Don will announce his retirement on the first anniversary of his law firm.

At that time, Tang Jiang was a celebrity in the legal and political circles, and he was famous, and there was never a shortage of cases in his hands, and even the Luo family, a family of lawyers, came to recruit him.

On the night of the first anniversary celebration banquet, Zhou Tong specially learned to make soup from his hometown and brought it over.

She was about to step forward to congratulate General Tang, but the other party said something unexpectedly.

"I'm going to close the office."

One sentence made the atmosphere of the scene cool down instantly.

The crowd that was singing and dancing looked at the man in the middle in silence.

They don't understand and even think the other person is joking.

"Barrister Tang, don't make such a joke."

"It's just that my little heart can't help but be so scared of you."

Everyone was clamoring, and Zhou Tong looked at General Tang's expression, but he had a bad premonition in his heart.

"No kidding, I'm going to close the office."

The commotion stopped abruptly.

Zhou Tong was in a trance, and he didn't hold the hot soup in his hand for a while.

"Shhhh

The hot liquid was all poured on her arm, and Zhou Tong gasped.

"Zhou Tong!"

"Are you alright?"

Several female friends around me instantly rushed to help wipe it.

Zhou Tong shook his head, endured the hot pain in his arm, walked up to General Tang, and barely pulled out a smile.

"Mr. Tang, are you really going to close the law firm? Did you encounter any difficulties? Tell me and we can all help you. ”

And all the people who were on the side should be in harmony.

"Yes, General Tang, there is no need to close the office, you are famous now."

"If you have any difficulties, just say it, and my brother will definitely help if he can help!"

Zhou Tong looked at him with a wistful gaze.

The man looked at her, then shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I've made up my mind."

Zhou Tong's body was unstable and took two steps back, she was a little flustered.

"Then at least tell us why?"

At least give her a reason to give up, right?

The man was silent for a long time, and then said, "I'm sorry for disappointing your expectations." ”

Neither the Tang general nor these people stayed long.

In the end, only Zhou Tong was left standing in place, and the bowl of hot soup that had been knocked over.

On the balcony, Don will lean on the railing, looking into the distance, not knowing what he is thinking.

He habitually touched his pocket, but it was still empty.

"Do you want one?"

Familiar voices, familiar lollipops.

Tang Jiang paused, this time he didn't refuse, took it neatly, tore open the candy paper and put it in his mouth, and then said something vaguely. 、

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, it's just a favor."

An Li rested his elbow on the railing, looking relaxed.

"......," Tang Jiang glanced at her, "You really refuse to eat even a loss." ”

"In life, you have to suffer a lot, so don't eat what you can, otherwise it will be so bitter." An Li said lightly.

Don will be a little surprised.

"It doesn't sound like a kid in his early twenties."

The lollipop in my mouth is still sweet.

"Still, it makes sense." Tang Jiang looked into the distance, "Those who deliberately look for losses are fools. ”

Ann Li didn't answer.

After a few moments, Don finished the lollipop in his mouth.

"I'm back."

He turned, took out the remaining stick, and threw it into the trash.

An Li looked at the man's slightly sloppy back and hooked his lips.

There are always some very stupid people in this world, but it is precisely because of these "fools" that some things that ordinary people are unwilling to do can be accomplished, and some unattainable happiness can be returned to the world.

If that's the case.

An Li raised his head and looked at the blue sky.

It doesn't seem like it's okay to suffer some losses.

Zhou Tong didn't go downstairs for a long time, which is equivalent to losing all the work to the seniors in the same group to help.

Qiu Jiangbin looked at the mountains of desks, and he couldn't say anything about the bitterness in his heart.

He originally stopped by to participate in a show, and the director also said at the time that they were here to help, and they could play a guiding role.

When Zhou Tong selected the file he was responsible for, Qiu Jiangbin was secretly glad that compared to several other guests who did not understand professional knowledge at all, Zhou Tong did not need them to bother at all.

Isn't that the equivalent of picking up money on the ground?

Although before coming to the show, Qiu Jiangbin heard some rumors about Zhou Tong from his peers, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart.

Now looking at all these jobs that were all lost to him, Qiu Jiangbin almost didn't cry.

Sure enough, not a penny was taken for nothing in this world.

"Hey Lao Qiu, why are you alone?"

The passer-by looked at it with some curiosity.

Qiu Jiangbin raised his head, and the other party was also a guest of support, and it was Song Qi, a college student in the law department.

The man cried with a face: "She's not feeling well." I went up and rested. ”

The other party looked at him sympathetically: "Then your workload is quite heavy." ”

"What about you? It's all done, wandering around here? ”

Qiu Jiangbin asked casually, he remembered that the number of cases in charge of the other party was the largest, civil cases, large and small, just a little, especially miscellaneous.

"Oh." The other party took a sip of water and said casually, "Song Qi's kid is not bad, give him a little guidance, and he is very energetic at work." ”

Qiu Jiangbin: "......"

His eyes were fierce: "So you came to show off on purpose?" ”

The other party raised his eyebrows: "Oops, you can see it." ”

Qiu Jiangbin turned the paper to the next page fiercely, not wanting to talk to him.

"Oh, just kidding."

The man walked in smiling, pulled out a chair and sat down.

"What else is wrong with you?"

Qiu Jiangbin grinded the back alveoli.

The other party glanced at the camera placed around the corner and said, "I think Lao Chen's progress is also good." ”

Qiu Jiangbin pressed the ballpoint pen refill twice.

"So what?"

"I don't know what about the rest of the group."

The man's words seemed to be unintentional, but they suddenly silenced Qiu Jiangbin.

They are considered to be middle-class and upper-class in the circle, but they have also heard of the name of General Tang back then, and even dealt with them in court.

They know a little bit about the inside story of Tang Jiang's departure back then.

But so what?

Some things can't be done with enthusiasm, isn't Tang Jiang suffering this loss?

He was slightly irritable.

The other party got up with a smile, walked up to him, and bent down and patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't stress too much."

In the next sentence, the other party pressed it to his ear and lowered his voice.

"That one asked me to tell you to take good care of General Tang."

Qiu Jiangbin's breathing was stagnant, his thoughts were confused, and he didn't even know when the other party left.

I don't know how long it took, a female voice sounded in my ears, waking up Qiu Jiangbin.

"Qiu Lu, what's wrong with you?"

Thank you for the monthly pass of the cold and cold V~
