Chapter 040: Get Closer to Him and Pay Off Your Debts
After watching them leave, Sui Ran hesitated and asked, "Brother Yun Shen, is it really okay?" It's twenty minutes to get to the courthouse from here...... It's only an hour in total, so wouldn't it be too tight for them? ”
"As a lawyer, you have to face so many accidents anytime and anywhere, if you can't do this, what qualifications do you have to call yourself a super lawyer?" Ji Yunshen turned on the computer and started working without distractions.
Two hours later, Sui Ran received a call from Qiao Zhichu, saying that he had won the case.
…… In this way, he can win the lawsuit, and Qiao Zhichu's title of the first lawyer in Jiangling is really not for nothing.
Qiao Zhichu hung up the phone, the time was already half past eleven o'clock at noon, she and Chen Ming decided to have lunch and then go back, they discussed it, and found a ramen restaurant to eat wonton noodles, Qiao Zhichu seemed to be in a good mood, and ate with relish, on the contrary, Chen Ming was a little worried.
He dug up a spoonful of chili peppers and stirred, and hesitantly shouted, "Boss......"
Qiao Zhichu finally waited for him to speak: "Say what you want to say directly." ”
Chen Ming put down his chopsticks, looked at her squarely, and asked seriously: "Boss, why do we want to go to Wigxin?" ”
Qiao Zhichu paused, lowered his head and whispered two words: "Pay off the debt." ”
Debt.
Pay off the debt she owes him.
It's not just love debts, there's a lot more.
Maybe she couldn't pay him anything at all, but since he wanted her to go to his lawyer's office, what if she satisfied him? Besides, she also has selfish intentions, at least so that she can be closer to him.
She had been away from him for so many years, and hoped that it was too late to remedy it.
"You owe Ji Yunshen money? How much do you owe? Otherwise, if we find another way to pay it back, I always feel very awkward, and even the way the judge looks at us is weird. "Chen Ming heard it, and one judge asked the other judge, 'Did Wegxin give the case to the Zhizhi Law Firm again?' At that time, he was going to die of embarrassment.
"Thinking too much." Qiao Zhichu picked up a large number of chopsticks and noodles, and stuffed them directly into his mouth after blowing them cold, without the usual temperament, he lowered his head and said vaguely, "There are no eternal enemies in the mall, and peers are not always enemies, the times are changing, the world is changing, we are keeping up with the trend, there is nothing to be particularly surprised." ”
Chen Ming pursed his lips, still very absent-minded.
Qiao Zhichu glanced at him, sighed and said: "Our law firm has no value now, now it is not about closing sooner or later, looking at Jiangling, Weigexin is also one of the best choices, we are good birds to perch on." ”
"Huh." Chen Ming suddenly grinned when he heard this, "It seems to make some sense, I feel much more comfortable when you say this." ”
Qiao Zhichu winked at him: "Yes, we have studied law for so many years just to be lawyers, since we are lawyers, where is not to be." As he spoke, he shouted to the boss for another bowl of noodles.
"Boss, I don't usually see how much you like to eat noodles."
Qiao Zhichu smiled but said nothing.
When the two went back to the law firm, the other employees didn't come back from their lunch break, Qiao Zhichu turned on the computer, took out all the materials of the case in the morning, and began to write the file record, she didn't notice that in fact, in addition to her and Chen Ming, there was another person on this floor who didn't leave.
Ji Yunshen raised her head in front of the desk, this angle was just right, you could see her side face from the folding analysis of the blinds, her eyes did not leave the computer screen, her hand was tapping quickly on the keyboard, occasionally turning over the materials in her hand, the broken hair on her sideburns slid down with her movements when she lowered her head, she reached out at random and picked it up, and then drew something in circles on the paper with a pen......
Ji Yunshen unconsciously looked at her in a trance, and it wasn't until she raised her head as if she felt something, that he pretended to move his head calmly, but in fact, he might not be able to see him from her perspective.
When he turned his head sideways, he happened to see the calendar on the table, and suddenly thought of something and frowned.
At two o'clock at the end of the lunch break, the employees returned to the office one after another, and saw that Qiao Zhichu was a little unnatural in the office, silently turned on the computer, boarded QQ, opened their internal group, and began to gossip in full swing.
"The first time I entered the door, I saw that my former opponent was sitting in the same office as me...... That feeling is too subtle. ”
"I feel the same way, and I wonder if I'm in the wrong door."
"Anyway, it's a great benefit for our law firm that she's here, looking at her in the morning, an hour of preparation time, so hasty, she can win the case."
"Don't forget, he is a well-known super lawyer in Jiangling, and he has not lost a lawsuit in the past six years, and the only time he lost was to Brother Yun Shen."
"I'm actually quite convinced of her, at least professionally, she's genuine. I just don't know what the relationship between her and Brother Yun Shen is, what should we call her? ”
"What can you call it, call your name, do you still want to call your sister-in-law?"
……
Sui Ran sat at the desk, looking at the chat records in the group expressionlessly, and the words 'real material' made her face sink a little more.
She knew that they were just feeling, just talking about Qiao Zhichu, and they didn't lead anyone else, but the so-called being a thief was like this, she subconsciously felt that this word was sarcastic to herself.
Although she used to be a top student in the law department, she has abandoned the law and followed the text over the years, and she is no longer very familiar with those laws and regulations, not to mention the ability to adapt.
is even inferior to Qiao Zhichu.
She slowly clenched her palms, and she suddenly realized that from this moment on, she and Qiao Zhichu had stood on opposite sides and had truly become a competitive relationship.
……
Throughout the day, except for Sui Ran who called her, Qiao Zhichu did not have any communication with other colleagues in the law firm, but when she got off work, a female colleague came over to say hello and gave her a bottle of medicinal wine: "I saw you have been rubbing your shoulders just now, use this to wipe it, it's very useful, many colleagues in our firm use it, it's very good." ”
Qiao Zhichu smiled and said thank you.
After everyone left, Qiao Zhichu took the written file and knocked on the door of Ji Yunshen's office.
"Come in."
Ji Yunshen saw that it was her, and looked away to continue looking at the computer, Qiao Zhichu paused, and handed him the file: "I have stored the file of the case in the morning, it should be handed over to you, right?" ”
He gestured to the tabletop: put it over there. ”
After Qiao Zhichu put it down, he stood in front of him for a few seconds before he whispered, "Also, thank you." ”
Ji Yunshen looked at her and raised his eyebrows.
She exhaled softly: "Thank you for writing the material very clearly, otherwise I wouldn't have won so easily." The material he had given her was arguably the most complete and comprehensive she had ever seen, and she recognized two kinds of handwriting in it, one of which was his.
At first, she thought he was embarrassing her, but after seeing the material, she changed her mind - in fact, he was helping her, although she was famous, but after joining Wigson, she was also a newcomer, and the title of 'former rival' would be somewhat rejected by other employees, at this moment, she really needed a victory to prove herself.
What he gave her was this victory.
He's helping her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but soften in her heart.
But Ji Yun listened deeply, but smiled without a smile, and said: "You think too much, the materials of our law firm are all written like that, and we will do everything possible to supplement and complete them to ensure the victory of the case to the greatest extent." ”
This sentence is true or false, it is all up to you to judge, and Qiao Zhichu obviously didn't believe it, she had a faint smile on her face, and her peach blossom eyes were also looking forward to life because of the smile, Ji Yunshen frowned, and said indifferently at the beginning: "Qiao Zhichu, since you have chosen to come, I will make some things clear to you, the minimum term of the labor contract of Weigexin is three years, so it is not that you can come and leave if you want." ”
When Qiao Zhichu heard this, he pulled out a chair and sat directly opposite him, and took a pen from the table: "Where is the contract?" ”
Ji Yunshen looked at her, and casually handed her a contract that had been prepared in front of the table, Qiao Zhichu didn't even look at the content, and quickly flipped to the place of signature, his name had been signed, and the seal was also stamped, she almost didn't pause, and wrote her name next to it.
Ji Yunshen looked at it, his eyes flashing.
Qiao Zhichu left his share and handed him the other: "Relieved? ”
Ji Yunshen just took it and didn't answer, she put away the contract and pen, stood up straight and said, "Lawyer Ji, if there is nothing else, I'll get off work." ”
Without waiting for him to answer, she turned and walked out, one step at a time...... Until her hand grasped the doorknob and pulled the door open and went out, there was silence behind her, and she didn't wait for him to say - happy birthday.
Qiao Zhichu pulled the corners of her mouth self-deprecatingly, after so many years of separation, who would remember when her birthday was.
She asked Sui Ran Tongxuan and them to go to the bar together in the evening to celebrate, she went directly after work, it was not yet six o'clock, it was not the time for the nightlife to start, there were not many people in the bar, she crossed the dance floor and entered the box, they had already arrived.
Tong Xuan complained: "Why are you so slow, Sui Ran has been here for a while." ”
"I'm not the latest, and I haven't arrived yet." Qiao Zhichu knew when she heard this that Sui Ran must have told Tong Xuan about her work at Weigexin, and she squeezed in, "Give way, today I am the birthday star, and I want to sit in the middle." ”
Tong Xuan rolled her eyes at her, but also gave her the middle position.
Sui Ran took a grape to eat, and smiled at Qiao Zhichu: "Of course Chu Chu is late for a reason, don't forget, now her boss is Ji Yunshen." ”
Tong Xuan didn't know the relationship between Qiao Zhichu and Ji Yunshen six years ago, but she still knew about the gossip news that was making a lot of noise some time ago, and when she heard this, she also squeezed her eyes ambiguously: "Oh, so, did someone celebrate a birthday with someone else before they came?" Oops, then I suddenly feel like you're coming a little fast. ”
