Xu Wan could guess that what Xiao Yinlan was going to talk about must be related to her mother's time as a nanny at Anjia back then.
She knew very well that her mother would never do anything illegal.
But her mother had just been released from prison, and she dared not gamble.
Xu Pingrong sat down next to Xu Wan and noticed that his daughter's expression was not good. He asked, "Do you have work to do?"
"Ah, it's about the law firm, it's nothing."
Xu Wan turned her phone screen upside down so her mother wouldn't see the message.
Xu Pingrong always trusted his daughter completely and never doubted anything.
As dinner was drawing to a close, Ma Xiaolin returned home, dressed as before in a T-shirt and shorts, radiating youthful energy.
"elder sister!"
When Ma Xiaolin saw Xu Wan, she was overjoyed. She changed her shoes and immediately came over to hug Xu Wan's neck, kissing her several times on the face. "You're so amazing! You've cleared everything up in just a few days."
How are your relationships with your classmates?
Xu Wan is quite concerned about this.
Because of her parents' situation, she was ostracized by her classmates at school. If it weren't for her strong will and Yu Shuangshuang's companionship, she wouldn't have been able to get through junior high school smoothly.
She knew all too well the psychological impact of being treated differently by her classmates.
Ma Xiaolin stood up straight, put her hands on her hips, and said proudly, "I'm really popular among my classmates now. Not only did I get that headset from my brother-in-law, but they also apologized to me one by one for slandering me without even knowing the facts."
"That's good." Xu Wan was finally relieved.
Ma Xiaolin pulled up a chair and sat down next to Xu Wan, asking, "Sister, are you studying law? I've heard online that advising someone to study law is a recipe for disaster, but now I feel that studying law isn't so bad. It can protect yourself and your family. I plan to study hard in high school and get into China University of Political Science and Law to be your junior."
Xu Pingshan was the first to raise her hand, "As long as you can get in, I have no objections."
Although Huaguo University of Political Science and Law is not one of the top three universities in the country, its admission scores are ridiculously high, especially for liberal arts students, making it the second best university.
Xu Wan also expressed her opinion: "Let me make it clear first, lawyers are not the embodiment of justice. Their starting point is to help their clients. There are many kinds of clients. Sometimes, being a defense lawyer might be aiding and abetting evil."
"Huh?" Ma Xiaolin felt her worldview being turned upside down. "Then, then I'll only help good people with their cases."
“There aren’t that many perfect victims. The vast majority of victims who come to you for legal action are not perfect victims.” Xu Wan looked at Ma Xiaolin seriously and said, “If you are a person with an overflowing sense of justice who only wants to serve perfect victims, then… you might be very poor.”
"Hahahaha." Ma Xiaolin paused for a moment, then looked at her mother. "It's okay, my mom will help me out, right?"
Xu Pingshan looked at her daughter with doting eyes, "Yes, yes, if you have no food, just come home. No matter how bad Mom's business is, you will definitely not go hungry or cold."
"That's good, I've decided, I want to be a lawyer in the future!"
As Ma Xiaolin spoke, she skipped upstairs.

After dinner, Jiang Tingzhou came to pick up Xu Wan and Xu Pingrong to go home.
Lights out in prison is at 9:30 p.m.
Xu Pingrong has been released from prison, but she spent more than ten years there, and her biological clock had long been set.
After returning home, she fell asleep quickly.
Xu Wan took a shower and sat on the sofa in front of the French windows in the living room, staring blankly at her phone...
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Tingzhou's voice suddenly appeared in my ear.
Xu Wan was startled and instinctively hid her phone behind her back, saying in a panic, "It's nothing."
Jiang Tingzhou's gaze fell on the woman's hidden phone. He didn't ask any further questions, stood up, and said, "I'm going to work in the study for a while. Remember to go to sleep if you're tired."
The man handled the situation well, which made Xu Wan feel even more guilty.
She quickly grabbed Jiang Tingzhou's hand, looking at the man with pleading eyes, "Don't go."
