Medalist Lawyer Heirs
Episode 29
Since you've acknowledged that family is more important than wealth,
you have to persist with your idea.
Of course, without any affection
would good would wealth be.
You know,
after my father passed, the thing I regretted the most
was being forced apart for more than forty years.
If I could go back in time,
no matter how my father hit or yelled at me and tried to kick me out,
I would not have left him.
Even if he was wrong?
There is no wrong or right between a father and his son.
Oh right, do you know why I gave up my father's inheritance case?
You-
It was because Secretary Yu was once your girlfriend.
You didn't want that to be exposed and hurt your father's reputation.
Hey, then did you make up later?
Not yet.
It was her that kicked me out of my father's house.
So I came here to rent housing.
Wait up, what do you mean?
You guys didn't file a lawsuit and didn't make up.
The house was also taken by her?
Then you gave up all your father's old artifacts?
Of course not.
But I can't do anything.
Let me tell you,
inheritance cases' litigation period is two years.
What does that mean? It means that from the moment your rights were violated,
as long as if it's within two years, you can bring back up.
You're really leaving?
Too much has gone on these past few days.
I,
I went to go out and relax.
Don't worry.
I'm still your daughter.
I will come visit often.
Right now, I have a new task.
To help you find your child.
Even if it's to repay you for your kindness these past twenty years.
Whose house?
It's our class's Wei Wei, who married and left for England.
Wang Wei?
His house was kept in my hands. I occasionally come and keep it clean.
And he told me that if there's any emergency, you can stay here.
Don't worry and and stay here.
I'll buy some good food for you.
Look around, I'll grab your stuff up.
Tang Ning.
Eat some food.
I brought the food you like.
If you don't want to eat, have something to drink.
Tell me. What do you want to eat?
Whatever it is, I can buy or make it for you.
Okay?
You can't be like this. Your body can't handle.
I"m begging you. You're really scaring me.
Hello? Zheng Hao. Where are you?
Okay, I'll come find you.
You're so early Dai Bo.
Sorry Aunt, I'm intruding.
Has Xiao Ning contacted you?
She hasn't. She told me she's going to help me find my child.
But after she left, I haven't heard from her.
Has she not contacted you either?
Then where would she go on her own? Where would she even go to look?
Auntie, don't worry.
Xiao Ning is a lot stronger than you think.
She's very independent.
This is my fault. I wanted to win so badly.
In the end, I lost my common. I didn't get to handle the case well.
No no Dai Bo. Don't be so hard on yourself. I don't mean to place the blame on you.
I'm just worried that Xiao Ning, she-
Where would she go on her own?
It's been twenty years.
And she just talked about finding my child.
Then what about her parents? Where are they?
This child is the same as me. Shouldn't she be in a rush?
If she can't find her parents, then doesn't she become an orphan?!
Auntie, you're right.
Truthfully, the fastest way to find your child
is to find Tang Ning's biological parents.
Because your child must be at her home.

-Zheng Hao. -What's up?
What happened with Tang Ning?
Zheng Hao. I'm asking you to persuade Tang Ning. I found a place for her to live
and she hasn't eaten anything for three days. She's surviving on one breath.
I'm afraid something will go wrong with her. I know her really well.
She has always taken everything to heart since she was young. This time must have been too much of a shock to her.
I'm afraid she can't get over this bump.
She's living here.
Thanks.

Do you still remember what I told you?
No matter what happens,
I will be with you.
From now on,
I'm not allowing you to leave me.

No matter what happens in the future,
you're not allowed to say the two words: break up.
You think I wanted to break up? I didn't.
To this moment, I've told you everything.
The first time I broke up with you
was because Zhong Ke Ming came to me.
He begged me to leave you.
He said he wanted to give you the best life, the best future.
That everything he could give you, I could not.
So,
I could only leave you.
This relationship is between us. No one has the right.
Including Zhong Ke Ming.
The thing we need to do now
is quickly find your parents.
It's not us, it's me.
I don't want you, just because of me,
to collide with Zhong Ke Ming.
Also right now,
I don't want to find my parents,
but to help Xia Yun find her child.
They raised me for over twenty years.
I think I need to do something for them.
♫ If closely dependent on each other, it can produce the theme of love ♫
Why are you here again?
Aren't you afraid to meet Tang Jing?
Tang Jing?
She's the replacement president at Tang Ye Corporation. Where does she have the time to come?
It's quiet here, let's talk deep.
We're two grown men here, what deep talk.
True true true. Us two grown men don't have much to talk about.
But I want to talk to you about Tang Ning.
Right.
I haven't thanked you yet.
Last time it was all because of your account and password
that I was able to find Tang Ning so easily.
-No problem. -Thanks.
You talked about Tang Ning leaving and I wanted to talk to you about it.
Because you should know how hard of a circumstance it was for Tang Ning to leave.
She had to think about you and Zhong Ke Ming's father-son relationship,
and also had to deal with the relationship she and Zhong Ke Ming's had based on the law.
And you two... you get it right?
So her leaving was the best choice.
Also, Zhong Ke Ming had begged her.
I just think that, watching you two, a heart-tormentingly affectionate couple,
my heart hurts.
Right. Thinking about it now remember how Tang Ning had just returned,
and was working as your secretary at Tian He.
She would follow you every single day.
She was always so bubbly and smiley. Good times.
And then you two investigated cases together and went to court.
It was all fun and games. There was nothing to worry about .
Of course, there were a lot of struggles along the way. We all understand.
But she didn't think so.
Last time when I helped you find Tang Ning
it was the first time ever since knowing Tang Ning
that I was acknowledged as bestie.
But I think it's super worth.
Because I know what her heart wants.
Because I know she was really happy
with you.
Okay, let's not talk about this heavy stuff.
Here, cheers to you.
I hope you two will have a happy ending.
Here.
Thanks.
Come in.
Hey brother. I've understood the situation.
Zheng Hao, after moving out of the company's housing,
has moved back into his family's old house.
Isn't that house for his brother?
This time his brother has allowed him to go back.
I don't know what happened exactly.
Okay, I got it.
Brother,
how is my sister-in-law's condition?
The doctor said it doesn't look too good.
Oh dear.
I heard from Tang Ning that President Tang
left all Tang Ning's shares for her
and that she's been appointed president.
This was all of her willing decisions.
Is the board meeting ready?
Miss Tang, this is the chairman's seat.
Your dad will be sitting here later.
I'm here on behalf of the chairman. I should be sitting here.
Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing, stop messing around.
I'm not messing around.
My mother is chairwoman, what she says goes.
Since you've all notified me of this board meeting,
that means you've all agreed to me taking over the chairman's seat.
We called you here to let you know that
you representing the chairman is not correct according to the company's rules and regulations.
Today we're having this meeting
to stop you from your actions.
What do you mean?
Are you kicking me out of this position?
No way!
The meeting is dismissed.

Xiao Ning.
Dai Bo. -Do you want orange juice?
No thanks.
I heard you're leaving Tian He Law Office?
Yeah.
The news sure got out fast.
I just told Boss Xue, and you know?
Why are you leaving?
I lost my first case when I first came Tian He Law Office.
I didn't help Boss Xue earn money.
I made a mistake and I lost face.
How can I not leave?
It's all because of me.
My case pulled you down and Boss Xue.
Brother Dai Bo,
everyone is afraid of harming Zhong Ke Ming's reputation,
if you leave Tian He Law Office, where can you go?
I'm just joking with you!
I'm not leaving Tian He Law Office because of your case.
Let me tell you. I have a classmate called Cheng Jian.
He's going to England to get his Ph.D.
He's planning to turn his law office over to me.
You're going independent?
How much money does that take?
No money.
Would you believe it?
He said that once I take over his place,
it's fine as long as if the lawyers working there don't go hungry.
That good?
Hey Bo Ge, take me with you then.
Okay.
No,
Boss Xue will be mad if I leave right after you leave.
Boss Xue won't be mad. I'll talk to him.
How about it?
Sure.
Come with me later to visit the office.
Okay!
Go back quickly. Even though you're here in person,
your heart has flown off to Liu Ying. Go back and tidy up your stuff.
I'm leaving all my lawyers to you.
Don't worry. Since I've taken over, I will take it to the end.
Have you looked over the contract? If there aren't any problems, sign it quickly.
I'm still waiting to buy a plane ticket.
No problem, I'll definitely sign it.
Great. If you ever go to England, make sure to see me.
-Sure. -I won't see you two out then.
-I've got work to do. -Bye bye.
Bye.
Here.
This is Bo Ge's law office.
How was it?
Starting a business isn't bad either...
Here.
Xiao Ning, this is the signed contract.
Keep it.
Why am I keeping it? I'm not buying it.
Of course it's you buying. It's not me.
I'm your partner, later you'll look over this law office.
-What do you mean?-Isn't this pretty great?
Remember when you were at Harvard and would message me online
saying that after you got back you wanted to open a law firm?
Dai Bo is helping you achieve your dreams step by step.
That's right. I've got all the requirements down.
There's an office and there's a team.
It's just missing a good name. Once we have one, we're ready to open.
But as for the name, I've helped you think of one.
I think we should call it
the Ning Ning Law Firm. How is it?
That's so old-fashioned. Who uses their own name?!
No no no. I think it's pretty good.
Ning is your name but it also has other meanings.
It has a double meaning.
Okay, go ahead.
I think Ning can also mean,
one would rather be poor and live blandly, than possess tainted wealth.
Although we've opened a law firm to earn a living,
we must not only ask for monetary profits.
We need to operate with the principle of solving people's worries using the laws.
That's pretty good. Any others?
Also,
this one is easy.
It is better to die in glory than in disgrace.
Fairness and justification in law
is like a white and flawless piece of jade.
To protect it from being dirties,
we would rather sacrifice ourselves and be crushed.
Not bad, Zhou Tong. Your aimless fabrication was not too bad.
- How was it aimless?- If Brother Dai Bo really
calls it Ning Ning Law Firm Office, I also have my own insight.
Let's hear it.
It's nothing good if the plaintiff files for a lawsuit.
Military forces should be used only for the upkeep of peace and order. The purest form of law has no litigation.
The Ning in my name would mean, resolving an argument.
That is indeed better than mine.
Don't interrupt, continue listening.
Fighting in a lawsuit is just for the two things of truth and benefits.
You see? Do you see what being a bestie means?
She's been by my side for so long
-that she's become more like me right?-I haven't.
Dai Bo Ge,
I applaud you on picking that name.
Since you agree, then this is it.
It will be called Ning Ning Law Office.
Okay. Here, let's cheers.
-Thank you Dai Bo Ge.-Cheers!
Brother-in-law.
Board of directors meeting will be simple but share holder meeting will be hard to say.
President Tang has many votes on his side.
So we need to gather up both big and small share holder's votes.
Oh.
Is the notice for the share holder's meeting ready?
It's ready.
According to the company rule, the notice will be mail out 10 day in advance.
In the share holder list,
Does President Tang's contact info list his home address or the company's?
Oh it's his company address.
You've got that down.
Then, should I send the invite directly to President Tang at the hospital?
Send it to the hospital?
You want her to come to vote against us?
Oh, I understand.
I will send the invite to the company.
Then President won't receive the invite.
And his vote will be void.
-Go on. -Okay.
- Over here? - Yes, you think it is not good enough?
My good brother Cheng passed this to me free of charge.
You are expecting it to be as grant as Hai Ming Law Office?
The first time I visited I didn't expect such a street to have a law firm.
-Here we are.-Oh.
Please come in.
Ning Ning Law Firm
I need to see you. Could you come out a bit?
Hi.
You took a law firm and now you don't want me?
I'm unemployed now.
Are you hiring here?
There are a lot of websites to find a job.
Why did you come looking for me?
You know, I'm quite talented.
I can do anything right?
Cleaning and cooking food...
Other than those things,
I can do everything else.
I'm missing an assistant manager.
Master!
Thank you everyone for turning up. The ceremony begins now!
I announce
that from today forward, Ning Ning Law Firm is officially in business!
Here you go.
Ning Ning Law Firm
Woah! Here!
Hey hey hey!
Ning Ning Law Office! Ning Ning Law Office!
-Thank you, thank you! Why isn't Zheng Hao here?
-Oh right!-Yeah where is Zheng Hao, how could he not come?
I"m right here!
He's right there!
What are you hiding there for?
Why are you hiding here?
What is this?
Take a look and you'll know.
Look at it!
It's so mysterious.
Wow.
Today is a great day for Ning Ning Law Firm.
I brought my family's most precious Goddess of Justice statue.
I'm donating it to Ning Ning Law Firm.
This is what your dad left you. How can you give it to me?
Well, I'm also now part of Ning Ning Law Firm.
How can you call it giving.
Zheng Hao is right. He's part of this too.
This is counting as the gift for joining in.
The Goddess of Justice represents all that is just and fair.
Zheng Hao has lugged his precious family heirloom to our Ning Ning Law firm,
and gift it to Tang Ning. Then our Ning Ning Law Firm will only raise (being successful) day by day, right?
Okay!!
Dad, how could you get rid of mom's chairwoman position?
She's sick right?
Even if it's like this,
Mom did instruct me to take over the chairwoman position.
That is not legal. You're still not a trustee.
What's illegal?
Then make me a trustee.
The others don't want to.
Why? They want to rebel?
You hurt their money. Why would they not?
Also, representing the chairwoman these few weeks
has harmed so many contracts and customers.
That is because of your management is too old school.
What age are we living in? You're still holding tightly onto real estate.
This is such an old method.
Don't bring all those American ways here.
Then I don't care. I won't let you guys take down mom's position.
Mom will be furious.
Then don't tell her.
I will definitely tell her.
And on that day of voting, she will come and cast a vote against you.
If you're not afraid of angering her so much she can't stand up,
then tell her.

Cousin. As for the notice for share holder...besides Tang chairwoman,
All the other members have received it.
President Tang will also receive it.
What is it?
You didn't see?
All this time,
Tang Jing has been coming to the company.
She will definitely tell President Tang.
Then what should we do?
Well,. a wise person reflecting a thousand times can stillmake a mistake. (Idiom - nobody is infallible.)
I didn't take into account this.
If Tang Li Qun came and vote against us,
then I have wasted all my previous efforts.
Lawyer Tang. Could you keep a secret of my will?
Of course, we will help you keep it.
You definitely have to help me keep it. Or else that daughter and son of mine
will bother me constantly.
-Hello, are you here for a consultation? -I'm looking for Lawyer Tang.
Lawyer Tang. Someone is looking for you.
Xiao Jing.
What is it?
Ning Jie,
My dad got rid of my mom's chairwoman position.
But I'm afraid to tell her.
In a few days, there will be a share holder's meeting.
I don't know what to do.
When you go back to tell Auntie, she has a lot of shares,
as long as she vote against it,
the motion most likely won't be able to go through at the share holder's meeting.
But I'm afraid to tell her.
What are you afraid of?
Sis, you probably don't know yet.
But after my mom got surgery, she's become so frail.
The doctor said to elongate her life,
her family members can't have her hearing or seeing
anything that will provoke her emotions.
Don't cry.
Here,
come with me to visit her.
I can't. I'm afraid her emotions will rise if she sees you.
So... I was afraid of telling her about the share holder's meeting.
Then what should we do? We can't just leave it to your dad.
This involves Tang Ye Corporation's secret.
So I couldn't go out and ask other lawyers.
I thought about it for so long and I could only think of you to help.
I know I've been bad to you these past years.
But on behalf of my mother loving you, can you please help me.
Don't say that.
I have a solution.
We will come up with a power of attorney authorization letter. You try to get your Mom to sign it.
We can go to the share holder meeting for her.
As long as if there's anything that'll harm her, we'll cast a vote against it.
Okay. Then I'll go right now to the hospital to have my mom sign it.
Don't rush right now.
I will get ready that commission.
