How wonderful it would be if I could just observe him without saying a word.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as she wished.
"The documents are on the table. Take a look at them first, then analyze the key points. We'll prepare for the court hearing in a few days."
Clearly, his company has a professional legal team and a top-notch lawyer friend, so even though this case is tricky, it's no problem at all.
But it was decided that the task would be assigned to me, so it wasn't really a punishment.
For Jiang Yilai, the torment was having to face his cold words and sarcastic remarks.
"Then I'll take it back and analyze it before giving it to you."
"Your unprofessional attitude makes me doubt whether you can do this job well."
No professional could understand such talk, so Jiang Yilai grabbed the documents from his hand and began to analyze them seriously.
She's definitely different now; she can remain calm when faced with criticism, and there's no sign of backing down in her eyes.
Jiang Yilai took notes of the key points with a pen, and then took out her laptop to list out all the new ideas.
After finishing all that, I looked up and found Fu Nanxiao sitting next to me, looking at me with a strange expression.
A sudden panic gripped me, and I quickly turned the computer screen towards him.
"Please check if there's anything else that needs to be added."
Fu Nanxiao shifted his gaze to the computer screen, but the words he uttered had nothing to do with the case.
"You and Li Luyao aren't together?"
"Huh? No."
This topic shouldn't have been brought up, but Jiang Yilai answered truthfully anyway.
"Back then, things had progressed to such a point, why didn't we stay together?"
"...We are incompatible."
Fu Nanxiao didn't pursue the topic further. Instead, he reached over, picked up the laptop she had placed on her lap, and stood up.
Before Jiang Yilai could recover, she suddenly remembered something and reached out to snatch the computer back.
Because I had been sitting in one position for too long, my legs felt a little weak when I stood up. Since I was in a forward-leaning position, I lost my balance and fell towards him.
Fu Nanxiao subconsciously lifted the computer, and Jiang Yilai fell into his arms.
The two slumped back onto the sofa, Jiang Yilai nestled in his arms, somewhat at a loss.
What... what kind of sudden incident is this? It's so embarrassing!
As if springs were installed in her body, Jiang Yilai immediately jumped off Fu Nanxiao and took two steps back.
"Excuse me, I lost my balance just now."
Compared to that, Fu Nanxiao was more curious about why she came to steal the computer.
She just wanted me to check the documents I had prepared, so why did she snatch the computer away again?
"Is there something on the computer that you don't want me to see?"
Yes, there is!
The computer screen displays a photo of my two children, because I miss them every day at work, and this is the quickest way to see them.
Moreover, seeing the child is also her motivation for work, something she doesn't want Fu Nanxiao to know.
But now that the computer is in his hands, what can he say to get it back?
"If you don't tell me, I'm going to start the inspection."
As he spoke, Fu Nanxiao placed his finger on the control panel, prompting Jiang Yilai to speak up hastily.
"Don't touch it. I have my own private information on my computer, so please don't look through it."
"What privacy can't be shared with others?"
“Mr. Fu, we are already divorced. You have no right to know or interfere with my private affairs.”
Fu Nanxiao chuckled, but the smile was not only devoid of warmth, it was as chilling as ice shards.
He threw the computer aside; luckily it was on the sofa, otherwise it might have broken. This person's temper is getting more and more volatile.
