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

"How's the court going?"

Li Haoxuan took on a criminal case during this business trip.

The defendant is from their hometown and works in J City, which is very close to Beijing. The family members did not know much about J City, so they hired Li Haoxuan, a well-known local lawyer, to be their defender.

After accepting the commission, Li Haoxuan rushed to J City with Xiao Zheng.

Reviewing files, meeting, and communicating with prosecutors and judges many times about evidence and procedures.

Everything was ready, but two days before the trial, he hurried back because of Li Qianwen's matter.

Fortunately, I took Xiao Zheng with me when I went out this time, and Xiao Zheng appeared in court for him. Otherwise, he would have run back before the trial. No matter how much work he did before the trial, if he did not appear in court to defend, his family would definitely make a fuss - it would be a hassle to withdraw the attorney. If you go to the Lawyers Association and file a complaint against him, he won't be able to bear the consequences and just walk away.

"With your sufficient preparation before the trial, of course there will be no problem," Xiao Zheng said playfully with a smile in his voice, "The trial went very smoothly. The judge accepted our defense opinions and praised our defense opinions for being accurately cited. , The reasoning is sufficient.”

"That's good."

Although he had known the result for a long time, Li Haoxuan was really relieved at this moment.

Because this case was in a different place, he had never had any dealings with the judicial officers of City J. He did not know their handling habits, so he could only focus on the case, starting from the case itself, analyzing it piece by piece, and checking the latest and most authoritative information. Judicial interpretations, cases, and defense opinions.

"Brother Haoxuan, you are so awesome. Not only are you highly capable, but you are also so dedicated. You are truly a role model for our generation."

The relaxation behind the court made Xiao Zheng talk more.

"This is what I should do. I am not a role model! Instead, I want to thank you for your hard work this time!"

Everyone likes to hear good things, and Li Haoxuan is no exception. He smiles and is modest.

"Oh, Brother Haoxuan, what are you talking about?"

Xiao Zheng's voice was a little anxious, with an innocence that didn't understand the world.

"You are a well-known barrister, and I am just a newbie. I am really grateful that you are willing to guide me and give me the opportunity to learn. Brother Haoxuan, please don't say such outlandish words again in the future."

Li Haoxuan smiled: "As long as you are not afraid of hardship, you will be able to get ahead in no time."

Xiao Zheng's voice became solemn: "Brother Haoxuan, I have never thought about getting ahead or anything. I just want to learn from you for a few more years and lay a solid foundation, so that I can be independent and go further like you."

"Haha, I heard it. You want to steal all these things from me. The little girl is very ambitious."

Li Haoxuan admires Xiao Zheng's eagerness to learn and endure hardship, and his down-to-earth energy when he first entered the industry.

"No, Brother Haoxuan, I didn't want to steal, I just wanted to learn more..."

Xiao Zheng was afraid of being misunderstood by Li Haoxuan, so he hurriedly explained.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Please be safe on your way back and have a safe journey."

After hanging up the phone, Li Haoxuan put away his phone. When he raised his head, he met three pairs of curious eyes.

"Brother, who was that just now?"

Li Qianwen vaguely heard the clear and sweet female voice on the other end of the phone, and saw her brother chatting and laughing, and couldn't help but be curious.

"This is my assistant Xiao Zheng. He just became a formal lawyer this year. He is much younger than you, but he is very diligent and studious. You, don't just think about being lazy all day long. Fubao is going to kindergarten soon, you should also go out and find a job Already working."

Li Haoxuan's words gave his sister face.

In fact, Fu Bao has always been taken care of by his mother, and whether he can go to kindergarten or not will not affect his sister's job hunting.

"Oh, I know, brother, you are annoying, you will teach me a lesson in one day."

Li Qianwen muttered dissatisfiedly, expecting to hear tidbits about her brother. It would be great if a little vixen seduced her brother, so Bai Xiaowei could only cry.

Who knew that the topic suddenly turned to him, and he was scolded by his brother.

"Xiaoxuan, don't criticize Xiaowen. It's so complicated outside now, and Xiaowen is too simple. She won't worry about her going out to work."

Mother Li saw her son preaching to her daughter and quickly helped.

Ugh.

Li Haoxuan sighed in his heart. A spoiled child is like a spoiled child, but his mother vividly explained this sentence.

However, his father died young and it was not easy for his mother to drag him and his sister to grow up. How could he bear to disobey his mother's wishes.

"By the way, Xiaoxuan, how will Xiaowen's matter be dealt with in the end?"

"Mom, don't worry. I asked someone to inquire. Xiaowen and Hongwei are both first-time offenders, and they have not caused any actual harmful consequences. They should just criticize and educate them. The results will come out in about two or three days."

Hearing what Li Haoxuan said, Li's mother, Li Qianwen, and Zhang Hongwei all breathed a sigh of relief and let go of their worries.

"Huh, without Bai Xiaowei's help, I would still be fine."

Li Qianwen snorted arrogantly.

Li Haoxuan stopped his chopsticks and looked at Li Qianwen with a frown:

"What's your name, Bai Xiaowei? I've told you so many times that she's your sister-in-law."

"What sister-in-law? Is there anyone like her who is a sister-in-law? She went to the disciplinary inspection team to report Xiaowen, hoping that Xiaowen would be punished. She knew that Xiaowen was being investigated by the disciplinary inspection team, but ignored her. How is she different from a stranger? ? Not as good as our downstairs neighbor, who always cares about Xiaowen when we meet."

Li's mother took over the conversation, and her words were filled with dissatisfaction and complaints about Bai Xiaowei.

Completely ignoring that Bai Xiaowei is also being investigated by the disciplinary inspection team because of this matter and needs to avoid suspicion.

"The neighbors don't care about Xiaowen, they just want to watch a good show."

Zhang Hongwei, who had been silent, said that he knew he was in trouble this time, but he didn't expect that his mother-in-law and Li Qianwen would put all the blame on Bai Xiaowei, blaming her for not helping, and never considering whether they caused trouble for Bai Xiaowei.

He is not partial to Bai Xiaowei, he just feels that his mother-in-law and Li Qianwen have been interfering with Li Haoxuan's marriage. If one day they really interfere with him and get divorced, Li Haoxuan's family will not be stable, which will inevitably affect his career. How will he have time to help them?

If Li Haoxuan marries another powerful wife, it's hard to say whether his mother-in-law can continue to help them.

Although Bai Xiaowei is also very powerful, she is sensible, not the kind of person who messes around, and is very generous. In addition, she has never given birth to a child for the Li family, so she will tolerate Li Qianwen in everything.

It's a pity that neither mother-in-law nor Xiaowen can see this. They always make excuses for Bai Xiaowei's infertility, suppressing and criticizing Bai Xiaowei everywhere.

"Okay, you guys need to eat quickly and go to work."

Mother Li glared at her son-in-law, dissatisfied with his behavior in exposing her.

Li Haoxuan listened to his mother complaining about his wife, but never opened his mouth to explain to his wife.

His phone buzzed, and he took it out and saw that it was a WeChat message from Xiao Zheng:

[I have boarded the plane. See you at Longsheng Shopping Mall in three hours. 】

Li Haoxuan replied "Okay".

He took out his mobile phone and clicked on his wife's WeChat profile picture. The conversation between the two was still three days ago, during which there was no care or greeting.

He sneered, isn't it just a cold war? Who is afraid of whom?
