The afternoon sun was bright and full of warmth. The golden rays of light danced in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking very playful and lively.

Su Yanxi sipped her coffee elegantly as she leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window quietly. Her expression was calm and indifferent, making it difficult to guess what she was thinking.

Knock, knock, knock.

There was a knock on the glass door of the office. Yi Yao stuck his head in and said, “Ms. Su, the hospital called to say that the patient’s family is willing to reconcile. They’ve agreed to reconcile at 2:30 pm.”

Upon hearing that, Su Yanxi turned around and walked to the desk. She put down the coffee cup in her hand and raised her wrist to look at the time. She said calmly, “Prepare the documents. We’ll leave in five minutes.”

“Alright.”

It was almost 2:30 pm when they arrived at the hospital from the law firm. Since the hospital had arranged for someone to lead the way for them, they took the elevator straight to the reception room.

The moment she opened the door, everyone turned to look at her. Su Yanxi was calm and composed as she scanned them one by one. She paused for two seconds before she retracted her gaze and nodded politely, “Sorry for making you wait. The mediation can begin now.”

After more than an hour of negotiation, the patient’s family members stood up and grabbed the hospital director and Su Yanxi’s clothes, almost starting to fight again because both parties did not agree on the compensation.

Staring at the extremely irritable middle-aged man in front of her, Su Yanxi was unusually calm. She glanced at the opposing lawyer from the corner of her eye, “I think Mr. Yang should know what the punishment of beating up a lawyer is! I can let bygones be bygones for the slap last time.” With that said, the corners of her lips curled up into a meaningful smile, “In addition, if you beat up someone from the hospital, even if you go to court, I don’t know if the compensation you want will change.”

The opposing lawyer was also an experienced lawyer, so he naturally knew the pros and cons. He stood up and pulled the two men who were about to hit them, shaking his head at them. Then, he looked at Su Yanxi. “Ms. Su, you’re very famous in the legal arena. Your hospital is indeed at fault in this matter. The number that Deputy Director Chen mentioned just now is really hard to accept. You can’t blame my client for being angry.”

Su Yanxi straightened her clothes and glanced at Deputy Director Chen, who was feeling rather guilty. She pursed her lips, “Then, tell me the amount that you want.”

“We won’t back down if you don’t give us more than that.” One of the men who had just gotten angry reached his hand out to them.

“What? 500,000 dollars? You’re asking too much!” Seeing the number displayed by the man, Deputy Director Chen stood up in shock.

“500,000 for one life, do you think that’s a lot?” Seeing Deputy Director Chen’s attitude, the middle-aged man became even angrier.

“Ms. Su, this…” Deputy Director Chen looked at Su Yanxi anxiously as he was unable to accept this number.

Su Yanxi looked at Barrister Yang and asked with a smile, “Mr. Yang is also an elite in the legal world. Do you think this number is reasonable too? If that’s the case, I think there’s no point in reconciling today. There’s no need to continue. We will also be prepared to answer the lawsuit in court. We will be ready for you at any time. What do you think, Deputy Director Chen?”

Upon hearing Su Yanxi’s words, Deputy Director Chen felt relieved and emboldened. He stood up and nodded, “Since you don’t have any sincerity in reconciling, let’s do it that way then! Our hospital isn’t afraid of a lawsuit.” Then, he looked at Su Yanxi, “Ms. Su, thank you for your hard work. Let’s go! This way, please.”
