Chapter 149: Chapter 147: Legal Education on the Spot (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)
A woman’s sobs came through the phone.
"Wuwuwu, host, I feel so wronged."
Li Sulan quickly said, "Dear listener, don’t worry, do you need any legal assistance from us?"
Ye Chen was initially feeling sleepy, but the girl’s story instantly perked him up.
The girl said, "Host, I am a young caretaker, I fell in love with an old man, whose wife has been sick and hospitalized for a long time. His children don’t care about him, and I take care of him every day. He treats me well, even buys me branded bags. Now the old man wants to divorce his wife and marry me, but his children disagree and are obstructing us, I don’t know what to do."
In a rented room, the girl poured out her grievances while listening to the radio and talking over the phone.
Li Sulan comforted, "Dear girl, don’t cry. Actually, I think if the old man truly loves you, his children have no right to interfere with your relationship. If he really loves you and you love him, then the law will protect you. The law protects everyone’s right to pursue love, regardless of whether they’re young or old."
In the rented room, the girl’s eyes brightened.
Indeed, over the past year, she had taken care of the old man every day; surely she deserved some credit for her hardship.
As the old man was about to marry her, with the house in her name, how could she give up?
Ye Chen was speechless after hearing Li Sulan’s words.
Is this a legal advice show or an emotional counseling program?
Everyone has the right to pursue love, sure, but are you certain this girl in her early twenties loves a seventy-year-old man, loves his age, loves his lack of bathing? It’s clearly about the old man’s property, isn’t it?
No need to ask, this girl is surely another green tea woman like Li Hong.
And you’re encouraging this?
Li Sulan glanced at Song Ziqi and Ye Chen, her look clearly instructing them to follow her line of reasoning.
Many are familiar with the show’s format.
The guests will surely elaborate on how love is protected by the law, etc...
But once Ye Chen spoke up, the broadcast room went silent.
Even the sleepy listeners instantly perked up.
Ye Chen calmly said, "Girl, I think you should turn yourself in and seek lenient treatment."
Everyone was dumbfounded by Ye Chen’s words.
Isn’t this just a relationship issue?
The girl loves the old man, is there anything wrong with that?
And you want her to turn herself in?
A listener, who was drinking and snacking with his wife, spat his drink out, spraying his wife’s face.
This guest is incredible, did the girl steal something? You want her to turn herself in?
The girl was pondering how to legally confront the old man’s children, yet heard Ye Chen saying to turn herself in.
For some reason, this voice sounded so familiar.
"Host, what do you mean? Is there something wrong with freely loving the old man? Why do you want me to turn myself in, did I break the law? You better explain clearly today or I’m not done."
By now, all the radio listeners were engrossed, eager to understand why Ye Chen wanted the girl to turn herself in.
Li Sulan also frowned; guests are supposed to cooperate with her show, but this guest was babbling nonsense on air.
If there’s trouble, this would be a broadcast incident.
Just as she wanted to stop Ye Chen, he spoke again.
"Since you don’t understand the law, let me enlighten you on some legal concepts. To make it easy to understand, I’ll tell you a little story."
Ye Chen activated his divine level hosting skills, making his voice very appealing and charismatic, instantly captivating the audience in front of the radio.
"There was a young caretaker named Li Si, her situation was the same as yours. She developed feelings for an old man due to the constant care she provided, and the old man bought her many luxury goods... Later on..."
This story was no different from the girl’s situation, Ye Chen was merely recounting it.
After finishing the story, Ye Chen asked, "Does everyone know what law this girl violated?"
The listeners were instantly dumbfounded.
Isn’t this just a common story of a caretaker falling for an old man? How did it involve breaking the law?
Things aren’t that serious!
"Host, this is at most an ethical issue, how did it become illegal?"
"Exactly, things aren’t that serious."
"Exactly, what kind of society is this now, how could this be illegal?"
Not only the listeners, but even Li Sulan and Song Ziqi looked at Ye Chen bewildered.
Ye Chen shook his head, saying, in the past, he too thought it wasn’t a big deal, but he has divine level lawyer skills, so he clearly understands the seriousness of this matter.
"Wrong, she not only broke the law, but also needs to go to jail." Ye Chen state’s firmly.
"What?"
The crowd was dumbfounded.
She needs to be jailed for this?
That’s too much, isn’t it?
Ye Chen calmly said:
"The caretaker Li Si violated the law, first, the old man’s spouse is hospitalized, yet you lure her husband, and you probably also have a husband, this falls under adultery within marriage."
"Second, the old man and his spouse’s property is jointly owned, yet you seduced him into buying you luxury goods, that’s fraud."
"Third, you are ruining the old man’s marriage and want him to divorce his wife, this constitutes conspiracy to acquire property."
Ye Chen continued, "Do you know what punishment caretaker Li Si faces?"
The young caretaker was pale with fright.
She simply wanted to marry the old man and con him out of a house, then wait a few years for him to pass as a security measure.
But who would’ve thought this was illegal.
She shivered and asked, "What’s the punishment!"
Ye Chen calmly said, "First, adultery within marriage, you face detention for fifteen days, if serious, up to one year imprisonment; second, fraud, getting the elder to write the house in your name and buy so many luxury goods, the total sum must be around two million, five to ten years of imprisonment."
...
Ye Chen continued, "That caretaker named Li Si is still undergoing reform inside, so quickly turn yourself in and strive for lenient treatment, perhaps you still have a chance...."
At this moment, all the broadcast station’s listeners were dumbfounded.
They indeed learned something new; it actually is a crime.
"My gosh, I thought about seducing a married boss; turns out that is a crime too."
"I’ve learned something new; turns out having an affair really is illegal."
"Wow, now I understand, romance isn’t illegal, but doing it for money is."
"Originally, I didn’t want to work hard anymore, I wanted to find a sugar mama for a carefree second life, Teacher Ye, thank you for saving me."
The live-stream comments instantly flooded the screen.
The staff were shocked to discover that the previously low-rated legal education program’s ratings suddenly skyrocketed.
