"Yeah, didn't they come looking for you?"
"No."
"Oh, then they'll probably come soon. They've already come to us three, so it'll be your turn soon. Aside from the girl who died, your brother was the most seriously injured out of the three of us, so they'll probably compensate you more than us." As she spoke, Huo Mien saw the envy in the middle-aged woman's eyes.
"I've already done my research on this malicious car accident. Apparently, the perpetrator was drunk and was even speeding on campus, which prohibits speeding. This is a terrible behavior, and it's not something that can be solved with compensation and an apology. It's already a criminal offense. After I gather the evidence in a few days, I'll sue them. I don't want any compensation, I just want a fair result." With that, Huo Mien turned around and left.
"This girl must be an idiot," the middle-aged woman muttered to herself behind Huo Mian.
Was Huo Mien really an idiot? Of course not, she just didn't want to use her brother's health in exchange for some so-called compensation.
What she wanted was to bring the malicious perpetrator to justice...
To cause a drunken car accident on campus and cause a chain accident that resulted in one death and three injuries, not only did he not take responsibility for his actions, he even ran away. This kind of person was truly immoral.
Apparently, the girl who died was the girl who sat in the passenger seat beside him. Apparently, they were even dating.
Now that his girlfriend had died in the hospital, not only did that brat not show up, but his lawyer had been talking to the family members in private.
Huo Mien already had an idea in her mind. Luckily, Zhixin was fine. Otherwise, if there were any sequelae, she would rather give up everything and fight it out with those people.
As expected, just as Huo Mien was about to get off work, she received a call from the perpetrator's lawyer, asking for a private talk.
After Huo Mien agreed, she went straight to the coffee shop they had agreed to meet at. It was near the hospital.
The other party was a lawyer in his forties. He wore glasses, had a square face, and was wearing a black suit with a black briefcase in hand.
"You're Miss Huo Mien, right?"
Huo Mien nodded...
"Hello, I'm Luo Qing, the lawyer representing the client, Lu Yigang. I'm here today for a simple reason. The Lu Family wants to settle this privately. They don't want to make a big deal out of it, nor do they want to go through legal procedures. I heard that Miss Huo's brother is seriously injured and is receiving treatment. I think it will cost a lot of money. I suggest that you give me a reasonable amount, and I'll ask the client to compensate you.
"Do you think they can satisfy me with just a random number?" Huo Mian sneered.
"Of course not. As long as it's within reason, we can accept it," said Mr. Luo confidently.
"What do you mean within reason? Mr. Song, please explain, I don't really understand. "Huo Mien smiled.
Mr. Luo immediately took out a thick stack of documents from his briefcase and said to Huo Mian, "Miss Huo, we have some understanding of your family's situation. Your family's situation isn't very good, so I'm sure you'll need this money. Of course, we won't give you too little. After all, in addition to the cost of the treatment, we'll also pay you some compensation for psychological damage. I heard that the surgery costs around 300,000 yuan, and the follow-up treatment costs 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. On top of that, we'll add another 300,000 yuan. My client wants to pay 700,000 yuan. What do you think, Miss Huo?"
"Seven hundred thousand yuan, mhm, that's a lot of money," Huo Mien slowly said.
