Ever since she learned that Jiang Tingzhou might be coming to the law firm to start work in the next couple of days, Xu Wan has been extremely anxious.
Jiang Tingzhou had visited the law firm before, and now he has reappeared, this time under the identity of Jiang Xuanzhou. Will people have any opinions about him?
Do you think she knew her husband's identity but didn't tell him?
"Attorney Xu, someone is looking for you."
Just as Xu Wan was feeling panicked, the receptionist ran in and called her.
"Ah, okay."
Xu Wan responded absentmindedly.
She currently has very few clients, and no one specifically seeks her out.
My first reaction was—
Jiang Tingzhou has arrived.
Xu Wan remained seated, not moving.
Su Qiong walked over, calling out as she went, "Everyone, stop what you're doing and listen to me. Our firm's new senior partner, Jiang Xuanzhou, is coming soon. When he arrives, everyone stand at the door to greet him. First, make sure he's dressed neatly and his hair and makeup are in order. Don't let him down."
As Su Qiong passed by Xu Wan, she patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You probably already knew, so I won't say any more."
Xu Wan was slightly surprised.
Has Jiang Tingzhou not arrived yet?
Who are the people in the reception room now?
Xu Wan quickly straightened her clothes and hurried towards the reception room.
When she pushed open the glass door of the reception room, she saw a middle-aged couple sitting inside, and the wife was someone she knew all too well!
The visitors were Mr. Gu and Cao Yating!
Xu Wan took a step forward, closed the door to the reception room first, and then said warily, "May I ask what business you two have with me? If it's about what happened that day, just send the court summons over. If you two cause trouble here, we have surveillance cameras that record the audio, and I will call the police immediately."
This is her workplace, and she absolutely cannot let Cao Yating cause trouble here!
“Attorney Xu, you’ve misunderstood.” Mr. Gu was the first to stand up. “We’ve come here specifically to apologize to you.”
Seeing her husband stand up, Cao Yating immediately stood up as well and echoed, "Yes, yes, we came here specifically to apologize to you. What happened a few days ago was my fault. I was being petty and unreasonable."
Xu Wan stared at Cao Yating. Even though she was wearing makeup, you could see that her face was slightly swollen, as if she had been beaten.
Cao Yating also noticed Xu Wan's gaze, quickly covered his face with his hands, lowered his head and continued, "It's not just this time, but also before. I'm just a narrow-minded person. I went to your grandmother's house to cause trouble and said some unpleasant things that hurt you and the old lady. Now that I think about it, I really didn't have a brain."
“I also bear some responsibility here. I indulged my wife’s domineering behavior, which caused harm to your family. A few days ago, we went to the Ma family to see your maternal grandmother and sincerely apologized to her. She accepted our apology.”
As the company's CEO, Gu's father said he was apologizing, but his posture was upright, and his attitude was as if he were informing Xu Wan about the matter.
Xu Wan was startled, "You went to see my grandmother?"
“We’re going to apologize to her!” Cao Yating quickly said. “I was too impulsive back then. Luckily, the old lady is in good health now, otherwise I really wouldn’t know how to make up for my mistake.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Gu coughed twice.
Cao Yating glanced at Gu's father behind her, as if he was struggling with something. She looked at Xu Wan and asked, "Attorney Xu, we are here today to sincerely apologize. I promise that I will not do anything to harass or hurt you again. I hope you can forgive us!"
She could tell that Cao Yating and Gu's father had come to apologize, and she guessed that Jiang Tingzhou had probably sent them.
But the way these two people were hesitant to speak made it seem like there was something they wanted to say but couldn't.
"Knock knock knock".
Before Xu Wan could speak, there was a knock on the door of the reception room.
The next second, the receptionist opened the door and said to Xu Wan, "Attorney Xu, Attorney Su asked me to inform you that PAR Jiang has arrived and asked you to go over first."
Before the receptionist could finish speaking, Jiang Tingzhou had already appeared behind her.
The man pushed open the door to the reception room and walked in, saying to the receptionist, "You can go out first. I happen to know the two people that Attorney Xu is meeting. I'll listen to their conversation here before I leave. Tell the people outside to wait a moment."
