Zhu Shan came out of Qu Lianjie's office and began to sort out and transfer the documents, and when the documents were ready, she sent them to Gu Xingchi, and explained a few more words.

Gu Xingchi only nodded sullenly and didn't say anything.

After Zhu Shan finished explaining, she began to pack up her workstation again.

As she cleaned up, she wondered, did she do something wrong?

Is it wrong to testify in court?

If it's not wrong, why be suspended?

Why do usually amicable colleagues avoid her gaze?

Why does it feel... Isolated?

Those bad memories of the past came back to her mind, and Zhu Shan bit her lip and told herself not to think about it.

She glanced around her desk, and there was nothing left to clean up.

Papers are stacked on the left side of the desk, humidifiers and potted plants are on the right side of the desk, and drinking glasses are in the drawer.

Zhu Shan put the USB flash drive and charger into her bag, then turned off the computer and pushed the office chair in.

Walking out of the office, there is a long hallway. All the way, she didn't look up.

When she arrived at the elevator, Zhu Shan clicked the down button, and then looked at her toes in a daze.

"Sanshan!"

Zhu Shan turned around suddenly, and Wu Jing ran over from the corridor.

Before Zhu Shan could make any expression, Wu Jing had already brought a gust of wind and hugged her.

Wu Jing gasped a little: "I just came back from handing in the information, didn't you even say hello?"

Zhu Shan didn't know what to say, so she called "Sister Jing", and her tone was a little hoarse.

Wu Jing patted Zhu Shan's back vigorously and said freely, "What's the matter, what are you afraid of?"

The distance between the two widened, Wu Jing looked at Zhu Shan and smiled: "Don't be depressed, people on the Internet are just watching a lively scene, you should be on vacation, I will help you water the little saplings on the table to ensure that you are green when you come back."

Zhu Shan looked at her for a few seconds and nodded, "Don't pour too much."

「？」

Zhu Shan reminded her, "Your cactus is drowned."

Wu Jing: "......"

Zhu Shan planned to go home directly, she looked at the subway entrance, and finally decided to take the bus.

After all, the weather is not bad today, a little sunny, and you can take the bus to bask in the sun.

Because it was not rush hour, there were few people on the bus, and there were many vacant seats, so Zhu Shan found a window seat.

She rested her head against the car window, staring at the receding streetscape in a daze.

Suddenly, the cell phone in her bag rang.

It was a call from Ling's mother.

Zhu Shan exhaled to adjust her emotions, and then picked it up. She said again very calmly that it was okay, it would be resolved soon, no worries.

To appease Ling's mother, Zhu Shan opened the news APP.

Someone on the Internet has picked up Zhu Shan's past interview videos, no matter what the content, there will be bad comments such as "disgusting" and "eyeballs".

Zhu Shan closed the news APP, opened WeChat, and looked through the circle of friends.

After flipping through it for a while, she saw Shu Qiwen post a pure white photo with the words "I really want to eat hot pot".

Zhu Shan remembered that she still owed Shu Qiwen a meal.

Zhu Shan clicked on the dialog box with Shu Qiwen and typed.

Zhu Shan: [Sister Qiwen, do you have time to eat hot pot together? 】

Soon, Shu Qiwen replied to the message.

Shu Qiwen: [I haven't returned to China yet. 】

Zhu Shan remembered that Shu Qiwen went abroad on National Day, and it had been more than two months, so she was a little surprised why she hadn't come back yet.

Before she could reply, Shu Qiwen's message popped up again.

Shu Qiwen: [Why don't we come to the cloud to eat hot pot?] 】

Cloud... Eating hot pot?

Zhu Shan: [??? 】

Shu Qiwen: [Order a nine-square grid, it must be extra spicy, and then ask for beef and hairy belly, what do you order? ] 】

Zhu Shanzai carefully read Shu Qiwen's message twice, and then the corners of her mouth opened.

She didn't expect Shu Qiwen to have such a naïve side.

Zhu Shan cooperated with her: [I want lotus root slices and duck blood, as well as thousands of crab meat. Sticks, and crab roe shrimp slippery. 】

Shu Qiwen: [Then I'll add another thousand silk yellow throat and dry tribute vegetables.] 】

Zhu Shan: [Then I would like to order a rocket squid and Xiaojun liver.] 】

Shu Qiwen: [I can't add vegetables, I can't finish eating!] 】

When Zhu Shan saw this news popping up, all the depression in her heart dissipated, and she laughed directly.

The old man sitting in the front turned around and looked at her with strange eyes.

Zhu Shan blushed, covered her face with her small hands, and continued to chat with Shu Qiwen.

Shu Qiwen: [Little cutie, I saw the domestic news, are you very annoyed now? 】

Zhu Shan: [Well, I was suspended by the company. 】

Shu Qiwen: [Do you want to know what I think as an industry professional? 】

Zhu Shan: [Yes.] 】

Shu Qiwen: [Witnesses need to apply to appear in court, a series of procedures, and their identities have been reviewed, so there is no problem for you to appear in court. 】

Shu Qiwen: [You are a witness for the prosecution, if there is a retraction of your confession in court, then all your testimony will be difficult to admit, and there is no such thing as reversing the outcome of the trial as Zhuo Yue said. 】

Shu Qiwen: [Little cutie, the law can judge criminals, and it can also be a weapon to protect people! 】

Protecting people... Weapons?

Zhu Shan immediately typed: [She made me up like this, can I sue her?] 】

Shu Qiwen: [Of course! 】

Shu Qiwen: [You can ask the professional in your family for details!] 】

Zhu Shan: [Thank you, Sister Qiwen!] 】

Shu Qiwen: [Okay, I'm done eating, you can settle the bill!] 】

Zhu Shan: "......" is so abrupt.

Zhu Shan cooperated and sent an emoji with RMB.

Shu Qiwen: [I'm so happy to eat hot pot with you! 】

Shu Qiwen: [Then you owe me food, even if you pay it back!] 】

Zhu Shan: [This is fake, when you come back, I will invite you to eat hot pot again, I know there is a time-honored store, which is particularly delicious. 】

This time, Zhu Shan waited for a long time and did not receive a reply.

The bus slowly entered the platform, the sunlight was blocked by the stop signs, and the vision was darkened.

Zhu Shan blinked, picked up her bag and ran down.

She took a taxi to the Yusen Building.

Five minutes later, Zhu Shan stood in front of Doree, her small hands clutching her backpack, her lips pursed slightly, and her round eyes were full of seriousness.

Doree looked up, then closed the file and stood up, "Shanshan, Ling Lu is in the office."

Zhu Shan shook her head and paused word by word: "I, want, fight, lawsuit, division!"

Doree：「......」

When Ling Xiao got Zhu Shan from Doree to find a lawyer to fight the lawsuit, Zhu Shan had already chatted with Lawyer Zhao in the client reception room.

Ling Xiao stood outside the glass window, and from this angle, he could see Zhu Shanbi describing it hand by hand.

She wore a mid-length off-length off-white coat with light-colored jeans underneath, and looked pretty good with her large movements.

Ling Xiao looked at it for a moment, then turned around and went back to the office.

It was almost six o'clock before Zhu Shan finished her conversation with Lawyer Zhao.

Then go find Ling Xiao.

She pushed open the office door slightly, poked a small head in, and called softly, "Husband."

Ling Xiao looked up and saw a round face, with big eyes and a crooked smile.

He beckoned, "Come here."

Zhu Shan trotted over, and before she could sit down, Ling Xiao nodded and signaled, "I'll come here."

？？？

Zhu Shan remembered that she had suffered like that last time, and she shook her head defensively: "Don't."

Ling Xiao sighed and put on the cap of the pen: "I see."

Look at the wounds on your hands."

Zhu Shan: "......"

Then, a hat was fastened on Zhu Shan's head: "What do you think about every day?"

Zhu Shan was speechless, so angry that she wanted to kick her feet.

Isn't it because she has learned from the past?

Besides, what face does he have to tease her?

Obviously, he guides her every time.

Zhu Shan walked over angrily, and lifted her sleeves before raising her hands.

When she raised her eyes again, Zhu Shan saw the word "teasing" in Ling Xiao's eyes, she wanted to run, but her body was obviously not as fast as her brain, and the next second, she was already on Ling Xiao's lap.

Ling Xiao hugged Zhu Shan from behind, her knees lifted up to lift her feet off the ground, and her strong arms pressed her arms around her lower abdomen, making her whole body unable to move.

He hugs people, just like others.

Overbearing.

Zhu Shan: "Don't you want to see my hand injury?"

Ling Xiao sneered, and his tone was not ashamed: "You don't need to rub the medicine in the morning, what else do you see?"

What else to watch?

What to see??

What???

Zhu Shan didn't understand how he could be so arrogant.

What a lawyer, it's a hooligan!

Zhu Shan's face turned red with anger: "You're annoyed!"

Ling Xiao laughed so hard that her chest shook, seeing that the roots of her ears were dyed red, she couldn't help but kiss her.

The dampness and heat on the ear bones were crisp and numb, Zhu Shan tilted her head to hide, and even her tone softened: "What are you doing?"

Ling Xiao didn't answer her words, but moved her body and hugged her sideways.

He looked at her curled eyelashes, "I thought you would be uncomfortable, but I didn't expect to get into a lawsuit."

"No, can't you?"

Ling Xiao's rare obedience: "Yes, you did a good job."

Speaking of this, Zhu Shan was still a little depressed: "Lawyer Zhao's litigation fees are so expensive."

She went to Doree at the time and said that she wanted the best lawyer, and then added, don't Ling Xiao and Li Shang.

As a result, this lawyer Zhao is really expensive.

Her salary for working for so long was not enough to pay half of it, and her heart was bleeding when she swiped her card just now.

The main thing is that she demanded a public apology.

Lawyer Zhao said that Bonjour could be asked to bear the legal costs, but Zhu Shan knew that Bonjour... No money.

Zhu Shan turned slightly, worried: "Will the money be spent, and the lawsuit will be lost?"

Ling Xiao was upset and twisted her cheek: "Who don't you trust?"

Zhu Shan muttered, but did not refute.

Ling Xiao grabbed her little hand and kneaded her fingers, as if she was playing: "Zhuo Yue and that Internet celebrity have been detained, and her behavior this time will not only affect you and me, but also the Indo-Japanese Group behind Ren Xingyan."

Zhu Shan's big eyes flickered: "Who else is it affected?"

"Justice!" Ling Xiao said, "She is challenging the fairness of the judicial trial, which is no longer a trivial matter, and it is already a serious social problem."

Sounds really serious.

Zhu Shan: "Then do I have to sue her?"

"It's not a conflict, but your lawsuit may have to be lined up in the back, after all, the court has launched an investigation with the prosecutor and the police, and there are many more waiting for her!"

Zhu Shan's mind turned: "According to what you say, my lawsuit is won."

Ling Xiao let out a faint "um".

"Then I don't need to hire Lawyer Zhao?" The corners of Zhu Shan's mouth were opened, her eyes lit up, and she looked like a money obsession, "A cheaper lawyer is fine, right?"

"You can change lawyers." Ling Xiao leaned back slightly, raised her eyebrows, and deliberately teased her, "The fee will not be refunded."

Two seconds later, Zhu Shan made a gesture and grabbed Ling Xiao's neck: "Black shop!"

Ling Xiao pulled down Zhu Shan's hand, and the smile on his face was extraordinarily wanton.

Zhu Shan rarely saw Ling Xiao smile like this.

Zhu Shan pursed the corners of her lips: "You are very happy today?"

Ling Xiao's eyebrows moved, his smile gradually retracted, and he pressed Zhu Shan's waist with his hand.

Because of this strength, Zhu Shan sat up straight.

Ling Xiao's head rested on Zhu Shan's shoulder, and some hardness of hair was tied around her neck, itching and tingling.

He pressed his forehead against her neck and didn't speak for a moment.

Zhu Shan didn't know what was wrong with him, but she could hear Ling Xiao's heavy breathing.

She waited obediently, for him to speak.

"Sanshan." Ling Xiao's voice was relaxed, "It's almost over."

His hand that was originally clasped around her waist slowly moved up along the warm woolen fabric, and then covered Zhu Shan's vest, and after exerting force, the two of them pressed tighter.

Ling Xiao: "No matter what happens, don't act rashly, believe me, can you do it?"

Zhu Shan's mouth moved, she wanted to say, of course she can.

But she realized that this was not simple, otherwise Ling Xiao would not emphasize it alone.

So, it's almost over, referring to... Daddy's business?

Zhu Shan's mind was so clear, she thought and thought, thought and thought, and her heart was full of doubts and worries.

She nodded her head and promised, "I can do it! Ling Xiao, I can do it!"

Ling Xiao raised his head, the gloom in his eyes flashed, and he kissed Zhu Shan's mouth.

Sure enough, her face turned red in an instant.

The corners of Ling Xiao's mouth were torn apart, and he slowly brushed all the hair scattered on Zhu Shan's shoulders behind his back, and his fingers gently scraped her neck, the back of her neck, and her ears, all gentle.

Then he cupped her little face with both hands and pressed her forehead to it.

Zhu Shan felt some rough fingertips rubbing against the side of her face, tickling.

and the forehead that was against her forehead, which was hot.

She could see his fluttering eyelashes, the straight bridge of his nose, and his thin lips.

The lips moved, and the voice was magnetic and hoarse.

"Shanshan, this year's Chinese New Year, I want to watch fireworks with you."

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows are clouds dyed red, and even the office is colored.

Zhu Shan shouted, "Okay."

The strength in Ling Xiao's hand was a little heavier.

Didn't you ask me that day, what was my twenty-seventh birthday wish?

That's my twenty-seventh birthday wish.
