Fall in Love with Mr. Nian Slowly
Chapter 623. Miss An, You Like Him Too, Don't You?
“Then again, Mr. Nian is such a capable and resourceful man, but he actually lost to that old lady Jiang Qifei. Who’s behind that woman?” asked Yan Su in disbelief.
“I want to know, too. She’s ahead of us in many ways. I guess that poor and pitiful face of hers is only a mask that she wears.” Luosang nodded. “There must be a strong force behind her. I wonder whom she has hooked up with. Today, she was driving a car that is worth over a million, and her outfits are worth tens of thousands. She was also wearing a Patek Philippe today.”
“Her ex-husband works in the army. He can’t have that much money to give her. She’s definitely with some other man,” Yan Su agreed. “She cheated on her husband when they were still married, so I doubt that she’s ever been single since she got divorced.”
“Let’s stop talking about this. The more we talk, the uneasier I am.” Luosang buried her head in her hands.
Yan Su looked at her without knowing what to say. It was indeed a troublesome thing that had happened to Luosang. Sadly, she wasn’t capable enough to help her.
That night, Luosang could barely sleep. At eight o’clock in the morning, she took a taxi to An Lan’s law firm. At ten to nine, An Lan came to work. Seeing Luosang sitting on the stairs in front of her law firm, she was surprised. “Miss Xu, what brings you here?”
“I want to ask some questions about my father’s case,” said Luosang.
Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, An Lan nodded, then opened the door and let her in. “Mr. Nian didn’t tell me that you’d be here.”
“I didn’t let him know. I came here by myself.”
An Lan glanced at her and asked, “You looked fine last time. Why do you seem so anxious today?”
“There are some questions that I can’t ask in front of Junting. I want you to tell me, as an experienced lawyer, do we have a chance of reversing my father’s verdict?” Luosang looked her in the eyes. Seeing An Lan blink, her heart almost sank.
An Lan didn’t respond but walked into her office and poured Luosang a cup of warm tea. After that, she said, “Miss Xu, to be honest, if I hadn’t worked with Mr. Nian for so many years, I wouldn’t have taken this case. I was engaged in many other cases, but none of them was under as much scrutiny as your father’s. Once the court session is opened, the media from the whole country will accuse me of taking a bribe, because I will be defending a molester. Once we start, I’ll be going against the entire society. Only on the day I clear your father’s name can I regain my reputation. If I fail, I’ll lose all my prestige as a lawyer.”
Luosang fell into silence.
“I get it. When my father first went to prison, I went to every law firm that I could find to ask for those lawyers’ help. As a result, they kicked me out once I mentioned it,” said Luosang.
“I’ll try my best in your father’s case. However, I can be honest with you. Without solid evidence, we might not even have an opportunity for appeal. Earlier, Mr. Nian was there, so I couldn’t just tell you this honestly. In fact, he knows about it clearly. He’s frustrated, too. I guess no one ever thought that Zeng Lijuan would die.
“I am really jealous of you.” An Lan looked at Luosang and continued, “Mr. Nian is so nice to you.”
“Miss An, you like him too, don’t you?”
“Yeah, I do. But I know him. If he liked me back, he’d have let me know long ago. If I go after him, I might even lose my chance to be partners with him.” An Lan paused for a few seconds, then nodded frankly. “Thankfully, the woman he likes isn’t a bad person. You’re that caregiver, aren’t you? Last year, if you hadn’t pointed out that mistake, I might have caused him to lose hundreds of millions.”
