Xie Yunkai arrived quickly and as he entered, his face was etched with embarrassnt, "I was thinking of bringing you guys so milk tea, but Xiaoxiao said drinking too much milk tea will make you gain weight, so... I ca empty-handed."
"Don’t be so polite."
Ye Lixiao pointed at the exceptionally cute Lu Xiaoxiao, who was all smiles, "Consider it as if I’m enticing you with delicacies. Be nice to my little Xiaoxiao."
???
In just a week’s ti, she has beco ’yours’?
Looking at the smiling Ye Li.
Then at the proud Lu Xiaoxiao.
Xie Yunkai nodded with a laugh, "Okay. When Xiaoxiao and I get married, if you’re willing, I’d like you to be the bridesmaid."
!!!
"Xie! Yun! Kai!"
Lu Xiaoxiao blushed with embarrassnt.
Ye Li’s eyes curved into crescent moons as she laughed, signaling that she would respectfully partake in this dog food feast first.
As they ate and chatted, the room was filled with constant laughter.
On the other hand, the atmosphere in the office of Lingying Law Firm was sowhat tense.
"Xiao Tang, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but sotis you’re really a bit stubborn, why won’t you listen?"
Tang Yanhui’s superior, Vice Director Wu, said as he knocked on the desk, "That college student’s reputation infringent case you’re handling, how much money is that bringing in? The divorce case I’m handing you, however, involves clients worth millions. Once this case is over, not to ntion the revenue for our firm, you personally would earn a tidy sum, far more important than your trivial cases, don’t you think?"
"Director Wu, that’s not the way to put it. Once a case has been accepted, there should be an order of precedence, right?"
Tang Yanhui replied seriously, "But rest assured, I should be able to wrap up my case in the next couple of days. I won’t delay the divorce case."
Stubborn mule!
Vice Director Wu’s smile did not reach his eyes, "Regardless of the case, the essence lies in timing. You can wait, but do you think the client can wait? While his wife is currently in the throes of crying, making a fuss, and threatening suicide, you should take the opportunity to talk and maybe they will quickly agree to a divorce. Wait for two or three days, and the opportunity might be lost!"
"Xiao Tang, unless I’m mistaken, you’ve been with Lingying for only a little over twenty days, and you haven’t even completed your probation period, right?"
With everything said and done, Tang Yanhui’s face changed color, but he still showed no sign of changing his mind.
Director Wu’s face imdiately darkened.
"Fine then!"
He extended his chubby hand to take back the docunts he had pushed towards Tang Yanhui and said coldly, "Lingying isn’t short of lawyers. Since you’re busy with cases, you should carry on. I’ll assign the divorce case to soone else."
After saying this, without another glance at Tang Yanhui, Director Wu picked up the phone and pressed the intercom, "Lawyer Chen, co to my office."
It was useless to say more at this point. Tang Yanhui nodded and pushed the door to leave.
Behind him, Vice Director Wu scornfully glared at Tang Yanhui’s back.
He had thought that by bringing in so illustrious figure, things would be different. Now, it appeared to be nothing but a fool who couldn’t tell the difference between what’s important and what’s trivial.
Ignoring a case that could both raise his profile and earn money to waste ti bantering with university students.
Utter foolishness!
Tang Yanhui went back to his desk and started recording data on his computer.
He had spoken with several involved students that afternoon, and they all acknowledged their mistakes and were willing to apologize publicly.
Although there was still a lot to settle, with Vice Principal Liu willing to cooperate, bringing everyone together for a discussion, he believed it could be handled in two or three days.
The sooner it was resolved, the sooner Ye Li could rest easy.
While Lawyer Chen, who had been called into Director Wu’s office, returned.
The office area was bustling with everyone congratulating Lawyer Chen on landing the high-value legal fees of the divorce case.
So people couldn’t understand Tang Yanhui’s stubbornness.
Others discussed his past unsociability.
Naturally, the conversation turned to him.
Tang Yanhui, holding his coffee cup, stopped right outside the office door.
