The car was driving smoothly on the highway when Xu Yanshu took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence.
"Miss Qin, just now I..."
“This is not your fault, you don’t need to apologize for it,” Qin Shengyi interrupted, then added after a pause, “No matter how polite you are, I will never let my brother charge you less for your legal fees.”
Xu Yanshu chuckled for a moment, then wisely refrained from continuing, though a hint of annoyance still lingered in his eyes.
It was rare for Attorney Jiang to speak up, yet he had caused someone to suffer such an injustice for no reason. He truly hadn't expected that Xie Huanyu would be following him.
Thinking about it, he shook his head almost imperceptibly, truly hopeless.
Looking at the man's profile, Qin Shengyi was momentarily lost in thought, and couldn't help but think of the handsome young man who had protected her in front of others time and time again... Impossible, there's no such coincidence in the world.
“I’ve seen information about the Xie Group before. It seems to have been developing very well in recent years and has great business prospects. I came back this time to conduct an in-depth investigation.”
Xu Yanshu frowned slightly. Personally, he didn't want this matter to come to fruition. If they really got AC's investment, it would undoubtedly further embolden the Xie family.
He carefully considered his words and said, "Actually, domestic companies have been developing quite well in recent years. If your company wants to be more stable, you might as well take a look at a few more companies."
That's true. The Xie Group can only maintain its dominant position in Kyoto, but compared to companies in other first-tier cities, it probably wouldn't even rank.
Qin Shengyi nodded thoughtfully, his gaze towards Xu Yanshu now showing a clearer hint of inquiry.
She had initially thought the other party would seize this opportunity to push things through, but judging from his words, it seemed he didn't want the Xie Group to receive the investment...
Thinking back to the tense atmosphere just now, she seemed to understand a bit more. Zheng Yu had been handling mostly divorce cases in recent years.
They arrived at their destination quickly, and Xu Yanshu took the luggage out of the trunk and handed it to Qin Shengyi.
"Thank you so much for your help today. If it's convenient, could you please leave me your contact information? I might want to ask you about some specific details of the Xie Group later."
Xu Yanshu was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what he meant. Luckily, he always carried business cards with him, so he immediately took one out and handed it to the other person.
"If you need anything, you can contact me anytime, and I will do my best to answer your questions."
Watching the Maybach drive away, Qin Shengyi looked down at the business card in her hand and frowned in annoyance.
Why did I so abruptly ask for his contact information on our first meeting? If I really needed it for work, I wouldn't necessarily have to bother Xu Yanshu…
——
News of Lu Huai's unexpected disability spread quickly, and his hospital room became as lively as a tourist attraction, with people arriving one after another, and it was difficult to get rid of them anytime soon.
"Oh, so it's true. You, Young Master Lu, have always prided yourself on being a womanizer. Now that your leg is crippled, can you still be a womanizer?"
"Young Master Lu? Ha! He doesn't deserve it! If it weren't for Miss Xie's sake, we would never have bothered with him!"
"Exactly! He shamelessly tried to ride on the Xie family's coattails while being ugly and a womanizer. It's no wonder he ended up like this!"
Those bastards!
Lu Huai's expression was sinister, and he gritted his teeth, thinking to himself, "This is truly a case of a tiger fallen into the plains being bullied by dogs."
Previously, these people didn't dare to breathe loudly in front of him, but now that he has just had an accident, they are so eager to kick him while he's down.
Lu Guangxiong turned around and came back from outside. When he saw the group of people in the ward, his face immediately darkened. "Ah Huai needs to rest now, you..."
"Let's go, let's go. If we keep talking, he might get so angry that he'll jump up and hit your knee."
"Oh, no, he's disabled now, he can't jump at all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the group burst into laughter. They glanced at Lu Huai, who was lying on the bed, with disdain before turning and leaving the ward.
"What's wrong with this hospital? I clearly gave them a heads-up, so why were they still let in?"
Lu Huai was initially puzzled, but then he suddenly remembered something, and his expression turned even more unpleasant. "It's no use, this hospital is under the Xie family's control!"
These people might have been arranged by the Xie family!
Lu Huai couldn't help but regret breaking ties with Xie Huanyu so easily; otherwise, he wouldn't be facing this situation now.
this?
Lu Guangxiong was slightly taken aback, then belatedly realized something, and his eyes became deeply wary.
It seems the Xie family is determined not to let them off easily...
"Young Master Lu, how's your recovery going?" Xu Yanshu walked into the ward unhurriedly, his gaze sweeping directly over Lu Huai's legs, and asked casually, "Are you used to the wheelchair?"
Seeing the undisguised gloating on the other person's face, Lu Huai was instantly enraged.
"Get out of here!"
Xu Yanshu shrugged innocently and explained seriously, "Why are you so angry? I only meant well!"
"If you don't like wheelchairs, I can give you a pair of crutches for free."
Using magic to defeat magic—Lu Huai used to love these pretentious and disgusting people, but in reality, anyone can act.
Looking at Lu Huai, who was paralyzed on the bed, Xu Yanshu finally felt a little better, and the emotions in his eyes became dark and deep.
There's plenty of time ahead. If this is all there is to it, it would be too easy for this beast!
So this is just the beginning; more embarrassing things are yet to come!
Lu Guangxiong stepped forward and pushed the person out without saying a word, "Get out of here, you're not welcome here!"
Xu Yanshu curled his lips indifferently, then glanced at the person in front of him with a playful tone.
"Chairman Lu, I advise you to prepare yourself mentally. Lu Huai is most likely completely ruined. Why don't you consider starting a new account?"
Although he hadn't had much contact with them, he knew that the father and son were birds of a feather, and he clearly remembered how arrogantly this Mr. Lu had asked him to help Xie Huanyu and Lu Huai, the lovers, get together.
"you……"
Xu Yanshu chuckled softly, raised an eyebrow with interest, and then turned and left the ward.
Lu Guangxiong was so angry that his face turned ashen. He could tolerate others, but Xu Yanshu was also eager to kick him when he was down!
Remembering that his son was still lying in the hospital bed, he had to suppress his raging anger for the time being. Just as he was about to turn around, a man in a delivery uniform walked in.
"Hello, is this Mr. Lu Huai's hospital room? There's a package for him here." (Yan Shu is also a little bit cunning...)
