day.
So if he wasn't physically with her how could he have beaten her?
You're lying.
I remember that he was going to go to Baoding that day.
But he didn't end up going.
Your honor, he came home and wanted my property certificate.
When I didn't give it to him, he just started beating me.
Your honor, we'd like to ask the defendant to present his alibi.
Defendant, do you have an alibi?
Yes, I can give it to the court assistant now.
This photo was taken when my client drove his Chrysler sedan
through the toll booth at Baoding.
Since he wasn't physically with the plaintiff that day
how could he have beaten her?
He told me he lent his car to a friend that day.
He lent his car to a friend!
Yan Yan, who else can prove that he was home that day?
No one.
Even though my client is the plaintiff's second husband
their relationship has a very strong foundation.
In 2012, the plaintiff was involved in a major car accident.
My client happened to be passing by and helped rescue her.
He also stayed with her throughout her entire treatment
and took great care of her.
Her husband didn't even know about her accident.
If my client took such great care of her before
how can she say that my client doesn't treasure their relationship?
Yeah, where was your husband then?
He's sitting right here watching the show now.
My client had a very happy marriage with the plaintiff.
They had occasional disagreements
but he never acted violently toward her.
She's only accused him of domestic violence
because she wants to defame him.
No, you're a liar.
Pan Xiao Gang, you're lying.
You've twisted the whole truth.
Your honor, what he said isn't true.
Your honor.
Therefore
there's still a chance that their relationship can be restored.
My client's willing to communicate and negotiate with the plaintiff.
He's willing to try to resolve their misunderstanding.
We'd like a settlement.
Luo Li, what should we do?
- Can you think of something? - Your honor.
I'd like to ask our witness, Wang Ming Liang, to come forward.
Approved.
Hello, Mr. Wang.
Can you tell us your occupation and where you work?
I'm a swimming coach at Yo Yo Gym Club.
On September 17, 2013
where were you in the afternoon?
I was working at the club.
Did you see the plaintiff and the defendant there?
- I did. - What were they doing?
- They were swimming in the pool. - What else?
Nothing happened.
They were just swimming.
Mr. Wang, think about it again.
Did you see the defendant trying to drown the plaintiff
while she called out for help?
Objection, the plaintiff's lawyer is leading the witness.
Attorney Luo, please be careful of your questions.
Mr. Wang.
That's not what you told me last time.
Please try to remember what happened when you saw them at the pool that day.
They were swimming together and splashing water on each other.
Then what were you doing?
Oh yeah, I was about to finish my shift.
No, you're lying.
Think harder.
What he said isn't true.
Your honor, I have no further questions.
Defendant, any further questions?
- No, your honor. - Witness, you are dismissed.
Yue Qun, how could you do that?
You're so despicable!
That's enough, Yan Yan.
Let's just go home.
Your baby needs a father.
No, my baby will never have a father like you.
- You'll never get to see him. - What's the point of this?
Even if we get divorced, I'll still get to visit my child.
I'll always be part of your lives.
I can see my child anytime.
Calm down, Yan Yan.
You're not the father of my child.
It's Chi Hai Dong.
- He's the father of my child. - What did you say?
Yan Yan, what are you saying?
Your honor.
Chi Hai Dong's the father of my child.
You've got no right to see him.
Bullshit! You better explain yourself!
One day, after Yue Qun beat me up
I went to see Chi Hai Dong.
He'd left his door open because he was drunk.
So I went in and took care of him
and spent the night there.
Hai Dong, do you remember that?
Do you remember what happened that night?
Hai Dong...
Chi Hai Dong, you bastard!
I knew there was something still going on between you two!
Chi Hai Dong, tell me!
Is it your child?
Plaintiff, please control your emotions.
How can I control my emotions?
How am I supposed to do that when I don't know if the child is mine?
Chi Hai Dong, you must tell us the truth today.
I demand the court to conduct a DNA test.
I'm sorry, your honor, my client's a bit emotional right now.
I'd like to have a word with him.
Yue Qun.
What?
Yue Qun, listen to me.
Now that it's her fault, we can demand compensation from her.
But if you don't listen to me then you'll get nothing.
Your honor.
Since the plaintiff has admitted that she had an affair
my client would like to counter-sue her
and demand compensation for my client's emotional trauma.
The defendant has filed a lawsuit against the plaintiff.
Please prepare the necessary evidence.
I'm sorry.
I won't allow anyone to hurt my child.
Please present your case summary.
Plaintiff, is there anything else that you'd like to say?
Your honor.
My client, Jiao Yan Yan, failed in her previous marriage.
Therefore, she especially treasured her relationship with Mr. Yue Qun.
Just like any other ordinary and innocent girl
her only wish was to have a simple life
with the man that she loves.
She never expected
that in exchange for her sacrifices
she would get only violent nightmares time and time again.
No one can possibly tolerate such torture and pain.
The spirit of our law is to make the strong face justice
while protecting the weak.
My client, Jiao Yan Yan
is both a weak woman and a mother-to-be.
I strongly believe that our law will protect her.
I sincerely request the court approve their divorce
and prove the justice of our law.
The hearing for the divorce case between Jiao Yan Yan and Yue Qun
has now concluded.
The verdict will be announced at a later date.
Court dismissed.
I really didn't do it.
You should remember what happened, right?
Your dad got so drunk that you and your mom had to carry him back.
You also saw how drunk I was.
What could I actually do that night?
I only knew she was here when I saw her note the next morning.
Please believe me.
I swear to God that I didn't do anything that night.
Then why didn't you tell me that she was here?
Because I didn't want you to get upset.
That's because you were scared.
How considerate of you.
When she trashed my place, you also said you didn't want to upset me.
You'd rather make a fool of yourself.
Have you ever thought about my feelings?
Have you?
But she already apologized to you, right?
You also forgave her already.
But that doesn't mean I'll forgive you.
Fine.
When we go to court next week
this is what I'm going to tell the judge.
I'll say that Jiao Yan Yan was lying
and nothing happened between us since our divorce, okay?
Do you want to my client to be charged with perjury?
See, you also want her to be happy.
But you shouldn't drag me into it in order to give her happiness.
You've dragged yourself into it.
Chi Hai Dong.
- Where are you? - I'm here.
Can you come out?
I'd like to talk face-to-face.
In your dreams.
Just wait until I get in there.
Here I come.
Stop pushing, what if you break my hand again?
I can break the other hand this time.
Sure, as long as it'll make you happy you can break my hand, go on.
How could it be possible?
Why would I do something like that?
I swear to God.
Since we got divorced, nothing has ever happened between us.
I know that.
What makes me mad
is that even now you still have to keep cleaning up her mess for her.
But if I don't clean up...
Look at her now.
Think about it.
You know what Yue Qun's like, right?
Can you bear to see her and her baby live with someone like that?
Chi Hai Dong, if Jiao Yan Yan's your ex-wife
then who's Luo Li?
You're my wife.
Let's get married.
Okay.
I'm serious.
So am I.
Let's get our marriage certificate the day after tomorrow, okay?
Okay.
