Ye Xinning paused slightly at this point before speaking again, her tone even more subdued than before.
"After all, a company's financial deficit is no small matter. If it's not made public, the situation can be maintained and there's still a chance to turn things around. But if it's made public, the only option will probably be to declare bankruptcy. At that point, your client will be in debt, and we will definitely gain custody of the child, both in terms of the child's upbringing and our ability to raise the child."
After Ye Xinning finished speaking, he stood up with Ye Xiaoxiao.
"We have made our terms very clear. As for whether to go to court or what, that's up to you. Please tell your client, Attorney Shu, that they should think it over carefully."
Shu Chaoyu looked extremely pale, clutching the document tightly.
Having achieved her goal of meeting, Ye Xinning didn't linger. She called Ye Xiaoxiao, and the two left together. Once outside, Ye Xiaoxiao gave Ye Xinning a thumbs-up admiringly, "Sister, you're so cool!"
Ye Xinning smiled faintly, "Is it domineering? It's just that we made some conditions based on our advantages."
"Before I came, Mr. Xiao told me that this case was a bit tricky, but just now, seeing how well my sister was strategizing, it didn't seem tricky at all."
Ye Xinning lowered her head and said calmly, "It was originally a bit tricky, but I have been studying the situation of Ms. He's husband's company recently and found some problems in the finances. If I continue to investigate, I will find these things. Once these things are brought to court, Ms. He's husband will have an even more difficult time. I believe that under these circumstances, he will take the initiative to give up custody after weighing the options."
Ye Xiaoxiao exclaimed in amazement, "Sis, you can even spot financial problems in other people?"
When this was mentioned, Ye Xinning looked into the distance and said in a low voice, "I have to thank my grandfather for teaching me those things."
"Oh right, how could I forget? My sister was initially groomed by my great-grandfather to be the heir to the Ye Group. She's very capable in that area. Sigh, if my sister had inherited the Ye Group, the legal profession would have lost a great lawyer."
Ye Xinning chuckled softly, "It's not as exaggerated as you make it out to be."
If she were truly that outstanding, how could she not even get a divorce? How could she let her life become such a mess?
However, she sometimes wonders if, instead of choosing law, she had followed her grandfather's arrangement and studied management, would all those things have been different?
Thinking of the past, Ye Xinning's eyes darkened.
Ye Xiaoxiao is outgoing and talkative. Seeing that she was silent, she started a conversation with her.
"By the way, sis, I haven't seen brother-in-law yet since I came back. When are we going to invite him out? I'll treat you to a meal."
Mentioning Shen Lin, Ye Xinning lowered her eyes, about to say that Shen Lin was too busy and that they could talk about dinner later.
Before he could even speak, he heard a familiar voice coming from not far away.
"Sister-in-law?"
Ye Xinning turned her head to look over. Not far away, the brothers Shen Lin and Shen Ting were standing together. Shen Lin's face was cold and stern, which was completely different from Shen Ting's enthusiasm.
Ye Xinning shifted her gaze from Shen Lin to Shen Ting.
"Hmm." After saying that, she felt a little indifferent, so she added, "You guys came here to eat?"
Shen Ting nodded. "Sister-in-law, have you eaten?"
"I didn't eat."
"have eaten."
Two voices rang out at the same time: the first was Ye Xiaoxiao, and the second was Ye Xinning.
When Shen Ting asked, Ye Xinning knew that if she said she hadn't eaten, she would definitely have to eat with them.
What happened last night left an indelible mark on her heart. Even if she couldn't get a divorce, she didn't want to sit at the same table with Shen Lin for the time being.
I had only intended to tell a trivial lie, but I never expected Ye Xiaoxiao to speak up.
At that moment, Ye Xinning clearly understood what it meant to...
Society died.
She didn't know what to say, so she simply lowered her head.
Shen Ting was still very enthusiastic, "If you haven't eaten, let's eat together, sister-in-law."
If she were to refuse now, wouldn't it make her seem ungrateful?
The four of them went out to eat together, and with Shen Ting and Ye Xiaoxiao there, the atmosphere wasn't too awkward.
Ye Xiaoxiao, in particular, was incredibly enthusiastic when she saw Shen Lin now that she hadn't seen him when she left Nancheng last time.
"Brother-in-law, it's been so long! How are you and my sister doing?"
Shen Lin's gaze fell on Ye Xinning. When they entered and chose seats, she did not hesitate to sit next to Ye Xiaoxiao, keeping her distance from him. This distant attitude was obvious.
"Shouldn't you ask your sister that?"
Shen Lin, seemingly nonchalant, then steered the conversation back to Ye Xinning.
Ye Xinning didn't know what to say, but thinking about what Shen Lin had said, she felt that if she didn't speak up now, it would seem a bit deliberate.
"We're doing fine." She didn't intend to say more; this one sentence was already an answer.
Ye Xiaoxiao, always carefree and oblivious, didn't notice anything amiss. Hearing Ye Xinning's words, she teased, "My dad always says that my sister married the best man. They're a perfect match, both talented and beautiful, and their marriage is truly enviable."
envious?
Ye Xinning subconsciously shifted her gaze to Shen Lin, but Shen Lin was also looking at her. Their eyes met, and Ye Xinning couldn't quite describe the feeling.
Shen Lin's gaze was deep enough that she couldn't discern anything else from his expression, but what she could sense was his indifference and apathy.
If she hadn't experienced some good things, she wouldn't care what Shen Lin's attitude was now.
However, Shen Lin had genuinely been very good to her in the past.
Before she lost her memory in the car accident, Shen Lin was really good to her. When she didn't want to go home, he stayed by her side without saying a word. For her sake, he worked odd jobs, took night shifts, and did some very hard work. The bracelet on her wrist that she cherished so much was earned by Shen Lin through his own labor.
He also said at the time that he would stay by her side every year and buy her lots and lots of gifts.
At the time, she was experiencing the pain and despair brought to her by her family. Shen Lin was like a ray of light shining into her life. From then on, she could never let go of the pain or forget it.
Ye Xinning was lost in her own thoughts and didn't notice that Shen Lin's face had already darkened completely because of her words.
He stood up, came to her, and took her hand directly.
Ye Xinning snapped out of his daze, only to find himself pulled up from his seat.
"Why are you sinking down?"
