Chapter 46 I Owe You Two Favors



Enter the reception room.

Ning Qi personally brewed tea and said with a smile, "Miss Ming, please have some tea. You can tell me about the case, and I'll help you analyze it."

Mingluo took out a case file from her bag and handed it to Ningqi.

Ning Qi took it and looked at it quickly. His posture was crisp and neat, without any unnecessary movements. He exuded a calm beauty that made people trust him.

She glanced sideways at Nie Yuchen; the capitalists had indeed found a good lawyer.

Just as I was idly thinking, suddenly—

She felt a warmth on her collarbone, reached out and touched it, and a peach blossom swayed and flew out from between her fingers toward Ning Qi. Ning Qi was oblivious, still focused on flipping through the documents.

Minglu formed a hand seal and immediately used her spiritual power to try to control the flower.

pity……

That flower wouldn't listen to her at all.

At the crucial moment, Nie Yuchen stood up and stepped in front of Ning Qi. The peach blossom seemed to be attracted by something and swayed as it fell into Nie Yuchen's palm.

Nie Yuchen stared intently at the peach blossom that had fallen into his palm and disappeared, then gave Minglu a meaningful look.

Mingluo rubbed her forehead.

She had never been so disheveled in her life.

Peach blossoms flew about again and again.

And of all things, it was seen by the same person.

It's as if I'm incredibly thirsty...

Actually, she's been single since birth for tens of thousands of years...

She raised her teacup to Nie Yuchen and drank it all in one gulp, indicating that she owed him another favor.

Nie Yuchen smiled slightly, thoughtfully touching the peach blossom in his palm. He then slowly poured tea for Mingluo and returned to his seat.

This scene, witnessed by Ning Qi, left him utterly incredulous.

This perpetually single guy is actually serving tea and water to girls? He even blocked their eye contact, as if he was afraid that if he looked at her too much, he'd fall into a trap he couldn't escape?

Attorney Ning was very unhappy...

He smiled and said, "Mr. Nie, some of the questions I'm about to ask will involve Ms. Ming's privacy, so you'll need to excuse yourself."

Nie Yuchen: "..." It seems I paid too much in lawyer fees before.

Mingluo said calmly, "It's alright, he doesn't need to avoid it. He knows what he needs to know."

Aside from the biggest secret of coming from another world, the second biggest secret is the Peach Blossom Seal, which Nie Yuchen now knows. He has probably investigated the original owner's affairs thoroughly as well.

She is now transparent and fearless.

Ning Qi's smile froze.

How far have things progressed between them?

Are we really this open and honest with each other?

He silently endured the display of affection, then began asking Mingluo questions, occasionally offering his analysis and advice.

With Ning Qi's analysis, Ming Luo gradually gained a clearer understanding of the entire case:

In the eyes of the general public, although Fu Zhe hit her, given that she is still alive, he can only be sentenced for attempted murder. Furthermore, since she sustained minor injuries, Fu Zhe may receive a lighter sentence.

If Fu Zhe insists that he had feelings for her and that her promiscuity led him to commit a crime of passion, and the court accepts his claim, he may still be considered for a lighter sentence.

In conclusion, while Mingluo appears to be in a favorable position in this case, a closer analysis suggests that Fu Zhe may not receive the punishment he deserves.

This is something Mingluo doesn't want to see.

Mingluo is still alive, but the original owner of this body truly died in the car accident that Fu Zhe and Ming Jiaojiao could have staged.

If I don't take revenge...

She believed in karma and retribution; if she didn't avenge the original owner, she wouldn't be able to live in this body with peace of mind.

Ning Qi calmly looked at Ming Luo. For some reason, he had a feeling that it was only fair if Ming Luo kept Fu Zhe locked up in jail.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "I suggest we investigate Fu Zhe. He is so extreme, premeditated, and planned. I'm afraid his personal history is not simple."

This idea coincided with Mingluo's.

She immediately asked, "Attorney Ning, would it be convenient for you to represent me in court?"

Ning Qi was filled with excitement.

Of course he was willing.

Although this type of case is not his forte, being able to get in touch with the girls that Nie Yuchen is interested in will provide him with countless gossips to talk about in the future, and his status among his friends will become extraordinary.

However, it depends on Nie Yuchen's opinion.

After all, the cases he's currently handling all involve the Nie family, and if he were to deal with Mingluo's case, it would inevitably affect the Nie family.

He remained silent for a moment.

Nie Yuchen understood his concerns and quickly said, "I remember you said before that you wanted to switch to a different type of case to change your approach. I think this case is quite good."

Ning Qi was utterly bewildered.

Who said we should switch to different types of cases?

He doesn't need to change his approach at all.

Nie Yuchen's methods for women are truly despicable.

He betrayed his friends so smoothly.

He smiled and said, "Since Mr. Nie doesn't think it will delay your company's business, I do want to try a different type of case. Miss Ming, don't worry about me, I'd love to take this case."

Minglu smiled slightly, "Thank you very much. I'll rely on Attorney Ning in the future."

Ning Qi quickly had a contract drafted. Ming Luo skimmed through it, finding the contract terms quite daunting. She then signed her name with a flourish.

Ning Qi asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to take a closer look?"

"No need!" It's giving me a headache anyway.

Minglu gave Nie Yuchen a meaningful look. "Since President Nie introduced him, there won't be any problems." If there were any problems, she could always use Nie Yuchen as a scapegoat.

Nie Yuchen inexplicably felt a chill on her neck.
