Chapter 018: Stepmother Sapo didn't please her

Xu Meihui's words are all proud, in the past, Fang Ruoning would be jealous and hateful, but now she has become much more mature and stable, and she will never lose her mind because of a few words she provoked at will.

"Aunt Xu, now it's just the two of us, you don't have to pretend anymore about what happened back then, right? Do you really not know whether I pushed you down the stairs, or if you accidentally or even deliberately fell down yourself? ”

Xu Meihui's face changed, originally their age difference was not a few years, but when they were called aunts, they felt like they had become old women all of a sudden.

However, in terms of generation, she should indeed be called that.

choked in her heart, Xu Meihui pursed her lips and pretended not to understand: "Ruoning, you were only a teenager at the time, and I don't care if a child makes a mistake recklessly, why are you still unwilling to apologize to me after so many years?" ”

Since she was called an aunt, she simply took on the attitude of an elder.

Fang Ruoning shrugged his shoulders with a sneer, lowered his head, put away the dossier spread out on the table, and said lightly: "Okay, let's get down to business, didn't you want me to provide legal advice on drunk driving accidents?" According to the rules of the industry, lawyers are charged by the minute for providing legal aid, so let's get straight to the point! ”

After the words fell, she turned the timer alarm clock on the table, and looked up at the woman with heavy makeup opposite: "Ms. Xu, let's tell me about the case first!" ”

Xu Meihui seems to be a little uncomfortable with this neat stepdaughter, in my impression, she is a good girl who is only timid and afraid of things, and at that time, she was bullied and had nowhere to go, so she would hide in Zhao Linlang's house.

Later, Fang Bingguo did business, and he didn't live in the dilapidated old community, so he bought a high-rise house instead, and when they moved away, the girl still hugged the hostess of the Zhao family and cried and said no, as if she fell into the devil's cave as soon as she walked with them.

Why haven't I seen her for a few years, she seems to have changed as a person, and she has become a well-known barrister who has returned from the UK?

She glanced at her suspiciously, Xu Meihui couldn't believe it, "Are you really a lawyer?" ”

Fang Ruoning smiled, "Do you need to show you my lawyer's card?" When the words fell, she smiled contemptuously again, "But I'll show you, do you understand?" Pure English. ”

Xu Meihui's face stiffened, she was extremely embarrassed, she was a scumbag.

"Ms. Xu, three minutes have passed, let me remind you that it is not only time that has been lost, but also money."

When it came to money, Xu Meihui suddenly had confidence, and raised her fingers contrivedly, "You probably don't know, your father has done well in the real estate business in the past few years and has made a lot of money!" You see, this diamond ring is more than 6 million, I said I like it, and your father bought it for me without saying a word......"

Fang Ruoning glanced at it, the corners of his mouth curved, and said seriously: "It's very beautiful, but let me remind you again, you have to be careful when you go out, don't be targeted, when something happens, you have to hire a lawyer." ”

Xu Meihui rolled her eyes in anger.

This stinky girl! It's really a different person, and his mouth is so powerful and mean! What a lawyer!

"Ms. Xu, do you still want to consult?"

Xu Meihui suddenly stood up with her bag and said arrogantly: "No need! I'm looking for Wei Yunche! ”

"I'm sorry, Wei Yunche is not here today, and he won't take on private cases for the time being."

"Heh, even so, I'm not looking for you! I still don't believe that I can't find a lawyer with money! ”

"Please. However, before Ms. Xu leaves, please pay the fee first-" Fang Ruoning glanced at the billing alarm clock, and raised his apricot eyes coldly, "Exactly one billing unit, six minutes, a thousand yuan." ”

When Xu Meihui heard this, her eyes widened, "A thousand yuan in six minutes?!" Fang Ruoning, you are not a lawyer, you are a robber! ”

"Ms. Xu, just what you say, I can sue you for slander."

Of course, Xu Meihui was not convinced, she only felt that Fang Ruoning was deliberately killing her, so she immediately unscrewed the door and shouted outward: "What kind of law firm are you?" I want to complain! ”

Director Chen rushed over when he heard the sound and asked politely, "Ms. Xu, may I ask what you are dissatisfied with?" ”

Xu Meihui rolled her eyes, and the hand wearing the huge pigeon egg pointed at Fang Ruoning tremblingly: "If I tell her for six minutes, she will charge me a thousand yuan!" ”

Fang Ruoning sat behind the desk, unfazed, and slowly sorted out the documents on the desk.

Director Chen looked inside and explained: "Ms. Xu, with the value of lawyer Fang, this fee is a normal standard, she used to work in a world-class top three well-known law firm, and the consulting fee is more than double this price, and after returning to China, it has been adjusted according to domestic standards." ”

"What?" Xu Meihui was also about to call the boss of the law firm to take a good look at her, but when she heard this, she immediately became more and more surprised, staring left and right, unable to speak.

"That's right." Director Chen nodded and continued, "Just now you said that you want to introduce you to a good lawyer, so I recommended Lawyer Fang, you said it yourself, money is not a problem, it is the most important thing to minimize your brother's punishment, I think Lawyer Fang is very suitable for your requirements." ”

Xu Meihui was so angry that her face turned white, how could she be embarrassed to say the embarrassing things her brother did in front of Fang Ruoning!

Many people in the office area got up and looked at her, as if they were laughing at her for not being able to get the consultation fee, although Xu Meihui was not convinced, but she had a good face, she still opened her bag after a few seconds of stalemate, took out her wallet and dragged a few banknotes, and walked in angrily and threw them on Fang Ruoning's desk, "Here you go!" ”

"Little love."

"Sister Ruoning."

"Count for me, see if you have enough." Fang Ruoning lowered his jaw a little and said lightly.

The onlookers all saw that the relationship between the two was not ordinary, otherwise it would not be inexplicably full of gunpowder, and Lin Tianai felt that Sister Ruoning seemed to be deliberately trying to humiliate this Ms. Xu.

stepped forward, picked up the banknotes and counted them, Lin Tianai looked at Xu Meihui with an embarrassed smile: "Ms. Xu, I'm sorry, there are still two left." ”

Xu Meihui's face became more and more ugly.

"It seems that Ms. Xu has no money, dare to be ...... That pigeon egg is also fake, right? Behind the desk, Fang Ruoning said lightly.

"Fang Ruoning!" Xu Meihui was furious and immediately took out her mobile phone to make a call.

Everyone stood quietly, wanting to see what this woman was going to do, but as soon as the phone rang, she cried coquettishly: "Husband, I was bullied outside......"

The sound instantly caused many people to touch their arms and feel goosebumps falling.

"Who? Who else...... Isn't it your femme fatale's eldest daughter Fang Ruoning! She's back home! ”

What the?

This news surprised the melon-eating crowd! It turned out that this woman with heavy makeup and bejewels was lawyer Fang's - stepmother?!

And this stepmother is now calling Lawyer Fang's father to complain?!

Although Fang Ruoning has not been in the company for a long time, everyone still knows his character, and he is not a troublemaker. And people's stereotypical stepmother is a derogatory term, and immediately, everyone is full of sympathy for Fang Ruoning.

"In ...... In that ...... What is it called Yuntian Law Firm, in this piece of CBD! Xu Meihui also cried and hummed and chirped, reporting her position.

Fang Ruoning frowned slightly, knowing that this low-key and peaceful day was coming to an end.

When Xu Meihui hung up the phone, she said lukewarmly: "Ms. Xu, the remaining two hundred yuan should be regarded as a birthday red envelope for my little brother, you can go." ”

"Two hundred yuan in red envelopes?" Xu Meihui sneered and stared at her viciously, "You should be called Hanako!" ”

Fang Ruoning pouted, it didn't matter.

"Someone will deliver it later! My dignified Mrs. Fang will miss you two hundred dollars! I'll save your dowry! Dropping these words harshly, Xu Meihui turned around and stepped on her high heels and walked away.

The atmosphere in the office was awkward, and everyone looked at each other.

Director Chen cleared his throat in embarrassment and stepped forward: "That, Ruoning, I'm really sorry, I don't know the relationship between this Ms. Xu and you ......"

"It's okay." Fang Ruoning smiled generously, and before he could finish his words, the mobile phone rang on the desk.

"I'm sorry Director Chen, I'll answer the phone."

"Okay, you get busy first."

Looking at the caller ID, Fang Ruoning had a bad premonition, "Hey, senior brother." ”

Wei Yunche stood in the office of the legal department of the Huo Building, and said in a low voice: "I mentioned it to this side, but they don't agree to change lawyers. ”

"Why?" Sure enough, it's not a good thing.
