Accusations of not wanting to marry: The prosecutor pressed him relentlessly.

When Tang Zhang returned from his business trip, he learned that his daughter was no longer living at home but had moved into a vacant apartment provided by Tang Ze. He didn't dare to get angry at his daughter, so he called his second son and gave him a good scolding.

No one in the conference room dared to utter a sound. Seeing President Tang standing in the corner, looking dejected and being scolded, Tang Ze dared not speak out and silently bore the brunt of it all.

He now reasonably suspects that Fang Youxi is deliberately setting him up. This troublemaker always targets him to trick him, so why is he so kind to his older brother?

At that time, Fang Youxi was reviewing documents at the law firm. The most common legal services provided by lawyers specializing in foreign affairs are international trade law, which involves drafting cross-border trade contracts and handling international commercial disputes.

Qin, the boss, assigned her to the international non-litigation group. By morning, the documents on her desk were piled up like a mountain. She was quite familiar with the work, but she still needed to get used to the domestic work model. She had to pick up many domestic judicial interpretations again, and she had to read books when she got home at night. She was busy every day.

No one in the firm knew she was the daughter of the Tang family, and naturally, Old Master Qin wouldn't gossip about it. She got into the law firm entirely on her own merits. The firm she worked for, Allens Linklaters, is one of the oldest and top law firms in Australia, with business covering 29 countries and clients including 55 Fortune 100 companies.

Fang Youxi is not short of money, but that doesn't mean she doesn't value her profession. A woman doesn't have many things she can rely on in her lifetime, and the ability to make money is the most important thing, while relationships are the most unreliable thing. She understands this clearly.

Besides, she really does spend money. The bags, clothes and shoes on that wall in her Australian apartment are no longer enough to satisfy her immediate needs, and her wardrobe in her North City apartment is empty. Buying more would cost money, wouldn't it?

"Knock knock." Someone knocked on the door: "Is Lawyer Fang home?"

Sitting next to her, Shen Lin raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Ever since you joined our group, this office has been in constant turmoil. Every day, the male colleagues in our institute come up with all sorts of lame excuses to chat you up. I can hardly stand it anymore."

Fang Youxi smiled, got up and went out.

Sure enough, it was a male colleague from the third group next door who had an Australian company involved in a lawsuit in China. He had heard that she used to work at a law firm and came to ask for advice on something, nothing serious.

After a few minutes of conversation, the other party asked, "Attorney Fang, are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together as a way of thanking you."

Fang Youxi smiled formally, "Sorry, I have plans with my boyfriend tonight. I'm new here, so next time, I'll treat you."

The other person nodded awkwardly and left. Sure enough, a beauty of that caliber couldn't possibly be single.

Since that night when she drank some beer and became sexually aroused, kissing Mu Wangbei, their relationship has progressed rapidly in the past few days. Her boyfriend would ask her to have dinner after work, and if he had to work overtime, he would come to the Platinum Yue Apartment to see her before going back. Before going back, they would always spend some time together, as if he were addicted.

Fang Youxi is very satisfied with her current life. They each have their own things to do. She is busy and he is not idle either. There is a sense of distance, but she enjoys the sweetness of love. She is a bit of a chatterbox, but Mu Wangbei is very quiet. This is good. If both of them talk too much, it will inevitably be too noisy. Moreover, Mu Wangbei is handsome. She doesn't need to say anything. Just looking at his face is quite relaxing.

It wasn't even time to leave work yet when the internal phone rang. It was Boss Qin requesting my presence.

Everyone else in the office was looking at Fang Youxi, their eyes filled with gossip.

This newcomer, who had only been on the job for a week, managed to alarm the boss. I wonder if there's some connection between them?

In the top-tier law firms in Beicheng, most of their business relies on connections. In terms of strength, Haotian Law Firm is undoubtedly the best, but there are nearly 3000 law firms of all sizes in Beicheng, with more than 50,000 practicing lawyers. Without connections, how could they generate nearly 10 billion yuan in revenue a year?

Fang Youxi was completely bewildered when she entered Qin Yifan's office, which was over 100 square meters, and respectfully greeted him, "Director Qin."

"Youxi, there are no outsiders here, you can call me Uncle Qin."

Fang Youxi found the address amusing, as if Xiao Rizi was saying "Yoshi!!!" to her. She suppressed her laughter but remained respectful on the surface.

Qin Yifan laughed so hard his eyes disappeared: "Your dad called me a few days ago and asked me to take good care of you. Before I even got a chance to take care of you, your brother took care of me first. Today, Tang Yi introduced me to a big client, the Lu family, you know, right? Lu Tong Group, their overseas business has grown tremendously in recent years. We had contacted each other before but didn't manage to establish a connection. Today I just met Lu Yanli, and he specifically asked about you. You'll also be involved in the Lu family's international legal services in the future. Uncle Qin has to thank you."

Lu Yanli? Who's that? I have absolutely no recollection of him.

But the eldest brother is the eldest brother. That meal at home wasn't for nothing. Since the Tang family doesn't do overseas business themselves, he introduced her to other clients. The eldest brother knows how to handle people. Fang Youxi isn't that stupid, and she won't turn down money. She won't refuse the job just because it was introduced by Tang Yi to show how high-minded she is. It would be a fool not to make money.

"Uncle Qin, I will work hard. Please give me pointers on any areas where I could improve."

"No problem, no problem. Putting aside the reputation of Allens Linklaters, where you previously worked, your academic qualifications and professional skills are also evident to all. Uncle Qin has high hopes for you."

After a round of perfunctory pleasantries, Fang Youxi withdrew.

If there's anything I'm not used to about working back in Beicheng, it's just that I have to be polite.

Working with white colleagues is all about self-interest, no feelings involved. After work, it's like we don't know each other anymore, and we all go our separate ways.

Working with my current colleagues, I don't have much affection for them, but it's a mix of interests and too many interpersonal relationships. Today's mother might be tomorrow's our mother. Different places nurture different people, and who can escape the common customs?

I had just gotten off work when Grandpa Tang called.

"Tang, let's go back to Grandpa's tomorrow and have a family reunion dinner. I asked Auntie to cook your favorite dishes."

"Okay, Grandpa." Fang Youxi had no choice but to agree, thinking to herself that the Tang family was really funny. They were clearly four bachelors, but they lived in four different houses, and then they would take one day a week to have a reunion dinner and stay at home for one night. This was quite a novel arrangement.

Even so, Elder Tang was still very dissatisfied with her living alone. He implied that his villa was so big, how come it couldn't accommodate her? He himself didn't want to live with his grandfather either.

Fang Youxi never expected that Grandpa Tang's reunion dinner would turn into a blind date dinner. At the Tang family's old house, the fifth single man appeared: Lu Yanli.

Lu Yanli was personally invited by Grandpa Tang. The reason he couldn't refuse was that his own grandfather was glaring at him. He had reason to suspect that if he dared to say no, the old man would give him a hard time. He had only been back in the country for a year, and his family had been arranging a marriage alliance. Now, the Tang family's granddaughter from Australia had returned, which was exactly what he was doing, walking right into the old man's line of fire.

One was unwilling and the other reluctant; this half-cooked meal was arranged in a truly bizarre way.

However, when Lu Yanli saw Fang Youxi in person, he wasn't so unwilling. In terms of appearance, Fang Youxi didn't look like the granddaughter of the Tang family at all; her appearance was indeed too outstanding.

As for arranged marriages, besides the binding of family interests, good looks are also a condition for personal gain, so he wasn't that opposed to them.

Tang Ze rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. He had always thought Lu Yanli was a pretentious guy. He put on airs when he came in, but his eyes lit up when he saw Tangtang. He wondered what it was about him that his father and grandfather liked, since they had been praising him for two or three years.

Fang Youxi acted with composure and grace, knowing that they would likely work together in the future, and the client should still be considerate.

In terms of appearance, Lu Yanli is no worse than Mu Wangbei, but in terms of temperament, he lacks a bit of aloofness. Mu Wangbei exudes a sense of distance from the core, and his image as a high-and-mighty flower is fully realized.

This Lu Yanli is somewhat pretentious; beneath his seemingly refined appearance lies a mixture of three parts flirtatiousness and seven parts wickedness.
