The part of Shen Heng's mouth where the skin had been bitten off could not be seen after the blood stains were dealt with, except for a sudden sting when it was involved in drinking water and eating.

The next day Jiang Zhiyu went to work early, and Shen Heng took the subway to the law firm by himself.

Qin Shuyi had a lot of cases at hand, and Shen Heng followed a few cases before, so he intentionally let Shen Heng rest. After all, he was still a newcomer, and he was worried that Shen Heng would not be able to bear the high-intensity work like this.

So when Shen Heng went to deliver materials to him early in the morning, he just assigned him some simple retrieval tasks and document writing. Although simple, but a bit complicated, he also specially instructed him to hand them over to himself in a week. .

Shen Heng was clever and dexterous, so he could naturally hear what Qin Shuyi meant, so he readily accepted the task assigned by him.

When eating at noon, He Yue held the plate and stood side by side with Shen Heng in line.The two of them got very close, He Yue poked his head to see what dishes were on offer today, stretched his neck for a long time but didn't see it, so he had to give up, and when he turned his head, he glanced at Shen Heng, he squinted his eyes for a while, and then Scrutinized it carefully for two seconds.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Heng asked, feeling a little strange being stared at by him like this in full view.

"Your mouth is broken?" He Yue's tone was full of doubts: "How do I feel that you are here..." He pointed his finger at the corner of his mouth: "There is a wound."

He Yue is famous for his sharp eyes, Shen Heng smiled helplessly: "Yeah, it's been windy recently, the sky is too dry, and the corner of his mouth was accidentally cracked."

"You can't take good care of yourself just because you look good." He Yue shook his head, with a heartbroken expression on his face: "I still have a few bottles of Vaseline I just bought. Watsons has a discount to buy two and get one free. I will give it to you when I go back later. You take a bottle."

"Okay." Shen Heng laughed.

They stood in line in the crowd, the downstairs restaurant at noon was full of people, because Shen Heng was by his side, He Yue had a rare taste of the joy of not being crowded around.

"By the way, Ah Heng, did you see the WeChat I sent you yesterday? Why didn't you reply? I've been waiting for a long time." He Yue picked up a spoon to fill himself with sweet and sour ribs, and followed Shen without raising his head. When Heng spoke, he didn't notice the flashing expression on Shen Heng's face.

"Let me tell you, although the room is a little smaller than the one you lived in before, it is very clean and more than enough for one person. It has two floors. The upper floor is used for sleeping, and the lower floor can be used as a small living room. Use." He Yue chattered: "You can directly look at the photos on my mobile phone later, and I also took a few short videos for you."

"No need." Shen Heng poured a spoonful of tomato fish ball soup for himself, found a place to sit with He Yue, and He Yue was taken aback: "What?"

"I've worked hard on you for the past two days. I thought about it and decided not to move." Shen Heng's tone was a little apologetic: "I'll treat you to dinner later, and you apologize to the landlord on my behalf, saying that I won't rent anymore .”

"It's not a big deal." He Yue waved his hand generously and said with a smile, "But if you want to invite me to dinner, it's not impossible."

"Okay, you set a time." Shen Heng agreed very neatly.

One side of He Yue's cheek was bulging, he spat out a mouthful of bone, wiped his mouth: "No hurry, isn't your birthday this Friday, we'll talk about it then."

"The third one said that they missed you before, so I was thinking about whether to call them over on your birthday and have a meal and have fun together. Isn't the case in your hand finished? My two bankrupt liquidators The day will be over, let's go and relax, what do you think?"

Shen Heng hesitated for a moment, he was afraid that if Jiang Zhiyu got off work early that day and waited for him at home, he would get impatient if he couldn't wait for half a day.But it shouldn't take long just to have a meal with friends. If they still want to take themselves out all night, just find a suitable reason to refuse.

"Yes, this Friday?" Shen Heng asked softly.

"Well, yes." He Yue nodded: "I know you don't like crowds, so I'll tell us a few college students to play well, and everyone else won't."

When He Yue said this, he seemed to think of something, and suddenly he laughed: "Do you want to bring your family?"

Shen Heng was startled, then glanced at him, and smiled: "No."

"Hmm, hahaha." He Yue almost choked on a sip of tea, but still insisted on saying, "I can tell from your expression that you haven't had any trouble with Jiang Zhiyu, you sent me a WeChat message a few days ago and asked me to help you find a house At that time, I thought there was some emotional rift between you and him and we were going to break up, but I didn't dare to ask, tsk, knowing that you are doing well, brother, I am relieved."

He squinted his eyes benevolently, and wanted to touch Shen Heng's hair, but Shen Heng raised his arm and blocked it: "Eat your meal."

"Okay, okay." He Yue lowered his head and took a few bites of meat, "Okay, let's go back."

The days seemed to go smoothly.

As he said, Jiang Zhiyu did not return to the apartment for the past few days, and Shen Heng would send him a WeChat message on time every day when he got off work, telling him what he was doing.

In the middle, Jiang Zhiyu only replied to him once, and when Shen Heng said that he would go to the court to look for files in the evening and return home later, he replied lightly that he knew.

At that time, he was sitting face to face with Jiang Zhici and drinking. After Jiang Zhici came back from abroad, he unexpectedly did not interfere with anything in the family company. His career abroad was relatively stable, and he returned to China just to take a look. The family gets married.

He has no business acumen since he was a child, and he is not as good as Jiang Zhiyu in this respect, so he only took over a small company, and he has no restrictions abroad, and now he is living comfortably.

"The little duck you raised is looking for you?" Seeing Jiang Zhiyu bowing his head and typing seriously, Jiang Zhici laughed teasingly.

Jiang Zhiyu ignored him, and after replying to the message, he threw the phone aside, looking away at the glittering night scene outside the window: "He's not a duck."

"Oh, that's your little lover." Jiang Zhici took a sip of his wine: "Do you have a photo?"

"No."

"It's rare to see you care so much about people." Jiang Zhici was slightly drunk, half-squinting his eyes and staring at his younger brother who was three years younger than himself.

Before he went abroad, Jiang Zhiyu was still surrounded by frivolity and arrogance. When he came back this time, he already had the temperament of a mature man between his eyebrows. A posture thousands of miles away.

"Well, clingy." Jiang Zhiyu replied casually.

"Clingy? Then when you dump him, will he cause trouble?" Jiang Zhici frowned imperceptibly: "Like this, it will be less troublesome if you break it earlier."

"Let's talk about it." Jiang Zhiyu avoided talking about it. For some reason, as long as he thinks about when he will be separated from Shen Heng, it is difficult to suppress the irritable thoughts in his heart that are so bored that they are about to overflow.

He slowly drank the remaining clear liquid in the glass, put down the glass and stood up, standing by the window, watching the bright lights outside the window.

The 45th floor is the best angle for people indoors to overlook the scenery of the city. People who can stand here have always had the capital to be aloof and supercilious.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhici knew that he had been struck by thunder, so he stopped talking, stood up from the wine cabinet silently, and left the bar.

...

Shen Heng went to find Qin Shuyi on Friday morning.

Qin Shuyi gave him the task to be completed within a week, and he finished it two days ago. Jiang Zhiyu is not at home these days, so he has a lot of free time in the evening, working in the upstairs study for a while, and then going to take a shower You can sleep peacefully.

But Qin Shuyi was not in the office, Shen Heng knocked on the door a few times, but didn't hear anything, and then heard someone calling himself not far behind.

"Lawyer Xiao Shen, are you looking for Qin Lu?" It was a cute girl at the front desk of their law firm, who had two small canine teeth when she smiled.

"Well, yes, isn't he here?" Shen Heng turned to look at her.

"That's right, Qin Lv has a client to meet with this morning, and he will guard all the parties' meetings in the afternoon, so he probably won't be in the law firm all day." The front desk smiled: "Are you in a hurry to find him? You can send an email Or call him."

"It's nothing urgent, I just have some materials to hand in, and I can do it next week, thank you." Shen Heng smiled at her lightly, and the receptionist's eyes widened in amazement by the smile, but she was well-informed, and soon Then he made up his mind: "You're welcome, you're welcome, I'm leaving first."

Back in his seat, Shen Heng found out the case documents of the court trial that he and Qin Shuyi participated in before.

The closing statement that had been embellished by Qin Shuyi really surprised him when it was read out in court, and now that he was free, he wanted to read it out and study again.

"Hey, Ah Heng, a well-packed person passed by just now, and there was a beautiful woman by his side."

Shen Heng was emphasizing a passage that he was not familiar with, when he heard He Yue's voice from the side.

"Oh." He didn't even move his eyes.

"What kind of person are you talking about, so that you can come to the law firm dressed as if you are going to rob a bank." He Yue rubbed his chin with an inscrutable expression on his face: "I suspect that he is a suspect in a certain case."

"You have watched too many movies." Shen Heng turned his head and glanced at him: "Where is the criminal suspect not being arrested, but can he come out to find a lawyer by himself?"

"Hmph, why can't I just fantasize about it... Hey! Xiaoxue, why are you here?" He Yue's voice suddenly changed to a cheerful tone.

Before Shen Heng had time to react, he heard the receptionist named Xiaoxue calling his name in an embarrassing tone.

"Let me find Lawyer Xiao Shen..."

As soon as Shen Heng turned his head, he saw the distressed expression on Xiaoxue's lovely face: "What's wrong?" He asked.

"Just now... well, a client of Qin Lu came here suddenly today without an appointment. I told them that you can't come in without an appointment, but they didn't agree to go back. I persuaded them for a long time, but they appointed... want you to go See them in the reception room." Xiaoxue said in a difficult tone.

"Me?" Shen Heng frowned, feeling an indescribably strange feeling.

"Yes, Lawyer Shen, look at this..." Xiaoxue was on the verge of crying.

"Where are they?" Shen Heng gave her a comforting look: "I'll go."

"It's in the reception room. I'll take you there." Xiaoxue's eyes lit up and she breathed a sigh of relief.

If a client like this who comes in without an appointment makes trouble, the first person to be punished is the receptionist who didn't intercept her well.She had only graduated from university not long ago, and if she lost her job, it would be tantamount to killing her.

Shen Heng nodded, got up and followed Xiaoxue to the second floor.

There are several reception rooms on the second floor, and the sound insulation effect between them is very good, and they are all one-way glass doors, which provide high privacy.

"It's here." Xiaoxue pointed to the innermost room, and bowed to Shen Heng: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It's okay, you go back first, if they really have something urgent, I will tell Qin Lv."

"Thank you, thank you." Xiaoxue thanked in a hurry, turned and left upstairs in a hurry.

Shen Heng exhaled lightly. If he counted seriously, this should be the first time he faced the client alone. He reached out and knocked politely on the door.

"Come in." It was a mature female voice.

Shen Heng opened the door and went in. The reception room was not big, with a few sofas and a low mahogany table in the middle, which was clean and comfortable.

"Hello, I am…"

In the middle of Shen Heng's words, the woman in a white professional suit interrupted him.

"Hello, Lawyer Shen, this is Qin Lu's client." She took a step back to the side, revealing a man who was sitting lazily on the sofa behind him, wearing a long black coat, so delicate and beautiful that it made people's eyes shine .

"Hello." He threw the sunglasses he was playing with on the table, stood up with a smile, and stretched out his hand to Shen Heng: "My name is Yu Xiao."
