Even after the other party had ruthlessly turned on him, Wan Fei clung to them like a persistent plaster. Indeed, as long as he didn't divorce, Yan Yeyun and the others couldn't do much about him!

From his prime seat in the spectator gallery, Qin Mu was also watching the spectacle unfold, equally taken aback. This sudden turn of events was also beyond his expectations. Meanwhile, Zhou Quanmin and the other adjudicators were also standing by, watching the scene play out, their faces ashen. It seemed they were reminded of some unpleasant matters. But the judgment had been rendered and could not be overturned.

"Let's go. Time to head back to the institute," Qin Mu said, shaking his head and urging Zhang Qingyuan and the others.

The case had reached a point where things had basically settled. Under Zhang Wei's guidance, this case didn't involve criminal liability; it was purely a civil dispute. The judgment only required the return of 980,000 yuan, with 100,000 yuan considered the betrothal gift. According to local customs for betrothal gifts, 100,000 yuan was actually within the normal range.

Regrettably, this scene had unfolded too late. If they had caused this uproar during the trial, he believed the court would have definitely ordered a full refund.

At the same time, he had once again witnessed Wan Feizhang's incredible ability to grovel; the other party's disdain was so obvious, yet Wan Feizhang still refused to give up.

As long as he refused to divorce, they really couldn't do anything to him.

Divorce is categorized into consensual divorce and contested divorce. A consensual divorce means both parties willingly agree to separate. A contested divorce, on the other hand, occurs when one party seeks a divorce, and the other party disagrees. However, in a contested divorce, the initial court ruling usually does not grant the divorce. One must wait for a six-month litigation period to expire before pursuing the divorce lawsuit further. If there are no legitimate grounds demonstrating an irretrievable breakdown of the marital relationship, the court will similarly not grant a divorce.

A divorce had never been granted unilaterally simply because one party lacked money... Such a judgment would clearly mislead and harm societal values.

「The next day.」

In the nursing home, the dust had settled on the betrothal gift case, and it became the topic of conversation among the elders during their leisure time. The elders who had attended the hearing were all animatedly recounting their experiences.

"Vice Director, you were looking for me?" Qin Mu asked, walking into Wan Zhongyuan's office, slightly surprised.

"Come, have a seat." Wan Zhongyuan greeted him with a kind smile and quickly poured Qin Mu a cup of tea, his demeanor very warm.

After this incident, Wan Zhongyuan had started watching legal programs at home in his free time. As for his rebellious son, he had cut off all financial support, leaving him to fend for himself. He had also decided to no longer interfere in the conflict between Wan Feizhang and Wen Le's family. Overall, although he had lost 100,000 yuan, he could still accept it.

"Here's the thing," Wan Zhongyuan began, looking at Qin Mu and getting straight to the point. "Our institute's legal consultant has been on leave for a while, and I think... with your level of expertise, you are completely qualified for the job. Are you interested in a transfer?"

"Transfer?" Qin Mu echoed, momentarily stunned.

"Yes," Wan Zhongyuan said seriously, taking a deep breath. "After this incident, I feel more than ever that a legal consultant is essential. The nursing home simply cannot afford to be without one!"

This betrothal gift incident... If they hadn't found the correct litigation strategy, they might not have won the lawsuit. And he had once again realized just how incredibly useful it is for someone to be proficient in law!

"AHEM, actually..." Qin Mu cleared his throat, declining the offer. "I don't have a law license yet. Besides, this position belongs to Wang Dachui. We're on good terms, and it seems he's about to resolve his relationship issues soon..."

If Wang Dachui came back from leave and found out I'd taken over his prime spot for slacking off, it would be hard to explain. Besides, my current job is perfectly fine. There isn't much work, and I can still slack off every day. Our two positions are known as the two cushiest jobs in the nursing home.

Wan Zhongyuan nodded in understanding and didn't dare to insist.

After leaving the office, Qin Mu pulled out his phone and sent a message to Wang Dachui to check in on him.

"How's it going with getting back together with your ex-girlfriend?"

Half an hour later, Wang Dachui replied, "Don't even mention it! Things were going great, and I was on the verge of success. Then she suddenly threw ten problems at me, saying she'd only agree to reconcile if I solved them all correctly."

The message was accompanied by an emoji conveying utter despair.

"What kind of questions?" Qin Mu asked, intrigued.

Who knew getting back together these days involved a quiz?

A few minutes later, Wang Dachui sent him photos of the ten problems. He complained bitterly in his message, "These are the ten problems! She said I'm not allowed to search online, not allowed to ask anyone, and can only find the answers by looking through books. But where in any book would you find such outrageous questions?!"

Curious, Qin Mu opened the photos Wang Dachui had sent. They showed ten handwritten questions.

The first question: Person A wanted to kill her boyfriend. One day, she deliberately sabotaged the brake system of his car. If the boyfriend drove the car, he would encounter a steep slope 15 minutes later and inevitably plunge off a cliff to his death. However, five minutes after driving off, the boyfriend encountered a sudden flash flood and mudslide, which swept him down the mountain, killing him.

Question: Does Person A bear responsibility for her boyfriend's death?

The second question: Person A wanted to kill her boyfriend. She knocked him to the ground and choked him until he fell into a deep coma. Thirty minutes later, finding that her boyfriend was not dead, Person A took a knife and stabbed him. The first stab struck his lower abdomen. The second stab hit his belt. When she attempted a third stab, the knife handle broke.

Person A sighed heavily and said, "You're just too lucky! It seems I can't kill you. I give up." She then took her boyfriend to the hospital, and his life was saved. An investigation revealed that the first stab wound had already caused serious injury.
