Ling Ya had mentioned earlier that she wanted to cancel Jiang Tingzhou's household registration.
She wasn't in a hurry to get the law to acknowledge her son's death, but she couldn't bear to see Xu Wan trapped in this relationship.
She was very satisfied with Xu Wan as her daughter-in-law.
It's a pity that her son has been missing for so many years. Xu Wan is still young and shouldn't be trapped.
Fearing that Ling Ya might actually do that, Xu Wan quickly said, "Mom, don't be impulsive, Tingzhou is really still alive!"
“Wanwan, that’s enough.” Lingya thought Xu Wan was still stubbornly sticking to her own opinion. “I also really hope my son is still alive. This is not ancient times. Information is readily available now. If someone has no news for four and a half years, the probability of survival is extremely low. You are still young. You can’t live for that faint hope.”
"mom……"
"Wanwan, I won't ask who that person was yesterday. It doesn't matter who it was. You were once the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, and the Jiang family will always be your support. Although the Jiang family is not as powerful as before, we will not let anyone bully you."
Lingya's voice was gentle.
Since Jiang Tingzhou disappeared, Jiang Detian believed what Xu Wan said and took control of the company's main business. In recent years, Tianwei's development speed has slowed down significantly, and its status is not as good as before.
Jiang De'an then took over the An family's business and the projects that the An family and the Jiang family had collaborated on years ago.
We had just made progress when, unexpectedly, a foreign company developed a similar technology that surpassed Anjia's in every aspect.
Jiang De'an suffered a huge loss.
Xu Wan didn't know the specifics either.
She gripped her phone tightly and said to Lingya, "Mom, no matter what happens, I am still the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. No one and nothing can change that."
"Oh dear, you're so stubborn," Ling Ya sighed helplessly. "Anyway, remember this: if you find a suitable candidate, don't hesitate."
"Okay, Mom."
Xu Wan reluctantly agreed.
She had just hung up the phone when someone tapped her on the shoulder.
Turning around, she was surprised to see Xu Zeqian standing behind her.
"Attorney Xu, what a coincidence." Xu Zeqian smiled kindly. "What brings you here?"
Previously in Haicheng, Xu Zeqian contacted Xu Wan several more times, but Xu Wan refused each time.
Now that they've met here, Xu Wan took the opportunity to say, "There was a boy and his mother at my daughter's kindergarten who said some hurtful things to me and my daughter. I'm going to sue them."
Xu Zeqian's expression showed surprise, "I only knew that Attorney Xu had been married before, I didn't expect that he even has a child."
Xu Zeqian served as An Yunya's lawyer in the final trial. At that time, Xu Wan had already given birth to Xiao Xiao, and her pregnancy was not visible.
“My daughter is three and a half years old this year.” Xu Wan looked at Xu Zeqian and said seriously, “By the way, in Lawyer Xu’s opinion, I have been married, but in my heart, my marriage with Tingzhou has not ended. Unless we find his body one day, I will always firmly believe that he will come back.”
Xu Zeqian paused for a few seconds. "Attorney Xu, I understand how you feel, but we are lawyers. I believe you have handled missing persons cases just like me..." He stopped mid-sentence and only said, "However, if you have a daughter, then the child will definitely want a complete family."
Xu Zeqian's intention to pursue Xu Wan was quite obvious.
He did not back down after learning that Xu Wan had a daughter; instead, he took the initiative to express his own thoughts.
Xu Wan smiled slightly, "My daughter will have one."
-
Thursday, two days later.
Xu Wan had met with a client early in the morning and had just returned to the law firm at 11 a.m. when the receptionist rushed over and said, "Attorney Xu, someone came looking for you in a very aggressive manner. Since you weren't there, Attorney Yuan seemed to know him and called him away."
"aggressive?"
"I was just really angry," the receptionist explained.
Xu Wan had met people like this before. They were basically people who felt they shouldn't have taken a certain case and even came to question her professional ethics.
However, she is different from before; she can handle everything on her own now.
"I understand. I'll go to Attorney Yuan's office. Since they came to see me, I shouldn't trouble Attorney Yuan."
As Xu Wan spoke, she got up and walked towards Lawyer Yuan's office.
As soon as she reached the door, a man's angry voice came from inside, "Isn't she just an ordinary lawyer? You don't need to defend her like this. If I'm not happy, she can quit this profession!"
