First-Class Lawyer

Gu Yan was not happy.

It's not the unhappy kind of anger, but another emotion that is more complicated and difficult to describe...

Yan Suizhi looked at the still communicator, and could almost imagine how Gu Yan would frown slightly, then quickly let go, returning to his usual extremely calm appearance, and then fell silent...

He knows all this.

Even though the distance between the communicator and the shuttle was getting farther and farther away, he could still feel Gu Yan's emotions.

But how to coax this time?

Professor Yanda was a little worried. He leaned against the soft leather back of the office chair, propped his chin and stared for a while, then sighed, and went out to the tea room to pour himself a glass of water.

He stopped when he passed Gu Yan's desk with warm water.

The large and heavy desk was kept extremely neat and tidy, just like Gu Yan's usual impression. There was a pot of evergreen bamboo in the corner of the desk.This was when the barrister's office was just furnished, and Fitz forcibly stuffed it into each office to decorate the indoor environment.

As a result, over the past few years, other people's potted plants have died several times, but his potted plants have been living well.During a casual chat before, Fitz said that Gu Yan's pot of evergreen bamboo is generally not touched by people. After all, the entire law firm is a plant killer, and it is not easy for it to survive.

But Yan Suizhi poured water into it several times, but Gu Yan just rolled his eyelids and didn't say a word.

Professor Yanda has a problem. When he is thinking about a problem, his hands will move a little bit. There used to be a floor-standing potted plant next to the chair in the dean's office. The leaves are thin and cool, and it feels very cool.He often rests his chin while thinking about things, while unconsciously touching the leaf with his fingers.

The cleaning aunt who is in charge of cleaning the office is a careful person. After discovering his habit, she turns the flower pot to a corner every time after cleaning to prevent him from staring at a leaf and feeling bald.

At this moment, he was leaning against the edge of Gu Yan's desk, staring at the empty chair and lost his mind for a while.When he came back to his senses, he realized that half of the warm water in his hand had been lost, and he had subconsciously poured the other half into the evergreen bamboo flower pot after a while.

The soil in the flower pot had been thoroughly watered, and there was a small shallow puddle formed on one of the pots. A small puddle was formed, and then slowly soaked down, and it was impossible to get it back.

"..."

Yan Suizhi was silent for a moment, bent down and lifted the stretched branches and leaves of the evergreen bamboo to take a look, and found that the roots of the green bamboo were indeed a little bit rotten. According to his rich experience in the past, this evergreen bamboo may be Almost drowned by him.

"..."

Professor Yanda froze for a moment, then immediately withdrew his hand as if he had done something bad, turned his head and returned to his seat.

Gu Yan was about to run away in anger, and Gu Yan's bamboo was about to be killed by him.

Yan Suizhi was even more worried, thinking that he might be doomed to have a hard time with mint essence.

……

When leaving the law firm in the afternoon, Fitz, who offered to give Yan Suizhi a ride, looked him up and down and asked, "Ruan? What happened to you?"

Yan Suizhi froze for a moment, "It's nothing, what's wrong?"

"It doesn't look like you're in a good mood." Fitz said, "Did Gu leave you a task before the business trip? Or did you encounter any problems? I heard that Locke found you a new apartment?"

"Yeah." Yan Suizhi nodded, "So you know?"

Fitz said proudly: "Of course, I don't know anything. Are you planning to move tonight?"

Yan Suizhi thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Let's clean it up tonight, and move tomorrow."

"Wait until Gu comes back?" Fitz asked.

Yan Sui paused, nodded again and said, "Yes, wait for him to come back."

"Okay then, I wanted to say that if you plan to move tonight, I can do you a favor by driving you and your suitcase." Miss Fitz put on a regretful face without embellishment at all, "Hey, There is no chance to help the handsome guy move and grab a meal."

"I heard that your new landlord is also very handsome, so I don't have a chance to take a look." Fitz said.

It's a real pity.

Yan Suizhi couldn't laugh or cry, "I do have his communication number, I can send it to you if you need it."

"Forget it." Fitz said again, "It's not bad to move tomorrow, Gu can help you clean up and send you there."

Yan Suizhi laughed dryly, and said to himself, don't mention helping me, your lawyer Gu seems to have no intention of talking to me anymore.

"Hmm... Did I say something wrong?" Fitz glanced at him again, "Why do you seem to be in a bad mood again?"

Yan Suizhi touched his face, and smiled half-sincerely: "Is it so obvious? I'm a little regretful. I won't be able to live in a villa as expensive as Lawyer Gu's in the future."

Miss Fitz snorted.

The car was still in the state of intelligent driving, and it didn't take long to turn into the courtyard gate of the garden villa area in the city.The law firm was not too busy that day, and no one was working overtime, so when they arrived at the villa area, the sky was just getting dark, and the afterglow of the setting sun laid a layer of golden afterglow on the flowers and plants and the top of the snow that had not disappeared.

The brightly red car stopped in front of Gu Yan's villa. Yan Suizhi opened the door and got out of the car. He stood by the flower garden and waved to Fitz, saying, "It's so early, you should go back."

"If I can come back at this time every day, I can live to be five hundred years old, and the scenery will make me feel good—" Miss Fitz said halfway, the smile froze on her lips, and then continued with a lower voice : "——shit! Damn it!"

Yan Suizhi: "???"

Fitz looked over his shoulder and looked at a certain direction behind him, with the expression of seeing a ghost.

"what happened?"

"Hobbs—" Fitz said in a low voice.

On the fork road leading to another villa not far away, a thin man with silver-gray hair was standing there, wearing a long black coat and an iron-gray scarf, with a serious face.

The color of his eyes was close to that of his hair, and when he looked at him, he looked like a falcon waiting for an opportunity.Of course, it may also be the visual effect brought by his hooked nose.

It was none other than the old antique Hobbs they were worried about encountering before.

Although Hobbs is not young, he has very good eyesight and hearing, especially when he is catching people's pigtails.

Miss Fitz bit her lip with her back turned to him, and winked at Yan Suizhi, "What should I do? Why don't you just get in the car and say you're going to my house."

Yan Suizhi raised his eyebrows, and said softly to her: "Isn't it too deliberate to get out of the car and then get in the car?" He said, patted the car window, and said, "It's okay, you go back first."

This kind of gesture has always had a strong soothing effect when he makes it, probably because he always seems to be smiling and unhurried.Fitz nodded subconsciously, and was about to press the start button, and then realized: I actually let a little intern deal with Hobbs alone?Why am I so obedient?

So Miss Fitz withdrew her activated finger again, glanced at Yan Suizhi, then looked at Hobbs, and countless excuses flashed through her mind——

I thought the little intern was so handsome that I couldn't resist inviting him to dinner?No, although it sounds true, it is not good for interns.

Lawyer Gu is on a business trip, so he asked an intern to look after his house for a day?No, more nonsense.

……

She was worrying that she was not smart enough to tell nonsense.Hobbs over there opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

However, before he opened his mouth, Yan Suizhi turned his head to look at him very naturally, then froze for a moment even more naturally, and said with a smile: "Mr. Hobbs, it seems that the timing of my coming is just right."

Hobbs closed his mouth just now, and looked at him in a daze: "???"

Fitz was even more confused: "???"

"What are you doing?" Fitz asked in a low voice, Yan Suizhi shook his dangling finger at her lightly, signaling that she was fine, don't worry about it.

After comparing gestures, Yan Suizhi strode up to Hobbs.

"What's the right timing?" Hobbs asked him, frowning.

Yan Suizhi said: "I asked about your residence from Miss Fitz, and I specially took her ride to find you. I thought I would have to wait for a while, but unexpectedly..."

He has a very calm expression, a decent and polite smile, like a senior colleague, and also a bit like the partner he met at the reception... In short, he is not like any other intern in the law firm.

The teacher Hobbs posed to Locke and the others was a bit lacking in confidence in front of Yan Suizhi.

It doesn't make sense...

Hobbs thought to himself, what did I say to an intern, so he corrected his face, suppressed his voice, and said in a tone of "I don't know you well", "What do you want me for?"

"Oh——" Yan Suizhi slightly dragged his tail, and said with a smile, "It's really nothing, I just feel that you always seem to have a lot of opinions on me. I passed by your office door three times today at the law firm. He was stared at three times. Am I right?"

Hobbs: "..."

"It's not good for both parties if it goes on like this, it will affect your mood and work efficiency too much, so I want to talk to you. But it's not appropriate to spend time in the law firm talking about such purely private topics, so I can only wait for you to get off work , if you don't mind, let me sit with you for a while?"

Yan Suizhi was not in a good mood today, but now he was poking at each other's ribs every sentence he spoke.

At first glance, this passage seems to be nothing, but in fact it directly opened up two points, one is "private topic" and the other is "go to the room to talk".

"Private topic" is to make it clear that this is not a business matter, it is purely private and biased emotions, and it is embarrassing to say that Hobbs has had trouble with the interns.

As for "going to talk in the room", that is what Hobbs is most afraid of at present.

Gu Yan is in the publicity period of the list of first-class lawyers, and Hobbs is also there. During this period, the most appropriate thing to do is not to be caught even the slightest problem, even if it is a normal thing, once there is an opening to diverge , it will be very troublesome.

Especially for an old man like Hobbs, what is it like to let an intern into the house at night!

So Hobbs frowned and leaned back his upper body, looked at Yan Sui with a look of avoidance like a snake, then waved his hand and said: "No, I don't have any complaints about you, I just think you were in the law firm before. Some of his performances are not in line with what an intern should be. Lawyer Gu is a young man, and he was always reluctant to take interns before. You were the first, and you were pushed into his hands. In terms of discipline interns Inexperienced. And I am just an experienced old lawyer who came over to give you some warnings, without any personal emotions."

Yan Suizhi nodded, "Really? That's good. I also think I'm overthinking it. After all, you are an experienced lawyer, so you can't be so narrow-minded."

Hobbs: "..."

This is very poignant, it is "old" and "small-minded".

The young man acted as if he said he didn't want to hang out at Southern Cross.

The corners of Hobbs's mouth twitched twice, still with a straight face, he took the words abruptly, and said: "Of course not, I just think that young people need to temper their temper and gain more experience. Alright, The words are all said here, you go back and think about it yourself."

After finishing speaking, Hobbs turned his head and left with his bare brain and handbag in his hand. It might be the first time he walked so vigorously after getting old.

He walked quickly, disappeared behind the detour in an instant, passed two villas, turned inside, and disappeared from sight.

Yan Sui returned to the car with a calm face. Miss Fitz was amazed, stared at him for a while, and asked cautiously, "Have you found a home yet?"

Yan Suizhi: "???"

"Why do you say that?"

Miss Fitz: "Oh, it's nothing, I thought you didn't want to hang out in Southern Cross Law Firm."

Yan Suizhi rolled his eyes with a smile, and said to himself that I was not a member of the Southern Cross Law Firm. If it wasn't for a certain peppermint essence who still ignored me, I would have patted my ass and left after reading the file.

Although Miss Fitz was frightened by what he said just now, she finally let out a long breath and said, "But it sounds good, you're fine, I'm going home first."

"Can I see Lawyer Gu from Hobbs' villa?" Yan Suizhi asked again.

"It can't be seen, unless he doesn't sleep at night and squats in the yard to stare." Fitz said, "Don't worry, it won't happen. He is just a little narrow-minded, and he likes to make trouble, but he hasn't reached this level. "

Yan Suizhi nodded, and entered Gu Yan's house with peace of mind.

After entering the door, he turned on the light in the living room downstairs, and took a look at the holographic screen of the smartphone.Xin said that he was also narrow-minded, why there are thousands of differences, Hobbs is so annoying, but Gu Yan is quite likable.

Without further hesitation, he sent a message to Gu Yan, "I met Hobbs when I came back just now, Miss Fitz looks like she saw a ghost."

Obviously, some words in this sentence successfully touched some points of Lawyer Gu. After a while, the message that had been silent for a whole day finally made a movement: "Don't worry about him."

Professor Yanda finally found an entry point, and said: "We still have to take care of it, at least until you pass the announcement period."

This time Gu Yan's reply came quickly, "You moved because of Hobbs?"

Is it?

Yan Suizhi paused his fingers for a while, and replied: "Well, didn't you say that you were only staying here for two days at the beginning, and you were still very unhappy."

This time Gu Yan was silent again.

Yan Suizhi: "???"

He read this message over and over several times, but he couldn't figure out where he was wrong or which leaf he had pinched.

Go to hell.

Yan Suizhi angrily took off the smartphone, casually threw it on the coffee table, and then borrowed Gu Yan's kitchen to make some simple food.

Although he is often not very polite when speaking on weekdays, and sometimes he is very shameless, but he has always been very careful about certain things and is extremely polite.He has always paid attention to etiquette in other people's residences, no matter how close he is, he will never go in and out like his own.

Gu Yan is an exception here.

Another exception...

He has lived for so many years, with few exceptions, but now it seems that most of them have fallen on Gu Yan.

This time, Gu Yan's message was delayed for a long time. Yan Suizhi looked at the time of Helan Star in the interstellar time zone. The area where Gu Yan was going on a business trip happened to be in the afternoon. He didn't know if he was busy or what.

It is said that he went this time to do a friend a favor, and the matter he was dealing with was not criminal, but civil and commercial.In fact, the lawyers of the alliance are not strictly classified. They are criminal lawyers and occasionally handle some civil cases.Lawyers who mainly deal with civil and commercial lawsuits will occasionally be dragged to take on one or two criminal cases, but they don't handle many cases. After all, most people will definitely choose a more suitable lawyer first when looking for a lawyer.In this case, it is mostly acquaintances and friends who help out.

Gu Yan's friend is a minority shareholder of a private hospital on Helan Star. Recently, the major shareholder of the hospital has been restless and wants to shrink the minority shareholders' rights.He's going back this time to help with a negotiation.

When you get to the negotiating table, you don't have to chat with people halfway.

Thinking of this, Yan Suizhi washed himself up and went up to the attic. He sat on the soft sofa chair by the wall and read a book for a while, and then felt very sleepy for some reason...

When the smartphone on his little finger vibrated, he opened his eyes and reacted for a while, only to realize that he fell asleep while reading a book.

He lazily leaned back in the chair, called up the information interface and took a look:

Because Gu Yan turned off the screen last time when he wanted to change to a serious comment name, so the other party's comment name is still very unscrupulous "Great Peppermint Essence"

Relying on the name, Gu Yan replied with two simple words.

-No.

what not?

Yan Suizhi felt that he might have fallen asleep and couldn't understand the meaning of the message.

He turned it upside down, only to remember what he had posted earlier.

-Didn't you say at the beginning that you were only staying here for two days, and you were still very unhappy.

-No.

Not unhappy.

What is talking nonsense with your eyes open?That's it.

But Professor Yanda looked at the message, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
