Chapter 397: 397 dogs, just started biting each other like that
“A few friendly reminders for you. First, Yan Shixiu secretly remarried; your sister charging in like this could easily ruin her reputation. Second, helping Yan Ziqing confront Yan Shixiu? Is she really a top lawyer?”
The party was questioned by Shi Lan until their face turned red.
“Do you want to indulge your sister’s reckless behavior, or take my case? Think it over. I’ll wait for your call, and please, keep our conversation today confidential.”
“Of course.” The other party did not imdiately agree to Shi Lan, but from his perspective, this woman seed far more level-headed than his own sister.
Being a rising star in the industry and then lurking around soone else’s company building, she’s tossed away all dignity of a lawyer.
Moreover, as he knew, the tension between Yan Shixiu and the Yan Family had already reached an irreparable stage. Even if a lawsuit was really necessary, one should stand by Yan Shixiu’s side. Yet his sister actually went to help Yan Ziqing? Had she lost her mind?
Gu Yingnan’s brother drove near Shuangshi to verify whether Shi Lan was deceiving him. Then he called Gu Yingnan and asked where she was.
Sitting in the car, Gu Yingnan told her brother, “I’m discussing details with the client.”
Little did she know, her brother was right behind her.
Her brother scoffed coldly, hung up the phone, then walked over to Gu Yingnan’s car and knocked on her window: “Are you discussing details with ghosts?”
Gu Yingnan was stunned, “Brother… you… ”
“Co back to the office with . Aren’t you embarrassed enough? A respectable lawyer loitering around the building, do you think you’re peddling outside?” Gu Yingnan’s brother was furious then sternly said, “Follow , now!”
Gu Yingnan had no choice but to follow her brother.
Once back at the office, the siblings began arguing.
“What were you thinking, guarding the entrance of Shuangshi like a door deity?”
“Brother… I had a reason for doing so.”
“I know you want to catch a big fish and get close to Yan Shixiu, but you need the fate for it. Yan Shixiu remarried secretly, didn’t you know? You think I don’t know what you’re plotting? Fighting a lawsuit for the Yan Family, do you think Shuangshi’s legal team is vegetarian?” Gu Yingnan’s brother shouted angrily.
“Impossible, Ziqing never told …”
“Of course, she wouldn’t tell you because she wants to use you, that little bitch has always known about your feelings for Yan Shixiu,” Gu Yingnan’s brother scoffed, “And you still have the face to confront her? What, being a lawyer for a few years, and you think you can wear the hat of a mistress? Aren’t you ashad?”
Gu Yingnan turned pale and flushed, scolded into speechlessness by her own brother.
“I’ve already taken An Lan’s and the Celestial King’s contract termination case, so you better cut off all ties with the Yan Family, lest you get dragged into account settling later that affects others.”
Gu Yingnan looked up at her big brother, then uncertainly asked, “Brother, are you sure that Yan Shixiu has remarried?”
“Why would soone unrelated lie to ? I think the person who inford is much more reliable than you, able to see the situation clearly in just a few words, unlike you, who gets confused at the ntion of Yan Shixiu.”
Gu Yingnan’s expression grew increasingly ugly.
Suddenly, she rembered what Yan Shixiu said yesterday, “I don’t dine with any woman other than my wife.”
That must have been a pointed remark.
So, she strongly suspected that it was Yan Ziqing who had deceived and used her, and now she was seething with anger.
“Brother, you take An Lan’s case.”
“Of course I will. An Lan lets na my price; can Yan Ziqing still afford legal fees?” Gu Yingnan’s brother scoffed, “An Lan, a person who can stir up a storm with the Celestial King, I believe she is no simple character. However, once this news gets out, the Yan Family will certainly reach out to you.”
“As long as they dare, I will accompany them to the end.”
…
The dogs, thus began to bite one another.
