Ten years in Huating have been turbulent, with behind-the-scenes capital always omnipresent. Beneath the calm surface, undercurrents always churn; lights flicker on and off, and human affairs ebb a...
It's still too early to tell who will emerge victorious, and who knows who will be the one in the worst situation!
Thinking of this, his expression finally warmed up, and a smile appeared on his face. He dialed Xie Fei's office number.
Upon receiving Joyce's call, Qin Suisui was surprised that people really shouldn't be on your mind. She had just thought of Joyce when the call came in.
"Professor Joyce, I've been wondering since yesterday when you'll probably call me!"
"Yeah?"
Joyce smiled, but her tone was deliberately cold.
Are you afraid I'll hold you accountable?
"How is that possible!"
Qin Suisui smiled sweetly, her tone unconsciously carrying a fawning tone towards her elders.
"I always felt you would question me about why I signed such a huge leverage agreement!"
"snort!"
Joyce scoffed, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!"
"You're just afraid that headquarters will force you to violate professional ethics, so you deliberately lost this case!"
"No way!"
Qin Suisui laughed even more heartily.

"Yes, sir!"
"Joyce, I'll try my best to keep you at Rodton Law Firm for another two years!"
"You naughty girl! You're deliberately making things difficult for Ms. Joyce!"
The two chatted and laughed, discussing the pros and cons of the lawsuit over the phone.
Joyce sensed Sheffield's determination from her reply and then hung up the phone, relieved.
Teacher Joyce's phone call was a signal to Qin Suisui, letting her know the headquarters' attitude towards her.
Even though they objected, she persisted in her stance.
From the day she decided to return to China, she was already prepared!
