Tang Xi'en also looked at Teng Zhongqian.

If she remembers correctly, the current dean of G Academy should be in his 50s to [-]s, but the one in front of him, who looks only in his early forties, is really young, and it is difficult to associate him with the most powerful person in the domestic judicial field. .

"Where is Xiaotang now?" Teng Zhongqian put down his teacup and asked with a smile.

"Huh?" Tang Xi'en withdrew his gaze and replied politely, "I just left Fu's and I'm preparing for a partnership."

Fu Shiyu, who was sitting on the side, added: "Since Sheen came back from the United States, she has practiced outside Guantao for two years. After the contract with Guantao expired last year, Fu just needed someone, so I asked her to help for two years." Three months."

Teng Zhongqian nodded, turned his gaze back to Tang Xi'en, and said with a smile, "Was Little Tang in America before?"

This question was obviously for Tang Xien, but Tang Xien was in a daze for some reason and didn't answer for a moment. Fu Shiyu, who was sitting next to her, glanced at her and answered for her: "She was studying for a JD degree at Harvard before. go home."

"Hmm..." Teng Zhongqian nodded, pondered for a moment and then looked at Tang Xien, with a flash of appreciation in his eyes, "The threshold for law schools in the United States is quite high, and the selection is very cruel, let alone the law schools of the first-level universities. Yes. Xiao Tang is very good, and he is very clear about his own advantages. It is very good to go in the direction of foreign affairs! After our country joins the WTO, legal talents dealing with international trade disputes are very popular! Xiao Tang has a bright future!"

"..." Tang Xi'en was stuck and couldn't answer a sentence. I don't know if it was because he was nervous when he saw Dean Teng for the first time, or because he was thinking about something.

Fu Shiyu glanced at her worriedly, thinking that she was nervous and shy, so he answered for her: "Yes, Xi En's practice direction is what you just said. She also studied economics at the University of Hong Kong as an undergraduate. Very good at handling trade disputes."

He just mentioned the several trade dispute cases that Tang Xien successfully handled for Fu last year.

Teng Zhongqian nodded while listening, the appreciation for Tang Xien in his eyes, just like Master Fu, had reached the point where he couldn't hide it, or in other words, he never thought of hiding his appreciation for her in front of this outstanding junior.

It's just that Tang Xi'en was distracted the whole time, staring at the teacup in front of him in a daze for a while, and staring at Teng Zhongqian in a daze for a while.

While chatting, Mrs. Teng came in from the outside and greeted: "Dinner is ready, let's all come in and eat."

Fu Shiyu stood up and greeted her.

It may be due to her natural personality, Mrs. Teng did not have the enthusiasm of Teng Zhongqian, she only exchanged a few words with Fu Shiyu, and then returned to the restaurant.

Tang Xi'en looked at Mrs. Teng's cold look, and thought to himself: Why is such a kind and warm man like Dean Teng paired with such a cold Mrs. Teng?
Both Teng Zhongqian and Uncle Gu warmly greeted Fu Shiyu and Tang Xien to stay for dinner. Afraid that Tang Xien would be uncomfortable, Fu Shiyu left Gu's house with Tang Xien on the pretext of going back to the old house to accompany his grandfather.

Before leaving, Teng Zhongqian gave Tang Xien a business card, telling her that she could call him to discuss any difficulties in her future work.

What he said was "discussion". Such a high-ranking person has no airs at all, and he gave Tang Xi'en, a junior, full respect.

Tang Xi'en accepted the business card, feeling a lump in his throat.

On the way back, she told Fu Shiyu, "President Teng is really nice."

Fu Shiyu also expressed emotion: "Yes, Dean Teng is really kind. He is kind to the elderly and younger. He is very respectful and has a high quality."

"But," Tang Xien's hand subconsciously tightened Fu Shiyu's hand, "Mrs. Teng doesn't seem easy to get along with."

Fu Shiyu smiled and said in a low voice, "Your intuition is quite accurate. Mrs. Teng and Dean Teng are two different people. Mrs. Teng is cold and strict. I have never seen her smile since I was a child. The whole world owes her looks."

Tang Xien said "ah" in surprise: "Why is this happening? She is so beautiful and has a temperament, and she has a husband like Dean Teng, why is she doing this?"

Fu Shiyu didn't answer any more, until he took Tang Xi'en back to Fu's courtyard and closed the door, then he said in a low voice: "I heard that after Dean Teng got engaged to her, he fell in love with other girls, and there was a lot of trouble. To break off the engagement with her. This was a very serious matter back then. She was a respectable young lady of the Gu family, and her father and brother were high officials at the time. They felt that they lost face and couldn't accept such a thing, so there was a rift between the couple. Alright."

Tang Xi'en never expected that one day he would hear the gossip between the dean of G and his wife, and he was so shocked that he could hardly keep his mouth shut.

Fu Shiyu rubbed her head, took her into the inner courtyard, and explained as he walked: "Okay, don't talk about these things, let's talk about it ourselves."

Tang Xien shook his head to express that he knew.

She was still holding that plain business card tightly in her hand. For some reason, she felt that she and Dean Teng could meet again.

When the two of them entered the room, Mr. Fu was watching TV in the inner hall. Seeing them coming back, he hurriedly asked them to sit there: "Introduction to Xiao Tang and Dean Teng?"

Tang Xi'en said "hmm": "I've been talking with Dean Teng until now."

Mr. Fu smiled, and asked again: "Did you ask Dean Teng to give you some advice?"

Tang Xi'en pursed her lips, embarrassed to say that she had been staring at Dean Teng in a daze the whole time.

Fu Shiyu took off his coat, walked over and sat down, and said with a smile, "Of course, otherwise, what do you think you've been talking about for two hours?"

Mr. Fu nodded in satisfaction, leaned back on the sofa, raised his hand to pick his ears, and snorted disdainfully: "Old Gu, when his granddaughter became a prosecutor two years ago, he kept whispering in my ear. After a month, I heard that my bird was afraid of seeing him!"

"President Teng's daughter is a prosecutor?" Fu Shiyu was slightly taken aback, "Isn't his daughter quite young? How old is she to be a prosecutor?"

"The girl didn't go to school after graduating from her undergraduate degree. She went directly to work as a clerk in the suburban court of the county court below, and she came up from the bottom!"

"How old is it?" Fu Shiyu asked.

Mr. Fu thought for a while: "Maybe it's about the same as our little Tang, it doesn't look very big."

Tang Xi'en, who had been quietly listening to their conversation, nodded and said, "It's amazing to be a prosecutor in your twenties."

Master Fu looked disdainful, and said arrogantly: "Who doesn't know that his family has a relationship. Let me see, we Xiao Tang are the ones who can achieve results through hard work like this."

Fu Shiyu was also quite puzzled: "Dean Teng only has one daughter?"

"That's right," Master Fu said, "Dean Teng is still an only child. It stands to reason that he could have another one when the 'separate second child' was implemented back then. For some reason, only this daughter was born. It is probably due to the relationship between husband and wife. good relationship..."

Having said that, the old man realized that he was talking too much, so he stopped talking.
