Yu Shuangshuang believed that Xu Wan was a perfectly good person.
However, she still relayed these words to Xu Wan, cautiously reminding her: "Wanwan, I think you should be careful. I don't know what I was blind to fall for Xie Ning before. After all these things, I feel more and more that he doesn't tell the truth and is full of bad intentions. I'm really afraid he'll retaliate against you..."
"It's alright. I haven't done anything wrong, so what am I afraid of? Just take good care of Nannan and don't let him cause you any trouble."
Xu Wan didn't think she had any leverage over Xie Ning.
Xu Wan symbolically accepted a few thousand yuan for Yu Shuangshuang's case, but it was still considered a success.
On the way back, Xu Wan called Su Qiong to tell her the good news.
After listening to her, Su Qiong smiled and said, "That's good. It's not easy to get a divorce in the first instance. It will also help you in the future."
“Well, this case is special. Xie Ning had an improper relationship with a man before marriage, and the evidence is conclusive. In addition, he is infected with HIV. Although Shuangshuang is currently unemployed, all things considered, it shouldn’t be difficult to get a divorce in the first instance.” Xu Wan said easily, “I’m also lucky. Shuangshuang won’t have to worry about getting entangled with scumbags in the future.”
"Well, I'm going on a business trip for the next few days. Once the case is over, take a break. Don't work overtime unless necessary. We'll talk about it when I get back," Su Qiong said.
With the case closed, Xu Wan finally felt relieved.
Adding to the fact that it was a cloudy day with low air pressure and little sunshine, she fell asleep against the back of her seat without realizing it.
When I woke up again, the car had already driven to the entrance of Tianyuan Law Firm.
Today, it was still Lü Wei who picked up and dropped off Xu Wanlai and her family in Yinyi Town.
After Xu Wan got out of the car, Lü Wei immediately dialed Jiang Tingzhou's number.
Jiang Tingzhou was in a meeting when he saw Lü Wei's call and immediately answered, asking, "You're back?"
"Yes, the case was settled in the first trial, but the wife just said on the phone that it seems the husband is threatening her through her friend."
Lu Wei relayed what he had heard to Jiang Tingzhou.
Those who didn't hear it dared not speak out.
Jiang Tingzhou's face was cold as he said, "Understood. Send more people to protect her, make sure she doesn't notice anything, and make sure nothing happens to her."
Ever since the incident with Liu Xing, Jiang Tingzhou has been secretly sending people to protect Xu Wan.
However, Xu Wan spends most of her time at the law firm, and these people only follow her when she goes out.

Xu returned to the law firm at 6 p.m.
The sky outside was overcast, and it looked like it was about to rain. Colleagues who weren't in a hurry to work packed up their things and prepared to leave.
Xu Wan had just sat down and been organizing the materials for half an hour when she was disturbed by a loud rumble of thunder.
Looking at the weather, Xu Wan gave up her plan to work overtime.
Just as she was packing her things to leave, the public landline next to her suddenly rang.
Nowadays, people mostly communicate by phone. New clients usually call the front desk or assistant, and very few call the office.
Xu Wan hesitated for a moment, but still went over to answer it.
After answering the phone, Xu Wan said politely, "Hello, this is Tianyuan Law Firm."
"Attorney Xu?" He Wenqian's voice came from the other end of the phone. "That's great. I was worried that everyone in the law firm would leave because of the rain today. Go to the front desk now and get a file bag. Remember to put it in a rainproof bag and deliver it to the address I sent you. The client needs it urgently, and this document is very important. You must personally deliver it to the client."
"Attorney He..."
“Oh dear, I know this is taking up your time after get off work. This is Zhou PAR’s client’s document. He left without it today, but he’s going abroad tomorrow and needs to see it tonight. Could you please deliver it for him? I’ll have Zhou PAR thank you later.”
He Wenqian interrupted Xu Wan, using the pressure of a higher-ranking leader to suppress her.
In order not to delay her work, Xu Wan had no choice but to agree.
She quickly found the document, wrapped it in three layers of waterproof document bags, and then put it in a plastic bag as well, making sure it was 100% waterproof before leaving with the document.
The address He Wenqian sent her was in a CBD area in the northern part of the city.
He didn't send her the specific building number; he just told her to wait at the entrance of the parking lot above ground.
Xu Wan had just arrived at the agreed location with the documents when it started to rain.
