"Even if you could afford it, you wouldn't be able to find a place to hire him. Attorney Chen is abroad most of the year, and it's very difficult for people in China to contact him."
"......"
Chen Xingshen sat down next to Shen Ye, and the audience erupted in excitement. Shen Ye listened to the discussions, completely bewildered.
"Hello Mr. Lin, I am your defense lawyer, Chen Xingshen."
Chen Xingshen seemed to be very experienced; he answered all the questions asked by the other party fluently, and even left the other party speechless.
But the result was exactly as Shen Ye had predicted.
The judge sentenced Shen Ye to six months in prison for intentional injury.
Although he ultimately ended up in jail, without Chen Xingshen, he probably would have been sentenced to an even longer time.
After the court hearing, Shen Ye appealed, but the appeal was rejected.
Afterwards, Shen Ye was imprisoned.
At that time, a month had passed since the first trial ended.
Jiang Chen never came to see Shen Ye again, as if Shen Ye had never appeared in his life.
That night, he sat on his narrow bed, recalling the look in Jiang Chen's eyes when the first trial adjourned.
It's not all heartless; there's a bit of affection in it too, isn't there?
As he was thinking, the other people in the cell surrounded him after the lights were turned off and started beating him up.
After the beating, a man with a scar on his face said menacingly, "You guys, tell the newbies to behave. They've got special permission from above. Do whatever you want, just don't kill them."
Shen Ye felt a chill. Was it enough that he wasn't killed?
Lin Weihan, Lin Weihan, aren't you afraid of retribution for doing these things for someone who doesn't love you?
Shen Ye curled up into a ball and sneered, laughing until tears streamed down his face.
Stupid System: 'Do you want me to take care of them for you?'
You exchange skills for me, and I'll personally subdue them until they're completely obedient.
......
Spring came and autumn went, and before I knew it, six months of imprisonment had passed.
Shen Ye stood at the prison gate wearing a loose prison uniform. The dazzling sunlight shone on his face, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.
He closed his eyes, raised his face to feel the warmth of the sunlight, and suddenly heard a somewhat familiar male voice in his ear.
"Welcome out of prison."
I opened my eyes and saw a man in casual clothes leaning against the car, looking aloof.
It was Chen Xingshen.
A lawyer who appeared out of nowhere to help him actually came to pick him up when he was released from prison.
"Let's go, I'll take you home."
Home? Does he have a home in City A?
Chen Xingshen gentlemanly opened the passenger door, and Shen Ye got in directly.
As the car drove all the way to the underground parking lot of Jingyuan, Shen Ye finally realized that this was the home Chen Xingshen had mentioned.
The house was furnished exactly as it was before he went to prison. Even though he hadn't been back for six months, there wasn't a speck of dust on the furniture, as if someone regularly cleaned it. Even...
The kitchen looked like it had been used frequently.
Could it be Jiang Chen?
In Shen Ye's mind, only Jiang Chen could be thought of, because no one else had the key to this place.
"You can go take a shower and change your clothes first, then I'll take you to eat."
Shen Ye was like a robot; he did whatever others told him to do without resistance.
Perhaps the world is really small, or perhaps people destined to meet will meet no matter where they go.
For example, his relationship with Jiang Chen.
Upon arriving at the restaurant entrance, as soon as he got out of the car, he saw from afar that the emperor-like man was embracing Lin Weihan as they walked into the restaurant.
The two were like a golden couple, so dazzling that it was hard to look directly at them.
