Chapter 38 Tonight... Do you want me to keep you company?
How did he win this case without crucial evidence?!
night.
Nanxia arrived at the private room that Director Zhou had booked. She was a little late, and everyone was already inside when she came in.
She glanced at Song Yanzhi, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa with his long legs crossed, leaning lazily against the back of the sofa, and slowly swaying a glass of XO in his hand, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.
The two exchanged a silent glance.
When Zhou Yuanming saw that she had finally arrived, he called out, "Attorney Nan, come and sit down."
Nan Xia smiled and nodded, walked to the table, poured herself a glass of wine, picked it up, and deliberately said loudly to everyone:
"Director Zhou and Attorney Song must have won their cases today, right? They are role models in our legal profession, and everyone should learn from them!"
Especially Director Zhou, with decades of experience in litigation, is invaluable. We should find some time to have him train everyone.
"Come, let's raise a toast to our two distinguished lawyers."
The other employees forced a smile and raised their glasses. Half an hour earlier, Lawyer Song had praised Director Zhou in the same way, saying that Director Zhou had won the case this afternoon and that we should all applaud and toast him!
Can--
Director Zhou lost the case this afternoon!!!
Director Zhou's face looked extremely grim at that moment.
At this moment, Nan Lu praised Director Zhou again and even offered him a toast. Wasn't this just rubbing salt into his wounds?
This is the first time that Southern Law and Song Law have been so in sync.
"..." Song Yanzhi looked at Nan Xia, who was praising the old fox with great enthusiasm, his cold eyes were full of smiles, and he couldn't help but glance at the old fox, whose face had turned liver-colored!
Was she doing it on purpose?
Zhou Yuanming, who was usually very smooth-talking, couldn't hold back anymore and was so embarrassed that he wanted to leave immediately!
In the afternoon, he didn't tell Nan Xia that he had lost the case, nor did he tell her that Song Yanzhi had won the case in the morning, so he couldn't blame her for his anger.
He had to feign magnanimity and smile as he said to her, "I'm old and can't compare to you young people. I lost the case this afternoon, so please don't flatter me, Attorney Nan."
"Director Zhou, you... lost Ruifeng's case?" Nan Xia looked surprised, but couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
Last time, she not only copied the data from that old fox's computer, but also used a key to open his locked drawer and modified the evidence for all his upcoming lawsuits.
Ten years ago, the Nan family group was framed. The father hired Zhou Yuanming as his lawyer, but the man was bribed by the other party, causing the Nan family to go bankrupt, the group to be acquired, and the company to be burdened with huge debts.
My dad couldn't take the shock and jumped off a building.
Nanxia was only fifteen years old at the time. She, her mother, and her sister were forced to live on the streets after leaving a wealthy family. They were threatened and beaten by debt collectors. To avoid their debts, they hid in various places, lived under bridges, ate rotten leaves from the market, and were even scorned by their relatives as a plague.
They were completely unwilling to lend a helping hand.
They fled to a small city in another city and barely managed to settle down, but they were penniless, and the pampered mother had to work as a dishwasher in a restaurant.
They insisted that she and her sister go to school. After school, the two sisters would collect bottles every day, which made them the target of ridicule from their classmates. They were even almost kidnapped by human traffickers.
But Nanxia was quite ambitious. She completed the entire high school curriculum in one year, went to the best university in the country, obtained her lawyer's license, and became stronger step by step by any means necessary.
Song Yanzhi caused her to lose two lawsuits, which was a huge blow to her. Now everyone thinks that she is not as good as Song Yanzhi.
This has inadvertently reduced the number of people seeking her out for major lawsuits, but she still has debts to pay off and support her elderly mother and sister.
How could he possibly know the hardships she endured to get to where she is today?!
In order to get close to Zhou Yuanming and let him experience the feeling of being tricked and then dying in despair, Nan Xia deliberately joined the law firm downstairs.
She also discovered that Zhou Yuanming and Song Yanzhi were at odds, and deliberately made herself a mortal enemy of Song Yanzhi, but she didn't expect that the two of them were really at odds.
She never expected that she would fall in love with this incompatible man.
When Zhou Yuanming heard her exclamation of surprise and her loud voice, his face darkened even more. He had been confident of winning the case, but his assistant had written down the wrong evidence.
He scolded his assistant that afternoon.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Nanxia pretended to be embarrassed and suppressed a laugh, "Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war. After all, no one can be as abnormal as Attorney Song."
After saying that, she downed the XO in her glass, went over and sat down next to Zhou Yuanming, comforting him: "Director Zhou, don't be discouraged, we still have plenty of opportunities..."
Ha, as long as I'm in this law firm, he won't win a single case in the future!
Among the documents copied that day, there was an encrypted folder; it must contain some great secret—
The password is very complicated, so we need to find a skilled hacker.
Song Yanzhi couldn't help but look at the woman whispering with the old fox. He couldn't understand her anymore. She seemed very close to Zhou Yuanming, but just now she seemed to be embarrassing him.
What exactly does she mean?
Nanxia drank a few glasses of strong liquor and felt a little dizzy. When she went to the restroom, she unexpectedly ran into the same bespectacled male model from last time.
"Sister!" He walked up to her in a few steps and called out sweetly.
Nan Xia felt very uncomfortable thinking about the person who lived with his assistant, and how he even turned a blind eye when Zhizhi was thrown and injured. She deliberately teased the male model by pinching his chin with one hand.
"You've gotten even more handsome in just a few days."
The male model suddenly leaned closer, put an arm around her slender waist, tilted his head, and whispered in her ear, "Sister, I've been thinking about you these past few days. Tonight... do you want me to keep you company?"
After she finished speaking, a cold-looking man in a black suit and frameless glasses stopped behind her, staring at her with sharp eyes.
His eyes were like knives.
I wish I could stick a few holes in him.
"Sister, do you know that man?" he asked in a low voice, a little scared. What if he was her boyfriend? He might get beaten up.
Nan Xia turned around and saw her ex-boyfriend. She smiled at him and deliberately said to the male model, "Just a colleague. Where do you live? Let's go to your place tonight."
"Of course, as long as you don't mind, sister. Shall we go now?" He looked down at her in her black business dress, which looked like a very proper temptation.
"Let's go, we can't be so unlucky as to run into a prostitution raid this time."
Nanxia held the male model's hand as she walked past her ex-boyfriend. If he could sleep with other women, why couldn't she sleep with other men?
Song Yanzhi turned back to look at her, his usually cool eyes slightly darkening.
Inside the taxi.
"Sister, I'm starting to like you. Will you take me in as your sugar daddy? I'll pay any price..."
The male model's hand rested on Nan Xia's leg, and he leaned closer to her, eager to kiss her sexy red lips.
Nan Xia frowned in disgust and abruptly turned her face away. She still couldn't accept being touched by a man she didn't like.
