Ye Cheng frowned as he looked at the young intern lawyer in front of him, seemingly surprised by the other person's reaction. But soon, he understood; after all, they graduated from the same school, and he knew that meant adhering to the rules.
"One billion is not just for medical expenses; it also includes the subsequent recovery period! More importantly, as a martial artist, if Peak requires reconstructive surgery, even if he recovers well, it will still affect his abilities. There’s even a possibility that he may never be able to practice those martial arts again!" Ye Cheng did not look at Tang Shenshen but focused on Ye Yu, speaking each word deliberately.
Upon hearing these words, Ye Yu felt a deep sense of guilt within him. Ever since he was severely injured by that assassin, his strength had been unable to recover. During those countless days of hopeless recovery, his hatred for that assassin was something even the five major districts of the Federation could not contain.
"Fine, I agree to the compensation!" Ye Yu interrupted Tang Shenshen's intention to continue. Although he was somewhat angered by Peak's actions, he felt that the punishment at this moment was already sufficient.
"No! We must follow the rules; this compensation is unreasonable. Even if you agree, it sets a bad precedent for similar cases in the future!" Tang Shenshen clutched her briefcase tightly, her expression urgent. "You have to understand that not everyone is as wealthy as you!"
At that moment, in Tang Shenshen's eyes, Ye Yu was nothing more than a complete wastrel. A billion Federation coins—how could one simply agree to such compensation? She knew that as a lawyer, her income was also quite high, but if she did not engage in property division lawsuits, she would never earn ten billion in her lifetime. Yet here was Ye Yu, agreeing without batting an eye.
Tang Shenshen naturally did not believe that this money belonged to Ye Yu; to her, he seemed like a parasitic waste!
"Attorney Ye, is it so wrong for me to agree to compensation?" Ye Yu looked at Tang Shenshen's attitude and suddenly felt exhausted. If money could solve this problem, he did not want to continue entangled in it. After all, to some extent, if it weren't for Peak's provocation, he would not have recovered so quickly to the first level of body technique; he wouldn't even have attempted to split his Psychic Power into multiple streams so soon.
"Following the rules is fine if you agree to compensation. However, law is based on reason; your situation may not pass an investigation if I apply for one. After all, if you can transfer assets freely, who knows if it's money laundering!" Tang Shenshen responded quickly. Young people often had a stubborn spirit, even when facing their own clients.
"Miss, do you really want to leave a lifelong regret for a student with no hope?" Ye Cheng did not expect that the trouble would come from this seemingly inconspicuous intern lawyer.
Under the radiance of the Federation's laws, everyone is equal. Even though he was a successful barrister, if the other party insisted on being difficult, it would be hard to resolve things easily.
"I'm not trying to make things difficult for anyone; this is just how it is. I believe no one can break this rule; otherwise, everything will fall into chaos." Tang Shenshen wasn't completely naive; she could see that her senior was angry. Nevertheless, she continued: "I think anyone who enters our school knows that students from our academy are all about following the rules!"
"Ye Yu, you don't need to be afraid. Although Peak is President Gao's grandson, as long as you haven't done anything wrong or don't need to pay such a large amount, no one would dare to ask you for that much. You really don't need to worry!" Tang Shenshen realized that the young man on the hospital bed was even younger than herself. Perhaps he had just been scared, which was why he was talking nonsense.
Ye Yu suddenly found this girl, who was a few years older than him, somewhat cute—innocently cute. However, he shook his head and said, "I can afford this compensation; it's my way of showing goodwill..."
"Ye Yu, I'm afraid you'll also need to write a statement apologizing to my client!" Ye Cheng interrupted Ye Yu's words. He had come not only for the compensation; for the Gao family, face was the most important thing.
"What apology?" Ye Yu frowned, sensing something was off.
"Naturally, it's for instigating the match that led to Peak's injury!" Ye Cheng thought that if the other party was willing to pay ten billion, they wouldn't care about this apology letter. People in the Federation tended to forget about controversies quickly; within a few months, everyone would have forgotten about this incident.
"Then I can't accept it!" Ye Yu frowned even more. It wasn't his fault in the first place; the compensation was out of guilt, but he absolutely refused to apologize.
"Why not?" Ye Cheng squinted at Ye Yu, realizing he couldn't quite see through this young man.
"We have to follow the rules. If it wasn't my fault, why should I apologize?"
Ye Yu leaned against the headboard. Apologizing seemed like a simple matter, but it was undoubtedly a very difficult one.
Tang Shenshen naturally didn't believe that this money belonged to Ye Yu, so at this moment, she saw him as nothing more than a parasitic waste!
"Attorney Ye, is it okay if I agree to the compensation?" Ye Yu looked at Tang Shenshen's attitude and suddenly felt a bit tired. If money could solve this problem, he didn't want to keep entangled in it. After all, in some ways, if it weren't for Peak's provocation, he definitely wouldn't have recovered to the first level of physical skills so quickly; he wouldn't even have attempted to divide his Psychic Power into multiple streams so early.
"We'll do it by the rules. If you agree to compensate, that's fine. But law is based on reason; your situation might not pass if I apply for an investigation. After all, if you can transfer assets at will, who knows if you're laundering money!" Tang Shenshen reacted quickly. Young people always had a stubborn spirit, even when facing their own attorney.
"Miss, do you really want to leave a lifelong regret for a hopeless student?" Ye Cheng never expected that the trouble would come from this seemingly inconspicuous intern lawyer.
Under the illumination of Federal Radiance, everyone is naturally equal. Even if one is a successful barrister, it can be quite difficult to handle matters easily if the other party insists on their point.
"I'm not trying to make things difficult for anyone, but this is the rule. I believe no one can break this rule; otherwise, everything will fall into chaos." Tang Shenshen wasn't completely naive; she could tell that her senior was angry, yet she continued, "I think you knew from the moment you entered school that students from our college are all about following the rules!"
"Ye Yu, you don't need to be afraid. Although Peak is President Gao's grandson, as long as you're not in the wrong or don't need to pay such a large sum, no one would dare to ask you for that much. You have nothing to fear!" Tang Shenshen realized that the young man on the hospital bed was perhaps more frightened than she was, which might explain his earlier nonsensical remarks.
Ye Yu suddenly found this girl, who was a few years older than him, somewhat endearing—innocently charming. However, he shook his head and said, "I can afford this amount; it's my way of showing my sincerity..."
