I am terminally ill, but I am healing the world with my songs

“Hello, you must be Mr. Zhang Pengsheng?” Gao Chongting said, extending his right hand with a smile.

Zhang Pengsheng sized up the well-dressed and refined young man in front of him, assuming he was there to discuss business with his factory.

“Yes, and you are…?” he asked, shaking Gao Chongting’s hand.

“I am Gao Chongting, Wen He’s lawyer. He has filed a lawsuit against you. This is a lawyer’s letter; please accept it.”

As he spoke, Gao Chongting handed over a pre-prepared lawyer’s letter.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Pengsheng was immediately startled and took the letter, examining it carefully.

After reading it, he immediately thought of a way to respond.

As long as he denied everything, these claims couldn’t possibly stand.

“This is ridiculous! I, Zhang Pengsheng, have always been honest and fair, never mistreating him in the slightest. Forced overtime, unpaid overtime – it’s all nonsense!”

He retorted loudly, refusing to admit that he had exploited his employees.

“Then do you have attendance records here? Do you or don’t you? Just check them and you’ll know,” Gao Chongting said.

“Well… although we don’t have those, that doesn’t prove I exploited him. Our factory has regular working hours.”

“Then such a large factory must have surveillance cameras, right?”

“We do, but they’ve been broken recently and haven’t been repaired yet.”

Zhang Pengsheng planned to play the rogue to the end, not giving Gao Chongting any chance to find evidence.

However…

Hearing this, Gao Chongting’s lips curled into a slight smile.

“So you’re saying that your factory’s surveillance cameras have all been malfunctioning recently, and there are no attendance records either?” he asked again for confirmation.

“Yes, you can’t just accuse me of exploiting employees without any proof just because I don’t have these things, can you?”

Having obtained the other party’s complete confirmation, Gao Chongting directly began to exert pressure.

“My client told me that you make him come to the factory at 6:00 AM every day and work until 11:00 PM before he can leave.”

“Moreover, he has never had a day off on Saturdays or Sundays, and he was hospitalized yesterday due to overwork.”

“If you can’t prove that what my client said is false, then please provide evidence.”

“You should know that labor law was created to protect working people, not to be used by you capitalists to exploit employees.”

“Your situation of not having attendance records and the surveillance cameras conveniently breaking down will not be a valid excuse for you to escape punishment.”

Hearing Gao Chongting’s words, Zhang Pengsheng was stunned, completely dumbfounded.

“Wait a minute? Are you saying that he was hospitalized yesterday because he overworked here?” he asked, puzzled.

“That’s right.”

“That’s complete nonsense! He’s been absent from work for several days! He hasn’t been to work at all during this time! How could he have been overworked here!”

“Please provide evidence that he hasn’t been working here for the past few days,” Gao Chongting said.

Hearing this…

Zhang Pengsheng was stunned. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but it seemed like anything he said would be wrong.

Cold sweat streamed down his face as he realized…

He had been tricked from the very beginning!

Gao Chongting knew that he would say there were no attendance records and that the surveillance cameras were broken in order to evade responsibility.

This was supposed to be Zhang Pengsheng’s means of escape, but now it had been used by Gao Chongting to turn the tables on him.

He admitted that he had exploited Wen He, but he definitely didn’t make Wen He come to work at 6:00 AM, nor did he make him leave at 11:00 PM.

These were all Gao Chongting’s one-sided claims.

But the key is…

He couldn’t refute these one-sided claims.

Because all the points of rebuttal had been blocked by himself.

If he hadn’t thought about escaping responsibility from the beginning, he could have produced surveillance footage to prove that Wen He hadn’t been to work for the past few days.

Being absent from work for several days without reason would have been enough for him to fire Wen He!

But the problem now is…

He had personally blocked that path!

“Mr. Zhang Pengsheng, would you like to settle this privately?”

Seeing Zhang Pengsheng’s face as ugly as if he had eaten shit, Gao Chongting knew it was time to discuss terms.

“Name your price, and I’ll consider it,” he said.

“Twenty thousand.”

“Twenty thousand!? Why don’t you just rob me! I admit I made him work a lot of overtime, but even if he worked overtime every day, there’s absolutely no way it would amount to twenty thousand! His salary is only a little over two thousand; you can’t just name a price like that.”

Zhang Pengsheng couldn’t hold back any longer.

Wen He had only worked for him for a month, or even less.

Twenty thousand yuan was enough to pay the salaries of five people.

No matter how hard Wen He worked, the value he created wasn’t as high as that of five people.

After all, it was just assembly line work.

“Mr. Zhang Pengsheng, before I came to your office, I took a few laps around your factory and found that there were no fire exits and no fire-fighting equipment. What if I were to…”

“Give it, give it, give it! Twenty thousand it is! Give me the QR code, I’ll scan it.”

Upon hearing Gao Chongting mention fire safety, Zhang Pengsheng reacted like a cat with its fur standing on end, immediately panicking.

If the fire department were to investigate, their entire factory would be shut down, and even the entire factory would undergo major rectification.

The losses involved here couldn’t be measured by a mere twenty thousand.

【Alipay received, twenty thousand yuan.】

“Thank you for your understanding. Goodbye,” Gao Chongting said with a light smile.

“Leave quickly.”

Zhang Pengsheng was furious, his face turning green with anger.

He had never suffered such a silent loss.

Wen He was also the most expensive employee he had ever hired.

Twenty thousand yuan for one month.

Too ruthless.

Although this twenty thousand was insignificant to him, he still felt a pang of pain.

When he called Wen He’s mother a few days ago, he learned that Wen He had broken up with them and even argued to the point of going to court.

He once thought it was just a joke.

After all, how could such a cowardly person like Wen He suddenly become so tough as to sue his parents.

But he never expected that Wen He would sanction him today.

After receiving the compensation of twenty thousand yuan, Gao Chongting left the place.

However, after walking out for a short distance, he took out his mobile phone and dialed 12345.

“Hello, this is the citizen complaint center hotline. How can I help you?” a voice came from the other end of the phone.

“I want to complain about a factory with unqualified fire-fighting facilities.”

“Okay, can you provide the specific location of the factory?”

“Beizhou District, Anyun Road 158.”

“Okay, we have recorded it for you. We will send someone to verify the situation, and we will call you back later.”

“Thank you.”

“Thank you for calling. Please rate this service…”

After completing the report, Gao Chongting felt very happy.

These capitalists who don’t treat people’s lives as lives should be taught a harsh lesson!

Just as he was feeling happy about this…

He suddenly received a message on WeChat.

This made Gao Chongting’s smile instantly freeze on his face.

Looking at the extremely short message, his mood instantly plummeted to the abyss.
