In just over ten minutes, Chen Lu drove to the building where Grandpa Yin lived.

Even now, Grandpa Yin still hasn't offered to help him, but the old professor will answer any questions he asks about this.

What does that mean?

This is actually not much different from personally acting as an advisor. He is now just like when Chen Guanglin played chess with him back then, with the chess software still running in his hand.

It's like having an external cheat code; he just does whatever the old man says.

Then there's the network of connections he initially wanted.

In fact, people in the industry who are well-known now know that there is a person named Chen Lu who goes to Professor Yin's house to give lessons every day.

He's been retired for over a decade, and he's the only one receiving this treatment.

Therefore, there are all sorts of rumors circulating, with some even saying that he is a closed-door disciple.

Even so, the old man never clarified it and always pretended not to know anything about it.

This has led to him now being viewed with more respect by people in the legal profession, making it much easier for them to get to know him.

These people will become his network in the future.

Although Grandpa Yin never explicitly said anything, he subtly gave him a lot of preferential treatment.

It's like saying, "The opportunity has been given to you; if you're really capable, climb up there yourself."

He only recently came to his senses and fully understood the matter.

The scariest thing is that bystanders can't say anything at all.

He's just here to attend classes, since he'll be taking the bar exam later.

Once he passes the bar exam, who can use public opinion to criticize someone of Professor Yin's stature for personally getting involved in this mess?

Did you attend this class or not?

As for the powerful figures in the legal world that he managed to get in touch with by borrowing their influence, he only did so through meals with Jiang Chao.

Professor Yin has never shown his face.

As for his various relationships with Professor Yin, those were all imagined by these people; he never said anything about them from beginning to end.

At that time, no one will be able to find fault with him, and no one will be able to say that Chen Lu has to resort to crooked means to file a lawsuit.

Professor Yin has clearly extricated himself from this matter.

Chen Lu couldn't help but gasp.

As expected, none of the people at this level are simple.

He still has a lot to learn.

Even though this old man is terrible at chess but has a huge addiction to it, he gets frustrated when he keeps losing, and he also gets frustrated when he discovers that the other person is letting him win...

Chen Lu was still very grateful.

Just then, he suddenly saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure at Professor Yin's door.

"I swear! I'm not here to ask you for a favor. No, wait, I actually do have something I need your help with."

"Grandpa, I beg you to accept these things. If you accept them, I will be free. I won't have to bother you anymore, and you won't have to be bothered by me every day."

"Tsk, why don't you believe me? I really did come here to slack off. Hey, don't close the door—"

The girl who was whining and wailing was about the same age as Chen Mo. She had naturally curly hair and was wearing a long brown trench coat.

It's probably 1.1 times that of Lin Miaomiao.

This time, Lin Miaomiao lost by a mere 0.1 points due to her physical stature, because she is able to fly a plane.

He recognized her; she was Lin Jingming's biological daughter and Mo Yuqing's half-sister, Lin Qian.

He and Lin Qian had a rather strange relationship since childhood. They weren't exactly close, but they had known each other for many years.

There is only one reason for this phenomenon—Uncle Mo was particularly good to him, so he disliked Lin Jingming, which meant that from the very beginning, Lin Qian was just a friend's sister to him.

This kind of relationship refers to people who have a good relationship but don't usually contact each other. In fact, many people have this kind of relationship in their social circles.

"You're back in China?" Now that they've met, Chen Lu had no choice but to greet them.

Although Chen Lu had heard Peng Leyun mention Lin Qian's visit before, he felt it was best to pretend he didn't know.

Otherwise, in Lin Qian's eyes, it would be awkward if he knew she had returned to China but didn't say hello.

Lin Qian was taken aback for a moment, then turned her head to look him over, a smile playing on her lips as she called out, "Brother~"

"You didn't even tell me you were coming back," Chen Lu said, taking the initiative.

He, Chen, has never been inferior to anyone in his life, so how could he possibly give others the opportunity to condemn him?

"I originally wanted to go visit you and Chen Mo, but I just got back and heard about what happened at your company. How can I possibly accept that?"

Lin Qian casually placed the pile of gifts she was carrying on the stairs and slowly lowered her eyes. "But it's okay, he won't be my father anymore soon. I'll invite you to dinner then, and I'll also see who my future sister-in-law is."

She had always been curious about what kind of girl could make Mo Yuqing lose so completely.

I really can't imagine it.

Chen Lu blinked blankly, "What's going on?"

"They're getting a divorce soon; my dad cheated on me."

Seemingly sensing that Chen Lu wanted to ask, "Then why did you come here?", Lin Qian continued with a wry smile:

"Why should I mess with his money? Anyway, this old man won't actually take anything from me. I'll just come and put on a show to clock in. If things don't go well here, I'll be indirectly helping you."

Chen Lu hesitated for a long time, unsure of what to say.

Seeing this, Lin Qian laughed heartlessly, "Actually, it's pretty good. My mom isn't short of money. After they get divorced, my sister and I will go with my mom and travel all over the world together."

The two chatted briefly before Lin Qian had to take her leave.

She was halfway down the stairs when she suddenly turned back, staring at him with a serious expression. "Brother, don't take any chances. He really wants your company dead."
