Chapter 43 The Dinner 1



Chang Jinhui was somewhat puzzled by Qin Lu's implication.

"Lawyer Qin, Chairman Zhang has resolved the predicament for Wenhui Pharmaceuticals. What are your next steps?"

Wenhui Pharmaceutical's performance in the past two years has been unsatisfactory, with serious infighting among its shareholders and an unclear future development direction. Given the current reputation of Lawrence Law Firm, there is absolutely no need to take the initiative to contact them.

Qin Suisui stopped at a suitable corner for observation before speaking.

"Have you noticed that there are more and more single women in the Huating business district in recent years? With economic development, situations like Ms. Zhang Lan's will become more and more frequent."

“If we take over Zhang Lan’s case early and win the lawsuit, it will definitely benefit us. In the future, similar lawsuits will definitely be considered first.”

"If we can take on her case, we not only have to fight, but we have to fight it well!"

"As for their performance, that's not within our scope of consideration; we only care about winning or losing the case."

Chang Jinhui suddenly realized what was going on. He glanced at Wen Zong, who shrugged at him.

Qin Suisui found an excellent spot, a blind spot in everyone's line of sight, where they could observe others freely without being easily noticed.

“Law Qin, look at that spot in the center of the banquet hall, the one surrounded by a group of people.”

Chang Jinhui's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked at Qin Suisui.

Qin Suisui glanced over inexplicably, but the crowd was so large that her view was obstructed and she couldn't see the whole picture.

"What happened over there? What's wrong?"

"The person surrounded is Huo Zhongyuan, our most outstanding alumnus of Aurora University and the most renowned senior in the Huating financial circle."

Chang Jinhui looked towards the center of the banquet, his eyes filled with envy.

"Is Senior Brother Huo here today too?"

Qin Suisui tiptoed and glanced around. The center of the banquet hall was surrounded by people, all trying to squeeze in.

"Is Senior Brother Huo really that popular now?"

"Brother Huo's popularity has always been so high. Everyone wants to get his guidance. According to insider information, Brother Huo's private equity funds achieved returns of more than 100 times last year!"

Chang Jinhui spoke with envy, saying that if he had Huo's abilities, he would never be as celibate as Huo, who still doesn't have a girlfriend.

He not only thought about it, but also said it aloud.

Wen Zong was surprised that Chang Jinhui could speak so recklessly in front of Qin Lu, and couldn't help but admire him.

"Ahem!" He coughed lightly a few times, glancing sideways at Chang Jinhui.

"Oh, Qin Lu, I was just joking and talking nonsense."

Chang Jinhui realized that he had actually spoken his thoughts aloud, and his face flushed slightly, a rare occurrence for him.

Qin Suisui smiled nonchalantly.

"Senior Brother Huo has never had a girlfriend?"

She didn't care about Chang Jinhui's thoughts. She had been in M ​​country for many years, and such remarks were nothing in other countries.

What she was curious about was why, given Huo's outstanding personal qualities, he didn't even have a girlfriend.

"Perhaps my standards are too high."

"I think so."

Wen Zong said in a low voice.

"Senior Brother Huo is self-disciplined and has never had any scandals during his university years."

"Why isn't she here! Where is Senior Sister Xie Yumu?"

Chang Jinhui directly refuted this.

"There are rumors in the circle that if Senior Sister Xie Yumu hadn't gone abroad to study, Senior Brother Huo wouldn't have been able to work as Shan Guying for so many years."

Wen Zong did not refute this; he had indeed heard about it before.

He remarked with emotion, "Many bigwigs in the Huating business circle have taken a liking to Senior Brother Huo and wanted him to be their son-in-law, but Senior Brother Huo has rejected them all."

"It is said that when Anru first entered university, she initially pursued Senior Brother Huo, but later..."

Chang Jinhui chimed in from behind, and after he finished speaking, he almost sewed his own mouth shut.

Ignoring Wen Zong's suppressed laughter, he quickly turned his head away, pretending not to care as he looked at the others.

Qin Suisui no longer cared about any of this; she simply watched the crowd with amusement.

At this moment, the crowd dispersed, and Huo Zhongyuan finally emerged from the encirclement.

Their eyes met in mid-air, and Huo Zhongyuan nodded in Qin Suisui's direction.

Chang Jinhui and Wen Zong exchanged a glance, then turned their gaze to Qin Suisui behind them.

"Lawyer Qin, do you know President Huo?"

They certainly wouldn't presume to think that Huo Zhongyuan was greeting them.

"We just met recently, and we only exchanged a few words when we bumped into each other."

Qin Suisui spoke frankly, and at that moment, some people in the venue also noticed her.

"Mr. Yu, is that beautiful woman your ex-girlfriend, Sheffield from the Law Offices at Rothon?"

The young man standing next to Yu Chengjue looked in Qin Suisui's direction with interest.

"Um!"

Yu Chengjue's voice was slightly low and weak, and his gaze into the distance was filled with longing.

"Hmph! Yu Chengjue."

The young man shook his head and chuckled.

"You really lost the watermelon but picked up a sesame seed."

Yu Chengjue's face visibly turned ugly.

"Ji Yang, don't do anything rash. No matter what, Sui Sui is still my former lover."

Judging from Ji Yang's expression, he was very interested in Sui Sui. No one knew Ji Yang better than Yu Chengjue. He was a womanizer who never got involved with anyone and always had a carefree attitude. He didn't want Sui Sui to get hurt again.

"Yu Chengjue, you've been married for several years now. You're not still thinking about your ex, are you? I'm warning you, you'd better watch your little thoughts. My cousin is not a magnanimous person. She's always holding grudges and will find a way to cause trouble, let alone your ex-girlfriend. For your ex's sake, I advise you to stay away from her."

Ji Yang smiled ambiguously, patted Yu Chengjue on the shoulder, and turned to walk towards Qin Suisui.

"You~"

Yu Chengjue took a few steps forward, but Ji Yang turned around and gestured to him, forcing him to stop. He could only watch helplessly as Ji Yang walked towards Sui Sui.

"Hello, Lawyer Qin, I am Ji Yang from Maple Leaf Holdings. It's an honor to meet you for the first time!"

Ji Yang walked up to Qin Suisui, introduced himself, and extended his hand.

This sudden introduction startled Qin Suisui. Upon hearing that it was Maple Leaf Holdings, she glanced at Wen Zong and, seeing that Wen Zong remained silent, realized that the other party's background was genuine.

He then extended his hand and shook it casually.

"Mr. Ji, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Wen Zong glanced at Yu Chengjue, who was standing in the distance watching them, and leaned closer to Qin Suisui to whisper in her ear.

“Ji Yang and Yu Chengjue have had a very close relationship in the last two years, and he just came from Yu Chengjue’s side.”

Upon hearing that it was Yu Chengjue's friend, Qin Suisui's expression turned slightly cold, and her smile became even more polite and distant.
