An Lan clicked her tongue and said, "So you still know how to be embarrassed. A person like you should have learned that a lowly person is invincible. Lawyer He, you didn't do a good job of being thick-skinned."
"An Lan … what I said is true." He Mingqian gritted his teeth. He had to endure this. He had no chance of winning against a lawyer like Song Ruixue.
Moreover, Song Ruixue hadn't been in a lawsuit for a long time. His first lawsuit after his comeback would definitely attract the attention of the outside world. When the whole story of this case got out, his reputation would be ruined. What's worse, the outcome would be even uglier after he went to court.
Therefore, he could only endure this for the time being.
"Do you think I'm a pig?" An Lan sneered, "I know who you are. How did you insult me in the court that day? Let me tell you, He Mingqian, there's no room for negotiation. Instead of coming to my place, you might as well go back and find a reliable lawyer to go to court. As for Wan Qi's case, you have to hold your ground. Don't be replaced by your client. I'll make you lose to me."
He Mingqian suddenly clenched his fists, "An Lan, don't be too ruthless. I advise you to leave a way out. You and Xu Baohan are only temporary. Maybe he's just playing with you. Song Ruixue can't help you for the rest of your life. How about this, I'll compensate you for the loss of your reputation."
"How much?" An Lan crossed her arms curiously.
"Eight … eight hundred thousand," He Mingqian said painfully. "For a case of reputation loss, this is already a huge amount."
An Lan looked at him in disdain. "You want to dismiss me with such a small amount of money? Do you think I'm a beggar? There's no room for negotiation. You can leave."
After saying that, she pressed the timer. "You delayed me for 12 minutes today. According to my hourly wage, I'll pay 46 yuan a minute. You have to pay 552 yuan. But since we're about to go to court, I can help you save the last 550 yuan. Hurry up."
He Mingqian couldn't take it anymore. "An Lan, why don't you go rob money? Alright, I'll give you a million yuan. Let's settle this."
"Why do you like to blabber?" Yan Wen said impatiently, "Didn't you see the hourly salary written on our lawyer's door? Before you came in, she also told you once. Now, you want to renege on your debt, right?"
"You've got guts." He Mingqian pulled out six hundred yuan and threw it on the ground. "Keep the change. I'll pay you off."
With that, he strode away.
Six red bills scattered on the ground. Yan Wen was furious. "Bastard, if he didn't take the money today …"
"Forget it, pick it up." An Lan smiled faintly. "Don't feel bad about money. His reputation will be ruined in the future, and he'll even have a layer of skin peeled off. You have to understand."
"That's true." Yan Wen chuckled and picked up the money.
"Go treat your colleagues to some delicious food," An Lan said calmly. "It's my treat."
…
At 4: 30 pm, Xu Baohan called. "I was in the trial just now. I heard that He Mingqian came to look for you?"
"You're really well-informed." An Lan chuckled. "I wonder who in our law firm has become your informant."
"Guess." Xu Baohan smiled. "Are you okay?"
"Very good. I knew he would come to look for me. I'm just a little disgusted by him. I can't even eat dinner," An Lan said helplessly.
"If you can't eat, then I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow," Xu Baohan said. "I'm off tomorrow. Didn't we agree to go shopping together last time …"
"I'm going to the wedding tomorrow. Xiao Si is getting married." An Lan suddenly remembered that Xiao Si had called her in the morning and asked her to bring a male partner. If she didn't bring one, he would introduce her to a boyfriend.
