Seeing the waiter's resolute tone, Zhou Chunhua took out her payment code to pay the bill.
She was told that Gu Yao had already paid for her table's bill.
Zhou Chunhua returned to her seat, thanked him, and transferred 521 yuan directly to Gu Yao.
But... the number 521 looks increasingly strange on the phone screen.
What's even stranger is that Gu Yao, who was usually extremely polite, accepted the payment without a second thought.
The next second, a heart appeared on the screen.
She looked at Gu Yao.
"Sorry, I meant to politely reply with flowers, but I ordered the wrong thing. Thank you for treating me to dinner."
"Attorney Gu, you're too kind." Zhou Chunhua smiled awkwardly. "Didn't we say we were here to collect evidence? It's getting late, let's go."
She put on her coat, grabbed her bag, stood up, and walked ahead of Gu Yao.
However, a murmur came from outside the screen.
She walked around the screen and saw a middle-aged man in a suit leading three burly male waiters carrying a bouquet of roses that was about 1.5 meters in diameter.
Looking at this romantic scene, Zhou Chunhua couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Her love story with Liao Nanxing is as simple as a blank sheet of paper.
Liao Nanxing heroically rescued her from being followed after she finished her evening self-study session.
Later, like most people, they went to the movies, went shopping, and visited parks.
During this period, we exchange small gifts.
Until the day Liao Nanxing was about to leave Lincheng after graduating with her master's degree, he took a ten-yuan rose and stood in the pouring rain at her doorstep all night to propose to her.
As Zhou Chunhua took a few steps back with a wry smile and envy, the four people actually stopped in front of her.
"Hello ladies, I am the lobby manager of Cuiyuan Restaurant. Congratulations on being our restaurant's lucky stars today. This is a gift for you both—999 roses."
Zhou Chunhua glanced at the lobby manager, then at the enormous bouquet of flowers that was impossible to hold in her hands.
A round of applause erupted from the crowd.
Someone even started chanting, "Get together!"
Zhou Chunhua's face immediately turned red all the way to her neck.
She wasn't embarrassed, but rather afraid that Gu Yao would feel awkward.
She quickly whispered, "This flower is too big; I can't take it with me. Can I get cash instead?"
The lobby staff, who had been smiling professionally, suddenly couldn't smile anymore.
"Cash...discount..." The lobby manager's eyes darted around uncertainly.
Zhou Chunhua noticed that the lobby manager seemed to be glancing behind her, intentionally or unintentionally.
Just as she was about to turn her head to see who he was looking at, the lobby manager immediately rejected her idea.
"Madam, I'm so sorry. Would you like us to take it to your car?"
Zhou Chunhua gave an awkward smile.
Where did she get that car?
After so many years of marriage, she doesn't even have a driver's license, let alone a car.
Just as he was about to say no, Gu Yao suddenly replied, "Send it to basement level three."
As he spoke, he handed the car keys to the lobby manager.
So the waiter took the car keys and the flowers and headed towards the elevator.
Just as she was trying to persuade Gu Yao not to go through all that trouble, Gu Yao gave her a look and then walked over to the lobby manager.
It's unclear what Gu Yao said to him, but the lobby manager appeared very humble throughout the conversation.
In just three to five minutes, the lobby manager took them to the monitoring room.
Gu Yao took out a USB drive from his briefcase, clearly indicating that he had come prepared.
With the help of professionals, she soon saw countless videos of Su Mu and Liao Nanxing having intimate meals.
The time span is as long as three years.
There were even passionate scenes of the two kissing in front of the restroom, in the elevator, and in the parking lot.
After taking a deep breath, Zhou Chunhua quietly retreated outside.
At this moment, she was no longer sad; instead, she was glad that she hadn't had any close contact with Liao Nanxing over the years.
Otherwise, after seeing the video of that parking lot, she would definitely have thrown up everywhere.
Gu Yao came out shortly after.
The lobby manager escorted them into the elevator.
"Attorney Gu, how did you know... they had contact here?" Zhou Chunhua asked curiously.
Gu Yao straightened his tie: "I've run into them here a few times. I came here today partly because it was on my way, and partly to try my luck. Unexpectedly, we were quite lucky."
"So... with the evidence we have now, what are our chances of winning?"
"It's not enough yet, but don't worry, I'll do my best."
"So, do we need to come out again to collect evidence tomorrow?" she asked.
Gu Yao shook his head: "Leave the rest to me. You can rest for a few days. You'll be very busy in court."
Zhou Chunhua exhaled a deep breath and asked what was on her mind.
“Attorney Gu, tell me the truth, what are the chances that Liao Nanxing will leave with nothing?”
For Nini's sake, for her own sake, and for Nana's sake, she cannot lose.
As the elevator doors opened with a ding, Gu Yao stepped out and said, "I will risk everything."
On the way back, Zhou Chunhua looked out the window at the night view and fell into deep thought.
It seems that relying solely on Gu Yao to seek justice for her may not be a viable option.
So... she wants to get justice for herself in her own way.
...
When she got home, Juliana looked at the giant bouquet in front of the French windows and exclaimed with envy.
This is the 17th time she has circled the rose.
"Nana, can you stop spinning? I'm dizzy."
"Huahua, is this really not a gift from Gu Yao?"
