public relations, legal affairs, technology, and assistants were all looking for him. Also, business partners and agents were all looking for him.Shu Tinglan sat motionless in the dark study. She cou...For some people, love is love, sex is sex, and there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that Zhuo Yu an can't do that, and that's his principle or bottom line. 。He refused Cui Jie's request to send the clothes to the dry cleaners. He took the hanger himself and hung it in the room behind his office, reluctant to wash it away. 。 Cui saw it instantly and understood, this lipstick mark must belong to Miss Shu. She also felt sorry for her previous wild thoughts. What kind of person was Zhuo Yunan She should know very well. He wouldn't even bother talking to other girls, how could he have any other relationship with them 。Go ahead and get busy. 。Zhu Yu'an began to work. 。After Cui Jie went out, she met Lin Zhiyue who came to have lunch with Fu Zong at noon. 。Lin Zhi'ao is a gossipy person. She heard about the red lipstick mark on Zhuo YUAN's white shirt from this morning's meeting from her intel station. She went to Cui Jie to confirm it and immediately sent a voice message to Shu Tinglan. 。
Lin Zhiqiao's mind raced, she quickly figured out what was going on. 。"Are you and Zhu Yu'an okay" she asked directly. 。
"No" 。Shu Tinglan tossed and turned all night, couldn't sleep well, didn't fall asleep until early morning, and was woken up by Sun Yuyou sending him documents early in the morning. All day long, he felt groggy. 。Just as she began to concentrate on her work, Lin Zhixuan's voice request interrupted her train of thought. 。"None Then how come there's lipstick on his shoulder Come on, tell me, how intense was it last night"Shu Tinglan's lingering annoyance vanished instantly when Lin Zhiyao said that. 。"Nothing happened, it was just too crowded in the elevator and I accidentally brushed against someone." 。Last night she didn't even realize it herself. 。Lin Zhixuan stopped asking further. Many things were understood by everyone, there was no need to ask so clearly. 。"But there was one thing she insisted on asking:
"Shushu, in your heart, who is more important, Zhuo Yunan or Yi Muyang"
"Yi Muyang. Being with him makes me feel safe and secure." 。She answered without a moment's thought. 。She had never compared them, there was no need, as she had never considered getting back together with Zhu Yunan. 。This was the result she thought about all night last night. 。She replied without hesitation: "Both." 。< You know, after going through so much, it's hard for me to trust people and feel safe with them. > 。But Yi Muyang can give me confidence, give me a sense of security, which is very important. 。Okay, I admit, maybe I don't have that flutter in my stomach for him. But is that really important Can you build a life on that feeling alone What I want is peace of mind, stability. 。She experienced betrayal from her father, the pain of separation from her mother, and the transformative power of life through her children. Enough to be clear about what she truly wanted: not a whirlwind romance, but a peaceful and stable life. 。However, last night she realized that she really was terrible. She lost herself in that atmosphere, even though she immediately sobered up and didn't continue, avoiding an unfaceable mistake, she couldn't deny that she was a bad person. 。
Lin Zhihao finally believed her. Yes, love is fleeting, only a stable and secure relationship can last. 。But then came Shu Tinglan's voice from the phone:
"Yaoyao, but am I worthy of Yi Muyang"
Yi Muyang's sunshine and purity made her feel utterly ashamed at this moment. 。。Shu Tinglan hung up the phone call with Lin Zhifei and continued to work. 。Sun Yueyue saw a familiar name in the materials from Hengsheng Capital sent by Sun Ruyue that morning. It was Jiajia, a former colleague from Hongzheng Law Firm. It turned out that after being dismissed from Hongzheng Law Firm, Jiajia had been placed in the investment review department of Hengsheng Capital through her father's connections. 。
This time, the person she was liaising with from Wenjian was... 。That is to say, the staff member of Hengsheng Capital who was bribed by Wen Jian is most likely Jiajia. 。Shu Tinglan quickly scanned all the review materials and found that all the signatures at the end were Jiajia's. 。So Zhu Yu'an had already known all of this, but she was Wen Jian's defense lawyer, so he only provided her with these important materials and did not give any opinions, only letting her weigh for herself what to do. 。She met Wen Jian at dusk, but didn't mention Jiajia. She only discussed with Wen Jian the strategy for her defense at the trial tomorrow, and went through the relevant evidence again to see if there were any omissions. 。When it came to matters that would affect the latter half of his life, Wen Jian didn't dare to take it lightly. He studied the relevant materials carefully and repeatedly asked Shu Tinglan:
"Are you sure that defending with an economic dispute is okay"
Shu Tinglan did not answer directly: “This is the only way to solve your case, but no lawyer can guarantee a 100% win.” 。Wenjian, all you need to do is trust me. 。"Wen Jian nodded, there was truly no other choice." 。As for the matter of her bribing Ji Jia, she didn't mention it, and Shu Tinglan pretended not to know. 。
To not mention it is to harbor a sense of complacency. Firstly, she believes that Jiajia's position at Hengsheng Capital is secure due to her father being the bank president and an invisible shareholder of Hengsheng Capital, making it impossible for anyone to touch Jiajia's position. 。Second, if she is also charged with bribery, it would be the icing on the cake. She chose Jiajia initially because of her status and wouldn't easily be pushed around. 。So there's no need to tell Shu Tinglan the details. 。The next day, the trial proceeded as scheduled. 。Hengheng Capital brought a team of lawyers, plus several key personnel from the investment department. It was quite a show of force. After taking their seats, they discovered that Lu Kuo from Listening Whale Finance and Zhuo Yu'an from Zhuo Yuan Technology were also in the audience. They couldn't help but feel surprised. 。Hen Sheng Capital and Tingjing Finance are bitter rivals. This acquisition of Shunxin plan fell through, and Hen Sheng Capital also more or less knows that Zhuoyuan Technology and Tingjing Finance were the ones who secretly sabotaged it behind the scenes. They already had a grudge against each other, seeing them sitting in the audience now just fueled their anger. Were they here to watch the show as others fell "I didn't expect President Zhuo and President Lu to have so much free time" This really wasn't something they should be doing. 。
Hengsheng Capital's people didn't know, these two bosses weren't there to watch the commotion. They were there to see Wen Jian's lawyer. 。Lu Kuo smiled and shrugged, ignoring them. 。Zuo Yu'an was even worse, not even glancing at the people from Hengsheng Capital. He was incredibly cold and arrogant. 。The trial has officially begun.
Hengsheng Capital's lawyer was aggressive from the start:
"Your client, Ms. Wen, lured Hengsheng Capital with fake sales contracts, profit reports, and worthless patents and research results when she first approached us. She intentionally defrauded us." 。After the opposing counsel finished speaking, they presented the relevant evidence. 。also pretended not to see her and went to his own door to press the fingerprint lock.Lu Yaoyao only heard the sound of a door creaking open behind her, he actually didn't even acknowledge her Not even...
