Chapter 396: Lawyer Shu is Free

ee her grandfather's house. It was the same house she and her grandfather used to live in, located in a residential complex next to their former family courtyard.I didn't expect Lu Kuo to actually agr...He almost blurted out, wanting to ask her what perfume she was wearing, it smelled so good. But luckily he didn't say it, otherwise it would have been embarrassing. Shū Tīnglán probably wasn't wearing any perfume; the scent on her body was probably just the clean smell of shampoo or body wash, or maybe laundry detergent.

It's natural to pay extra attention to beautiful things, and Lan XiaoShan is a normal person. He'll be kinder and more agreeable to attractive subordinates, which is perfectly understandable.

Besides, this pretty subordinate works diligently and makes progress, not being arrogant or rash. Most importantly, she never gossips or teases the boss's private life. Who wouldn't like her

lanshao mountain drove to a restaurant a few kilometers away from the law firm for a meal. He wasn't at all bossy, very approachable, and even apologized proactively.

“Mr. Shu, I'm really sorry about what happened with Han Ya last time. I apologize for any offense I caused.” He raised his glass of water to her in a toast.

Shu Tinglan also hurriedly raised her cup: "Lawyer Lan, you're being polite. Just explain the misunderstanding."

Lan Xiao Shan looked at her: "Well, explain."

Shu Tinglan also let out a breath of relief. Thinking back to his impression of Han Ya that day, she seemed like a very rational person. That day must have been impulsive, and perhaps he had heard some rumors as well.

After taking a sip of water, Lan Xiaoshan continued to apologize.

"Also, that day to calm her down first, I said you were Mr. Lu's girlfriend. I apologize for that too." Lan Xiaoshan still wasn't sure what the relationship was between Shu Tinglan and Lu Kuo, but the two had never made it public. What he said was wrong.

"This, Lu Kuo and I are truly just friends."

"Well, I know that's why I apologize. Personal matters shouldn't be brought to work, and I apologize for making you laugh, Lawyer Shu." Lan Xiaoshan was very sincere, and then, unknowingly, he told Shu Tinglan a lot about Han Ya.

"Over all these years, I have indeed fallen short of her expectations, so I am willing to compensate her. All my assets can be hers, enough for her to live a comfortable life for the rest of her days."

"However, over the years, we have diverged in our personal growth and values. Continuing to entangle ourselves would only lead to mutual depletion."

Lan Xiaoshan considered himself a good talker, and he thought he could convince Han Ya to break up. But Han Ya was unmoved and refused to agree, leaving him quite anxious.

Shu Tinglan nodded silently, thinking to herself that men always seem to think money can solve everything. However, what women want is love, not money. Especially someone like Han Ya, a highly educated woman who knows how to make her own money, why would she care about yours

However, she was not comfortable being someone else's emotional advisor and didn't want to get involved in other people's relationships. She thought that if possible, she could recommend Lawyer Lan to Lin Zhi as a client.

Lan Xiao Shan rarely talks about his feelings to others, but he felt a bit troubled keeping it all bottled up inside. Today, he decided to confide in Shu Ting Lan, and his mood improved significantly.

Shuting Lan is a good listener. As soon as he speaks, she listens attentively without interrupting and never shows a bored expression. Although her clothes are rather simple, she gives off an overall refreshing feeling. Her skin is also very good, and at such close proximity, there isn't a single blemish visible.

Two people were whispering to each other when suddenly, a familiar voice came.

“Mr. Lan, Ms. Shu, what a coincidence.”

This is Lawyer Zhang from Zhurong Technology.

Lan Xiao Shan hurriedly got up and greeted Lawyer Zhang, feeling a little strange in his heart, wondering how he knew Lawyer Shu

Shu Tinglan also got up and saw that Zhang Lawyer was standing next to Zhuo Yunan, who was looking at her with a half-smile. Her face flushed, and she lowered her head to greet Zhang Lawyer.

"Are you here to eat too"

"Yes, we happened to be passing by." Lawyer Zhang replied. In fact, Lawyer Zhang had seen Lawyer Shu sitting here long ago. Lawyer Zhang originally wanted to come over and say hello, but Mr. Zhu stopped him.

Then, Shu Lawyer was seen attentively listening to Lan Xiaoshan, nodding from time to time, her eyes shining brightly like stars. Next to her, Zhuo's face grew increasingly grim.

Lawyer Zhang was afraid that Lawyer Shu would chat with Blue Xiao Shan further, causing Mr. Zhu to erupt, so he hurriedly came over to greet them proactively.

When facing Zhuo Yu'an and Lan Xiaoshan, Shu Tinglan felt a little guilty, afraid that Lan Xiaoshan would discover their relationship.

Lanshaoshan took the initiative to greet Zhu Yunan, only to hear Zhu Yunan say

“Nice to meet you, I hope we have the opportunity to collaborate in the future.”

It's simply unbelievable, he actually took the initiative to extend an olive branch! Lan Xiao Shan was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly replied, "There will definitely be an opportunity."

Zhuo Yuan looked at Shu Tinglan with a smile that didn't reach his eyes and continued, "Lawyer Shu, you used to work on an M&A project for our Zhu Yuan. Have you switched to Lanshan Law Firm"

Knowing it all along yet pretending to ask, being sarcastic and insincere. That's all there is to it.

Shu Tinglan glared at him warningly, silencing him with a look and making him leave quietly. He didn't even look at her, just fiddling with his phone with his head down.

In a little while, he looked up at her again. Her phone rang. He had sent her a WeChat message: Red beauty is trouble!

He finally understood what she meant that night when she said she was a beauty who brought disaster. He had been overthinking things, and he would never forget this.

Shu Tinglan's face flushed even redder.

Lan Xiao Shan heard him mention Shu Ting Lan, thinking to himself that President Zhuo had a great memory. He's truly a big shot, able to remember someone as small-time as this lawyer

As if answering Lan Xiaoshan's question, Zhu Yu'an said lukewarmly.

“Ms. Shu was very responsible and dedicated when she worked for Zhuyuan before, she had strong professional skills and could handle things independently, so I have a deep impression of her.”

Lawyer Zhang on the side couldn't help but smile. Look, Director Zhu is still Director Zhu. Even though he was angry, he was secretly praising Lawyer Shu in front of her, almost saying directly, "Use her again! Promote her to partner immediately!"

Shu Tinglan's heart skipped a beat At that time, she was just an assistant and a newbie following Director Xiao. Where did she get the confidence to stand alone

"I see! Lawyer Shu is indeed excellent." Lan Xiaoshan admitted this.

As for the partner position, of course, further consideration is needed. Besides, he is also a businessman. In the team, the two excellent lawyers are currently competing with each other, which inspires their fighting spirit and increases productivity. Therefore, there is no need to rush to promote a partner.

Shu Tinglan and Zhuo YUAN had agreed beforehand not to interfere in each other's work. She wanted to prove herself with her own abilities. But Zhang, the lawyer beside them, didn't know that. Seeing that Mr. Zhuo had spoken to this extent, as the head of the legal team, he naturally wanted to take the opportunity and proactively opened his mouth

“I remember that Lawyer Shu had a lot of experience in intellectual property law. It just so happens that one of our group company's products has recently been infringed upon. If Lawyer Shu is available, could you come to our group for a detailed discussion on the cooperation”

Shu Tinglan looked at Zhuo Yu'an with a puzzled expression. Didn't he say that he wouldn't interfere in her work Why was he doing this again

Zuo Yu'an is truly innocent. This was Zhang lawyer's own action without authorization.

Shu Tinglan hadn't replied yet, Lan Xiaoshan agreed on her behalf.

“Ms. Shu is free this afternoon, go ahead.”n't think about it at all.She had to voice her discomfort: “Lately, I’ve been feeling groggy and unable to wake up properly. Occasionally, I even feel nauseous.” Actually, the nausea was just a figme...
