When Nan Xia moved to her rival's law firm, the entire city was in an uproar. Song Yanzhi, a legendary figure in the legal world, was known as her nemesis, but what people didn't know was t...
Chapter 118 Did she not elope abroad with Shen Yan?
Madam Song looked at her stubborn son with some helplessness. Was he determined to have that woman?
Sigh, I wonder when I'll be able to hold my grandson?
Now, how could she dare to criticize Nanxia?
After his mother left, Song Yanzhi turned the doorknob and realized that he couldn't get in. He hadn't brought his access card or his phone with him!
He knocked on the door: "Knock knock... Nan Xia, open the door..."
"Tap tap... Nanxia..." He knocked again, but after waiting for a long time, there was not a sound from inside.
Is she still asleep?
A man and a woman walked down the corridor. They looked at the man standing in the corridor in his bathrobe and their eyes swept over him with a smile.
Song Yanzhi shot a cold glare at them, and the two of them looked away and quickly walked away.
He knocked on the door again—
Nan Xia, who was fast asleep, was woken up by the noise. She opened her eyes unhappily and sat up from the chaise longue in a daze. Suddenly, she heard Song Yanzhi calling out again.
"Didn't he sleep in the bed last night?"
"When did you run outside?"
As her mind gradually cleared, she recalled his actions from the previous night. "Why should I open the door for him? I should just let him stay outside!"
Outside, Song Yanzhi stood at the door with a somber expression, then knocked and called out, "...Nanxia?"
She pretended not to hear, lay back down on the chaise lounge, covered herself with the blanket, and continued to sleep.
But after being woken up, she couldn't fall back asleep, so she sat up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Several more young and beautiful women walked down the corridor, and upon seeing his handsome face and physique overflowing with masculine hormones, they were instantly captivated.
In the past, I would boldly ask, "Handsome, want to come to our room and have some fun?"
"Get lost!" Song Yanzhi swept his menacing gaze over them, and the women, frightened by his presence, wisely moved away.
Song Yanzhi stood awkwardly outside with his arms crossed for half an hour before the guest room door finally opened with a "click."
He looked at the woman who had finished washing up, was wearing yesterday's suit, and had put on light makeup, and secretly gritted his teeth.
"You were awake a long time ago but didn't open the door?"
"Why should I open it for you?" Nan Xia finished speaking and was about to leave when her wrist was suddenly grabbed by him. Song Yanzhi's tone softened as he asked.
Where are we going?
"Eat." She uttered the two words indifferently.
"Wait for me." Song Yanzhi pulled her back into the house. While he was washing up in the bathroom, Nan Xia took the opportunity to leave, not wanting to be seen with him.
It's best to keep your distance from him.
She got her food from the self-service breakfast area and was about to find an empty seat when a familiar voice called her name:
"Attorney Nan, come sit here with me."
Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw it was Mrs. Song. The client had already called me, so it wouldn't be good to refuse.
She carried the tray over and sat down opposite her. "Good morning, Mrs. Song. Did you sleep well last night?"
"She looks great. How about you?" Madam Song glanced at her face. The swelling had completely subsided. She was indeed beautiful, pleasing to the eye, and had a resilient quality.
"I'm fine too," Nan Xia replied perfunctorily.
"I saw you and Attorney Song sharing a room last night. Are you two a couple?" Mrs. Song wanted to know what she was thinking.
She paused for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "Attorney Song just had a cup of coffee in my guest room. We're just ordinary colleagues, not lovers. You know that, we're mortal enemies."
"I think he treats you quite well. He even saved you yesterday. Don't you like him?"
"I don't like it." Nan Xia ate a spoonful of porridge and answered crisply.
Madam Song frowned slightly. She had previously felt that the woman was not good enough for her son, and now she was worried that the woman did not like her son!
Weren't they already asleep?
I hope she gets pregnant unexpectedly—
"Come with me to the mall later." Madam Song's tone was cold and domineering. Seeing that she was still wearing yesterday's dress, she prepared to buy her a few outfits.
"Alright... Madam Song, what are your thoughts on the agency matter?" Nan Xia asked, seizing the opportunity.
"Come to my company to sign the contract after we get back to the city." Once the contract is signed, there will be plenty of opportunities to work together in the future.
"Okay," she replied happily.
After breakfast, the two went to the shopping mall on the third floor of the cruise ship, where a wide variety of clothing was sold, all of which were international brands.
The two were strolling when Song Yanzhi arrived. His mother had sent him his location. He called and texted Nan Xia, but she didn't reply.
Mrs. Song only sent her son her location after she saw it by chance.
"..." How did he know we were here?
Nanxia looked at the man walking towards her with some surprise. He had just called her a few minutes ago to ask for her location, yet he had found her so quickly?
Song Yanzhi glared angrily at the woman and said coldly, "I'll disembark this afternoon and go back to the city. I can still make it to the court tomorrow morning."
Nanxia frowned upon hearing his words, "Didn't you say last night that you wouldn't pursue the case against Ruifeng?"
“Attorney Nan, since you're so prone to anger, then stay here and keep being angry.” He said coldly, lighting a cigarette, taking a deep drag, and exhaling wisps of smoke, his tone completely calm.
"By the way, as the leaders of the law firm, we should take the lead in abiding by the firm's regulations. When I get back this time, I will make our relationship public. Didn't Attorney Nan want to go abroad with Shen Yan?"
Go ahead, but just a friendly reminder: don't close your eyes when you sleep tonight, or the Shen couple might kill you.
Shen Shaohui taught her a lesson once, and she'll do it again. Does she still want to marry into the Shen family? It's ridiculous.
Nan Xia stared at him intently, her delicate brows furrowing even deeper. Was this a threat?
It must be said that he did hit the nail on the head. She couldn't leave the law firm now, with two major enemies right in front of her. Now was the perfect opportunity.
It was a rare opportunity for me to get close to them.
She has been waiting for many years.
Why bother arguing with him now if you want revenge?
Nan Xia took a deep breath and then, with a quick, flexible smile, nudged his arm. "We're not lovers anymore, we just slept together, what's the big deal about reporting it to the law firm?"
Besides, this cruise ship is so much fun, why don't you stay one more day with me before going back?
Song Yanzhi stared in disbelief at the woman's sudden change; her expression shifted faster than flipping through a book!
"Aren't you going to elope abroad with Shen Yan?" he asked, glancing at her.
"I already said, we're just ordinary friends, not lovers. Why would you elope with him? If anyone's going to elope, it'd be with you! You're more handsome than him, have a better physique, and are more outstanding. Your parents are definitely better than his parents too!" Nan Xia forced a smile and flattered this scoundrel.
Upon hearing her words, Song Yanzhi's lips unconsciously curved slightly. Standing in the lingerie store, Madam Song raised an eyebrow upon hearing her last sentence.
"Aren't you angry anymore?" he asked.
"I'm not angry. Why would I be angry with you?" she said with a smile.
Suddenly, Mrs. Song picked up a white lace bra and a black one, turned to her and asked, "Attorney Nan, which one do you think looks better?"
