Chapter 623. Miss An, You Like Him Too, Don''t You?
Then again, Mr. Nian is such a capable and resourceful man, but he actually lost to that olddy Jiang Qifei. Whos behind that woman? asked Yan Su in disbelief.
I want to know, too. Shes ahead of us in many ways. I guess that poor and pitiful face of hers is only a mask that she wears. Luosang nodded. There must be a strong force behind her. I wonder whom she has hooked up with. Today, she was driving a car that is worth over a million, and her outfits are worth tens of thousands. She was also wearing a Patek Philippe today.
Her ex-husband works in the army. He cant have that much money to give her. Shes definitely with some other man, Yan Su agreed. She cheated on her husband when they were still married, so I doubt that shes ever been single since she got divorced.
Lets stop talking about this. The more we talk, the uneasier I am. Luosang buried her head in her hands.
Yan Su looked at her without knowing what to say. It was indeed a troublesome thing that had happened to Luosang. Sadly, she wasnt capable enough to help her.
That night, Luosang could barely sleep. At eight oclock in the morning, she took a taxi to An Lansw firm. At ten to nine, An Lan came to work. Seeing Luosang sitting on the stairs in front of herw firm, she was surprised. Miss Xu, what brings you here?
I want to ask some questions about my fathers case, said Luosang.
Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, An Lan nodded, then opened the door and let her in. Mr. Nian didnt tell me that youd be here.
I didnt let him know. I came here by myself.
An Lan nced at her and asked, You looked finest time. Why do you seem so anxious today?
There are some questions that I cant ask in front of Junting. I want you to tell me, as an experiencedwyer, do we have a chance of reversing my fathers verdict? Luosang looked her in the eyes. Seeing An Lan blink, her heart almost sank.
An Lan didnt respond but walked into her office and poured Luosang a cup of warm tea. After that, she said, Miss Xu, to be honest, if I hadnt worked with Mr. Nian for so many years, I wouldnt have taken this case. I was engaged in many other cases, but none of them was under as much scrutiny as your fathers. Once the court session is opened, the media from the whole country will use me of taking a bribe, because I will be defending a molester. Once we start, Ill be going against the entire society. Only on the day I clear your fathers name can I regain my reputation. If I fail, Ill lose all my prestige as awyer.
Luosang fell into silence.
I get it. When my father first went to prison, I went to everyw firm that I could find to ask for thosewyers help. As a result, they kicked me out once I mentioned it, said Luosang.
Ill try my best in your fathers case. However, I can be honest with you. Without solid evidence, we might not even have an opportunity for appeal. Earlier, Mr. Nian was there, so I couldnt just tell you this honestly. In fact, he knows about it clearly. Hes frustrated, too. I guess no one ever thought that Zeng Lijuan would die.
I am really jealous of you. An Lan looked at Luosang and continued, Mr. Nian is so nice to you.
Miss An, you like him too, dont you?
Yeah, I do. But I know him. If he liked me back, hed have let me know long ago. If I go after him, I might even lose my chance to be partners with him. An Lan paused for a few seconds, then nodded frankly. Thankfully, the woman he likes isnt a bad person. Youre that caregiver, arent you? Last year, if you hadnt pointed out that mistake, I might have caused him to lose hundreds of millions.
