"I'm sorry, Lawyer Du, I have something to do today, I'm afraid I can't work overtime, do you want to find someone else to do it?" Lingche cautiously refused.

"Lingche, please, this is a big case, you can't make a mistake, you are most familiar with this piece, if you don't do it, who will do it?" Duran's voice suddenly raised three degrees: "Xiaomin, can you?" “

Xiao Min's head had already shaken into a rattle: "Lawyer Du, it's not that I don't want to take it, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to do it well, I've never been good at this kind of case." "If you are not good at it, you can't make up for it, when can you blatantly put it out as a reason to refuse a work assignment?" Xiang Ke appeared at the door at some point, and there was an unquestionable authority in his voice: "It's up to you to follow up on this case, I hope that in my department, I won't hear the word bad again." "Yes, lawyer Xiang, I was wrong." Xiao Min's eyes were already red, and she swallowed her tears into her stomach aggrievedly, everyone understands that tears in the legal practice will never be exchanged for sympathy, and can only be used as a confirmation of your incompetence, she hurriedly put down the bag that had already been packed, and barely squeezed out a smile: "Lawyer Du, give me a chance to exercise." “

Duran nodded at her nondeniably. Ling Che was stunned in embarrassment, she never thought of pushing her job to Xiao Min like this, let alone that Xiang Ke would speak to Xiao Min in such a stern tone.

Xiang Ke was a little impatient, and urged: "Lingling, let's go, don't let grandpa wait." “

When this sentence was blurted out, the entire office was shocked, and everyone looked at Xiang Ke who made a voice in disbelief and Ling Che who lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers, wanting to confirm the relationship between the two.

Ling Che had no choice but to bite the bullet and walked towards Xiang Ke. Xiang Ke smiled slightly, took her into his arms, and announced, "I'll tell you a good news, I'm dating Lingche." But only in private, there is nothing Linda needs to be polite to her about work. “

Linda smiled and nodded, "That's natural." “

Xiang Ke took Lingche's hand and walked downstairs, leaving a room of people who had not yet recovered from the shock, and Xiao Min suddenly cried.

Duran glanced at her irritably, and said impatiently: "Forget it, I won't work overtime today, let's do it tomorrow." “

Xiao Min's crying became even more tragic until Ding Lin improvised and decided to invite her to a big dinner.

Sitting in Shen Sijia's car, Lingche also looked nervous.

Xiang Ke gently squeezed her hand in the palm of her hand and asked softly, "You won't be angry because of what happened just now, right?" ”

Ling Che shook his head: "Actually, Xiao Min, she has always worked hard, but today she is not in a good mood." ”

"No one is going to take care of your mood." Xiang Ke said: "This is the rule of survival in the workplace, if I am not very strict today, tomorrow she may refuse to do more things she could have done under the same excuse, and developing such a habit is not conducive to her future development." “

"I understand." Lingche nodded, "But this should have been my job." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you deal with a lot more copywriting than everyone else, and it's good for those who can work more, but it's not an excuse for the incompetent to be lazy."

"Brother" Shen Sijia interrupted Xiang Ke's words: "Please, two of you, don't discuss work anymore when you get off work, okay?" “

"Okay" Xiang Ke smiled: "Let's listen to Sijia, Lingling, don't think too much." “

Ling Che nodded obediently, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, and he shouted: "It's miserable, I was busy with work all day today, and I forgot to prepare a gift for my grandfather when I came to the door for the first time!" “

Sijia smiled: "Don't worry, my brother has prepared it for you, in the trunk!" “

"Oh!" Ling Che nodded embarrassedly: "Next time, I will definitely prepare it myself." ”

"Silly girl." Xiang Ke rubbed her forehead indulgently: "Isn't what I prepared is what you prepared?" “

The car sped through the city center, and soon drove into the city spring, the most luxurious and extravagant restaurant in the center of the city. Xiang Ke asked quietly, "Sijia, didn't you say that you would go home?" ”

Sijia said softly: "Grandma said that the first time the guests meet, it looks grander outside. “

Ling Che and Xiang Ke got out of the car, Si Jia looked at the two of them thoughtfully, and rushed to Ke Nu and said, "You guys go in, Rainbow Hall." “

"What, aren't you going in?" Xiang Ke wondered.

"I won't go, and I'm going to be forced to marry by my grandmother again. You talk, I'll go home first, brother, I won't be your driver at night, let my grandfather send someone to take you home. “

"Okay, stay safe on your own road." Xiang Ke nodded.

“Bye!” Sijia smiled and got into the car.

Xiang Ke took Lingche's hand, and under the guidance of the waiter, he came to the Rainbow Hall.

A middle-aged man in a Tang costume was already waiting there and greeted him from afar: "Young master, you can sit down first, Madame, she will be there soon." ”

"Hmm." Xiang Ke nodded and introduced Lingche to the middle-aged man: "Uncle Fu, this is my girlfriend, Su Lingche." ”

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, and said to Ling Che: "Hello, Miss Su, I am Xiang Fu, the housekeeper of the Xiang family." ”

"Hello Uncle Fu." Ling Che smiled and nodded, and sat down with Xiang Ke, beginning to fall into a long wait.

After waiting for an hour, no one had come over, so Xiang Fu came over apologetically and asked Xiang Ke if he had ordered some snacks to cushion his stomach first. Xiang Ke nodded slightly in agreement, but was interrupted by Ling Che: "That's not good, let's wait." “

Xiang Ke thought about it and agreed.

Time passed minute by minute, the sky was gradually dark, Lingche's head began to sink more and more like a chicken pecking rice, only to hear Xiang Fu run over with an excited face: "Madame is here, Madame is here." “

I saw a tall middle-aged woman leading an old lady with crane hair walking slowly. The middle-aged woman is dressed in an embroidered satin cheongsam and carries a string of pearl necklaces, just like a woman from the Republic of China who walked out of the painting, which has a unique charm. The old lady looked dignified and kind, with a smile on her face, and walked slowly towards this side.

Lingche stood up, but saw Xiang Ke sitting there motionless, unresponsive. She wanted to pull Xiang Ke, but Xiang Ke seemed to be petrified in an instant, and just stared coldly at the comer.

Ling Che couldn't guess their identities, so he had to froze there uneasily, not standing or sitting.

The middle-aged woman's delicate makeup couldn't hide the tiredness on her face, she smiled and nodded to Lingche, helped the old lady sit down, broke the silence around her, and motioned to Lingche: "Sit down and talk." “

Lingche smiled awkwardly and sat down. Xiang Fu saw that everyone was ready, muttered a few words in the middle-aged woman's ear, and hurriedly ran out to order the waiter to serve the food.

"Xiao Ke, why don't you tell us about this beautiful girl next to you?" The old lady laughed.

Xiang Ke was stunned for a moment, and sneered: "Isn't Grandpa coming today?" ”

The middle-aged woman hurriedly explained: "The old man was originally going to come, but there was a temporary emergency in the company that he had to deal with, so my mother asked me to come by name." Why, we don't have enough portions?"

"Did I ask you?" Xiang Ke coldly interrupted the middle-aged woman's explanation: "Didn't Grandpa tell me to bring Lingche to see her today?" ”

"Xiang Ke, even if you don't want to call Furong Mom, at least you should know the minimum politeness as a junior, right?" The old lady insisted.

"So, didn't grandma come to see her granddaughter-in-law today?" Xiang Kedao.

"I want to see my daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law." The old lady said slowly: "Ke'er, after so many years, you have to step over this hurdle!" As she spoke, she smiled and looked at Lingche: "Girl, what's your name?" ”

"Su Lingche." Ling Che hurriedly replied.

"Dexterous and clear, good name." The old lady smiled slightly: "The grandson is not sensible, the old woman is his grandmother, and the one next to him is his stepmother." ”

Ling Che imagined many possibilities of being disliked, but she didn't expect this dinner to be so embarrassing, she cautiously laughed and said, "Grandma is good, Auntie is good." ”

"That's what a good boy is." The old lady smiled: "Ke'er has a stubborn temper, you have nothing to persuade him more, no matter what time it is, home is the most important haven in people's lives." How nice it is to sit and eat together as a family. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm full." Xiang Ke interrupted the old lady again, and as he spoke, he took Ling Che's hand, pulled Ling Che hard, and walked towards the hall.

"Young master, young master." Xiang Fu trotted all the way to follow him: "It's good, what's wrong?" “

"It's nothing, Uncle Fu, go back to see grandma." With that, Xiang Ke had already pulled Lingche out of the hotel.

Ling Che followed behind Xiang Ke with a worried face, not knowing what had happened to make Xiang Ke, who had always been heavy and calm, so out of shape. Xiang Ke didn't say a word, she could only follow him quietly, through the square lined with high-rise buildings, and came to the lakeside of Jiexin Park.

Xiang Ke suddenly turned his head and hugged Lingche tightly in his arms, a long and thick kiss.

A hot and moist tear ran across Lingche's face, and Lingche was deeply disturbed by the hot kiss.

"Lingling, I don't have a home, you are now my only family." After a long time, Xiang Ke Cai said slowly.

Why do you say that, don't you have a grandfather, a grandmother, and a cousin Sijia who is like a flower? Ling Che muttered secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it. All those who know Xiang Ke's resume should understand that over the years, his achievements in the legal industry have completely relied on his own efforts and hard work, and everyone knows how he has gone from an unknown hairy young man step by step to the altar of today's legal elite. No one has ever mentioned his inextricable connection with Shengshi Group, so much so that when Shen Sijia first appeared in the company, everyone thought they were a couple. At this moment, how did Xiang Ke suddenly become the young master of the Shengshi Group? All of this, Ling Che was not without doubts, but out of respect for Xiang Ke, she would never ask more if he didn't want to say anything.

"Fifteen years ago, my mother drowned in this lake." Xiang Ke said quietly, but Lingche was shocked when he heard it.
