Chapter 15 Alright, alright, it's not like he's the only one who knows how to steal!
In Jiang Yubai's memory, Nan Xia had been working at the law firm downstairs for four years. The two of them had been targeting each other since she joined the firm, and it had never stopped.
Song Yanzhi glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Nan Xia smiled wryly upon hearing his words, "You make a good point..."
Therefore, he and Lin Yi are a perfect match.
"By the way, how long did you talk?" he asked curiously.
Nan Xia crossed her arms and after a long pause, finally uttered two words, "...half a year."
"See? You two never lasted. It's good that you broke up." Jiang Yubai's mood instantly improved. They had broken up for two years, so he still had a chance.
Nan Xia walked out silently. When she took the bag from Song Yanzhi's hand, she glanced at him, and the two of them said nothing.
She went back inside and changed into a black three-quarter sleeve dress with a round neck. It was loose-fitting and about knee-length, and the dress looked rather old-fashioned.
Fortunately, she is good-looking and has a great figure, so the outfit doesn't look bad on her.
Who bought this?
She grabbed her handbag and left, saying, "I have something to do, so I'll be going now."
"Hey, wait a minute. I don't know if Lin Yi has left yet. Let me go down and check for you. If she sees you, you won't be able to explain yourself no matter what."
He followed her out, worried that the assistant would report her to the law firm. Nan Xia, however, misunderstood and thought the assistant was indeed Song Yanzhi's girlfriend, and laughed, saying:
"Attorney Song's girlfriend is also a model; not only is she not angry, she even personally delivers women's clothes to him."
“She’s just an ordinary assistant, not his girlfriend,” Jiang Yubai said.
Nanxia looked utterly astonished!
They have no relation whatsoever?
Standing at the doorway, she couldn't help but glance at Song Yanzhi, who was calmly smoking not far away. Surprisingly, he didn't refute her either.
Jiang Yubai went downstairs first and sure enough, he saw the assistant in the garden. He knew that if he was so curious, she couldn't possibly not be.
Besides, he had already realized that Lin Yi had a crush on this man.
Look at the outfit she bought for Nan Xia, did she deliberately buy such an ugly one?
This little girl is quite cunning!

Nanxia's apartment wasn't as large as Song Yan's, only about 160 square meters, but it was warmly decorated and located in a mid-to-high-end residential complex.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw her mother wearing a light blue tight-fitting yoga outfit, doing yoga while watching TV on the living room floor.
My mom has maintained her figure and skin extremely well, with long, wavy hair that makes her look like her sister. Well, it's all thanks to her hard-earned money.
Even though my mom is still heavily in debt, it hasn't changed her bourgeois tastes!
She insists on having the best of everything, and she's incredibly vain.
Nan's mother glanced at her daughter's clothes and clicked her tongue in disapproval. "My goodness! Your taste is getting worse and worse! How am I supposed to find a rich husband like this?"
"If men are reliable, pigs can fly," Nan Xia muttered as she changed into slippers at the door.
She never pinned her hopes on men. Making money, building a career, and reaching the pinnacle of life were her goals. Just like Song Yanzhi, whom she once loved to the core, they still couldn't stay together.
How much does he actually like himself?
“I think it’s because you’re not attractive enough, no man wants you,” said Nan’s mother, raising an eyebrow as she performed a challenging yoga pose.
"I don't mind if you go and find me a rich stepfather."
“How could those vulgar old men be worthy of me? Would you mind if I hooked up with a young, handsome man to be your stepfather?” she asked, touching her pretty face.
Nan Xia stopped, crossed her arms, looked at her mother, and uttered only two words to her, "You dare!"
It's one thing for her to spend my money alone, but she also wants to find a young, handsome guy to spend my money together?
"If it's not okay, it's not okay. Why be so fierce?" Nan's mother pouted, then thought for a moment and added:
"Hurry up and find me a rich husband, and get me a bigger house. This place is so cramped, I keep bumping into things every day, it's so annoying!"
"Then you can live alone, I'll rent a place elsewhere," Nanxia said to her mother.
"No way, I'll be scared living alone. You're not allowed to move out!" Nan's mother objected vehemently. Her youngest daughter was still in college and lived in a dormitory, so the two of them lived together.
She doesn't want to live alone.
“You’re over forty years old, and you’re still scared… How about we let the nanny stay at home with you?” Nanxia thought for a moment and then said.
"No, I don't want to live with people I don't know well." She refused.
Nanxia looked at her fussy mother with a sense of helplessness. If she couldn't move out, she couldn't live with Zhizhi, so she had no choice but to let it continue living in that man's house.
She walked to the side bedroom without saying anything more, while the master bedroom was occupied by her bourgeois mother.
"Did you go to a hotel again last night for business?" Nan's mother asked as she came to the door.
Nan Xia first plugged in her phone, which was switched off, then opened her laptop on her desk, quickly typed out a contract, and responded without even looking up:
"……Um."
"You should stay in hotels less often in the future. It's not safe for a young woman like you," she advised again.
"Okay, go do your yoga." Nanxia sat at her desk, engrossed in her work.
Suddenly remembering that his car was still at the suburban hotel, he picked up his phone and called his assistant, asking her to go and bring the car back right now.
The following morning.
Nanxia received a call from a boss she met at a party, who said he wanted to talk to her about a lawsuit. The two arranged to have dinner that evening to discuss it.
But when she called before leaving get off work, the boss actually said:
"I'm sorry, Attorney Nan, you're too busy, so I won't bother you any longer. I've already signed a contract with Attorney Song."
Nan Xia blinked in surprise, looked at the aloof man sitting opposite her who was reading documents, and laughed in exasperation—
When did he secretly contact Mr. Liu?
When did you sign the contract?
Nan Xia stood up, walked to the man opposite her, placed one hand on the conference table and the other on his shoulder, and smiled in a flattering manner:
"Ha, Attorney Song really knows how fast she can snatch up cases..."
Song Yanzhi leaned back in his chair, picked up a cigarette from the side, lit it, and let the smoke drift over his frameless glasses. He slowly turned his head to look at her, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He uttered four words in a way that was infuriating: "Thank you for the compliment."
Nanxia got angry just looking at his expression—he was so annoying, she wanted to teach him a lesson every day.
Song Yanzhi stood up, looking down at her and kindly reminding her:
“Attorney Nan should perhaps learn to be more discerning, to know who to keep his distance from, what he should do, and what he shouldn’t do. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t last long in this law firm.”
He still doesn't know if she's in cahoots with that old fox Zhou.
This law firm holds special significance for him; he must protect it.
Nanxia laughed when she heard his warning—this is his excuse for stealing my clients? He doesn't want me to be powerful in the law firm?
Okay, okay, it's not like he's the only one who knows how to steal.
She placed one finger on his belt, hooked it, and suddenly pulled him a few steps closer:
"It's impossible for me to be obedient to you, but what I'm going to do has absolutely nothing to do with you, so you'd better not interfere."
It has nothing to do with me? Isn't she in cahoots with Zhou Yuanming?
"What exactly is your purpose in coming to the law firm?"
