poor couple

Sitting in the revolving restaurant of Xiji Hotel, Li Qiong slowly spread a napkin in front of her, picked up the red wine glass and glanced at Sun Peng sitting opposite, took a sip casually, chopped up the steak with a fork and stuffed it into her mouth.

"10." Sun Peng made a cross with two fingers.

"Withdraw the charges against Zhao Weiguo."

"10, three years for Zhao Weiguo." Sun Peng frowned, not wanting to negotiate with Li Qiong at all.

"You've forgotten your priorities, Lawyer Sun." Li Qiong clicked his tongue and tasted the taste of red wine.It looks like an expensive wine, but it doesn't taste very good.She curled her lips slightly, "First of all, all the charges against Zhao Weiguo must be withdrawn. Based on this, we will discuss the issue of compensation. Otherwise, there is nothing to talk about."

"Although you haven't fought many lawsuits, it's not your first day as a lawyer. These are two cases, one for the other. If you use this case as a blackmail, it is obviously a violation of the lawyer's professional ethics Yes." Sun Peng tried his best to look at Li Qiong patiently.

"I don't mind arguing with you in court. The two cases come one by one."

Sun Peng looked at Li Qiong with a wrinkled face, and licked his lips vigorously, "It's really beyond my expectation that you will help Fang Lebin."

Li Qiong snorted and slowly cut the steak.

"Li Qiong," Sun Peng wiped his mouth with a napkin, "Let's put aside official business, let's talk about private matters."

Li Qiong stopped cutting the steak, and Sun Peng's hand crossed the table to hold her hand, "Do you want to try to start again. I admit that I was really obsessed with ghosts a few days ago. There are colorful things outside I watched too much, and I suddenly forgot myself. And I saw Fang Lebin at this moment. The moment I saw Fang Lebin again, I really seemed to find that feeling of first love..., you know that feeling... For people, it always feels good..."

Li Qiong silently withdrew his hand and picked up the chopped steak.

"But in the end, I found that those were all illusions," Sun Peng said with a sigh, "Let's start again, okay. Cut off all the twigs and vines in the past."

Li Qiong looked up at Sun Peng, put down the knife and fork and took a sip from the red wine glass, "What's the condition?"

"What conditions?"

"Lawyer Sun intends to pay, and he must be rewarded."

"You are too... We have been together for three years, and we still have feelings."

"You and Fang Lebin have been together for eight years, if you just give up, you just give up."

Sun Peng was at a loss for words, and Li Qiong lowered his head to cut the steak again.Sun Peng sighed, "You are still so worried about him. Could it be that you helped him win the lawsuit and he promised you to leave here? Let me tell you, that is impossible. His parents are here, so he can't leave .”

"I haven't talked to him about it."

"then you?"

Li Qiong took a sip of water, "I won't budge on the case."

"You..., are you stupid? You won this lawsuit, but you offended Du Lingtao. Do you know that the gain outweighs the loss? You are just starting out in the lawyer profession, and what you need is contacts. Du Lingtao's contacts It's so powerful that you can't even imagine it, you will play yourself to death, do you know it?"

"You said you want to start over with me, why should I worry about the future?"

"I..." Sun Peng looked at Li Qiong dumbfounded.Li Qiong looked up at him without giving an inch, "Withdraw the accusation, all of Zhao Yuanyuan's medical expenses, babysitting expenses, mental damage expenses, and Zhao Weiguo's lost work expenses are 23, not a penny less."

"You are really a righteous lawyer Li." Sun Peng sneered.

"General justice."

"25, there is nothing to discuss about Zhao Weiguo."

"Is Mr. Du obsessed with Zhao Weiguo, or are you obsessed with Zhao Weiguo?" Li Qiong looked at Sun Peng coldly, "When you ran to Fang Lebin affectionately and told Fang Lebin that you wanted to start over, a man appeared beside Fang Lebin People who look down on you, your self-esteem has been hurt, right, Lawyer Sun?"

"What joke are you telling?"

"Restarting this kind of talk, you must have told Fang Lebin. It won't work with Fang Lebin, but with me, I almost believed it. If you are willing to let Zhao Weiguo go, I will definitely believe you." Li Qiong said faintly explain.

Sun Peng smiled coldly, "I can really start over with you."

"So I was beaten back to my original shape and returned to my three-year grave-like married life?" Li Qiong looked at the steak in front of him and put down the knife and fork in his hand, "Du Lingtao didn't ask you to come and talk to me about feelings. I made the conditions on behalf of my client, and if you agree, I will withdraw the lawsuit. If you don’t agree, we will see you in court.”

Sun Peng thumped the table vigorously, threw the knife and fork on the plate and wiped his mouth, "I will pay the bill, you eat slowly."

Li Qiong watched Sun Peng leave, picked up a knife and fork, chopped up all the steaks, and stuffed them into his mouth.Laughed while chewing.

Fang Lebin sat at home anxiously waiting for the call.Li Qiong said that he would negotiate with Sun Peng, and he knew very well that Sun Peng was not a person who would give in easily.He is very worried that Li Qiong will compromise, although Li Qiong has repeatedly emphasized that she will do her best to protect the interests of her client.

Zhao Yuanyuan walked around the house by touching the wall by herself. She could walk alone for a long time, but she was prone to knocking and falling.Fang Lebin took tape and wrapped some foam on the corners of all the tables in the room to prevent Zhao Yuanyuan from knocking his head.When the package was about to arrive, the phone finally rang.Fang Lebin couldn't wait to pick up the phone, "Lawyer Li."

"No wonder you broke up so happily at the beginning, and you were given 5 yuan, and you quickly took over. Later, you chose someone like Zhao Weiguo and didn't choose Sun Peng back." Li Qiong said with a little drunkenness.

"Lawyer Li, what's wrong with you?"

"Well, I'm fine, I drank some red wine and sighed." Li Qiong laughed, "Sun Peng didn't agree to my conditions, but he will eventually agree. Du Lingtao just collapsed a building today, and he has something to do with it A deputy head of the district is double-regulating again. It will not do him any good to make matters worse at this juncture. Don't worry, Zhao Weiguo will come out within ten days."

"Thank you, Lawyer Li." Fang Lebin was finally relieved when he heard what Li Qiong said.

Li Qiong laughed again, with a bit of desolation in his smile, "Sometimes, I really envy you. Although at the beginning, you had the same poor vision as mine. But in the end, you picked a good one. You will never leave, Let's get along with each other."

Fang Lebin sucked his lips for a moment, "Lawyer Li..."

"We'll talk about it tomorrow. I'm going home." Li Qiong hung up the phone happily, laughed a few times at Night Breeze, stood up and took a taxi home slowly.

Fang Lebin looked at the hot phone in his hand and sighed softly.Seeing that Zhao Yuanyuan, who was groping, fell down, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull her up.Zhao Yuanyuan shook off his hand, and continued to walk around the room.
