My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot-Chapter 521: Termination of Contract

Where’s such good fortune to be found?

Absolutely can’t let others take advantage.

Hence, the suggestion Boss Qiu had made, pleased and gained the support of the three of them. fгeewebnovёl.com

Suddenly, the rift that had developed earlier vanished.

The three started to flatter Boss Qiu enthusiastically again.

Seeing the blatant change in the trio, Boss Qiu sneered inwardly.

Thought to himself that these three fools were truly meant to work for others.

Such a small benefit could appease them.

Boss Qiu mused and again secretly praised his own brilliance.

He had managed to win back the hearts of these three with just a little money.

This outcome pleased all four of them, so they raised their glasses again for a drink.

Before the glasses were set down, someone knocked on the door of the corrugated iron house again.

The person outside hadn’t even entered but was already shouting: "Brother Qiu, the lawyer’s here."

"Lawyer? What lawyer?" Brother Qiu stood up in surprise as he spoke and went to open the door, "What lawyer? Whose lawyer?"

"It’s a lawyer from Youshu Real Estate," said the worker outside, the same one who rushed to inform Boss Qiu when Lu Youxi came by last time, "There are quite a few people."

The three who were originally seated inside exchanged glances.

Then they stood up and came behind Boss Qiu, "Brother Qiu, has Lu Youxi brought a lawyer too? To renegotiate the contract?"

Boss Qiu furrowed his brow; he didn’t know what Lu Youxi was up to.

But he had a somewhat bad premonition.

However, he didn’t have much time to think as Lawyer Sheng had already personally arrived at the door with students and a group of security guards.

The entourage this time was even bigger than the one Lu Youxi brought last time.

If Lu Youxi were there, she would have admired Lawyer Sheng’s caution.

She didn’t need to remind Lawyer Sheng, who was already cautious enough.

"Who are you?" Boss Qiu asked Lawyer Sheng with a stern face when he saw him.

Lawyer Sheng took out his business card, his face showing a kind smile as he handed it over politely with both hands, "Hello, I’m a lawyer from Shenghe Law Firm, representing Youshu Real Estate."

"What are you here for?" Boss Qiu watched Lawyer Sheng warily.

Lawyer Sheng continued to speak with a smile: "The thing is, my client, Youshu Real Estate, proposes to terminate the contract with your construction team. I’m here today to deal with the termination issue with you."

"Terminate?" Boss Qiu was shocked, "What do you mean ’terminate’?"

"Shall we... go inside to talk?" Lawyer Sheng looked around, noticing many workers had gathered, "Of course, if you think it’s appropriate to talk here, we can do that."

"Come in," Boss Qiu said.

As Lawyer Sheng entered with the students, Boss Qiu sent his three underlings out first and then said to Lawyer Sheng: "My house is small; it can’t accommodate so many people."

Lawyer Sheng, still smiling, nodded and said to the security guards he brought, "You guys wait at the door."

Then he entered with the students.

The soundproofing in the corrugated house was not very good—it was almost non-existent.

The security guards at the door could hear everything from inside crystal clear.

In case things got physical, they could break in at any moment.

Lawyer Sheng was not worried about losing out at all.

He brought two students, which together outnumbered the people on Boss Qiu’s side.

Boss Qiu: "..."

Lawyers, such learned people, are cunning.

But Boss Qiu didn’t want his workers to hear about the termination.

But with three on the other side and only one on his own, it was clear he was at a disadvantage.

After pondering for a while, Boss Qiu had no choice but to let his three underlings stay.

Four against three, no matter how you looked at it, it wasn’t too bad a loss.

After entering, just before Boss Qiu closed the door, he didn’t forget to shout out to the workers, "Go back to whatever you’re doing! Don’t block the way here."

Then he shut the door.

But even though he said that, the workers didn’t leave after the door was closed.

The entrance was blocked by the security guards, and much of the surrounding area was occupied.

The workers found places not taken by the guards and listened with their ears against the corrugated iron walls.

The corrugated house didn’t soundproof well, and whether it was the door or walls, it was much the same.

Boss Qiu’s corrugated house was rather large, but now with seven people inside, it still felt overwhelmingly crowded.

Upon entering, a pungent smell of sorghum liquor wafted in the air.

The smell of sorghum liquor, to those who liked drinking it, was very enjoyable.

But for those not used to it, it could seem a bit pungent.

It was clear that Lawyer Sheng and his two companions were not fond of drinking sorghum liquor, pausing for a moment after entering.

But they did not show it and endured.

After a while, they got used to the smell indoors.

Boss Qiu sat down first, and Lawyer Sheng, with his two students, also took their seats.

Boss Qiu’s three underlings had no places to sit, so they could only stand to the side.

"Lu Youxi is terminating the contract, but he’ll have to pay me a hefty penalty!" declared Boss Qiu.

Lawyer Sheng replied with a calm smile: "Boss Qiu, the fact is, your construction team was the first to breach the contract."

"Firstly, you raised the prices despite the contract terms, and without my client’s consent, you unilaterally stopped work. It’s been three days now, and you’ve already caused a breach. Given your initial breach, my client has the right to terminate the contract," said Lawyer Sheng.

"I won’t talk to you; have Lu Youxi talk to me!" Boss Qiu said loudly.

"The client has authorized me to handle this matter in full," Lawyer Sheng said, "Of course, you can also engage a lawyer to discuss this with us."

"Today we are here to inform your side that we intend to terminate the contract," Lawyer Sheng said, "From today, within seven days, the notice of contract termination will be delivered here, and then the contract will automatically be terminated."

"You can’t scare me!" exclaimed Boss Qiu loudly, "Is it up to you to unilaterally terminate a contract?"

"As you were in breach first, and my client, as the party who adhered to the contract, is able to terminate it, and there’s no breach on our part," Lawyer Sheng spoke evenly, "Of course, you are welcome to consult a lawyer to see if this is the case. If you disagree, we can also proceed through legal channels."

"However, I do not recommend that you go through legal channels," said Lawyer Sheng, "Since you were in breach first, even if legal proceedings are initiated, the result will not change. You will also have to bear the cost of legal fees. If you lose, you will have to pay our legal fees as well."

"And my legal fees are relatively expensive in the industry," Lawyer Sheng continued, "Moreover, as you breached the contract first, and now that both parties negotiate and agree, we only need to terminate the contract, and my client will still pay the construction fees according to the contract."

"But if it goes to court, we will certainly claim you were in breach first. And if you are in breach, according to the contract, you must pay a penalty to our side," Lawyer Sheng calmly smiled, "So, if we really go through legal proceedings, the only loss will be yours."
