Gu Nianzhi's eyes curved as she held Lu Jin's hand and said, "Thank you, Dad, for having confidence in me. That's right. Trust me, I'll help you get justice! "
Lu Jin's hand trembled imperceptibly. He didn't dare look Gu Nianzhi in the eye and muttered, "… Just get justice for yourself. Don't worry about me."
"How can that be?" Gu Nianzhi thought Lu Jin was still worried, so she quickly said, "You can find an excuse to listen in, but it's best to disguise yourself as someone else. Don't let anyone recognize you as Lu Jin."
He was the major shareholder of the Lu Corporation, but at least in the eyes of outsiders, he had nothing to do with her.
If he paid too much attention to her, it would arouse the suspicion of people with ulterior motives.
Especially He Chengjian, who was very suspicious …
Gu Nianzhi thought of He Chengjian's ruthlessness of "rather kill the wrong person than let him go", so she didn't want the people she cared about to be in danger at all.
Seeing that Gu Nianzhi was worried about him, Lu Jin was instantly happy. He winked at her. "Don't worry, I have a way. At most, the Lion King will make a comeback. If anyone can recognize him, I'll give him both Nobel Prizes! "
Gu Nianzhi giggled and said playfully, "Our family is really good at acting. Dad, I think you should seriously consider entering Hollywood."
"Hollywood is nothing." Lu Jin deliberately raised his head at a 45 degree angle. "Being a real scholar is the most important test of skill!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Actor tycoon Lu Jin has woken up. It's not even dark yet, and you're already dreaming." Gu Nianzhi giggled as she rambled on with Lu Jin. Finally, he let go of the burden in his heart.
Perhaps he hadn't let go of his past so quickly, but as long as he had a good start, he would slowly get over it.
Gu Nianzhi patted Lu Jin on the shoulder. "Alright, I have to go back. I won't be here again until the court hearing."
Lu Jin reluctantly saw her out and frowned. "It's not a problem for you to stay at the He family's house all the time. You should move out. I'll buy you a house in the imperial capital."
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
"I'll mention it to Young Master He, but you don't have to buy me a house." Gu Nianzhi turned around to stop Lu Jin and winked at him. "I'll rent a house."
Lu Jin understood instantly and held her hand with a smile. "I understand! Rent a house! Fang Dongjin is here. How about we sign a permanent rental contract? "
"If you don't say it, we can still be good friends." Gu Nianzhi shook their intertwined hands. "Ok, I really have to go."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked as if there was no one else around. They had already passed through most of the living room, but no one looked at Lu Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa.
Lu Yuan couldn't bear to see the father and daughter clinging to each other. He simply shook open a large newspaper and covered his entire upper body.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Lu Jin opened the door and said to Gu Nianzhi, "I'll walk you down."
"Uncle Lu, there's no need. I'll send Lawyer Gu back." The Ace of the Far East and Deputy Chief Counsel, Peter, suddenly stood up from the door and blocked Lu Jin's view.
Lu Jin's expression immediately darkened.
He pulled a long face and said, "Why haven't you left yet? If one meal isn't enough, do you want two meals? "
"Uncle Lu, you're too polite. I'm just worried about Lawyer Gu's safety. " The Ace of the Far East stood straight behind Gu Nianzhi. His chin was facing Gu Nianzhi's head, and he handed Lu Jin a handle-like device. "This was taken from Nianzhi's car. Take a closer look and see if there's anything wrong with it."
Standing too close, Gu Nianzhi could feel the heat of his breath. She moved away uncomfortably and said with a cold expression, "Mr. Peter is too polite. He's the Deputy Chief Counsel of a country, but he's actually my chauffeur. I'm afraid I'll lose my luck."
"That's right, that's right. We're all commoners. It's not good to have anything to do with you high-ranking officials and nobles." Lu Jin took the handle, but still spoke up for his daughter.
The Ace of the Far East's expression was calm as he said leisurely, "Yes, I'm the Deputy Chief Counsel of the Soviet Union. Anyone who wants to attack my car will think about whether they're prepared to go against the entire Soviet Union."
This was the confidence of a diplomat.
Abroad, they represented their own country, and behind them, there was also a powerful country backing them.
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
She was convinced. Wasn't that enough?
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and turned to walk towards the elevator.
The Ace of the Far East quickly nodded at Lu Jin and caught up with Gu Nianzhi into the elevator.
The elevator door slowly closed in front of Lu Jin. Lu Jin watched angrily as his daughter stood with another man. The scene was unusually harmonious …
"What are you being so arrogant for … It's just a dove taking over a magpie's nest!" Lu Jin glared at the elevator and turned to go back into his room.
After closing the door, he saw that Lu Yuan had blocked himself with a large newspaper.
"Huh? What kind of news is so good? You're so engrossed in it that you didn't even say goodbye to my daughter. "Lu Jin sat down opposite him on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked at the handle that Peter had given him.
It turned out that it wasn't a handle, but a receiver for a locator.
Interesting.
Lu Jin laughed happily.
Lu Yuan lowered the newspaper, revealing his forehead and eyes. He said mockingly, "It was clearly you father and daughter who came and went freely in the living room as if there was no one else around. I, a living person, couldn't even see you sitting here. Now you're still accusing me of not saying goodbye to your daughter. Did you give me a chance to say goodbye?! "
Speaking of saying goodbye, Lu Jin stopped smiling and was also full of complaints. "Don't say anymore. That deputy chief counsel is guarding the door. He's like a tiger eyeing its prey, like a wolf. I can't chase him away no matter how hard I try."
However, Lu Yuan could tell from his complaints that he was showing off, so he didn't answer, so he couldn't be smug.
Lu Jin waited for a while, but Lu Yuan didn't say anything.
He raised an eyelid and glanced at Lu Yuan. Seeing that he was still sitting upright and reading the newspaper like a national leader, he couldn't help pursing his lips and said, "Boss Lu, when Nianzhi's case starts, I'm going to sit in on it. Can you quickly think of a way for me to sit in on it openly?"
Lu Yuan: "…"
Lu Jin was the only one who could beg people like a big boss.
But what could he do?
Lu Yuan accepted his fate and put away the newspaper. He thought for a moment and said, "Nianzhi is a partner of our Lu Corporation's external law firm. You're a major shareholder of the Lu Corporation and also a member of the board of directors. When the time comes, you can listen in on the grounds of inspecting Nianzhi's abilities, but don't be too ostentatious. It's best if you don't reveal your identity in front of outsiders. It's fine as long as the board of directors knows. "
This could also be classified as a trade secret, so it made perfect sense for him to sit in on it incognito.
Lu Jin only needed a legitimate reason to appear in court so that others wouldn't suspect his relationship with Gu Nianzhi.
"That's a good reason! Boss Lu, you're really an unscrupulous businessman. You came up with such a high-sounding reason without even blinking. "Lu Jin gave him a thumbs up.
Lu Yuan wasn't comforted. He glared at him angrily, put away the newspaper, and went back to his bedroom.
Winter was coming. Lu Yuan planned to be a Buddhist-like president. He didn't want to stoop to the level of Lu Jin, who was an infuriating person with interpersonal disorder.
..
Gu Nianzhi and the Ace of the Far East sat in the moving car.
The Ace of the Far East said lightly, "I've tampered with the GPS in this car. Young Master He and the others can't receive the specific address of your father's apartment. I've given the matching receiver to your father. You'll drive this car from now on. "
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
She propped her head up and looked out the window at the river of cars. She said lazily, "Thank you. But Mr. Peter, don't waste your time with me. Really, you're so good. You can just snap your fingers and a bunch of women will pounce on you. "
"I didn't know I was so popular." The Ace of the Far East curled his lips and glanced sideways at Gu Nianzhi. "Actually, I'm here today to say goodbye."
Gu Nianzhi exclaimed and put down her arm. She was happy. "You're leaving? Are you going back to the Soviet Union?! "
"I'm leaving this place to do something," the Ace of the Far East said vaguely and couldn't help glancing at her again.
He felt that her eyes, which had suddenly lit up, were a bit of an eyesore. He reached out and pushed her face. "What's that look in your eyes? Why are you so happy to hear that I'm leaving? "
"How can I not be happy?" Gu Nianzhi was in a much better mood. "This is to let you know your place in my heart."
"Oh? I still have a place in your heart? " The Ace of the Far East raised his eyebrows with a smile. "I thought you had a heart of stone. Sure enough, a strong woman is afraid of a pestering man."
"Tsk, you're too arrogant." Gu Nianzhi spread her hands disdainfully. "You have no place in my heart."
The Ace of the Far East: "…"
He quickly pulled himself together. "Okay, got it. I'll continue to work hard."
Gu Nianzhi felt a headache coming on. She said angrily, "If you continue to harass me, I'll call the police!"
"You saved my life. I must repay you with my body." The Ace of the Far East turned the steering wheel with a half-smile. "So you're destined to never get rid of me in this life."
"Ha." Gu Nianzhi only said one word and stopped talking nonsense with him.
When she found a way to go back, how could she not get rid of him?
Gu Nianzhi's mood improved when she thought about how the Ace of the Far East would find out that he had been slapped in the face by her.
When she returned to the He family's home, she hummed a song as she walked to the hall.
He Zhichu and He Chengjian were both sitting in the hall. Seeing that she had returned, He Chengjian heaved a sigh of relief and stood up first. He smiled fawningly and said, "Nianzhi is back. By the way, the court schedule for your case has been decided. It's the day after tomorrow. This is the document from the court. You weren't here, so Ah-Chu signed it for you. "
Gu Nianzhi smiled and said politely, "Thank you, Mr. He. Thank you, Young Master He. "
He Zhichu, on the other hand, was expressionless. He quietly stood up from the sofa and went upstairs with her to her room.
Gu Nianzhi knew that he had something to say, so she let him in.
He Zhichu handed the court file to her and said, "You went to Fourth Ring Road today? The shopping mall there isn't as good as here. "
Of course, his car had a GPS. From the address he received, Gu Nianzhi had gone to a shopping mall in Fourth Ring Road.
He knew that Gu Nianzhi didn't have many friends here, so he was a little worried about her safety.
Gu Nianzhi nodded and said, "It's not as good as here, so I didn't buy anything.
I just went shopping. "
She opened the documents sent by the court and looked through them. She smiled slightly, took out her laptop, and sent an email to the court.
..
Early the next morning, Wen Shouyi planned to visit her parents in the detention center of the Imperial Police Headquarters. Before she could leave, she received a subpoena from the court.
The person from the court politely said, "Lawyer Wen, your defense lawyer's application has been rejected by the plaintiff's lawyer, and the plaintiff's lawyer has found new evidence to list you as the defendant. This is the court subpoena. You will appear in court with your parents tomorrow for the first trial. "

PS: Thank you to the leader of "Only Reading Makes People Happy in Life" for the 30,000 Qidian coins yesterday.
PS: Knocking on wood is a superstition in the United States. It means that if you say something bad and don't want it to come true, knock on wood.
I directly translated it as knocking on wood three times. In fact, it had the same meaning as the Chinese saying, "Bad things don't work, good things do".
Muah, muah, all the big shots and little angels ~ ~ ~
