Chapter 200 She is the noble person in my life

"Yes!" The receptionist's eyes were filled with admiration when she mentioned her boss. "Our big boss is amazing. He became famous after taking on a big case half a year ago. More and more people are turning to him for lawsuits. He soon partnered with the second-in-command to establish a law firm. Now he's a very influential figure in the industry!"

Jiang Yao was surprised, but not too surprised.

Gold shines wherever it is.

He quickly entered the reception room. When he knocked on the door and went in, Xu Li, neatly dressed and with a smile on his face, greeted him.

But when he saw Li Beiting following Jiang Yao, his smile faded slightly.

"This is my friend Li Beiting. He came here with me to discuss the case..." Jiang Yao introduced him.

"I know, Mr. Li, I've long heard of you." Xu Li extended his hand toward him politely.

Li Beiting politely returned the handshake, his attitude reserved. "Lawyer Xu and Yaoyao were college classmates?"

"Yes, Yaoyao has helped me a lot. To me, she is not only a classmate, but also a benefactor in my life."

Xu Li was neither humble nor arrogant, and his attitude was sincere.

Li Beiting's eyelids twitched, and the radar in his heart became louder.

This guy, as expected...

"Okay, stop being so polite and let's talk about the case!" Jiang Yao interrupted their conversation and got straight to the point.

"Then sit down and talk slowly." Xu Li relaxed and asked the front desk to prepare tea.

After they sat down, Jiang Yao took out the investigation materials and explained the matter in detail.

Xu Li listened attentively, but what surprised him most was the information in his hand. "The company behind this water army is very large, and the transaction and account information are very hidden. It is usually difficult to find such detailed information."

And he got it so quickly, which shows how skilled he is.

Jiang Yao was a little surprised, then looked at Li Beiting with gratitude before explaining, "Senior helped me find it."

Xu Li finally understood now.

With Li’s help, wouldn’t getting this kind of information be a piece of cake?

He smiled bitterly and then asked for some details.

Li Beiting even understood some situations better than Jiang Yao and helped her answer them.

After communicating for nearly half an hour, Xu Li finally signed the contract to help Jiang Yao with the lawsuit.

"Thanks to Lawyer Xu today." At the end, Li Beiting took the initiative to express his gratitude to him.

Xu Li understood that he was asserting his sovereignty.

From the moment he entered the reception room, he intentionally or unintentionally showed his considerate and intimate side towards Jiang Yao.

For example, he knew the taste of her tea, and he supported himself on the sofa with one hand, as if holding Jiang Yao in his arms, and Jiang Yao did not refuse.

Everything showed that there was no room for him to interfere between the two of them.

Xu Liping held his breath and adjusted his mood: "You're welcome. This is my responsibility as a lawyer."

"Lawyer Xu, I'll treat you to dinner some other day." Jiang Yao also thanked him and left with Li Beiting.

Looking at the harmonious and well-matched backs of the two, Xu Li couldn't help but smile bitterly.

I originally thought that as long as I worked harder, I might be able to be worthy of her, but in the end I found out that I was overestimating my abilities.

Xu Li let out a deep breath.

At this moment, he finally realized that Jiang Yao was no longer someone he could reach.

Although it is a pity, she is still the noble person in his life anyway.

Because of her, I was able to find my true self.

…

On the way back, Jiang Yao leaned on the passenger seat and his tense nerves finally relaxed.

"This time, I should be able to teach them a hard lesson."

When Jiang Yao said this, he suddenly seemed to think of something important. His pupils widened slightly and he turned to look at Li Beiting.

"How... did you know about the comments section of my novel? Could it be that—"

At this moment, a thought flashed through her mind, "Are you the Tingfeng?"

Li Beiting raised his eyebrows slightly, and even the corners of his mouth were slowly rising.

"You only remember to ask me now?"

This statement indirectly acknowledged his identity.

Jiang Yao was shocked and bewildered for a moment. "Why did you... specially register an account? Is it for me? No wonder you only follow me. You don't usually read novels, do you? Actually, there's no need to do this for me."

His thoughtfulness and concern were so much that Jiang Yao felt overwhelmed and found it difficult to bear.

"You write well, why can't I read it? Besides—"

Li Beiting slowed down the car and looked down at her. "Didn't you say at the beginning that whether we can be together depends on whether our values, thoughts, and personalities are compatible? I just did the basic things to pursue a girl, didn't I?"

Jiang Yao's heart trembled. She didn't expect that Li Beiting could still remember clearly what he said so long ago, and responded to every detail.

"But you've done so much. If I can't respond to you, isn't it unfair to you?" She said in a low voice.

Li Beiting disagreed. "I treat you well willingly. I enjoy giving to you. As long as you don't reject me, I will be satisfied."

Sometimes, loving someone is that simple.

"So, you don't have to feel any burden."

Jiang Yao felt a pang of sadness and emotion in his heart.

How could such a smart man do such a stupid thing in love?

But silly and cute.

"Then, to repay Mr. Li for his efforts, I will cook for you tonight."

This time, it was Jiang Yao who took the initiative to step forward, wanting to express something to him.

Li Beiting seemed to have a premonition and readily agreed.

But unfortunately, we didn’t have the meal in the end.

Li Beiting received an urgent call from Nancheng, saying that there was a problem with the company's major project and everything was in chaos, so he needed to go back and take charge.

With so many employees still waiting for him, Li Beiting had no choice but to fly back early.

Jiang Yao told him to be careful on the road, and after watching him leave, he sighed with some regret.

The courage I had finally mustered was shattered again.

She simply turned her grief and anger into motivation, went upstairs and wrote a novel of ten thousand words in one breath, updated it and published it, and went to bed at two in the morning.

Today is the weekend, and she plans to catch up on her sleep until noon.

As a result, the next day, Jiang Yao was woken up by a phone call.

She picked up the phone in a daze and answered it, "Hello——"

"Yaoyao, it's bad. The people who are swindling you behind the scenes have become even more aggressive!" Editor Li's anxious voice came.

Jiang Yao suddenly opened her eyes, her mind gradually clearing up, and she sat up in bed, "What's going on?"

"Yesterday, those people were just posting bad reviews in the comments section, but today they've taken it all the way to Weibo. Someone posted a bunch of bad reviews about you on a fake account, criticizing your novel as worthless and picking on every single word and sentence for errors.

Even the 10,000 words you updated yesterday were maliciously interpreted by him as you trying to coax readers or take advantage of the trending topic.”
