She is a bit hard to chase as a partner

"Go back to the law firm?" Xing Yunduo asked Tang Qian after the trial was over.The pretty sister's face has returned to calm, and she can't see the turmoil in her heart during the trial just now.

Tang Qian's beautiful eyebrows and eyes were bent, and when she raised them again, there was already some pleasant joking: "Then what are you trying to do? I'm not waiting for your salary. After a few hours of court session, why don't you do something else?" , and go back to continue looking at the case? Have you forgotten that you had a headache that day?"

Xing Yunduo looked at her suspiciously, obviously unable to understand Tang Qian's brain circuit at this moment: "Other, what else is it?"

"Eat a meal or watch a movie." She took the initiative and took Xing Yunduo's hand.

Xing Yunduo's eyes lit up immediately, and his brows completed a crescent moon.A few seconds later, Xing Yunduo clicked on a picture on his phone.This is a cute picture that I have seen N times on the Internet. A little girl is covering the mouth of another little girl, and their blank spaces are a bunch of "eating hot pot", "making handsome guys", "drinking milk tea", "Lunch" and "No, you don't want to" in the uppermost corner.

"Choose one, choose one!" Regardless of whether he was still at the gate of the court or the reporter hadn't left, the man was as happy as a flower, tiptoed to put the phone in front of him, and said excitedly.

"Who would choose like this?" Tang Qian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she still let her act like a baby.She also let her hold his hand firmly.

"Then close your eyes and click one, click one, click one and click one!" Xing Yunduo was still on tiptoe, talking excitedly.Anyway, the case was over, so she didn't care if anyone was watching.

At that moment, Tang Qian really had a sweet feeling in her heart, just like the words "sweet", "sweet to death", and "so big sugar" floating in the videos of station B that Xing Yunduo watched Such a feeling.She knew it was because of the excited look in front of her.

This man is really happy.

And what about myself?I can really make her happy, and I can also make myself happy because of the other person's happiness.So what was she struggling with?They have wasted a long time, but now, they can come back bit by bit.

So, she followed Xing Yunduo's closed eyes and ordered one casually. When she opened her eyes, she saw the corners of Xing Yunduo's mouth slightly drooping.

"Didn't you choose the one you like?" After many years of tacit understanding, Tang Qian understood immediately.

"Lu Chuan Chuan, I don't like eating Chuan Chuan too much, but it's more... troublesome." She puffed her cheeks, but immediately jumped up again, "But it's okay, as long as I go with you. With you, what to eat It's all right."

This is the second time in a day that Tang Qian nodded her head lightly: "Forget about being lazy. When the time comes, I'll pick it off for you if it really doesn't work."

"Okay!" Once again, the partner stood on tiptoe, smiling as if he was no longer in the courtroom but at the scene of winning the 500 million grand prize.

They finally chose a restaurant about two kilometers away from the court.Xing Yunduo ate a big bowl of fruit beer and Tang Qian's handpicked skewers.When she stopped, there was already a pile of wooden skewers in front of her.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten like this. Thank you, Tangtang, for picking the skewers for me." The beauty narrowed her eyes, with a satisfied expression on her face.

"What you said last time, about your past, I want to ask a little bit more, mind?" When she went back to the riverside last time, she wanted to ask more, but Xing Yunduo's state at that time was not suitable for asking more.

Xing Yunduo shook his head: "You can ask whatever you want, whether it's your weight or anything else. I didn't mind it when I was in my early twenties, but I don't mind it now. But even though I said I don't mind, it's a private matter, and it's not about anyone else. You can ask anything. Of course, if you ask, there is no problem at all."

"What did you mean in court just now, that the most uncomfortable time for you was not when you were bullied by those bastards but after you went back and beat them? To be honest, I can't understand this. When you said it last time In fact, I already have this question, it stands to reason that you have gone back to the past with violence, why do you say you don't want to live anymore?" Tang Qian asked her.

"It's very simple, just think about it carefully," Xing Yunduo put down his chopsticks, and said a little seriously, "You just punched back and beat you up, and you are so ruthless that no one dares to provoke you anymore. Then, Campus bullying is gone, congratulations, you have entered another stage, loneliness. Absolute loneliness."

Tang Qian was puzzled: "You can have new friends, can't you? Besides, during the time you were being bullied, didn't you have other friends?"

Xing Yunduo smiled: "Yes, but when I choose to use violence to control violence and succeed, I have no friends."

The puzzlement in Tang Qian's eyes faded away, and she once again felt the pain she felt in court.

Xing Yunduo's expression became completely serious, but his words were still gentle, and this gentleness might only be for her: "Actually, this is really a very simple truth, but it took me several years to understand it. When The moment you succeed in controlling violence with violence, you don't make your bullies dare to bully you, but you make everyone afraid to approach you, including your former friends."

"Go on."

The voice of the beauty was far away and a little unreal: "People are creatures that seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, especially children. The reason why I am bullied on campus and no one helps me to fight is because according to the law of the jungle, those who bully me Powerful, no one is willing to take this risk for me. And when I succeeded in controlling violence with violence, that powerful person became me. Who dares to make friends with such a person? Today I choose to fight back, is the range What’s within is acceptable to others. But what about tomorrow? The day after tomorrow? Those who make friends with me like this, won’t worry that one day I’ll throw my fist up, and it’s not him or her?”

"During that time, it was the loneliest time for me. The obvious bullying disappeared and turned into alienation, and I didn't know why I was so uncomfortable during that time until very later. It was because this alienation was not the same as before. Like the bullying that happened on purpose, it was a completely unintentional act. The people that the innocent people feared, went from being the one who bullied me, to being me. They just avoided me like this, and if I insisted on walking in, they would be scared leave."

"Is it cool? It's very cool. At that time, I experienced the feeling of being at the top of the food chain. I felt that I could do whatever I wanted in this class. But unfortunately, people are a kind of social animal. Loneliness, for me as a teenager, was fatal."

Tang Qian's eyes dimmed as these words slowly dimmed, and she found it difficult to ask questions: "So, that drifting bottle really saved you."

The beauty's face came back to life: "That's right, I think God is actually quite good to me."

Tang Qian's face froze, and he spoke bitterly again: "That's it, you still agree?"

The other party poked him with a smile, as if he didn't care about the past at all: "Sister, don't be so frustrated, then I will ask you a question, where am I now, am I pretty?" After finishing speaking, he got up and turned around.

"Very beautiful." There was still bitterness in the partner's smile.

The beauty's cute side face: "My psychiatrist told me that I will be more frustrated than ordinary people when I come out of this experience. I have black life force in me. Those who can't kill What you do makes you stronger, it's true."

Before Tang Qian could reply, she heard her say again: "Look, for example, I told you that I like you, but you didn't promise me after so long, didn't I live well? Of course, now you promise I'm happy, I'm happier."

"In the future, I will always be here." Tang Qian quietly shaved several strings.

"Ah?!" Xing Yunduo was not used to the sudden sweet talk.

"I mean, you won't be lonely in the future, I will always be with you. We have known you for so long, and no one knows you better than me." The partner put a candy directly into her beer, took Get up and place it before her eyes.

"Do you want to drink?" She held the glass of beer with sugar in front of Xing Yunduo.

"Drink, drink!" The beauty just took a sip in her posture.Then, she felt a heat on her lips, it was Tang Qian who kissed her beer-stained lips.

"Very sweet." The beautiful sister smiled.

At that moment, the cold beauty who had always been eloquent, seemed to have been fooled and was speechless.

***

The day of Tao Tao's first trial was at the end of October, and there was no scent of sweet-scented osmanthus in the air, but he could see large golden leaves when he looked up.Xing Yunduo went to listen to the sentencing. According to the court's decision, the payment made by Li and other five parties was not included in Tao Tao's criminal proceeds, and she lost at least five years of her sentence.

This is a good result for her career.Colleagues are well aware of how useful defense lawyers can be in criminal cases.It is no small victory to be able to reduce the sentence by so much.

But obviously, Tao Tao didn't think so.

Meeting again in the detention center, the atmosphere was not pleasant.Tao Tao yelled at Xing Yunduo, saying that I refunded so much money, isn't it still the result now?Am I still going to be jailed for 3 years?I paid you, what the hell did you do?Let's talk about the things that happened more than ten years ago.This pretty woman sneered and said to the person in front of her, "I know, how could you be so kind to help me? I'm going to change my lawyer to appeal to me, and I'm going to sue you!"

"Whatever!" Leng Meier put the document of rescission in front of her, and she signed her name without saying a word.

When I walked out of the detention center, the sky was washed blue, and everything I saw was bright gold.The cold beauty raised the corners of her mouth happily, she knew that at this moment, all the haze of that past had finally dissipated.

Good and evil are a choice, and whether to let yourself go is also a choice.After three years in high school, she chose to let herself go.At this moment of being a lawyer, she chose the greatest kindness that the profession required.

As for love, the person who once thought that the world was full of malice and that no one around him was trustworthy finally chose to believe in love and love someone.I still like it, and I have liked it for so many years.

And the person she liked also kissed her.

At this time, what else can't pass?

She remembered a drama she was watching recently, "The Distance Between Us and Evil".Perhaps the distance between everyone and evil is not too far.But in the same way, does anyone think of an opposite proposition——

The distance between us and goodness has never been far away.

There is light and shadow behind us, but I believe that the nearest light can dispel the deepest shadow.
