After this, Ji Jian was silent for a long time. When she spoke again, she unexpectedly called her name seriously.
"Xinning."
Xinning, this is the only one among so many people, family and friends, who calls her this. Sometimes Ye Xinning also wonders why Ji Jianshen has become the most special one over the years, and why he likes to call her Xinning.
Ning, she asked him before, and he said he could call him anything. Later, he also called him several other names, but in summary, this one was the most popular.
"Huh?" She replied slowly, "What's wrong? Ji Jianshen."
On the phone, Ji Jianshen still didn't hear any sound for a long time.
Just when Ye Xinning was about to speak again, there was finally a voice inside.
"It's nothing, I just want to tell you to have a good rest."
"You have said this just now." For some reason, Ye Xinning always felt that Ji Jianshen's attitude was a bit strange.
It seems... I have something to say.
"Ji Jianshen."
"Um?"
Ye Xinning thought carefully and finally asked, "Do you have anything to say to me?"
"No, I just wanted to call you and say congratulations."
Ye Xinning lowered his head and pursed his lips. Just when he was about to say something, Zhou Yun's voice came from Ji Jianshen's side.
"I have some things to do here, so I won't tell you for now. I'll call you when I have time."
After Ji Jianshen said this, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
Ye Xinning didn't even have time to say anything else.
Looking at the phone that had been hung up, Ye Xinning sighed silently.
When Shen Lin appeared behind her, she was still in a daze. The man hugged her waist from behind and placed his hand on her abdomen, "What are you thinking about?"
Ye Xinning gathered her thoughts, turned back to look at Shen Lin, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you going to the company? Why are you back again?"
"I forgot an important document and came back to get it. I just saw you calling here for a long time. Are you someone very important?"
Faced with Shen Lin's second inquiry, Ye Xinning did not name Ji Jianshen.
Just being Huo Yanzhi made Shen Lin so jealous. Ji Jianshen's name was still inappropriate to appear in the conversation between the couple.
"It's nothing. He just called me every night and didn't say anything. He just told me some things I should pay attention to during pregnancy."
When talking about pregnancy, Shen Lin's attention was easily diverted.
"I'm still worried about you going to work. Plus you're pregnant now. Why don't you quit your job at the law firm first?"
Hearing Shen Lin say that he hoped she would quit her job, Ye Xinning refused without thinking, "Shen Lin, I can't stay idle. Please help me quit my job and let me stay at home all day. In less than three days,
I think I will get sick from being suppressed."
Shen Lin covered her mouth and kissed her, gently, as if a feather had touched her, but it was a bit disturbing.
"Don't talk nonsense." He warned in a low voice, but his words were full of doting. "I just don't want you to be too tired. Can you understand?"
"I know, but I think this job is within my tolerance for now, and I'm just pregnant. My physical condition is not bad, and I'm not ready to quit my job and recuperate at home."
Shen Lin had no way to change her inner thoughts, so in the end he could only compromise.
"Okay, didn't you come back to get the documents? Go find your documents quickly."
Shen Lin still hugged her and wouldn't let go.
Ye Xinning had no choice but to step forward and kiss his lips, "Okay, go and see you tonight."
Shen Lin was then satisfied, "Wait until I come back."
"Um."
…
Early the next morning, Ye Xinning arrived at the law firm and met Xiao Chen as soon as he arrived at the office.
"Here we come." Xiao Chen said with a faint smile.
"Um."
"I heard from Ye Xiaoxiao that you were pregnant. I originally thought that the Shen family would let you rest at home because of your pregnancy."
Ye Xinning did not hide this, "It is indeed what you said. Shen Lin means that he hopes that I can raise my baby at home and not go out to work."
After hearing her words, Xiao Chen had a look of despair on his face, "I say Ye Xinning, you can't be so cruel, right? My law firm is already short of people. If you resign and go home at this time, I think my law firm will also be in trouble." Stop driving and just go home."
Ye Xinning was amused by Xiao Chen's exaggerated look, "No, I'm just kidding you. I have no plans to resign. As long as I'm more careful at work, it'll be fine."
"That's good, that's good. Even if you still have some conscience, although there are new people here, I feel that I can rest assured that you are here."
"Are there new people here?"
Ye Xinning captured the key point of Xiao Chen's words.
"Well, here we are, I just went to the HR department to handle the onboarding process."
Ye Xinning was curious about this future colleague, and Xiao Chen also noticed her curiosity, "I still have something to do, so I don't have time to introduce you one by one. This person came back from abroad and is very capable. If you are curious, you can come over. Let’s chat, the office is diagonally opposite to yours.”
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he left. Ye Xinning stood there, thinking of what Xiao Chen said.
Coming back from abroad?
So is he a gold medal lawyer who has returned from overseas?
Ye Xinning is curious, but she has never been a warm-hearted person, and she can't even go to other people's offices to say hello.
She sat down to do her work and was soon immersed in it.
Time flew by and it was almost noon. Ye Xinning had been sitting for a long time. Just as he was about to get up and go to the tea room to pour a glass of water, he heard a knock on the door.
She raised her head while busy and heard a female voice, "Hello, I want to ask if you have any knives here? I have some express delivery,"
Ye Xinning's eyes fell on the woman in front of him.
The woman was wearing a long white dress, her long hair was permed into big waves and draped behind her back. She had a standard oval face and her eyes were clear and bright from her point of view. When she saw her looking over, the woman looked at her politely. Nodding, "Hello, I'm sorry, did I disturb you?"
The woman's voice was soft and slow. Ye Xinning put back her thoughts and stood up.
When he came to the door, he said to Shen Lin, "Are you the new lawyer?"
"My name is Mu Chaochao, hello."
Mu Chaochao, inexplicably, Ye Xinning felt that this name was a bit cute and not in line with the temperament and beauty in front of him.
"Hello, Lawyer Mu, I'm Ye Xinning. This is the first time we've met, and we'll be colleagues from now on."
"You are Director Ye, hello, hello."
Mu Chaochao stretched out his hand, and the two shook hands briefly.
"I heard Director Xiao talk about you. Director Ye is very powerful."
"Xiao Chen's words are somewhat exaggerated. I am actually an ordinary lawyer. Where is Lawyer Mu? I heard that you came back from abroad. Can you tell me the details?"
