Xu Wan took out her phone and glanced at it; sure enough, it was a message from Lin Yu.
Lin Yu: [Lawyer sister, I'm already at the law firm entrance. Have you arrived yet? If not, I'll wait for you downstairs in a bit.]
When Xu Wan checked the message, Jiang Tingzhou didn't look at it himself, but instead asked, "What did it say?"
"He said he'd arrived and was waiting for me downstairs."
Xu Wan answered truthfully.
Tianyuan Law Firm does not have a dedicated parking lot; employees park their cars in the monthly parking lot behind the firm.
The two had reached the corner and were just a few steps away from the entrance of Tianyuan Law Firm.
Xu Wan consciously moved closer to the man. "If he's waiting for me at the door later, I'll introduce you first."
"Yes, let the child know that you are married. If he still acts so inappropriately, you wouldn't like him given his character."
Jiang Tingzhou spoke in a calm tone, but it was clear from his words that he was very bothered by Lin Yu.
“I don’t care whether he has any sense of propriety or not, I only like you,” Xu Wan said with a smile.
As the two people walked around the corner, they saw Lin Yu.
It was getting cold. The boy seemed to be wearing two sweatshirts, one inside the other, and long pants. He had a beret tilted to one side on his head and was kicking a stone at his feet with his head down.
Even without saying or doing anything, he exudes the youthful vigor of a male college student.
Jiang Tingzhou took his hand off Xu Wan's shoulder.
Xu Wan took two steps forward and called out, "Lin Yu."
Lin Yu looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xu Wan. Her face immediately lit up with a bright smile. "Good morning, lawyer sister!"
"Yes, sorry to keep you waiting."
Xu Wan's attitude was different from his; she spoke to him in a completely businesslike tone, as if she were dealing with a client.
Lin Yu wasn't angry. He smiled and shook his head, "No, I just arrived a few minutes ago. I didn't know who to look for upstairs, so I'll wait for you downstairs." After he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Jiang Tingzhou. "Is this also Tianyuan's lawyer?"
“Yes, he is a partner at Tianyuan Law Firm.” Xu Wan reached out and took the arm of the man beside her. “He is also my husband, Jiang Tingzhou.”
"ah……"
Lin Yu acted as if she hadn't expected this at all. Her movements immediately became very awkward. She rubbed her hands together helplessly in front of her, and finally put them in her pocket. She forced a smile and said, "Oh, I didn't expect you to get married, lawyer sister."
"Okay." Xu Wan saw Lin Yu's attitude and knew that her goal had been achieved. She took the man's arm and said, "Let's go upstairs and talk about your case."
"……good."
After learning that Xu Wan was married, Lin Yu seemed to stop thinking altogether, and even her speech was slow.
The three went upstairs.
Jiang Tingzhou went to his office, while Xu Wan, carrying her laptop, went to the meeting room with Lin Yu.
After the two sat down, Lin Yu didn't bring up the case first, but apologized first: "Lawyer sister, I'm so sorry, I really didn't know you were married before. Did sending you messages bother you and your husband? I'm so sorry."
"It's nothing," Xu Wan replied simply, getting straight to the point, "Let me briefly explain the lawsuit process to you first."
"Ah, okay."
"Generally speaking, the principle for a court to grant a divorce is that the relationship between the couple has broken down. In other words, if one party does not agree to the divorce, it is difficult to grant the divorce in the first instance. In that case, the second instance can only be filed after six months. Therefore, the divorce process can be very long. The first thing you need to do is go back and tell your mother so that she can be mentally prepared."
Xu Wan first explained the biggest difference between filing for divorce and divorce by mutual consent.
"To be honest, ever since the incident, my father has been verbally abusing my mother every day. If we can't get a divorce in a short time, my mother may not be able to take it mentally."
Lin Yu's face was full of worry as she spoke.
Xu Wanxian said, "You can file a lawsuit first. There is a pre-trial mediation, and the judge can try to mediate at that time."
Lin Yu thought for a while and asked Xu Wan, "Lawyer, in the cases you handle, under what circumstances would a man suddenly change his mind and want a divorce?"
“…” Xu Wan pondered for a moment and replied, “Either he will rise to great heights, or he will fall in love with his mistress.”
