"What mistakes men make? Tell me, which men have made mistakes? She looked at Chen Mu menacingly. He continued: "When did you alone represent all men? How did I not know that men love to cheat? ”

Chen Mu didn't expect that what he just said casually would actually anger Ji Ning. He frowned, his voice softened, and said, "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to tell you that cheating is not the main reason for their divorce, it's ......"

He couldn't say what it was, and what he said casually was like lying to himself, and he had to cover it up with a hundred or more lies. It's a pity that Chen Mu couldn't even think of the second lie, so he could only look at Ji Ning speechlessly.

At this time, Ji Ning's temper had also subsided, knowing that Chen Mu didn't mean to say such things to stimulate her, but she also knew that Chen Mu would blurt out, which meant that Chen Mu was thinking like this in his heart.

I can't see that Chen Mu is also machismo, and he actually thinks that cheating is a normal thing. It was because she still didn't give Chen Mu a good look.

"So what was the reason for their divorce? Personality incompatibility? Disharmony in the love life of husband and wife? Even if there is no reason, people want to divorce, can we outsiders manage it? Ji Ning said indignantly.

She felt that it was a wrong choice to come to see Chen Mu today, and she was so angry that Chen Mu's righteous image in her mind disappeared.

Saying that, Ji Ning turned on her phone irritably, pretending to be watching current affairs news, and no longer continued to chat with Chen Mu. Because she was afraid that if she continued to talk, she couldn't help but want to leave the table.

She remembered that Xiao Li had asked her if she wanted to go out shopping together today, she was still driving at the time, and she thought that Chen Mu was looking for her for something very important, so she politely refused.

Now Ji Ning regrets it very much, if there were friends nearby, then it would be much easier for her to get out, at least the reason would not be too far-fetched. She glanced up at Chen Mu with no interest, and saw a trace of embarrassment on his face.

Presumably Chen Mu didn't want to make the atmosphere so embarrassing just after they met, Ji Ning sighed secretly, and chose to turn off his phone. So she didn't know that at the moment when the phone screen went black, Xiao Li sent her a message.

Xiao Li, who finally escaped from Ye Shaochen's "claws", still had palpitations on the way home, and was also worried about Ji Ning. Ye Shaochen asked for Ji Ning's positioning, obviously to arrest her.

Xiao Li hesitated for a long time, weighing whether he wanted to listen to Ye Shaochen's words and pretend to be stupid, or stand on Ji Ning's side and report to her? In the end, Xiao Li, who squeezed into the bus, couldn't stand the condemnation of his conscience, and hurriedly sent a message to Ji Ning while he still had time.

"Lawyer Ji, Mr. Ye already knows where you are, he is on his way to find you now, be careful!"

It's a pity that sometimes fate likes to play tricks on people so much, if Xiao Li is less entangled for two minutes, or can be faster when typing, it can be two seconds faster, then Ji Ning can see her message.

It's a pity that in these few seconds, the phone has been turned off by Ji Ning and put it in the bag. And it seems that she won't look at her phone for a while.

"Senior brother, how about we just come to eat and chat today, and don't talk about business?" Seeing that the dishes had come up one after another, Ji Ning couldn't continue to show Chen Mu's face, so he proposed.

In the usual way, even if people came to eat, she would seize the time to talk about business. She's a workaholic, but now, she doesn't have the heart to do so.

Because of what happened just now, Chen Mu was still a little embarrassed, and now that Ji Ning took the initiative to open his mouth to give him the stairs, he naturally didn't want to say anything, nodded lightly, and agreed to it.

The dishes were basically ordered by Ji Ning alone, and they were all her favorite foods. Chen Mu picked up the chopsticks that had not been used and picked up vegetables for her: "Eat more, you are too thin." ”

His movements are very calm, and his tone is very natural. New guests look at them in amazement as they walk by. Handsome men and beautiful women, such a couple is a perfect match.

Ji Ning was indeed hungry, and they were all dishes he liked to eat, so he didn't twist it, picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Rao is like this, she doesn't gobble it up, and every movement maintains the reserved and elegant it should be.

This is not something she deliberately pretended, but a habit she developed when she was a child, and it is also what she has asked of herself for so many years. If you want to be a perfect person, you have to be strict with yourself in all aspects.

Ji Ning drank a bowl of soup, but saw that Chen Mu didn't move much. She put down her chopsticks and gave Chen Musheng soup: "Why don't you eat it?" What don't you like about these dishes? "I was patronizing Qi Chen Mu just now, ordering food by myself, and I forgot to ask her opinion.

However, she remembered that Chen Mu was not a picky eater, as long as it was not particularly unpalatable, he didn't mind.

"It's not." Chen Mu shook his head, took the bowl from Ji Ning's hand, and put it in front of him, but he didn't move. He sighed thoughtfully and said, "Recently, the office has been too busy, and I have been too busy to eat." ”

When it came to work, Ji Ning's hand paused. Diverted the topic without a trace: "Then eat more today, don't think so much." ”

Who knew that Chen Mu didn't seem to be as angry as she was just now, and somehow, he wanted to change the topic again. There is a purpose for meeting Ji Ning today, and he definitely can't go home empty-handed.

So he pulled the topic back to the point without leaking: "The firm has just been established, everything is still unstable, and I don't want to worry too much, but I can't help it." He sighed, looking distressed.

But isn't that how entrepreneurship works, if it's smooth sailing from the beginning, then everyone goes to start a business, and what kind of work do they have? However, Ji Ning only secretly complained in her heart and did not express them.

Ji Ning lowered her head, didn't seem to hear Chen Mu's complaints, and ate quietly.

But somehow, the dish that was full of color and flavor just now tastes the same as Jue wax. After she ate a little, she felt that she had no appetite and could not eat anymore.

"Ah Ning ......" Seeing that Ji Ning was silent, Chen Mu had no choice but to continue to play the emotional card. He lowered his voice and said, "I'm not talking about business, I just want to tell you about my current situation." ”

Ji Ning only felt irritable, and said a casual "um".

Chen Mu continued: "You know, my parents never wanted me to be a lawyer. ”

Ji Ning knew this, and she had heard Chen Mu say it when she was in college. His family's background is not bad, his mother is in politics and his father is in business, and her parents naturally hope that Chen Mu can choose one of the two so that he can inherit their mantle.

Chen Mu didn't have that idea, and the university chose to major in law despite the opposition of his family. Later, I went abroad before graduating, and I didn't want to be controlled by my family, so I simply worked as a lawyer abroad after graduation.

In the past two years, the Chen family's parents have come up in age, and they miss their son very much when they are old. The relationship between the family of three has eased a lot, and this time Chen Mu returned to China, and the second elder of the Chen family didn't say anything about him.

But after all, these were what Ji Ning heard Chen Mu talk about occasionally, and she didn't know what the specific situation of the family was, and she didn't want to know more about it.

Ji Ning's fingers pinched the cup, and his index finger hit the wall of the cup one by one, not listening to what Chen Mu was saying, and he had no interest in answering. The dish in front of him was already cold and tasteless, and neither of them noticed it.

"When I returned to China this time, my parents agreed with me on the surface, and they also helped me solve some of the problems." Chen Mu said slowly, looking at Ji Ning's expression from time to time, and seeing that she was not disgusted, he would continue to speak.

"But they told me very clearly that if my firm didn't meet their requirements in a short period of time, then I would have to go home and go into business with my father," he said. ”

Finally, Ji Ning's expression changed slightly. She drank a glass of water, and then asked Chen Mu, "You agreed?" ”

Chen Mu didn't say anything, pursed his lips and bowed his head slightly, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

That's right, if Ji Ning is Chen Mu's parents, he will also choose to let Chen Mu go back to inherit the family business. On the one hand, it is the result of my hard work, and I don't want to fall into the hands of others. On the other hand, he doesn't want his children to suffer anymore, so Ji Ning can understand his parents' approach.

But everyone has their own aspirations, and understanding is understanding, Ji Ning will not sway Chen Mu's thoughts.

She sat up straight: "So you went to Shen Hongming and grabbed this list?" That makes sense. Chen Mu nodded again, and Ji Ning let out a long sigh, not knowing what to say.

"Actually, you don't have to take this case, your firm has just started, I think it is easier to consolidate your position in a small lawsuit, and bluffing is never the best way." Ji Ning said slowly.

If you have a solid foundation, even if you don't earn much, you can accumulate it for the future.

After a pause, she continued to express her opinion: "What's more, Shen Hongming's lawsuit, anyone with a little judgment ability knows that he is a scumbag. You helped a scumbag win a lawsuit, and you have a bad opinion of the firm, what will your peers think of you in the future? ”

Chen Mu poured water for Ji Ning and explained: "The scum is him, and I am his lawyer, but it doesn't mean that I am the same as him." I defended him out of professional ethics and had nothing to do with character. ”

Well, since he said so, Ji Ning had nothing more to say, and she resumed her silence.

On the other side, Ye Shaochen, who learned Ji Ning's specific location, came over here with a clear purpose. I went upstairs with a familiar car, found the front desk here, and asked the waiter here.

Because Ji Ning and Chen Mu are very good-looking, they will make a deep impression, and they have been here before, so when Ye Shaochen casually described it, the clerk knew who he was talking about.

The clerk thought that the three of them were together, so he enthusiastically brought Ye Shaochen over.

At this moment, Chen Mu was trying his best to persuade Ji Ning to justify his difficulties and helplessness. But Ji Ning couldn't listen to it, and wanted to leave several times, but because of Chen Mu's face, he forced himself to stay.
