Chapter 134: Returning Home
A new day was supposed to be sunny.
But because Xiaoqing was not around, Lingche felt that he had been having nightmares since the morning, and all kinds of bad luck happened one after another.
First, the alarm clock failed and accidentally overslept, and then when I was rushing to catch the car, I encountered the traffic jam of the century.
Thinking that Xiaoqing was out alone and didn't know if she was doing well, her heart was even more tangled.
By the time she hurried to the office, she was already more than an hour late. Today, I want to accompany my boss to meet a very important client!
Fortunately, her boss, Mr. Robert, is a complete gentleman, and after hearing about Lingche's experience, he did not blame her, but was very concerned about her daughter's current situation.
She shouldn't have told her colleagues too much, but she couldn't help but ask Robert about a solution to a similar case.
It's a pity that Robert didn't provide her with any useful advice, but sighed: "Miss Su, I didn't expect you to have so many difficulties, no wonder you are in such a hurry to rush home every time you work overtime, I would not have stayed too late if I knew that you had such a hardship." ”
Ling Che nodded awkwardly, but listened to Robert's words and continued: "I advise you to give up the custody of your daughter, so that it will actually be good for you and your daughter." ”
Ling Che looked at this amiable old man incredulously, does everyone in the world think that the father of the strong economy and the child should be awarded to the father?
Just in confusion, Robert's secretary walked in with a smile: "Mr. Robert, Miss Su, the client is here." ”
"Okay, Lingche, come with me to meet this distinguished guest from China!" Robert said with a smile on his face.
Lingche has long been accustomed to such a scene, whenever a Chinese person needs legal services, Robert will bring her along, everyone is Chinese, and it will be relatively convenient to communicate. It's just that today's customer was called a distinguished guest by Robert, and she had to cheer up and accompany her.
But when she saw the man sitting in the reception room, her whole nerve couldn't help but jump outward.
The sunlight shone through the bright floor-to-ceiling windows, giving him a lazy atmosphere.
Mr. Robert stepped forward with a smile and grabbed Xiang Ke's hand: "Mr. Xiang, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Xiang Ke was slightly stunned when he heard his fluent Chinese in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Hello." ”
Robert continued: "The two must already know each other, so they don't need me to introduce them again, right? ”
Ling Che looked embarrassed: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Our firm now has full authority to represent Mr. Xiang in the custody dispute." Robert didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said proudly: "Miss Su, Mr. Xiang is a big customer, so you must not be lazy." ”
"Then should I avoid suspicion?" Ling Che couldn't help but be a little angry: "You should know that the person who sued Mr. Xiang is me." ”
"You don't have to, we don't have anything to hide from you, according to your current situation, it's a fantasy to win this lawsuit, so do you want to settle out of court?" When Robert said this, he was still able to maintain a sincere face.
Seeing the fake smile on the white old man's face, Ling Che only felt a burst of soreness in her heart, and she fixed her mind and said, "Mr. Robert, this doesn't seem to be within my job responsibilities. ”
"I know, I know" Robert nodded hurriedly, "I also want to help you out of humanitarian considerations, and you probably don't want your daughter to stay in the Child Protective Services all the time, right?" The children there, most of the families have problems, and your daughter has been with them......"
"Wait, I don't quite understand, why is Xiaoqing at Child Protective Services?" Xiang Ke interrupted Robert's questioning, confused.
"Isn't it your handiwork? The lawyer who bribed me gave up helping me defend my rights, Xiang Ke, I really didn't expect that we would come this far. Thinking of this, Lingche's heart was filled with pain.
"Miss Su, I don't even know who your lawyer is, so how can I buy it?" Xiang Ke was a little angry and said, "What did Xiaoqing take away for what reason?" ”
Ling Che was extremely angry in his heart: "Xiang Ke, dare to do it or not, is this your style?" ”
Xiang Ke ignored her and said directly to Robert: "Please help me contact the Child Protection Service, I want to pick up my daughter." ”
"But, Mr. Xiang, you have to prove that you are your daughter's biological father first." Robert was slowly talking about the tongue twister, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Xiang Ke again: "I don't care what method you use, I must see my daughter within today!" ”
"Good, good, good." Robert saw Xiang Ke's uncertain expression, and hurriedly agreed: "Let's do it." So saying, he trotted all the way out.
Ling Che glanced at him helplessly, and was about to leave, but heard Ke Dao: "Wait a minute." ”
"I think it's a misunderstanding, something must have gone wrong." Xiang Ke's voice suddenly became very soft, but he still couldn't hide the panic in his heart: "I will definitely find a way to pick up our daughter as soon as possible." ”
Ling Che was slightly stunned, Xiang Ke had never lied to her, he said that this was a misunderstanding, so this matter should have nothing to do with him, so who was calculating her? Or is it really as Shen Ling said that he was too accidentally discovered by his neighbors, is it really that simple?
She nodded slightly, "I hope so." ”
Robert really fulfilled his consistent principle of "taking people's money and eliminating disasters with others", and in the evening, Xiaoqing was successfully brought out by him. It's just that since then, Xiaoqing's custody has been transferred from Lingche's hands to Xiang Ke's hands.
The moment he saw his daughter, Lingche felt that his whole heart was hollowed out, thinking that he would no longer be able to get along with her day and night in the future, and he only felt that his life would be bleak from now on.
Xiaoqing threw herself into Lingche's arms and shouted, "Mommy! Mommy! ”
Ling Che hesitated for a moment before taking her into his arms.
But it was this momentary hesitation, and she was completely looked at by Sensitive Xiaoqing: "Mom, it's really not me!" Xiaoqing's eyes were full of tears, and she said with a look of grievance.
"Whatever happens, go back and talk about it." Xiang Ke picked up Xiaoqing, put her in the car, and then naturally said to Lingche: "Get in the car." ”
"Let's have a meal together!" Xiang Ke broke the silence in the car and said with a smile.
Lingche shook his head: "No need, just send me home." At the mention of home, her heart couldn't help but hurt, the nest she and her daughter ran together, the home that was once full of her daughter's laughter, no longer belonged to her, and what was left to her was endless nostalgia.
