Chapter 185: Encountering Lawyer Fraud in the Second Instance, the Entire Person Was Completely Numb!

Published: October 28, 2026 | By Error404BrainNotFound

Sudu.

Inside a certain law firm.

After Wang Manhua and Xu Li walked out of the law firm, they let out a long breath.

According to what that lawyer said.

The probability of winning this case was very high, as high as ninety percent!

He guaranteed that they would be able to win!

Of course.

Accompanying such a high probability of victory was also expensive lawyer’s fees.

However.

For the sake of their daughter, it was worth it!

Now Wang Manhua and Xu Li only needed to wait for the second instance appeal to be successful and for the trial to be held!

After walking out of the law firm, the large stone in their hearts also fell.

“Now you are reassured, right? This lawyer is very knowledgeable, is he not? I think our daughter will certainly be acquitted this time!”

“Mm, that is correct!”

Wang Manhua smiled and nodded, and then turned back to look at the law firm:

“This is also a large law firm, there will certainly be no problem!”

“Do not worry!”

Xu Li smiled as she spoke, would her close friend possibly deceive her?


After finding Wang Yuan’s entrusted lawyer for the second instance.

Regarding Wang Yuan’s retrial litigation, it was quickly submitted.

Wang Yuan’s litigation agent lawyer argued on the grounds that the sentencing determination did not conform, and believed that although Wang Yuan had negligent conduct, it had not reached the standard for sentencing her to four years.

And believed that Wang Yuan’s negligent conduct did not constitute criminal conduct.

However, with respect to this viewpoint, the court rejected it.

After the first submission was rejected by the court.

Wang Manhua found the litigation lawyer Yang Qiang.

“Lawyer Yang, we have already paid the lawyer’s fees, this case will not fail to appeal successfully, will it? Then what about the guarantees and commitments you made to us?”

Yang Qiang smiled and spoke:

“Our entrusted contract has already stated very clearly that if the court session is not opened, I will not collect lawyer’s fees.”

“With respect to this litigation application this time, it was only an accident, do not worry…”

Facing Yang Qiang’s assurance, although Wang Manhua had some doubts, he did not think too much about it, and in any case if the court session could not be opened at that time, the other party would still need to return the lawyer’s fees.

It would only delay his daughter’s time.

Under Wang Manhua’s urging.

Immediately afterward, Yang Qiang submitted requests for retrial from several other aspects.

Finally he obtained approval for retrial from the Higher Court.

The retrial court was still the Sudu Higher Court.

After entering the retrial procedure, because this case had quite a number of people paying attention to it, the trial was conducted by way of livestream public hearing.

During the trial livestream.

Quite a number of viewers entered to watch the livestream, all waiting to see how Wang Yuan would be sentenced in the second instance.

And this trial obtained the Higher Court’s approval for retrial because Yang Qiang found Wu Guoxing.

He wanted to seek a breakthrough point from this criminal party concerned…

The trial began.

The prosecution’s attack was very sharp.

Basically it argued according to some vague viewpoints from the first trial hearing.

And with respect to these vague viewpoints, Yang Qiang simply could not determine or refute them.

Responding to the prosecution’s attack was also very difficult.

Although some breakthrough points were sought from Wu Guoxing as the party concerned, because there was no specific actual evidence they were all rejected by the Presiding Judge.

This resulted in the final outcome that the second instance maintained the first instance judgment.

Wang Yuan was still sentenced to four years of fixed term imprisonment.

Just after the judgment was announced and before it ended, Wang Manhua froze and questioned Yang Qiang directly:

“Lawyer Yang, did you not make a commitment guaranteeing that you could win the case and have my daughter released without guilt?”

“What does it mean that the second instance maintained the first instance judgment now?”

“You are not keeping your word, are you?!”

Facing this situation, Yang Qiang appeared very calm:

“When did I make a commitment guaranteeing that your daughter could be released without guilt?”

“Do you have evidence?”

“Moreover, did you see what was written in the contract your wife signed?”

“We all proceeded according to the entrusted litigation agent contract, did I not act as your agent in this case? Was the litigation in the second instance completed?”

“Was the content of our contract completed? Which part of the contract stated that I needed to win the case?”

“You have no evidence, this is a false accusation against my person, I inform you that I have the right to pursue legal responsibility against you!”

Facing Yang Qiang’s words, Wang Manhua was completely stunned.

???

What kind of situation was this?

He wanted to pursue the lawyer’s responsibility, and the other party directly said that he was falsely accusing him?

Was this not turning the situation against him?

Had he encountered an unscrupulous lawyer?

There had been a verbal guarantee and commitment, and now when he questioned the other party, the other party turned the situation against him?

Evidence…

Who would have thought to preserve this kind of evidence?

To be honest, Wang Manhua truly did not have evidence, and after being stunned for a while, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

Was this not lawyer fraud?

Not only had he failed to find a good lawyer, but instead had been defrauded of lawyer’s fees?

The trial livestream was still continuing, and in certain legal commentators’ livestream rooms people were laughing intensely.

“What does this mean? Does it mean that they encountered professional lawyer fraud? But the lawyer conducted the litigation, the contract was signed, the lawyer’s fees were paid, the task was completed, can any kind person explain whether this counts as fraud?”

“It probably does not count.”

“This lawyer seems to professionally engage in this kind of matter, since he has done this many times, then there must not be other faults that can be found!”

“Hahaha, this lawyer is truly formidable! I did not expect that while watching a trial livestream I would encounter this kind of situation, impressive!”

“I know this professional lawyer, he is quite famous within the Sudu lawyer circle, it seems he specializes in targeting certain people who urgently want to win their cases, and acts as their litigation agent while charging high lawyer’s fees.”

“Those who urgently want to win are often willing to pay such high lawyer’s fees.”

“If it is called fraud, it does not quite count, because this lawyer truly does put in effort in conducting litigation.”

“But his courtroom level can only be said to be average, it is just unknown how the two parties negotiated privately.”

“But if Wang Manhua wants to report this lawyer for fraud, it is probably impossible.”

“Remarkable!!!”


Regarding Wang Manhua’s experience and the unexpected situation that occurred during the trial, netizens also had not expected it to turn out like this.

Indeed.

In certain matters reality is even more dramatic than imagination.

Because of this influence, the trial livestream was interrupted, but in the courtroom.

Yang Qiang and Wang Manhua were still continuously arguing.

It was only that Wang Manhua could not produce evidence, and temporarily there was no way to do anything.

The result of Wang Yuan’s second instance judgment had already been determined.

Unless new evidence appeared that overturned this case, the court would not continue to accept it.

Just like Wu Guoxing’s case.

After previously losing the lawsuit against Su Bai, Wu Jianlei searched everywhere for lawyers, wanting to continue to reduce his son’s sentence.

But the lawyers he encountered all shook their heads after hearing about the case.

With respect to Yang Qiang, Wang Manhua truly felt hatred!

Regarding this kind of fraudulent conduct, he would definitely report it strictly!


Inside Baijun law Firm.

Su Bai looked at the closed trial livestream and smiled.

He had not expected that this second instance appeal by Wang Yuan would actually produce such a dramatic scene.

Lawyer fraud?

Guaranteeing that the case could be won and demanding high lawyer’s fees?

The other party had even paid high lawyer’s fees in advance…

This…

Looking at the comment section, this lawyer had not used this method only once.

It was only that this time the matter had become large, and afterward this lawyer would probably also face corresponding punishment.


At the same time.

Inside the dormitory of Nandu University of Law.

“Did you see it?”

“I saw it, I saw it!”

“Hoo… after the second instance judgment came down, does it mean that this Wang Yuan has completely been sent in?”

“Yes! Are you happy? Are you excited?”

“Happy, excited!”

Wang Kexin’s small bun hairstyle shook wildly, and after she and Li Xuezhen finished watching Wang Yuan’s second instance livestream, both appeared extremely excited.

At this time, Wang Kexin spoke:

“Xuezhen…”

“Every time you follow Lawyer Su to court trials, do you randomly send people in?”

“Is that feeling very good…?”

Li Xuezhen nodded seriously and discussed experience together with Wang Kexin.

“It is alright… mainly the feeling of conducting litigation together with Lawyer Su each time is very good, sending people in is only incidental…”

“Oh.”

Wang Kexin’s face was excited, and she murmured softly:

“I wonder when I will be able to send people in like Lawyer Su…”

“Ah—”

Li Xuezhen smiled and comforted Wang Kexin:

“Do not worry, we will all have opportunities in the future…”

“Mm!”

Wang Kexin nodded solemnly.


Beidu.

Inside Luo Daxiang’s office.

Recently there had been relatively many teaching activities at the school, and as a professor Luo Daxiang did not have too much time to conduct legal commentary.

After the school rearranged the course teaching yesterday, he only then obtained some free time during these few days.

Looking at his Moments and the recently famous cases in the legal field as well as the litigation information among them.

Luo Daxiang smiled and silently recited:

It seems that during this period Baijun law Firm has conducted quite a number of lawsuits, and they have all been relatively famous cases.

It is estimated that Su Bai is now also a top criminal lawyer within the domestic criminal law circle.

He belongs to the top tier of lawyers.

Speaking of which…

He had also not contacted Su Bai for quite a long period of time.

Mainly because during this period he had been busy and did not have too much spare time.

After finishing reviewing those court cases.

Luo Daxiang again checked the message section that he had specially set up.

This message section was a method set up for certain ordinary people who had trial needs but could not find good lawyers or did not have lawyer resources, so that they could obtain legal rights protection.

Most of the cases in the message section were criminal cases.

Luo Daxiang would select some relatively difficult cases among them and ask whether there were lawyers around him willing to accept such cases.

Some lawyers liked to accept cases with topicality in order to increase their own reputation.

At the same time they could also properly handle the entrusted party’s lawsuit.

He introduced good case sources to lawyers, the lawyers handled the litigation well and solved the parties’ problems.

This could be regarded as mutually beneficial.

After scanning the recent messages.

Luo Daxiang’s gaze focused on one of the criminal cases.

This case…

Was a death penalty defense as the defendant’s side…

Luo Daxiang frowned slightly, this kind of death penalty defense was not easy to handle!


Baijun law Firm.

Inside the office, Su Bai was discussing with the other lawyers of the firm the development situation of the firm during the recent period.

Overall, Baijun law Firm was flourishing.

There was not much content in the discussion, and it mainly concerned case analysis and what difficulties had been encountered in recent cases and how to resolve them, and everyone sat together to discuss and exchange views.

After the discussion was completed.

Only Su Bai remained alone in the office, and having nothing to do, Su Bai again took a look at the system.

How should it be said…

Forget it, forget it…

Su Bai roughly glanced over it and then skipped past it, and immediately afterward noticed that Luo Daxiang had sent over a detailed introduction of a case.

Case: intentional homicide case, defense lawyer for the defendant’s side.

Reason for the killing: according to the prosecution’s accusation, it was premeditated homicide…

Recommended sentence by the prosecution: death penalty.

General introduction of the case: insulting the mother… revenge leading to intentional injury.

“…”

“Lawyer Su… this is a case that I recently saw, many lawyers are unwilling to accept it.”

“There are quite a number of opinions about this case on the internet, does Lawyer Su have interest?”

Su Bai looked at the case and smiled… and replied with one sentence.

“Yes!”
