Chapter 30

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


    "Can you do it?" Xu Qiao came to this place alone for the first time. In fact, she felt a little empty in her heart. She had to say in a strong voice that "money can make the ghost push the mill." no, I''ll change my home. "


    "I''m sorry, miss. It''s Sunday, and it''s near the end of the day..." Seeing that she was ready to turn around and leave, the front desk girl called her in a hurry, "you wait, I just explained to you that there may not be a lawyer who can receive you immediately, but I will arrange it for you as soon as possible."


    Xu Qiao leaned against the front desk cabinet and watched her pick up the receiver. She told her, "I want the most professional lawyer."


    The little sister nodded. She was shocked by Xu Qiao''s good money, and her voice was shaking: "ah? Xu Lu? Xu Lu just came to the branch office as a guest. I don''t want to trouble him, and he didn''t take this kind of general... " When she said this, she didn''t dare to say that the six figure consultation was "ordinary" and "Oh, it''s great if he''s free, then I''ll invite someone to the reception room."


    Xiaomei hung up the phone and said with a smile, "Miss, the partner of our Hangzhou headquarters is in the Institute today. This lawyer''s professional ability is very well-known in the industry. I think it can meet your needs."


    With an "OK" gesture, Xu Qiao walked into the reception room with her and sat down at the guest seat on the sofa.


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


    Xu Qiao turned her head and glanced through her sunglasses.


    Suit and shoes, elite temperament, judge people by appearance, professional ability should be really excellent.


    But this pair of gold rimmed glasses


    She knew she shouldn''t judge a person with her glasses. However, Cheng Lang''s image of being a gentle scum with a smile on her lips has cast a shadow on her, so that she has some prejudice against gold rimmed glasses, which is equivalent to being crafty.


    In her trance moment, the other party has sat down on the sofa and handed her a business card: "my name is Xu, how do I address you?"


    "My name is Yu." Xu Qiao took the business card and glanced at the three words "Xu huaisong" -- it''s also life with water!


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


    Xu Qiao handed over the contract.


    Xu huaisong flipped a few pages: "I need about 30 minutes."


    Xu Qiao nodded: "you can see more for a while, don''t save money for me."


    There was silence in the reception room, leaving only the rustle of paper.


    Bored, Xu Qiao picked up her mobile phone and brushed her wechat circle of friends for a while. She didn''t know what she saw, but she suddenly lost interest and turned to the sofa to close her eyes.


    As soon as her eyes closed, she began to doze off unconsciously. Her consciousness gradually became confused until she was awakened by a "Miss Yu".


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


    No more, no less, just 30 minutes. Is that awesome?


    "Miss Yu," Xu huaisong pushed the contract back to her, "I have finished reading the contract. What question do you want to ask?"


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


    A mobile phone vibration interrupted her.


    Xu huaisong raised his hand to wait, looked at the caller ID, got up and said, "sorry, I need to take a call."


    Xu Qiao''s face showed vigilance.


    Cheng Lang''s powerful means make her feel defensive for the phone call.


    She stopped Xu huaisong and said, "you''ll pick it up here."


    When Xu huaisong looked at her, he seemed to want to say something, but he probably heard from the front desk about the client''s style. He didn''t intend to negotiate more with her, so he connected the phone: "what''s the matter?"


    Xu Qiao raised her ears.


    The voice on the other end of the phone was not clear, but the lawyer was so gentle that she felt that she might have been wrong.


    "I''m still in the branch office on this side of the north city."


    "In time, we won''t miss the plane."


    He laughed as if there were no one else: "who gave you the courage to watch horror movies when I''m away?"


    "Don''t worry. You''ll be there before you go to bed. Turn on the light and wait for me."


    Xu Qiao


    What kind of evil has she done that she can get a mouthful of dog food in a law firm?


    And this dog food is what she asked for. She is in a hurry to eat it!


    "I''ll just have a plane meal. I don''t have to make supper. Well, you hang up first. " Xu huaisong ended the call.


    Xu Qiao''s eyes behind the sunglasses have already had a flash of tears.


    What''s the matter? With the same golden rimmed glasses, people can take the script of loving their wife like water, but Cheng Lang wants to take the route of extorting and taking care of his little lover?


    "Sorry," Xu huaisong put away his smile, sat back and made a gesture, "you can continue."


    Xu Qiao sniffed: "Oh.""Just now when it comes to the unequal terms, this contract does have a certain bias in terms of rights and interests..."


    "I said it


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


    "Ah?"


    Xu Qiao a Leng, see his facial expression is serious, don''t seem to joke, affirm a way: "you mean eccentric me?"


    "Yes, on the basis of the general labor contract, this contract almost omits most of the workers'' obligations, and adds at least ten pages of clauses on workers'' rights. Generally speaking, once this contract comes into effect, the employer will only suffer losses. "


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


    "You can say that."


    "Is there really no provision for cheating? For example, "Xu Qiao said here, clearing her throat and shrinking awkwardly," for example, what do I need to pay for my body... "


    “……”


    After a few seconds of silence, Xu huaisong said, "No. Even if there is such a clause, it does not have legal effect. "


    "Well, I''m wrong about him." Xu Qiao felt her nose.


    "Do you have any questions with Miss Yu?"


    "No, the consulting fee..."


    Xu huaisong looked at the clock on the wall and said, "just 30 minutes. The assistant in the Institute will contact you. I have to catch a plane. Excuse me first."


    -


    because the other party charges on time, and the lion doesn''t open his mouth, Xu Qiao wanted to pay in advance first, and then reimbursement with Cheng Lang later. As a result, she walked out of the reception room and just met Gao Rui, who rushed to the reception room.


    Gao Rui said: "Miss Yu, is your consultation over? When it''s over, I''ll settle the expenses here. Go downstairs first. Xiao Cheng is always waiting for you in the car. "


    Xu Qiao helped the sunglasses frame: "it''s quite fast."


    "Ah, don''t get me wrong. Xiaocheng didn''t mean to spy on you," Gao Rui explained hastily. "He just saw you go in a huff. I don''t trust you, so he asked the driver to confirm your whereabouts."


    Xu Qiao takes a deep breath and leaves the law firm. She doesn''t see Cheng Lang''s car downstairs.


    When the driver opened the car door, she saw the man waiting in the back seat. She was stunned.


    "Don''t you want to keep a low profile? I''ll ride with you. " Cheng Lang seems to have spent these two hours calming down, recovering to a state of indifference, patting the seat beside her, looking at her and saying, "it''s cold outside, come up first."


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


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


    Cheng Lang takes a look at Xu Qiao: "the consultation result is available. Are you willing to go to dinner now?"


    "Oh." Xu Qiao gave an onomatopoeia as if she should or not. After thinking about it, she said, "don''t go to places where there are many people."


    "How about going home?"


    Xu Qiao looked at him in a daze.


    "It''s not my family, it''s the staff apartment for you. If you want to sign a contract or not, you can take your time and make a decision there first. " Cheng Lang sighs and explains.


    Xu Qiao made a "Oh" sound and turned her head and lowered her eyes.


    Cheng Lang realized that just now she didn''t misunderstand that he was going to take her back to her home, but was simply surprised that she could hear the word "go home".


    Even though Cheng Lang is very good at words, he has no choice but to digress from the topic.


    He said, "what would you like to eat? Let''s make it first, and then we can have dinner directly. "


    "Whatever." Xu hung his head and played with his fingers.


    But the more she doesn''t care, it seems that Cheng Lang''s words inadvertently poke her heart.


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


    "What circle of friends?"


    "Just..." As soon as Xu Qiao opened her mouth, she felt a little regretful. Maybe she didn''t feel very honorable, so she told some other news. "It may snow heavily in the mountain area of Beicheng these days."


    "If it''s from the weather station, it''s true." Cheng Lang answered carefully on his face. After that, he blinked, opened wechat and opened his circle of friends.


    It''s a pity to look back and forth, but it''s all commercial content.


    His circle of friends with Xu Qiao may not be in the same world.


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


    Jiang put it back very quickly:" what do you mean, is there any news about the Xu family? Is it all about the Xu family? I''ve been swiped here. Is that the financial circle in your wechat, not the circle of friends? "


    Cheng Lang:" don''t play tricks. "


    JIANG Fang:" the western style house in Xijiang mansion of the Xu family is about to be forced to auction. There are also a lot of luxury goods that are said to have no market value, and many people who are not bad for money have quietly entrusted people to rob them. "


    Cheng Lang takes a look at Xu Qiao around him and lowers his head to type," which day? "


    JIANG Fang:" it''s like next Wednesday or next Thursday. Hey, go and find out for yourself. I won''t tell you. I''m going to send my sister home. 」Cheng Lang didn''t reply. He put down his cell phone and turned to see Xu Qiao again. The little girl was still playing with her own hands, concentrating on picking up the fresh cocoons on her fingers.


    Cheng Lang felt restless for no reason and realized that he didn''t feel very good.


    He found that it was more uncomfortable to see Xu Qiao sulking and pretending to be cool than to be scolded by her.


    The car drove all the way back to the suburbs, passed the Pioneer Park, and drove into a small high-rise community nearby.


    At this time, Xu Qiao finally raised her eyes.


    "This is the nearest residential area to the pioneer park. The other employees of the studio are also here, but they are sharing a flat. You have a single flat on your side. It''s a simple dress of 100 square meters. Time is in a hurry. It''s too late to redecorate. You can make do with it first. If you really feel dissatisfied... "


    Cheng Lang is serious and stops suddenly.


    The little girl hurt her heart and refused to say. Maybe she just needed someone to give her head away.


    He comforted people inexperienced, irritated people quite easily, and it seemed that he would not lose a piece of meat if he was scolded twice.


    He went on in Xu Qiao''s questioning eyes: "if you really feel dissatisfied, you can also move to Lishan residence in Xinglin Bay, and I live alone."


    “?” Xu Qiao listened to what he said in front of him. She was stunned at last. "Am I ill?"


    The car stopped steadily under the apartment.


    Cheng Lang Pai began to smile: "sick or not?"


    Xu Qiao a face "I know you are this kind of dog" expression: "sick or not sick do not come!" She pointed to the apartment building. "Give me the key. I''ll go up by myself. You''re not allowed to follow me."


    Cheng Lang said, "if I don''t go upstairs, I''ll take you to the elevator. There is an aunt cooking upstairs. You can ring the doorbell directly, and the key is with her, just one. I don''t have any spare here. " He told the driver, "take her suitcase up, room 1602."


    The driver got off, opened the door for them, and then went to the trunk to carry luggage.


    Xu Qiao stares at Cheng Lang, wraps up her overcoat, buries her head, and stomps up the front steps of the apartment building, intending to shake him off. As a result, just as she is about to step into the hall, she is suddenly pulled by a force behind her. It''s too late to scream, and a cold stone pillar is stuck on her back.


    In front of her, Cheng Lang is half a head higher than her.


    “……” What''s the matter with Zhu Dong? Do you want to use it with her!


    Xu Qiao''s hands and feet were about to struggle, but before she could shout out her dirty words, she was stopped by his "Shh".


    Cheng Lang knees against her legs, arm virtual block in her face side, hanging his head in her ear, whispered: "there are people you don''t want to meet, stay away."


    Xu Qiao a Zheng, this just remembers just now indistinctly is to see someone walk out of the elevator face to face.


    She nervously "Oh" two times, in a hurry to shrink up the body, his life to the arms of Cheng Lang hide.


    I didn''t expect that Cheng Lang was just going to come over to cover her.


    Both sides of the action at the same time, the two bodies were close to each other.


    Cheng Lang dropped his eyes.


    Xu Qiao raised her head in a daze.


    Four eyes opposite, cold wind howl, two hearts at the same time.
