He called his lawyer to report the letter he received.

Lawyer kwang: I was about to call you (sounding disturb)

Uncle chi: really, what wrong you sound disturb.

Lawyer kwang: I received a letter from advocate Chang

Uncle chi: advocate Chang?

Lawyer kwang: yes, asking us to meet in court next week.

Uncle chi: us! What does he want with us?

Lawyer kwang: over unlawful use of power and not in keeping with conventional mores.

Uncle chi: how?(confuse)

Lawyer kwang: are you asking me how? What about your nieces that you hijacked their properties and send them packing?.

Uncle chi: my nieces? Those nieces of Mine are powerless, they have no money or connection to contact advocate chang.

Lawyer kwang: you think so! I can't lose my result because of you. I guess you called because you received a letter.

Uncle Chi: yes, I almost forget.

Lawyer kwang: did you still doubt your nieces? Well, he want us to meet in court next week.

Uncle Chi: what do I do now?
