Back in Hangzhou, Xu Huaisong began to work at the law firm from 9 to 5, devoting more energy to Zhou Jun's case.

Ruan Yu knew what this was for.

In the old case ten years ago, the predecessors have tried their best. As a lawyer, it is difficult for him to do more for it.

But they all saw how Xu's mother felt guilty for ten years, how Xu's father bears the infamy, how angry the family members of the victim were, and how the suspects who had been acquitted were down and down.

All three families were bruised and bruised in that case.

Xu Huaisong was helpless, so he tried to find some hope in the similar Zhou Jun case.

If Zhou Jun's case can be revealed, if the tragedy can be prevented from recurring, he can prove it to his mother, maybe his father did nothing wrong.

He is busy with the case, and Ruan Yu is boring at home, but if you don't need to look around, you will get up early and stick to him, go to the law firm to change the script with him, saying that you can save electricity bills at home.

Xu Huaisong didn't expose her. He paid for the electricity bill of the law firm, as well as his own money.

Most of the month passed, because Zhou Jun always insisted on pleading innocence during the interrogation, and the factual evidence was insufficient, the procuratorate proposed to conduct supplementary investigations on the case.

For this reason, Zhang Ling and Xu Huaisong, who had been wrestling with each other day and night, finally got a breather.

But Ruan Yu pinched his fingers and found that he was about to return to the United States.

Fearing that he would "take off suddenly" like last time, Ruan Yu deliberately asked him in advance this time.

Xu Huaisong was busy working at the computer, took a sip of the milk she handed over, and said, "You can leave a few days later than originally planned."

"Can the trial time be postponed arbitrarily?"

Xu Huaisong shook his head: "It's not a court trial. I went back and forth to rush to sign a few important documents that were just generated two days ago. You can't use electronic signatures and you can't bear the risk of mailing."

"So don't you need to sign now?"

"To sign."

"Then why not go?"

Ruan Yu blinked a little puzzled. Xu Huaisong's speech has always been accurate and precise, and it is rare to say that it is not clean once or twice.

What's going on here?

He said silently: "Come here."

Ruan Yu walked over without knowing it, and then he was caught in his arms.

After she sat firmly on his lap, Xu Huaisong explained: "Lv Shenglan just happened to come to work in China. He said that he could take the documents to me for signing and take them back to San Francisco with him."

It turned out that this was the way to stay with her for a few more days. No wonder it was vague.

Ruan Yu stagnated and nodded to indicate that he knew.

Xu Huaisong looked down at her: "Don't think too much about it. You don't need to meet just a few documents. I ask Xiao Chen to fetch them for me."

"Yeah..." Ruan Yu said after a long voice, "I'm not thinking about this, I just think...she can help you, I'll ask you to toss for me."

"Colleagues originally shared the work with each other. Besides, I am not tossing for you."

"Ok?"

Xu Huaisong smiled: "If I can't see you, I feel uncomfortable first."

Ruan Yu didn't say anything, but the tail of his eyes raised with a smile, put his arm around his neck, kissed his chin, and touched it.

Xu Huaisong lowered his head and wrestled with her lips thirty times the time.

Three days later, Ruan Yu went to Huanshi to hold a script meeting as usual.

Xu Huaisong escorted her to the door and told her to keep correspondence at all times as before and avoid placing orders. If she meets Wei Jin, stay natural.

The police's secret touch is deepening. As an insider, Ruan Yu has to pretend to be unaware, so after getting out of the car, he secretly previewed the details of expressions and words in his heart.

But the reality is that she doesn't need to consider the question of "Which one will Peking University and Tsinghua University choose?" Because half a day passed, the meeting room on the seventh floor was quiet for years, and Wei Qiuji, who was on the nineteenth floor, did not get down.

Just when she was feeling lucky, during lunch time, she saw the secretary of producer Zheng Shan coming to deliver milk tea.

The brand and taste are exactly the same as last time.

An idea was flashing in her mind, and she received a WeChat message confirming the idea.

Li Zhican: [Don't be nervous, I'm on the 19th floor. 】

It turns out that good luck is fake.

It was Li Zhican who found another reason to blow the air conditioner on the 19th floor, which saved her from possible contact with Wei Jin.

She replied: [Thank you, I have troubled you, and wasted your day. 】

Li Zhican: [It's okay, I'm idle, the air conditioner here is so good and it doesn't require money. 】

She didn't reply again. Just about to press the lock screen button, she suddenly noticed a new friend request below.

Click to open it, it seems that it is a newly registered user, the avatar is still the default, the verification content: [Hello, this is Lu Shenglan. 】

Ruan Yu was taken aback.

The day before yesterday, Lu Shenglan asked his assistant to send the information to the law firm. He did not meet with Xu Huaisong, and now he should have taken back the documents he signed. What does it mean to add her WeChat suddenly?

She couldn't figure it out and accepted it.

Lu Shenglan sent a message soon, straight to the point: [Hello Miss Ruan, take the liberty to disturb you. I'm back to the United States today. Before I leave, I would like to buy you a cup of tea, if it is convenient for you. 】

Ruan Yu did have a lunch break.

But why did she suddenly invite her to drink tea?

Her hand paused on the screen for a long time. She was about to exit the dialog box and ask Xu Huaisong what was going on. Then she saw her message: [I didn’t mean anything else, I just wanted to talk to you about Huaisong. The situation in the United States, if possible, please keep him secret for the time being. 】

The situation in the United States?

Ruan Yu frowned and typed: [I'm looking around, I only have an hour. 】

Lu Shenglan: [Then I'll drive over, can you get to the main entrance in ten minutes? 】

Nephrite: [Yes. 】

Ruan Yu arrived at the door of Huanshi and got in Lu Shenglan's car.

She was still in a neat professional attire. When she saw Ruan Yu, she took off her sunglasses and greeted her. Then she was speechless until she entered the box in the tea room opposite.

Tea was served, and it seemed that the person opposite was still brewing. Ruan Yu tentatively asked, "How does Miss Lu know my WeChat ID?"

Lu Shenglan lowered his head and smiled: "That's the time."

With just four words, the atmosphere suddenly freezes.

Lu Shenglan immediately raised his eyes: "I am sorry for what happened that day, but today I am not here to apologize to you. What I am going to say next will make you a new apology, but these words, if I do not say , You may never know."

Ruan Yu frowned.

After coming out of the tea room and returning to Huanshi, Ruan Yu was absent-minded throughout the afternoon. He was named by the producer several times, and he didn't even hear the discussion.

It was not until the end of the evening that Xu Huaisong said that he had reached the door, and she cheered up and went downstairs.

In the lobby on the first floor, Li Zhican was sitting on the sofa with his elbows playing with a mobile phone, watching her come out of the elevator, and glanced up at her.

Ruan Yu was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood.

He should have calculated the time to end the meeting and came here to make sure she went home safely.

Although it seems a little fuss.

Ruan Yu glanced back at him gratefully, walked out of the hall, and got into Xu Huaisong's passenger seat. After wearing the seat belt, he did not see the car leaving.

Xu Huaisong tilted his head, his eyes still falling in the direction of the hall.

Ruan Yushun looked at him and saw Li Shican glance over here, then took the phone and turned his head and left.

She explained: "He was because of..."

"I know." Xu Huaisong interrupted her.

Although it was far away, he could understand Li Zhican's intentions at a glance.

He said: "Very good, he can rest assured that your safety is the most important thing."

Ruan Yu glanced at his expression, and saw that he should be truly relieved, so he didn't say much, tilted his head and leaned against the back of the chair.

Xu Huaisong turned her head to see her sorrowful expression, and asked, "What's the matter?"

She opened her mouth and closed it again, and shook her head silently: "No, I'm tired from the meeting."

"Then don't go back to cook, eat out at night."

"Ok."

The car started slowly and poured into the endless stream.

Ruan Yu turned his head out of the window and watched the sky darken a little bit. The tall street lamps beside the road were lit up one after another, just like Lu Shenglan's flat sentence after sentence at noon, taking what she hadn't seen before, Xu Huai Song's world slowly illuminates.

She said: "You probably don't know why Huai Song chose to study law in the first place. In fact, he didn't understand his father from the beginning. At that time, he also felt that Uncle Xu was like'taking people's money and helping others to eliminate disasters.' The villain. So he originally chose to study in the U.S. because he wanted to be a lawyer who was different from him. Now, looking back, it is a bit naive and a bit funny."

"It's not easy for a yellow race to be there. I'm fine, I've been used to it since I was young, and I have many friends at school. But he doesn't. He alone, when he is discriminated against and treated unfairly, he only talks about his grades."

"The Americans did eat this. When his grades repeatedly topped the list, they gradually became convinced that the Chinese boy was a genius. But they didn’t know that the genius in their mouth had been put into work twice because of overwork. hospital."

"He graduated with the best grades of the whole year and was admitted to the most difficult bar in the United States. But then, you should have guessed it. He embraced the law with a rebellious idea, and friction and conflict with his dad all the way. But after becoming a lawyer, he walked back to his father's path step by step, smoothed out these edges and corners, and understood his father's difficulty."

"The day Uncle Xu suffered a cerebral infarction and was diagnosed with cerebrovascular dementia, he sat in the hospital overnight. After that, he began to take over his dad's case, carrying everything down. He didn't say anything, but I It can be seen that from that time on, he was really attentive. Lawyers are no longer a job for him, but a career."

"You may not have imagined that someone like him has ever been addicted to cigarettes. It was Uncle Xu who contracted it shortly after he fell ill. The pressure in the first two years was too great, there was no way, only to rely on external stimulation, until the third He returned to his normal state only 1 year ago and quit smoking."

"What you see now is him who has been playing for eight years, and he is very beautiful. He has capital, so he can say that he will return to China when he returns, but this does not mean that he gave up easily."

"No one else knows these things. If I don’t tell them, he may never mention them to you. Rather than you never know, I think it’s better for me to talk more. Anyway, we couldn’t have become friend."

"Finally, let me say something that makes you hate. Let him give up his eight years of hard work overnight. Maybe he is really willing, but this is really not a matter of course. If you still don’t consider accommodating him to the United States, at least, yes. Cherish his sacrifice."

Ruan Yu pursed his lips, looked at the traffic outside the window, and squeezed the passport in his bag.
