Jiang Lezhen felt unlucky. She had wanted to marry into the Fu family to gain status through her son, but despite giving birth to a son, she still couldn't get into the family.
The Jiang family business suffered another setback, and she could only rely on her beauty to make a living in the entertainment industry.
After years of hard work, he managed to become a minor celebrity, but he still couldn't catch the eye of Old Master Fu.
"Back then, I was bewitched and wanted to please him to marry into the Fu family. I never expected him to target you."
"It's true that you were bewitched and wanted him to do something to me. It's also true that you went to complain even though you knew the Fu family didn't agree to me having the child. That's what you call ruthless."
A few words left her speechless, and Jiang Lezhen knew that today's negotiations were useless.
“It’s been years, and you still hold a grudge against me for this.”
"I don't hold a grudge. Look at how I've become a successful woman now; it's partly thanks to you. In fact, I should be thanking you."
"I...I must take my leave now. In short, I will absolutely not give up on this matter."
"See you in court."
Jiang Lezhen dared not look directly into her sharp eyes, grabbed her bag and quickly fled the scene.
What are we going to do now? We even tried to bribe them, but things seem to be even worse than before.
Jiang Yilai might even use this opportunity to settle personal scores.
The only person who can help her now is Fu Nanxiao. If he is willing to let his top lawyer friend step in, there is still a chance.
Standing on the balcony, Jiang Yilai watched Jiang Lezhen's retreating figure and felt a bad premonition welling up inside her.
She came here to protect Fu Qingyun, so naturally she would ask others for his help.
Jiang Yilai guessed correctly; Jiang Lezhen arrived at the Fu Group in the blink of an eye.
Unfortunately, she was stopped in the lobby. Even though she is somewhat famous now, it is not easy for her to see Fu Nanxiao.
Having no other choice, she dialed Qi Yuheng's number and told him that she had something very important to tell them.
Qi Yuheng was right next to Fu Nanxiao at the moment. He only refused when he received the call, but the other party was anxious to tell him.
"I saw Jiang Yilai."
Hearing this, Qi Yuheng froze. Fu Nanxiao glanced at him, vaguely sensing something as well.
"And then?" Qi Yuheng asked, intrigued.
"She is the new lawyer hired by the victim's side. She still blames me for meddling back then and wants to protect me, so she can only ask President Fu for help."
Jiang Lezhen truly lives up to her reputation as an actress; when she spoke these words, she was filled with grievance, making it almost believable that she felt bullied.
Qi Yuheng, of course, could not make the decision himself, so he could only cover the mouthpiece and look at Fu Nanxiao.
"Boss, Miss Jiang said the opposing lawyer is... Miss Jiang Eli."
Upon hearing this, Fu Nanxiao paused in his grip on the pen, then clenched it tightly for a moment. His deep gaze revealed no hint of his current state of mind.
But the only thing that can be said to be true is that this name brought about a change in him.
Qi Yuheng cautiously asked again, "Boss, shall we let Miss Jiang in?"
If he agrees, it indirectly shows that he cares about this person.
"Mind your own business!"
His attitude was clear in four words, and Qi Yuheng could only answer truthfully: "Miss Jiang, this is your matter. The boss said he won't interfere."
How could this be? He resented Jiang Yilai for betraying him and leaving back then, so why wouldn't he want revenge now that he's back?
Jiang Lezhen continued her efforts: "If we lose the case, it will also damage the reputation of the Fu family. Is President Fu really going to sit idly by?"
"Since Miss Jiang is aware of these circumstances, please handle this matter properly yourself. After all, if it causes a negative impact on the Fu family, the boss will not let you off easily."
