Half an hour later.
Huang Bo got up, put on his clothes, walked to the window, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.
"You've done everything you needed to do, now you can finally get down to business, right?"
A slightly melancholic voice came from behind.
A rustling sound of clothes being put on followed Yao Xishui, who came to Huang Bo's side wearing a bathrobe. She looked up at the window and said, "You came to see me, it's definitely not just for..."
"Cough, cough... Do you really think I'm that bad?"
Huang Bo hurriedly said, "I came to find you because I really missed you."
"Enough!"
Yao Xishui pinched Huang Bo hard and said angrily, "If you don't tell the truth, I'm leaving. Don't regret it then."
In his haste, Huang Bo grabbed Yao Xishui and said, "I do have something I'd like to ask you for help with."
"Hmph, I knew you'd come looking for me; it couldn't be that simple!"
Yao Xishui grew even more furious and tightened her grip on Huang Bo's arm.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, be gentle."
Huang Bo pleaded for mercy repeatedly, but didn't forget to get down to business, "I came to Linjiang City specifically to find you, but I ran into a friend who asked me to do him a favor, so..."
"After going around in circles, you still wanted my help."
A hint of resentment rose in Yao Xishui's eyes, "Do you only come to me when you need to use me?"
"Of course not!"
Huang Bo quickly denied it, saying, "I will marry you when I have achieved success in my career."
"Really?" A look of longing rose in Yao Xishui's beautiful eyes.
"certainly!"
Huang Bo nodded emphatically, "If you weren't married by then, I would have made you my bride."
...
Law firm.
"Miss, are you facing any legal disputes?"
Seeing someone enter the lobby, Xiao Yin immediately went up to them with a professional smile, "May I ask which lawyer you would like to consult?"
"Of course, it's Attorney Yao!"
The newcomer was a woman, also dressed in a women's suit, but with a stubborn expression. "Attorney Yao is the best lawyer here, isn't she?"
"Uh... what you're saying is actually true!"
Xiao Yin did not deny it, saying, "If we're just talking about reputation, Attorney Yao is indeed the most famous here."
For those in the industry, a lawyer's strength is not always directly proportional to their reputation.
Reputation is something that sometimes depends on luck, and sometimes on how you cultivate it.
In their law firm, there are many experienced lawyers who are even more outstanding than Yao Xishui; it's just that outsiders don't understand this.
However, she didn't care about that.
What she really cared about was which lawyer her clients liked, and she would flatter that lawyer accordingly.
As long as it brings business to their law firm, anything is negotiable.
"The person our boss is looking for has to be the best!"
The woman said arrogantly, "Since Attorney Yao is the best here, I'll choose her no matter the cost."
"What legal dispute does Miss want to resolve?" Xiao Yin asked again.
"It wasn't me, it was our boss!"
The woman was getting impatient. "It's urgent. Take me to see Attorney Yao right away."
"I'm sorry, Attorney Yao is out on business, she's not here." Xiao Yin shook her head apologetically.
"Not here?"
The woman frowned. "Where did she go? Can we find her right away?"
"this……"
Xiao Yin looked troubled.
"The price is negotiable!"
The woman took out a large wad of cash from her bag. "This is a deposit of 20,000 yuan. As long as you find Attorney Yao immediately, we can discuss any amount of money you need after that!"
"Please wait a moment, Miss. We'll send someone out to bring Lawyer Yao back right away!"
Xiao Yin's attitude immediately became extremely polite, "By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet, Miss. Let me register it for you."
"My name is Zhang Lei, and I am the secretary of President Jiang Zhenghua."
"Okay, I'll register you right away. As soon as Attorney Yao gets back, I'll have her handle your case immediately."
"I want to personally connect with Attorney Yao!"
Zhang Lei insisted, "If she hasn't come back yet, I'll wait for her here."
"This... will work too!"
For such a generous client, Xiao Yin naturally had to take good care of them, inviting them to the rest area, personally brewing them a pot of tea, and showing them all sorts of concern and care, trying her best to make the client feel the most sincere sincerity and warmth.
After only half an hour, Yao Xishui returned.
"Attorney Yao, you're back!"
Xiao Yin immediately went to greet him, "A very important client wants to see you!"
"What kind of big client?" Yao Xishui raised an eyebrow.
Have you heard of Jiang Zhenghua?
Xiao Yin leaned close to Yao Xishui's ear and whispered, "He's one of the richest men in Linjiang City. This time, he's the one who wants you to take on his case."
"Oh? Jiang Zhenghua?"
Yao Xishui's lips curled into a sly smile. "Since they are a major client, they should definitely be given priority."
"Then I will bring Jiang Zhenghua's secretary to see you right away."
"good!"
With Yao Xishui's consent, Xiao Yin immediately brought Zhang Lei over.
"So you're Attorney Yao Xishui?" Zhang Lei's expression remained somewhat arrogant.
Normally, Yao Xishui would have definitely retorted on the spot.
But this time, she miraculously didn't get angry; she simply nodded and said, "That's me. Is there anything I can do to help you?"
Come with me!
Zhang Lei said in an unyielding tone, "My boss wants to see you."
