Chapter 290: Perfect Back of the Head
Su Man choked.
Was she being fooled, or was she being fooled?
Xiao Beisheng didn't mean anything specifically, and Su Man almost confessed.
Xiao Beisheng ignored Su Man and called out to the others, "Where are you at? Let's continue or start a new round."
"Boss Xiao is here, let's reopen it."
Everyone started playing mahjong, and the tiles made crackling sounds.
Xiao Beisheng held his cigarette sideways, his eyes narrowed as he focused on the cards. No one at the table paid any attention to Su Man.
It seemed as if the conflict just now was resolved so easily.
It even seemed like Xiao Beisheng was helping Su Man out.
Suman: ...
The man who was playing billiards just now came over and asked Suman for the cue. Suman was annoyed and stuffed the cue back into the man's hand, then carried her bag and walked out.
After leaving the old house, Su Man kept thinking about what Xiao Beisheng had just said.
Could it be that Qiao Shiyan was really suspended?
Because he was facing such a dilemma, and this dilemma was caused by Su Man, Qiao Shiyan did not tell Su Man, but chose to bear it silently by himself. He would rather sit in a coffee shop all day and pretend that he was still at work.
Su Man really wanted to rush to Hongcheng Office immediately to ask what was going on.
But it was already very late today and the law firm had closed long ago. No matter how anxious Su Man was, she had to wait until tomorrow.
She returned home with a lot on her mind, and Qiao Shiyan was already asleep.
Gastroenteritis tortured him so badly that he could only eat light white porridge every day. He had a recurring fever in the first two days and even had difficulty going to the hospital.
Now, the fever has subsided, but there are still many physical sequelae.
Just getting up from the bed makes me cry out in pain.
He spent most of his time sleeping.
The doctor said that sleep and rest would help his body recover, so he naturally stayed in bed.
After a difficult night, Suman got up early.
She did not go to the law firm immediately, but made an appointment with the law firm first according to the "rules of the underworld".
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, she did not use her own name to make the reservation, but used Xiao Tian's name -
She talked about this with Xiao Tian.
Using Xiao Tian's name was Xiao Tian's own idea.
Xiao Tian also said that the other party’s senior leader would meet in person for Xiao Beisheng’s sake.
For the sake of convenience, Su Man did not refuse. This way, she could get a better understanding of the truth of the matter.
Xiao Tian's name really worked. When the other party heard it was Xiao Tian, he immediately said that the partner manager's schedule was a bit full, but he could ask about the partner's schedule.
Normally appointments are made at the lawyer level, so how can one go up and immediately make an appointment with a partner?
After hanging up the phone, Su Man waited quietly. Not long after, the other party called back and arranged a meeting time for Su Man at an earlier time.
When the appointment time came, Suman went out.
During this period, she also prepared some lines of speech to help her understand the problem.
Including whether the relationship between this partner and Qiao Shiyan is good or bad? Was Qiao Shiyan really suspended? What was the reason for the suspension?
If it was really because of the so-called scandal, Su Man wanted to find out indirectly whether the source of the scandal had been found and who the other party was.
On the way there, Su Man was repeating these questions silently in her mind.
As a result, halfway through the journey, a car suddenly appeared and cut in front of Suman's car, almost causing a car accident.
Su Man braked suddenly, and all the questions in her mind disappeared.
She was so angry that she got out of the car and wanted to ask what was going on on the other side.
At the same time, the opposite door opened.
A cheerful voice appeared before the people:
"Teacher Su!"
Xiao Tian got out of the car, with big wavy hair, wearing a pair of sunglasses that made her look very elegant, and a big red lip that didn't seem to match her age. She looked quite aura.
"You..." Su Man wanted to ask why it was her, but her womanly nature made her change the subject, "...her hair, I remember it was like this yesterday, right?"
"I just got a perm from Tony. How's it going? Cool, isn't it? It's so hard to get an appointment with Tony! If you like it, I'll make an appointment for you next time. I have their VIP Black Gold card, which is only valid if you spend a certain amount of money annually... No, why am I getting off track?"
Xiao Tian stamped her feet and brought the topic back to the topic.
"I got my hair permed just to go to the law firm with you today. I wanted to look more imposing and domineering!"
"You want to accompany me to the law firm?"
"Yeah! I want to go and see the fun... No, I want to support you."
Xiao Tian was serious, but her face was full of the truth of "I just want to watch the fun".
Su Man said: "It's already very troublesome for you to use your name, and I didn't expect you to accompany me..."
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Tian thought Su Man was going to refuse, so she immediately came over and hugged Su Man's arm, shaking it vigorously, "It's not a bother, not a bother at all, I'm not afraid of trouble, Teacher Su, please, please bother me!"
"What I mean is!" Su Man was almost dizzy and quickly stopped her, "It's good for you to go. After all, it's under your name, so it won't be easy to be exposed."
"Hehehe, I knew that Teacher Su would definitely let me go. After all, I got this cool perm. If I don't go, it would be all in vain!"
Xiao Tian said, pulling out another pair of sunglasses from some pocket inside her leather jacket. "Come, Teacher Su, these are for you. Mine is black, and yours is tea brown. We're sister styles. Let's slay together!"
Before Su Man took it, Xiao Tian put it on her.
Su Man was a little resistant, worried that it would be too conspicuous and she was afraid of being beaten.
The result was that she saw her own reflection in the rearview mirror. Not to mention, the sunglasses covered most of her face, so people who didn't know her couldn't recognize her at all.
"Very good, I am very satisfied." Su Man accepted the sunglasses.
The two of them arrived at Hongcheng Law Firm together. As soon as they announced Xiao Tian's name, the front desk clerk immediately and enthusiastically led Su Man and Xiao Tian to the meeting room inside.
"Our lawyer Cheng is meeting with a guest. Please wait in the office for a moment."
The receptionist poured tea for the two of them and then left.
The reception room and the conference room are separated by a glass wall.
The glass wall is frosted, and you can vaguely see the silhouette of the person next door, but the blinds are halfway down, so you can only see the silhouette.
Xiao Tian spun her cup around, staring at the silhouette and muttering, "Who is Lawyer Cheng meeting? The back of his head looks just like my cousin's. It's so rare to see a back of head as perfect as mine. Even the gel-held hair stands up in exactly the same direction and curve."
Coincidentally, not long after Xiao Tian finished speaking, the two people in the conference room stood up and went out.
When Lawyer Cheng wanted to see the guests off, he had to take them through the reception room where Xiao Tian and Su Man were.
The door of the reception room was not closed. When two people passed by, the "guest" glanced into the reception room and paused.
Xiao Tian just brought the cup to her mouth and wanted to take a sip of water, but after looking at the person at the door, her mouth suddenly closed - two tooth marks were left on the edge of the cup.
"Cousin?!?!" She was extremely surprised.
