Abandoned after first marriage due to infertility, married into a wealthy family and had two childre

The call was connected, and Zhao Jian's majestic baritone voice came through the receiver.

Although it was magnetic and pleasant to listen to, Bai Xiaowei had no intention of appreciating it.

Why did everything come together in such a hurry?

Glancing at Su Yixing and Gu Wenrui, she wanted to dig a crack in the ground and crawl in.

No matter how thick-skinned she is, it's not enough to support her being scolded in front of outsiders.

Especially, of these two people, one was her former admirer and the other had just confessed his love to her.

Doesn't she want to lose face?

"Bai Xiaowei."

Zhao Jian's voice was not loud, very calm, and showed no signs of anger.

This is a good thing, but Bai Xiaowei cannot guarantee whether there is still a storm behind this calm.

"Hey, Inspector Zhao."

Bai Xiaowei stood up as she answered, preparing to go to Zhang Aimeng's office to answer the phone.

Aimeng was afraid of Zhao Jian and would only feel sympathy for her, so he probably wouldn't laugh at her.

Not necessarily these two men.

For an old classmate whom I haven't seen for eight years to see her humiliated face after being scolded, it's hard for anyone to accept it, right?

Let the man who is pursuing her see her groveling and embarrassed side, and just thinking about it makes her feel social.

Therefore, she had to hide out, otherwise she would not be able to eat the lunch meal. She was so ashamed that she had no face to face it.

After taking two steps, his arm was held by a strong hand.

Bai Xiaowei raised her eyes and met the deep black eyes. In those eyes, there was distress, concern, pampering, and self-blame...but no ridicule.

Hey, wait, blaming yourself?

There was no time to think about what he was blaming himself for. Seeing Gu Wenrui's thin lips slightly parted as if about to speak, Bai Xiaowei became anxious and stretched out her hand to silence him. However, she was not sure of the strength and stabbed his lips directly with her fingertips.

Little Ancestor, don’t talk now!

Gu Wenrui was stunned, and the gentle touch on his lips blocked all his unspoken words.

The fingers were slender and the tips were slightly cold. They were so fragile that they seemed to break with just a slight break, but he could not utter a single word.

Su Yixing watched helplessly as the slender hand pressed against Gu Wenrui's lips, feeling sad and frightened. He was afraid that Xiaowei would really be taken over by this guy with ulterior motives, and that he would be so favored by a beautiful woman.

"Ren Jian told me that you are unwilling to participate in the public prosecutor competition, and you are also rude and have a bad attitude, right?"

His tone was light, as if he was just asking for facts.

Why are you being slapped down?

Bai Xiaowei came to the ground angrily, and her voice suddenly rose: "How can Ren Jian confuse right and wrong? Is it because I said something rude, or does he treat me like a grandson?"

"Moreover, he broke his promise. He promised to stop the case for me and tricked me into participating in the competition. But in the end, the case was not stopped at all."

"Zhao Jian, do you know? After the game that day, everyone went to celebrate, but I was the only one who took a black cab and rushed back..."

"...There is only one day left, one day! I have to close two cases! They are still in jail and there is no trial. I am almost dying of anxiety. He just said lightly that I have a bad attitude at work. Unable to overcome difficulties.”

"Where can I go to reason with you?"

Bai Xiaowei couldn't control her emotions.

I have never seen such a bully. Why is her work attitude so bad?

If all difficulties can be overcome, is it still called a difficulty?

In this bad class, whoever falls in love with whomever falls in love, she doesn't care about it anymore.

"Zhao Jian, I want to retire my position. I quit."

"I'll write the application now and you'll approve it for me."

"Hello? Inspector Zhao? Are you listening?"

Bai Xiaowei talked for a long time, but when she saw no response from the other end of the phone, she called out uncertainly.

"Well, are you done?" It was still a calm tone and a questioning tone.

"...finished."

After Bai Xiaowei vented her anger, she suddenly realized something was wrong.

Done!

Originally, being embarrassed in front of Su Yixing and Gu Wenrui was enough to kill her, but she lost control and lost face in front of Zhao Jian.

Well, there were only a few good-looking men around her, and all of a sudden, they looked at her like monkeys, watching her being disciplined, jumping around, and showing off her sex...

Ugh, what should I do if I suddenly don’t want to live anymore?

"Look at your potential."

Zhao Jian's voice was very calm and seemed to have a little smile: "One sentence can break your defense. All the words I told you this morning are in vain, right?"

Bai Xiaowei murmured: "...It's not in vain, but it can't be changed overnight..."

Zhao Jian did not hold on to her, nor did he care about her gaffe just now.

"I have already communicated with the comrades in charge of the superior court about the public prosecutor competition. We still need to give newcomers a chance."

"Ah?" Bai Xiaowei was stunned, "Have you helped me solve it?"

Zhao Jian snorted: "Who said I was helping you? Didn't I say I was giving the newcomers a chance?"

Bai Xiaowei was surprised, happy, and indescribably moved.

In previous years, there had never been a rule that only newcomers were allowed to participate. This year, because she did not want to participate anymore, this restriction was suddenly added. She would not believe it if Zhao Jian was not secretly working for her!

After happiness, embarrassment remains.

"...Well, Zhao Jian, what I just said...well, I had a bad attitude...You sir have a lot of knowledge, don't be like me...I know I was wrong. , I will definitely change it!”

Seeing Bai Xiaowei apologizing timidly like a child who had done something wrong, Gu Wenrui felt extremely uncomfortable.

The man's eyebrows were gloomy, his thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and his jawline was tight, making the delicate facial features even deeper.

A pair of dark eyes were filled with turbulent waves, as if they were concerned about the endurance of the little woman in front of them, so they did not let the waves surge and engulf everything.

He took a step forward, wanting to take this poor little woman who could be stepped on by anyone into his arms and comfort her.

The ungrateful little woman leaned back and pushed him with her hand, looking panicked and at a loss.

Gu Wenrui was unhappy. She had agreed not to refuse his closeness, but she actually refused even a hug. Was she worried about Su Yixing?

Feeling even more unhappy, he shook off her little hand that was pushing against his chest, and took her into his arms regardless of her.

A powerful force came from behind, it was Su Yixing! He actually wanted to try to stop him?

Oh, what is the position of this latecomer?

Gu Wenrui didn't look back and waved his hand mercilessly towards his back.

Bai Xiaowei, who was dealing with Zhao Jian, felt her heart almost jump out of her mouth when she saw it.

She knew his skills. If this punch hit, Su Yixing would probably fall down immediately.

In desperation, she threw herself into the man's arms, hugged his waist tightly, and used all her strength to pull him forward so that his punch would not be so accurate.

The warm fragrance of nephrite in his arms undoubtedly pleased Gu Wenrui. He relaxed his strength slightly and moved forward slightly following her strength.

Su Yixing didn't expect that Gu Wenrui would do it as soon as he said it. He could barely avoid the fist that was thrown in front of him, but Xiaowei threw herself into Gu Wenrui's arms and was immediately stunned.

Bai Xiaowei threw herself into Gu Wenrui's arms, looked up over his shoulder, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Su Yixing was safe and sound.

Looking at Su Yixing apologetically, Bai Xiaowei felt ashamed and blamed herself.

Seeing the panic, embarrassment and self-blame in Bai Xiaowei's eyes, Su Yixing glanced at Gu Wenrui's tall back and smiled at her reassuringly, indicating that he was fine and didn't need to worry.

He thoughtfully walked to the door and locked the office door behind him to prevent anyone from coming in at this time.

Noticing Su Yixing's thoughtfulness, Bai Xiaowei was even more grateful - it had been like this every time in the past, no matter what happened, Yixing could always stand in her situation and put himself in her shoes.

After eight years of not seeing each other, he was still like this. Even though he was almost beaten just now, the first thing he thought of was the way she was being held by a man. Would it be broken by someone and have a negative impact on her?
