Chapter 1956. I’m Sorry, I Can’t Come to Pick You up
Of course I do. Xuan Yuang chuckled. But hes not from Xia City. I just entered Xia City, and I hope that thewyer is local. Its easier to settle things. After all, hes a foreigner.
You trust me so much? An Lan understood his point, and she also thought that his concerns were reasonable.
Ive heard some stuff about you. Youre the money-snatching Lawyer An, Xuan Yuang said teasingly. I admire people who love money as much as I do. People like you are very capable.
An Lan smiled and said, alright, lets have lunch together tomorrow.
At noon the next day, the two of them arranged to meet at a high-end Western restaurant nearby. It was open-air, and outside was Victoria Harbor, which gave them a wide view.
An Lan listened to Xuan Yuang talk about his new project in Xia City. She couldnt help but to be amazed by the foresight of people like Nian Junting and Xuan Yuang, who were always at the forefront of others. They werent predicting the future development of the market, instead, they were driving the direction of the market.
Arent you afraid that Ill tell Mr Nian about your project when I get back? An Lan said half-jokingly.
You definitely have work ethics, Xuan Yuang said with a half-smile while holding a ss of red wine. Unless you dont want to work in this industry anymore.
Youre so ruthless. Im your junior after all, An Lan sighed lightly.
Not when you decided to betray me, Xuan Yuang picked up his knife and fork, his gaze was sharp. But you wont. Based on my understanding of Nian Junting, hes not interested in these projects. Besides, I wont let you be responsible for some confidential agreements and contracts. Those are all drawn up by my legal consultant. You only need to be responsible for setting up thepany system, preventing and resolving some legal risks and problems with thebor contract. Of course, if there are some negotiations and disputes involved, you need to step up.
I cant do it alone. I need to bring myw firm with me, An Lan said, after all, your project is quite big.
Deal.
Xuan Yuang clinked sses with her and said, Ill see you in Xia City.
An Lan was in a good mood during the meal. After she went back, she called Li Yuchen and told him about it. Li Yuchen was overjoyed, Tsk, tsk, An, youre really my God of Wealth. I didnt expect you to not only know Nian Junting, but also connect with Xuan Yuang. Once this project is done, hell definitely work with us again. I knew that I could get abalone if I work with you
Stop, An Lan said rudely. If you really think that you can get abalone by working with me, then dont be Xu Baohans spy, okay? You were the one who tipped him off about the flowersst time.
Dont say that. Chief Judge Xu will be your husband sooner orter, Li Yuchen chuckled. Im trying to build a good rtionship with your future hubby in advance. Besides, Im doing this so that your rtionship wont be misunderstood.
Forget it. An Lan didnt want to talk about him anymore.
In the afternoon, the group took a ne back to Xia city.
Before boarding the ne, An Lan and Xu Baohan had a phone call. In the court, Xu Baohan was preparing for a trial. When he received the call, he was helpless. An Lan, Im sorry, I cante to pick you up.
Sometimes, as a judge, he was really helpless. Unlike other public servants who could leave after taking a leave of absence. He basically had an open a court session every day, so he couldnt take a leave of absence.
It doesnt matter. In the afternoon, you can just leave work on time and cook the dishes that I like to eat, An Lan said with a smile. Im tired of eating the delicacies in Hong Kong every day. I kind of miss your simple meals.
