I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 611 I'm a lawyer, not a private investigator!

"Ok?"

“Because of Xia He’s situation, I recently searched online for relevant U.S. traffic accident laws and even went to our alma mater library to look them up,” Smith said. “U.S. law does have the 'Mlatan rule' and 'uncontrollable' rule that Smith mentioned, but the criteria for determining liability are extremely strict. According to relevant data, the pass rate is only 5%. Therefore, the situation he described is a low-probability event, almost impossible.”

So this is ah
Fang Qingye fell into deep thought.

When Bai Ou heard that Fang Qingye was silent, she assumed he was regretting it and comforted him, "Since you've already invited him, just accept it. Maybe it will really come in handy."

"I think so too."

"Alright then, Yezi, go back and send me a picture of Qingqing so I can see if she's cute. Make sure Xiahe isn't in it!"

I'm so angry...

Fang Qingye quickly agreed.

After finishing her voice call with Bai Ou, Fang Qingye fell into deep thought again. After a while, she took out another phone and called Smith directly.

On the phone, Fang Qingye spoke very unfriendly, scolding Smith and saying that he deliberately concealed some important issues in order to achieve his goal of representing the client and getting legal fees.

"Mr. Smith, my wife holds a Master of Laws degree from East China University of Political Science and Law and has her own law firm in Shanghai. Please make sure you tell me everything completely and truthfully in the future! Otherwise, I will file a complaint with your law firm!"

"Mr. Fang, I'm so sorry, it was an oversight. I will never make such a mistake again." Smith apologized hurriedly on the other end of the phone.

Then I met a colleague.
As long as you don't complain, it's fine.

"Smith, I have a request."

"please say."

"The perpetrator, Christopher, is listed as the chairman and general manager of a company. Investigate what this company does, whether it's publicly listed, its address, and details about Christopher and his family—the more detailed the better!"

On the other end of the phone, Smith hesitated for a moment: "Mr. Fang, your request exceeds the scope of the contract. I am a lawyer, not a private investigator!"

"Can't do it? Then I'll have to file a complaint first."

"No, no, Mr. Fang, I'll do my best, I'll do my best." Smith quickly agreed, looking dejected.

I originally wanted to earn some legal fees, but I ended up taking on a hot potato.

But Fang Qingye's next sentence made him overjoyed.

“Mr. Smith, if the investigation is accurate and thorough, I will reward you handsomely. In addition to the normal legal fees, I can also give you a private investigation fee.”

"OK, no problem! I'll do my best!"

"That's settled then. Contact me if you get any updates." Fang Qingye then hung up the phone.

He looked out at the bustling traffic and thought that if the law really couldn't resolve the issue fairly, then he would have to find another way.

Fang Qing's life in New York also settled down.

Every day, she takes care of her daughter and Xiahe. In the morning, she carries her daughter and pushes Xiahe's wheelchair for a walk in the neighborhood or a nearby park. At noon, she rests at home, assists Xiahe with rehabilitation training, and practices walking with crutches. Then she takes her daughter to a nearby playground. After dinner, she basically stays at home watching TV and surfing the internet.

Of course, he also accompanied Xia He to visit her Lotus Financial Consulting Company. After returning from the hospital, Xia He worked remotely from home to handle company affairs.

It's on the fourth floor of an office building, not very big, only about 50 square meters in total, and it employs a total of 9 people.

Her assistant, a young woman with fiery red lips named Hannah, is currently in charge. She graduated from Queen's College, City University of New York with a degree in finance and previously worked at a financial company before being recruited by Xia He.

She had initially assumed her boss, with a broken leg, would be in poor condition, but found that although he was using crutches, he looked remarkably well, not at all like someone recovering from a serious illness. He truly resembled a lotus flower nourished by rain.

When she saw the young and handsome Asian man following behind her, she immediately realized that the man her boss had been longing for had come all the way from China to see her!

The power of love is truly great.

A week later, Fang Qingye went to the New York City Department of Motor Vehicles to get her temporary driver's license, finally able to drive, which was much more convenient. Jiang Feng from the Bangcheng office also called, saying he had his eye on a villa and wanted Fang Qingye to come and check it out.

Jiang Feng was contacted through a New York-based real estate agency called COLDWELL BANKER.

The villa is located in Bayside, a neighborhood in eastern Queens, New York, bordering Lake Success on Long Island to the east. Fang Qingye had arranged to meet with the real estate agent, and Jiang Feng accompanied her.

What he didn't expect was that Fang Qingye was also with a Chinese woman!
She was very beautiful in her thirties, but it seemed she had a problem with her left leg and was using crutches.

It turns out that Fang Qingye bought it for this woman named Xia He!
Although the relationship between the two was not explicitly stated, Jiang Feng had long realized that they were definitely not just ordinary friends.

However, he didn't ask any further questions.

Qiao Yongfeng had already instructed him over the phone to do his best to handle Fang Qingye's matter and not to ask questions he shouldn't.

Fang Fang Qingye also intentionally introduced Jiang Feng to Xia He, as she couldn't stay in New York for long. If Xia He had any urgent matters, she could ask Jiang Feng for help.

As for your own company's branch offices, it's best to avoid getting involved in personal matters.

A traditional English villa with a gray-black roof and white walls, it looks very nice. The house is not particularly large, but the front garden is quite spacious.

The area was separated from the outside world by a white fence, and the two followed Andy inside, walking and looking around.

"Mr. Fang, Ms. Xia, the apartment has an internal area of ​​3,652 square feet and a total of 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, including 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms downstairs. Please come in," the real estate agent said as they walked in.

Upon opening the living room door, one sees light-colored hardwood floors and a full set of furniture, including a sofa. What interests Fang Qingye is the wooden fireplace in the living room.

Hmm, this is good.

Next, I looked at the kitchen, bedroom, and balcony, as well as the basement storage room and two garages next to it.

"Mr. Fang, Ms. Xia, as you can see, there is a lawn in front of the courtyard where you can enjoy a comfortable afternoon, and a garden behind the house."

Standing on the balcony, Andy began to introduce the place again.

"Jack Fischer Park is a 15-minute walk from my home," Andy pointed southeast. "It's a lush, beautiful place where you can exercise, take a leisurely stroll, and breathe in some fresh air to lift your spirits."

The community boasts Walton Art Glass, CVS, Safeway supermarket, restaurants, banks, and more, making life extremely convenient.

"More importantly, the villa is located in an excellent school district. When you have children, they can enjoy access to Forest Hill Elementary School (a 10/10 elementary school, only 0.6 miles from your home); Rolling Hills Middle School (a 10/10 middle school); and Westmont High School (a 9/10 high school, only 0.3 miles from your home."

Fang Qingye didn't care, but Xia He listened very attentively.

The villa was originally valued at $458 million, but after some haggling, it was sold for $440 million. Of course, various taxes and fees still need to be paid, bringing the total to nearly $470 million.

In the United States, there is no housing authority like in China; property transfer procedures are usually handled through a title company.

Fang Qingye asked Xia He's name to be put on the property deed.

Now that the house was settled, Fang Qingye immediately hired a moving company to move her belongings from the old apartment. Now it was all move-in ready; there was no need to bring furniture or anything else, just personal clothing and bedding.

There were also a few potted plants, especially the orchid. Xia He treated it like a treasure, afraid that the movers would break it.

"This is what Tian Qian brought from China," Xia He explained.

"Alright, alright, I'll ship them to you from the nursery next time. I'll give you as many as you want!" Fang Qingye said helplessly.

Moving house, Fang Qingye needed to hire another maid. This time, she went to a housekeeping company and found a younger Filipino maid named Sharna Magdayao.

Originally, Hu Quanjing mainly helped take care of Xia Heqing, and the maid did housework.

After settling into his new home, Fang Qingye received a call from Smith that afternoon: "Mr. Fang, I have found out who the perpetrator is, Christopher."
