An Lan looked at him strangely. Her little hand that was held by him was extremely hot. She tried to pull it out, but she couldn't.
Xu Baohan didn't let go of her hand until Sun Xiaoxiao fell asleep.
An Lan opened her mouth and he interrupted her softly, "Let's talk outside. Don't disturb her."
An Lan followed him out gloomily. Before Xu Baohan could say anything, Doctor Liu patted his chest and said, "You scared me just now. Fortunately, Mr. Xu reacted quickly and admitted that you are Xiaoxiao's mother."
An Lan looked at him in confusion.
Xu Baohan pursed his lips and didn't say a word. Doctor Liu glanced at his expression. Seeing that he didn't stop him, he continued, "Xiaoxiao mainly lacks paternal and maternal love. She has always imagined that Mr. Xu is her father. She always treats the female nurse in the hospital as her mother, and just now, she mistook you for her. If you deny it, she will act up and become hysterical. She will lose her temper, smash things, and even harm herself, so we can only coax her and make her feel that she has always been very happy."
An Lan suddenly understood. She had thought that Xu Baohan was deliberately taking advantage of her, but it seemed like she was thinking too much.
"Lawyer An, I still have to see other patients. If you want to see An Ran later, just go to the door and see her, but you can't go in," Doctor Liu said before leaving.
On the garden path, she and Xu Baohan were suddenly the only ones left. Xu Baohan's gaze fell on her face. He didn't know much about women's makeup, but when the sun shone on her face, it didn't look like she had put on heavy makeup. Her lips weren't bright, and the faint perfume on her body drifted over, but it didn't smell greasy or pungent.
An Lan felt his gaze and suddenly recalled the warmth of his hand when he held her hand just now. She felt a little unnatural. "That …"
"I didn't do it on purpose," Xu Baohan explained first.
"I already understand." An Lan waved her hand. "Chief Judge Xu, I didn't know she was your …"
"She's the daughter of one of my clients." Xu Baohan suddenly turned around and looked at a bamboo tree beside him. "In the past, when I was a judge in the county, I accepted a case, which was Sun Xiaoxiao's parents. One time, when she came back from school, she found her parents dead at home. The reason was that her parents' small shop had a conflict with a neighbor, and the way they were killed was very cruel.
She saw the scene with her own eyes. Later, she was provoked, but because she was the first witness of the murder, she had to endure her grief to testify against the culprit in court. Unfortunately, the murderer hired a lawyer who was very good at sophistry. In addition, the negligence of the county police caused some evidence to be lost. a criminal case, but in the end, the lawyer scattered all the evidence and successfully let the murderer escape.
An Lan was stunned. She recalled Sun Xiaoxiao's appearance just now, and her heart ached for no reason. "But Chief Judge Xu, didn't you say that the judge will only judge based on legal issues? The murderer hasn't been convicted, so it's really not like you to think that he's the murderer."
"You're right."
Xu Baohan's gaze revealed a rare trace of forbearance. "The case of Sun Xiaoxiao's parents is actually very obvious, but because it happened seven years ago, the law at that time wasn't perfect enough, so the lawyer found a loophole. Now, with the progress of the times, the law is gradually improving. I'm very pleased, but every time it's improved, there's a loss of justice, and I'm helpless."
An Lan's heart froze. She smiled bitterly. Many of them lawyers seemed to be good at finding loopholes. "Chief Judge Xu, do you … actually hate us lawyers?"
