Chapter 149: He Has Changed
"There is a case, there is one at present, but it has not yet been determined, and I will tell you when it is implemented." Zhuo Hang pondered for a moment and quickly replied.
Jiang Zi nodded.
After receiving a positive answer, she diverted the topic and talked to Zhuo Hang about her future plans, back and forth, and made him forget to ask about the divorce some time ago.
This made Jiang Ci's heart fall to the ground quietly.
After eating, she got up to help clean up, but her wife stopped her again and again, "Xiaozi, don't move, I'll come, you go and sit over there." ”
Jiang Ci said, "How can there be a reason to just eat and not work." ”
Zhuo Hang was leisurely, "She was afraid that I would scold her, so she came to sell her well." ”
Jiang Ci stiffened, "I'm afraid that my wife will be tired." ”
Zhuo Hang sneered, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the doorbell ringing, Kankan stopped the topic, walked over and opened the door, "Hey, I'm all together today." ”
As he spoke, he turned sideways to give way, and smiled at Jiang Ci, "Xinghan is also here, don't you two make an appointment in advance, right?" ”
Jiang Ci raised his head, his eyes just happened to meet Lu Xinghan, the other party obviously showed a look of surprise, and then his eyes were full of smiles, "Not this time, it's just that I have something to come to you." ”
He followed Zhuo Hang into the door.
Lu Xinghan was holding a document in his hand, and it seemed that he wanted to ask for advice on work, but he didn't take the initiative to mention it until he sat down on the sofa, but looked at Jiang Ci.
"Little words, you said you were going home a few days ago, why are you still in Beicheng? What's the problem? He said.
“……”
Jiang Ci is hard to speak, after all, living in the Jiang family's old mansion, how can it be difficult to say, she hesitated and didn't say anything, Zhuo Hang had already taken the lead in taking over the conversation, "Go home?" When I go home, Xiaozi will stay in Beicheng and follow me. ”
"I'm old, I don't have much energy, I need help, and she won't be allowed to go anywhere."
That defensive look, as if Lu Xinghan was going to rob him of someone, made him cry and laugh a little, and helplessly explained, "I didn't mean that." ”
Zhuo Hang snorted coldly, "Then what do you mean?" ”
Lu Xinghan, "I just care about her." ”
Inadvertently, the topic just now was also revealed, Jiang Ci's tense heartstrings slowly loosened, and he realized that his palms were sweaty.
She pursed her lips and wiped it off.
Zhuo Hang asked again, "Your law firm is closed, what are you going to do next?" ”
Lu Xinghan paused slightly, and replied, "I am currently looking for a new job in a company, let's start from scratch, by the way, I need to attend a banquet tomorrow, and I don't have a female companion yet, if Xiaozi is free, can you accompany me to attend?" ”
Speaking of the second half of the sentence, his eyes were already on Jiang Ci.
Attending a banquet? It was hard to guarantee that Jiang Jingzhan would not be seen, and when the time came, Jiang Ci shook his head directly, "I still have something to do tomorrow, and I may not be able to participate." ”
Lu Xinghan seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and smiled gently, "Okay, it's okay." ”
I don't know why, Jiang Ci felt uncomfortable since he appeared, and she stayed for about ten minutes, she finally got up and said, "Master, it suddenly occurred to me that there is still something to be done, so I will go back first, and I will come to see you another day." ”
Knowing that she was really fine, Zhuo Hang didn't ask Jiang Ci to stay any longer, "Okay, pay attention to safety on the road, and if you dare not answer the phone, you won't recognize me in the future." ”
Jiang Ci sneered, "Where do you dare." ”
"Go, go, don't be an eyesore in front of me." Zhuo Hang waved.
Jiang Ci left from the good.
The door closed gently, and Lu Xinghan's gaze paused for a few seconds before slowly retracting, and there were dark clouds gathering under his eyes, but they were quickly suppressed.
When he looked up, Zhuo Hang knocked on the table and said, "Show me the information." ”
Lu Xinghan acted according to his words, and said in his mouth, "How do you know the purpose of my coming." ”
Zhuo Hang replied while looking through the information, "You can be regarded as having nothing to do now, it is rare to come here, and you still have the documents, of course there is something." ”
As he spoke, his face changed, he raised his head and looked at Lu Xinghan and said, "This case is something I was about to take on recently, what do you have to do with it?" ”
Previously, Zhuo Hang said that he would do it with Jiang Ci, and it was this case.
This case is simple to say, but it is actually difficult, it is a commercial dispute case, the defendant is Shanda Group, and the plaintiff is a joint effort of multiple clients.
They wanted to sue Shanda for breach of contract and infringement, and they also paid bribes.
If this case really starts to fight, then it will definitely attract the attention of the public, after all, on a grand scale, anything that happens is enough to become a topic of conversation after dinner.
And if this case is won, it will also be very beneficial for the lawyer.
Lu Xinghan straightened up, put his hands on his knees, he looked at Zhuo Hang, and said slowly, "You should have seen that there is information about Shanda's performance of the contract, and the purpose of my coming today is to ask you not to take this case." ”
Zhuo Hang realized something, and his face turned pale.
Lu Xinghan continued, "Although on the surface, Shanda's chances of winning are very small, what I can tell you is that there is at least an 80% chance that this case will be lost, and when the time comes, not only will you lose your reputation, but you will also offend people because of it." ”
Zhuo Hang's eyes showed anger, "In your eyes, I am this kind of person who sells my reputation? ”
"Of course not." Lu Xinghan said, "But you should also take care of your relatives and friends around you, shouldn't you?" ”
He didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning of his words, I think he also knows that if Zhuo Hang offends those forces, who knows if they will be angry with others.
There was a sudden silence.
The sound of "whooshing" water in the kitchen is very clear.
In this quiet, my wife poked her head out and asked with a smile, "Xinghan, I have the watermelon I just bought at home, do you want to try it?" ”
Lu Xinghan didn't look unusual, "No need, I just finished eating, wait for next time." ”
The master said, "That's a pity. ”
Just as they were talking, Zhuo Hang's hands clenched into fists, and after a long time, he suddenly asked, "Is the company you are joining now Shanda?" What position are you over there? These things are not available to ordinary employees. ”
"It's just an ordinary lawyer." Lu Xinghan said calmly, "The reason why I can get it is just because I need it." ”
Zhuo Hang sneered.
Lu Xinghan didn't care, and continued, "Teacher, the current Shanda lawyer team is all useless waste, you might as well come to Shanda, with your ability, you can definitely lead the whole team." ”
Shanda's first-class lawyer, that salary, I'm afraid most people dream of.
Zhuo Hang stared at Lu Xinghan, and suddenly found that the person he thought he was familiar with seemed to have suddenly become strange, and under that gentle face, there seemed to be a bitter indifference.
It made him feel palpitations.
I don't know how long it took, Zhuo Hang asked slowly, "What if I refuse?" ”
A pun on the phrase is both a rejection of the olive branch he threw and a rejection of his offer to give up.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xinghan didn't have many mood swings, but put away the information and said in a casual tone, "The teacher is unwilling, of course I won't force it." ”
"None of the plaintiffs' families are clean, and as long as there is enough time, they can naturally be resolved."
He didn't hide his thoughts at all.
At this moment, Zhuo Hang seemed to see the gentle young man in his memory completely disappear from him, and was replaced by a businessman immersed in deceit.
At the beginning, he thought he knew, did he really understand?
Zhuo Hang couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, and at the same time, he also clearly realized that even if he didn't admit defeat and took the case by force, he was afraid that he would lose in the end.
Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh, "Okay, I promise." ”
It's just a pity that she originally wanted to fight this lawsuit with Xiaozi, but if she succeeds, then her name will be completely out, and she will be able to gain a firm foothold in the lawyer circle.
At that time, whether you go to work in another law firm or want to open your own law firm, there is no problem.
Lu Xinghan got the answer he wanted, and finally showed his first smile when he came here today, "Thank you, teacher, don't worry, when this matter passes, I will definitely find you another one." ”
"There's no need." Zhuo Hang said coldly, "I haven't fallen to the point of relying on your charity. ”
Lu Xinghan said, "Not really, it's just that it's a resource exchange ......."
"Get out of here!" Zhuo Hang couldn't listen anymore, he got up suddenly, pointed in the direction of the door, "Hurry up and get out of here, don't come to my house in the future." ”
Lu Xinghan's face remained unchanged, "Teacher, why bother? ”
Zhuo Hang jumped to his feet angrily, "I don't understand people's words, do I'll let you go, and then talk nonsense, I'm going to drive you out with a broom in person?" ”
The eviction order was clear, Lu Xinghan was bored if he stayed, he slowly bowed his head, and before leaving, he said, "Okay, if you have something in the future, you can find me at any time." ”
In response to him, it was Zhuo Hang's snort, "Shut up, disappear from my eyes immediately." ”
Lu Xinghan left quickly.
The master walked out of the kitchen quickly, a little dazed by the sudden quarrel, she subconsciously wanted to chase, but was stopped by Zhuo Hang, "You stop!" ”
She paused, looked left and right, hurriedly walked to Zhuo Hang's side, and asked, "What's the matter, it was okay just now." ”
Zhuo Hang opened his mouth, but he didn't spit out a word, there was no need to let her know about those bad things, at the end, he only gritted his teeth and said, "You will have less contact with him in the future, and if you meet, you should only not know him." ”
"Why?" My wife was strange.
"You can just do it anyway." Zhuo Hang was reluctant to say more, "This bastard has changed." ”
Dropping this sentence, Zhuo Hang only felt panicked in his heart, sat on the sofa for a while, got up and went to the study.
The conflict that happened here, Jiang Ci naturally didn't know.
She took a taxi back to the villa, still thinking about her future plan: it is also expedient to find the master to ask for a case now, and she can't always rely on him.
She had to make a name for herself as soon as possible, and then take the commission on her own.
However, before that, whether she went to work in a law firm first, or followed her master Zhuo Hang, which made Jiang Ci unable to make up her mind.
