Xiao Long recently got a large amount of money from Lai Qianxiu, which he got in the name of alimony for his wife.

"It's not a way for us to go on like this, I want to marry you, so I'm going to officially divorce my wife, but I have to give her a sum of alimony. As you know, the hospital is in financial difficulties and can't come up with the money for the time being. I'm sorry for you, but can you help me get the money together first? ”

Lai Qianxiu was easily fooled, no matter what, being with Xiao Long forever is her greatest hope, hearing Xiao Long say this, her eyes immediately bloomed with surprise, and she immediately gave Xiao Long three million.

"Are you really going to marry me?" She approached Xiao Long and asked, "If you really marry me, I will divorce immediately." Give only three million, will your wife agree to a divorce? ”

"You don't have to worry, we've been separated for a long time. Thank you! I'll get this out in 10 days. ”

However, ten days have passed, twenty days have passed, and Xiao Long still has not brought Lai Qianxiu the good news that he has divorced his wife.

Lai Qianxiu reprimanded him, and he said, "The three million was originally intended for my wife." But then the hospital had an emergency, so I spent half of it on the hospital. Yes, I know I'm sorry for you, but as the dean, I can't ignore it. It was not easy to give half of the money to his wife, and it happened that the chief of affairs came to urge him to pay for the medicine, so he had no choice but to use the remaining money to pay for ...... first."

At this time, Xiao Long's expression was like a son who had been unsuccessful all day long admitting his mistakes in shame in front of his mother.

"It's okay, my wife, even if I don't give her alimony, I can leave." Xiao Long emphasized again.

Xiao Long looted nearly 10 million yuan from her. Xiao Long sometimes wonders that if Lai Qianxiu's husband dies, then the shop and those properties she runs will be owned by her, and if he marries her, will those properties be completely in his own hands? But now he has almost given up, because he slowly discovered that Lai Qianxiu is not so easy to coax, and she does not have the measure of handing over all her property to others.

Xiao Long drove to see Xia Zhifang.

Xia Zhifang's office is located in the heart of the city, but it is a small area off the central street, near old warehouses and dilapidated rental houses, which he can only enter through the narrow alleys between the houses.

This is a small two-story building in some years, although the sign says "Xia Zhifang Law Firm", but even if it is written as "tailor shop", it seems more appropriate. Xia Zhifang happened to be at home, with a large old table in the room, a rickety chair for guests, a wall full of cracks that looked like it was about to collapse, and a bookshelf more suitable for display in an antique store was placed against the wall, pretending to hold a few law books.

The floor has been ground and rough by the legs. As soon as Xiao Long walked up, something slimy was stuck to the soles of his feet.

"Hello." As soon as Xiao Long entered the room, he sat on the chair prepared for the guests. The chair was in tatters, and even the armrests were not working.

"It's you." Xia Zhifang walked to the side of the chair and replied in a low voice.

On the table was an open thread-bound book, and I wonder if its owner had just read it carefully.

Xiao Long has known Xia Zhifang for five years, but what kind of person Xia Zhifang is, he still can't figure it out. He was a very strange man, and outsiders had never known his whereabouts.

It stands to reason that since he is a lawyer, he should be so busy that he doesn't even have time to eat. The strange thing is that no matter when Xiao Long came, he never encountered anyone who came to entrust Xia Zhifang to a lawsuit. Although the sign at the door said "Law Firm", there were no other lawyers and no assistants. Every time he came to him, he had a gloomy expression, sitting lazily in his chair, but he didn't seem to bother with money. Xiao Long stared at him, until now, he had never heard the news about his lace from any woman.

"How?" Xiao Long put the package on the messy table.

"What's that?" Xia Zhifang remained motionless, still leaning back in his chair, glancing at the package boredly.

"Open it and take a look!" Xiao Long lit a cigarette and said.

The package contained the "antique tea bowl" that he secretly took away when Lai Qianxiu was not at home.

"Is it a tea bowl?"

Xiao Long unwrapped the package, Xia Zhifang still had a completely disinterested expression, as if he knew what was inside as soon as he saw the old black paulownia box.

"This is no ordinary tea bowl, take a good look." Xiao Long said.

"It's useless to read it."

"Look."

Xia Zhifang had no choice but to get up from the chair, untie the rope outside the box, open the lid, and was about to use his hands to take the tea bowl inside, Xiao Long became nervous: "Such a good thing, laymen should be careful!" Saying that, Xiao Long took Xia Zhifang's hand away, "If you take it like that, the forty or fifty thousand yuan thing will be finished immediately." Xiao Long carefully took the tea bowl out of the box and placed it on the table. In the dim light, the contours of the tea bowl are clear and soft.

"How's that, nice style, right?" Xiao Long sat back in his chair and admired the tea bowl from afar, "In antique tea bowls, such things are rare, whether it is the texture of the glaze or the red color due to the change of iron composition, it is impeccable, the more you look at it, the more charming." ”

"They're all fools." Xia Zhifang muttered, "I really don't understand that a pervert like you is so keen on this kind of quaint thing." ”

"It's all the same. Every subtle part of a woman's body is different, and so is the person God casts in a mold. Tea bowls are also very different from each other by the temperature of the kiln, the texture of the soil, and the depth of the glaze, and even the color of the firing is completely different, which is the same as that of a woman. ”

"I can't help it if you say that, but I don't like to collect these dirty tea bowls and plates."

"Collecting never ends, because each collection has its own characteristics. Each plate and bowl contains an ideal, and it is different. Therefore, even if you collect tens of thousands, you will not be satisfied, just like having a girlfriend. ”

"What's the same?" Xia Zhifang leaned back in his chair lazily.

"Men pursue many women, precisely because his ideals are diverse, what is not in this woman, there is something in other women, everyone has a little bit of what they want, and men want to realize this variety of ideals, so they slowly collect little by little. In this world, people who are called perverts are not necessarily inattentive people, like me, who are the kind of people who keep collecting their ideals little by little. ”

Xia Zhifang listened to Xiao Long's talk, he was not energetic at all, and said casually: "Where did you get this tea bowl from?" ”

"The antique store forced me to take it."

"Lie, you got it from Lai Qianxiu, right?"

"Sort of." Xiao Long did not deny it. It's a bit bad to say that it was stolen, but it's better to say that Lai Qianxiu took it behind her back when she wasn't at home, so it would be better.

"It's all the same, anyway, the antique store stored it with her first. If you put it in that woman's place, it might as well be put in me, a person with vision, and this little thing will be very happy. Antiques are the kind of things that will cry if they can't find a good home. ”

"It's okay for Chawan to cry, but what will happen if you hurt Lai Qianxiu too much?"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Long was originally leaning back in his chair proudly, but when he heard this, he got up slightly.

"Lately, her business hasn't been going well."

"Really?"

Because it came from Xia Zhifang's mouth, Xiao Long couldn't help but get serious. Xia Zhifang knows a lot of inside information, although he doesn't know how he got it, but he is very familiar with the inside story of the operation of large companies and the economic situation of small shops.

Therefore, Xia Zhifang said that Lai Qianxiu's store was in difficulty, and Xiao Long had to listen attentively.

"I'm not lying, some people say that her business woes have something to do with you."

"No kidding!" Although Xiao Long denied it on his face, Xia Zhifang's words made him a little frightened, "How do you know?" ”
