“He came, but I sent him away. I have several cases on my hands recently and I don’t have enough time. I would rather spend my free time with Xiaoxiao.” Xu Wan picked up a piece of tripe and put it in the hot pot. “I’m also very troubled by Gu Qing. I have made it very clear to him over the past few years that there is no possibility between us, but he still insists on coming to me. I’m really afraid that his mother will think that I’m keeping her son on a leash and will come to the law firm to cause trouble one day.”
Ji Tong agreed: "Yes, yes, you are a highly sought-after marriage lawyer now. My dad even asked me before if I could poach you from our family law firm. He only gave up after I told him about your annual salary."
Xu Wan has grown a lot in the past few years, as evidenced by the divorce case that was concluded in the first half of the year.
In this case, Xu Wan was the woman's lawyer.
The woman is the daughter of the CEO of a listed company, and her ex-husband is a college classmate and an ordinary person.
After the two got married, the ex-husband continued to work at the woman's company, while the woman became a full-time housewife. A few years ago, the woman's father became seriously ill, and the ex-husband took over the company and then cheated on her.
During her time as a lawyer, Xu Wan not only found evidence of her ex-husband transferring assets, but also discovered that he had poisoned her father.
When the case was closed, the ex-husband was imprisoned, and the woman returned to the workforce.
This case made Xu Wan famous, and she is now a top-notch marriage lawyer at Tianyuan Law Firm.
Ji Tong has been working steadily and peacefully at Tianwei, and her work is not busy.
Xu Wan didn't want to keep the conversation about herself, so she asked, "Aren't you annoyed by your parents pressuring you to go on blind dates lately? Have you considered dating Dr. Gong...?"
"He's not married yet?" Ji Tong blinked. "He's getting on in years. How is he now? Has he managed to get some kind of position at Shenghe Hospital? He can't still be just an ordinary doctor, can he?"
Ji Tong was unaware of Gong Yanli's identity and didn't think his promotion was slow.
That's how it is with studying medicine; there are plenty of people who graduate with a doctorate at thirty and just start working, and they're becoming increasingly sought after.
"No, I asked him for help with a case before, and I don't think I saw him wearing a wedding ring."
Xu Wan and Gong Yanli weren't very close, so it was impossible for Xu Wan to care about his love life.
Jiang Tingzhou didn't reveal Gong Yanli's identity back then, and he still hasn't revealed it now.
Ji Tong pouted, "That's not surprising. With that expression of someone owing him eight million every now and then, what girl would be interested in him? If I went on a blind date with someone like that, I wouldn't even be able to say three sentences before I left."
"Dr. Gong is a decent person."
"Come on, I can't even be bothered to mention how he used me to coax his ex-girlfriend last time." Ji Tong said, resting her chin on her hand, feeling upset. "Sigh, get ready. If I had someone like your senior Gu, who is loyal, handsome, and runs a good company, I would have gotten married long ago."
After graduating from university, Gu Qing started an information technology company, which has been doing well in recent years. He is now considered a golden bachelor in Beicheng.
"How about next time I see him, I ask him if he has any close colleagues?"
"No need. I think it depends on fate. There's no point in forcing it if there's no fate."
Ji Tong resolutely refused.
The two sisters chatted until 10 p.m.
Ji Tong helped Xu Wan clear the table before preparing to leave.
As she was leaving, she looked at the wedding photo on the wall and couldn't help but say, "Wanwan, I really think people should always look forward. If someone hasn't been heard from for three years, legally they can apply to have their account closed. If you find a good man, don't just reject him directly. At least give him a chance, maybe have a meal together or something."
Xu Wan opened the door. "Alright, go back now, or your parents will worry."
Ji Tong made a phone call gesture, "Call me if you need anything."
-
The man Ji Tong mentioned appeared in Xu Wan's life six months later.
It wasn't Gu Qing, but Xu Zeqian, the final lawyer in An Yunya's case.
Xu Zeqian is also a very famous lawyer in the country. His firm, Qianxing Law Firm, is one of the top-tier law firms, and he is also the youngest founder of a top-tier law firm.
After losing the last lawsuit, he began working to recruit Xu Wan to his law firm.
