"This is a case that needs your attention. Take a look."
Xiao Chen handed over a file bag. Ye Xinning opened it and looked at it. It was about a case involving an elderly man who was hit by a motorcycle while driving a tricycle on the road.
The person involved is Grandma Yang. At the time of the accident, because the motorcyclist did not have enough money, Grandma Yang negotiated with the motorcyclist for compensation of 10,000 yuan, but no agreement was signed or any proof was obtained. Later, the elderly woman claimed that she had accidentally fallen and injured herself, and went to the insurance company to claim compensation, which involved the illegal act of insurance fraud.
Afterwards, the motorcyclist who hit Grandma Yang did not pay any compensation.
It wasn't until this year, when Grandma Yang went to the hospital for a checkup, that she discovered the bones in her hand that had been injured in the accident were severely deformed and required immediate surgery, which would cost as much as 500,000 yuan.
Grandma Yang deeply regrets her actions, but her insurance fraud has constituted a crime. Regarding whether she should receive compensation from the motorcycle owner, Grandma Yang's daughter has decided to appeal and recover the compensation her mother is entitled to.
Therefore, they found their law firm.
After reviewing all the materials, Ye Xinning gained a general understanding.
"So, should we answer?" Xiao Chen asked her.
Ye Xinning naturally had no reason to refuse, and she nodded with a smile, "No problem, I'll do it."
Xiao Chen curled his lips and spoke again, "Don't you want to ask me why I let you take this case?"
Ye Xinning clasped his hands together, leaned back in his chair, and casually asked, "Lawyer fees are very low?"
Xiao Chen gave her a knowing look. "Grandma Yang's daughter is an ordinary worker. Her family doesn't have much savings. They've already spent a lot to repay Grandma Yang's insurance fraud. The amount they can offer to our law firm this time is all they have."
"But why was it given to me?"
You know this better than anyone else.
Ye Xinning smiled faintly, "It seems so."
Throughout the entire law firm, she was the least concerned about fees and also the one who offered the most free legal advice.
She handles a large number of cases, but her fees are always the lowest in the law firm. Most of her clients are people with financial difficulties or other difficulties.
At the very beginning, Xiao Chen talked to her about this matter, and her answer was...
—I just want to do something I want to do. If you feel this isn't right, I can switch law firms.
At that time, her gaze was cool, her words were calm, and she seemed like such a cold person, but what she did was not something an ordinary lawyer could do.
However, the very few exceptional cases that Ye Xinning handled brought her considerable income for the law firm, which could be considered a complementary arrangement.
"Then I'll take it. Anyway, I don't have many cases on my hands lately."
Xiao Chen knew she wouldn't refuse, which was entirely expected.
Xiao Chen had known for a long time that Ye Xinning was kind.
Similarly, he knew that with Ye Xinning's abilities, starting her own firm was not a problem at all. She chose to come to the law firm simply because she wanted to do something of her own.
"Okay, I'll give you the detailed information later. Take a look at this first, and then meet with Grandma Yang's daughter as soon as possible."
"good."
...
Ye Xinning walked out of Xiao Chen's office, and Ye Xiaoxiao put her arm around her and walked back to the office together. Seeing that she was holding a new case, Ye Xiaoxiao was a little surprised, "Director Xiao gave you a new case again?"
"Yes, here's some work." Ye Xinning handed the document in his hand to Ye Xiaoxiao.
"I've discovered a problem," Ye Xiaoxiao said.
Ye Xinning looked up at her. "What?"
"Director Xiao will give you many of the more difficult and complicated cases in the law firm."
Ye Xinning tilted her head, her gaze extremely indifferent. "Is that so?"
"Of course, you don't know, Xia Wan's eyes almost popped out when she saw you go to Director Xiao's office."
Ye Xinning still smiled, but didn't say anything.
Seeing her calm reaction, Ye Xiaoxiao expressed her doubts again, "Speaking of which, does Director Xiao really not like you? I feel like these behaviors are not simple."
Ye Xinning lowered her head helplessly and sat back down in her seat. "I really don't know what you're thinking about every day. I've told you before that Xiao Chen and I are just ordinary superiors and subordinates. At most, we can only be considered friends who get along well. There are no complicated feelings like you described."
Ye Xiaoxiao rested her chin on her hand, thought for a moment, and said in a serious tone, "But that's true. You and your brother-in-law are so close. Even if Director Xiao likes you, it doesn't matter. You and your brother-in-law are a match made in heaven."
In the past, Ye Xinning would only smile and brush off the mention of Shen Lin, but recently her relationship with Shen Lin had improved. She narrowed her eyes and asked Ye Xiaoxiao, "In your opinion, do we make a good match?"
"Of course you're a perfect match. You're a handsome couple with similar family backgrounds. Whether it's status or ability, you two are a perfect match."
"Really? Isn't the story of a domineering CEO and a naive girl more appealing? How about this line, that's how you arouse a man's protective instincts?" For example, she thought Shen Lin and Jiang An perfectly embodied that kind of persona before.
It is said that Jiang An's family was of average means, and it is unknown which part of Nancheng he was from. He only came to Nancheng and met Shen Lin after he got into university.
To be honest, Ye Xinning had always been puzzled as to why Shen Lin, the pride of heaven, would get to know Jiang An. Could it be that a girl was accidentally hit by a basketball on the basketball court and the campus heartthrob rushed over to pick up the ball, and from then on, their love was like a thunderbolt and a raging storm?
Ye Xinning unconsciously thought about it and, for some reason, found it somewhat amusing.
Ye Xiaoxiao exclaimed in surprise, "Sister, you actually know these things?"
Ye Xinning gave her a helpless look. "I just don't like talking about these things, but that doesn't mean I live in ancient times, okay?"
Ye Xiaoxiao touched her head. "That's true, but what you just said is outdated. Now everyone likes strong-strong alliances. The kind of domineering CEO falling in love with Cinderella might still exist, but I still prefer your relationship with your brother-in-law."
Ye Xinning fiddled with the bracelet on her wrist, saying casually, "Okay, I understand. You can go and organize the documents now."
If we keep going, I don't know where we'll end up.
...
After get off work that evening, Shen Lin came to pick her up.
Ye Xiaoxiao went out with her, and when she saw the familiar car at the door, Ye Xiaoxiao joked, "It seems that for a long time to come, I won't have the chance to go home with my sister."
“The Shen family’s place is not in the same direction as yours. Before Shen Lin came to pick me up, we went back to our own homes.” Ye Xinning bluntly exposed her.
Ye Xiaoxiao wailed as she grabbed her hand, "Sure enough, a woman who's caught up in sweetness isn't so simple."
Ye Xinning was already used to her quirky and mischievous nature.
Just as she was about to speak, the car door in front of her was opened from the inside. The next second, Shen Lin, wearing a light blue coat and with one hand in his pocket, got out of the driver's seat and walked straight towards her and Ye Xiaoxiao...
