The day before yesterday, his lawyer said that the other party’s guardian and lawyer wanted a private settlent. He originally didn’t have the ti, as he had an appointnt with a patient that day, so he planned to let his lawyer go instead and not go himself. But because the police intervened in the matter, despite his injuries being minor, the nature of it wasn’t good; that brat was bound to spend ten to fifteen days inside. Lu Xize is very nice in every regard except being too soft-hearted. He thought that the other party was just a seventeen-year-old kid, who was a bit impulsive, which was normal, so he attended. That day, he accidentally left his phone at ho and didn’t contact the consulting office.
The matter had always been under Hou Bao’s interrogation, so when he got to the police station, Lu Xize first saw that brat Yun Yisheng. Under the watchful eyes of the police, he reluctantly apologized. Lu Xize being stubborn as he is was unlikely to accept such an apology and simply replied, "No need."
When Yun Xi arrived, both he and Yun Xi were stunned, looking at each other in disbelief. Yun Xi held his breath for a long ti before pointing at him and squeezing out a sentence: "So... the person who got hit by my little brother was you?"
"So... the totally rude and arrogant brat is your brother?" Naturally, Lu Xize wasn’t willing to fall behind and quickly retorted.
Yun Xi was left speechless for a mont; she had just learned about this. If the police hadn’t called her, she would have remained in the dark. For this, she had called the butler who took care of Yun Yisheng and scolded him severely, then stord to the police station, only to see Lu Xize.
Seeing his sister arrived, Yun Yisheng’s legs trembled, he instinctively took two steps back, turned his head sideways to look behind Yun Xi, and after confirming there was no one else, he grinned and said, "Hehe... Sis, wh-why are you here! Why didn’t Uncle Yuan co?"
"You still have the nerve to ntion Uncle Yuan, do you? How did I lecture you last ti? If you skip school again, I’ll be sure to break your legs. You have a mory problem, don’t you? Still daring to go to the bar, still daring to brawl, still daring to send soone to the hospital. Are you trying to reach heaven, or are you trying to drive insane?" As Yun Xi spoke, she gave Yun Yisheng two heavy smacks. Had it not been for being in the police station, she would have used both hands and feet, making sure he received a beating his parents wouldn’t even recognize.
After Yun Yisheng’s shoulders took those two smacks, he instantly behaved, lacking the previous look of disdain and arrogance, resembling a very obedient kid. His charming sunny face showed a pitiable expression.
Lu Xize found the scene interesting and reclined with crossed legs, watching the drama unfold, completely forgetting why he was there in the first place.
It wasn’t until the lawyer gently nudged him that he regained his senses, straightening his body, lightly coughing twice, pretending to be serious: "Ahem, let’s resolve this matter first! Although he’s a minor, I was indeed sent to the hospital by him."
Honestly, Lu Xize felt aggrieved inside, incredibly unlucky, especially after encountering Yun Xi. Every ti he t Yun Xi, none of those tis was he lucky.
Even this ti, getting his head whacked was her younger brother’s doing. Did he dig up the Yun family’s ancestral graves in his past life for them to do this to him?
Later, due to details in the situation, neither party coordinated successfully. After storming out of the police station, Lu Xize saw Yun Xi give her brother a thorough beating in a unique spectacle. After watching, he suddenly felt sympathetic toward Yun Yisheng, thinking one would pity him for having such a violent sister, making him consider dropping the case.
The next day, because it was a private settlent, while visiting the lawyer’s office, Lu Xize and Yun Xi argued again. The reason being, when Yun Xi was parking the car, she accidentally scraped Lu Xize’s car parked beside hers. So before even discussing the matter, they started fighting again, eventually solving it in the afternoon. Since Yun Xi was at fault, and the car was scraped, she begrudgingly treated him to a al.
"I took over your patient for the last two days; just have Wei Xuan organize the case files for you later." Jiang Baizhou looked at his bragging appearance and casually dismissed the topic, uninterested in knowing the details.
"Thank you," Lu Xize raised his eyebrows.
"Do you need sothing from ?"
"Yes."
"Speak."
"Well... my old man arranged a match for this week, and I need your help."
"No help."
"Don’t just cut off before hearing the plan! At least listen to before saying no; could you show so empathy?"
Jiang Baizhou glanced at him, finished packing his trash, got up, and threw it into the trash can nearby, remaining silent as if waiting for him to continue.
"Honestly, I’m not willing to go to the match. It’s not that I’m unwilling to et those won; it’s just this match was arranged by my old man." Lu Xize grimaced: "I don’t want him to dictate my decisions. You don’t have to do anything that day; just sit by and have dinner at my location, and I’ll give you signals. If the woman is pretty, you don’t need to do anything. If the woman is... just okay, acting too spoiled or sothing, you bring up your phone call to get out of there. Don’t worry; I’ll cover your al that day. Just choose whatever you want to eat, no holds barred."
"That’s all?"
"Absolutely." Lu Xize affird with a confident pat on the chest: "Also, regarding the ti when you and your wife went on a date to Milan, I managed the affairs in the consulting office for you. You can’t kick when I’m down; now’s the ti for you to return the favor."
Jiang Baizhou shifted his gaze, silent for a mont: "What day?"
"Saturday."
"What ti?"
"Seven in the evening, Sunset Star River Restaurant," Lu Xize raised an eyebrow, smiling as he asked, "Are you agreeing?"
"Only this once." Jiang Baizhou squinted slightly, replying calmly: "Consider it as repaying your favor from last ti."
"Great, then it’s settled, no takebacks!" Lu Xize patted the table exclaiming ’great,’ stood up with a smile, rubbed his chin thoughtfully: "What signals should we use for a secret code then?"
"That’s your responsibility, nothing to do with ; leave, my scheduled patient is about to arrive, notify once you’ve figured it out." Jiang Baizhou was indifferent, wiping down the table with a napkin, pulling over the nearby files and beginning to flip through them.
"Alright, I’ll ponder it and tell you later," Lu Xize joyfully fiddled with his car key, leaving Jiang Baizhou’s office with a content expression.
