Chapter 2946 Xia Shu caused trouble as soon as she started work!

In less than a day.

Xia Shu has already spent half of her 66 yuan, because she just spent more than 30 yuan to buy herself a car.

"Sister Eiko!"

"Xia Shu?"

As Luo Yingzi walked out of the law firm building, she was quite surprised to see Xia Shu on the roadside, staring at the brand-new BMW 3 Series in front of her. "Where's your old Porsche? You changed cars?"

"Yes, I've changed my mode of transportation!"

That's right, BMW is definitely a luxury car in the eyes of ordinary people, but for our Miss Xia, it's probably only suitable for buying groceries.

This is no joke. The Xia family's nanny used to drive an Audi A6 when she went out to buy groceries. Don't worry about whether it's a new or old model, just say it's an Audi.

I drove around and found a restaurant.

Seeing the luxurious decor and the fact that they had just bought a new car, Luo Yingzi thought that Xia Shu's family was all settling down.

When a large table of dishes was served, and I picked up my chopsticks to pick up some food, I learned the details from the other person. My eyes widened instantly.

"What did you say?"

"Xia Shu, you're not kidding me, are you!"

"Given your current situation, why are you going to go for the deluxe version?"

"And they ordered such a huge table of dishes, it must cost at least several thousand yuan~" Luo Yingzi looked at the dazzling array of food on the table and instantly lost her appetite.

This isn't food, it's money!

"What... how am I supposed to say this to you?" Luo Yingzi was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Eat up, sis! This restaurant's Cantonese food is especially authentic, especially this stir-fried beef noodles, it's so chewy!" Xia Shu said, eating heartily with her chopsticks, while also calling out to Luo Yingzi.

"No, no, no, I can't afford this meal that costs several thousand yuan!" Luo Yingzi had no appetite at all. She was born to worry, and now she was thinking about what would happen to the child in the future.

"Several thousand yuan?" Xia Shu laughed. "Sis, this is a famous Cantonese restaurant; it won't cost less than several thousand yuan!"

These words left Luo Yingzi speechless, as if she felt full even without eating a single bite of food.

"Sister, tell me the truth, how much of the 66 yuan Chen Shuo helped you sell the car yesterday do you still have?"

Hearing this, Xia Shu pondered for a moment. "I spent 32 on a car this morning, 2 on a month-long hotel stay yesterday, and then there were clothes and stuff... I should have less than 30 left, but I haven't really calculated it!"

"You..." Luo Yingzi was both amused and exasperated by her spending habits. "What will you do when you run out of money?"

"what?"

"money!"

Xia Shu had never really thought about this question. In her world, her father was omnipotent. She felt that it was just a temporary setback, and the family would soon get back on track. Wouldn't they have money then?
"Alright, alright, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you. Stop eating and get out of here!" Luo Yingzi reached out and snatched the chopsticks away.

"What's wrong, sis? I'm not full yet!"

"What do you mean, 'what are we doing'? First, come with me to cancel the hotel reservation, and then see if we can get a refund for this car!"

"Why would I open a shop if I cancel my contract?" Xia Shu pouted, looking unwilling.

"You're still driving?" Luo Yingzi was utterly exasperated. "Who knows what's going on with your dad? You might have to rely on this money to make a living in the future!"

"My dear lady, it's time for you to grow up!"

"No matter what, you've been a partner at a law firm for so long, don't you know how serious this kind of thing is around here?"

Even though Xia Shu argued her case, she still couldn't save the car and had to sell it for 2 yuan.

At the same time, the long-term rental rooms at the hotel were also cancelled, and all the clothes and other items that could be returned were returned, leaving a total of 50 yuan.

Luo Yingzi directly invested the money in a financial product for her, one that wasn't easily withdrawn, providing a fixed monthly interest of several thousand yuan, at least enough to keep her from starving. Looking at the rented room in front of her, Xia Shu's face was full of disgust, even a deep-seated aversion. She had just accepted an 800 yuan hotel room, but she hadn't expected there to be something even worse.

You should know that Princess Xia used to live in a large, single-level apartment!
"Sis, how can we live here?" Her resistance was practically overflowing. "And it's so far away, it's outside the Fifth Ring Road!"

This rental room costs 3000 yuan a month. It was carefully selected by Luo Yingzi. She had considered having her live with her, but when she thought of the 30 yuan BMW and the 800 yuan hotel, she almost instantly gave up the idea.

This young lady still needs to experience the hardships of life!
Luo Yingzi went to great lengths for this!

"Why can't we stay here?"

"What's so far about it? Look at your neighbors, they all have to squeeze onto the subway to go to work every morning and evening. Do you have an extra head or two extra arms compared to them?"

"Why can others take the bus, but you can't?"

Seeing Xia Shu pouting and looking aggrieved again, Luo Yingzi realized that her tone had been a bit harsh just now.

He said softly, as if coaxing a child, "Xia Shu, it's time for you to grow up!"

"That 50 yuan will run out of money sooner or later. At this rate, it probably won't last more than two months. We have to face reality now!"

“You definitely can’t go back to Liangcheng Law Firm. I’ll help you find another place later, or I can call Qiu Huada Law Firm and ask if they’re hiring. But even if they are, you’ll probably have to start from the bottom this time and work your way up step by step!”

"After all, you no longer have your father's protection!"

"I know, sis!" From the moment Xia Shu stepped into this rented room, she began to gradually face this reality.

It seems... it seems she really can't go back!

After my father went to jail, I can't count on my mother at all. I'm afraid I'll have to rely entirely on myself from now on...

Chen Shuo came to work in the morning.

I encountered a tricky case as soon as I entered the office.

"Attorney Chen, is there any way to help with my case?" The speaker was a typical STEM guy, wearing glasses, with messy hair and heavy dark circles under his eyes, looking like he hadn't been getting enough rest lately.

"Mr. Zhang, I've handled quite a few cases involving disputes over bride price, but your situation is indeed quite tricky!"

"Let me sort this out for you again. Your fiancée, Ms. Liu, and you two haven't been able to reach an agreement on the bride price, but you haven't delayed anything that needed to be done!"

"Then the other party took your personal belongings to the police and accused you of rape. After testing, your DNA was indeed found. Am I right?"

"Hmm..." Mr. Zhang seemed like an honest man. Of course, it's also possible that appearances can be deceiving, and as a lawyer, one cannot judge a book by its cover.

Did you discuss it privately?

"We've talked!"

"how much is it?"

"I offered her 10 yuan to settle out of court, but she refused. She wanted 60 yuan!"

"May I ask, what is your approximate annual income?" With each question Chen Shuo asked, he would gradually summarize in his mind. There's a saying that goes, a good lawyer will definitely have some psychological counseling skills.

"I work for a large company, and my annual after-tax income is approximately..."

Just as the two were talking, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

"Come in!" Chen Shuo frowned slightly, because the people in the law firm knew his rules: when there were clients, no one could disturb them, not even the director, who had to send a message first.

“Attorney Chen…” Xia Shu gently pushed open the door, but seeing Chen Shuo’s obvious displeasure, she swallowed the rest of her words.

They have realized they have caused trouble.

With her head bowed, she said timidly, "I...I'm your new secretary!"
