Pei Zhao looked disappointed, but said politely, "I understand, thank you very much for telling me this."

"Don't be so polite. We'll be colleagues from now on, and there's nothing we can't discuss about work," Su Qiong said with a smile.

"Okay, Attorney Xu, Attorney Su, I'll be going now."

Pei Zhao politely greeted the two men before leaving.

Su Qiong patted Xu Wan and laughed, "I can tell that Pei Zhao really likes you. When Dong Yuanyuan told me about your wedding, he almost lost control of his expression."

"Impossible, I hadn't even spoken to him before today," Xu Wan denied.

Pei Zhao only arrived yesterday, and their desks are some distance apart.

Before dinner today, the two of them hadn't even met face-to-face, so how could they have suddenly fallen for each other?

"You know what love at first sight is, right?" Su Qiong pinched Xu Wan's cheek. "With a face like yours, is it really that hard for a man to fall in love with you at first sight?"

Su Qiong even suspected that Jiang Tingzhou's kindness towards her might be due to love at first sight.

The two reached the door, and Su Qiong, knowing that Xu Wan was being picked up, didn't want to be a third wheel and left first.

A dozen minutes earlier, Jiang Tingzhou had sent Xu Wan a message, telling her that he was in the parking lot.

Xu Wan followed the signs toward the ground-level parking lot.

On the other side, Dong Yuanyuan had just finished exchanging contact information with Pei Zhao when she turned around and saw Xu Wan walking alone towards the parking lot.

"Tsk, Xu Wan's husband really came to pick her up?"

Dong Yuanyuan muttered to herself, still somewhat incredulous.

In her opinion, so what if Xu Wan has a vixen-like face? These days, which in-laws don't consider the woman's parents when looking for a daughter-in-law? Who would want someone like Xu Wan, whose mother killed her own father?

Dong Yuanyuan thought that Xu Wan's husband was either too poor to find a wife, or he was an ugly monster!

Xu Wan was inferior to her in every way since childhood. I never expected that after such a big thing happened in the family, Xu Wan was still able to get into China University of Political Science and Law and enter such a good law firm as Tianyuan!

Thinking about all this made Dong Yuanyuan feel very unhappy.

She hurried after him, determined to take a good look at Xu Wan's husband to see if he was a pig or a bald man!

Xu Wan had no idea about any of this.

After arriving at the parking lot, she quickly found Jiang Tingzhou's car.

Before he even reached the car, Jiang Tingzhou spotted the woman, quickly got out of the driver's seat, and walked over to her, saying gently, "Why didn't you call me before you left? I would have driven over to pick you up."

"No need, it's just a short walk."

Xu Wan looked up at the man.

Even in the dim light, you could clearly see that the man's eyes were slightly bluish.

She raised her hand and touched the man's dark circles. "Thank you for coming to pick me up."

"Picking up your wife isn't hard work at all."

Jiang Tingzhou cupped the back of the woman's head in his hand and leaned down to plant a kiss on her forehead.

Just then...

"cousin!"

Dong Yuanyuan's voice rang out at an inopportune moment.

Xu Wan subconsciously distanced herself from the man, looking at Dong Yuanyuan with a somewhat puzzled expression: "We're not even that close, so let's not try to be related. What are you doing following me?"

Jiang Tingzhou looked at Dong Yuanyuan with a cold expression.

He didn't know her.

Dong Yuanyuan called out to Xu Wan, but her eyes were glued to Jiang Tingzhou.

She couldn't believe that Xu Wan had actually found such a handsome man!

The man in front of me is at least 1.85 meters tall. He doesn't look fat, but you can clearly see the muscle outline in his shoulders and arms through his cotton T-shirt.

He's the type who looks slim in clothes but has a muscular physique when undressed!

What's even more amazing is this face!

Even with silver-rimmed glasses, his outstanding good looks are undeniable, especially his strong jawline and clear features. Unlike many pretty boys these days, he exudes the aura of a mature and reliable man!

Compared to him, Pei Zhao was utterly crushed.

Just looking at that face and that figure, Dong Yuanyuan was already green with envy.

She could only force a smile and say, "I... I just felt it wasn't safe for a girl like me to go home so late, and I was thinking that since your husband is picking you up, could he give me a ride home too?"
