Meng Sheng laughed, but tears rolled down his cheeks uncontrollably.
Perhaps it was because he knew that this mediation letter representing the end of the marriage was not easy to come by.
Or maybe the kind of relaxation that I haven't felt in a long time has returned.
Or maybe I'm using these two lines of tears to mourn the self who once failed to recognize the right person and wasted his whole life.
She met Pei Sui's gaze and said sincerely, "Thank you, Lawyer Pei. Thank you very much for your hard work during this period."
Pei Sui pursed his lips, his eyes fixed on the tear marks on her face.
After a long while, when Meng Sheng felt a little embarrassed, he suddenly asked, "Do these tears... represent happiness or sadness?"
Meng Sheng was stunned for a moment, raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and opened his mouth, "All of them."
Pei Sui nodded slightly.
After a moment's silence, he half-closed his eyelids, his deep grey-black pupils filled with an unbreakable concentration.
He slowly opened his lips, "If you are sad, I can lend you my money to heal your wounds. Would you consider it?"
A gust of warm afternoon breeze blew away the clearness and indifference in his low, magnetic voice.
Meng Sheng was startled, and the light in his almond-shaped eyes trembled slightly.
Lend her your money to heal your wounds?
These words were like a red-hot iron, pressing unexpectedly on her most fragile nerve.
In an instant, her ears began to buzz, as if someone was striking a heavy bronze bell in her head.
She looked at the handsome man in front of her, with a refined and elegant temperament, for a long while before she murmured in disbelief, "What...what?"
Pei Sui knew that she understood.
But things like this need to be made clear.
He thought for a moment and said, "I'm serious. You can think about it."
Meng Sheng looked shocked and bewildered.
When did he...
impossible!
How could...
She opened her mouth to ask something, but before she could say anything, a familiar male voice came from not far away, "Shengsheng!"
She was slightly startled, frowned subconsciously, and slowly moved her eyes away from Pei Sui's face.
My thoughts were interrupted and I looked back at the figure running towards me from a distance.
As he recalled, Shang Boyu had run towards him without hesitation many times.
It's just... too long.
It was so long that the young man's figure had become blurred beyond recognition.
Now, just by shaking my head gently, I can completely dispel that memory.
Shang Boyu's breathing was a little unstable, and he stopped in front of her.
He looked at her lovingly, "You said we should part ways amicably. Can we... have a meal together? Just as a way to put an end to this...?"
The last period?
No need.
Besides...
Meng Sheng slowly raised the hand holding the mediation document, "This mediation document is our final period. Shang Boyu, please don't disturb my life anymore.
We are both doing well and we owe nothing to each other. "
Shang Boyu listened to her resolute words and anxiously grabbed her hand, "Shengsheng, we can start over again..."
Meng Sheng's pupils widened a little bit, and he said sarcastically, "How dare you say that we can start over? You merchants have made enough jokes, so stop saying these hilarious things."
She shook off Shang Boyu's hand and turned away.
"Shengsheng!"
Shang Boyu was about to catch up when a tall figure suddenly blocked his way.
A cold and clear voice was carried into his ears by the wind. "The Public Security Administration Punishment Law stipulates that repeated harassment, pestering, and disturbances may result in detention for five to ten days and a fine.
According to the criminal law, those who create disturbances, chase and intercept, or coerce others by force shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years, criminal detention, or control.
If the circumstances are serious, the offender shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years. "
Shang Boyu's expression froze, and he looked at the man in front of him sinisterly, "What do you mean?"
Pei Sui's eyes met his and he said calmly, "It is the social responsibility of every lawyer to educate citizens about the law."
Legal education?
Oh, how can this be called legal education?
It's clearly a warning!
Warn him not to harass Meng Sheng anymore.
Shang Boyu clenched his fists. If he hadn’t had a bit of rationality left, he might have punched Pei Sui in the face.
He sneered and asked through gritted teeth, "This is between Meng Sheng and me. What qualifications do you have to interfere? Just because you are her attorney?"
Pei Sui looked at him coldly and said simply, "Friend...pursuer."
Just five words represent his position.
He is not only her attorney, but also her friend and suitor.
Shang Boyu's expression froze for a moment, then turned ferocious, with anger filling his voice.
"Are you finally willing to admit that you like Shengsheng?
Oh, don't dream! Shengsheng and I have been together for more than six years.
She wants to divorce me because she is angry with me now. When she is no longer angry, she will come back. How can it be your turn?!"
Pei Sui believes that all the harsh words in the world come from bluffing and lack of self-confidence.
In all his years in the legal field, he had heard countless harsh words.
Therefore, he didn't even pay attention to Shang Boyu's words.
He just said calmly, "I have never denied it."
After saying that, he turned and left.
It is in the direction where Meng Sheng left.
Shang Boyu stood where he was, watching the handsome figure slowly walk away through the lenses.
It felt like there was a ball of resentment stuck in my chest, but I couldn't vent it out. In the end, I could only hold it in until my face turned red.
Blue veins also appeared faintly on the back of his hands and forehead.
The afternoon wind was clearly warm, but he felt an inexplicable chill on his back.
He understood that Pei Sui's words "never denied it" were a response to his question "You finally admit that you like Meng Sheng."
It seems difficult to get a taxi near the court at this time.
Meng Sheng came here this morning in Pei Sui's car.
Now she frowned as she watched the header on her phone screen spinning in circles, displaying the words "Looking for nearby vehicles."
Suddenly, a black Bentley stopped in front of her, the window rolled down, revealing a face full of cold and three-dimensional features.
The man twitched his lips lightly, "Get in the car."
When Meng Sheng saw him, he suddenly remembered what he had said before, "Would you consider lending it to you to heal your wounds?"
She pursed her lips.
We can't deliberately distance ourselves from him just because of what he said.
The divorce case has just been concluded, and if you become estranged like this, it would seem like you are destroying your bridges after crossing them and abandoning the donkey after it has served its purpose.
Not suitable.
She lowered her eyes and glanced at the taxi driver who was still spinning in circles. She simply clicked to cancel the taxi call, walked over, opened the door and got in.
