Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 420 - 417: No Compensation Required
Han Qingxue said despondently, "I don’t want to be entangled with him anymore, I’ll give him whatever he wants."
Lin Wanwan shook her head silently and said, "If you’re not short of money, you can indeed be generous. But now you’re advancing your salary to compensate him. Have you thought about what you’ll do about rent and living expenses for the next three months?"
Hearing this, Han Qingxue beca deflated. In reality, she was just holding a grudge, wanting to advance her salary and throw it in her boyfriend Wu Feiyue’s face, to see him feel guilty and regretful.
But in fact, since he had calculated the expenses from the start and even sent them over, it showed he was already ntally prepared. How could he still feel guilty and regretful?
Those so-called get-back-together-after-breakup tricks are probably only found in novels and TV dramas.
"Has your mom gone back to your hotown yet?" Lin Wanwan asked Han Qingxue another question.
"Not yet, she’s worried about ." Han Qingxue sighed, "I’ve fought with my boyfriend several tis recently. He’s now moved in with his buddies. My mom wants to break up with him because during my hospitalization and surgery, my boyfriend didn’t contribute at all, and my mom disapproves of him greatly."
"Are you still living in the house you cohabited in, and is the lease contract signed by you or him?"
"He did it, all of it." Han Qingxue sighed, "My mom found another place for , I’ll move there this weekend. No matter what happens in the future, my parents won’t allow to live with him again."
"Yeah, that’s good too, you should listen to your mom." Lin Wanwan agreed.
What Han Qingxue didn’t fully disclose was that her mom not only didn’t want her continuing to live with Wu Feiyue but actually didn’t want her staying in Yongcheng at all, hoping she’d quit her job and move back to the Northeast with her.
"Ah, I’ve made a wrong choice in a partner. I really am blind!" Han Qingxue lanted in frustration.
"Don’t think too much about it. You just had surgery, your body is weak, and negative emotions also affect your health. Your body is your own, don’t leave any lasting damage to yourself." Lin Wanwan offered so consolation, then switched to the main topic, "I’ll send you the lawyer info from our company later, you can consult with him about the specifics."
Han Qingxue nodded, "Okay, I’ll consult him. Thanks."
"Yeah. After you’ve consulted and if you still think it’s necessary to compensate, let know and you can submit the salary advance report; I’ll sign it."
"Okay! Thanks, boss. I understand!"
After Han Qingxue left, Lin Wanwan found Tan Qinghui’s WeChat and recomnded him to Han Qingxue. Then she briefly ntioned the situation to Tan Qinghui and inford him that the consultation fee could be settled with the company.
Tan Qinghui quickly responded with a voice ssage, telling Lin Wanwan that it was just a minor consultation and wouldn’t charge for it, as it’s covered in the annual fee.
This was naturally better, so Lin Wanwan thanked him and left the matter alone.
This incident was Han Qingxue’s private affair, and Lin Wanwan only suggested this out of sympathy for her as a girl and as a form of employee support.
Subsequently, regardless of how Han Qingxue decided to handle it, Lin Wanwan would no longer intervene or inquire.
If Han Qingxue ultimately decided to compensate her ex-boyfriend, it would just be an advance of three months of her salary, about 16,500 yuan. As long as the application was submitted, Lin Wanwan wouldn’t have an issue facilitating it.
Such an amount was a trivial matter for Lin Wanwan.
As soon as Han Qingxue returned to her seat, she received the lawyer’s WeChat contact recomnded by Lin Wanwan.
She was in no mood to work and eagerly added him on WeChat. When there was no imdiate response, she could only reluctantly focus on her work in a distracted state.
Near the end of the workday, Lin Wanwan left first, and Han Qingxue finally received a ssage that Tan Qinghui had accepted her friend request.
Han Qingxue: Hello, is this Lawyer Tan? I’m Xiao Han from Yongtang Company, I have so personal issues I’d like to consult about, do you have ti?
Tan Qinghui: Go ahead.
Han Qingxue: My ex-boyfriend and I are going through a breakup. I had an ectopic pregnancy, and he didn’t pay for the surgery, so he was scolded by my mom over the phone and didn’t visit . And today he suddenly sent a statent of expenses from the three years we dated, asking to repay them. Should I pay him?
Tan Qinghui: That depends on the details of the statent. Can you send it to for analysis?
Han Qingxue: Okay. Thank you! Statent.jpg
After anxiously waiting for a while, Han Qingxue received a voice call from Tan Qinghui on WeChat.
Afraid of disturbing her colleagues, Han Qingxue took her phone to a photography studio she basically used alone, closed the door, and answered the call.
"Hello, Lawyer Tan, thank you for helping ."
"Hi Xiao Han? I looked at the statent you sent. Let ask you a few questions. Did you have any written agreent about sharing the rent together?"
"No, right around graduation, he found the place, and I moved in after leaving the dorm. The landlord only contacts him, and I don’t handle utilities or rent. I mainly cover groceries and such at ho, cooking for myself most of the ti."
"Alright. In that case, I suggest you don’t need to pay.
The expenditures he listed don’t involve any valuable items, and whether they have receipts or not, they fall within the reasonable scope of gifts during a relationship. Once these gifts are delivered, they take effect imdiately, and the giver cannot revoke the gift without statutory grounds.
The rent for your shared place is sothing you can discuss with him to possibly pay partially. Legally, you have the advantage since he doesn’t have any written evidence proving you agreed to share the rent. This can also be seen as a reasonable gift in a relationship.
Additionally, you can claim compensation from him for dical fees, nutrition costs, and lost wages resulting from this ectopic pregnancy.
However, given your cohabitation was voluntary, he is not actually at fault regarding the ectopic pregnancy.
Legally, you both need to share responsibility for the unintentional result of the ectopic pregnancy. This ans he, at most, needs to cover half the expenses."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Lawyer Tan."
"You’re welco. Feel free to reach out if needed. Since you didn’t receive any engagent gifts or costly things intending to marry, you don’t need to worry."
After finishing the call with Tan Qinghui, Han Qingxue still didn’t feel much relief in her heart.
Though she might not need to pay him any money legally, she had genuinely invested her emotions during these three years and even experienced an ectopic pregnancy and miscarriage.
The physical and emotional damage from this is sothing that can never be compensated. As for what her friends ntioned about compensation for lost youth, she can forget about it; if Wu Feiyue doesn’t counterclaim for such compensation from her, it would already be amicable.
After being silent for a long ti, Han Qingxue sent a reply to Wu Feiyue, clearly stating that she had consulted a lawyer and didn’t need to compensate him for anything.
If he continued to pester her, she told him they could et in court, and she would retain evidence of this ectopic pregnancy and lost wages.
