When Pei Sui heard this, the thought that suddenly popped up in his mind when he saw the keychain that day emerged.
There is no logic and it makes no sense.
But he just inexplicably felt that this rabbit looked very much like Meng Sheng.
I didn’t think much about it at the time and just felt that I should buy it back because Meng Sheng would like it.
He thought about it and said, "It suits you very well."
"Suitable?"
It was the first time she heard that a keychain was suitable for a person.
Pei Sui nodded, "Yeah."
Now comparing them like this, he felt that she seemed more like the fat white rabbit.
This feeling is quite inexplicable.
Not hearing any other explanation from him, Meng Sheng was speechless.
All right.
However, since this keychain represents the blessing of peace, she has no reason to refuse.
She smiled, her eyebrows curved unconsciously, and said softly, "Thank you."
Pei Sui pointed to the potted plant in his hand and said, "Do you need me to bring it in for you?"
Meng Sheng was thinking about the questions he wanted to ask, and it seemed inappropriate to leave the person outside to talk.
Then he smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."
After saying that, he stepped aside to let him in, then closed the door.
Pei Sui walked in readily.
Walking into the living room, Meng Sheng turned around and asked, "Is black coffee okay?"
Pei Sui walked to the low table next to the French window, paused as he was about to bend down, and turned back to say, "Let's have tea."
Meng Sheng was stunned. Could it be that he felt that the black coffee here tasted bad?
But she didn't ask. She nodded, went to the kitchen to make two cups of tea, and brought back a plate of cut fruit.
Six pots of azaleas have been placed on the low platform.
The four pots that were just put there are blooming very elegantly, while the other two pots have only a few very small flower buds, which are light green in color.
Pei Sui watered them with the watering can beside him, then sat down on the sofa and took a sip of tea.
Meng Sheng asked straight to the point, "Any progress on the case with Ning Weiwei?"
Pei Sui raised his eyes to look at her, "Regarding the unjust enrichment dispute case, the court should notify you of the time for the mediation session in the next few days. I will let you know the specific time in time.
However, the case of Yueqifang Beauty Salon organizing malicious prostitution will go to court on the 9th of next month. "
The first trial of this case was supposed to have taken place years ago, but because it involved a case of organized prostitution decades ago, the judicial procedure was adjusted.
He took another sip of tea and said, “This matter is a bit complicated now. There are as many as fifty or sixty people involved, maybe even more.
It depends on the arguments of the prosecution, defense and judge. There is a high probability that no verdict will be announced in the first instance."
Ever since Yu Qionghua went to jail, she has basically stopped paying attention to this case.
I only heard Pei Sui talk about it occasionally.
But since Yu Qionghua’s previous organization is implicated, the punishment will probably be increased.
There was no harm in it for her.
Meng Sheng nodded gently, "Okay, I understand."
"Do you want to go to the court on the day of the trial?"
"No."
That day in the police station's holding cell was her final farewell to her.
There is no need to attend the class again.
Yu Qionghua has gotten the retribution she deserves.
That's enough.
She brought the topic back to the lawsuit with Ning Weiwei, "Does Shang Boyu need to appear in the mediation court?"
"Need not."
Pei Sui put down his teacup and replied seriously, "This case is a dispute between the original wife and the mistress. The ex-husband is not a related party. The current evidence is sufficient to support the claim for return of the property."
He paused, then said, "However, the money has been recovered because it belongs to you and Shang Boyu's joint property.
Therefore, the court will most likely redistribute the property. But since he is the party at fault, the distribution will naturally favor you, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
Meng Sheng pursed his lips.
To her, redistributing the money with Shang Boyu was not that important.
What’s important is that she wants Ning Weiwei to experience the pain of having nothing.
Those things didn't originally belong to Ning Weiwei, she stole them from her.
Therefore, it is understandable to ask her to return it.
"Okay, I understand."
After she agreed, they both picked up their teacups and took a sip of tea. Just as the awkwardness was about to spread, Meng Sheng remembered something again.
"By the way, I have an IOU written by Ning Weiwei."
"IOU?" Pei Sui frowned slightly. "How much is the IOU?"
"Three hundred thousand." Meng Sheng said, "There were so many things to do that I almost forgot about it. Wait a moment, I'll go find the IOU."
Pei Sui nodded, the texture of his voice was still clear and indifferent, but if you smelled it carefully, you could feel that he had added a touch of gentleness that he never had in normal times.
"Well, don't worry, take your time to look for it."
Meng Sheng's mind was now entirely on the IOU, and he didn't try to catch any clues.
She went to the study and rummaged through the pile of books that had not yet been sorted out.
After about five or six minutes, he finally found a slightly yellowed piece of paper.
It looks quite old.
Pei Sui took it and took a look.
It reads "Ning Weiwei borrows 300,000 yuan from Meng Sheng" and below it is Ning Weiwei's signature and date, as well as a red fingerprint.
Counting the time, it has been almost four years.
Meng Sheng explained, "This is the IOU Ning Weiwei wrote to me when she borrowed money from me to buy an apartment four years ago."
The relationship between the two was very good at the beginning, and three hundred thousand was nothing to her.
She knew that Ning Weiwei really wanted to have a house of her own in Beijing and wanted to gain a firm foothold in Beijing.
When Ning Weiwei asked her to borrow money, she didn't hesitate.
As for the IOU, Ning Weiwei wrote it in front of her to show her sincerity.
At that time, she was righteous and did not want the IOU, thinking that it would be too strange to accept it.
But Ning Weiwei insisted, saying that brothers should settle accounts clearly.
Thinking about it now, what Ning Weiwei said was right.
Over the years, this IOU has been kept inside the book "Sophie's World" that I read in college.
Just a few months ago, after she learned of Ning Weiwei's hypocrisy, she went to check the IOU for the first time in four years.
Pei Sui answered her slowly, "Since the IOU was written by her, you can ask her to return the money. The protection period of the IOU is up to 20 years.
The creditor's first claim is made on the day the written demand notice is sent, and the three-year statute of limitations begins the day after the grace period expires. When are you going to collect from her?"
After hearing what he said, Meng Sheng felt a little relieved. After thinking for a while, she said, "Let's put things aside. Let's get back the things Shang Boyu gave her first."
