Listing to Lin Yun and Hang Lee's conversation, Xia Qingqing blushed with embarrassmt.
However, she didn't say anything, just felt sweetness in her heart.
"Qingqing, Lin Yun, I'm sorry I'm late. I got stuck in traffic." At that momt, a taxi stopped not far away. Zhong Ling hurriedly got out of the taxi and walked fast towards them, apologizing profusely.
After Lin Yun's case was over, so files needed to be organized. Moreover, the higher-ups at the law firm wanted to take Lin Yun as their clit from Zhong Ling. So they let her stay back at the office to sort out the follow-up documts. However, it didn't matter wh or who sorted out those files, it was just a societal rule.
However, what those higher-ups didn't expect was that Lin Yun had no inttion to discuss deeply with them.
"Sister Zhong." Xiao Qingqing walked over and held onto Zhong Ling's arm happily.
The two stunning beauties standing together ford a dazzling scery.
"Attorney Zhong." Lin Yun gave a slight smile and said.
"Lin Yun, we're familiar now, and Qingqing is my junior. You don't need to keep calling Attorney Zhong. You can just call Zhong Ling." Zhong Ling laughed.
"Alright." Lin Yun nodded.
It's just a way of addressing, changing it was no big deal.
Moreover, as Zhong Ling said, they were already very familiar. Always calling her Attorney Zhong indeed made things seem a bit aliated.
"Lin Yun, I've be aning to apologize to you for the last case and invite you for a al. What about now..." Zhong Ling paused before she said.
"I've told you before, I don't bla you for what happed with the last case. But, I do need to thank you for your help with this one. How about this, later I have to accompany Qingqing for a street shopping, we can invite you for a dinner so other day?" Lin Yun shook his head and said.
"How can that be..." Zhong Ling retorted.
In her view, she didn't handle Lin Yun's case properly last ti, which was indicative of her lack of ability. This ti, she didn't think she had helped Lin Yun much.
Because Lin Yun paid a lot of money this ti, with that money, he could have hired any law firm to solve the matter. Instead, Lin Yun was offering her a huge achievemt this ti.
However, upon seeing Xia Qingqing, she nodded and said, "It can be. But next ti, wh I call you, you can't ignore or not return my calls, okay?"
She was a smart girl and knew that Qingqing and Lin Yun wanted to spd so ti together. Naturally, she couldn't disturb them.
Anyway, as long as Lin Yun was willing to have a al with her, it didn't matter who paid for the al. She could always apologize so other ti.
"No problem." Lin Yun nodded.
Th, after exchanging a few more words with Zhong Ling, Lin Yun left in Hang Lee's car with Xia Qingqing.
The sior mbers of the law firm, who had no chance to join in the conversation, grudgingly remained silt.
They thought they could take over Lin Yun, a major clit, by keeping Zhong Ling out of it.
Unexpectedly, the clit only acknowledged Zhong Ling.
Luckily, Zhong Ling did decide to co in the d. Otherwise, they might have lost Lin Yun, their big clit.
Thinking of this, the sior official of the law firm who had offered a car ride to Lin Yun walked over to Zhong Ling's side and said earnestly, "Ling, you did very well this ti. It seems that you have a good relationship with Mr. Lin. So, I'll leave this clit for you to maintain. Try to take as many cases from Mr. Lin as possible whever he needs a lawyer."
"Director Wang, I'll try..." Zhong Ling hesitated for a momt and th nodded.
Originally, she thought needing a lawyer frequtly wasn't a good thing.
Both tis wh she took Lin Yun's case, it was wh he was unlucky.
Didn't her leaders seem to be cursing Lin Yun with their commts?
In her heart, Xia Qingqing and Lin Yun were already her frids, and she naturally wouldn't want to curse Lin Yun.
However, she th rembered that big companies oft needed lawyers. If Lin Yun indeed had a big backg, there was a real chance they might need a lawyer regularly. In that case, there might still be opportunities for their law firm to continue working with Lin Yun.
But, giv her personality, she didn't want to impose on others.
That's why at that momt, she just agreed with Director Wang. If there was an opportunity in the future, she could mtion it to Lin Yun. If Lin Yun didn't want to use their law firm by th, she wouldn't force him.
"All right, Ling. Keep up the good work. I have faith in you." Director Wang, unaware of what Zhong Ling was thinking, smiled and nodded.
Several powerful lawyers behind Director Wang looked viously at Zhong Ling.
For this business deal, Zhong Ling, the contact person, would get a dect commission.
They had earlier noticed that Lin Yun was the one involved in the case that many lawyers in their law firm were reluctant to handle a few days earlier. At that ti, it was the beautiful girl beside Lin Yun who ca to their firm. They had a deep impression of the beautiful girl.
In the d, Zhong Ling took that case.
They guessed that Zhong Ling must have beco acquainted with Lin Yun during that case.
Who could have imagined that they had so much money?
Had they known this, they would not have turned down that case last ti.
Thinking so, they were all filled with regret.
A gold opportunity had be completely missed by them.
...
In Hang Lee's car, Lin Yun marveled once again at the allure of money.
He now understood why so childr of the rich behaved so arrogantly.
Because wh you have ough money, you really can do a lot of things.
Let alone, many rich people oft have so official power behind them.
"Money is to be made... power is to be had..."
A bright gleam flashed in the depths of Lin Yun's eyes.
"Zhong Ling..."
The image of Zhong Ling flashed in Lin Yun's mind.
Once upon a ti, wh he just arrived in Sh City, he had worked nurous jobs and understood the many issues betwe bosses and employees and among employees themselves. Later, wh he had be a boss for four to five years, he t all sorts of characters and managed a team of a doz or so people. Seeing the higher-ups at the law firm greeting him, he furrowed his brows.
Zhong Ling was the first person he had interacted with and her absce was likely due to her having be targeted at the law firm.
For this reason, he didn't gage much with the higher-ups at the law firm.
Without sufficit power on his side, he would likely need lawyers frequtly, but he needed to find soone he could trust. Zhong Ling had a good personality so he was considering using her as a diator in the future.
He also needed to consider security guards and bodyguards later. After accompanying Qingqing on her shopping, he could also give that so thought.
Soon after, Hang Lee brought Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing to one of his gold jewelry stores.
Lin Yun originally didn't want to go, but Hang Lee kept insisting.
In the d, Lin Yun decided to go so he could buy so jewelry for Xia Qingqing.
Lee's Jewelry Store.
This was the na of Hang Lee's gold jewelry store, a very common na.
The words "First Store" were marked behind the store's na, indicating that Lee's Jewelry Store had multiple branches.
"This jewelry store is quite big..."
As soon as he tered the store, Lin Yun couldn't help but remark.
Spotting the store was a 500 square ters. Giv the high property prices in Sh City, the value of such a storefront was incredibly high and the rt was probably not low either.
Unlike the previous hotel, high-d hotels gerally do not op in bustling areas because they are too noisy, and the cost performance is not high.
For a hotel, only the first floor storefront was worth so money. The value of the upper floors was considerably less.
However, this store was located at the cter of a bustling marketplace. Ev though the shop only asured 500 square ters or so, its rtal might ev exceed that of the 7,000 square ter hotel.
"I used to work in real estate in the early years. I didn't accumulate much of anything else, but I did accumulate quite a few properties. This shop is one of the properties I saved up. Back th, this place was not developed much, and the value of this shop wasn't very high.
However, this shop is by far the most prestable storefront I have, so I used it as the main store for my gold and jewelry chain..." Hang Lee laughed and said.
"This storefront is also yours, Brother Lee?" Lin Yun was guinely astonished.
He hadn't expected Hang Lee's assets to be so substantial.
The value of this storefront must be in the hundreds of millions.
Adding to that the over 7,000 square ter hotel, these two properties alone made Hang Lee's assets surpass three billion.
Plus several gold and jewelry stores, hotels, high-d restaurants...
Lin Yun estimated that Hang Lee's assets were, at least, upwards of five billion.
This wasn't ev considering Hang Lee's other properties. From what Hang Lee suggested, he had other properties as well.
In Sh City, property was the most valuable and storefronts were especially expsive.
It's no wonder that he didn't care about the hotel valued at over t million.
Lin Yun sighed deeply.
