"It's inconvenient and unnecessary."
Zhou Mo lowered his head and took out Han Chen's bank card from his bag and handed it to him. "I agree with what you said about maintaining the status quo. I'll return your things to you."
Han Chen looked at the bank card with deep eyes.
"What's the meaning?"
"It's nothing." Zhou Mo didn't want to explain any more. He took Han Chen's hand and slapped the card on his palm. "I also want to maintain the status quo."
Han Chen's hand holding the card tightened unconsciously.
Seeing that he didn't react much, Zhou Mo thought that he agreed with her approach.
"Goodbye."
Zhou Mo turned around and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, someone grabbed her wrist. Zhou Mo turned around and looked down at Han Chen holding her hand.
"Is there something wrong?" Her wrist was burned by Han Chen's palm.
Han Chen didn't know what to say.
Obviously everything was going according to his preset track, and Zhou Mo didn't get angry with him, but he always felt that something was not going well.
Just like now, Zhou Mo left so calmly, but he didn't want to let her go.
The office door suddenly opened.
Ling Yuebin was about to say "Why don't you come in", but when he saw Han Chen quickly let go of Zhou Mo's hand, the words were on the tip of his tongue but he didn't say them out loud.
"I'll go see the patient, you guys go in and talk."
Ling Yuebin quickly left.
Han Chen's eyes darkened, and he pushed the door open. "Come in and talk."
"No, I've said everything I wanted to say," Zhou Mo smiled faintly, "Goodbye."
After saying that, he turned around and left quickly.
Han Chen held the card, still keeping the door open, and watched Zhou Mo leave.
Zhou Mo wanted to leave, and he couldn't keep him.
He was still at work and couldn't possibly chase after her.
When he said "maintain the status quo", Zhou Mo kept a tight grip on the sense of proportion, and they became familiar strangers again.
I finally made it to the end of get off work.
Liang Dongyan called.
"Have you thought about what to say at the 'birthday party'? Just pick some topic that can engage Wen Luan in conversation. As long as Lu Yaocheng shows up, there will be a chance."
Han Chen pressed the elevator button and went downstairs. "He's an obstetrician. We have nothing in common."
"Then find a way to create a common topic!"
"Let's talk about it later." Han Chen was very annoyed.
"The birthday party is the day after tomorrow, brother, you can't let down at the critical moment."
"Let's talk about it later." Han Chen was still annoyed and hung up the phone directly.
The elevator went down to the parking lot on the second floor below ground. Han Chen unlocked the door, got in the car, started it, and drove away.
At that time.
Zhou Mo accompanied Zhou Zheng to watch a legal program.
Liu Xiangru was busy in the kitchen. She took two clumps of garlic and an empty bowl and placed them in front of Zhou Mo.
Zhou Mo obediently and skillfully pulled over the trash can, squatted on the ground and started peeling garlic.
"Usually, you have to persuade him to come home, but why did you come back on your own today?" Liu Xiangru asked with her hands on her hips.
Zhou Mo peeled garlic and said, "Today is Friday, and I don't have to go to work tomorrow. Why can't I go back home?"
"You girl, you just like to challenge me," Liu Xiangru said angrily.
Zhou Zheng also picked up the garlic on the coffee table and started peeling it. "Isn't it good that the girl is willing to come back?"
Liu Xiangru glared at her, "What do you know? I'm afraid she'll get upset outside and won't tell me when she gets home."
Zhou Zheng said, "Who dares to make us Momo angry, right, girl?"
Zhou Mo smiled happily, "Dad is still the best."
Liu Xiangru glanced at the father and daughter. "I'm worried that Yu Yizhou will come to trouble Momo again. The lawsuit against Yu Yizhou will take some time according to the procedures. I heard that your Aunt Liang's nephew has encountered some trouble recently. I'm not sure if it can go smoothly. Otherwise, we should just change lawyers."
Zhou Zheng said, "The process has nothing to do with the lawyer. Even if you change lawyers, you still have to go through the process. It's just slower than it is now, not faster. The main bottleneck is the acceptance process. There's a huge backlog of cases, and it's just a matter of when it's your turn. I heard that even those who go to jail for drunk driving have to wait in line now."
He has worked within the system and has a deep understanding of the ins and outs of it.
Liu Xiangru was worried, "What should I do then?"
Zhou Zheng sighed, "If I could get to know someone in the judicial field and say hello, maybe it would speed things up."
The problem is they don't know each other.
"It doesn't matter whether the speed is increased or not. As long as we can win the lawsuit, at least we have hope. I'm afraid that if the court rules, even if we win, Yu Yizhou may not stop harassing us."
Zhou Zheng threw the peeled garlic cloves into the empty bowl, "This is also a headache."
Seeing that Zhou Zheng had no idea, Liu Xiangru became even more worried. "Momo, you're living alone out here, so be careful. Yu Yizhou has an extreme personality and bad intentions. If you see him, avoid him."
"I know," Zhou Mo thought Liu Xiangru was being nagging. "Don't worry, I've lived alone for such a long time, so I'm fine. Besides, the property security in our community is pretty good. We live in a society ruled by law now, so Yu Yizhou can't do anything to me."
Speaking of Yu Yizhou, Zhou Mo asked, "Mom, does Aunt Zhang who introduced Yu Yizhou to me have a bad relationship with you?"
"No? What's wrong?" Liu Xiangru wondered.
"No, I just suddenly remembered that when you went to Manshan County as a judge, wasn't she your competitor?"
"There's no such thing as competition or no competition when it comes to judging. It's all arranged by the leadership."
Zhou Mo stopped what he was doing and asked, "Why did they send you and not her?"
Liu Xiangru: "Well, she didn't get the 'Excellent Teacher' award last year."
Zhou Mo was stunned for a moment. "She competed with you for the 'Excellent Teacher' award last year?"
"It's not really a competition. For this kind of award, whoever meets the criteria just reports it. Whether it's given or not depends on the leader's opinion."
Liu Xiangru was still immersed in her innocence, but Zhou Mo had already reacted.
It was definitely a malicious revenge by Liu Xiangru's colleague named Zhang.
Liu Xiangru is valued by her leader in every way and has a part in everything. I guess that colleague named Zhang has pink eye.
"Mom, your colleagues are too unreliable. Don't tell them about me in the future, or they will introduce me to someone else."
Liu Xiangru: "Don't worry, every failure is a learning experience. Your dad and I won't rush you into finding a partner in the future. We'll wait until you graduate with your doctorate."
Zhou Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and happily gave Liu Xiangru a hug, "Mom is still the best."
Liu Xiangru pushed her away in disgust, "Go wash your hands quickly. They stink after peeling garlic."
Zhou Mo bandaged his hands, "..."
It’s my real mother.
After peeling the garlic, Zhou Mo took it to the kitchen, went back to the bathroom to wash his hands, and continued to watch TV with Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng peeled an orange and handed it to Zhou Mo, "Momo."
"Huh?" Zhou Mo was looking at the TV, then came back to his senses and saw this. He took the orange, broke it into two pieces, and returned half to Zhou Zheng.
"You eat," Zhou Zheng pushed over. "Momo, are you still close to Han Chen?"
Zhou Mo had a mouthful of orange stuck in his throat, "Cough cough cough."
Zhou Zheng quickly pulled out a piece of paper for her and said, "Eat slowly."
Zhou Mo wiped his lips and looked at Zhou Zheng hesitantly, "Dad, why are you asking this?"
Zhou Zheng: "Han Chen seems to know Director Feng. If you have a close relationship, you can ask Han Chen about it. If he really knows Director Feng, talk to him and speed up Yu Yizhou's case."
