Chapter 67: Green Tea

"After another moment of silence, Yi Muyang spoke.“Tinglan, I’m sorry to drag you into this. You need to protect yourself.” Yimu Yang had a lot he wanted to say, but when it came to his lips, he sudde...Wen Jian was also asking from the side: "Ting Lan, are you going to Sheng Prui We're just going there too, let us take you >>> 。"Jia Jia only realized it later.

"Mr. Wen knows our lawyer Shu"

"Yes, we're old classmates." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。Wen Jian's tone was too familiar, like a real old classmate you get along with well. 。Shutinglan couldn't stand it anymore. From the moment they got into the elevator, she didn't want to talk to him, so just leave with Zhuo Yu'an quickly! But you came to provoke me instead

Shutinglan didn't believe that Wen Jian was a sentimental person, she did this on purpose. 。So she couldn't bear it any longer, and stared at Wen Jian coldly, asking:

“Are we just old classmates Is there no other relationship between us”

Shu Tinglan was thinking, back then, when she and her mother suddenly learned that their father had another family outside, it felt like a bolt from the blue. Adding to that, her father had passed away, leaving their pain hanging in the air. They wanted to ask why, but there was nowhere to ask. 。Waking up from the shock, she found it unbearably embarrassing, a source of shame that would become the laughingstock for all their relatives. She and her mother wanted to bury this secret deep within their pockets, desperate to keep it hidden from everyone. 。But now, she is fearless even without shoes on. Wen Jian should be more afraid of his illegitimate daughter's identity being exposed, shouldn't heShu Tinglan has always been superficially gentle but with a sharp edge underneath. 。If you don't come to bother me, I'll be sad and digest it myself. In the future, I'll avoid you and we'll live in peace. 。But if you come to provoke me, I'm not afraid of you. 。Wen Jian didn't care about her provocation, she just smiled easily; "Tinglan, you are still the same as always, nothing has changed." 。Compared to Shu Tinglan's tight and resentful attitude, Wen Jian was calm and composed, with an elegant smile. She treated you like a failure, completely unconcerned with your thoughts or feelings. 。Many years later, their first meeting, Shu Tinglan lost miserably. 。How can you not lose You've already lost mentally. 。For so many years, ever since she and her mother left Qingshu and struggled to make a living in Senzhou, they had never escaped the shadows of the past. 。Shuminhai left nothing for his family, and even the meager savings he had were frozen and taken away after the investigation. Relatives and friends were afraid of being implicated and dared not help the mother and daughter. 。While Wenjian and Wenlan moved overseas to live a life of luxury, with boundless skies and freedom, they naturally didn't bother thinking about the past. 。

Doomed to lose from the start

Shu Tinglan truly exerted immense willpower to control himself, not wanting to project a non-professional image. 。

Silently taking deep breaths, silently taking deep breaths, only to make himself look resilient and unbreakable.

We went to Shengpu to get information, and we took your ride. Thanks! 。It's just acting, you can act, and so can I. 。Zhuo Yu'an still drove himself, without a driver. 。Wen Jian sat in the co-pilot seat, Shu Tinglan and Jiajia sat in the back row. 。As soon as Shu Tinglan got in the car, she saw the jade pendant hanging from Zhuo Yu'an's rearview mirror. It was bought during Chinese New Year when they visited Huiyuan Temple. She thought it looked nice and, since it had been blessed in the temple, she hung it on his car casually. 。She was afraid it was too cheap, he wouldn't like it, but then he said it looked nice, and she kept wearing it. 。

Unexpectedly, it's still hanging there. 。Wen Jian also saw the pendant. In fact, he had seen it a few days ago. The pendant was indeed beautiful, but it didn't match this car or him at all. Naturally, he thought it wasn't bought by him, and it was very likely bought by that Lin Zhifei. 。"What is this jade" she reached out to take it. 。"The Hetian jade bar" 。Zuo Yu'an reached out his hand like he was holding a precious treasure, in the palm of my hand, without letting Wen Jian touch it. 。。

“Like” 。Zuo Yu'an let go of his hand, gripped the steering wheel, and began to focus on driving. 。

Going to Shengpulai is very close, if you take the subway, it's just one stop away. It's almost here. Jiagia naturally doesn't want to be ignored. If you miss this village, there won't be this shop. She sees few chances to meet Zhuo Yunan... 。But there was nothing to talk about. After thinking for a while, I brought up Shu Tinglan:

"Didn't our lawyer Shu say that she's high school classmates with Mr. Zhuo We didn't believe her at first, thought she was bragging..." 。It's like stirring up trouble where there is none. Shu Tinglan already didn't have a good impression of Jiajia, and now she just wants to roll her eyes at her. 。

"It's rare that Attorney Shu remembers we were high school classmates" 。Zhuo Yu'an had ignored Jiajia all along, finally responding to her with a sentence. 。Jia Jia happily said, "At the beginning when our law firm was competing for this project, none of us knew you. Our lawyer Shu volunteered to contact you and see if we could work together." 。The attempt didn't connect, and we got laughed at by our law firm's lawyers for a while. 。"I didn't notice. " 。Zhu Yu'an answered 。Wen Jianxiao: "You guys probably don't know much about President Zhuo. He's very clear about the difference between public and private matters, it doesn't matter who comes looking for him." 。You rightfully deserve to win this project with your superior capabilities. 。"Indeed, a confidante of beauty understands Zhu Yu'an better than anyone else." 。

The car quickly drove to Shengpu Rui Company, where the CEO of Shengpu Rui went directly to the garage to greet Zhuo YUAN and Wen Jian. 。Shu Tinglan and Jiajia went to their legal department to get some documents. 。Shutinglan had a lot she couldn't say before, but now that only she and Jiayia were left, she spoke plainly: "Jiayia, I don't like it when people make fun of me. If you want to find something to talk about in the future, please don't bring me into it." 。"

What’s with the stinginess, we’re just having a casual chat, you know" 。"

I refuse to be your casual conversation topic" 。"What's so great about '

' Isn't it just because Lawyer Zhou likes you and always speaks up for you with Director Xiao Who do you think you are" 。Jiajia never really looked up to Shu Tinglan. 。Besides being pretty, what else She comes from a poor family; supposedly her mother works as a nanny. She's currently living in a psychiatric hospital for long-term treatment. Could there be a genetic component to mental illness The chances of it being hereditary are very high. 。His education is also average. Although he graduated from a prestigious university, he only has a bachelor's degree, and there are plenty of others out there with similar qualifications. 。As for abilities, they're average at best. Otherwise, why would someone who has been working for three years after graduation end up in a law firm as a new recruit 。His personality was even more introverted, taciturn, and he would only bury himself in work. He didn't understand socializing. 。Jiajia found her annoying in every way, looked down upon her, she wasn't from the same social class. 。On the contrary, because she was beautiful and had Zhou Lawyer's backing, as well as Director Xiao's cultivation, he was ignored. 。Jia Jia had a knot in her heart. Why was this happening Her family background, educational background, and work ability were all better than Shu Tinglan's by more than a hundredfold. Why could Shu Tinglan be highly valued while she was relegated to doing marginal work

“Jia Jia, I don’t want to argue with you. Today is a day for us to focus on work.” 。"

One sentence, and Jiajia was speechless." 。She can be quite abrasive at times, but her tone conveys a sense of magnanimity. She doesn't hold Jiajia's words against her, and she comes across as serious and professional, someone who wouldn't engage in arguments out of place. 。

The two had reached Seng Pui's office and it was no longer appropriate to speak. 。

Green tea! Jiajia cursed inwardly. 。 yet" The nanny hurried to catch up and shouted."I'm done eating." He slung his bag over one shoulder and bent down to put on his shoes at the door."You can't skip it, I'll pack some for you to eat on...
