In order to keep the child, Zhong Xiaoqin gave Chen Yu a way out, but she proposed to give Gu Jia a stable home (warm home). She wanted to change Chen Yu's mind through the living conditions of Gu Jia and his wife.

Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin have been friends and besties for many years, and their families have a very good relationship, so Chen Yu didn't think about anything else and agreed readily.

He even thought of a housewarming gift, which was to give the fish he raised himself. In Chen Yu's opinion, nothing could be a more suitable gift than his own fish.

...............

It was past eight o'clock in the evening. In Xu Huanshan's office, he was still working overtime drawing blueprints. His desk was already full of fireworks design drawings.

dong dong!

Just when he was exhausted and his back ached, there was a knock on the office door. Xu Huanshan looked up and saw that it was Li Ke, a new employee in the company. He replied, "Li Ke, come in!"

Li Ke, wearing a white skirt and a black striped suit, nodded and walked into the office with several lunch boxes in her hands. She placed them on the table beside her and said:

"Mr. Xu, I brought your dinner for you."

"Why are you the one taking care of all this today? Where's Youyou?"

Xu Huanshan stood up and walked to the table in the lounge area, asking with some confusion.

Li Ke opened the dishes one by one and explained:

"Youyou has already left. I happened to be working overtime today, so I asked her to go back and rest. Eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good if it gets cold!"

"Hey, where did you order this takeaway? It looks really good!"

Nodding slightly, Xu Huanshan pulled out a chair and sat down while praising the food.

"Mr. Xu, you're joking!"

Li Ke pulled her skirt, leaned over and handed a portion of rice to Xu Huanshan, then knelt down and sat opposite him, a little embarrassedly saying:

"I made these myself. Try them and see if they suit your taste!"

"You did all this yourself?"

Xu Huanshan turned his gaze away from the white spot and replied in surprise.

Li Ke nodded. "Yeah, I have a bad stomach. Takeout food is always heavy in salt and oil. I always get upset when I eat it, but if I get upset, it will delay my work, so I made it myself and brought it to you."

"It's not easy, it tastes good. I didn't expect that your cooking skills are quite good!"

She smiled back and Xu Huanshan ate the food in front of him while praising her cooking skills.

Li Ke glanced at Xu Huanshan and saw that he was eating with gusto. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Then he adjusted his mentality and said with emotion:

"Mr. Xu, although I have only been in the company for a short time, I really like the atmosphere of our company. However, I feel that my abilities are too low.

You said that others can do the same job well, but I can't, so I work overtime and bring my own food every day, for fear of delaying work."

"You've only been in the company for two months. Don't be anxious. Take your time to learn. Once you're familiar with the business, you'll be fine."

“I know all this, but I…”

Hearing Xu Huanshan's comfort, Li Ke looked at him with an embarrassed look, then lowered his head, as if he had nowhere to put his hands, and sobbed softly:

"But I'm afraid you'll dislike me!"

"No, don't be sad!"

Xu Huanshan looked up at Li Ke, who was crying and wiping her tears, and continued to comfort her:

"Don't cry, everyone else was an intern too. Just study hard and it's okay if you work slowly."

"really?"

Li Ke looked at Xu Huanshan, wiping away tears, and made a promise:

"Mr. Xu, don't worry, I will definitely work hard and strive to create more value for the company."

"It's rare for you to say this. I believe you can do well. If you work hard, the company will not treat you unfairly."

After saying that, Xu Huanshan finished the last mouthful of rice and put down his chopsticks.

"You're a really good boss, too. I'll definitely learn more and see more. I'm not afraid of hard work. If you need anything, just call me anytime. I'll do anything!"

Li Ke burst into laughter. Seeing that Xu Huanshan had finished his meal, she quickly stood up, handed him a box of tissues, and bent down to clean up the dishes.

Xu Huanshan nodded slightly, then stood up and said, "Thank you for your help, but don't think too much. Your body can't stand working overtime all the time. Go back and rest early!"

"Well, thank you Mr. Xu for your concern. You can go first. I will leave after I finish packing."

Li Ke smiled sweetly at Xu Huanshan, then closed the lids of several lunch boxes and put them into a bag.

"How about we go together? It's so late, I'll give you a ride!"

After taking a quick look around, Xu Huanshan saw that only he and Li Ke were left in the company, so he said politely.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ke knew that his plan had succeeded, so he responded very happily, then packed up his things and followed Xu Huanshan out of the company.

Xu Huanshan, who had not yet realized that he had been tricked, told Gu Jia about Li Ke's performance in the evening after returning home.

After hearing this, Gu Jia's heart suddenly went ringing with alarm bells. She was worried that Li Ke had feelings for Xu Huanshan because she knew too well what many young girls were thinking nowadays.

Instead of working hard to have a better life, they try to take shortcuts and want to find a husband who is successful in his career and has a lot of wealth.

I don't want to be wrong about what I guessed. It seems that this person needs a lesson. If she still can't adjust her mindset, I can only fire her.

Chapter 130 Asking for help from senior brother

As night falls, the buildings throughout the city light up, and countless skyscrapers are brightly lit, becoming colorful.

Looking at the message sent by Han Tao, Wang Manni felt a little lost. After pouring herself a glass of water, she stood on the balcony overlooking the night view of the Magic City.

Looking at the lights of thousands of homes and the river in the distance, Wang Manni's eyes began to blur. She had never realized that the night view of the Magic City was so beautiful and charming. This period of time was like a dream, and all the scenes kept flashing through her mind.

Who would have thought that the day before, I was still living in that rental house, worried about moving, and today I am standing in the Grand Hyatt Residence, a top luxury home in Shanghai. After living in Shanghai for eight years, I never dared to dream that I would one day live in such a house as a homeowner.

For a moment, she didn't know whether her choice was right or wrong. Although she had realized her wish of having a home here and being able to settle down, for some reason, she felt empty in her heart.

Before she knew it, Sister Zhang had already prepared a large table of dishes, and the doorbell outside the room rang. It was the doorbell that brought Wang Manni back to her senses.

"Madam, the dishes are ready, and the guests you mentioned earlier have arrived!"

When she walked into the living room, Zoe, Ada and others had already been invited in by Sister Zhang.

When Sister Zhang turned around and returned to the kitchen, Zooey and others surrounded Wang Manni, and then chirped: "Nini, you really live on the second top floor, this is too luxurious!"

"I think luxury is secondary. The details are what really make it special. Did you see when you went upstairs? There are only buttons for the top and second-top floors in the elevator, and the elevator room is completely separate from the other floors. No other floor can compare to this treatment!"

"Nini, can you take us around? Let's broaden our horizons and see these tens of millions of houses."

"Yeah, this is my first time in such a mansion. Not to mention the top floor or the second top floor, even the floors below, when I delivered clothes or exchanged goods before, I had to stand at the door and wait, but they wouldn't let me in."

"Of course. It's okay if you meet someone who's easy to talk to, but if you meet someone like Mrs. Liu who looks down on people, she won't even look at them."

"That's enough, you guys should always be careful with your words. Talking about clients behind their backs is a big no-no!"

Giving Mas a cold look, Wang Manni invited everyone to the restaurant and said, "Everyone, please sit down. Let's eat first. After that, you can look around and there's no problem finding a place to stay."

"Nini, there are only a few of us, how did we make so many dishes?"

Everyone sat down around the table, looking at the table full of dishes, Zoe couldn't help but ask.

"Everyone got off work so late and came to stay here to stay with me. Of course I have to treat you well. Don't be polite. Let's not go home until we are drunk tonight!"

Seeing Wang Manni say this, Zoe glanced around and asked in confusion: "Nini, shouldn't we wait for Mr. Han?"

"He has been busy at work these past two days and is still working overtime. I just called him and he said he would be back soon and told us to eat first and not wait!" Wang Manni smiled and explained.

Zoe compared it with the others and said, "This isn't good, Nini. How about we wait a while?"

"He may not be back for sure, but Sister Zhang has left some food for us, so there's really no need to wait!"

Wang Manni shook her head, picked up the wine glass, and invited everyone to drink together:

"Come, let me toast everyone. Thank you for coming to celebrate with me. I wish everyone can make a great career in this city. Cheers!"

"You're right. Today is a happy day. Let's toast to Nini and toast to her finding a boyfriend who loves her so much. Let's also toast to her promotion to supervisor and moving into a new house!"

"Okay, happy housewarming, Nini. Cheers!"

"cheers!"

As Wang Manni and Zoe stood up, everyone raised their glasses in response.

........................

Time passed quickly, and Han Tao was busy until 9:30 in the evening when he finally finished the work at hand.

At this time, he and Yang Dongxu, the full-time driver, were the only ones left in the entire Jingyan Company.

Of course, not all people who get off work can rest right away.

Although everyone has gone home, there are still many people working overtime in front of their computers, and most of the sales elites in the sales department are drinking.

The same is true for the lawyers at Mingtang Law Firm. Not just Han Tao, many lawyers are working overtime collecting evidence or drafting agreements, etc.

In big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, in fact, any profession, whether it is a senior executive or an ordinary employee, even the president cannot only look at the bright side.

After putting away his computer, Han Tao took out his phone and called his secretary Wendy:

"Wendy, do you have a moment now? Please help me check all the case files handled by Hongyuan Legal Advisor, including all the files on the law firm where this lawyer works."

"Boss, are you anxious? Your mission is not easy. What if I can't find it?"

Wendy had just finished taking a shower and was drying her hair while replying on her cell phone.

Han Tao smiled and said, "Can't find it? That's impossible. I think you can definitely find it, because I know you are the best!"

"Haha, I am optimistic about it!"

When Wendy heard this, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. After hanging up the phone, she started contacting people for help. Finally, she took out her notebook, sat on the sofa and started working frantically.

Half an hour later, she sent the results of her battle to Han Tao via email.

Looking at the email she sent, Han Tao replied with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Wendy. I'll give you a surprise when this case is over!"

"It's not hard, it's what I should do, boss. It's a deal then!"

"A word is settled!"

Seeing the expectant expression on Wendy's face, Han Tao smiled leisurely. He turned on his computer, and after reading through all the information, he called an old senior.

"Hey, Senior, is it convenient to talk?"

"Yes, I just took over a new job, and now I need your help with something. You should still remember Hongyuan Company!"

"Yes, their branch in Handong has been involved in copyright infringement numerous times. I'd like you to send me a copy of all their case files, including the results and the plaintiff's information."

"Yes, this time Hongyuan's Shanghai headquarters plagiarized the design drawings of an important Jingyan project. I am now the Chief Legal Counsel of Jingyan Group and also work part-time as the CLO. I must make this known."

"Well, their lawyer talked to me today, and I didn't agree. They can't take advantage of this anymore. They must pay the price for this!"

After the two of them communicated for a while, seeing that Han Tao was using this case to establish his authority, a concerned reminder came from the other end of the phone:

"Taozi, speaking of this, I have to warn you in advance. In the past two days, someone has been collecting your previous information and court materials.

Don't worry about Handong, I'll hold them back, but I don't know what's going on in Kyoto, so be careful, your opponent this time is not easy!"

"Thank you, Senior. I've already thought of that!"

Han Tao smiled faintly and continued to speak to the other end of the phone:

"I also had some contact with the other party today, but the person who came couldn't make the decision, so the deal didn't come to fruition.

So they're trying to stall for time. It seems they have someone to lean on. Don't worry, I'll pull myself together and meet them properly!"

The other party on the phone was silent for a moment, then replied, "Okay, as long as you know what's going on, I'll send you the information later. If you need my help, don't hesitate!"

"No, it's not enough to bother you!"

Han Tao rejected the senior without hesitation, and then half-jokingly said, "You are so busy with all sorts of things, how dare you bother me with such a small matter.

Don't you know my personality? As long as they don't cross my line, I don't mind if they use some tricks.

Good lawyers avoid litigation. If the other party wants to settle, I welcome it with open arms. But if they insist on going to court, then I will fight to the end!"

"You're still so stubborn. I knew you would say that. Brother, I really want to help you. I don't have any other intentions. Don't think too much!"
