i gave myself away
Chapter 21
Before that, time goes back to the morning three days ago.
Shi Mo's father suddenly told Shi Mo good news.
"Son, I've thought about it for a while. I really did something wrong and caused you a lot of trouble. I can't go down like this anymore. You shouldn't bear the responsibility of this family alone." Father shook his head and sighed, apologizing Patted Shi Mo on the shoulder, with tears in his eyes, "A few days ago, I saw that the community on the road ahead was recruiting security guards, so I applied for the job. I didn't tell you, for fear that you would disagree. Now the interview If you pass it, you will get a monthly salary of [-] yuan, three insurances and one housing fund, board and lodging, and you won’t have to take care of me in the future. Just do what you want, and when it’s stable, I’ll go back to business and repay the loan together. "
"Dad..." Shi Mo's heart felt hot, and he hugged his father with tears in his eyes, "We will face any difficulties together."
Father wiped away the tears from Shi Mo's eyes, and said sadly: "You have worked so hard these past few years, it's dad's fault, dad is sorry for you."
Shi Mo patted his father on the back and said excitedly: "It's okay, as long as Dad comes back, hard work is nothing."
"Dad, I'm sorry for making you incur huge debts at such a young age. Alas, it's all my fault that I got greedy for a while and hurt you." Father slapped his thigh and sighed, "Have you paid back the 1000 million?"
"Well, I borrowed money from a friend and paid it back, but our family's old debts haven't been paid yet. Dad, look." Now that his father decided to take on the debt together, Shi Mo didn't hide it anymore. He took out the account book and explained the situation to his father in detail , "We still have [-] in arrears, my monthly salary is [-], yours is [-], add up to [-], and leave [-] for family expenses and transportation expenses, which can be repaid every month Six thousand, it can be paid off in more than a year."
"Okay, okay," my father nodded and asked, "What about the 1000 million loan? How much is the interest and the repayment period?"
Shi Mo paused, Xie Jincheng didn't contact him since he gave the IOU that day, and he was busy with his father's affairs, so he didn't ask Xie Jincheng, but the interest rate is probably not low.He didn't want his father to worry, so he lied and said, "Dad, he is my good friend. He doesn't charge me interest, and he doesn't set a deadline for repayment. He said that if I have money, I will pay it back. If I don't have money, I will guarantee my life first. If I save more, I will pay it back." ,Not in a hurry."
The father gave a thumbs up: "Your friend is really loyal, you have to treat your friend well, and in the future, if your friend is busy, you must help him as soon as possible."
"That's for sure! He's my best friend."
That afternoon, my father reported to the community, and he will live in the dormitory of the community in the future. Fortunately, the community is not far from home, and my father can come back to have a look during his break.
With his father now, the house is no longer filled with the smell of alcohol, the amount of red debt has gradually decreased, and life is slowly improving.
Holding the ledger, Shi Mo happily fantasized that the public security organs did not find him again, which meant that the dispute between him and the Li family had been properly resolved, and his work would be back on track, he would take on more cases, earn more money, and pay back More than 1000 million arrears were cleared.
The next afternoon, he received a case with a bid of 100 million.
The law firm has recently avoided making troubles, allocating him with trivial civil cases, and sometimes administrative and state compensation cases, which is not conducive to increasing his reputation at all.
It was rare to assign him a case with a higher bid today. He was so happy that he couldn't sit still when he was waiting for the client.
The client came, unexpectedly, it was someone he knew.
Yu Qi, the former director of the academic affairs office of the high school he used to teach, heard that the year he resigned, the director also resigned to start a business, and now he has become the big boss.
He and Yu Qi have met each other several times, but they are not very familiar, they just know each other's names.
Yu Qi recognized Shi Mo, and when he saw him, he happily stepped forward to shake hands: "Hello, Lawyer Shi, how are you doing now?"
"Very good, what about Mr. Yu, isn't the business getting bigger and bigger?" Shi Mo invited Yu Qi to take a seat and poured him a cup of tea.
"Yes, the business has been very good these past few years." Yu Qi leaned forward and handed Shi Mo a cigarette, and Shi Mo thanked him.
"Thank you, I don't smoke."
"That's a pity. Smoking can make people feel refreshed." Yu Qi crossed his legs, took out an expensive metal lighter, lit the cigarette, and blew out a smoke ring, "I heard Fang Ping said that you work here, and I thought you were an acquaintance. Good job, I'll come to you."
"Are you in contact with Fang Ping?" Shi Mo said pleasantly, Fang Ping was the student he was most proud of, and now he also runs a computer business department on his own, and he wanted to hire him to represent him in a lawsuit last time, but the clinker went wrong. Let Xie Jincheng pick it up, and I don't know what's going on with the case. "How is he now?"
"I did a business deal with him once. He is very good. His lawsuit was successful and his business is booming. He said he has been looking for an opportunity to invite you to dinner, but he has no time."
"It's okay, as long as you're thinking about it." Shi Mo smiled sarcastically.If you really want to invite me to dinner, you have invited me a long time ago, why wait until now?
"Let's not talk about this." Yu Qi took the materials from the accompanying secretary and handed them to Shi Mo, "You can take a look at the materials of my case, and I will tell you the facts of the case."
The case is not complicated, the plaintiff is Yu Qi himself, and the defendant is the insurance company.When Yu Qi was driving on the expressway, the front of the car hit the guardrail due to the rain and slippery road, and Yu Qi was slightly injured.In order to get to the hospital as soon as possible, Yu Qi contacted his secretary to the scene of the accident and drove the accident vehicle back for him, while he drove the secretary's car to the city for medical treatment.After the accident, he claimed from the insurance company, but the insurance company refused to pay, so he wanted to take the insurance company to court.
"What is the reason for the insurance company not to pay?" Shi Mo frowned. Hearing Yu Qi's one-sided words, Yu Qi was indeed wronged and innocent. May not pay.
"Is there any other reason, I just want to earn the insurance premium, and I don't want to pay for it." Yu Qi angrily stubbed out his cigarette, "My car has been appraised and deserves a premium of 100 million. If you don't admit it, you don't want to pay."
"I would like to ask a question." Shi Mo looked through Yu Qi's insurance contract, thought of a possibility, and asked tentatively, "Did you drink alcohol on the day of the accident?"
Yu Qi's face changed, and his tone suddenly became very angry: "Why are you asking this, does this have anything to do with the insurance company's repudiation?"
Shi Mo told the truth: "According to the provisions of the insurance law, if the owner of the car has excessive drinking behavior when the car insurance is out, the accident is the owner's responsibility, and the insurance company will not pay the compensation."
"What about drinking? My car skids when it's raining." Yu Qi hesitated guiltily, "The insurance company just doesn't pay the compensation on purpose."
The more Shi Mo thought about it, the more he felt that things were not simple. When the policyholder applied for the insurance, the insurance company would clearly explain to the policyholder that no compensation would be paid. If he really drank too much alcohol when the accident occurred, then he would be defrauded if he wanted the insurance company to pay. The premium is suspected. A premium of 100 million yuan is not a small amount. It constitutes a fraud both legally and morally.
Shi Mo got to the bottom of it: "May I ask if there is a "Traffic Accident Certificate" issued by the traffic department?"
"I didn't bring it," Yu Qi said impatiently, "what do you want that thing for? The accident was determined to be skidding in rainy weather."
"Sorry," Shi Mo said cautiously, trying to calm down his tone, "I just want to see more evidence so that I can act as an agent."
"Okay, Lawyer Shi." Yu Qi stood up irritably, put away all the materials, deliberately looked at the time on the watch, and pretended to leave in a hurry, "I still have something to do, we will talk next time when we have a chance, You are also a busy person, so I won't bother you." After speaking, he left without looking back.
Before closing the door, Shi Mo heard the vague conversation between Yu Qi and the secretary.
"Mr. Yu, do you need to change the attorney?"
"Of course I have to change. Otherwise, will I entrust this stupid young man to harm me? He really thinks of himself. If he didn't want to find an acquaintance to save some legal fees, why would I ask him to make things difficult for me. Tell Fang Ping later, in the future Don't entrust him with any lawsuits from relatives and friends, maybe he betrayed his own people."
They walked away, only the sound of Shi Mo's breathing remained in the quiet reception room, he stared at the ashtray steadfastly and absentmindedly, the freshly extinguished cigarette still gave off a faint smell of smoke, which made people dizzy.
Once again he questioned his abilities.Is he really fit to be a lawyer?He can't speak for the client against his conscience, and he can't harm others for the sake of profit. He is not tactful, and he doesn't know how to please the client. In fact, he has no qualifications to be a lawyer at all.
The business manager approached him again, and said to him in a helpless and resentful tone: "Shi Mo, I already know the matter. The client decided not to entrust you to represent him in the lawsuit. What do you want to say? ?"
"I have nothing to say." Shi Mo's eyes were blank.
"Shimo, although it is cruel to say this, you are really not suitable for this industry. Your contract will end in half a month. I sincerely advise you to terminate the contract and change careers." It’s been a year, and I haven’t made any achievements, but it has caused a lot of trouble. The complaints about you are still making a fuss on the Internet. Not only you, but also the reputation of our law firm has been affected. The number and quality of cases have dropped rapidly. We are very grateful Cherish every lawyer, and thank you very much for looking up to our law firm and coming here, but we are businessmen, we want to make money and have a reputation, and we cannot harm the entire law firm because of you alone. We have decided not to give you any more points. After half a month, I will pay you the wages you deserve as scheduled. As for how to go in the future, you should use this half month to think carefully."
When Shi Mo bid farewell to the business manager, it was just overcast and suddenly drizzled. The rain was not heavy, but the chill penetrated into the bare skin and pierced into the bones.
In half a month, he will be unemployed. If he doesn't have this lucrative job, how can he repay the [-] million debt?During the gap between finding the next job, he still needs to live, repay the loan, and use money.Where and what the next job will be like, he has no way of predicting, and he doesn't even know what else he can do.
Money, the root of all evils, forced him to raise his head high and then lower it humblely.
And life always gets worse at the worst times.His creditor called and said that he needed money urgently due to an accident at home, and asked him to raise money as soon as possible within three days and return the principal and interest of 12 yuan.
He put down the phone in a daze, and looked at the name on the phone, feeling extremely strange.He returned home, opened the closet, took out the most precious suit, and stared blankly.This is a relic left to him by his mother, and it is also his most valuable item at present. If he sells it, he can transfer a huge sum of money to his poor account, but the price is that he will lose the love left by his mother.
Life always forces people to make a choice. Holding the suit, he lightly stroked the fine-feeling wool, lightly touched the smooth polished diamond button, touched it again and again reluctantly, then put it away cruelly, and went online Find ways to resell.
When he clicked on the browser, it automatically returned to the interface that he hadn't closed normally last time. The content of a post was shocking.
Shi Mo's father suddenly told Shi Mo good news.
"Son, I've thought about it for a while. I really did something wrong and caused you a lot of trouble. I can't go down like this anymore. You shouldn't bear the responsibility of this family alone."

"Dad..." Shi Mo's heart felt hot, and he hugged his father with tears in his eyes, "We will face any difficulties together."
Father wiped away the tears from Shi Mo's eyes, and said sadly: "You have worked so hard these past few years, it's dad's fault, dad is sorry for you."
