i: "The situation is currently unclear, but communication has been cut off over there, and the roads are also blocked."Xiao Cai still has professional ethics. Even though Shan Shan was there, he remai...Lawyer Zhang was taken aback for a moment. Getting a meal card wasn't a big deal, but Zhuo Yuan Technology's administrative director was notorious for being frugal. It wouldn't be a problem to get one card for an external employee, but two He would probably have to put in quite a bit of effort. It really felt like he was making things difficult for himself. Though he resisted inwardly, Lawyer Zhang happily agreed on the surface.

"No problem."

The employee canteen has a dedicated dining space for Zhuo Yuyan. His meals are personally prepared by a chef, but despite this, he is very down-to-earth. When he's busy, he just eats whatever is available and rarely orders special dishes.

But today was unprecedented. At high noon, I actually ordered a few dishes with my master. The combination of meat and vegetables was excellent.

"How did President Zhu know our tastes He ordered everything we, Lin Zhixuan and Tinglan, like," Lin Zhixuan exclaimed. She was a social butterfly; she had been a bit intimidated by Zhu Yunan at first, but after two meetings, although she still thought he was hard to get along with, she could communicate naturally with him.

Zhuo Yu'an didn't answer, only using hot water to scald the bowls and chopsticks beside him before naturally placing them in front of Shu Tinglan. Shu Tinglan casually passed this set of bowls and chopsticks to Lin Zhifan next to him.

"Are both Ms. Zhi and Ms. Shu graduates of Senzhou University Then by that logic, you could be considered my junior since I was a exchange student there for a year at Senzhou University. They say Senzhou University is known for its beautiful women, so you two must be goddess-level, right"

Shū Tínglàn merely smiled politely, while Lín Zhīfēi opened the conversation and said:

"That's true, especially my Shu Tinglan. Back when she was at Senzhou University, she captivated countless seniors and juniors. Sadly, they were all ultimately disappointed because my Shu Tinglan is just a soulless bookworm, naturally emotionally stunted."

was very interested and followed up.

"Really"

"The funniest part is, during our sophomore year, there was a senior who would reserve a seat for her in the library every day and even buy her hot drinks to leave on the table. He did this for a whole year! Before graduation, he finally worked up the courage to confess his feelings to her. Do you want to know what she said"

"What do you say" asked Lawyer Zhang. Zuo Yu'an also looked at her, waiting for an answer.

She asked, "Who are you"

Although many years have passed, every time Lin Zhihao thinks back to Shu Tinglan's bewildered expression and the senior's face looking like he had eaten a **, he bursts into laughter.

She sat in the spot that people had specially reserved for her for a whole year, and drank the hot beverages that people had specially bought for her all year long. She didn't even remember who those people were

Outsiders think she's a green tea girl or a white lotus, pretending to be innocent and taking advantage of boys. Only Lin Zhixuan understands her; she's genuinely oblivious to these things to an outrageous degree, or perhaps she simply has no interest in romantic relationships between men and women.

After knowing the whole story, she sincerely apologized to the boy and insisted on returning all the money he had spent on hot drinks over the past year. She was so sincere that the boy couldn't even bear to hate her.

"There were just too many things like that. After a long time, no guys chased her anymore, and she's remained single to this day. It's a pity, I wonder which man will get lucky in the future." Lin Zhifei said, hugging Shu Tinglan with a hint of affection.

When the lawyer Zhang heard this, he laughed.

"It's okay, you and Lawyer Shu are best friends. In the future, ask Mr. Zhuo to introduce a few more male candidates to Lawyer Shu. The people around Mr. Zhuo are all talented young men."

"Do I look like I'm free"

Lin Zhihao immediately said with understanding, “Then I’ll thank General Manager Zhuo on behalf of Tinglan first.”

Zhuo Yu'an restrained the faint smile he had just been sporting and said seriously,

"Do I look like I'm free Finish eating and get back to work."

The atmosphere suddenly grew tense. Zhang lawyer was just joking, but this person took it seriously. Shu Tinglan had grown accustomed to his unpredictable moods. On the other hand, she rolled her eyes at Lin Zhi's habit of finding amusement in bringing up her embarrassing moments. Despite her inner annoyance, she still cooperated with Lin Zhi's performance on the surface.

The chef in the canteen brought up the dishes that Zhu Yu ordered very quickly. Lin Zhifei, in order to maintain her figure, ate very little even though she was hungry. She spent the whole time taking care of Shu Tinglan, afraid that Shu Tinglan would feel uncomfortable in front of Zhu Yu and the lawyer Zhang, so she didn't dare to eat freely.

Shu Tinglan was truly hungry now because she hadn't eaten breakfast. She enjoyed Lin Zhichao's care with peace of mind. This was the pattern of their getting along. Lin Zhichao had many friends, and he often took Shu Tinglan to gatherings, just like bringing his own child, taking care of her by pouring water and serving dishes throughout the meal.

Lawyer Zhang sighed.

"Your relationship is so good, it's rare."

Of course, we're closer than sisters.

Because it was in the company cafeteria, during the peak lunchtime rush, even though they had their own space, Zhu Yu'an was after all powerful and charismatic. This was his first meal with two female colleagues, one of whom was Lin Zhifei, rumored to be a "relationship holder" among employees. So, he remained the center of attention throughout the meal. Many employees would intentionally or unintentionally glance over, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Lin Zhiyao is a hype-magnet, the more attention she receives, the better she performs. She's also very good at capitalizing on misunderstandings, after all, the rumors about her and Zhuo Yuxuan have benefited her.

And Zhuo Yu'an seemed to be in a good mood afterward, listening to Lin Zhixuan with gentle eyebrows and eyes.

After finishing their meal, the four people stood up and walked out of the employee canteen. There was a small step at the door, and Shu Tinglan didn't notice it in time and stumbled, almost falling. Zhuo Yu'an next to her supported her arm gently.

"Lawyer Shu, be careful." His voice was calm, but his grip tightened, giving Shu Tinglan something to lean on.

"Thank you," Shu Tinglan said awkwardly, even more embarrassed to find that a bit of her foundation had rubbed off on his shoulder, especially noticeable against his black shirt. She wanted to reach out and wipe it off but held back. Fortunately, Zhuo Yu'an didn't seem to mind and let go of her hand, leaving with Lawyer Zhang first.

Lin Zhi'ao looked at his back and couldn't help but sigh:

"What a pity, such a good man, I dare not even dream of him."

Zuo Yu'an can indeed be considered a good man. He has wealth, good looks, and a steady personality. Even though he had such an intimate relationship with Shu Tinglan, he never made any frivolous language or actions.

After returning to the law firm in the afternoon, Director Xiao organized a meeting for the M&A team, focusing on the acquisition case of Zhuoyuan Technology. The progress of the entire project was not smooth, and no one could guess Zhu Yunan's true intentions. Ultimately, it remained uncertain which law firm he would choose to cooperate with.

"Zhou Yu'an contacting domestic law firms is most likely a smokescreen; he doesn't believe in their capabilities." Zhou Ming found this man unfathomable. Up to now, he couldn't see any indication of his leanings, even though Director Xiao had just won a case for him.

Director Xiao answered.

"While this possibility can't be ruled out, remember that the target company, Shengpu Rui Intelligence, is a state-owned enterprise. It naturally has an advantage in understanding and navigating national policies due to its local roots. I believe if he didn't intend to collaborate with a local law firm, he wouldn't waste time negotiating."

"Shū tīng lán, I heard you had dinner with CEO Zhuó and Lawyer Zhang at Zhuò Yuǎn Technology today" takes to save him, and invited the most authoritative experts from across the country. 。But she was critically injured, and was put on life support several times, but each time she miraculously pull...
