Gu Wei's words completely ignited the hope in Lu's mother's heart.

Financial Building? It sounds like a wealthy building!

And it’s so impressive? Then you must be making a fortune!

So Mother Lu casually said a few words of thanks, and finally said:

"Hey, Mingjun is just not as considerate as Xiaoqing. When you have time, pay more attention to Xiaoqing. This child has lost her mother since she was young, it's not easy for her!"

Only then did he hang up the phone with satisfaction and turned around to report the latest progress to Zhu Qing.

Although Gu Wei agreed repeatedly on the other end of the phone, he felt helpless about what Lu's mother said.

If it weren't for Mother Lu, how could Zhu Qing have come between him and Lu Mingjun?

After hanging up the phone, Gu Wei sat in the office, with thousands of thoughts churning in his mind.

He leaned back in his chair, turned his head and looked out the window, and the memories hidden in his mind popped out one by one.

Gu Wei couldn't help but sneer. It was so rare to see such a confused person!

To be precise, he and Lu Mingjun have been classmates since junior high school.

Plus, they were both good students, so the two of them became a little closer.

Thinking of those days, a smile appeared on Gu Wei's face.

How happy they were back then, going to school together and going home together. Young boys and girls always had countless things to say and endless dreams and secrets to share.

The two of them had such a tacit understanding that they even got into the same high school, the same university, and even chose the same major.

The only disagreement was three years ago.

At that time, Lu Mingjun chose to continue his postgraduate studies, while Gu Wei chose a law firm with a good reputation in W City after graduating from college and started his professional career.

However, naive men and women always think that three years later, they will be able to move forward together again.

Even the parents of both sides maintain good communication tacitly and are in sync with each other regarding the affairs of their two children.

Until one day, when Gu Wei entered the Zhu family with a bunch of strong red roses, he was noticed by Zhu Qing, who was still in high school and just beginning to fall in love.

Thinking of this, a hint of pride appeared on his face that he was not even aware of.

And from there, things started to get interesting.

The Zhu couple often talked about Lu Mingjun's bad things in front of the Gu family, and repeatedly praised Zhu Qing's good points.

This move immediately made Gu's parents want to back off. After all, not having the help of the Yue family was one thing; but having a Yue family that was a drag was another.

Thinking of this, Gu Wei shook his head again, and he suddenly understood Lu Mingjun's choice.

At least, if a person goes to S City, thousands of miles away to practice law and stays away from his biased family, he will feel more comfortable!

However, Gu Wei still felt a little uncomfortable.

He even couldn't help but wonder, has Lu Mingjun also given up on him?

At this moment, Gu Wei's phone rang again. It was Zhu Qing calling. He hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call.

"Brother Gu Wei, Auntie just told me that you know where my sister works." Zhu Qing's voice was nasal, as if she had just cried. "Could it be that you are still in touch?"

Without waiting for Gu Wei to answer, Zhu Qing continued, "But you clearly promised my father that you would take good care of me! I'm not as good as my sister, and I'm not liked by so many men..."

Before Zhu Qing could finish, Gu Wei interrupted her. With a gentleness that he himself did not realize, he gently comforted her: "No, Qingqing, I saw it in the group of my former classmates."

As soon as Gu Wei finished speaking, Zhu Qing's mood on the other end of the phone obviously improved a lot: "I knew that Brother Gu Wei would not be like other men who only like me! Brother Gu Wei is the best!"

Zhu Qing's voice flowed in Gu Wei's ears like a clear spring, making him feel warm.

He sighed softly, but in his heart he was sighing: Xiaojun, why can't you be as cute and innocent as your sister?

However, at this moment, Gu Wei obviously could not accept Zhu Qing: "Qingqing, you misunderstood."

Gu Wei tried to explain: "You are like a sister to me. I will take good care of you like I would take care of my own sister!"

There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment, and then Zhu Qing's voice sounded again, but it was obviously choked up: "I know, Brother Gu Wei. But... I don't want to be your sister! I will wait for you, until you discover my goodness."

Gu Wei felt mixed emotions and he didn't know how to respond to Zhu Qing's words.

In his impression, Zhu Qing was a kind and persistent girl. How could he hurt such a pure and kind girl?

After hanging up the phone, Gu Wei fell into deep thought again. His unfocused eyes made it hard to imagine that this rising star in the legal world of W City would actually be indecisive.

Just then, Gu Wei's assistant came in with a document in his hand: "Lawyer Gu, this is the information about the case you mentioned before. I have sorted it out."

Gu Wei raised his head, reached out to take the document, but said to himself in his heart: I will go to S City to see Xiaojun after he finishes this case!

Gu Wei, who was working hard, had no idea that Lu Mingjun, who was far away in S City, was laughing and playing with his new acquaintance Jin Xuejiao.

At this moment, Lu Mingjun's face was filled with the brightness and charm that only belonged to a young girl.

As soon as Jin Xuejiao saw Lu Mingjun, she complained, "I called you and found that your phone was always turned off. If you hadn't contacted me via WeChat, I would never have been able to find you! What's wrong? Are you hiding from your debts?"

Lu Mingjun felt amused when he heard this. Isn't he just avoiding debt?

However, she calmly pulled Jin Xuejiao over and smiled apologetically: "Nothing, someone is bothering me."

Jin Xuejiao was a person with a good sense of propriety. Seeing that Lu Mingjun was unwilling to say anything, she stopped asking.

Seeing this, Lu Mingjun also breathed a sigh of relief. Even if it was just a friend, she didn't want to pass on her negative emotions to others.

The two of them walked to the door of a Starbucks and sat down. Jin Xuejiao said to Lu Mingjun, "I'm here to introduce the case to you today!"

Lu Mingjun raised his eyebrows: "Tell me about it!"

Jin Xuejiao shook her head and said, "Wait for my colleague to come over and let her tell you in person! It's very simple anyway, it's a divorce case."

Jin Xuejiao opened her mouth and started talking.

It turned out that she was a female colleague of Jin Xuejiao, a native of S City and the only daughter in the family.

There are some families in S City who are well-off. If they have only one daughter, they are generally unwilling to marry her off. Instead, they will discuss with the man whether they can recruit a son-in-law.

Coincidentally, Jin Xuejiao's colleague was looking for a son-in-law.

However, when the matter was done, the man regretted it!

Jin Xuejiao sighed repeatedly, then waved her hands in a mature manner: "Oh, that's really a mess, there's no way to settle it! So..."

At this point, Jin Xuejiao took Lu Mingjun's hand, as if she had become someone else's life mentor, and said earnestly:

"Xiaojun, I'm telling you as someone who has been through this, it's better to be single for the rest of your life than to just marry a scumbag!"

Lu Mingjun was amused by Jin Xuejiao's behavior. "Comrade Xiaoxue, who has rich life experience, please rest assured. I will handle it carefully!"

The two of them started giggling happily again. Lu Mingjun felt that she had laughed more in the past two days than in the past twenty years.

Just as the two were talking, a girl wearing a silk cheongsam and a top-quality imperial green bracelet on her hand walked over from a distance.

The girl greeted Jin Xuejiao, smiled at Lu Mingjun, and sat down.

Jin Xuejiao hurriedly introduced: "Xiaojun, this is my colleague, her last name is Chen, and her name is Chen Yan."

"Yan'er, this is my good sister, Lu Mingjun! Xiaojun is from the New Star Law Firm. You know, that firm has very good performance!"

Chen Yan looked like a gentle and lovely woman. Lu Mingjun couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Some men really don't know how to appreciate the blessings they have!

Lu Mingjun's memories came from a distant past life: just like the man who almost became her brother-in-law...
