Chapter 1770. Chief Judge Xu Had His Kind Side
Xu Baohans gaze paused on her for two seconds before he said, There are nowyers or prosecutors, then theres no need for judges to exist. They all work for thew, theres nothing to hate or dislike.
An Lan listened to his indifferent and magnanimous words and suddenly remembered the case she lost a few days ago. She had even secretly scolded him in the toilet, which indeed made her seem narrow-minded.
Im sorry about Lin Haos casest time An Lan sincerely apologized. The incident with Sun Xiaoxiao had allowed her to see Xu Baohans soft side.
Xu Baohan pursed his lips. Whats the point of having the police if apology works? If you really feel apologetic, then treat me to a meal.
An Lan almost wanted to pick her ears, was he shameless? She was merely apologizing out of emotion, but he actually shamelessly climbed asked her to treat him to a meal.
Her emotion just now must be due to her short-circuited brain.
Chief Judge Xu, I remember I just treated you thest time, An Lan said through gritted teeth. You cant always rely on me to treat you to a meal just because you are renovating your house and you need to save money.
Xu Baohan looked at her calmly. I just feel that the word sorry is useless. It cant be treated as a meal. I think its more practical to eat.
I refuse, An Lan said without hesitation. To you, the word sorry is very simple. Its just moving your lips, but to me, its a huge amount of courage. It represents my sincerity, so I definitely wont treat you to a meal again.
Xu Baohans eye brows were deeply furrowed.
Did she think that what he wanted was that meal? Wasnt it just to find an excuse to get to know each other better.
Oh yes, Sun Xiaoxiao fell ill because the murderer didnt get a sentence after her parents died? An Lan changed the topic.
Yes.
As she didnt agree to that meal, Xu Baohans eyes darkened. She was initially agitated when she saw her parents tragic death. At that time, the police suggested that she receive psychological treatment, but because she had to appear in court, she had to recall that painful experience over and over again. In addition, the murderer was released in court, she couldnt ept it
An Lan was dejected. If it was her, she would probably be so mad that she wanted to die. She must have hated you very much.
Xu Baohan nodded. She didnt have the chance to hate me. After the case was over, she went crazy.
An Lan felt a strong sense of sadness.
Xu Baohan continued, At first, she was in the countys mental hospital, but the conditions there werent good. After I transferred to Xia City, I brought her here as well. After her parents died, she did have rtives, but none of them was willing to ept a person like her who was mentally ill.
An Lan understood that mental illness was really scary. Sometimes, they would even do harm to others. I cant tell that Chief Judge Xu has a kind heart, too.
Youre thinking too much. Xu Baohan didnt seem to like others saying that he had a kind heart. I just feel that this case was handled by me, so Im responsible.
Youre not responsible, youre just following the rules. An Lan smiled as she looked up at him. Youre just kind-hearted.
Her eyes were clear and bright.
Xu Baohan felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness from her stare, his ears were also burning.
This was his first time he was praised for being kind-hearted. He had seen too many people pointing their noses at him and calling him Cold-blooded and heartless, including his most important family members.
An Lan, you dont understand me, he said coldly and slowly.
