Chapter 14.4 “Husband? Where’s my husband? What are you talking about?”
After Bai Duanduan left, Du Xinyi, who was initially struggling to explain the professional plan and couldn’t interrupt before, finally began to find a sense of existence for herself. She put on the tone of an elite lawyer and smiled, “In short, I have made plans for all situations, and I will be prepared. I’ve just had lawyer Bai explain it to you very clearly.”
Song Lianjun was stunned. He was a simple and common man. Just now he saw that it had been Bai Duanduan who had been explaining the plan. And he naturally thought that she was in charge of this case. Now after hearing these words from Du Xinyi, he suddenly realized with hindsight that this lawyer with the surname Du, who had been silent all this time was actually the main lawyer, the one in charge of this case.
He regretted that he had just ignored Du Xinyi, and then hastily took out his long prepared value stored shopping card in the next moment, “Lawyer Du, for this case, we still need to trouble you more. This is a small token of our appreciation, and we will work hard for you even afterwards.”
Song Lianjun prepared two shopping stored value cards with 2,000 credits each. When he communicated with Bai Duanduan during the early stage of negotiation, he actually tried to give those cards to her, but she refused without leaving any room for discussion. Now that he found out that Du Xinyi was the main person in charge, he naturally wanted to make the best use of this shopping card.
This was the traditional thinking of typical Chinese people. Even if they had signed an agency agreement for a service at a price, they would still feel that if they could provide the host lawyer with a gift or two and establish a close bond with them, then the lawyer would also look at the case as their own personal matter, and would be able to do a better job for their client. What made Song Lianjun feel at ease was that lawyer Bai didn’t take it, but lawyer Du, who was in charge of the case, accepted it graciously with a smile on her face.

Song Lianjun took advantage of the victory and pursued her, “Lawyer Du, since our plan is so well prepared, then we would surely win this case, right?”
After receiving the shopping card, Du Xinyi was in a good mood, and naturally her attitude towards Song Lianjun became a little enthusiastic, “Don’t worry, now the labor laws tend to protect our workers more. Simon Paper is going to transfer so many production lines, and these 300 employees are definitely going to be fired. Are there any employees who want to retire without compensation? Besides, there is a lot of social attention in this case. Simon Paper is just another foreign company. Can we still cheat our own people in arbitration and litigation in our own territory?”
Du Xinyi assured, “In short, don’t worry. Legally speaking, if Simon Paper wants to fire people, it must give a reasonable financial compensation. Our plan is very comprehensive. At best, they can just bargain about some defective behaviors that may exist in individual employees, but basically, we are stable.”

Bai Duanduan finished pressing the order,and then turned around and was ready to go back to her box table. However, it was probably not that the enemies were meant to be met. As soon as she took a few steps, she bumped into Ji Lin, who was coming towards her.
He was also present at that restaurant at that time.
When Ji Lin saw Bai Duanduan, he changed his usual indifference and actually showed a smile. He raised his eyebrows, “Since it’s such a coincidence, then thank you for inviting me to dinner.”
” What a nice thought! Who’s inviting you to dinner?”
Bai Duanduan glared at Ji Lin with a tigerish face before she turned around and went back to her box table. What kind of cheeky behavior was that? How dare he say that she was going to invite him to dinner? Was he still daydreaming?
Just don’t know why, since the moment Bai Duanduan saw Ji Lin, her left eyelid was twitching, she started to have a kind of ominous premonition.
On the contrary, Song Lianjun and Du Xinyi became familiar with each other after a while. Compared to Bai Duanduan, Song Lianjun even seemed to trust Du Xinyi more. This made Bai Duanduan feel that perhaps Lin Hui was right in saying that Du Xinyi was indeed much better than herself in terms of interpersonal communication.
However, the bad feeling brought from Ji Lin finally reached its peak when Bai Duanduan finished the meal and walked to the bar counter to prepare for the checkout.
“A total of 889 yuan.”
“What?” Bai Duanduan frowned. The average cost per person of this restaurant was about 150 yuan, and the dishes she just ordered were obviously about 500 yuan for three people in total. How can they reach 889 yuan?
She immediately raised her eyebrow and asked, “Did you miscalculate the account?”
The non mainstream neighbor apparently had lingering fears about Bai Duanduan’s military strength, but he still very bravely answered, “There is nothing wrong. Total bill for you and your husband sum upto 889 yuan, see for yourself.” After he finished speaking, he put another receipt into Bai Duanduan’s hand.

Bai Duanduan got angry, “Husband? Where’s my husband? What are you talking about?”
“Just that one, just that one, the one who is quite handsome, but you also often beat him up and do domestic violence on him ……” the non mainstream neighbor said carefully, “He just left. When he came to checkout, he told me to ask his wife for the money, saying that you usually take care of the money in the household.”
After the non mainstream neighbor finished speaking, he couldn’t help but muttered, “Not only is he beaten, but he is also taken away from his financial power. What kind of life does this old man living under her terror? I didn’t expect that under his glamorous appearance, he turned out to be actually so broken and dull. After going through all this, how can he be so optimistic and confident every day? Thinking about a different life in this world, my hardships are nothing compared to him…”
You b@stard Ji Lin! No wonder he thanked herself for inviting him to dinner! F#ck him!!!
After eating this poisonous chicken soup from Jilin, the non mainstream neighbor stared at Bai Duanduan,”Don’t say that he is not your husband. You confessed it directly at my door that day. Don’t deny it just to renege!”
[T/n: Here chicken soup refers to a soul stirring story that draws sympathy from others.]
Bai Duanduan was simply furious. It was really a moment of pleasure for her that night to pay for Ji Lin’s crematorium. She can only blame herself for being a cheap talker now! Because Ji Lin was clearly blackmailing her!
[T/n: this sentence refers back to the incident that happened that night. To handle the situation Bai Duanduan took the bait and hastily introduced herself as Ji Lin’s wife and thus gaining an upper hand over him. Now the table was reversed and Ji Lin took the advantage of her snarky behavior and had his hooks in her now. Bai Duanduan can’t help but only blame herself for talking nonsense.]
Du Xinyi smiled thoughtfully, “Where does our lawyer Bai have a husband? Obviously she is single, don’t talk nonsense, be careful of what you say or you will get sued for slander.”
The non mainstream neighbor got anxious and pointed to the door, “Really, look, there he is! He just left!”
When Du Xinyi followed his gaze, she saw the straight back of a tall and sturdy man, wearing an expensive suit, with an excellent figure, like a top notch cloth hanger. Her heart moved, and when the other party turned the corner in the street, Du Xinyi finally saw the side of the other party’s face.
It was an extremely handsome and cold face.

She recognised this face, it was the infamous Ji Lin.
Du Xinyi looked at Bai Duanduan who was sulking and paying, “Lawyer Bai, so you and Lawyer Ji are so familiar?”
“Not familiar. This man is sick!”
Bai Duanduan finished her sentence in anger and paid the money before finally opening WeChat.
She clicked on Ji Lin’s profile picture. After deleting, making multiple corrections and modifying it to her heart’s content, she finally typed a large paragraph condemning him for being shameless. Finally, she clicked the send button. She spent her own money to eat this king’s meal so why should she be the only one who got disdained by others? That’s right! Bai Duanduan thought proudly, no matter how good Ji Lin’s mentality was, after seeing her fancy curse, he would probably get so angry that he would vomit blood.
It’s just……
It’s just that as soon as she sent her reply, WeChat feedback pop up on her screen——
“Ji Lin has turned on friend verification. You are not his (her) friend yet. Please send a friend verification request first. After the other party has verified it, you can chat.”
“……”
Bai Duanduan felt that her mentality had completely collapsed.
Ji Lin actually deleted her contact! Deleted her from his friend list!
[T/n: Basically in WeChat one first has to be approved as a friend by another party to start a conversation. Same wise, once you’re removed from the friend list you can’t text the person anymore.]

Partner Ji: Woman, I admit, you attracted me to you

Partner Ji: ？？？

This Du xinyu will be the death of Zhihua and Linhui. She accept bribes, that would be the death penalty for their client, especially when they’re going against Jilin.
