Published: June 29, 2026 | By Error404BrainNotFound

Haifang Law Firm.

When Xiao Haibo faced a dark skinned burly man who came to seek legal assistance, he slightly nodded and asked:

“Tell me then, what is the situation of this case…”

“Alright alright.”

The burly man hurriedly nodded: “It is like this Lawyer Xiao.”

“…”

Half an hour later.

After the burly man finished stating the course of the case.

There was clearly a trace of nervousness in his eyes:

“Lawyer Xiao, I came after being introduced by an old friend of mine, he said your law firm is very powerful and can win any case.”

“So I came to consult you Lawyer Xiao…”

“This case, I know it is a bit troublesome, so I would like to ask Lawyer Xiao to help… Lawyer Xiao, do you think this case can be fought?”

After listening to the dark skinned burly man describe the entire case once.

Xiao Haibo asked several questions, then slightly frowned.

He indeed could take this case without any problem.

But he was not proficient in this type of case.

He had no confidence at all regarding whether it could be won.

According to the burly man’s description, this case very obviously had already involved other aspects of law and a certain degree of administrative litigation.

It must be known that regarding administrative litigation in this aspect.

It is not easy to handle!

Moreover, he specialized in civil matters and had certain research regarding civil litigation and civil cases.

But regarding other areas of law and administrative law, how should it be said, he was not very familiar.

Every lawyer has each lawyer’s field of expertise.

When it involves administrative aspects.

It indeed can be fought, but it is not certain that it can be won.

For a lawyer like him, if a lawsuit cannot be won, it is very likely to damage his own reputation, and the impact is very great.

Xiao Haibo took a deep breath and asked:

“Regarding this case, have you sought out other law firms?”

The burly man slowly shook his head, his expression appearing somewhat restrained:

“For this case, I have not looked for other law firms, I first came to Haifang Law Firm.”

“That is to say Lawyer Xiao you.”

The burly man saw Xiao Haibo’s difficulty and cautiously asked:

“Lawyer Xiao, is this case very difficult to fight… cannot be won?”

Xiao Haibo smiled and shook his head: “How should this case be described, there is a certain degree of difficulty, but it has not yet reached the level of being completely impossible to win.”

“The main reason it is difficult to fight is that I am a lawyer who mainly focuses on civil matters, and I am not very proficient in administrative litigation and other aspects.”

“Your case not only involves administrative litigation, but also involves a certain degree of criminal litigation.”

“These two aspects are not fields in which I am proficient.”

“Regarding this point, there is no need for me to conceal it, it is necessary to inform you in advance.”

“However.”

“I can help you introduce other lawyers who are proficient in administrative litigation and criminal litigation, of course this is established on the condition that you are willing to accept it.”

“If you are unwilling, you can go find other law firms, this point depends on your own intention.”

“Alright, thank you Lawyer Xiao, then I will trouble Lawyer Xiao.”

“I do not know other lawyers, I will still trouble Lawyer Xiao to help introduce other lawyers and recommend some.”

The face of the dark skinned burly man was full of gratitude.

Xiao Haibo smiled and nodded, did not say much more, after seeing the dark skinned burly man off he slightly frowned and thought about whom to find to help.

Several seconds later.

He dialed a phone number.

“Lawyer Wang ah… yes it is me.”

“I have a case here that came to our law firm, it concerns other criminal matters and administrative matters yes yes yes.”

“Listen?”

“Then I will briefly talk about it, alright alright alright.”

“.”

After Xiao Haibo finished explaining, Lawyer Wang remained silent and thought for several seconds, then refused this case entrustment.

“This case is not easy to fight, if the court hearing loses it will affect reputation.”

Xiao Haibo asked doubtfully:

“Cannot be fought? Do you not mainly handle administrative litigation?”

“But this case also has certain criminal elements, I am not very familiar with criminal matters in this aspect.”

“Indeed, that is also true, after all the matters involved are somewhat troublesome, alright alright, then thank you, I will ask other people again, if it really does not work I will let the client find other law firms.”

“Mm, alright.”

“Thank you…”

“It is nothing…”

After exchanging a few polite words and hanging up the phone, Xiao Haibo let out a long breath, drank a sip of tea, sat on the sofa, and flipped through his contact list.

For a moment he also did not know whom to find to fight this lawsuit.

This case was introduced by that dark skinned burly man’s old friend, that old friend’s relationship with him, how should it be described, the relationship was still acceptable.

Whenever there were cases they would come to their law firm, he could be considered a regular client.

There were certain business dealings.

Although not a major client, he was also not a small client.

If he directly refused, it would certainly have a certain impact on the client.

But this case was indeed somewhat difficult!

Xiao Haibo took a sip of tea, then let out a long breath, thinking about how to resolve this matter.


At the same time.

Inside Baijun law Firm.

Su Bai was holding a law firm meeting, briefly emphasizing and analyzing the approximate planning and development issues of the law firm.

At the same time he emphasized.

That the two newly arrived interns, Wang Kexin and Wang Kangjie, if they had anything they did not understand they could ask more, and if they were embarrassed to ask their supervising lawyer, they could ask Li Xuezhen more.

Only.

To be honest.

Su Bai was still worried that Li Xuezhen would lead the two intern lawyers astray.

Tsk tsk tsk.

Su Bai shook his head and temporarily did not continue thinking further about this issue.

After the meeting ended, Su Bai again briefly summarized the law firm’s business.

The law firm’s current main business had several aspects:

First: civil and civil commercial matters.

Second: small scale criminal matters.

Third: corporate business cooperation.

According to the law firm’s current performance, these three aspects had all brought considerable income to the law firm.

However recently.

The law firm also had no business that could be expanded, which made Su Bai become idle.

On the first day of being idle, tsk tsk tsk, the days were quite good!

On the second day of being idle, tsk tsk, the days were still alright.

On the third day, somewhat bored.

On the fourth day, teaching the interns, attempting to straighten Little Li who had grown crooked.

And.

He could no longer let Little Li lead other interns astray.

On the fifth day, alright, failure, straightening Little Li who had grown crooked was a task with a long way to go, this matter needed long term planning.

At the same time, he very much wanted to have a powerful case to fight, being idle made him somewhat uncomfortable.

In addition, he also chatted with Xu Xiang and Duan Liang about the law firm’s cases.

On the sixth day, tsk tsk, hoping for a powerful case to come!!

Continue expanding the law firm’s influence!!

On the seventh day, Su Bai was boredly scrolling through Moments and saw the Moments posted by Xiao Haibo.

Content: Recently received a difficult case concerning administrative litigation and criminal law, friends who have ideas can all come take a look.

Mutual friend: Tsk this case is somewhat difficult! Criminal law and administrative litigation. This case probably requires administrative reconsideration right?

It seems likely to be one against two?

Most likely yes. This case is not easy to fight, cannot help.

Lawyer Xiao, your law firm cannot handle this case, and you post it on Moments, do you think we can handle it?

The content in Moments was approximately these, after Xiao Haibo saw the content of these comments he slightly frowned.

He naturally knew it was not easy to fight, otherwise he would not have asked on Moments.

Was he not forced to this point.

Only.

This case indeed was somewhat difficult, those who had ability did not look favorably upon it, those who lacked ability could not fight it.

Hoo.

Perhaps push it away.

While Xiao Haibo was thinking, he suddenly noticed a like on Moments.

Su Bai liked your Moments

Xiao Haibo suddenly slapped his forehead, how did he forget Su Bai!

For this case he had only been thinking about the administrative aspect, but there was also the criminal aspect!

Previously he had always been looking for lawyer partners in administrative litigation, the reason the other party was unwilling was because this case, besides involving administrative aspects, also involved criminal aspects.

Especially this case, in the criminal aspect was also equally difficult.

Moreover for those first class lawyers, honestly speaking this case was somewhat small, spending so much effort to take such a case was not worth it.

Moreover.

They were all first class lawyers from large law firms, they disdained fighting this kind of case.

Su Bai’s law firm should need it!

And in the criminal aspect.

Su Bai had skill in handling this!

Absolutely a top tier criminal case lawyer!

If this case were handed to Su Bai, at the very least the problems in the criminal aspect could also be resolved!

Thinking of this, Xiao Haibo immediately sent Su Bai a message:

Busy or not?

Not busy.

If not busy… Lawyer Su, the case I posted on my Moments, interested or not?

Su Bai: This case is somewhat interesting.

Ahem. Such a powerful case, Lawyer Su is not interested? Just consider it helping out.
In the future if Lawyer Su has anything that needs my help or Haifang Law Firm’s help feel free to raise it! I absolutely will not have any second words!

Su Bai: This sentence is exactly what I was waiting for!

Criminal plus administrative litigation!

This is equivalent to expanding their law firm’s business!

Such a powerful case definitely must be taken!

More importantly, he also gained Xiao Haibo’s friendship!

Su Bai immediately expressed: Alright, mutual assistance, recently I also have not been too busy, this case can be accepted, no problem.

After hearing Su Bai agree, Xiao Haibo let out a long sigh of relief.

Then regarding this matter thank you Lawyer Su, if there is anything in the future you can call me.

Lawyer Xiao is too polite.

After ending the chat.

Xiao Haibo then sent the more detailed content of this case to Su Bai.

After Su Bai read the case, he slightly frowned, this case indeed had a certain degree of difficulty.

He let out a long breath, although there was difficulty there was difficulty, but fighting the lawsuit had no problem, it could be accepted.

After carefully reading the case in detail, Su Bai replied to Xiao Haibo’s message.

This case, our law firm has accepted it.
When can we meet the client and have a proper discussion in person.?

This afternoon, I previously already told the client that today I would let him come over, regardless of whether this case is accepted or not today I will give him a notification.
Lawyer Su, are you free this afternoon?

Yes.

Then alright, see you this afternoon.

After confirming the time, Su Bai immediately notified Li Xuezhen to make good preparations.

“Haifang Law Firm recommended a case to us.”

“When the time comes this afternoon, you come with me.”

During these past few days, Li Xuezhen had been distressed because there had been no cases, and upon hearing that Haifang Law Firm introduced a case to them, Li Xuezhen’s eyes lit up.

“Lawyer Su”

“What kind of case did they introduce to our law firm this time, criminal or civil…?”

“It can be considered criminal and administrative… this case is somewhat complex, and further understanding is still required before it can be determined.”

Administrative.

Li Xuezhen’s small face was stunned for several seconds.

Administrative litigation!!

Immediately afterward, a trace of joy and excitement appeared on Little Li’s face as she looked at the circles and markings of administrative litigation law and administrative law on her workstation.

This case is good!

After studying administrative law for so many days, it finally could be put to use!

Not bad!

Very satisfying!

Little Li’s face was full of smiles, and she replied seriously with her small face: “Alright Lawyer Su, I will make good preparations!”

Afternoon.

With the sun shining high, Su Bai brought Li Xuezhen and took a taxi to Haifang Law Firm.


Inside Haifang Law Firm.

Su Bai and Li Xuezhen sat opposite Xiao Haibo.

Xiao Haibo poured a cup of tea for Su Bai and Li Xuezhen respectively and said with a smile:

“Lawyer Su, the client for this case is on the way and will arrive very soon, please wait a moment first.”

After Su Bai took a sip of tea, he put down the teacup: “Alright.”

Immediately afterward the topic changed: “Lawyer Xiao, how much did you buy this tea for per 500 grams (≈1.1 lb)…?”

Xiao Haibo said with a smile: “It was not bought, it was given by someone else. If Lawyer Su thinks this tea is good, I can give Lawyer Su 1,000 grams (≈2.2 lb).”

Su Bai smiled and shook his head.

He only sighed inwardly that this law firm, wherever one looked there was scenery, and even this tea was given as a gift!

Compared with his own law firm, there was still a certain gap!

Then would he not have to work twice as hard?

However Su Bai did not think too much about it.

Very soon, the client of this case arrived at Haifang Law Firm.

Inside the office.

Xiao Haibo warmly introduced Su Bai and the client to each other.

“Lawyer Su, this is the client of the case that I mentioned to you, Zhang Laichun.”

“Mr. Zhang, this is the top first class lawyer I introduced to you, Lawyer Su Bai, Lawyer Su, although the cases Lawyer Su has handled so far are not many, every case has been extremely classic!”

“For your case, finding Lawyer Su is definitely correct!”

“Alright, thank you Lawyer Xiao.”

Zhang Laichun’s face was full of restraint, after thanking Xiao Haibo, he subconsciously carefully wiped the sweat from his palms with his trousers, revealed a restrained smile, and nervously extended his hand.

“Hello Lawyer Su.”

“Hello.”

Su Bai slightly smiled, extended his hand and shook hands with Zhang Laichun, after greeting each other they sat back on the sofa again.

Immediately afterward.

Zhang Laichun began to state the process of the case, the case involved multiple aspects, and the general meaning was.

Repairing a bridge.

Being detained.

Being sentenced for picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and being subjected to a huge fine.
