Chapter 346: Cheng Zhimin Meets Tinglan

By late at night, she got too tired and fell asleep leaning against the sofa in a corner.When she woke up, it was past 5 a.m. Most of the classmates were sleeping soundly, but she unexpectedly woke...This move is truly ruthless. If all those who secretly give birth to children in the future, use their children as leverage, and want to become mistresses without working hard, encounter this move, they will probably have to weigh the pros and cons, because it's typical of accompanying the wife but losing soldiers, a loss that outweighs the gain. 。

Xiao Xin admires Lawyer Shu for being able to think inversely and put forward this suggestion. 。Because in reality, the vast majority of legitimate wives who encounter this kind of problem either get divorced or swallow their pride and let their husbands give the mistress monthly child support. They would never claim custody of the children themselves and make the mistress pay child support. 。This Ms. Sang's behavior hit Shu Tinglan's sore spot just right. It's unforgivable for a mistress to give birth to a child, and then use the child as leverage in negotiations to ensure her financial security for life is simply beyond the pale. 。But when she gave suggestions to Mrs. Wu, she didn't mix in any personal emotions, just rationally put forward the plan to Mrs. Wu and let her make her own choice. 。Mrs. Wu, being a shrewd businesswoman, knew exactly what was at stake and didn't rush to choose a solution. She simply said she needed time to think it over. However, the matter of recovering the one million yuan could be decided today. 。"That, Mr. Shu, I entrust the matter of retrieving this $1 million to you. For any relevant documents needed, please feel free to contact me at any time." 。"

Good " 。"

Listening, you've worked hard" 。"The rich wife who came with [him/her] also sincerely thanked..." 。"You're welcome, it was my pleasure." 。"Being a friend of Fu Tai, Shu Tinglan naturally took care of it personally. Otherwise, for such a simple case, she would have directly handed it over to Xiao Xin for practice." 。Shutinglan sent them out of the conference room and immediately saw Cheng Zhimin sitting upright on the chair outside the conference room door. 。Cheng Zhimin saw her come out and greeted her first:

"Tinglan, long time no see" 。Shutinglan's face stiffened, but she nodded silently: "Wait a moment!"

Then, without looking at them, she sent Fu Tai and Wu Tai out of the law firm.

"Tinglan, you have clients, don't send them to us anymore, get back to work." 。"Mrs. Fu was perceptive and noticed the elegant lady from earlier." 。It's okay. 。After Shu Tinglan insisted on seeing them into the car, he returned to the law firm. 。

Xiaoxin was entertaining Cheng Zhimin, and as gossipy as she was, during the entertainment, she had already swept over Cheng Zhimin's entire outfit, thinking in her heart that this lady looked low-key, but everything on her body was haute couture, belonging to understated luxury. 。

Then she felt it was familiar, she had been mixing in various online platforms for years and had read all kinds of news. The more she looked, the more familiar it became, but she just couldn't remember who it was. 。Cheng Zhimin sat in the conference room, her entire aura as strong as ever, like her own domain. 。Shu Tinglan sat opposite her after entering. After years of separation, Cheng Zhimin remained unchanged. Her gaze still held a hint of disdain that Cheng Zhimin herself couldn't detect. 。Cheng Zhimin actually deliberately reined in her thoughts, after all, she didn't come here to argue with Shu Tinglan. 。But the essence of a person, how could it ever change

Every word and deed, would unwittingly reveal it. 。Shutinglan looked at her, the past surfacing in his mind. So when looking at Cheng Zhimin, his eyes held not only vigilance but also a hint of sharpness. 。She had been prepared for this. Since Zhu Yu'an took custody, Cheng Zhimin would eventually come looking. 。

"Is something the matter" she asked 。Tinglan, you've really impressed me. 。Chenzhimin couldn't help but sneer. 。

Shu Tinglan listened patiently, without revealing any emotion as she waited for her to continue. 。"When you agreed to the divorce, you promised me that you would never contact Zhuo Yu'an again. But you secretly gave birth to a child." 。"Since things have come to this, there's nothing that can be done. It's just that I can't bring myself to say anything. Keeping it all bottled up is unbearable and goes against Cheng Zhimin's personality." 。。She was very bothered by the current situation. Why wouldn't she go back to being with Zhuo Yu'an This is the answer, because she didn't want any connection with his family. 。"There's no need for it, Tinglan. Don't be so nervous. I just wanted to come and see the children. If possible, I'd like to take them back to Beijing for a while." 。Cheng Zhimin is also probing. 。"Zuo Yu'an sent you here" Shu Tinglan pressed her fingernails into the flesh of her palms under the table, the pain helping her maintain a semblance of calm as she looked at Cheng Zhimin across from her. 。Run, run! Run for so many years, and you still haven't escaped. 。It is simply not acceptable for Zhu Y uan to avoid coming himself and instead have his mother pick up the children.

Cheng Zhimin evaded the question and continued,

"I understand that the court has awarded custody of the children to us, but I also understand your feelings as a mother and I won't forcefully take the children away, you can rest assured about that." 。"I'm curious, what are your plans after the kids are gone" Will you go to Senzhou or Beijing too Will you keep pestering Zhuo Yu'an

Shu Tinglan laughed in exasperation: "Rest assured, I won't bother your son..." 。Is there anything else If not, I need to get back to work. 。"When can I see the children" Zhī Mǐn didn't hide her intentions this time and stated her purpose clearly. 。Cannot see you now 。Shu Tinglan didn't hesitate to refuse. She couldn't allow the children to be treated condescendingly by Cheng Zhimin, nor did she need Cheng Zhimin to see them with an attitude of charity. 。It wasn't Shu Tinglan who was being sensitive, but Cheng Zhimin unknowingly revealed this. In her view, she had already forgiven these two children and even allowed them into Beijing and the Zhuo family. They should be grateful and thankful for her generosity. 。

How ridiculous!

That's the child she protected with her life, how could she bear to have him mistreated by Cheng Zhimin

Shu Tinglan's firm refusal pushed Cheng Zhim in's patience to its limit,

"Shu Tinglan, I came here today not to argue with you, but to sincerely get along with you. Don't go too far>>> 。Cheng Zhimin was already in menopause, her emotions were easily agitated and difficult to control. 。To be honest, whether in life or work, I'm always the one who gets my way, and I rarely get rejected like this. 。"Also, please be respectful. This is my workplace." 。Shu Tinglan was unafraid of her either. She retorted loudly and then shouted towards the outside:

"Xiao Xin, send her off." 。After that, he left without looking back, returning to his desk and picking up his computer before leaving the law firm to meet a client. 。Instead of being influenced by Cheng Zhimin's emotions, it's better to go to work and earn more money so that you have the ability to protect your child. 。

Xiaoxin was called to the conference room. When facing Cheng Zhimin again, he already knew her identity. 。After all, she was just a young girl who hadn't seen much of the world. Faced with Cheng Zhimin's powerful aura and her background, she couldn't help but be apprehensive and timid. 。Please this way. 。She respectfully held the door to the conference room open and stood straight, politely asking Cheng Zhimin to leave. 。Cheng Zhimin naturally wouldn't stoop to making things difficult for a small assistant, so she grabbed her bag and left. 。Xiaoxin secretly stuck out her tongue from behind, comparing Xiaofu and Cheng Zemin in her heart. She still thought Xiaofu was more gentle, kind, and cute. If she were in that situation, she would choose Xiaofu too. Getting along with Cheng Zemin would shorten her lifespan by a few years. 。The restaurant wasn't far from the hotel where they were staying. Shu Tinglan wanted to take a walk, so she asked Ji Jia to go back first. After drinking a glass of wine, her stomach churned uncomfort...
