Chapter 120: See the Old Man Again
In the mountains at night, some strange cries are often heard, Peng Fei said that she was afraid, Xiao Mo slept outside the tent all night, also afraid that something would happen to Peng Fei.
Liu Yu was also frightened all night, she always likes to think crankily, this has not changed, this is not a question of trust or distrust, it is Xiao Mo who went on a business trip with Peng Fei but did not tell her, which made her very insecure.
Liu Yu has always been like this, her sense of security all comes from Xiao Mo, she believes every word Xiao Mo says, but she is afraid that Xiao Mo will not tell her anything.
didn't sleep all night, Liu Yu got up early in the morning and called Xiao Mo again, but there was still no one to connect, so Liu Yu turned off his mobile phone and went to the company.
Although she occasionally gets distracted at work, she also tries to restrain herself and prevent herself from bringing her emotions to work.
During the lunch break, Liu Yu turned on her mobile phone, and there was still no news from Xiao Mo, she silently told herself that she would give Xiao Mo another ten minutes, and if he called, it would be as if nothing had happened.
Ten minutes seemed extraordinarily long, Liu Yu closed her eyes and felt the passage of time, until the alarm clock rang ten minutes later, and her mobile phone still did not receive any calls.
Liu Yu was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "It must be very busy, then I'll give you another ten minutes......"
Another ten minutes passed......
Liu Yu decided to give Xiao Mo another ten minutes.
……
Liu Yu finally spent a full two hours of lunch break waiting for Xiao Mo's phone call, but in the end, except for the alarm clock ringing every ten minutes, Liu Yu's mobile phone did not make any other sound.
"Business trip! Business trip! Don't even have time to make a phone call after two days of business trip? Liu Yu probably ran out of patience and slammed his phone on the table.
But the moment he fell, the mobile phone suddenly rang, Liu Yu hurriedly picked up the phone, but his eyes were soon filled with loss.
"Manager, what's the matter?"
"There is a case in the afternoon that you need to come forward to solve it." The manager said.
"What kind of case, do you have to let me go?" Liu Yu is probably in no mood to work now, although she keeps telling herself that she can't bring her emotions to work, which is a sign of disrespect for work, but after something really happened, she found that people's emotions are really not controlled by the brain.
She was also afraid that her emotions would affect her work and others, so she asked her manager if she wanted her to go.
"This customer is very important, if there are no special circumstances, it is better for you to go."
Liu Yu was thinking about what kind of important customers would let the manager personally designate someone to solve it.
"Okay, I'll go as soon as I'm ready." Liu Yu thought for a while, since the manager appointed her to go, she must trust her, so she can't live up to this trust because of herself, and at the same time, she also wants to use high-intensity work to temporarily numb herself and not think nonsense.
Then the manager met Secretary Shi to meet Liu Yu and informed Liu Yu of the time and place of the meeting.
"Secretary Shi, aren't you coming with me?"
Liu Yu began to think that the manager would let Secretary Shi go with him, but Secretary Shi planned to leave after telling Liu Yu about this, so he was stopped by Liu Yu.
"I'll be working on another case with my manager this afternoon, so I can't go with you."
Liu Yu began to lose confidence in herself again, and she was afraid that if she didn't handle it well, it would bring trouble to the law firm and the client.
"Believe in yourself." Secretary Shi saw Liu Yu's anxiety and comforted him.
Liu Yu nodded, then took his things and set off.
The client's appointment was also very strange, and it was at the café next to the law firm.
"It's so close, why don't you just go to the law firm?" Liu Yu originally thought it was far away, and opened the navigation to prepare to give it to the taxi driver when the time came, but as soon as he left the law firm, he saw the café.
Liu Yu walked in and took a look, as if he had been chartered, and there was no one in the café.
Liu Yu walked to the position and sat down, waiting for the very important client.
After about ten minutes, someone walked to Liu Yu and sat down, but Liu Yu looked out the window and was distracted, and didn't notice that there was already someone sitting on the other side.
The person sitting down straightened his tie, and then tapped the table lightly twice, and Liu Yu came back to his senses.
When she saw the person opposite, she was startled again, and looked left and right at the entire café, and there were only two of them, who should be her client.
"Fang... Sheng? Liu Yu was stunned for a moment before asking.
The person sitting opposite was her best friend, but she had not heard from her after graduation, and this encounter caught Liu Yu off guard.
"It's you, I thought who could make Mr. Yi personally ask me to help." Fang Sheng still looks very relaxed, but his temperament is very different from before.
In the past, Fang Sheng was dressed in sportswear, handsome but a little naughty, but at this moment, Fang Sheng, who was sitting opposite Liu Yu, although he still had an approachable smiling face, he had a very special mature temperament, and a well-cut suit outlined his slender figure, just like the male protagonist who came out of the comics.
Liu Yu was still immersed in Fang Sheng's sudden appearance, but he seemed to mention Mr. Yi, the manager of the law firm, just now.
"Do you know Manager Yi?" Liu Yu asked after sorting out his emotions.
"Not only do we know each other, but he and I are brothers from birth to death." Fang Sheng took a sip of coffee and returned.
"Recognize... Then why didn't he come in person, and what happened to you and you need a lawsuit. ”
"You're still the same anxious as before, let's wait a little longer." Fang Sheng smiled, there was still a ruffian in his smile, but it lacked the previous innocence, and Liu Yu felt that he had changed, as if he was hiding a lot of things, making it difficult for people to get close.
Both of them were silent, not knowing how to speak or what to say when they spoke.
Saying 'long time no see' seems too old-fashioned, saying 'how are you doing lately?' is a very rusty greeting, and they used to be friends who talked about everything, but now it has become a long time to think about a word before it can be spoken.
So both of them were silent, feeling the strange and familiar each other when they met again a year later.
In the end, Fang Sheng broke the silence first, but it was so formal that it made people's hearts sour, and he asked: "You seem to have more temperament than before." ”
This is Fang Sheng's words from the heart, from the time he walked to sit down opposite Liu Yu, he only had the girl looking out the window in his eyes, and it was also the girl he liked to the core, but he used the most natural way to hide his excitement after seeing Liu Yu.
Liu Yu smiled and said, "You are also more mature than before." ”
They all said before, their memories of each other are only before, after the graduation party, Fang Sheng chose to say goodbye and came to City B, no one knows him here, he wants to start over, forget Liu Yu, and end the love that was only him from beginning to end.
But what he didn't expect was that the more people he tried his best to forget, the more unforgettable they were.
When they were about to forget, fate linked them together again, and it was really a coincidence that they met again.
In fact, Liu Yu had too many questions to ask Fang Sheng, wanted to ask him why he didn't say goodbye, and wanted to ask him how he had a good year, or say sorry to him, but in the end they all turned into laughter and silence.
Just when the two were silent, Manager Yi and Secretary Shi walked over.
Manager Yi naturally put his hand on Shang Sheng's shoulder and said, "Boss Fang, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”
Fang Sheng smiled and patted Manager Yi's back, looking like a very familiar friend.
Only Liu Yu was stunned and didn't know what was going on, and after Manager Yi sat down, Liu Yu asked, "Manager, what's going on?" Do you know? ”
"Today is a test for you, I specially asked this kid Fang Sheng to help." Manager Yi said.
"Test?" Liu Yu was still confused.
"It's a solution that the manager has come up with specifically for you, you treat us as your opponent now, and of course you have to do your best to get the most rights and interests for your client in court, so you have to beat us." Secretary Shi explained.
"But ......"
"Okay, you can find out about the situation with your client now, and Secretary Shi is my client, Fang Sheng will tell you the specific situation, and it will officially start in two hours." After Manager Yi finished speaking, he and Secretary Shi sat down at another table.
Liu Yu looked at Fang Sheng at a loss, he hadn't figured out what the situation was until now, and he was about to go through a test.
"What the hell is going on?" Liu Yu had to turn to Fang Sheng for help.
"Lao Yi said yesterday that he was looking for me to do me a favor, saying that all new lawyers in your law firm have the ability but not confidence, let me be a group performer, but I didn't expect him to say you."
"So what am I going to do?"
"Help me win this case." Fang Sheng's words are concise and to the point.
Liu Yu lowered her head, obviously not confident in this internal game at all, after all, she was facing workplace veterans like Manager Yi and Secretary Shi.
"It seems that what Lao Yi said is right, I remember that you were not such a self-confident person when you used to go to school, where did you go to the hard work before?"
Fang Sheng is also the first time to see Liu Yu's cowardly side, no matter what happened before, she was always at the forefront, and Xiao Mo ......
"Because... Shorer? Fang Sheng guessed that there should be no Xiao Mo here, so Liu Yu was so unconfident, although he didn't want to admit it, but I have to say that Xiao Mo's influence on Liu Yu was really great.
Probably Fang Sheng guessed correctly, Liu Yu raised his head and glanced at Fang Sheng, although she didn't say a word, her eyes were enough for Fang Sheng to confirm his guess.
"Lao Yi only gave you two hours, and now there is still an hour and a half, tell me when you think clearly." Fang Sheng said.
