The girl at the front desk widened her eyes when she said "five digits". When she heard the "six digits", she swallowed nervously.

"Can you do it?" Xu Qiao came to such a place alone for the first time. In fact, he felt a little relieved, so he had to strengthen his voice, "If you have money, you can make the devil push the mill", and said, "If it doesn't work, I'll change to another family."

"Sorry, Miss, today is Sunday, and it's close to get off work time..." Seeing that she was about to turn around and leave, the girl at the front desk hurriedly called her, "Wait, I'm just explaining to you that there may not be a lawyer who can receive you immediately, but I will make arrangements for you as soon as possible."

Xu Qiao leaned against the edge of the front desk cabinet, watched her pick up the landline receiver, and reminded her: "You need the most professional lawyer."

The little girl nodded, probably shocked by Xu Qiao's aura of not being short of money. The voice of the phone was trembling: "Ah? Is Xu Lu? But Xu Lu is just here to be a guest at the branch office. Maybe he should bother him, and is he not accepting such ordinary people..." She said this and did not dare to say that the six-digit consultation was "ordinary", "Oh, it's great that he has time, so I'll invite someone to the reception room."

The little sister hung up the phone and said with a smile: "Miss, our partner at the Hangzhou headquarters happened to be in the institute today. This lawyer's professional ability is very well-known in the industry. I think it can meet your needs."

Xu Qiao made a "ok" gesture and walked into the reception room with her and sat down in the guest seat on the sofa.

Five minutes later, the glass door of the reception room was knocked lightly twice, and a young male voice rang out: "Hello."

Xu Qiao turned her head and glanced at someone through her sunglasses.

If you have suits and ties, elite temperament, and judge people by their appearance, your professional ability should be really strong.

But these gold-rimmed glasses...

She knew that she shouldn't use glasses to kill someone. But Cheng Lang's image of "waiting for the back and smiling" today really put a shadow on her, so that she had some prejudice against gold-rimmed glasses that were equivalent to cunning.

During her moment of excavation, the other party had already sat down on the main seat of the sofa and handed her a business card: "My surname is Xu, what do you call you?"

"My surname is Yu." Xu Qiao took the business card and glanced at the three words "Xu Huaisong" above - he actually had a life of water!

"Miss Yu, I have a general understanding of your situation from the front desk. If it is convenient, I think we will start to pass the contract directly?"

Xu Qiao handed over the contract.

Xu Huaisong turned a few pages roughly: "It will take me about thirty minutes."

Xu Qiao nodded: "You can watch it for a while, don't save me money."

The reception room was silent, leaving only the rustling sound of paper turning over from time to time.

Xu Qiao picked up his phone boredly, browsed his WeChat Moments for a while, but didn't know what he saw, but he seemed to suddenly lose interest, and turned to lean on the sofa to close his eyes and rest.

As soon as the eyes were closed, she took a nap without realizing it. Her consciousness gradually became chaotic until she was awakened by the sound of "Miss Yu".

Xu Qiao opened her eyes and glanced at the clock on the opposite wall.

It's just thirty minutes, so awesome?

"Miss Yu," Xu Huaisong returned the contract to her, "I have finished reading the contract. What's the question you want to ask?"

"Is there any inequality in this contract..."

A vibrating cell phone interrupted her.

Xu Huaisong raised his hand to signal and wait, looked at the caller ID, stood up and said, "Sorry, I need to answer a call."

Xu Qiao looked alert.

Cheng Lang's powerful methods made her feel guarded against the call she called at this critical moment.

She called Xu Huaisong: "You can pick it up here."

Xu Huaisong looked at her and seemed to want to say something, but probably heard from the front desk that the client's style was about. It was better to have more things than to do more. He didn't plan to negotiate with her more, so he answered the phone: "What's wrong?"

Xu Qiao raised her ears.

The sound on the other end of the phone was hard to hear, but the lawyer was as gentle as if he had changed his tone, which made her feel that she might have thought it was wrong.

"I'm still in the branch in the North City."

"It's time to go, you won't miss the opportunity."

He smiled as if no one else was around: "Who gave you the courage to watch horror movies when I was away?"

"Don't worry, you will definitely be here before going to bed. You turned on the lights at home and wait for me."

Xu Qiao: "..."

What kind of evil did she commit? Can she be stuffed with a mouthful of dog food in a law firm?

And she asked for this dog food, which she rushed to eat!

"I'll just eat airplane meals, no need to make midnight snacks. Well, you hang up first." Xu Huaisong ended the call.

Xu Qiao's eyes behind her sunglasses were already shining with tears.

What's going on? They can also wear gold-rimmed glasses, but Cheng Lang wants to take the route of robbing his wife like a woman?

"Sorry," Xu Huaisong put away his smile, sat back on his original position, and made a gesture, "You can continue."

Xu Qiao sniffed: "Oh."

"I just talked about the unequal clauses. This contract does have a certain bias in terms of rights and interests..."

"I'll just say!"

"In my opinion, it is more inclined to protect the rights and interests of workers."

"ah?"

Xu Qiao was stunned. Seeing his serious expression, he didn't look like he was joking, he confirmed: "Are you saying you're partial to me?"

"Yes, on the basis of a general labor contract, this contract omits almost most of the workers' obligations, and adds no less than ten pages of terms on workers' rights. In layman's terms, once this contract takes effect, the employer may suffer."

"So the reason why this contract is so thick is to give me more benefits?"

"So that's it."

"There are really no terms to cheat people? For example," Xu Qiao said, clearing his throat and shrank back awkwardly, "For example, what does it take for me to give my health..."

“…”

Xu Huai Song said after a few seconds: "No. Even if there are such terms, they will not have legal effect."

"Okay, then I blamed him wrongly." Xu Qiao touched his nose.

"Miss Yu has any other problems?"

"No more, that consultation fee..."

Xu Huaisong glanced at the clock on the wall: "Just count for thirty minutes. The assistant in the institute will contact you. I have to catch the plane and lose my companion first."

——

Because the other party billed on time and did not speak loudly, Xu Qiao wanted to advance payment first and then reimburse Cheng Lang. However, he walked out of the reception room and happened to meet Gao Rui rushing to arrive.

Gao Rui came up and said, "Miss Yu, is your consultation over? If it is over, I will pay the fee here. You go downstairs first. Xiao Cheng is always waiting for you in the car."

Xu Qiao held up the sunglasses and glasses frame: "It's arrived quite quickly."

"Ah, don't get me wrong. Xiao Cheng is not intentionally monitoring you," Gao Rui explained in a hurry. "I just saw you angry when you left and didn't feel at ease with you, so I asked the driver to confirm your whereabouts."

Xu Qiao breathed a sigh of relief and left the law firm. He went downstairs but did not see Cheng Lang's Zeppelin car.

The driver opened the Cayenne car door. She saw the man waiting in the back seat and paused, as if she was stunned.

"Don't you want to be low-key? Then let's take you to this car." Cheng Lang seemed to have spent the past two hours calming down and returning to the silence. He patted the seat beside her and said, "It's cold outside, come up first."

Xu Qiao shivered, got into the car with her coat, took off her sunglasses and mask.

The driver turned around and asked where Cheng Lang was going.

Cheng Lang glanced at Xu Qiao: "The consultation results are available. Are you willing to go to have a meal now?"

"Oh." Xu Qiao gave an onomatopoeia as if he was right or not, and then said in a muffled voice, "Don't go to places with a lot of people."

"Why go home?"

Xu Qiao looked at him in a daze.

"It's not my family, it's the employee apartment arranged for you. Whether to sign a contract or not, you can think slowly and go there first." Cheng Lang sighed and explained.

Xu Qiao said "Oh" and turned around and lowered her eyes.

Cheng Lang realized that she was not misunderstood by the fact that he wanted to take her back to her home, but was simply surprised that she could still hear the word "go home".

Even though Cheng Lang is very good at speaking, there is nothing else to do except to change the topic.

He said: "What do you want to eat? Let's make it first, and you can start your meal when you arrive."

"Whatever." Xu Qiao lowered his head and played with his fingers, looking indifferent.

But the more she was indifferent, the more it seemed that Cheng Lang's words just now had accidentally touched her thoughts.

After a while, Xu Qiao looked up and asked, "Is what is said in the circle of friends true?"

"What circle of friends?"

"Just..." Xu Qiao felt a little regretful when he opened his mouth. Perhaps he felt that it was not very glorious, so he talked about some news awkwardly, "It may snow heavily in the mountains of Beicheng in the past few days."

"If it is a message released by the meteorological observatory, it is true." Cheng Lang answered seriously. After saying that, he thought and blinked, opened WeChat, and found his circle of friends.

Unfortunately, I read it back and forth, and it was all commercial content.

His and Xu Qiao’s circle of friends may not be in the same world.

He sent a message to Jiang Fang: "Is there any news about the Xu family in my circle of friends today?"
