Chapter 3 Let's talk
Chapter 3: Reunion (3)
"Okay, you Zhong Qing, don't tell me such a big thing?" Zou Tongtong's voice came from the microphone of his mobile phone like a cracked stone, and Zhong Qing couldn't help but have a headache.
"Miss, I'm at work! I'll get back to you later, okay? ”
"Not good! Don't I have a single case in your heart? You have to explain to me why you got entangled with Ji Mingchen again? ”
Zhong Qing took the materials on the table and the laptop to her waist, and walked directly to the reception room with the phone.
"First, I'm working, my case is more important than anything else, and second, please don't put this strange word on me and Ji Mingchen's heads, thank you, Mrs. Wang, I'll call you back later." After speaking, Zhong Qing hung up the phone and walked to the door of the reception room, where the client was waiting.
As a result, after a case was discussed, Zhong Qing had just returned to the office to archive the information, and Zou Tongtong's life-chasing call came again.
"It's almost time to eat, no matter how busy the barrister is, he still has to eat, right? Eh, don't worry, I'm in the western restaurant downstairs, and I'm waiting for you to come after I have already ordered the food. "Such a sweet and caring Zou Tongtong is a rare encounter in a hundred years, even if Zhong Qing is reluctant, there is no reason not to go.
When Zhong Qing entered the door, she saw Zou Tongtong sitting in the most conspicuous position beckoning to her.
Zou Tongtong wore a burgundy silk dress with a pair of ring earrings with pure diamonds, a typical lady look.
"Do you have to dress up like this when you come out to ask for sin?"
"There are so many office buildings here, what if there are good-looking boys?"
Zhong Qing looked disdainful and scolded with a smile: "You have become a wealthy man, and you still want to find a little boy?" What's the matter, Mr. Wang makes you unsatisfied? ”
Zou Tongtong replied: "Satisfied! However, a perfect woman like me always has some residual heat to radiate and contribute to society, and I want to let those fledgling boys know what kind of woman a successful man can have! ”
Zhong Qing has long been accustomed to Zou Tongtong's nonsense, and listened to her "declaration of love" without changing her face.
"Eldest sister, can you do something serious every day? I'm busy! ”
"Look at it, I forgot about business, I heard Xiao Long say, did you see Ji Mingchen?"
"When did you two get along so well?"
"Don't interrupt, ask you!"
"That's right!"
Zou Tongtong slammed his cup on the table, "I thought you were so good?" Isn't it a one-hit collapse? Who was the year before last when he got drunk and hugged me on the street and howled and said, I will never like Ji Mingchen again, I want to forget him and start over? ”
Zhong Qing muttered, "Aren't you drunk?"
"Y-can you make a difference? He left without a sound, causing you to look for so many years, waiting for so many years, and now as soon as he comes back, you will pounce on you, are you worth it? ”
"I met because there was a lawsuit in his company, and I went to be a defense lawyer, so what's wrong with the old classmates getting together for dinner, why are you so embarrassed?"
"Who knows if you have any bad thoughts in your heart?"
"What if there is? I've liked him for so many years. Besides, you know that he left without a word, don't I want to know why? If I ask him now, after nine years, he still doesn't say, how do you let me go? ”
Zou Tongtong's eyes turned red when he saw Zhong Qing talking, and hurriedly persuaded: "Don't get excited, I came to you today just to tell you to know what kind of feelings you have for him, Ji Mingchen He can go away and come back without a sound, knowing that you are looking for him, you can hide it for so many years, I don't care what reason he has, even if he has been greatly wronged, I don't think he is the person you can entrust your life."
Zhong Qing fell into deep thought, and Zou Tongtong continued: "What I said is indeed unfair to Ji Mingchen, but you are my best friend, and I will definitely be on your side." I'm most afraid that you won't be able to tell what love is and what is kindness, and I'm afraid that you will be hurt again. ”
Zhong Qing didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't have the appearance of being in a hurry when he first entered the door, but sat with his head down and his shoulders down, like a wronged kitten.
After a waltz in the café was played, Zhong Qing slowly spoke: "It's love, I'm love for him, I've figured it out a long time ago, and I've thought about this problem before, I think if you put love and grace together, you'll like him more, but then he's gone, what's the point of grace, there's only love left."
"So, as long as I can open the knot in his heart and let him accept me again, my love and kindness will become meaningful."
"What more can I say? The most idealistic Zhong Qing, you really love it,"
"Just praise me, I'll invite you to this meal!"
“……”
"Don't worry, I also know that you are worried that I will be carried away by feelings, but-" Zhong Qing put on a helpless look, "I have been planted in his hands in my life, and I can only move forward with no way back." ”
Zhongning Municipal People's Court.
"Thank you for today!" Ji Mingchen stood up from the dock and expressed his heartfelt thanks to Zhong Qing.
Although Hui Nan became the defendant in this game plagiarism incident, and Ji Mingchen also sat in the dock as a representative, after all, the evidence was conclusive and the reasons were sufficient, and Ji Mingchen still held a 90% chance of winning.
However, when he was 27 years old, it was the first time he had entered the court, and it was inevitable that he would be nervous.
As soon as the judge's gavel struck, Ji Mingchen actually felt a little palpitating.
"The next thing is to go through the process, don't worry, I'm here!" Zhong Qing leaned into Ji Mingchen's ear and said softly.
Ji Mingchen suddenly felt relaxed, because Zhong Qing was upright, his face was calm, and he looked confident, but Zhong Qing's words made him feel a little weird.
How did he become the one to be taken care of?
Of course, the final result was the same as expected, and the Municipal People's Court ruled that the two games Fantasy World and Battlefield Cracks did not have a high degree of similarity, and rejected Tongxiang's claim that the fantasy world should be suspended.
"Thank you for today!"
When Ji Mingchen said this seriously, Zhong Qing didn't know how to answer.
She is a litigator and it is her duty to advocate for her client's interests in court. So when she wins the lawsuit, the party will always really say thank you, in the same scene, even in the same position, this is what she deserves, but polite words still have to be there.
"This is what I should do, and besides, I will do it well anyway."
Ji Mingchen was stunned for a moment, turned his face and said: "This is the company's case, saying that my case is as if I committed a crime."
Zhong Qing smiled helplessly.
Ji Mingchen looked around, the solemn courtroom became the most appropriate background for Zhong Qing in a lawyer's uniform, in fact, at this time, Ji Mingchen suddenly had a feeling like a dream, the Zhong Qing who used to lie on the desk and quietly do the test papers, the Zhong Qing who would blush as soon as he got close, can now argue fiercely in the courtroom and say to Ji Mingchen "Don't worry, I'm here", and even make him feel relieved.
"Zhong Qing, the way you sit in the courtroom and talk is really different."
"Fierce?"
"No, it's maturity." It is a strong but not persecutive aura, and a maturity that gives people a sense of trust.
"And what do you think of how I behaved today?"
"Good, much smoother than I thought."
Zhong Qing blinked slyly, and then asked with a serious face, "Then can I ask for a reward?"
"Yes, you say."
"I'll just ask you a question, and you have to answer it truthfully."
Ji Mingchen knew that he had jumped into the pit, so he simply let Zhong Qing play: "...... You ask! ”
"Are you single?"
"I-" Ji Mingchen's words had already reached his lips, but he suddenly looked around and felt that the atmosphere was strange, "Do I have to answer your question in the dock of the court?" ”
"yes, I still want to sit in the plaintiff's seat and ask you!"
"Don't!" Ji Mingchen couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to reply: "I'll tell you the truth, I'm single."
After speaking, there was a sudden silence between the two.
Zhong Qing laughed out loud, then leaned against the table and picked up the cane he had placed on the side of the table.
The pure black one-legged cane with no pattern is the same as Ji Mingchen's first cane nine years ago.
"Haven't you changed it all along?"
"I've changed it a few times, but I still like this style, so I'm too lazy to pick anything else."
Zhong Qing glanced at Ji Mingchen meaningfully, and the smile on her face deepened.
"Going to dinner?" Ji Mingchen was a little embarrassed, so he changed the topic, just after a lawsuit was over, it was noon.
Zhong Qing shook her head, "It's only eleven o'clock, it's too early." ”
"The road is congested, and it's not too early to get to the restaurant."
"Do you have nothing to talk to with me?" Zhong Qing's eyes darkened.
Ji Mingchen took Zhong Qing to a café not far from the court, and found a place by the window to sit down.
"Then let's have a good talk, I know you have a lot to ask me."
"You're not hiding this time?"
"Don't hide, just like you said, from eighteen to twenty-seven years old, it is your precious nine years," Ji Mingchen smiled bitterly: "That is also my precious nine years."
"yes, nine years, haven't you thought about coming back to me once?"
"I've thought about it, I've thought about it often."
