Chapter 333: Exposed
Because she took leave the next day, Ling Li canceled the alarm and forgot the time, and as a result, she couldn't get up from sleep.
Ling Shuang had made lunch before she got up from the bed.
As soon as I talked about it the night before, I couldn't stop the car. Starting from the interesting story when I was a child, I expected that I couldn't stop, and I didn't go to bed until almost four o'clock.
As a result, she slept enough, and a pregnant woman still worked hard to take care of herself, Ling Li was very embarrassed.
Wake up, freshen up, and get down to business.
After lunch, she moved a chair and sat on the edge of the terrace, separated by a glass from the dazzling sunlight outside.
After reading the book, she raised her head and saw that the sunlight mottled the floor tiles on the windowsill, which were dazzling, and the air conditioner in the room was a little low, and after staying for a long time, the pores were cold and shrunk.
Ling Li's heart was itching, she limped open the door, took two breaths of the dry and hot air outside, and enjoyed the feeling of the sun warming her cold skin, which was very pleasant.
The summer afternoon breeze is the most pleasant, and the height of the eighteenth floor is just right, and you can see the largest and heaviest sky in front of you.
When I looked down, I saw a row of bamboo shadows next to the community, and two figures in the distance, which were very familiar.
Ling Li didn't see it very clearly, her eyes were empty, and she was about to lean out of the balcony.
It seemed to be Wei Wei, the tall back on the other side, but it didn't look like Nan Zhiyi.
She didn't wear glasses, and she poked her neck and looked at it with her eyes open for a while, only to feel that she couldn't see more and more clearly.
Suddenly reacted, and at this time, it should be with the help of external forces......
In just a second, she ran back to the house and grabbed the glasses on the coffee table, and returned to the balcony in a few seconds, but the figure by the bamboo forest just now had disappeared.
Only then did I realize that I was too anxious to take care of the injured right foot just now, and I was on the ground just now, and it was painful at this time.
She squatted down with her teeth bared and rubbed her ankles, silently scolding "mentally retarded" in her heart.
When did you get caught up in this suspicious and suspicious problem? Who Wei Wei is with and who Nan Zhiyi is with has nothing to do with her.
Even if Wei Wei and other men hugged and hugged each other and were suspected of bringing a green hat to Nan Zhiyi, they would not run to this community to commit a crime against the wind.
Even if Wei Wei really stepped on two boats, it was not her business.
All she had to do was take care of herself
Yesterday, I said to Sister Shuang that when this work is over, find a small house and move out, stay away from him, focus on work, and live a good life.
Also, the investigation of the case nine years ago is time to start again.
The pain in her feet gradually subsided, Ling Li stood up and clenched her palms, a little clear in her mind.
————
Although Ling Li did not accept many interviews with reporters, and although she really did not want to be popular, the victim's lawyer played a major role in the trial and led to ironclad evidence of the defendant's crime.
Many people in the lawyer industry are unfamiliar with her name, and they are even more surprised to know that she is a rookie who has just been practicing for two years.
And some veteran lawyers, when they see the words "Zhu Jinchuan" following Ling Li's name, they generally have an enlightened expression.
Although Zhu Jinchuan's name has been forgotten by people in the criminal defense circle over the years, and Qin Xinghai's case did not have any waves last year, there will always be people who remember his feat of winning five innocences and more than a dozen non-prosecutions in one year.
It seems that this is a famous way to praise his own apprentices.
As a result, the cover letters and resumes received by Chengda were suddenly several times more than usual, and there were really some novice lawyers with good quality.
The choice between a lawyer and a law firm is a two-way street. After an interview, it seemed that all of a sudden, there were more than a dozen new colleagues in the firm.
Ling Li also became famous all of a sudden, and even a consulting company named her surname, hoping that when the barrister Zhu went to the company to guide the business, he would bring Ling Xiao with him.
Hong Kong Zhen, even if Ling Li emerges, it is also in the criminal field, and the companies in the industrial port of the industrial incubation park of scientific and technological innovation enterprises are really not related, and I don't know why the CEOs are so curious.
However, such a harmless request, Zhu Jinchuan is generally satisfied, taking the little girl out to see the world, and seeing a few more CEOs is also exercise.
After doing this a few times, the effect is still obvious, at least Ling Li will no longer be like before, exposing his shortcomings of not being good at communicating with people without concealment, now shaking hands, talking, and greetings are all the same, and his words and deeds are more confident, and he no longer sees the previous stiffness.
Ling Li cherishes these opportunities as always, and works hard every time, even if Zhu Jinchuan clearly tells her that she is here to go through the motions, she has to do her homework in advance, for fear of showing timidity.
When she returned to the office from the industrial park in the south of the city, she was about to discuss the next work arrangement with Zhu Jinchuan, and as soon as she opened her mouth to say half a word, her stomach suddenly gurgled.
It just happened that the car stopped, the music just stopped, and I wish Jinchuan's car, the sound insulation effect is too good.
In the silent space, the loud noise that revealed the most basic needs of human beings was so great that Zhu Jinchuan couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.
Enough humiliation is enough, and this is nothing. Ling Li pretended to be calm, pretending that it wasn't her who was grumbling with hunger just now.
Zhu Jinchuan shook his head with a smile, didn't turn his face to look at her, and asked directly, "Hungry?" What do you want to eat? ”
Because there was enough time and there was no arrangement in the afternoon, Zhu Jinchuan took Ling Li to eat a seafood barbecue.
Seafood is one of Ling Li's favorites in her recipes, and although the seafood in Funan can't catch up with the freshness of the coast, it is enough for her less picky taste buds.
She ate to her heart's content, and for the first time in these days, she was able to slow down and eat a good meal.
Zhu Jinchuan also changed his previous style of eating very fast, and slowly peeled the shrimp, not in a hurry at all.
After eating a plate of minced garlic shrimp, Ling Li put down her chopsticks and found that there was a tall garbage pile next to her plate, and she was embarrassed.
The height of her side is almost twice that of Zhu Jinchuan's.
Zhu Jinchuan also saw it, and didn't forget to joke with her: "There is a saying that there is nothing left to eat, I think you can actually consider taking a seat."
After that, he smiled faintly, beckoned the waiter, and cleaned up the table.
Being ridiculed by him for eating too much and doing less, Ling Li was a little surprised, and suddenly remembered Xie Keer's meals.
A few times, I ate so unwillingly, and as a result, I got into trouble that I shouldn't have caused.
The trickiest thing is that she still seems to owe Sheker a date that has not been fulfilled. Moreover, Xie Keer made it clear that day, he wanted Ling Li to reply.
At that time, she didn't have the heart to refuse, and the longer it dragged on, the more she felt that she didn't know what form to say.
Zhu Jinchuan peeled a shrimp, and looked at her eyebrows with light frost, and frowned: "What's wrong?" Not tasty? Or is Master unhappy when he jokes about you? ”
Ling Li hurriedly shook her head: "No." ”
"Then what are you worried about? Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold. ”
Ling Li bit her lip and looked at Zhu Jinchuan.
The person in front of her, whom she respects as Master, not only has far more professional knowledge than her, but also has a wealth of experience in his private life.
has been in love and divorced, and it seems that there are a lot of peach blossoms in her usual life, so she should be the one who can answer her questions.
The most important thing is that he has seen her embarrassed many times. was pulled by the party's hair, drove the defendant crazy, slapped into a pig's head by the victim's family, hid in the corner and cried like a fool, it seemed that more than 90% of her embarrassing moments were seen by Zhu Jinchuan.
So she has no face to speak of in front of him for a long time, and no matter how embarrassing the question is, she can ask it.
Well, that's it!
She silently pondered the wording in her mind, and after a few minutes, she asked, "Master, how can you refuse the kindness of others without harming them?" Zhu Jinchuan's hand peeling shrimp paused, raised his eyes, and looked at her deeply: "You first honestly explain who 'others' are." ”
One sentence pinched Ling Li's seven inches.
Ling Li frowned sadly, and didn't dare to say Xie Ke'er's name for a while.
After Zhu Jinchuan finished eating the shrimp, he grabbed a handful of snails and put them on the plate, and ate them slowly.
For a long time, he didn't wait for Ling Li to speak.
"Forget it, I'm afraid that you won't be able to ask me an answer, and running to Lu Xiaoxiao to come up with a ghost idea will make things worse."
accidentally guessed the matter by Zhu Jinchuan again, she just thought that Zhu Jinchuan didn't want to reply to her about this mess that might be meaningless in his opinion, and she really wanted to go to Lu Xiaoxiao to ask.
Zhu Jinchuan looked at her eyes and knew that he was once again in a word, shook his head, and said, "Lu Xiaoxiao's advice to you must follow your feelings, I don't agree too much." I think that if you hesitate between rejection and fear of hurting others, it proves that your attitude is not so resolute. Why not want to think about it and give it a try? ”
"Try it?" Ling Li's eyes widened, "But I don't feel it, how can I try?" ”
"And how do you feel?" Zhu Jinchuan smiled lightly, "I'll be honest, don't be sad, you are at your age, you are not suitable for the middle school student who talks about everything in love, Xie Keer is very good, if you miss this village, there will be no such store." ”
Ling Li almost choked to death with her own saliva, and it took a long time before she stammered and asked, "You, you, you...... How do you know it's him? ”
"It's so obvious," he said with a laugh, "it's rare to have someone who is so blind, and it's natural to be impressed, not to mention that you have someone around you who only sells his teammates." ”
Ling Li was speechless, Zhu Jinchuan had a vicious mouth, and she lost three people at once, not to mention, she was naturally the one who was the most damaged.
She didn't know what to say, and Zhu Jinchuan was inexplicably in a better mood when she saw her deflated.
He put down his chopsticks, tapped his fingers on the tabletop, and said in a soft voice: "What my master has done, not only has to preach and receive karma to solve doubts, but also have to listen to the little girl's thoughts and fulfill the obligations of the aunt of the neighborhood committee. Well, you tell me, what do you think is wrong about him? Do you hate the way he looks? ”
Ling Li hurriedly shook her head: "No, I never judge people by their appearance." ”
Zhu Jinchuan pursed his lips: "Is that disgusting him for his low education?" ”
Ling Li was even more anxious to take a stand: "At my level, how can I have the confidence to dislike others?" I'm not a high-achieving student like you who graduated from Imperial Capital University, so it's good if others don't think I'm stupid. ”
She hugged Zhu Jinchuan for a while without a trace, and he felt a little more comfortable in his heart, and seemed to smile: "Then you just dislike his family for having too much money?" ”
"Poof!" Ling Li's eyes widened, "I'm fine, isn't it a good thing to have more money?" ”
Zhu Jinchuan nodded: "So, he doesn't have any shortcomings that you can't bear, your so-called no feeling, but it's just that it wasn't love at first sight, understand?" I may inevitably be a little prejudiced, after all, he is a big customer, but from the perspective of business dealings and my cold eyes as a man, Mr. Xiao Xie should be okay. ”
Ling Li nodded ignorantly, looking at his eyebrows with a faint smile, she had a hot brain for a while, and said something bold: "Then if you are a woman, do you think that Mr. Xiao Xie is reliable?" ”
