Disorder in marriage

"Attorney Yan, Attorney Xia, thank you so much!"

This was probably the first time Lu Zhenzhen had the upper hand in front of this family, and she could be considered to have vented her anger.

"This is just the beginning. A lawsuit is a very long process, and the Zhang family will definitely find all sorts of reasons to cause you trouble."

Yan Zhi handed over a business card, "If you encounter a situation that you really can't handle, you can call this person."

The business card said she was a real estate agent for a certain company. Lu Zhenzhen didn't see anything special about it, but she kept Yan Zhi's words in mind.

"Okay, thank you."

The three said their goodbyes. Yan Zhi and Xia Linglong returned to the law firm. The atmosphere in the law firm was strange. Usually, the office area was like a battlefield, but now everyone was sitting quietly at their workstations.

As they passed by, everyone looked at them with curiosity, but also with a hint of pleading.

"What happened?"

An intern came running over with a cup of freshly brewed tea. "Sister Linglong, Sister Xiaozhi, someone... is looking for you."

Xia Linglong then noticed that the blinds in the reception room were all drawn, and she could see people inside through the gaps, but she couldn't see their faces at all.

Who is it?

The intern didn't say much, but glanced at Yan Zhi twice within three seconds, and Yan Zhi instantly guessed who it was.

"Gu Yunmo?"

Xia Linglong shrieked, "What! Gu Yunmo dares to come here? What does he mean by this?! Does he own this law firm?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the reception room was opened from the inside, and Jiang Jin stood respectfully at the door with a friendly smile.

"Madam, Mr. Gu has been waiting for you for a long time."

......

There were only the two of them in the reception room. Xia Linglong wanted to support Yan Zhi, but Jiang Jin pulled her out.

On either side of the sofa, Yan Zhi sat upright and serious, while Gu Yunmo, diagonally opposite her, crossed his legs and calmly propped his head up with his hand.

The document he was flipping through was her previously written appeal materials. Rather than reading it with relish, he was mocking Yan Zhi's work with a sarcastic and arrogant attitude.

After waiting for two minutes, she couldn't stand it any longer, walked over and snatched it back.

"Now that you're back from Shenzhen, go back to what you're doing. Why are you looking for me?"

Gu Yunmo returned to the capital last night, but didn't inform Yan Zhi so as not to disturb her rest.

When she got home, she wasn't there at all. Upon investigation, she discovered that Xia Linglong was still living at her house.

Gu Yunmo wasn't there to beg her to come home; he just wanted to see what kind of good life she was living outside, that she was so happy she didn't want to leave.

Upon arrival, it became clear that Yan Zhi was the first person to endure hardship without any effort.

She took on all sorts of cases at the firm, from wealthy clients like Mrs. Du to small vendors and elderly people living alone; she accepted any case she could.

They don't care about money, fame, or profit; they just want to dedicate themselves to society.

She thought that this would make Gu Yunmo think more highly of her.

Little did Gu Yunmo know that upon seeing all this, he felt that Yan Zhi, in her spite, had even missed the chance to live a carefree life.

stupid!

That's incredibly stupid!

"Are you happy working yourself to the bone every day?"

Yan Zhi answered without hesitation, "I'm happy."

It's infinitely more enjoyable than staying home idly and overthinking, not guessing where he'll sleep tonight or who he'll see tomorrow.

Gu Yunmo scoffed, not intending to stop her from asking for trouble.

"Grandma wants us to go back to the old house tomorrow, so please prepare in advance."

Yan Zhi was taken aback. "Isn't there still several days until the monthly return to the old house? Why the sudden—"

Gu Yunmo coldly interrupted her: "If you have any questions, go ask her. I'm just here to deliver a message."

After saying that, he got up to leave, but Yan Zhi called him back.

"How is Ji Shanmei?"

"Still hospitalized."

Yan Zhi remained expressionless. "I mean, have you investigated the person who caused her injury?"

Gu Yunmo stopped in his tracks. His tall, black figure exuded an immense sense of oppression and a chilling aura simply by standing there.

"Still under investigation."

Now that things have come to this, Yan Zhi is no longer afraid of offending him.

"You really never suspected it was Yan Fei? Even if she was abroad, she could have found someone to do these things!"

"Don't forget, she's the one who introduced Jiang Jin to you! She's a top student who graduated from business school, and the biological daughter of my uncle and aunt! You really believe she's untainted by her own corruption?"

"Do you really think she's never done anything dirty behind your back?"

Gu Yunmo still didn't turn around, but he took a deep breath, as if he was trying his best to suppress the emotions surging in his chest.

Yan Zhi shouted loudly, "Gu Yunmo, let me tell you, the people I hate most in this world are Yan Fei and her parents!"

"Similarly, the person they hate the most is me!"

"If they try to kill me, I won't give them a chance to breathe! If they dare to mess with me again, I really will kill them! I really will!"

Even after she yelled, the man still didn't react.

The door was pushed open, and Jiang Jin came in to remind Gu Yunmo, "Mr. Gu, it's time to go."

Gu Yunmo left the law firm without looking back.

Once in the car, Jiang Jin could tell that he was in a bad mood, and a sense of guilt welled up in his own heart.

Having followed Gu Yunmo for so many years, he knew that Gu Yunmo was an extremely rare leader.

Some leaders are outwardly humble but inwardly arrogant, attributing all their achievements to themselves and feeling that it is only right for their subordinates to work tirelessly for them.

Some leaders are muddle-headed, irresponsible, and have zero decision-making ability, yet they fail to clearly state their requirements.

Before becoming Gu Yunmo's assistant, Jiang Jin had also learned from many successful people in the industry.

But a leader like Gu Yunmo, who constantly learns, absorbs the experience of those around him, and is willing to learn from mistakes, is truly unprecedented and unparalleled.

Therefore, the more silent Gu Yunmo remained when he made a mistake, the more guilty he felt.

"Mr. Gu, I'm sorry. Has Madam guessed that I was helping Sister Yan Fei behind the scenes?"

Gu Yunmo interlaced his fingers, wearily closed his eyes, and murmured, "Mmm."

Jiang Jin lowered his head in self-reproach.

"It was my fault that Manager Ji broke his leg, and it was also my fault that caused discord between you and your wife. Although I confessed to you immediately, I cannot shirk my responsibility for taking it upon myself to send Chen Jiayi away."

"Mr. Gu, I will resign voluntarily after I finish my current work."

Gu Yunmo opened his eyes, like a beast awakening from a deep sleep.

"Jiang Jin, besides these things, what else are you hiding from me? About Yan Zhi?"

Jiang Jin looked at him and said sincerely, "No, I've told you everything I know. Mr. Gu, I'm really sorry."

He looked apologetically at the tips of Gu Yunmo's shoes, "I like Senior Yan Fei, and I still don't deny that."

"I used to think that as long as I met her demands, made her happy, and became the irreplaceable person by her side, I could get what I wanted. But as it turns out, this path doesn't work."

"Mr. Gu, I don't want to see Senior Yan Fei make one mistake after another. I hope you can save her, and I also hope you and your wife can be happy."
