Chapter 363: Good Upbringing

dentity, he was also undeniably elegant and handsome. Perhaps it was because he had had a little alcohol, but when their eyes met, two sentences from Lin Zhiyao flashed through her mind:Food and sex a...Today is Shu Tinglan's first day at work at Lanshan Law Firm.

The other day, I met with Lan Xiaoshan, the founder of Lanshan Law Firm, at the recommendation of Director Han. We had a detailed discussion about her career development direction.

As a legal professional, Lan Xiaoshan's name is widely known. He rose to fame at a young age after independently handling several high-profile cases that shocked the nation. In just a few years of work, he founded Lanshan Law Firm, expanding from initially handling criminal cases to other areas of litigation. His firm boasts powerful legal teams in each field, and he himself rarely takes on new cases. Besides managing the overall development direction of the firm, he also engages in philanthropy, gives lectures at universities, and publishes several bestselling books on law, enjoying a fulfilling life with both fame and fortune.

That day, she chatted with him in his office for an afternoon. She originally wanted to introduce some of her past work experience, but Lan Xiaoshan said it wasn't necessary.

"I've heard that you handled several cases very well before, and I've mentioned it to Director Han a few times. I wanted him to introduce you to Lanshan earlier. And Ms. Xiao Junhua, the managing director of Hongzheng Law Firm, whom we have also met, spoke highly of you."

Lan Xiao shan didn't hide his admiration for Shu Tinglan at all, so he no longer mentioned his past work experience. He only asked about Shu Tinglan's future plans. His job was to put the right people in the right positions.

Shu Tinglan currently has clients from several companies, and in terms of her professional abilities, she wants to develop in the field of commercial litigation. She no longer wants to handle civil or criminal cases. One is too miscellaneous, requiring her to deal with too many trivial matters. The other requires a strong heart to face various life tragedies. When she has the ability to choose, she naturally wants to avoid these two types of cases.

Lan Xiao shan immediately agreed to her request. She previously had experience as a corporate legal counsel, had worked on M&A projects for listed companies, and had handled criminal litigation cases. Although it seemed that she hadn't focused deeply in any one area, if she pursued commercial litigation, these experiences combined would be a significant plus, making her a perfect fit.

Not until everything was settled did Lan Xiaoshan speak.

“The partners in our commercial litigation team have all left to start their own firm. They just finished the handover last month, so the commercial team doesn't currently have any partners. Currently, Lawyer Li Anna is leading a team of 6 people responsible for the work. When you join, you can also recruit suitable lawyers according to the requirements to assist you. I believe that you and Lawyer Li Anna will complement each other well and bring the commercial group to new heights.”

Lan Xiaoshan, being a shrewd businessman, arranged things clearly for Shu Tinglan. On the surface, he made it seem like she and Lawyer Li would coexist peacefully, but in reality, he placed them in a competitive relationship. Whoever performs better will be promoted to the position of business partner in the future.

Shu Tinglan's pressure instantly became immense.

During her years at Sun Lawyer's firm in the city, although she had a lot of work and many cases, things were relatively easy because Sun Lawyer was very laid-back. Plus, there weren't many lawyers in the firm overall, so there wasn't any cutthroat competition or pressure to climb the ladder. In terms of her position, she was overly comfortable.

But it's different in Senzhou, especially at places like Lan Shan Law Firm with hundreds of lawyers. The competitive pressure is unimaginable. She's like an amateur swimmer suddenly thrown into the national team, and the coach keeps encouraging her, "You can do it, you're capable, you can even surpass the professional swimmers."

Pressure is the driving force, since it comes, it must be done with all one's might.

That day, when Guo Ran interviewed Shu, she was surprised to see Lan Xiaoshan personally escort her for onboarding. Guo Ran still remembered sarcastically saying that day: "With Ms. Shu's work experience, she should be a partner."

Since Blue Lawyer can personally handle the onboarding, he definitely isn't an ordinary lawyer; usually these are partners-level. So my sarcastic remarks that day now feel a bit embarrassing.

When handling Shu Tinglan's onboarding, his attitude wasn't very good.

Li Anna is the most well-connected over there. She's worked at Lanshan Law Firm for seven or eight years and has a great relationship with HR, Guo Ran. So she was the first to send a message to Guo Ran.

"Could you please send me a copy of Ms. Shu's resume"

Guo Ran didn't say a word, and secretly took a photo of Shu Tinglan's resume and sent it to Li Anna.

"Delete after reading." It was understood, no unnecessary words.

Li Anna saw Shu Tinglan's resume.

Divorced!

Mommy of two!

The work experience of the little law firm in an obscure city.

After reading the resume, Li Anna breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't even in the same league as her own qualifications, she thought. Probably Lan Xiaoshan had been asked by Han, the head of the Law Association, to give her a chance out of face.

Since she wasn't a competitor, she welcomed Shu Tinglan with open arms. She also promised Lan Xiaoshan that she would take good care of Lawyer Shu.

“It’s great that our business team has some fresh blood.”

"Mr. Shu, it was a pleasure working with you and I look forward to our future collaborations."

After several other lawyers had come over to greet her, they all went back to their work.

Shu Tinglan found a spot to sit down. She deliberately chose a seat with an empty space next to her because she had promised Xiao Xin that once she was settled, she would bring her over.

The first day at Lanshan Law Firm was a bit hectic, but thankfully, all the necessary procedures were completed, the assigned work was taken over, and everyone I needed to meet was introduced. By the end of the workday, it felt like a smooth transition.

When Zhuo Yu'an called, she had just left the law firm.

He didn't mention Cheng Zhimin coming to Senzhou at all on the phone, he only said...

Let's go out for dinner tonight to celebrate you finding a satisfying job and successfully starting your new role.

The children shouted from the side: "Mom, come out soon, we're waiting for you."

Her heart warmed, she put down her phone and walked towards Zhuo YUAN's car in the distance.

He drives a low-key car, a business type that's specifically for picking up and dropping off children. There is one seat per child in the back, with a fixed safety seat on each seat, making it both safe and spacious.

Shu Tinglan proactively took the passenger seat and didn't ask where they were going to eat. She trusted him to make the arrangements. In terms of food, lodging, transportation, etc., Zhuo YUAN was much more meticulous than her. As he said, following him out, all she needed to do was arrive; everything else was taken care of.

He had everything planned perfectly. Since it was a celebration for her new job, he didn't compromise by going to a children's restaurant. They went to a romantic Italian restaurant, and the children were well-behaved, sitting in their high chairs and learning table manners from their father. They found it both novel and enjoyable.

The whole family is incredibly good-looking, especially the two well-behaved and beautiful children who are hard to resist admiring. The waiter was worried that the two three-year-old kids coming in would be noisy and disturb other customers, but they weren't at all. They were very quiet, even speaking softly on purpose.
