Chu Yuan was a single mother who conceived via IVF. After her child died in a car accident, she lost all will to live and followed him. She caused a ruckus in the underworld, refusing to reincarnat...
Shen Xizhou hadn't thought much about it at first; his unusual physiological reaction made him want to avoid Chu Yuan, but Jiang Yang's reminder made him a little worried.
Yes, that girl is so easy to fool. She might fall for a few sweet words from someone!
Many young men these days are smooth talkers who know how to charm women, unlike him, who at his age disdains such ostentatious displays.
After hesitating for about five minutes, Shen Xizhou finally couldn't hold back and called Xiao Dong's inside line, saying, "Come here, I have something to tell you."
"According to the order, shouldn't it be our court's turn for two male court clerks?"
It took Xiao Dong two seconds to realize that Shen Xizhou was talking to him about the clerk.
He glanced at the list and nodded, "That's right, one is named Cheng Fei, and the other is named Xie Lanfeng."
Shen Xizhou sat behind his desk, expressionless and serious. "It's not good. Male clerks are usually not as meticulous as female clerks and tend to be a bit careless. It would be good if one of them could help the female clerks with moving and carrying things. As for the other one, is it possible to switch him with another department?"
Xiao Dong was stunned. Is there really such a big difference?
He actually thinks that boys are quite good too, as they are more convenient to take on business trips.
But since the leader said so, he could only do as the leader suggested.
After pondering for a moment, he asked Shen Xizhou, "How about we switch with the Civil Affairs Court? They need a total of 8 people this time, all of them are girls, so we can exchange one boy for them."
Shen Xizhou pretended to be deep in thought, and tapped his fingers on the table.
After a while, he finally picked up the landline receiver. "Okay, I'll communicate directly with the presiding judge of the First Civil Division. I'll let you know once we've finished communicating."
So what else can Xiao Dong say?
The 39 newly arrived clerks are all listening to the orientation meeting in the conference hall. Since they haven't been assigned to any departments yet, their destinations are still uncertain.
However, Xiao Dong was somewhat suspicious of Shen Xizhou's decision.
On his first day here, didn't Shen Ting tell him privately that he prefers to work with gay men?
Because women have heavy family burdens and need to take leave from time to time, and he travels a lot for work, he was afraid of interfering with their family affairs.
But now they're saying that female clerks are better?
No matter how confused Xiao Dong was, after successfully communicating with Shen Xizhou, he could only follow the procedure and go to the conference room to bring the person over.
The court immediately held a short meeting to determine which court clerks would accompany them.
Without a doubt, Chu Yuan eventually became Shen Xizhou's... exclusive clerk!
When Xiao Dong came to talk to Chu Yuan, she already knew about it through Baba, so she wasn't surprised.
Like the other Cheng Fei, he had a docile attitude of accepting arrangements.
Xiao Dong was very satisfied and assigned each of them a workstation.
There are quite a few people in this department in Shenxizhou, and with the allocation on a one-to-one basis, there are quite a few clerks as well.
Everyone is in the same office, chattering away, which is lively and fun, but there is not much private space.
Xiao Dong turned to leave, but then suddenly realized something and turned back to look at Chu Yuan, "Oh right, Shen Ting is in 604. He said he wants you to go up and find him."
Most of the clerks are on the third floor; the higher up the office building, the higher the rank of the leader.
Chu Yuan, feigning being a newbie in the workplace, asked with a grin, "Brother Dong, is Shen Ting easy to talk to?"
"Don't ask around. You'll know once you try it yourself." Dong Haoran was cryptic; how could he possibly answer such a question?
However, he wasn't angry. The girl looked young and had just graduated from school, so he could understand that she didn't know the rules of the workplace.
Besides, the girl is beautiful, exceptionally beautiful, especially her slender waist. Even though she's not showing anything, she already gives off a hot and alluring visual appeal.
Chu Yuan knocked on Shen Xizhou's door, thinking happily, of course she knew what kind of person Shen Xizhou was.
When you don't know him well, he's cold and guarded; once you get to know him, he's a sincere and kind person.
"Come in." Behind the door, the man's clear and gentle voice was as alluring as ever.
The surrounding environment is like a hotel, with long corridors lined with offices, some with doors open and some with doors closed.
At the end of the 604 in Chenxizhou, judging from the sound feedback, the space should be quite large.
Chu Yuan pushed open the door and entered. "Judge Shen, you wanted to see me?"
Shen Xizhou looked up when he heard her voice. He still had that handsome and elegant face, which had not been marked by the passage of time.
He has striking features and a composed demeanor.
He curled the corners of his mouth into a smile. "It seems you already know. So, Miss Jiang, my clerk colleague."
When Chu Yuan changed her address from "Judge Shen" to "Presiding Judge Shen," Shen Xizhou secretly raised an eyebrow, feeling a unique satisfaction that the way she called out the name sounded particularly pleasant.
"It is an honor to be Judge Shen's clerk from now on. Judge Shen, rest assured, I will definitely take you as my role model and strive to serve the people."
You used your great power to help people like me who had gone astray, so I will use my meager abilities to help more people like you.
"I feel truly honored to be part of this system, Judge Shen. It's a pleasure working with you!"
As she spoke, Chu Yuan took the initiative to extend her hand to Chen Xizhou, intending to have a friendly handshake in the Chinese style.
Surely Shen Xizhou wouldn't refuse to give him face?
