Shen Xingru didn't sleep all night, and didn't fall asleep in chaos until after seven o'clock in the morning, and it was already afternoon when he woke up again.

She subconsciously reached for her phone on the bedside table, but knocked it down on the wireless charging dock.

She struggled to get up, with a splitting headache, and picked up her phone to see countless text messages waiting to be replied to.

First of all, Qin Mu said that he went to see Xiuyuan this morning, and he had something important to tell her, and asked her if it was inconvenient to meet in the afternoon.

Shen Xingru replied and asked him to come directly to her house.

It's hard for her to go out right away in her mental state, and it's a bit dangerous to drive.

Then Dong Haining sent a few links, all of which were some restaurants around, and asked her to pick one, saying that she wanted to make an appointment for dinner today.

Shen Xingru chose the Quartet and Sanchuan, and in recent days, he always feels that his taste has declined, and he has no appetite, so he may need Sichuan food to stimulate it.

Then there is a message of condolences to Wanwan, which is nothing more than telling her to eat on time or something.

Shen Xingru got up and took a shower, and after cleaning himself up a little, Qin Mu had already arrived at the door.

She hurried downstairs to open the door, and couldn't help but say, "What's so urgent?"

Qin Mu walked in without saying a word, sat down on the sofa, put the briefcase aside, clasped his hands together, rested his forearms on his lap, and sighed.

Shen Xingru sensed that things were not simple, sat on the sofa on the other side and said, "What's wrong?"

Qin Mu said: "I went to see him today, and his mood was quite stable, but he asked me not to continue to be his defense lawyer......

Shen Xingru gritted his teeth with hatred: "Is he crazy?

Qin Mu's face was calm and indifferent, and he said, "He has other candidates." ”

"Who is he going to choose? No matter what he says, he has already signed anyway, is he going to die if he continues to make such a fuss?" Shen Xingru's liver was two feet high, she didn't understand why he suddenly changed his mind, didn't he trust her? Could it be that he suspected that she had a special relationship with Qin Mu, so she felt uncomfortable?

Qin Mu raised his head and looked at Shen Xingru and said, "He wants to ask you to defend him." ”

"Me?" Shen Xingru couldn't believe it: "Did he forget that I didn't take the bar exam at that time, and now I don't have a lawyer's certificate?"

Qin Mu said: "Natural persons can also serve as defenders. ”

Shen Xingru grabbed the armrest of the sofa with one hand, and unconsciously exerted his strength: "Of course I know, but there are many inconveniences in defending natural persons, and they can't access the case file or anything, did you tell him? Besides, I have never appeared in court, and I have no experience in criminal cases, I studied jurisprudence and legal history when I was a graduate student, and I did pure theoretical research, so I don't know how to argue in court at all! He is a criminal case, and the prosecutors are all experienced in a hundred battles, and the defender is already at a disadvantage, so you may not be able to turn this case over when you appear in court, let alone me?" Is he crazy? You tell him that if he continues to make trouble like this, I won't care about him anymore! Let him fend for himself! Anyway, the court will eventually appoint a legal aid lawyer to help him defend his case for free......

"Shen Xingru, calm down......" Qin Mu interrupted her.

Shen Xingru covered her mouth and shrank into the depths of the sofa.

"He said that he wanted to give you his life, and he was relieved of the final outcome. As for the bar exam, you have three months to prepare. This year's exams were leaked, causing an uproar, and all the results will be invalidated, and they will be retaken in three months. ”

"That's too late, even if I have passed the exam, I have to wait for the results to be released after the exam, collect the evidence, and then register in the law firm for another year to have the qualification to practice as a lawyer. ”

He said, isn't there a second trial? You can just get a lawyer's certificate before the second trial. ”

"The second instance? Have you explained it to him? In many cases of this kind of certainty, the second instance will not be tried in separate court, and the court of second instance will directly issue an opinion and it will be over, so how can there be a chance?"

Unlike Shen Xingru's gradual hysteria, Qin Mu was always very calm.

He still looked at Shen Xingru and said in a straight voice: "Have you ever thought that this may be the last requirement in his life." ”

Shen Xingru seemed to have been struck by lightning, and instantly quieted down.

"Think about it, I'll go first. Don't worry about the early stage, I'll take care of it. If you have anything to say for me to bring him, feel free to call me or WeChat. Qin Mu picked up the briefcase, got up and went out.

Until he closed the door, Shen Xingru was still motionless.

"Ding!"

It is the prompt tone of WeChat.

Shen Xingru took out his mobile phone with a blank expression.

Dong Haining sent her a message and asked if she needed to come and pick her up.

Shen Xingru glanced at the time on his phone, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon.

She replied, "I'll just go over on my own." ”

Then, she hurried upstairs and stood in front of the sink to start applying makeup.

She uses the MAC316 color, commonly known as the matte pepper.

When he pulled out the red hat, Shen Xingru's hands were shaking all the time, causing the paste to be wrung out a little more.

She tried to calm down, but she couldn't apply it firmly to her lips.

In the end, she accidentally used too much force, and at the same time that the lipstick crossed the lip line, the first half of the paste was broken, and only the black tube was still in her hand.

Shen Xingru watched as the half of the lipstick slid into the depths of the square slab, and finally got stuck in the drain.

She turned on the faucet hatefully, took the water in her palm, and wiped it vigorously on her mouth.

"You slut! Who cares about you? Who wants to help you? Do you like to use it! Why am I taking the bar exam in a good way? I won't appear in court for you! I won't lose this person for you! You don't deserve it! It's better for you to die! It's all your own fault, and you are all self-inflicted on yourself for today's fate!"

Shen Xingru cursed non-stop while reaching for the foundation and cushion to prepare for touch-up.

Lamer's Luminous Radiance Foundation is light and moisturizing, with a dermabrasive finish, and it is also a matte matte texture that Shen Xingru likes, which becomes more beautiful at night.

Shen Xingru squeezed out some foundation liquid and was about to apply it to his face, when he looked up and saw himself in the mirror.

Extremely severe dark circles are stuck to a few eyelashes covered with eyeliner and mascara.

It was like the parched riverbed suddenly rising in spring, and her face, which was originally stuck in powder, was covered with countless deep groove-like tear stains.

At six o'clock in the evening of the same day, Shen Xingru appeared on time in the lobby of Sanlitun Tongying Center, Sifang Sanchuan, under the starry night scene full of small lights.

She has delicate makeup and a subtle smile.

Dior's solid bodycon top and tarot tulle skirt huged her curves, and a pre-fall '19 blazer slung over her shoulders.

No one could see what a moment of collapse she had just experienced.
