Late night reading, please turn on the night mode for a better reading experience~

oke with me" 。"" 。As before, both hands controlled her hands. 。The oppressed person was still smiling, their eyes reflecting the light of the lake and stars,"I didn't expect Mr. Zhuo to be so easy to..."What kind of cases does Tinglan handle now that she's a lawyer"

"I'm only an associate attorney, doing the grunt work."

She answered blandly. In fact, she had been working as in-house counsel for a company since graduation and only recently transferred to the law firm this year. She was indeed just a junior associate. As Lin Zhifei put it, she always did things the opposite way. While others transitioned from lawyers at law firms to corporate positions after several years, she did the exact opposite.

"Tinglan is being modest."

She was a conversation killer. The class monitor tried several times to chat with her, but ended up awkwardly retreating each time. Besides, the other students were also uninterested in her, and the topic quickly shifted to the legendary figures of their high school days, Zhuo Yuyan and Wen Jian - the male and female gods of the science class.

Lu Kuo laughed triumphantly: "Back then, Wen Jian even chased after Zhuo Yu'an, right"

"Lu Kuo!" Zhu Yu'an, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke, his voice carrying a warning as he stopped Lu Kuo from continuing.

Shu Tinglan hadn't heard the name Wen Jian in years. Her heart sank, and she glanced at Cheng Chen beside her with a bewildered expression. Cheng Chen squeezed her hand reassuringly, but her spirits plummeted.

After dinner, we realized that Cheng Chen was flying back to Qining City tonight. As her former admirer, the squad leader felt it was his duty to see her off to the airport. Before leaving, he shouted towards Zhuo Yu'an who was smoking by the flowerbed in the distance:

"You sent Tinglan home."

Let's go!

Zuo Yu'an didn't linger on Shu Tinglan for a second, and after speaking, he walked straight towards the car ahead.

"No need, the subway station is just ahead."

Hearing her refusal, Zhuo Yunan finally stopped and turned back to look at her. He reached out and handed her his phone, his expression unchanged.

"Tell Lao Lu yourself."

He made it clear that he was only sending her because the squad leader had asked him to. But in her eyes, it was just a polite suggestion from the squad leader, not something she needed to take seriously or call to refuse.

But Zhu Yu'an in front of him apparently took it seriously.

As she reached the entrance of her apartment building, things seemed peaceful enough. But the man, who had been silent throughout their journey, suddenly spoke at the end.

"I'll take you in."

Shu Tinglan turned her head to look at the man in the car window. Besides his identity, he was also undeniably elegant and handsome. Perhaps it was because he had had a little alcohol, but when their eyes met, two sentences from Lin Zhiyao flashed through her mind:

Food and sex are the desires of all humankind;

Such a man is a steal!

Gone crazy!

At this moment, I remembered that Zhuo Yu'an had said he would send her upstairs. He probably just wanted to send her upstairs to ensure her safety and complete Lu Kuo's assignment.

And she, it was all Lin Zhi's fault. For the past two years, he kept telling her to enjoy her youth and that if she didn't, she would grow old. At that time, she was extremely oblivious, her head full of yellow garbage.

The steam in the bathroom continued to rise, and the more I tried to cool down, the more awkward and unbearable it felt.

Luckily, soon the sound of knocking came from the bathroom.

"What's up" she asked.

"Sorry, there's been a bit of a situation at the company and I need to go handle it." He explained through the door, his voice still low and pleasant.

"Okay, please close the door for me."

She replied calmly, and upon hearing it, one could tell it was an excuse. She slept and left, that's how it should be between two strangers.

As soon as the door closed, her phone in the bathroom rang. It was the hospital calling.

"Miss Shu, your mother is missing!"

The caregiver's anxious voice, like a bolt from the blue, shattered the evening's fleeting romance. Reality felt like a sharp blade, slicing her piece by painful piece, leaving her in unbearable agony.

She sprinted downstairs, trying to flag down Zhuo Yu'an's car and ask him to take her to the hospital because it was difficult to hail a cab at this time. His car was slowly driving out of the complex ahead of her, and she ran after it with all her might, waving at him.ing to give to Lu Yaoyao, he sighed: "That little brat called me the other day and cried, saying that a boy had pulled her pigtails and she couldn't beat him up, so she wanted me to go back and help."...
