What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Judge Liu was now truly breaking out in cold sweat.

Although he couldn't figure out what exactly Tang Fangjing meant by "his own method," and he had no idea how "things might get a little ugly," he understood one thing:

If Tang Fangjing were really pushed to his limit, no matter what the final outcome would be, he was absolutely guaranteed to suffer disastrous consequences himself.

So, after saying that sentence, he hurried out to make a phone call.

No matter what your leadership decides, this case must be executed!

On the other side, Tang Fangjing quietly observed, having long considered solving the execution problem. But the issues involved were just too many.

The draft of the "Civil Enforcement Law" was submitted in 2022, but its review process was terminated two years later, mainly due to fierce debate surrounding the concept of "separation of adjudication and enforcement."

Should enforcement be separated from trials? If separated, who should oversee it? How would mandatory execution powers be guaranteed? These are all highly practical dilemmas.

A judgment without enforcement is nothing more than waste paper, utterly meaningless to the litigants.

From Tang Fangjing's perspective, he genuinely hoped for significant advancements in legislation governing civil enforcement.

After waiting for quite a while, Judge Liu reentered the room, wearing a smile as he said:

"Lawyer Tang, I spoke with our leadership just now. We will absolutely work hard to coordinate your case. By next week at the latest, we guarantee the execution will be completed."

Tang Fangjing frowned again. He actually wanted to lash out with a few more words but managed to hold back.

"Judge Liu, I will trust you all one more time. I expect a result by this weekend. If there's still no news, then there's no point in any further communication between us."

With that, Tang Fangjing stood up and said, "Tang Fangjing is not someone with many virtues. But if there's one thing I pride myself on, it's that when I say something, I do it."

After saying his piece, Tang Fangjing turned and left the office, leaving Judge Liu behind, thoroughly exasperated under the immense pressure Tang had just exerted.

Would you dare make such threats to anyone else? Well, prepare for the consequences.

But Tang Fangjing truly was different, because there was no effective way to deal with him.

Outside the courthouse, Tang Fangjing didn't take a cab; he simply strolled leisurely along the street.

He didn't particularly enjoy behaving this way, but sometimes there was no other choice—only through such methods could progress be made.

So he resolved to keep waiting. However, he had indeed prepared himself mentally. Sometimes, life is all about taking risks.

Struggles are not always won with words alone!

The next day arrived, inside the General Manager's office at Hanxi Construction Group Company. Seated there was a middle-aged man who carried the air of someone accustomed to privilege.

This middle-aged man was the company's General Manager, Tan Lizhong.

In front of him stood a middle-aged woman, speaking as she said, "General Manager Tan, the Lanshan District Court has been calling us repeatedly, urging us to execute the judgment as soon as possible..."

"Execute? How? Their ruling has issues; how can we execute it? I've said it before, this involves trade secrets, yet they still insist on forcing the judgment. There's no way to act on it." Tan Lizhong answered bluntly.

The middle-aged woman, head of the company's legal affairs, hesitated before continuing, "But General Manager Tan... the court says Tang Fangjing has already approached them, demanding immediate execution. He also mentioned that if it's not executed, he's going to resort to his own methods."

The concern wasn't so much about the court's enforcement, but mainly about Tang Fangjing himself.

Tan Lizhong couldn't help but retort, "His own methods? Is he threatening me? What does he think he is—as a lawyer, trying to act almighty? What arrogance!"

Though his heart was uneasy, Tan Lizhong certainly couldn't outwardly show any fear.

After that remark, Tan Lizhong immediately followed up: "Manager Yan, you're a professional. Tell me, what methods could he possibly use?"

Manager Yan smiled bitterly and replied, "General Manager Tan, Tang Fangjing is the type who, if he really decides to act, has a high likelihood of resorting to non-legal means. You understand, don't you? That man is absolutely crazy!"

"Honestly, I can't even begin to guess what he would do..."

That's the truly frightening part—his lunacy was enough to make one fear he'd pull off something utterly shocking.

Tan Lizhong's temper flared a little, but he still responded:

"If even you can't figure out anything, then what are we afraid of? For now, just stick with what we're doing. Haven't we already filed an appeal? Let's say we're waiting for the appeal result."

"If the appeal fails, then I'll pay up."

Technically speaking, appeals don't affect enforcement, but... theory and reality need to align.

The court could use this as an excuse, claim that handing it over to Tang Fangjing now would make any future re-adjudication awkward.

So, that's the law—understand it well and use it wisely.

On the Lanhe District Court side, they received this reply and instructed Judge Liu to contact Tang Fangjing again.

Judge Liu was near his breaking point. He truly felt like killing someone; his hands were practically shaking.

Damn it, the leadership didn't care one bit about the pressure he was under. Tang Fangjing had already issued a final ultimatum, and yet here they were, pushing him to deal with this mess?

"Leaders, it's utterly impossible. You all know what kind of person Tang Fangjing is—he demands results, full execution. How am I supposed to explain anything to him?"

The leader in front of him replied sharply, "Xiao Liu, what kind of talk is that? Difficult jobs should just be abandoned?!"

"We're in enforcement, Xiao Liu. When was it ever all smooth sailing? Everyone has to communicate and negotiate."

"Isn't this just asking you to do your job? In the past, didn't we encounter tough customers in other cases? Did we always just give in to them?"
