The compliments on the other end of the phone continued. Bai Xiaowei racked her brains and poured out all the beautiful words she could think of to greet Gu Wenrui. Gu Wenxuan and Lin Mei didn't know how to continue.

Although this brat is rebellious, disobedient, hangs out in nightclubs, and fools around every day... But after all, he is his biological brother. They can always see the few advantages in him and are not willing to hear about it. Someone spoke ill of their brother to his face.

However, they were not so blindly confident that everyone would like that brat who was not stingy.

At this moment, hearing the long list of compliments from outsiders, Gu Wenxuan and Lin Mei felt their cheeks warm.

"Cough cough."

Gu Wenxuan coughed twice and interrupted Bai Xiaowei: "...You are so complimentary. How can I not know what Xiaorui is like..."

Bai Xiaowei said righteously: "Maybe you have known each other longer than me, but I believe that knowing someone has nothing to do with time."

From the moment he appeared in her case file as the "male protagonist" and bravely saved a strange girl, his character was beyond question.

Gu Wenxuan didn't know where her inexplicable confidence came from. He wanted to say, how could knowing someone have nothing to do with time? He really wanted to ask if he had ever heard the saying "A journey can tell a horse's power, but time can tell a person's heart", but he felt it was inappropriate.

"What is your name?"

After all, he was wasting his words praising his younger brother for a long time. He couldn't even know the other person's last name. Besides, he was still the leader, so she had to rely on her to persuade him to go home.

"Bai Xiaowei."

Such a simple and clear self-introduction made Gu Wenxuan want to laugh: "Hello Prosecutor Bai, nice to meet you."

Bai Xiaowei said lightly: "Hello, what is your name?"

"Um..." Gu Wenxuan was speechless. He just said he was Xiao Rui's friend. He couldn't introduce his name now, could he? Gu Wenxuan and Gu Wenrui are brothers.

While he was hesitating, he saw his wife writing two big characters on the paper. He said smoothly: "Gu Leshan."

"..."

Bai Xiaowei's hand paused as she turned the pen. Do you think she was stupid? Gu Wenrui's courtesy name was Leshui, and suddenly a man calling himself Gu Leshan appeared and said he was Gu Wenrui's friend?

However, she didn't expose it and just smiled: "Okay Mr. Gu, when Wen Rui comes back, I will tell him to call you back."

Gu Wenxuan thanked him gently and politely.

After hanging up the phone, the smile on Bai Xiaowei's face gradually faded away - this call made it clear that the Gu family was about to come to their door.

Although she was reluctant to let go, it was time for her and Gu Wenrui to come to an end.

Just like what she told Su Yixing, she doesn't believe in fairy tales - she didn't believe it before, she doesn't believe it now, and she won't believe it in the future.

She has stumbled all the way and struggled to get to where she is now. She has always relied on her own efforts. She has never had the daydream of Cinderella marrying a prince, and she has never thought of relying on a man to change her destiny.

Although every step is difficult, it is extremely practical.

She thought, keep it down.

......

When she got off work in the afternoon, Bai Xiaowei received a call from Zhang Yuzhen.

"Miss Zhang, Jia Guiyu has approved the arrest."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuzhen's reaction to this key issue was dull: "Captain Fang told me."

Bai Xiaowei thought for a while: "Do you want to ask about the recovery and reparation of the stolen goods in the case? The public security organs have currently seized a total of 20 yuan in stolen money and will return it to you and Xu Xiaoying in proportion..."

Zhang Yuzhen interrupted Bai Xiaowei: "Prosecutor Bai, I called you because I thought of some details of the case and wanted to talk to you again."

Bai Xiaowei picked up the pen: "Okay, you tell me."

Zhang Yuzhen said, "I can't tell you clearly on the phone. I want to tell you in person."

Bai Xiaowei did not refuse: "That's okay, where is it convenient for you?"

Zhang Yuzhen probably wouldn't go to the cafe last time. Since he knew she had princess disease, Bai Xiaowei gave the initiative to her.

Zhang Yuzhen reported an address. Bai Xiaowei thought she was hearing hallucinations. She asked uncertainly: "Where did you say?"

"Construction site on the outskirts of town."

Bai Xiaowei put down her pen, her expression solemn, and her words were still gentle: "Why are you there? Give me a reason."

"If I can't get the jade back, my parents won't let me go home. I'm desperate."

"Prosecutor Bai, if you don't come, I can only choose a building and jump off."

Even though Zhang Yuzhen said that she was pathetic and pitiful, Bai Xiaowei still smelled a conspiracy.

She comforted her with a gentle voice: "Zhang Yuzhen, you are still young, how can a living person be dragged down by a dead thing? What your parents said was angry, don't think so hard."

Zhang Yuzhen's voice was filled with tears: "I don't care. If you don't come to the construction site in the suburbs, I will really jump off the building. You are a prosecutor. Do you have the heart to do this? If you don't care about me, no one will care about me." .”

Bai Xiaowei: "..."

"it is good."

Hearing this reply, Zheng Shiqing felt completely relieved.

"Miss Zheng, I have done what you asked me to do. When will I get my jade back?"

Zheng Shiqing smiled harmlessly, ignoring the bloody scratches on her face, her smile was very pure.

"Why are you in a hurry? Didn't I already pay the deposit for you? When Bai Xiaowei actually arrives at the agreed place, I will transfer the remaining money to you."

Although Zhang Yuzhen was anxious, she was still very grateful to her when she thought that Zheng Shiqing had indeed helped her pay a deposit at the Honest Pawn Shop and solved her urgent need.

"Thank you. If it weren't for you today, my jade would have been bought by someone."

Zheng Shiqing's smile hinted at pride: "You're welcome, this is what we should do as lawyers."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuzhen's face was full of dissatisfaction: "Both the police and the procuratorate have disappointed me so much. What do you mean by serving the people? They clearly withheld the stolen money but said they needed to follow the procedures before it can be refunded. They clearly found my jade but didn't return it to me." .”

"If you ask me, they must have taken advantage of Jia Guiyu, colluded with him, and oppressed innocent and kind people."

"It would have been nice if I had asked you to represent me on this case from the beginning, and I would have saved myself so many detours."

Zheng Shiqing stirred the coffee and listened quietly to Zhang Yuzhen's complaints, adding fuel to the fire from time to time.

"Don't blame the police. It's very hard for them to investigate and collect evidence. Moreover, once the case reaches the procuratorate, it won't matter what they say. The prosecutor still has to make the decision."

"In the final analysis, it is the prosecutor in your case who did not act, and it has nothing to do with the police."

"I think after this matter is over, you can write a report letter to report this prosecutor..."

"...It can't be called reporting. As ordinary people, we have the obligation to provide some constructive opinions for the construction of the rule of law in our country..."

"You don't have to feel burdened. This is a good thing. The higher-ups are happy to listen to people's opinions..."
