Chapter 33 He Will Also Be Different



They have always been able to operate in the open, hoping to find a breakthrough opportunity, unless a windfall falls from the sky and lands right on them.

However, the probability of this is extremely low, and finding even the slightest clue is incredibly unlucky.

Even Tang Jinyu herself thought it was impossible.

She is now not only focusing her energy on other things, but also looking for breakthroughs.

That's why I say that other cases at least have enough time and evidence.

However, the two cases she had on hand happened to be the type she disliked completely.

There was neither time nor evidence.

If a complete chain of evidence can be constructed, then everything will be fine.

However, it is clear that the evidence they have now is very one-sided.

It doesn't prove anything, but it still gives them a glimmer of hope.

What Tang Jinyu fears most is a case where they leave her nothing but still expect her to win.

This is no longer simply a matter of where to start; it's that no matter how much she prepares, it's useless.

She still doesn't know what the other party's trump card is.

The call with Tang Yuan was over, but nothing came of it.

Tang Jinyu roughly understood Tang Yuan's thoughts and indeed felt that what he said made sense.

If it were someone else, she might not have taken it to heart.

But the words that come out of Tang Yuan's mouth are ultimately different.

Having met so many people, he's bound to be much more perceptive than I am in this matter.

It's not shameful to ask him for help occasionally.

In any case, what Tang Jinyu is doing now can be considered walking a tightrope.

One wrong move and you could easily fall into the abyss.

Even if you don't end up completely shattered, things can still get very difficult.

In the past, even if Tang Jinyu fell and hurt herself, she would only rub it, stand up, and start over.

Things are different now.

She wasn't afraid of losing, but the responsibility she carried was simply too heavy.

She can step back, but what about the people she wants to help?

Should we just abandon it?

She can't do it.

When He Danqing woke up groggily, she pushed open the bedroom door and saw Qi Yi lying on the sofa.

I don't know where I found a small blanket, but I covered myself with it.

He looked somewhat wronged lying on the sofa, given his height.

He Danqing rubbed his temples, still feeling the aftereffects of a hangover, and wasn't exactly in high spirits.

Seeing that he shifted, she couldn't help but ask, "You didn't go home yesterday?"

Hearing the noise, Qi Yi got up, leaned back on the sofa, and folded the blanket and put it aside.

"woke up?"

"I told you before, if you can't drink, don't drink so much with me."

"I'm someone who's always out socializing, you can't compare to my alcohol tolerance."

When Qi Yi first founded his law firm, he had to deal with people from all walks of life, sometimes attending several dinner parties in a single night.

That's when I developed my alcohol tolerance; it's much better now, and I don't need to involve him in many things.

So I had a lot more free time, but my alcohol tolerance remained at that level.

He rarely drinks with others now, but that doesn't mean his alcohol tolerance has decreased.

Things changed when He Danqing suggested having a drink with him.

"That's what I said."

"You didn't used to have such a high alcohol tolerance. I was being presumptuous."

He Danqing shook her head, picked up her phone, and opened the food delivery app.

"What would you like to eat? I'll order breakfast."

"The hotel breakfast didn't suit my taste."

Qi Yi didn't move, but just looked down at the time.

"You've been back for so long, haven't you adjusted yet?"

He Danqing has been living abroad for many years and has only recently returned, so it's normal for her to feel out of place.

But to my surprise, quite a long time has passed, and he still hasn't changed.

"No, it's just that it doesn't taste like the flavor I liked when I was a child."

"I'm not one to compromise. Either I don't eat it, or it has to be to my satisfaction."

He Danqing has always been like this. Most of the time, he seems indifferent to everything, but occasionally he can be quite thoughtful.

Qi Yi and he had known each other for many years, but since he went abroad, they hadn't been in contact as frequently.

However, given the long-standing friendship between the two families, it would be difficult for Qi Yi to remain indifferent now that He Danqing had returned.

I can't clean up his mess, but I won't refuse to help with anything I can.

However, there probably won't be a next time I drink with someone.

Drinking with He Danqing is really not fun.

After seeing that he had drunk too much, I still had to take him back.

Going through all these procedures really left Qi Yi with no time for himself.

It's very difficult to rest after work.

"You can order your own food; I need to pack up and head back to the law firm."

"I have a ton of things to do, unlike you who's so free."

Qi Yi felt a headache whenever he saw him hanging around in front of him; it wasn't so obvious unless you compared it to him.

In comparison, the difference is quite obvious.

Tang Jinyu is supposed to go to Cheng Chi's place today; her car is still parked at Li Wan's house and hasn't been driven back yet.

Of course, Qi Yi wasn't so free that he could take her there.

Just take a taxi.

In any case, they haven't found any useful evidence yet, so it's unlikely that the person behind it would want to tamper with things.

Before they even had any evidence, they threw themselves into disarray; it's clearly not something a mature person would do.

When they're playing chess, they're afraid of being influenced too much by external factors.

Even if they discover something, they will choose to keep it a secret until the very end.

If it's not told, no one will know what really happened.

Clearly, now is not the best time.

He Danqing glanced at him and asked doubtfully, "You really won't eat?"

Qi Yi didn't say anything else, only that there wasn't enough time, then grabbed his clothes from the sofa and hastily put them on.

We'll change it after we get to the law firm.

He Danqing's flashy clothes were clearly unsuitable for a respectable person like him.

To avoid becoming the laughingstock of the entire law firm first thing in the morning, he decided not to borrow a set from He Danqing.

If I were to actually go to a law firm like this, who knows how people would laugh at me.

What should have been a simple matter has become complicated for them.

"Alright, since you've put it that way, I won't try to persuade you anymore."

He Danqing isn't the type to insist on having people listen to him. He has one redeeming quality: he's relatively receptive to advice.

Qi Yi, in particular, seemed far too anxious, as if something incredibly serious was waiting for him at the law firm.

If he doesn't go, there's a situation that no one else can handle.

He Danqing did not try to understand him; the current situation was different from what he had initially thought.

Qi Yi had also become somewhat different from the person he remembered.
