Ling Li carried the last few bags of garbage downstairs, stacked them next to the trash can next to the building, clapped her hands, and beat her somewhat sore waist, and went upstairs contentedly.

Before she could enter the door, she heard the cries of 1801 Li Mi Li and Gu Li.

As soon as the door opened, the two Wang Xingren threw her to the ground and kissed and licked her, and finally pushed away the two big babies, Ling Li's mouth was full of hair.

Sending the dog back from the park that day, Ling Li really couldn't stand the poor rice grain and Gu Li being with the garbage pile all day long, and after getting Nan Zhiyi's consent on the phone, she began to roll up her sleeves and tidy up the room.

After three days of hard work by Ling Li, Nan Zhiyi's home has changed greatly.

She cleaned the blackened kitchen utensils in the kitchen, threw away the black and green moldy stuff on the stove along with the pot, and cleaned the grocery store-like cupboards and refrigerators.

After dozens of bags of various garbage were thrown out of the living room, a set of Nordic-style sofas finally appeared; The simple glass coffee table was cleaned many times by her with dish soap, and finally it was clear again; After a few days of ventilation, the smell in the house finally disappeared.

Compared with the living room and dining room, Nanzhiyi's study and bedroom are easy to tidy up. Mountains of books can be reorganized in half a day, and bedrooms are simpler, just change the bedding.

As for the wardrobe that she thought would be the main event, Koko, the sloppy king's clothes were thrown and hung everywhere, but the wardrobe was empty and there was nothing.

As for Nan Zhiyi's clothes thrown away, the texture is good, but unfortunately seventy or eighty percent of them have changed color because they have not been washed in time, no wonder he has to borrow clothes to wear when he goes out.

A large bag of clothes that could no longer be worn was thrown out of the door, Ling Li seemed to see a lot of small money turned into butterflies and flew away, although it was not hers, but this bloody scene made her a little unbearable to look at directly.

She walked through the rooms that she had tidied up, and although there were still dirty marks on the walls in some places, it was not spotless, but she was finally able to live in it by her standards, and her heart was full of satisfaction.

Ling Li was still proudly appreciating her results when the doorbell suddenly rang.

She ran to the door, saw Tao Xing standing outside the door through the cat's eye, and hurriedly opened the door.

Before, Tao Xing called her and said that she was going to take care of the plants planted on the terrace on the second floor of Nan Zhiyi's house, and Ling Li had been waiting for her.

Entering the door, Tao Xing first greeted Ling Li, and when she saw the scene behind her clearly, she stood in place with her eyes wide open and her mouth slightly open.

After a while, Tao Xing looked down at the two dogs smelling her trouser legs, and then raised her eyes to look at Ling Li steadily, her voice was full of incredulity: "I didn't make a mistake, right?" This is 1801, not 1802? ”

Ling Li understood where her surprise came from, and said with a smile: "That's right, it's 1801, you didn't get lost." ”

Then when I looked down and saw Tao Xing holding a mask against heavy toxic haze in her hand, I couldn't help laughing: "You are really wearing a gas mask!" ”

Momo-apricot glanced at the pocket she was carrying in her hand and laughed.

This burst of laughter swept away the previous strangeness between the two. Tao Xing first visited the first floor, and then went up the stairs to the terrace, shouting and sighing.

Ling Li pointed to the neat terrace: "You Teacher Nan said not to touch his plants, I didn't dare to touch them at all, I checked the guardrail several times a day, for fear that Mi Li and Guli would make trouble." ”

Tao Xing had a helpless expression: "Teacher Nan doesn't worry about anything, but only cares about Mi Li, Gu Li and his flowers and plants." ”

Ling Li was a little amused: "Yes, I thought he was planting some kind of precious plant, but it turned out to be a triangular plum, a moon season or something, and these are also worth your special trip once a week?" ”

Tao Xing turned her head and smiled at her, revealing two cute tiger teeth: "In the past, when the teacher was not there, it was all poured with the help of Teacher Tian at the door, but Teacher Tian went to Japan to visit relatives this week, so I came instead." ”

Ling Li suddenly remembered the beautiful picture behind the 1802 gate that day, and subconsciously asked: "Visiting relatives in Japan?" Visiting your parents? ”

Tao Xing shook her head: "No, his lover went to study for a doctorate in April, because the children were too young to leave their mothers, and they also took two twin sons." I heard that the private university course is very tight, and I didn't come back during the summer vacation, and it was hard for the family to reunite once in half a year. ”

Tao Xing was gossiping, watering, pruning, and loosening the soil, and it was all done in ten minutes.

She put down the tools in her hand, clapped her hands and said goodbye to Ling Li: "Okay, complete the task, it's time for me to go back to school." ”

He looked at her again, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Why is your face pale and your spirit is not good, is it sick? ”

While speaking, she touched Ling Li's forehead with one hand, put one hand on her forehead, and muttered, "No fever?" ”

Ling Li came back to her senses, pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled at her: "It's nothing, maybe I'm a little tired." ”

Tao Xing had a look of understanding on her face, and nodded solemnly: "Yes, it is really a great feat to be able to clean up Teacher Nan's house." ”

Sending Tao Xing out, Ling Li stood at the door, biting her lip and looking at the house number of 1802, resentment rolling in.

Sure enough, it wasn't that she thought too much about it that day, and the scene she saw was indeed an extramarital affair that couldn't be seen.

Irresponsible men and frivolous women, in the name of love first, staged a drama of male thieves and prostitutes, because of their own desires do not hesitate to involve their families in the whirlpool, and even cause tragedy.

She had ever seen the most tragic one, and the scene in front of her had just begun.

I don't know what kind of attitude the women and children on the other side of the ocean will end up with after they know that their efforts and watchfulness have been betrayed?

Ling Li was immersed in the huge whirlpool of memories of the past, but the ringtone of her mobile phone pulled her back to reality. Looking at the caller ID on the mobile phone screen, she was a little nervous, and after a moment of hesitation, she answered.

"Hey, hello." There was still some weakness in her heart, Ling Li tried her best to control her voice steadily, and she didn't sound timid.

When she heard what the person on the phone said to her, Ling Li opened her mouth slightly, not knowing how to respond to her.

In just one minute, the phone hung up, and there was a beep at the end of the call, and Ling Li hadn't come back to his senses.

She was stunned for a moment, then flipped out her phone to check the number. That's right, the phone call just now was indeed from Zhu Jinchuan.

Zhu Jinchuan said straight to the point, hoping that she would go back to the office to continue to deal with Qu Jia's case, and as for the future, I will wait until this case is completed.

Ling Li was a little hesitant in her heart, and it was easy to have the courage to take a step, but in fact, nothing changed, just because Zhu Jinchuan's attitude improved, she hid back again, and she was unwilling to think about it.

However, Qu Jia's case is like a boulder in front of her, if she goes around it like this, I am afraid that she will be even more unwilling to think about it in the future.

At night, Ling Li finished walking the dog, packed up all the supplies that were easy to be torn by the dog, said goodbye to Mi Li and Guli, locked the door and walked home.

Along the way, she frowned and pondered whether to return to the Chengda Office, and her heart was wavering, not knowing where to go.

It was early winter, and a gust of wind was blowing, and the leaves rustled.

Ling Li shuddered, woke up from a state like a dream, tightened the thin coat on her body, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the wood hibiscus planted on the side of the road.

This is the most common greening plant in the capital, tall and vigorous trees, rough leaves, to the flowering season but suddenly bright and bright, the branches are decorated with hibiscus flowers from pink and white to dark rose, and the petals are like the newly woven Shu brocade, which blooms brilliantly and dazzlingly.

Hibiscus, also known as the frost-resisting flower, blooms before and after the frost, and in the season when other flowers gradually wither, it suddenly becomes fresh and beautiful, adding a bit of charm to the hazy city at night.

The scene in front of her finally aroused Ling Li's sensitivity to the season. She sighed, it turned out that it had passed the frost. In this way, the time for the trial of Zhong Chengheng's case is getting closer and closer.

Eight years and five trials have never been able to give her a definite answer, nor can she let her family who has been sleeping underground really rest in peace.

Ling Li stopped, biting her lip and looking at the hibiscus flowers dotted with dense branches, the swaying scale in her heart finally fell to the side completely.

The facts of the case are obviously more important than her small self-esteem.

If even she lets it go and lets the truth of the case sink into a mess, then in this indifferent and cold world, what should I do to comfort Xiao Yuzi, who left with hatred before life has even begun, and what reason is there for Qu Jia, who fell into madness and despair, to wake up again.

In the end, I decided to finish the case first, and made an explanation of my professional ethics as a lawyer and my inner conscience.

That night, in a hotel in the imperial capital, which is more than 2,000 kilometers away from the capital, Tian Zhengyan sat on the couch opposite the desk outside the suite, holding a stack of A4 paper printed materials in his hand.

What he held in his hand was the case information that Ling Li had represented since she started her career, and he sorted out how she messed up one by one, there was still room to make up for it, and how she missed the opportunity again and again.

He looked at one by one and smiled, and he looked very gloating.

Nan Zhiyi behind the desk rubbed his ears, raised his head and looked impatient: "Aunt Tian, can you speak quietly?" I'm revising my paper, my brain cells are dying, and my ears are tormented by your broken thoughts? ”

Tian Zhengyan easily stopped laughing, stood up Erlang's legs and said to him: "These are the cases that Ling Li has handled, and each of them can be used as a negative teaching material to educate the newcomers in the law firm well, and she has made almost all the mistakes she can make." ”

Nan Zhiyi frowned, looking confused: "Who are you talking about?" Who is Ling Li? I don't seem to know each other. ”

Tian Zhengyan choked on these words, and after a while, he shook his head and said, "You don't remember her name?" Isn't that your little pink! ”

"Oh!" Nan Zhiyi understood, but after a second, he began to emphasize with an unhappy face: "It's a pink girl, not a pink one." I've said it many times, can you remember it longer! ”

Tian Zhengyan smiled and didn't care about him, and said, "Your little pink is really stupid to a new level." In terms of civil litigation, the client can be allowed to leave the house after signing the agreement; In the field of administrative litigation, the parties can sue for non-actionable administrative acts such as land requisition announcements, without a little brain. Isn't the only case that is handled well is to rely on you to crush the other party's appraisal conclusions?

You went on a day trip to the court on a whim, and this little lawyer probably thought that he could get it out of his mind, and in the next criminal case, he made his own decisions and stimulated the defendant to the point of insanity. ”

Hearing this, Nan Zhiyi finally frowned: "I thought she was just running around like a headless fly with no one, but it turned out to be really incorrigibly stupid?" So, I'm still fighting for the tiger? ”

Tian Zhengyan rolled his eyes and threw it over: "What do you think?" The client was going to lose the case, but now the settlement result is not bad, the little lawyer's confidence has risen and he has taken advantage of the victory to pursue, and without communicating with the director of the law firm, he privately asks some questions about the client's privacy, and he drives people crazy back and forth, so he resigns. ”

Nan Zhiyi shook his head, lowered his eyes and stared at the paper in his hand and began to look: "People are stupid, they can't blame the knife for being blunt, it's better to be a lawyer and change careers as soon as possible, so as not to harm others and yourself." With her strength, it is more appropriate to move bricks. ”

Tian Zhengyan raised his eyebrows with some surprise: "You can actually be so venomous?" Also, didn't you say I should take care of it? I'm in charge of everything, and I'm sure I'll be able to let her go back to the place where she worked before, but as a result, you have this attitude now? ”

Nan Zhiyi didn't even raise his eyelids, and habitually opened his mouth at Tian Daniu: "Didn't you let you leave it alone?" You have nothing to do yourself, do you blame me? However, you have retired to the rivers and lakes for so many years, and your face is still so big, and sure enough, the man's face is full of food. ”

Tian Zhengyan was angry for a while. It's not that he has to take care of this matter for a long time, the key is that it's rare for Nan Zhiyi to remember a person, he helped to the end, and he was still disliked by Nan Zhiyi, a person who has no memory and no conscience?

Thankfully, though, he stayed behind.

Tian Zhengyan cleared his throat and said, "Make it clear, it's you who has a big face." I never showed up from beginning to end, I just pulled the tiger skin as a big flag, but I still used the one you played for the tiger. ”

After that, Tian Zhengyan smiled even more happily: "I just found someone to reveal it to Zhu Jinchuan, the director of Chengda Law Firm, and said that you seem to be interested in the little lawyer, and through her, you can quickly locate Professor Nan, who is not the head of the dragon." I wish Jinchuan how smart a person is, how can you let go of your thick thigh? will definitely try her best to coax her back with good words, and maybe, there will be a chance for a salary increase. ”

Nan Zhiyi was speechless for a long time when he choked on him, threw away the pen in his hand for a while, and said angrily: "You love to make my rumors!" If it weren't for you, how would I have been single for so many years? ”

Tian Zhengyan began to laugh again: "The reason why you have been single for many years, you should find it from yourself." Couples who dislike each other and don't like to be clean, and break up because the family is too chaotic to live in, in the world, I have never heard of the second couple other than you and Wei Wei. ”

was trampled on a sore foot, Nan Zhiyi uncovered his scars with a tooth for a tooth: "I scolded my wife to the point that I would rather go abroad to study for a doctorate than hang up in my husband's name and be lazy and mess with my degree, except for you Tian Daniu, I haven't heard of the second one." ”

Tian Zhengyan's face sank, he picked up the coffee in front of him and drank it all, and he didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.
