Too Bad I Take Things Seriously-Chapter 616 - 237: Pumpkin Patch, Old Man Stealing Pumpkins!

...

In a study within the Mountain and Water Garden District of Jin City, Qin Mu put down his mouse and stretched languorously. "Finally finished editing."

After work, he had eaten his meal and then started recording the video material for this installment.

This incident, strictly speaking, was a follow-up to the last one. Jiang Daping and his three companions had been sentenced to suspended prison terms but still showed no remorse, causing chaos at a wedding venue. They repeatedly claimed they were acting for Feng Cuihua’s good, yet their words were utterly devoid of any respect for Feng Cuihua. Such people... they should be sent where they belong. A mere suspended sentence was far too lenient for them! What awaited them now was a new trial and the reinstatement of their fixed-term prison sentences.

Of course, regarding their financial support obligations, they wouldn’t get out of paying a single cent. Even if they were imprisoned, the court could periodically transfer the support payments from their bank accounts to Feng Cuihua. The only regret was that the four of them wouldn’t be able to provide Feng Cuihua with emotional support. But he felt it made no difference whether Feng Cuihua had the companionship of her four sons or not. Seeing them less might even add a few more years to her life. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

After publishing the edited video on Little Station, he suddenly received a text message notification alerting him that a package had arrived at the community collection point. Eh? Is my practice license here? This package was indeed the lawyer’s practice certificate he had obtained by taking the bar exam some time ago. With this certificate, he could personally defend his acquaintances if they encountered legal issues in the future, making things much less troublesome.

However, he was currently just an intern lawyer. He couldn’t take on cases independently yet; he would need to complete his internship and become fully qualified after a year before handling cases on his own. In other words, he should probably find a law firm to affiliate with and gain some experience. Find a law firm? Qin Mu furrowed his brows, pondering. In Jin City, the only law firm he was somewhat familiar with seemed to be Zhang Wei’s.

「Meanwhile.」

In a high-end residential community in Zizhou, Qing Lan sat in her gaming chair. "Guys, did you see that? Seven people! I killed seven people!" she exclaimed, speaking excitedly to the camera while maneuvering the action on her computer screen. Her game display showed her "going on a rampage." This was the first time she had achieved such an "impressive" kill count in this rank.

The viewers in the live stream were equally astounded as barrages of comments flooded in.

"Holy shit! Sister Lan’s on a killing spree! Is the other side using bots?"

"My youth is over! It’s the first time I’ve seen the host with a positive kill-death ratio; it feels like I’m dreaming."

"Definitely not bots on the other side. Bots aren’t this bad. Last time I saw the host play against bots, she only got two kills!"

"It’s over, it’s over. Sister Lan was about to give up this game, but now the opponents have given her an unexpected boost of confidence."

"..."

Qing Lan glanced at the comments in the live stream while controlling her hero, a smug expression appearing on her face. All that hard practice wasn’t in vain. She had finally vindicated herself! Although, the highest rank among her opponents was only Silver V...

Five minutes later, to avoid any complications from dragging things out, she decisively crushed the opponent’s crystal, securing her first win of the day.

"How about that?" she said, looking at the comments. "I think I can totally dominate this division now!"

She felt a strong sense of vindication, as if she had improved immensely in just a few days.

Yet the comments showed no sign of softening, continuing to mock her as before.

"Sister Lan, you’re so good at gaming, have you won a world championship yet?"

"I just love streamers like you who could clearly get by on looks alone but insist on trying to rely on talent."

"I’m moved to tears. I’ve watched Sister Lan for four years. Other streamers from her time have moved on to singing and dancing, but Sister Lan is still here, stubbornly trying to climb the Silver rank."

"Sister Lan, if you really can’t rank up, just pay for a booster. It’s not shameful!"

"..."

The comments were sarcastic, overtly and subtly urging her to give up on the game, which once again infuriated Qing Lan.

"Forget it, I won’t stoop to your level," she said, taking a deep breath. Qing Lan abandoned the idea of arguing with the commenters and prepared to start another game to continue proving herself.

But then she suddenly noticed a notification from Little Station: a creator she followed had uploaded a video a minute ago. Qin Mu... uploaded another video? After clicking on it, she saw the latest installment. Instantly, any thought of continuing her game vanished. Turning to the camera, she said, "Alright, no more gaming for now. Let’s watch this video instead."

This video... It’s clearly a follow-up to the last one. In the previous video, Qin Mu had just helped an elderly person sue their four sons for abandonment. All four were sentenced to three years imprisonment, suspended, and were also required to fulfill their support obligations.

I can’t believe it... It’s only been three days, and there’s already a follow-up!

"They already got suspended sentences. Surely... they didn’t get sent straight to jail this time, right?" she muttered to herself, then clicked play and began watching patiently.

In the video, Qin Mu appeared on camera and explained the current video’s theme. It turned out that the four individuals convicted of abandonment, after receiving their suspended sentences, had, by a strange twist of fate, been assigned as volunteers to the nursing home where Feng Cuihua was. Coincidentally, a wedding was being held there. And at this wedding, these four men, for some unknown reason, actually tried to stop the ceremony.
