Marrying into a rich family again, the road to becoming a partner

Lu Yin reached out and rubbed her hair, and said in a very sympathetic tone: "On behalf of myself, I would like to express my deep sympathy for Lawyer Le's experience."

After saying that, he lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Although Le Yun's brows had not yet spread, the corners of her mouth could not help but smile.

"I'm going back to the company first. If I don't come back at noon, I'll ask the hotel to deliver food."

"Okay." Le Yun nodded.

"Don't be too tired." Lu Yinlin warned before going out.

As the front door clicked shut, Le Yun was the only one left in the huge house.

Her mind was still thinking about the phone call just now. After thinking for a moment, she decided to call Chen Zonghan to discuss it first.

Le Yun took a deep breath, picked up her phone, and dialed Chen Zonghan's number.

At this time, Chen Zonghan was holding a fishing rod and concentrating on fishing by the water.

Today was also a rare day for him to take a day off.

The float on the water moved a few times, and Chen Zonghan held his breath, waiting for the fish to bite the hook.At this moment, his cell phone started ringing loudly——

Chen Zonghan was startled. The hand holding the fishing rod shook. He only heard a splash in the water and the fish was frightened away.

He sighed helplessly and pressed the answer button on the Bluetooth headset with a sullen expression:

"I said, I'm going to have a rest today and don't make any phone calls. I'll talk about work matters when I go back to the law firm tomorrow."

Le Yun was shocked by his tone. After arriving at Zonghan Law Firm, Chen Zonghan had never spoken to her with such an attitude.

This made her already confused heart even more nervous and uneasy:

"I'm sorry, senior brother, I'm Le Yun."

When he heard that the caller was Le Yun, Chen Zonghan immediately began to regret his recklessness just now.He immediately softened his tone and said apologetically:

"Le Yun, I'm sorry, I was fishing just now. I thought it was work related..."

"It's okay, it's okay," Le Yun breathed a sigh of relief and her mood relaxed slightly, "I'm just sorry for disturbing your rest."

"It's okay. I'm calling. What's the matter?"

"Oh, it's okay," Le Yun blurted out, but she immediately realized something was wrong and quickly changed her words, "I mean it's possible it's okay."

Le Yun paused, organized her words, and then said:

"I took on a legal aid case before, the one where a man set fire to his wife and lover. Senior brother, do you still remember it?"

"It must be Wu Ruize's case. I have an impression."

"Yes, that's the case. Yesterday I compiled the materials and submitted the appeal."

"Well, is there something wrong with the appeal?" Chen Zonghan asked.

"I don't know if there is a problem," Le Yun said hesitantly. "About five minutes ago, a clerk named Wang from the Court of Appeal called me. He asked me if I had anything to add. Documents to be submitted.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Zonghan immediately put the fishing rod aside, stood up, and walked to a quiet place.His brain was rapidly processing the information Le Yun had just provided.

"Senior brother, brother?"

Seeing that Chen Zonghan didn't reply, Le Yun was a little anxious.

"Now, repeat his original words to me, word for word, from beginning to end." Chen Zonghan said seriously.

His attitude made Le Yun realize the importance of the matter.Naturally, she didn’t dare to neglect:

"Secretary Wang called and said he had received our appeal. He asked me if we had any supplementary documents to submit."

"He took the initiative to bring up the supplementary documents. You never mentioned it, right?"

"No." Le Yun said with certainty, "When I submitted the appeal materials, I didn't say anything about submitting supplementary documents."

"You just said that you received the call this morning."

"That's right," Le Yun nodded, "just a few minutes ago."

"Did he call the law firm?"

"No, he called me directly on my mobile phone."

"This is interesting." Chen Zonghan thought, "According to common sense, if you need to contact someone regarding an appeal, you will directly call the law firm's office phone number."

"Maybe it's because I left a sticky note on the information bag with my mobile phone number written on it." Le Yun thought for a while and said.

Chen Zonghan was a little puzzled.

"I have a day off today, and I was afraid that there would be problems with the appeal materials, so I left my contact information on a sticky note." Le Yun explained.

"He asked you if you had any supplementary materials to submit. How did you reply to him?" Chen Zonghan asked alertly.

"I felt that he might be hinting that I missed something. So I answered that I had a supplementary material to submit, and then I told him that I would call him back later. Senior brother," Le Yun asked with some anxiety, "Is it appropriate for me to do this?"

"Very good, you did a very good job." Chen Zonghan finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Did he tell you when to call him back?"

"He told me to get back to him within an hour."

"Okay," Chen Zonghan raised his wrist to look at his watch, "I will go back to the office immediately to have a meeting with other partners. Take your cell phone, carry it with you at all times and don't miss any calls. Let's keep in touch at any time, okay?"

"Okay." Le Yun nodded.

Chen Zonghan hurriedly packed up his fishing gear, opened the car door, put on his headphones, started the car, and dialed Li Xiao's phone number.

Li Xiao just picked up a piece of chocolate and saw that the caller was Chen Zonghan. He stuffed the chocolate into his mouth, crossed his legs, put it on the desk, and answered the phone:

"What's the matter, boss?" Li Xiao asked lazily: "I thought you rarely rested, so you must have gone fishing and isolated yourself from the world."

"Le Yun just received a call from a clerk of the Court of Appeal." Chen Zonghan said nothing nonsense and went straight to the point. "He asked if there is a supplementary material to be submitted for the appeal we submitted for Wu Ruize's case."

Li Xiao's legs immediately returned to the floor, and he sat upright in the office chair.

"Li Xiao? Are you listening?"

"I'm here," Li Xiao chewed the chocolate in his mouth, "How did Leyun answer?"

"She said that we had a supplementary information to submit and that she would call back later."

"It's Lawyer Le after all. He's really smart." Li Xiao teased a few words, then asked, "Where are you now?"

"I'm on my way back and you're at the law firm?"

"Yes, boss, you are on vacation, I can only take charge of the overall situation at home." As he said that, Li Xiao stuffed another piece of chocolate into his mouth.

"Do you know a clerk named Wang in the Court of Appeal?"

"The surname is Wang?" Li Xiao frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know you. Boss, are you sure he only asked us if we had any additional documents to submit and didn't say anything else?"

"No. However, he said that he would call him back within an hour. I hope Le Yun can get more information out when she calls back."

"Boss, have you ever thought about answering this call yourself?" Li Xiao suggested.

"Absolutely not," Chen Zonghan said without any hesitation:

"If this person was implying that we had missed something, he had already violated the rules. He did not explain what he said because he took a great risk. Instead of calling the law firm, he chose to call Leyun's mobile phone directly. , this shows that he doesn’t want others to know, and the lower profile the better. If I come to make this call, it will scare him away. "

"If he is really hinting at something to us, it means that our appeal may have a chance."

"That's right," Chen Zonghan agreed with his statement, "This may be Wu Ruize's last resort. You go to the prison immediately and keep an eye on Wu Ruize's situation. I'll ask An Daiqing to go to Le Yun."

"Okay, I'll call you when I get there."

"feel free to contact."

The two hung up the phone. .
