Chapter 45 Hidden



This dinner was very rewarding for Qin Suisui. In addition to receiving an invitation from Zhang Lan, she also received letters of intent from several companies preparing to go public.

Most importantly, this was a pretext to give Uncle Su a warning, hoping that this silent message would be effective.

The next morning, as soon as she arrived at her office, Yue Hongxin walked in with some documents in her hand.

"Lawyer Qin, this is your itinerary for the next few days, and these documents need your signature."

Qin Suisui took the document, quickly flipped through it, and seeing that there were no questions, signed her name on it.

When she handed over the documents, she noticed that Yue Hongxin seemed hesitant to speak.

He leaned back slightly and asked with a smile, "Assistant Yue, is there something you need?"

"Attorney Qin, it's like this. Hong Chang, the head of the investigation company that our law firm collaborates with, has mentioned to me several times that he wants to meet with you, saying he has something to discuss with you!"

"Hong Chang is looking for me?"

Qin Suisui frowned slightly, puzzled, and asked, "Did he reveal anything to you?"

"No!"

Yue Hongxin shook her head and tentatively said.

“Qin Lu, I feel like he’s in a lot of a hurry.”

"Okay, here's what we'll do. Have him come to the law firm tomorrow afternoon, and make sure you have an hour free for me then."

"Yes, Lawyer Qin."

A smile involuntarily spread across Yue Hongxin's face.

"I'm going out now."

Qin Suisui didn't know why Hong Chang wanted to see her, but she still made time to meet him for an hour the next afternoon.

"Hello, Lawyer Qin, this is Hong Chang from Suker."

Hong Chang greeted everyone with a smile as soon as he entered.

"Manager Hong, please don't be shy, have a seat."

Qin Suisui sat down opposite Hong Chang, smiling politely.

"I heard from Assistant Yue that Manager Hong has something urgent to discuss with me."

"Yes."

Hong Chang smiled somewhat awkwardly.

"Qin Lu, to be honest, I've come here today for two main reasons."

"The first thing concerns you. You know, we have our own ways of getting information."

"Um!"

Qin Suisui nodded.

Hong Chang continued, "A former client of mine said that someone recently offered a high price to buy your face."

"My face?"

Qin Suisui's eyes narrowed slightly, her expression turning serious.

"Who thinks so highly of me that they'd pay such a high price?"

She remained expressionless, somewhat amused and exasperated. She had a target in mind; the only person who could ruin her face was An Ru. She just couldn't understand how the other woman could be so naive as to be so lawless.

"Manager Hong, thank you for the reminder!"

"You're welcome, Qin Lu, it's only right."

Hong Chang glanced at the other person and then continued.

"Qin Lu, there's one more thing."

"you say."

Hong Chang smiled awkwardly: "Lawyer Qin, I wonder if Mr. Parker told you about the lawsuit between Fan Jing and Jingzhou Hospital before he left?"

"Fan Jing's lawsuit against Jingzhou Hospital?"

Qin Suisui's words were tinged with doubt.

"What kind of case is this? Parker didn't tell me about this lawsuit before he left."

"I knew it."

Hong Chang's expression grew increasingly frustrated, his face showing a deep sense of unease.

“Lawyer Qin, I don’t know how to explain this to you.”

"It's alright, take your time."

Since Hong Chang came looking for me in such a hurry, it must be related to the other party.

"That's right, this matter concerns me."

Hong Chang couldn't determine Qin Lu's mood at that moment, so he could only try his best to explain.

“At the time, a distant cousin of mine contacted me. He somehow found out that I often dealt with law firms…”

Qin Suisui listened attentively as Hong Chang explained the reason for the matter.

"You mean your cousin's wife had IVF at a hospital in Jingzhou, and only ten years later did they discover that the child was not related to them at all, because of the chaotic management of the reproductive center at Jingzhou Hospital?"

"Yes, when Mr. Parker was there, Jingzhou Hospital and my cousin and his wife had already reached an agreement privately. Both sides compromised, with Jingzhou Hospital paying 1.8 million yuan in compensation, and the two sides reached a private settlement."

"Who knew that last month, Jingzhou Hospital went back on its word. They hired a lawyer from somewhere and called my cousin, asking him and his wife to prove that they hadn't mixed up the children with anyone else in the past ten years."

Hong Chang became increasingly angry as he spoke.

"Attorney Qin, they are utterly shameless. In order to evade responsibility, they are resorting to shameless tactics and making us prove our innocence."

After listening to Hong Chang's description, Qin Suisui knew the other party's intention. The purpose was clear: to delay indefinitely.

They must have known that the victim had no source of income, so they dragged it out for a year or two until the victim was exhausted, and then easily gave them a few hundred thousand yuan to get rid of them.

Seeing Qin Lu bow his head and remain silent, Hong Chang couldn't help but feel anxious.

“Attorney Qin, Parker took on this lawsuit through legal aid.”

"My cousin and his wife underwent several IVF treatments to conceive a child, borrowing money from almost all their relatives and friends. They had just finished paying it off a few years ago, and before they could even enjoy their good life for two years, this kind of thing happened."

"them……."

"I know."

Qin Suisui interrupted the other party's subsequent explanation.

“Since it’s legal aid from outside the law firm, of course I won’t refuse.”

"Well then, I'm not familiar with this lawsuit yet. I'll have Assistant Yue retrieve all the detailed information later. Once I understand it clearly, I'll have Assistant Yue contact you."

"Oh! No problem, thank you, Lawyer Qin!"

Seeing Qin Lu stand up, Hong Chang quickly followed suit, looking somewhat uneasy.

"Qin Lu, we've caused you trouble."

Parker helped him because he owed him a favor by helping his cousin with the lawsuit for free. The two sides had already reached an agreement and were just one step away from signing the formal contract.

Who knew that the child would suddenly have a seizure and faint back in his hometown, and would have a persistent high fever. The child's grandmother could only cry on the phone, so anxious that she could not speak clearly. The couple were so frightened that they rushed back immediately.

The agreement had to be put on hold, and then Parker was suddenly transferred back to the United States, and the other party changed lawyers and suddenly reneged on the agreement.

"It doesn't matter."

Qin Suisui smiled as she saw Hong Chang out.

As soon as Hong Chang left, her expression changed slightly. The matter that Hong Chang had mentioned—the high price he offered to ruin her face—had to be resolved as soon as possible.

It's obvious that Anru is behind this madness. In recent years, she has encountered many people with mental illnesses who act in extreme and reckless ways.

Who knew she would run into such a person? With someone so crazy, she definitely needed to come up with a plan to solve the problem once and for all.
