The right way to break up with a lawyer
Chapter 32
[I have tasted good, why should I settle for it? 】
That night, Jian Shaojun and Zhao Ling still stayed in the Jin family's mansion, not because they didn't want to leave, but when they just got to the car, the butler who stood by at some point stepped out of the night and said, "Mr. When you come to the Jin family as a guest, the young master must do his best to be a landlord."
Jian Shaojun frowned: "You should tell Jin Chengye about this, but I think Mr. Zhao has already felt the friendship of the young master as a landlord."
Zhao Ling watched the butler's thin and stooped body swaying slightly in the cold wind, and couldn't bear to tug Jian Shaojun's sleeve. Jian Shaojun looked down and saw the fingers grabbing his sleeve, and the sarcasm on his face subsided slightly.
The butler didn't take it seriously, with a gentle smile: "Master already knows about this matter, and I'm sorry, please invite Mr. Zhao to have breakfast alone tomorrow." Then he glanced at Jian Shaojun who was suppressing his temper, "Don't worry, Master, Master is very happy." Appreciate Mr. Zhao."
"What does father want to talk about?" Jian Shaojun's anger hovered around the edge, but he still suppressed it.The old man is different from Jin Chengye's paper tiger, who is a wily old fox.He has been in the business world for sixty years, not an ordinary old fox, but a fox who has become a master.Reminiscent of Zhao Ling's evaluation of himself, Jian Shaojun corrected in his mind, if he is a fox who has become a spirit, then that one is an old demon fox who has attained enlightenment.
"Don't worry, young master, it will definitely not be the topic of today." The housekeeper bowed, "Someone will wake Mr. Zhao up tomorrow morning. Master has been having a bad appetite for a while, and thanks to Mr. Zhao's blessing, he ate a lot more today. , Mr. Zhao will be in trouble tomorrow morning."
Speaking of this, Zhao Ling couldn't refuse anymore, but he still asked Jian Shaojun with his eyes, and Jian Shaojun nodded slightly.After Zhao Ling captured it from the corner of his eye, he smiled at the butler and said, "I don't dare to be that, it's my honor to have dinner with Mr. Jin."
The butler didn't know if he saw their small movements, but he only knew that the creases at the end of his eyes deepened because of his smile: "Then don't bother the two young masters." Then he bowed and retreated into the night, just like when he came Just as silently.
Leaning on the car body, Jian Shaojun exhaled, watching the white smoke billowing in the air and finally being swallowed by the night, he couldn't help laughing wryly: "Is there any smoke?"
Zhao Ling did have one, it was given to him by Bai Qu before, but Zhao Ling was not addicted to cigarettes, so he didn't smoke at that time and just kept it in his pocket.
Jian Shaojun took the cigarette and held it between his lips, pressed the car window and reached into the window, and took out a lighter on the center console.
When the lighter was ignited, the chill was dispelled for a brief moment, but the oil in the lighter was almost bottomed out, and the flame was clearly extinguished, and was extinguished by the cold wind as soon as it touched it, as if he deliberately didn't want Jian Shaojun to smoke that cigarette Same.
"I'll do it." Zhao Ling took the lighter, blocked the wind with one hand and lit the cigarette that Jian Shaojun was biting between his lips with the other, and Jian Shaojun's head turned towards Zhao Ling naturally.
The sparks were bright, and the rustling sound could be heard clearly in the lonely night. The two of them were very close to each other, their cold noses were in close proximity, and those dark gray eyes were full of loneliness and depression. When Zhao Ling wanted to take a closer look, When it was real, a mist was between them.Zhao Ling reached out to remove the cigarette from Jian Shaojun's lips, and took a deep breath with his backhand.The smoke between the two became thicker, but Zhao Ling felt that he could clearly see the silence in those eyes.
Jian Shaojun chuckled lightly, and the laughter overflowed from his nasal cavity. He pinched the cigarette and took it from Zhao Ling's lips, and the two wet traces happened to overlap in one place.
The callused thumb lightly scratched Zhao Ling's jaw, and then sank into the corner of Zhao Ling's lips. When Zhao Ling opened his lips slightly uncontrollably, Jian Shaojun raised his hand and took a puff of cigarette and then He leaned over and passed the puff of smoke.
The slightly bitter vegetation was burned in the mouth and spread from the throat, burning away the loneliness that had nowhere to rest.After the smell of grass faded, it was replaced by a slightly warm woody aroma. Zhao Ling was familiar with this smell, and even more familiar with its owner.The cigarette burns slowly at Jian Shaojun's fingertips, and the invisible smoke floats in the night, and then the cigarette falls to the ground, and the fingers with a faint nicotine burn pinch the cool chin, and the taste turns into plunder in an instant.
The sound of water stains gradually drowned out the sound of burning cigarettes, and when the smoke that fell on the ground gradually extinguished, it seemed that their loneliness was also reduced to ashes by the intense heat at this moment.
Zhao Ling didn't know how he got back to the old house, nor how he got into the bedroom. What remained in his memory were the staggering steps and the woody aroma that turned from weak to strong.
In a daze, Zhao Ling only had one thought - would it be rude if he didn't wear a suit for breakfast the next day?
Facts have proved that the quality of the dresses made by Bai Qu is still very good, at least there is no tearing of the fabric, and even the buttons are only torn loose individually.It's just that no matter how good the quality of the dress is, it is absolutely impossible to wear it to meet Mr. Jin. Zhao Ling stared at the crumpled and ambiguous shirt in his hand, and resolutely gave up.
"I have it in the closet." At some point, Jian Shaojun, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes, and he didn't know how much he looked at. The smile on his lips seemed extraordinarily comfortable.Zhao Ling wanted to put on a sullen face, but failed several times, and it was difficult to suppress the smile between his brows and eyes after a night? Spring?
What Jian Shaojun said was right, he did have clothes in his closet, but after changing, Zhao Ling looked at himself in the full-length mirror and couldn't help but raise his forehead: "You don't have clothes that look more mature?"
"I barely lived here after high school."
Behind Zhao Ling, Jian Shaojun propped himself up while speaking, allowing the pure black silk covering his back to slip off, Zhao Ling swallowed, and forcibly moved his eyes away from the beautiful scenery in the full-length mirror.
Beauty misleads the country, the ancients do not deceive me, if I continue to look at it, it will be miserable if the suit on Lian's body is ruined.
Zhao Ling tidied up the white shirt on his body, tugged at the hem of the light blue jeans, and said casually, "Then your clothes are still in good condition." As he spoke, Zhao Ling turned his head and sniffed at the collar, "It can still smell a little bit of fragrance."
Hearing this, Jian Shaojun was stunned for a long time, then sighed after a while, and said in a very light tone: "Generally, when the seasons change, the housekeeper will take care of all the clothes at home."
"Hey, I think that housekeeper is good, compared with others." After solving the clothes problem, Zhao Ling looked at the room in a relaxed manner. The decoration of the room itself is clean and simple. White and logs are the main colors, and the overall tone is warmer. .However, almost all the objects added later are black, forming a strong personal style.The style of this room is different from that of Jian Shaojun's home, but inexplicably, Zhao Ling felt that this room actually showed Jian Shaojun's character more than Jian Shaojun's home.
The aggressiveness is extremely strong, but this kind of aggression does not show off at all, it is more like a kind of stubbornness, like pines and cypresses drilled out of the cracks in the rocks, domineering and fierce.
"He took good care of me when I was young." Jian Shaojun rubbed his eyebrows, "It's just that something happened later, and he became estranged."
What happened?
Zhao Ling didn't ask, in fact, even if he didn't ask, he could guess it more or less.
From Mr. Jin, to Jin Chengye, to attendants, to Baiqu, and then to the housekeeper, all kinds of people have actually conveyed this message with their words and actions, that is——
Jian Shaojun is an extremely special existence in this family.
Zhao Ling didn't know that this special was different from his own, but what he was sure of was that this special did not bring Jian Shaojun any good memories.
Just as he was distracted, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the butler came from outside the door: "Master Zhao, are you awake?"
Just as Zhao Ling was about to respond, he suddenly took a deep breath, and turned his head to Jian Shaojun stiffly: "Is this your room?"
Although Jian Shaojun didn't know the reason for Zhao Ling's question, he still nodded.
Zhao Ling's eyes widened suddenly, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, his voice was extremely low to ensure that people outside could not hear: "Then how does he know that I live in your room?"
"Well..." Jian Shaojun laughed lightly, "Maybe it's because we feel that we cooperate closely and have deep feelings for each other?"
Hell work closely!Zhao Ling opened the door stiffly, then closed the door behind him, looked at the old housekeeper who was waiting at the side and managed to squeeze out a stiff smile: "The company has an important contract to revise, so I can only trouble Jian Lv early in the morning. "
The old butler's smile was very kind, but Zhao Ling could see a bit of banter, and he swore he heard laughter coming from behind the door panel.
Laugh ass!Wasn't it you who was unlucky when the car overturned?Although Jian Shaojun is an adopted son, this is a wealthy family.Zhao Ling could imagine a stormy night, the old man slapped a check of 500 million in front of his face and immediately terminated the cooperative relationship with Jian Shaojun, otherwise he would sever the father-son relationship with Jian Shaojun and drive Jian Shaojun out of the house.
Is 500 million considered liquidated damages?Does this count as force majeure to terminate the contract?
Zhao Ling walked stiffly and followed the old housekeeper all the way to a warm room on the second floor while thinking wildly.
To Zhao Ling's surprise, the furnishings here are surprisingly simple, from the table to the stools are made of bamboo, and Mr. Jin is wearing a light gray double-breasted linen jacket.
"Put on more." Zhao Ling reminded reflexively, his ears turned red when he came back to his senses, this is not some old man walking around in the neighbor's house, this is the business world in City B that would turn over every time he stomped his feet predators.
Jin Boshan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Sit, sit, sit."
Zhao Ling hurriedly made himself like a robot, he didn't listen to his hands and feet anymore, he dragged the stool and sat down, when he was about to introduce himself to save some face, he heard the old man say: "I'm wearing fleece autumn clothes, Are you wearing it?"
Zhao Ling: "..."
"Well, are you wearing it?"
Facing the old man's gaze of concern or provocation, Zhao Ling hurriedly said, wanting to cry, "No, no clothes."
"That's right, that kid Shaojun doesn't like wearing autumn clothes, even if you want to wear them, you probably won't be able to find them."
When he was speaking, Zhao Ling was pouring tea for Jin Boshan, when he heard this, his hands shook and almost smashed the kettle.
Luckily, Zhao Ling also had experience on the scene, so he quickly stabilized his hand, but his heart was sweating.I guessed that it might be a Hongmen banquet, but I didn't expect it to be so menacing.
Zhao Ling tried to make his tone sound calmer, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, the wine spilled on my clothes. Thanks to Jian Lv, otherwise I would have no clothes to go out today."
"I haven't seen this set of clothes for a long time." Jin Boshan said with nostalgia in his tone, "It should be the clothes he wore when he entered Shaojun University. He is nostalgic and protects his weaknesses. to be worn by others."
Zhao Ling had a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat, frantically evaluating how "others" was defined in the eyes of the old man.
But on the surface it was still calm, and said with a smile: "I'm thanks to you, if I didn't have dinner with you, Jian Lv would definitely not be willing to wear it for me."
"That won't happen."
While talking, the butler brought a tray, two bowls of porridge, three stacks of side dishes, two small bowls of soy milk and fried dough sticks.
Seeing the food being served, Zhao Ling loosened his tense back slightly, saying that the big family has many rules, and hoped that the old man would have the rules of not talking when eating or sleeping, otherwise he was afraid that he would bury himself in a pit if he continued.
"You are the first person he brought home, so I won't be reluctant to wear it for you." Jin Boshan almost sent Zhao Ling away with a single sentence, but the instigator seemed to be really doing things with Zhao Ling, and continued. , "I am old and have a bland taste. If you want something that doesn't suit your taste, you can directly tell the kitchen."
"No, no, it's better to eat something light in the morning." The mouth can only rely on his own instinct, because the Lord is staring at the porridge in the bowl at the moment, thinking crazily in his heart-if he said that he and Jian Shaojun would be with this porridge now As innocent as the shallots above, would the old man believe it?
This meal Zhao Ling ate like pins and needles, and he couldn't even remember what he ate.
"It's a pleasure to eat with you." Jin Boshan said after putting down his chopsticks, "I even want to have another bowl of porridge."
"Let the kitchen make you another bowl?" Zhao Ling felt that he had been regretting it all morning. When he woke up, this wasn't the neighbor's uncle walking around, this was someone's house!
Jin Boshan waved his hand: "Last night, I ate too much. The doctor gave repeated orders not to eat too much this morning. You eat. Watching you eat makes me feel like I'm eating."
Zhao Ling: "..." Why does he think that what the old man needs is not a female star, but what he needs is a host.
It was true that Zhao Ling was not full. After ordering a basket of Xiaolongbao and red vinegar, he began to concentrate on eating Xiaolongbao.When he finished eating the penultimate one, Jin Boshan cleared his throat suddenly, Zhao Ling raised his head in confusion, and heard the old man's slightly embarrassed voice: "You leave one for me, I'll try it too."
Looking at the steamed bun pushed in front of him, Jin Boshan cleared his throat again: "Vinegar."
Is this hungry?
But when Jin Boshan really looked at the steamed buns, he seemed a little hesitant: "How did you eat them just now?" It's not that he hasn't eaten steamed buns, but he hasn't eaten them like Zhao Ling.In the past, I was afraid of burning my mouth, so I usually poked it open to let the soup flow out before eating, but the soup in the bowl looked greasy.
So Jin Boshan never felt how delicious this food was, but what Zhao Ling ate made him open his index finger to Xiaolongbao for the first time.
"Use your chopsticks to hold the Xiaolongbao at this position, put it into the soup spoon, and then take a small bite to drink half of the soup. Then stand up the Xiaolongbao in the spoon with the mouth facing up, and pour the red vinegar into it. "Zhao Ling affirmed his own thoughts in his heart after the guidance. What the old man lacks is a food and broadcasting host.
"It's a little sour, but it's not bad." Jin Boshan commented after eating, and sighed for a while, "I should ask you to come and eat more with me, an old man."
Zhao Ling couldn't help being flattered, the old man seemed really sincere.Is there a possibility that he has a guilty conscience?Maybe the old man didn't mean it at all, maybe that's what brotherhood was like when they were young.Thinking of this, Zhao Ling's heart suddenly relaxed.
Jin Boshan wiped his hands with a towel: "I heard from Chengye that you informed Chen Wei last night?"
The old man's tone was very gentle, but Zhao Ling's heart was beating wildly. If this continues, he will definitely have a heart attack. This topic is not much better than the one just now.It's just that the facts are so, and Zhao Ling has to admit: "I met Young Master Chen in a previous cooperation, and I happened to have contact information."
"Why did you help Chen Yi?"
Zhao Ling pursed his lips: "Although I don't know the reason for their quarrel, it's wrong to hit someone. Even if Ms. Chen is at fault, you can't beat someone. I'm not helping Chen Yi, but I just don't want it to happen. Appeared in front of my eyes, and I don't want such a thing to appear in the Jin family, yesterday was your birthday banquet, it is inappropriate for such a thing to happen."
Jin Boshan nodded: "You are very principled, even if you don't like Chen Yi, you still helped her."
"I..." Zhao Ling hesitated, slightly confused, "Miss Chen and I didn't know each other before, so it's hard to say whether we like it or not."
Then Zhao Ling met Jin Boshan's surprised gaze, but it was a pity that Zhao Ling couldn't understand the surprise anyway, and after a long while Jin Boshan said slowly: "You did a good job and avoided a disaster. , I have to thank you. The old man is getting old, and the only thing he cares about is his children. There is one thing I want to ask you too. "
"Please speak."
"You should be able to see that the relationship between Chengye and Shaojun is not good. Just like what happened last night, Chengye is too capricious, and his words and deeds are too unscrupulous. If you have time, help me persuade Shaojun not to be with him General knowledge." Jin Boshan took a sip of tea from his teacup and let out a long sigh.
It's a pity that until the sigh fell to the ground, Zhao Ling couldn't wait for a response.
Jin Boshan raised his eyes, only to see Zhao Ling pursed his lips, his brows were slightly drawn, and his face was slightly stiff.
"Mr. Jin..." Zhao Ling hesitated to speak, "I know I'm not qualified to say such a thing, and I don't even know what entanglement happened between them."
"But it's okay to say, the authorities are confused by the bystanders."
Zhao Ling took a deep breath: "But just like you said, you think the young master is capricious and unscrupulous, so you must also know that Shaojun has always abided by the law and restrained himself. If this is the case, the relationship between the two of them is not good, and there should be no fault In Shaojun. Concession should not be Shaojun's concession. He can retreat, but will the young master understand this concession? Shaojun said today that he didn't come back for a long time after high school. I think this is actually a kind of Give in. I understand what you want them to be brothers and sisters, but I have seen him being wronged, and as a friend... I can't bear to see him continue to be wronged like this."
Facing Jin Boshan's shocked gaze, Zhao Ling got up and bowed deeply: "I'm sorry, I was too far away. Although Shaojun is an adopted son, he respects you only a little bit more, and I hope you will too. Being able to consider his situation, I understand what it's like to be dependent on others, I also understand what it's like to have no family, I understand his pain, so please forgive me for not being able to grant your request."
After Zhao Ling finished speaking, he bowed again and left. He didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear that he would say something radical again.
Looking at Zhao Ling's back, Jin Bochang said after a long time, "I finally know why it was him."
The butler remembered that when the father and son confronted each other last night, Jin Boshan was rejected when he introduced a marriage to Jian Shaojun, and Jin Boshan went crazy: "Could it be that these are not as good as what you found?"
"Not as good."
"Why does it have to be him?"
"I don't know." Jian Shaojun confessed frankly, "But I haven't considered other people, I haven't in the past, and I don't think there will be in the future."
"It's ridiculous, I didn't know that you still believe in the everlasting relationship?"
"Maybe." Jian Shaojun narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's just that even if there's no problem between us, I won't accept those people you sent. I've tasted good, why should I let it go?"
what is goodJin Boshan thought that what Jian Shaojun was talking about was the sweetness of being in love, the kind of sweetness that didn't keep fresh at all.
But now he understands something.
"This kid doesn't know anything, but he doesn't hesitate to offend me, and I want to do it for Shaojun." Jin Boshan laughed at himself, "Did he say what you have been holding back for more than twenty years?"
The butler just bowed slightly, but everything was said without saying anything.
The author says:
Zhao Ling: If there is 500 million, how should I spend it?
Jian Shaojun: Huh?So you plan to take 500 million and run away?
Zhao Ling: Hmm...it's a matter of being loyal to others with money.But I thought about it, what do you think I bought out the service of a lifelong private legal consultant for 500 million?
Jian Shaojun: Willing to serve Mr. Zhao.

Luckily, Zhao Ling also had experience on the scene, so he quickly stabilized his hand, but his heart was sweating.I guessed that it might be a Hongmen banquet, but I didn't expect it to be so menacing.
Zhao Ling tried to make his tone sound calmer, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, the wine spilled on my clothes. Thanks to Jian Lv, otherwise I would have no clothes to go out today."
"I haven't seen this set of clothes for a long time." Jin Boshan said with nostalgia in his tone, "It should be the clothes he wore when he entered Shaojun University. He is nostalgic and protects his weaknesses. to be worn by others."
Zhao Ling had a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat, frantically evaluating how "others" was defined in the eyes of the old man.
But on the surface it was still calm, and said with a smile: "I'm thanks to you, if I didn't have dinner with you, Jian Lv would definitely not be willing to wear it for me."
"That won't happen."
While talking, the butler brought a tray, two bowls of porridge, three stacks of side dishes, two small bowls of soy milk and fried dough sticks.
Seeing the food being served, Zhao Ling loosened his tense back slightly, saying that the big family has many rules, and hoped that the old man would have the rules of not talking when eating or sleeping, otherwise he was afraid that he would bury himself in a pit if he continued.
"You are the first person he brought home, so I won't be reluctant to wear it for you." Jin Boshan almost sent Zhao Ling away with a single sentence, but the instigator seemed to be really doing things with Zhao Ling, and continued. , "I am old and have a bland taste. If you want something that doesn't suit your taste, you can directly tell the kitchen."
"No, no, it's better to eat something light in the morning." The mouth can only rely on his own instinct, because the Lord is staring at the porridge in the bowl at the moment, thinking crazily in his heart-if he said that he and Jian Shaojun would be with this porridge now As innocent as the shallots above, would the old man believe it?
This meal Zhao Ling ate like pins and needles, and he couldn't even remember what he ate.
"It's a pleasure to eat with you." Jin Boshan said after putting down his chopsticks, "I even want to have another bowl of porridge."
"Let the kitchen make you another bowl?" Zhao Ling felt that he had been regretting it all morning. When he woke up, this wasn't the neighbor's uncle walking around, this was someone's house!
Jin Boshan waved his hand: "Last night, I ate too much. The doctor gave repeated orders not to eat too much this morning. You eat. Watching you eat makes me feel like I'm eating."
Zhao Ling: "..." Why does he think that what the old man needs is not a female star, but what he needs is a host.
It was true that Zhao Ling was not full. After ordering a basket of Xiaolongbao and red vinegar, he began to concentrate on eating Xiaolongbao.When he finished eating the penultimate one, Jin Boshan cleared his throat suddenly, Zhao Ling raised his head in confusion, and heard the old man's slightly embarrassed voice: "You leave one for me, I'll try it too."
Looking at the steamed bun pushed in front of him, Jin Boshan cleared his throat again: "Vinegar."
Is this hungry?
But when Jin Boshan really looked at the steamed buns, he seemed a little hesitant: "How did you eat them just now?" It's not that he hasn't eaten steamed buns, but he hasn't eaten them like Zhao Ling.In the past, I was afraid of burning my mouth, so I usually poked it open to let the soup flow out before eating, but the soup in the bowl looked greasy.
So Jin Boshan never felt how delicious this food was, but what Zhao Ling ate made him open his index finger to Xiaolongbao for the first time.
"Use your chopsticks to hold the Xiaolongbao at this position, put it into the soup spoon, and then take a small bite to drink half of the soup. Then stand up the Xiaolongbao in the spoon with the mouth facing up, and pour the red vinegar into it. "Zhao Ling affirmed his own thoughts in his heart after the guidance. What the old man lacks is a food and broadcasting host.
"It's a little sour, but it's not bad." Jin Boshan commented after eating, and sighed for a while, "I should ask you to come and eat more with me, an old man."
Zhao Ling couldn't help being flattered, the old man seemed really sincere.Is there a possibility that he has a guilty conscience?Maybe the old man didn't mean it at all, maybe that's what brotherhood was like when they were young.Thinking of this, Zhao Ling's heart suddenly relaxed.
Jin Boshan wiped his hands with a towel: "I heard from Chengye that you informed Chen Wei last night?"
The old man's tone was very gentle, but Zhao Ling's heart was beating wildly. If this continues, he will definitely have a heart attack. This topic is not much better than the one just now.It's just that the facts are so, and Zhao Ling has to admit: "I met Young Master Chen in a previous cooperation, and I happened to have contact information."
"Why did you help Chen Yi?"
Zhao Ling pursed his lips: "Although I don't know the reason for their quarrel, it's wrong to hit someone. Even if Ms. Chen is at fault, you can't beat someone. I'm not helping Chen Yi, but I just don't want it to happen. Appeared in front of my eyes, and I don't want such a thing to appear in the Jin family, yesterday was your birthday banquet, it is inappropriate for such a thing to happen."
Jin Boshan nodded: "You are very principled, even if you don't like Chen Yi, you still helped her."
"I..." Zhao Ling hesitated, slightly confused, "Miss Chen and I didn't know each other before, so it's hard to say whether we like it or not."
Then Zhao Ling met Jin Boshan's surprised gaze, but it was a pity that Zhao Ling couldn't understand the surprise anyway, and after a long while Jin Boshan said slowly: "You did a good job and avoided a disaster. , I have to thank you. The old man is getting old, and the only thing he cares about is his children. There is one thing I want to ask you too. "
"Please speak."
"You should be able to see that the relationship between Chengye and Shaojun is not good. Just like what happened last night, Chengye is too capricious, and his words and deeds are too unscrupulous. If you have time, help me persuade Shaojun not to be with him General knowledge." Jin Boshan took a sip of tea from his teacup and let out a long sigh.
It's a pity that until the sigh fell to the ground, Zhao Ling couldn't wait for a response.
Jin Boshan raised his eyes, only to see Zhao Ling pursed his lips, his brows were slightly drawn, and his face was slightly stiff.
"Mr. Jin..." Zhao Ling hesitated to speak, "I know I'm not qualified to say such a thing, and I don't even know what entanglement happened between them."
"But it's okay to say, the authorities are confused by the bystanders."
Zhao Ling took a deep breath: "But just like you said, you think the young master is capricious and unscrupulous, so you must also know that Shaojun has always abided by the law and restrained himself. If this is the case, the relationship between the two of them is not good, and there should be no fault In Shaojun. Concession should not be Shaojun's concession. He can retreat, but will the young master understand this concession? Shaojun said today that he didn't come back for a long time after high school. I think this is actually a kind of Give in. I understand what you want them to be brothers and sisters, but I have seen him being wronged, and as a friend... I can't bear to see him continue to be wronged like this."
Facing Jin Boshan's shocked gaze, Zhao Ling got up and bowed deeply: "I'm sorry, I was too far away. Although Shaojun is an adopted son, he respects you only a little bit more, and I hope you will too. Being able to consider his situation, I understand what it's like to be dependent on others, I also understand what it's like to have no family, I understand his pain, so please forgive me for not being able to grant your request."
After Zhao Ling finished speaking, he bowed again and left. He didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear that he would say something radical again.
Looking at Zhao Ling's back, Jin Bochang said after a long time, "I finally know why it was him."
The butler remembered that when the father and son confronted each other last night, Jin Boshan was rejected when he introduced a marriage to Jian Shaojun, and Jin Boshan went crazy: "Could it be that these are not as good as what you found?"
"Not as good."
"Why does it have to be him?"
"I don't know." Jian Shaojun confessed frankly, "But I haven't considered other people, I haven't in the past, and I don't think there will be in the future."
"It's ridiculous, I didn't know that you still believe in the everlasting relationship?"
"Maybe." Jian Shaojun narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's just that even if there's no problem between us, I won't accept those people you sent. I've tasted good, why should I let it go?"
what is goodJin Boshan thought that what Jian Shaojun was talking about was the sweetness of being in love, the kind of sweetness that didn't keep fresh at all.
But now he understands something.
"This kid doesn't know anything, but he doesn't hesitate to offend me, and I want to do it for Shaojun." Jin Boshan laughed at himself, "Did he say what you have been holding back for more than twenty years?"
The butler just bowed slightly, but everything was said without saying anything.
The author says:
Zhao Ling: If there is 500 million, how should I spend it?
Jian Shaojun: Huh?So you plan to take 500 million and run away?
Zhao Ling: Hmm...it's a matter of being loyal to others with money.But I thought about it, what do you think I bought out the service of a lifelong private legal consultant for 500 million?
Jian Shaojun: Willing to serve Mr. Zhao.
