Jiang Xuanzhou.
Xu Wan was speechless for a moment when she heard the name.
She was too young when her mother had the accident, and she was very dissatisfied with the verdict in 2013. After the third trial, she even chased after Jiang Xuanzhou's car out of resentment.
That day, Jiang Xuanzhou stopped the car and said those words to her through the car window—
"The purpose of the law is to maintain national order. No matter how many hidden reasons are behind a person's murder, murder is murder. If someone violates the law, they must bear the consequences. If anyone in this society commits murder and is not punished by law for some reason, then a second or third person will take advantage of this reason to kill more people."
She memorized every single word of those words.
When she got home, she copied it onto a piece of paper and tucked it into her diary.
At the time, she felt that what he said was wrong.
Later, as I grew up reading and learned about various cases during my school years, I gradually came to accept this statement.
Dong Yuanyuan was so angry her eyes turned red: "When your mother went through the third trial, Jiang Xuanzhou was still a rookie lawyer. You guys really got incredibly lucky. Otherwise, with your abilities, you wouldn't have been able to hire him at all!"
Xu Wan agreed with Dong Yuanyuan's statement.
After winning Xu Pingrong's case, Jiang Xuanzhou remained active in Beicheng, winning many major cases over three years without losing a single one, becoming a legend in the legal field.
Just when everyone thought he would continue to write his legend, he chose to retire from the limelight and become a non-litigation lawyer, and now rarely appears in public.
While the two were still arguing, Xie Ning walked over and asked, "What are you talking about? Why are you having such a heated discussion?"
Dong Yuanyuan immediately composed herself, "I was catching up with my cousin."
"Attorney Xu is your cousin? What a coincidence! Then please help me persuade Attorney Xu not to let my wife divorce me. I truly love her." Xie Ning looked at Xu Wan. "As the saying goes, it's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage, right?"
"Did you hear that, Attorney Xu? But I think you and your mother are the same kind of people; it's hard for you to understand this."
"I suddenly feel that Mr. Xie and Attorney Dong are a perfect match."
Dong Yuanyuan's expression suddenly turned sour: "What are you saying?"
Xu Wan smiled slightly: "After all, AIDS and rabies are both incurable diseases."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked out.
When Dong Yuanyuan and Xie Ning chased after them, Lü Wei got out of the car first to protect her.
-
Xu Wan thought that after meeting Dong Yuanyuan this time, she would never see her again.
Early Wednesday morning, as soon as she entered the company, Su Qiong called her to her office.
“Xu Wan, the company has hired four interns this year. One of them is the daughter of Lawyer He’s friend, which is unexpected. She doesn’t have a place to sit yet, so we’ll have to add a table opposite yours. You’ll have to make do for now. I interviewed her. Although she has a master’s degree, her professional skills are very average. I estimate she won’t stay for more than two months.”
Su Qiong comforted her.
"It's okay, let her sit across from me. I just graduated from school a year ago, so she can ask me if she doesn't understand anything."
When Xu Wan said this, she was doing so based on the principle of mutual help among colleagues.
Su Qiong smiled and said, "Okay, just don't let it interfere with your work."
When Xu Wan returned to her workstation, she found that the intern's desk had been placed opposite hers, causing her chair to be pressed against the wall, making it impossible for her to walk behind.
Xu Wan didn't care about any of that and lowered her head to start working.
The bandage on her right hand has been removed. Although it cannot be fully restored for the time being, she can still hold a pen normally.
Xu Wan had been working for over an hour when she heard He Wenqian's voice.
"Xiao Dong, you'll be sitting here from now on. The lady across from you is Xiao Xu, who joined the company last year. She graduated from China University of Political Science and Law and is your senior. If you don't understand anything, you can ask her first," He Wenqian introduced.
Xu Wan quickly put down what she was doing, put on a smile, and looked up, ready to greet the newcomers warmly...
The moment I saw the other person's face, all my smiles vanished.
The newcomer sitting opposite her was actually Dong Yuanyuan?!
Dong Yuanyuan was also a little surprised to see Xu Wan, but she still put on a fake smile and said politely, "Hello, my name is Dong Yuanyuan. I'm starting work at Tianyuan today. Please take care of me in the future."
