Chapter 181 The Malignant Tumor of Law Firms
"Sorry, I'm already married. I guess you guys are still single, but that's normal, considering how ugly you look and how you can't even speak human language." The girl retorted without any politeness.
"You!" The boy angrily raised his hand, wanting to swing it, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Try using your hands." Lin Xi grabbed his hand and looked at them coldly.
The girl stared at Lin Xi, who had suddenly appeared before her.
So handsome! He makes me feel so safe.
The boy tried desperately to shake off her hand, but found it wouldn't budge. He got angry and shouted, "What are you trying to do in broad daylight?"
Soon, several men in formal attire appeared. The man at the front was quite handsome. He slowly spoke, "Young Miss, what are your orders?"
"Deal with these people. They publicly slandered and spread rumors and even tried to assault others." As she spoke, Lin Xi gestured with her eyes to the photographer who was still harassing Yunzhi in front of her. "That person harassed her in the street, refused her multiple times without success, and then resorted to slander and threats."
The lawyer quickly led a team to the scene.
Lin Xi turned to look at Yan Ziqi, smiling as if nothing had happened, and asked, "Why did you come by yourself? Is the company very quiet?"
"It's been a long time since I've seen the big boss, so I came over to show my face. Otherwise, everyone would have forgotten about me," Yan Ziqi replied nonchalantly.
"How could that be? Even if you hadn't come, I would have come to see you these past two days."
"Really?" Yan Ziqi's tone was noticeably higher.
[Yan Ziqi's favorability +3]
"Hmm, how's my sister doing lately?"
"Her situation lately... I don't really know much about her. I originally planned to assign her as my assistant, but she refused, insisting on starting from the bottom. She also wouldn't let me reveal that we know each other, so..."
Lin Xi nodded, "Okay, since you're here, come shopping with us. I'll go with you to take a look."
"It's my honor." Yan Ziqi stared at her, the corners of his lips gradually curving upwards.
"Thank you for speaking up for me just now, but the most important thing when you're out in the future is to protect yourself, okay? Otherwise, you can easily run into danger." Lin Xi then turned her gaze to the girl who was staring blankly at her and said gently.
[Yan Ziqi's favorability +2]
"Okay...okay...Miss, you're so beautiful! Can I...take a picture with you?" The girl, who had been so quick-witted just moments before, stammered as she looked at Lin Xi expectantly.
"Of course!" Lin Xi said, squatting down so the two of them were close together, and a photo of them together was created.
The girl looked at the stunningly beautiful face on her phone and couldn't help but giggle, "Thank you."
"Xixi, you scared me to death! You just rushed over like that, I didn't even see you clearly, and you were gone." Yunzhi said, looking at her, still shaken.
"I'm fine, I'm very agile. I found a handsome guy to carry our things. Let's go."
Yunzhi glanced at Yan Ziqi standing beside her and generously extended her hand, "Yunzhi."
"Yan Ziqi," Yan Ziqi said in a slightly cold voice, his expression indifferent.
"Yan Ziqi? That big star in the legal world?" Yun Zhi asked in surprise, and noticing the gazes around her, she lowered her voice.
“If there are no duplicate names, it should be me,” Yan Ziqi said methodically.
Looking at his polite yet distant expression, Yunzhi felt bored. She walked to the other side, put her arm around Lin Xi's arm, and complained as she walked, "This Yan Lu is really not easy to get along with."
Lin Xi looked at the man next to her with suspicion, and just then she met his eyes crinkling and his lips curving into a smile.
"no."
Upon hearing this, Yunzhi looked over again.
Goodness, he still has that calm expression. This guy must be a master of face-changing.
She tightened her grip on Lin Xi's hand, a satisfied smile playing on her lips. Sure enough, her Xi Xi was still the most fragrant and soft.
After everyone finished their shopping spree, Lin Xi and Yun Zhi parted ways and went to the law firm with Yan Ziqi.
"Hey, new guy, could you print this document for me?"
"Could you help me organize this? I need it quickly, it's urgent."
"Hey you, go downstairs and buy us a coffee. We have a meeting later."
"Oh dear, what's that new guy's name again? Why is he taking so long to buy a coffee?"
"You guys be careful, this was arranged by the boss himself."
"I think it's probably just a coincidence. If there were really connections, how could someone be placed at the grassroots level?"
"That's true. We treated her like this, but she didn't say a word. The boss even came over to take a look."
Just then, a hurried footstep sounded, and Lin Yue's hands and arms were covered with coffee bags.
"Why are you so slow? If you delay the meeting, can you take responsibility?" the man complained as he took the coffee.
The others also looked at her with disdain.
"Let's go, Yuan Li, don't argue with her, or it will cause trouble."
Lin Yue followed her inside.
"Why are you going in? You don't know anything, don't go in and cause trouble," Yuan Li said disdainfully.
"I can learn if I don't know how. Didn't you say I'd go in for the meeting after I bought the coffee?" Lin Yue was getting angry. She thought that if she did more, everyone would recognize her and she could truly integrate into the group. She didn't expect these people to become even more unreasonable.
"What kind of look is that? Newcomers should behave themselves, you'll learn later." Yuan Li looked at her delicate features, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes.
"You've been saying this for almost half a month now, do you even believe it yourselves? Do you really think I'm a pushover?" Lin Yue looked at their faces and was instantly filled with anger. Sure enough, not everyone is human; they treated her help a few days ago like feeding dogs.
"Oh my, this softie can actually get angry, that's rare."
"Hahaha, indeed, this is the first time I've heard her so angry, it's quite amusing."
"Do you think she might actually have powerful connections?" someone nearby asked worriedly.
"That shouldn't be possible. If they had powerful connections, they would have brought it up long ago. Why would they be working so hard for us?" Yuan Li said with disbelief and disdain.
"That's true, hahaha."
"Lin Yue, you're wasting everyone's time. Believe me or not, I'll fire you. You're just a single mother; you should be grateful for a job running errands. Why are you being so picky?" At this moment, the supervisor also came out and spoke directly to Lin Yue without even asking what happened.
"Yeah, she probably wasn't a good person either, otherwise why would it have come to the point of divorce?"
"Yes."
Hearing E'du's words, Lin Yue laughed angrily, "You all work in a law firm, don't you know that you have to provide evidence when you speak? Having lawyers like you is really a disgrace to the law firm."
"You... I didn't say anything, why are you reacting so strongly?" The man's momentum instantly weakened, and he said somewhat guiltily.
"Why should we be afraid of a newcomer like her? Does she think she can fire us? That's ridiculous."
