At that moment, the door opened, and Sheng Yaowen returned. He was of medium build, wore glasses, and had a refined and courteous demeanor.

"dad."

Sheng Yingran pulled Su Jing out of the kitchen and introduced him, "Dad, let me introduce you to this. This is Su Su, my brother. Isn't he super handsome?"

"Hello, Su Su."

Sheng Yaowen sized him up a few times: "He's quite handsome. When did you arrive?"

"He came today."

Sheng Yingran noticed that Su Jing was wearing an apron and holding vegetables in her hands: "Daughter, Su Jing just arrived, how can you let her cook? Su Jing, put it down and go rest."

"No, no, no, I did it voluntarily, so that my sister and aunt could rest."

Su Jing is a sensible child.

"Xiao Su, do you think your aunt looks like someone who would cook?"

Su Jing looked at Xie Yiren sitting leisurely on the sofa, admiring her manicured nails, her long legs in black stockings folded under her bodycon skirt, and her jade feet swinging back and forth in slippers.

She certainly doesn't seem like the type of woman who cooks.

But Su Jing knew she couldn't say she didn't look like it.

"Because her uncle is so considerate and loving, she doesn't have to cook."

Sheng Yaowen was taken aback.

This kid knows how to talk.

Xie Yiren stood up, glanced at Sheng Yaowen with her eyes, snorted, and went straight back to her study.

Su Jing whispered, "Sis, did I say something wrong? Why do I feel like Auntie's gaze towards Uncle isn't very nice?"

Sheng Yingran said embarrassedly, "They are rivals."

"Is your uncle also a lawyer?"

"No, my dad is the head of the gynecology department at Southwest Hospital."

"How could they be rivals?"

"My mom mainly handles medical malpractice lawsuits, and the most are from Southwest Hospital. Recently, she took on a case where a patient from my dad's department wanted to sue the hospital, and my mom and dad got into a fight."

what?

Su Jing was shocked.

A doctor married a lawyer who specializes in medical malpractice lawsuits.

"This is fine."

"Is this alright?"

"They are both very busy people, one a doctor and the other a lawyer. They rarely see each other at home, but at least they can meet in court as the defendant and the plaintiff."

Su Jing admired him.

Sheng Yingran: "Everyone's here, let's have hot pot as a family."

Sheng Yaowen: "Does Xiao Su drink baijiu?"

"I know a little bit."

"Have a drink with Uncle."

The four people sat down at the dining table.

Sheng Yaowen poured two glasses of Moutai, but Sheng Yingran and Xie Yiren didn't drink; they were eating hot pot.

Sheng Yaowen: "Xiao Su, welcome to Chongqing."

"Sorry to bother you, Uncle and Aunt."

"Don't bother me. You're my daughter's brother. Make yourself at home. I'll eat, you can do as you please."

clink.

Sheng Yaowen drank it all in one gulp.

Since his uncle had already done it, Su Jing gritted his teeth and did it too, only to feel a burning sensation in his throat.

Sheng Yingran: "My dad can hold his liquor, so you shouldn't drink."

Su Jing: "It's okay. It's my first time drinking with Uncle, so I have to make him happy. Sister Yingran cooked some tripe for you."

Su Jing placed the tripe in Sheng Yingran's dipping sauce dish.

"Thanks, Su Su. I'll make you one too."

Su Jing hesitated for a moment, then picked up his wine glass and faced Xie Yiren.

"Auntie, let me toast you. I wish you good health and happiness every day."

Thanks.

Xie Yiren clinked her juice glass against Xie Yiren's.

Su Jing did it again.

Xie Yiren: "Xiao Su."

"Auntie, please tell me." Su Jing immediately sat up straight.

Xie Yiren: "Are you afraid of me?"

Sheng Yaowen: "Lawyers, who aren't afraid?"

"Did I talk to you?" Xie Yiren retorted directly.

Sheng Yingran ignored her and called out, "Xiao Su, come on, let's have our drink."

Sheng Yingran: "Dad, drink less."

"Dad's in a good mood today. He's finished his drinks. Tomorrow at court, he'll win a big victory for you."

Uh……

Sheng Yingran and Su Jing looked at Sheng Yaowen, then at Xie Yiren.

"Sis, has Su obtained evidence that guarantees victory?"

"I don't know. What if it's a psychological tactic against my mom?"

"Oh, so this kind of deceit and treachery is possible?"

"well……"

Sheng Yingran rubbed her forehead.

Skull pain.

Xie Yiren looked at Sheng Yaowen opposite her: "Dr. Sheng, stop talking nonsense in front of me. If I lose tomorrow, I'll change my surname from Xie."

Sheng Yaowen: "Daughter, remember to take your mother to change her name tomorrow!"

"Tch, we don't know who will win or lose yet," Xie Yiren said.

……

After several rounds of drinks...

Su Jing and Sheng Yaowen were both drunk.

Sheng Yaowen patted Su Jing on the shoulder: "Little Su, let me tell you, I'm really suffering!"

Xie Yiren: ...

Sheng Yingran: "Mom, don't be angry. Dad is just talking nonsense when he's drunk."

"I'm not lying!" Sheng Yaowen said. "Xiao Su, you don't know, of all the lawsuits your aunt could have filed, she had to file a medical malpractice lawsuit, targeting our hospital every day."

Xie Yiren: "That's because your hospital has a lot of problems! If you didn't have problems, would I be able to get cases from your hospital?"

Sheng Yaowen: "You could have refused!"

Xie Yiren: "You can change hospitals!"

Sheng Yaowen: "Xiao Su, you be the judge. Don't you think your aunt is being unreasonable?"

Su Jing, slightly drunk, stammered, "Auntie, she..."

Xie Yiren: "Speak up, why are you stopping?"

"I'm drunk."

Su Jing slumped her head onto Sheng Yingran's shoulder: "Sis, I'm scared of your parents."

Sheng Yingran: "Hey, what are you two arguing about? You're even talking about work when you get home."

Xie Yiren: "It was your dad who provoked me first."

Sheng Yaowen: "If you don't cause me trouble, why would I bother you?"

beep~

Sheng Yaowen's phone rang.

Xie Yiren glanced at it: "Oh, Dr. Wang Qian called you again."

Don't overthink it, we're just colleagues.

To prove himself, Sheng Yaowen answered the call on speakerphone: "Dr. Wang, what's the matter?"

"Dr. Sheng, regarding tomorrow's court appearance, I've learned about the most crucial evidence."

"Wait a moment."

Sheng Yaowen answered the phone, drunkenly went to the balcony, closed the window, and took the call.

Su Jing opened one eye, saw this scene, and then closed his eyes again. This couple is terrifying. What are they playing at, Mr. and Mrs. Smith?

He felt safest holding his older sister.

Su Jing was already drunk, and after leaning on Sheng Yingran's shoulder, he quickly fell asleep.

A short while later.

After finishing the phone call, Sheng Yaowen went to the balcony for some fresh air and then vomited.

Sheng Yingran said worriedly, "Mom, Dad threw up."

"He spat at me, he's trying to protect himself, serves him right."

"What should we do then?"

"You go take care of your dad, I'll take Xiao Su to the hotel."

"All right."

Sheng Yingran handed Su Jing over to Xie Yiren and then went to the balcony to take care of Sheng Yaowen.

Xie Yiren patted Su Jing's face: "Hey, do you own a hotel yet?"

"It's open."

"Where?"

"The Waldorf Astoria Hotel," Su Jing said, slightly drunk.

Xie Yiren helped him up and out of the house, then they got into a taxi and went to the hotel.

Su Jing leaned on Xie Yiren's shoulder to sleep, nuzzling her neck with her head: "Sister Yingran, you smell so good~"
