After saving Bai Yueguang's substitute

【Xu Zhinian's Diary-24】

August 2022, 5, sunny

Today is May 5, 20.

Of course, according to my guess, Mr. Jiang should not know the meaning of this day.

After all, his character is so indifferent, he rarely pays attention to these young and popular things.

Even so, I still prepared a gift for Mr. Jiang, and a romantic candlelight dinner (don’t complain about this cliché, I cooked all the dishes myself!)

To my surprise, when I sent a gift, Mr. Jiang actually returned a gift to me (he actually knew this day!!! Surprise!!!)

The gift is a pair of plush dolls of a tiger and a fox.

???

What does it mean to send a doll?

Do I look so childish?

I asked Mr. Jiang why he sent this.

Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "Because I am a big tiger, and you are my little fox."

……All right.

So, after the candlelight dinner, the little fox said loudly to the big tiger: "520!"

……

Mr. Jiang: Then the little fox was eaten by the big tiger.

The rain stopped after only a short while.

The ground outside was still wet, probably feeling that the room was too stuffy, so many people came out and chatted in twos and threes.

The vegetation on both sides shook occasionally, and rainwater rolled down the leaves.

I walked up to Cui Gaoyang.

Xu Zhinian followed me step by step.

1625

After walking in, I realized that the man who was talking to Cui Gaoyang looked familiar.

It looks like an investor, probably met once in a business occasion.

It seems that the surname is... Yang?

They seemed to be talking about the investment projects of the law firm. When I approached, I heard a few words.

It seems that Mr. Yang is so interested in Cui Gaoyang's law firm.

"Boss Jiang!" He yelled immediately when he saw me.

Cui Gaoyang also had an expression of surprise on his face, and then it turned into joy.

"Jiang always comes to look for me?" Cui Gaoyang asked.

I raised my eyebrows and nodded.

Mr. Yang next to him said unexpectedly: "Mr. Jiang also has investment intentions in Lawyer Cui's law?"

"That's not true." I shook my head.

The two couldn't help but have some doubts about my purpose.

1627

Xu Zhinian was standing behind me, it was impossible not to see it from Cui Gaoyang's perspective.

Only he didn't recognize it.

1628

Xu Zhinian has changed a lot.

I still remember how skinny and bruised he was when he was first rescued from the fire.

At that time, he was frighteningly thin, his skin was as white as a ghost, and his whole body was full of gloom and fragility. When you looked at him, you could feel the despair and depression.

Now he has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Under Mrs. Wang's nourishing soup, his body became much rounder, and his skin was still fair, but it was healthy and rosy white.

His personality has also changed, from cautious, restrained and gloomy to cheerful and relaxed, much more generous.

Many things that he would not do or dare not do before, are now sometimes done to shock people.

Occasionally, he would come to make trouble for me, without worrying that I would get angry.

1629

I used to think that his change was back to his college days, to the carefree him three years ago.

It does not appear to be the case now.

Compared with three years ago, he has also grown a lot.

Today's him, under the subtle influence of Jiang Shengsheng and me, is no longer the poor and white college student in his aesthetics and appearance.

1630

I looked in Xu Zhinian's direction.

He is wearing the off-white shirt I picked for him today, the neckline and buttons are neatly trimmed, the sleeves are folded up, and the black trousers are very close-fitting, outlining his slender legs.

This outfit is clean and refreshing, without too many accessories all over the body, but it looks extremely well-behaved.

It had just finished raining, and the night wind picked up a little bit, blowing his bangs, revealing a little of his forehead.

His hair was done by Jiang Shengsheng, who gave him a fluffy hairstyle, which made his face more delicate and his temperament was completely new.

Anyone who sees Xu Zhinian like this will only think that the young master from some family has come.

1631

Mr. Yang followed my gaze, noticed Xu Zhinian, and asked, "Is this Mr. Jiang's friend?"

I nodded slightly, then turned to Cui Gaoyang and said, "He seems to be an old acquaintance with you."

Mr. Yang: "Huh? Why didn't Lawyer Cui mention it?"

Cui Gaoyang was also taken aback, then looked at Xu Zhinian seriously, and frowned: "Are you...?"

"Lawyer Cui may not remember." Xu Zhinian smiled at him and said, "We are college classmates, my name is Xu Zhinian."

Cui Gaoyang's expression suddenly changed.

1632

I spent all my time watching Cui Gaoyang's face change.

This feeling is very strange, I was pleased, and I felt a secret sense of refreshment in my heart.

It's like watching the protagonist of a TV series go through hardships and finally get revenge.

1633

"So it's an old classmate!" Mr. Yang suddenly said, "Mr. Xu, like Cui Gaoyang, also studied the Fa?"

Xu Zhinian nodded: "Not only are we in the same major, we were in the same dormitory back then."

Mr. Yang said: "The relationship should be very good."

After a pause, he looked at Cui Gaoyang with some doubts: "Why didn't Mr. Cui recognize it just now?"

Cui Gaoyang forced a smile: "He, he has changed so much in the past few years, I didn't expect it for a while."

Xu Zhinian said meaningfully: "I have indeed experienced many things in these years, and it is normal for him not to recognize it."

Cui Gaoyang's forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

1634

President Yang chatted with Xu Zhinian.

"Mr. Xu should also be a lawyer?" Mr. Yang asked.

Xu Zhinian tactfully replied: "My goal is to become an excellent lawyer."

Mr. Yang smiled and said, "I think Mr. Xu is very good now."

"Mr. Yang is absurd." Xu Zhinian said, "I still have a lot to learn."

Mr. Yang: "I don't know where Mr. Xu is a senior?"

"Longtai Law Firm."

"Longtai!" Mr. Yang exclaimed, "That's a big law firm."

Xu Zhinian said: "Mr. Yang seems to be very interested in the law firm?"

"Yes." Mr. Yang laughed twice, and said, "My previous ideal was to be a lawyer, but unfortunately I didn't have the talent to study law. Those legal provisions made me dizzy, so I had to retreat. Second, learn finance and inherit the family business.”

Xu Zhinian smiled, but did not speak.

Mr. Yang was a little anxious: "What? You don't believe it?"

"No." Xu Zhinian said, "I'm just a little surprised. After all, being a lawyer is not an easy job."

Mr. Yang said: "Which industry is easy? I always think that lawyers are a profession that protects rights and justice. They hold the sword of the law, do justice, punish evil and promote good. I am so fascinated. !"

Xu Zhinian had a good chat with him: "I didn't expect Mr. Yang to be so affectionate."

Now, he read it again in a low voice: "Execute the sword of the law, do what is just... that's right."

Mr. Yang cheered: "Yes!" Then he turned his head and patted Cui Gaoyang on the back, "Lawyer Cui, do you think so?"

"Ah?" Cui Gaoyang was restless, and he answered in a daze after being called, "Yes... President Yang is right."

1635

Cui Gaoyang's distraught appearance is too hard to ignore, even Mr. Yang, who has a somewhat carefree personality, can see that something is wrong.

He looked at Cui Gaoyang, who had a pale face, and then at Xu Zhinian and me, and his conversations gradually became less and less.

Cui Gaoyang couldn't stay any longer, so he found a reason and ran away in a hurry.

Mr. Yang frowned slightly, showing a puzzled and dissatisfied expression.

Fortunately, he had a good impression of Xu Zhinian.

"It's a pity that Mr. Xu is in Longtai. If you have the idea of ​​becoming a partner and starting a lawyer, I want to invest."

I raised my eyebrows: "That may not be Mr. Yang's turn."

Mr. Yang paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "That's right, blame me, blame me for forgetting that Mr. Xu is still Mr. Jiang's friend. One day, Mr. Jiang will naturally have to come first."

Xu Zhinian blinked: "Wait a few more years, maybe there is such a chance."

"That's right!" Mr. Yang said, "A talent like Mr. Xu will naturally not be willing to be an ordinary lawyer. When Mr. Jiang eats meat, remember to let me drink soup too."

We couldn't help laughing after we finished speaking.

1636

After parting from Mr. Yang, Xu Zhinian commented: "He is a very interesting person."

"There are details in the rough." I nodded, "It looks carefree and careless, but it is actually very good at observing words and demeanor."

Xu Zhinian was curious: "How?"

I said: "Look at his attitude towards Cui Gaoyang, and his attitude towards you after we came. You appreciate it carefully."

Xu Zhinian: "..."

I said again: "The key point is that you haven't felt this kind of discrimination from him."

Xu Zhinian said depressedly: "Do all of you who are engaged in finance have seven or eight heart openings?"

I smiled: "You are still too young, unfortunately Cui Gaoyang was scared away by you too early, I want to appreciate his purple face for a while longer."

Xu Zhinian couldn't help but said: "I think he was scared away by you, but I'm just pretending to be a tiger."

I reached out and scratched his nose.

"Okay, little fox."

"..."

1637

"But I think so," Xu Zhinian leaned over and leaned his head on my shoulder, "It's like a fox pretending to be a tiger..."

"What?" I raised my eyebrows.

Xu Zhinian laughed, "It's pretty cool."

1638

I put my arm around his shoulders.

If possible, I would like to be his backing and protect him from wind and rain.

I am willing to be his tiger forever.

The author has something to say: Xu Xiaohu: It feels really cool to be a fox pretending to be a tiger!

Jiang Dahu: Really? (Then see the last sentence of the diary)

This chapter is about foxes and tigers.
