Chapter 179: The Old Man

It is said that a provincial undergraduate college, a well-known art college in the country, does not have too many star students, and the funds in the account are often hundreds of millions, and it is not so difficult to repay the arrears of 20 million, but this amount of money has been deducted for three years, and it is really a bully.

However, it is no wonder that in schools with a main hall level that eats imperial grain, the school leaders enjoy the treatment of the main hall level, and it is inevitable that their tails will rise to the sky. In addition, Yinghong is a foreign company, if you don't bully you, who will you bully?

He clenched his hand into a fist under his chin, his thin lips pursed and he thought about what to do next, and suddenly sneered.

He wished Jinchuan not only to fight intellectual property cases, but also to live by always finding the most appropriate identification materials and expert witnesses. When it comes to understanding civil procedure, it is not lost to anyone.

Since this road is impassable, don't blame him for finding another way. It's just a program, who's afraid of whom?

Chao Yu made a phone call, and Zhu Jinchuan briefly explained the attitude of the other party inferred from today's mediation situation, and spent ten minutes explaining the obstacles that Yinghong wanted to get back the project money smoothly, as well as his plans for the next step.

After ending the call, Zhu Jinchuan held the phone in his hand, a little stunned. He originally planned to spend an hour or even two hours to convince this Mr. Xie, but he didn't expect that when he heard Zhu Jinchuan say on the phone that he would withdraw the lawsuit immediately, there was no wave in his voice, only that everything was done according to Zhu Jinchuan's ideas.

I heard that this Xiao Xie has only inherited the company for less than a year, and he is about the same age as Ling Li, but he is very courageous. Thinking of the hurried side when I signed the power of attorney last time, although I was young but very calm, even if I was as well-informed as Zhu Jinchuan, I had to sigh that I was really a hero.

Still thinking about the case, the doorbell suddenly rang.

No one knew he was coming without relatives or reason in Gyeongju, and Zhu Jinchuan thought it was room service or something, but as soon as he opened the door, his face in front of him was really beyond his expectations.

He had forgotten that there was an old man who was not an old man here.

Yu Wenzhong raised his head slightly, looked at him and smiled: "I wish the lawyer, don't come to be harmed?" ”

Zhu Jinchuan was only surprised for a moment, and then his expression returned to indifference, and he said slowly: "Professor Yu, what are you doing?" ”

"What? Anyway, you also got acquainted, and you didn't invite me in to sit down? Yu Wenzhong chuckled and said, but the smile obviously did not enter his eyes.

Zhu Jinchuan leaned against the door, put his hand in his trouser pocket, and only looked at the middle-aged man in front of him silently.

Being stared at coldly by this man who was half a head taller than himself, Rao is Yu Wenzhong's psychological quality is strong enough, and he is ready to come to find unpleasantness, but he is still a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He earns more than Zhu Jinchuan, and his social status and influence are incomparable, even if there is a disadvantage in height, but a man's appearance has never been the primary condition for judging social status, and it stands to reason that he should not be weak.

However, even eight years ago, from the moment he saw Zhu Jinchuan, he inexplicably felt that he was doing something wrong, and even with a height that was not too tall, he was even shorter.

It was this inexplicable feeling that made him make actions that had nothing to do with reason again and again in matters related to Zhu Jinchuan and Xue Yin.

Yu Wenzhong didn't speak, Zhu Jinchuan stood in place and waited for a while, looked at his watch, and said lightly: "If it's nothing, I'm going to rest." ”

After speaking, he leaned on the door and raised his arm, and he was about to close the door.

Yu Wenzhong stepped forward to block his action of closing the door, sighed slightly and said, "I'm here to talk to you about Wan'er, you actually found Li Hui to dig her up, it seems that you are unwilling to give up." Can you find a place to talk about it? ”

Zhu Jinchuan had a dark look on his face, frowning and staring at him.

Regarding Qi Wan's origin, he asked Li Hui to check it for several days, and finally had some eyebrows. As expected, Qi Wan did not forge personal information such as her place of origin, academic qualifications, etc., with the intention of sneaking into the institute with bad intentions. She came for Xue Yin, so the question of why she came was naturally solved.

That's to pay off debts.

It's just who owes whom, and how can it be said clearly now?

As for Yu Wenzhong, he only planned to stay in Gyeongju for just two days after coming and going, and he could also be approached by him, it seems that he cares too much about this matter.

If you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime, he nodded: "Okay." ”

In the café on the first floor of the hotel, Zhu Jinchuan and Yu Wenzhong faced each other, each drinking tea in their hands.

"How did you come up with the connection between Wan'er and Xiaoyin?"

After a long time, Yu Wenzhong asked such a sentence.

Zhu Jinchuan said expressionlessly: "You probably forgot, eight years ago, you made your own public welfare activity assistance plan, allowing your students and assistants to pair up one-on-one to help those juvenile delinquents, Xue Yin probably met Qi Wan at that time." She had mentioned her twinning children to me a few times, and I vaguely remembered her name as Wan'er. ”

Hearing him accurately bring out this incident from his memories, Yu Wenzhong was a little surprised, and then his eyes darkened: "Since you know the connection between the two of them, can you put aside this matter and leave it alone, so that Qi Wan can pass this level?" ”

Even if there is a juvenile criminal record sealed under this umbrella, people with a heart can always find out those past events, not to mention Li Hui, a classmate of Zhu Jinchuan who did not work hard in the Supreme People's Procuratorate but found another way to become a private detective.

This is also a small celebrity, he has been seen in many cases that have set off big storms, if such a person has been staring at Qi Wan, I am afraid that Qi Wan will be doxxed one day sooner or later.

Although Qi Wan has done something wrong, if she hadn't been willing to take care of Xue Yin all these years, I was afraid that Yu Wenzhong would be even more embarrassed.

Zhu Jinchuan shook his head slightly: "There are some bottom lines that can't be stepped on, do you think Qi Wan is atoning for your sins, so she is running around for her, but you have left people abroad all these years and ignored them, can you really get through the hurdle in your heart?" ”

Yu Wenzhong was noncommittal to his words, but his eyes seemed to be tumbling with waves.

After a while, he asked, "Then why did you bring Ling Ling's sister as an apprentice again?" Isn't that an atonement for your sins? Isn't it because of the meaning of Li Dai Taozhuang? ”

Listening to what Yu Wenzhong said about "Li Dai Tao stiff", Zhu Jinchuan's dark and quiet eyes finally made a trace of waves.

His voice was slightly cold: "Yu Wenzhong, I have endured too much of your ghost tricks over the years, please put away your claws and stop making people laugh." ”

Yu Wenzhong lowered his head and didn't look at him, and after more than ten seconds, his voice was a little cold: "I know that Zhou Qingchun committed suicide, this matter is not so simple." I have been handling this case for eight years, and I know a lot of inside information, and I know very well that Zhong Chengheng is definitely not a murderer. It's just that I've been investigating for eight years, and I still can't find out who the real culprit is. Lawyer Zhu, do you know? ”

Listening to his topic suddenly turn to the matter of Ling Li's case, Zhu Jinchuan's eyes were gloomy for a moment. And when he heard Yu Wenzhong's question at the end, he was stunned: "Even the police can't figure out this question, and I naturally don't know it." ”

"Really?" He smiled, and then said: "It just so happens that I know that on the day of the accident eight years ago, you happened to be on a business trip to Nanxi. Lawyer Zhu, can you tell me what you were doing at that time? ”

Zhu Jinchuan's expression was cold, his lips were pursed, his cold eyes swept over the man in front of him with hatred in his eyes, and his voice was also unstoppably cold: "Yu Wenzhong, I hope you will be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't take out these words to test my endurance." ”

"Why does Qi Wan have to come to your side to do tricks, why do you have to target that little lawyer, don't say that you don't know the reason." Yu Wenzhong propped up Erlang's legs, his expression was a little hideous: "What have you done yourself, don't think that no one will know if no one mentions it now." ”

Zhu Jinchuan shook his head amusedly: "Yu Wenzhong, are you old and confused?" I said at the beginning that the reason why I don't hold you accountable for what you have done is just that I hope you can treat Xiaoyin better, as for what happened to you later, it was an entanglement between your husband and wife, and it had nothing to do with anyone else. In order to shirk responsibility, you want to incite Qi Wan to hate me, resent me, and deal with me, it doesn't matter, if you can't even get a hairy girl, what else can I mess with? ”

As he spoke, he picked up his coat and stood up, and said one last sentence: "It's just that if you stretch out your claws to someone who doesn't matter, don't blame me for being unkind." ”

Yu Wenzhong also stood up and stood behind him with a sad sentence: "Then when are you going to tell her about you and her sister?" It would have been a big surprise. ”

Zhu Jinchuan paused, his straight back was almost invisible, and then he left without saying a word.

At two o'clock in the morning, Zhu Jinchuan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, there was a moment of confusion in his eyes, and then he sat up slowly, got out of bed and put on his coat, stepped on the carpet with bare feet, and walked to the window.

Sure enough, she thought about it day and night, and was mentioned by Yu Wenzhong during the day Ling Ling, and she fell asleep at night.

I took out the cigarette case from my coat and knocked it out. When I was about to flick the ashes, I remembered that the room was located on a smoke-free floor, and there was no ashtray in the room.

After looking for a long time, he couldn't deal with it, and he couldn't learn how to bounce the cigarette ash into the water glass, so he had to throw a few puffs of cigarettes into the toilet and flush them away with the water.

Unexpectedly, although the cigarette was extinguished, it floated on the surface of the water and kept spinning, refusing to sink.

Just like that memory, even if he thought he had forgotten it, once it was mentioned, he couldn't wait to surface from the depths of his mind, and he couldn't hold it down.

In the dream just now, she was dressed in a white dress and with black hair fluttering, standing barefoot on a craggy rock on the shore of Weiming Lake and smiling at him.

That's what she looked like when she was eighteen.

and the crisp "Brother Kuroko" in his ears, it seems that he has not heard anyone call him like that for many years.

When he was a teenager, he had no guesses, fighting and fighting, and at the earliest, this wild girl always called him black and fat, and the annoyed and angry young man lost all his fat in a fit of anger.

After that, after a lot of going around and around, in the best years, they loved each other and embraced each other. Even if fate is drifting away, it does not prevent it from being a very good time.

Even, the best of all.

But beautiful things are always easy to fade, as if only the regrets that you once had can set off the incomparably precious year in a hurry.

Zhu Jinchuan closed his eyes, and the last face of the year seemed to appear in front of him.

Her pale and emaciated appearance at that time, even more youthful and radiant than when she was with him, made him unforgettable.

He was already a little out of control at that time, and said something that he regretted for many years: "It's just a matter of waiting for the price to be sold, and who is it sold to?" Why can't I buy it? ”

In response to him, it was a slap in the face from Ling Ling.

Regret it? He asked himself. It's a pity that after thinking about it for a long time, there is still no answer.

When he came to his senses, he found a burning cigarette in his hand, ashes strewn on the carpet, and the stain made him frown a little uncomfortably.

After dealing with the carpet that was accidentally soiled just now, Zhu Jinchuan looked out the window at the sky that was gradually starting to turn white, and heard the alarm of his mobile phone ring in a quiet room.

That night, he had slept for less than three hours, but he was extremely awake at this time.

The deceased is gone, but there is another lonely and helpless child struggling. What if anyone wanted to pull her into that bottomless maelstrom?

Can you still sit back and watch sensibly?

The secret buried in time may really come to see the light of day again.
