Anger and shame went hand in hand. Lu Enxi was so angry that she could only tremble all over and couldn't say a word.
She lowered her head and poked her chopsticks again and again, treating the meat on the plate as Si Bainian and wanting to cut it into pieces.
Si Bo Nian saw the bruises on her collarbone and regretted that he was too rough, "Does it hurt?"
Lu Enxi glared at you fiercely, with murderous intent in his eyes, "Find a stick and poke it on you to see if it hurts."
The harsh tone put unhappiness into every syllable, for fear that the damage would not be strong enough.
Si Bo Nian saw that her shoulders were shaking with anger and her face turned pale. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you taken gunpowder?"
Lu Enxi didn't want to talk to him, nor did she want to look at him. She lowered her head and continued to torture the poor vegetables on the plate.
How could he have nothing to do with himself? How could he have selective amnesia?!
Can the harm caused by one's own hands be laughed off?
Are you really putting your pants up and not recognizing anyone?!
Si Bo Nian said, "Are you aggrieved that I slept with you? It was you who took the initiative to come to the door, not me."
Lu Enxi put down her chopsticks. She couldn't help it anymore.
What does proactive door-to-door communication mean?
She didn't go last night! She also made it clear this morning that it was his overlord who took the initiative!
"Do you think it's normal and casual to sleep with a woman who is neither your girlfriend nor your wife? Yes, there is no shortage of women around you, and they all come to your door eagerly. You treat women with all your thoughts.
It's just a plaything. After sleeping, you should eat and drink, and you don't have to worry about the other person's feelings at all."
Lu Enxi's eyes were sore. She wanted to control her emotions and act more chic, but she couldn't maintain her aura in front of Si Bo Nian. "It's because I don't overestimate my abilities. I thought that in Mr. Si's mind, I was different from them.
My fault."
After saying this, Lu Enxi's nose was so sore that it almost fell off, and her voice broke, "But can Mr. Si give me the last bit of dignity? Please leave me alone for a while, please?"
Si Boyian looked at her silently.
Lu Enxi's breathing was rapid, his chest heaved violently, and he might explode if he continued talking.
The phone ringing interrupted their silence.
Lu Enxi went to the living room to answer the question, "Senior...what?"
Looking back at Si Bo Nian, who was still eating slowly, he continued, "Well, I have all the information... I don't have any plans today, so I just need to catch up on some sleep."
Putting down the phone, Lu Enxi felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly alive.
The senior said that km signed the agency contract in the morning and praised her for her ability, but he didn't know that she paid for this case with her body.
Look at Si Boyian, she wants to say something, but her mind is too confused to form a sentence.
Si Bo Nian packed up the used dishes, put them in the dishwasher, and turned on the button. After doing this, he came out and said to her, "Quick-frozen food is not healthy. Eating too much can lead to sudden death."
Half of Lu Enxi's face twitched, "Oh, thank you for reminding me."
"There are ingredients in the refrigerator, and quick meals only take three to five minutes. If you don't learn, you will never know how to make it."
Lu Enxi snorted coldly. Even if she died suddenly, he was the one who killed her. It had nothing to do with fast food.
"Oh." One word came out from between his teeth.
Si Bo Nian added, "The contract is signed and written in black and white. KM will not change his mind. This case is yours. You will win or lose based on your ability."
Lu Enxi took a breath, grabbed the car keys from the entrance and threw them over, "Jia Yanqing's car, please return it to him," and finally added through gritted teeth, "Thank you!"
——
Qiao Fei called her in the evening and said she had time to go back to Los Angeles in the next two days and make an appointment.
After Lu Enxi hesitated, she decided to make a friend out of thin air, "Da Qiao, I have a client who got divorced, but she had a relationship with her ex-husband again..."
Qiao Fei retorted, "Who is the person involved? Is it you? Did you sleep with Si Bo Nian?"
Lu Enxi held his forehead, an angry person has zero IQ, "Yeah."
"Did you enjoy it?"
Lu Enxi ignored the item of active and passive, fearing that Qiao Fei would fly back and smash Si Bo Nian's head, "Forgot."
"Damn, you can forget how fast he is? Forget it, let's not have a fast guy."
Lu Enxi got a headache when she thought about what she had done with Si Bo Nian, "I got the km case."
Qiao Fei snorted, "Scumbag, my ex-wife has to sleep with her if she wants to get resources."
After a night's rest, Lu Enxi went to the law firm early the next morning to prepare for the court session.
Zhang Yuheng was not idle either and used his personal network resources to check Li Bing's personal account.
"He really has no money. I guess Mr. Si won't be able to get the compensation he demands, so he will have to go to jail to pay off his debt."
Lu Enxi read the information and rubbed his eyebrows, "Who is the other party's defense lawyer? He Juzheng?"
Zhang Yuheng said, "He Juzheng is very good at sizing up the situation. How stupid can he be to accept the lawsuit that he is losing 100% of the time?"
After saying that, he looked at Lu Enxi meaningfully, "Have you ever come into contact with anyone above you in the Los Angeles legal circle?"
"As you know about my circle, most of the connections I made in the past didn't work. Seeing me hiding away, others haven't had a chance to connect."
Zhang Yuheng pointed his finger at the table and pondered, "This won't work. I have to arrange a bureau so that you can get to know the people in the court and procuratorate. It will be easier for you to handle things later. Only then will you be able to speak up when handling criminal cases."
Lu Enxi put his hands together and thanked him, "Please leave everything to me, senior."
"Don't be too happy too early. The ones I know are all small characters, and the big guys are beyond our reach."
In the afternoon, Lu Enxi received a call from He Juzheng.
We had no contact with each other after having dinner last time, why this time?
"Lawyer He, what's the matter?"
He Juzheng said in a serious tone, "I heard that he is still km's attorney."
The news spread quickly enough, "Yes, it's me."
He Juzheng pondered, "Maybe I can help you. We used to have a hostile relationship, but now I have withdrawn from the case. I have done detailed analysis on Li Bing before, including going to his hometown in person."
Lu Enxi was surprised that he could still operate like this.
"Why help me?"
There was the rustling of clothes on He Juzheng's side, and then the sound of opening the door, "Let's have an interview. Can I invite you to drink coffee?"
Both of them were very efficient, and within twenty minutes, they were already sitting opposite each other.
He Juzheng still wears a straight suit, Korean style design, open the buttons to reveal a white shirt, exquisite and high-end.
Amidst the rich aroma of coffee, he said with a smile, "Last time we had dinner, I was thinking about how to ask you out to meet again, but I was afraid of disturbing you."
Lu Enxi thought to herself, you are already a married man, telling me this seems a bit greasy!
“It is an honor for me to be advised by Lawyer He.”
He Juzheng did not follow her around, "Li Bing is a filial son and loves his daughter very much. He just made a mistake and offended KM. This is why I was willing to defend him even though I knew I might lose."
Lu Enxi gently stirred the coffee, not without surprise, "I thought why a lawyer wouldn't destroy his own brand for so-called favors."
"Lawyers are human beings too, and sometimes they have emotions - not to mention this, Li Bing has completely offended Mr. Si this time, and it seems that jail time is inevitable."
Lu Enxi said, "What suggestions do you have?"
He Juzheng took a sip of coffee and said, "Really want to hear it?"
