She briefly explained the situation.

Mo Weiyi was a woman herself, and having experienced divorce, Mrs. Wang had come to trust her after two days of persuasion.

Having a marriage come down to a court case, she had seen through it all.

But her intentions were clear, neither property nor an apology could be missing.

After hanging up the phone, the destination had been reached.

Mo Weiyi got out of the car and quickly walked into the cafe in her high heels.

…

A private room on the second floor.

“Miss Mo,” Mr. Wang stood up.

Mo Weiyi didn’t expect him to be there, she nodded with a smile, “Mr. Wang.”

“This is my attorney, He Bowen, who you have met before, haven’t you?”

The man in the crisp suit immediately extended his hand, “Miss Mo, I’ve long admired your name, what a pleasure to meet.”

Mo Weiyi smiled and reached out her hand, “Attorney He is too kind.”

Truly a big shot in the industry.

His words are always so grandiose.

His image…

…also matched that of the archetypical grand lawyer.

Dressed in a neatly pressed dark blue suit, with a light-colored checked shirt and meticulously matched red tie, his skin was fair, his features scholarly, and he wore a pair of rimless glasses.

At first glance, he indeed looked as Xia Chuyun had described, quite handsome.

“Attorney He, isn’t Miss Mo very beautiful?” Mr. Wang hinted with his eyes.

“Miss Mo…” He Bowen raised an eyebrow, speaking indifferently, “is indeed not quite what I had imagined.”

When Mr. Wang had briefed him on the opposing lawyer, he mentioned it was just a young girl, new to the field, very green and easy to deal with.

He had thought, even if she was a young girl, since she was a lawyer, she must be at least in her mid-twenties.

The legal profession pays special attention to seniority, and before practicing, one generally has to spend several years as an intern or assistant before qualifying to take on cases.

But to his surprise, this Mo Weiyi in front of him looked no more than twenty-something and was also a stunningly beautiful woman.

He knew a number of beautiful female lawyers who dressed exquisitely for meeting clients, but they all felt different from her.

How to put it?

This Mo Weiyi didn’t look like a lawyer at all!

Even though she was dressed in a business-like OL suit, her demeanor and the jewelry she wore made her seem more like a canary kept in a villa by a man…

“Miss Mo,” Mr. Wang had already pulled out a bag, “This is for you.”

Mo Weiyi glanced at it, “Mr. Wang, may I ask what this means?”

Mr. Wang hurriedly nudged the person beside him.

He Bowen raised an eyebrow, speaking calmly, “Mr. Wang feels that he’s troubled you several times before, and with National Day just around the corner, today we happen to sit down together peacefully to talk, so he wanted to give you a small holiday gift.”

“Exactly, exactly,” Mr. Wang hurriedly grinned.

Sure enough, a big lawyer knows how to make the situation sound good!

Mo Weiyi, however, inquired, “This doesn’t seem like a small gift, does it?”

The latest Hermes handbag, starting at 150,000 on their official website, and not necessarily available even if one wanted it.

After all, these big brands have limited sales channels throughout the country, otherwise, how could they be called luxury goods?

“Whether it’s small or not I’m not sure, my secretary bought it, saying girls your age like these kinds of handbags,” Mr. Wang said with a forced casual laugh, “Don’t worry, Miss Mo, it really isn’t worth much, feel free to accept it.”

“It’s not worth much,” Mo Weiyi followed his lead, “However, I already have this bag, so I won’t accept it.”

Hearing this, Mr. Wang burst into loud laughter, “Miss Mo really knows how to joke.”

He had seen the law firm’s profile; Mo Weiyi was the youngest female lawyer at Yurui, having joined just half a month ago, this was also her first case at Yurui.

Xu Meilin chose her because she thought that for a divorce matter, a female lawyer would be more empathetic and could fight for her rights from her perspective.

And that day at the law firm, Mo Weiyi was the only female lawyer who happened not to have any cases on hand.

But in his view, a young and beautiful girl like Mo Weiyi would typically have a strong sense of vanity, and it was not at all surprising for her to like branded bags.

For example, the bag she was holding now was a high-quality replica of a C-brand tote, and she was wearing so much jewelry…

Such a young girl, having just started working, couldn’t possibly be making much money.

Even if a lawyer’s salary is high, it’s still based on seniority for fees, how could a novice lawyer like her, still on probation, possibly afford a real C-brand bag worth over a hundred thousand?

So, subconsciously he felt she was bluffing him.

Mo Weiyi smiled lightly, “I’m not kidding.”

She actually did have that bag.

The Little Princess who grew up in the Mo Family had, from her teens, received yearly deliveries of new bags from major brands, brought right to her door and placed in her wardrobe.

Since her return, there were daily deliveries.

Apart from toys and clothes for Little Nuonuo, the rest were her clothes, shoes, bags, and even a variety of accessories.

All bought by Xiao Yebai.

However, Mo Weiyi now viewed these material possessions with relative indifference. Her attention had gradually been drawn to many other things–beauty, children, work, family… and so on.

“I understand what Lawyer Mo means,” Mr. Wang said with an insinuation, “Being a lawyer is different from us who run hotels, we fear not having a reputation the most. But for lawyers, sometimes those without much fame are especially wealthy, especially those people in the courts, they’re the ones who really make a fortune quietly.”

He Bowen took a sip of his coffee, savoring it slowly.

“Speaking of which, Lawyer He…”

He Bowen immediately put his cup down, “Mr. Wang, please go on.”

“I heard that recently, an attorney from your firm was in a car accident after work, right?”

“Mr. Wang also pays attention to the news of our firm?”

“Of course, I do business, and if I want you to be my representative lawyer, I naturally need to familiarize myself with your firm. Tell me, who was the accident caused by, and has the culprit been found out?”

He Bowen smiled but not quite, “This matter involves employee privacy, and it’s not convenient to disclose.”

“I understand.” Mr. Wang patted his shoulder, “It’s really something, how some people treat lawyers. Lawyers serve their clients, it’s normal to speak for whoever pays, right? How can one resort to underhanded retaliation after losing to you in court? To the point of driving someone into the ICU, they went too far!”

After speaking, Mr. Wang seemed to realize something and looked at Mo Weiyi sitting across from him, “Miss Mo, don’t be afraid, rest assured, with how beautiful you are, surely no one would bear to harm you seriously!”

Mo Weiyi watched the two men acting out their farce with a somewhat amused expression, “Aren’t we supposed to be discussing the conditions for a negotiated divorce tonight? Can we start now?”

Mr. Wang’s smile remained unchanged, “Just a joke, Miss Mo, you young girls take things so seriously.”

After speaking, he lifted his wrist, pretending to check the time, “There’s something at my company I must attend to, regarding the divorce agreement issues, I’ve authorized Lawyer He to handle everything, the two of you can talk.”

He Bowen stood up quickly, “Let me escort you out.”

Mo Weiyi smiled as she watched the two men leave.

**

Before long, He Bowen returned.

He had just sat down.

With a “snap”, Mo Weiyi placed her phone back on the table, “Lawyer He, I came here after work instead of going home because you personally called me with sincerity to discuss terms. But now, it seems I might have come here for nothing?”

“Lawyer Mo, the food hasn’t even arrived yet, isn’t it a bit premature to say that this was the wrong time?” He Bowen smiled, “Besides, I’m not Mr. Wang, I’m his representative lawyer, please trust my professionalism, I really am sincere about discussing and negotiating the conditions with you.”

Mo Weiyi was in no mood to argue, “Since Lawyer He is so sincere, let’s get straight to the point then, let’s not waste each other’s time.”

“No rush, let’s talk while we eat.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Talk my foot!

Perhaps sensing her displeasure, he changed the subject, “I hear you are Chenyu’s disciple?”

She could only nod, “Sort of.”

He Bowen laughed, “I am his senior, one class above him. I used to work at Yurui as well, before I set up my own law firm.”

Mo Weiyi continued to nod, “Oh.”

Seeing she wasn’t interested in reminiscing, He Bowen bent down to get the draft agreement from his briefcase, “This is the initial draft I’ve prepared, take a look at it first.”

Finally, they were getting down to business.

Mo Weiyi let out a sigh of relief and immediately took the contract.

In the end, although the dinner was as tasteless as wax, their respective terms were more or less agreed upon.

At eight in the evening, He Bowen stood up, “Miss Mo, where do you live, do you need me to drop you off?”

“No need.”

He Bowen didn’t insist, “If that’s the case, then I’ll be leaving.”

“Wait a second.” Mo Weiyi pointed to the bag on the table, “You left your stuff behind.”

He Bowen glanced at it, “That looks like it’s yours.”

After saying that, he picked up his briefcase and left.

Mo Weiyi got up hurriedly, “Lawyer He…”

Her cellphone suddenly rang.

She took it out, and answered hurriedly, “Xiaobai.”

“Have you finished?”

“Yeah, I’m at…” After she reported the coffee shop’s address, Mo Weiyi hung up the phone and immediately dialed Mr. Wang’s number.

“Miss Mo?”

“Mr. Wang, your Hermes bag is left here, have someone pick it up from the law firm tomorrow.”

“Miss Mo must be mistaken, I didn’t bring anything over today.”

“Mr. Wang…”

“I’m sorry, I’m still busy here; apologies, I have to hang up now,” and with that, the call was disconnected.

Mo Weiyi was speechless.

Was this some sort of forceful bribery?

It wasn’t many minutes before Xiao Yebai called her again.

Mo Weiyi got up hurriedly, carrying the Hermes bag as she walked out of the coffee shop.

…

By the roadside, a black Bentley sat quietly there.

After she got into the car, Xiao Yebai looked at the bag in her hand seemingly unintentionally, “Who’s the gift from?”

“…” Mo Weiyi didn’t know what to say for a moment.

After thinking for a bit, she said, “It’s not a gift, it’s something a client left behind, I’ll return it tomorrow.”

Xiao Yebai nodded and made no comment.

However, Mo Weiyi was surprised and counter-asked, “By the way, how come you got here so quickly?”

It seemed like less than five minutes had passed since she finished the call.

Xiao Yebai said, “I happened to be nearby.”

“Is that so?” Mo Weiyi didn’t suspect a thing, “Do you also have a social engagement nearby tonight?”

“Some business,” Xiao Yebai said succinctly.

Mo Weiyi was used to this, fastened her seat belt, leaned back in the seat and sighed, “Ugh, I’m really tired.”

Mr. Wang and Lawyer He, one a old fox and the other a smiling tiger, made the dinner really uneasy, and the most crucial part was that after it was over, they left her with a ticking time bomb…

First thing tomorrow morning, she would have someone return the bag!

While she was thinking about it, something suddenly covered her legs.

Opening her eyes, she saw Xiao Yebai’s handsome, chiseled features close up; he was holding a cashmere blanket in his hands.

“When did you prepare this?” Mo Weiyi’s heart melted.

My goodness, Xiaobai was getting more and more attentive and gentle. He even prepared these things for her in the car?

Who would have thought that the car of a straight-laced man would have anything besides a lighter and cigarettes?

“Take a nap, we’ll be home soon,” Xiao Yebai’s voice was gentle.

“Mhm.” Mo Weiyi obediently wrapped herself up in the small blanket, nodded, and then closed her eyes with a smile.

The inside of the car returned to silence.

Xiao Yebai looked straight ahead, quietly driving the car out.

It was only at an intersection with a red light that the car stopped, and he looked right, then down, inadvertently resting his gaze on the bag.

…

Mo Weiyi was really exhausted.

After arriving home, she played with her son for a while, then went upstairs to shower and sleep.

She forgot to tell Xiao Yebai about going to see the psychologist.

It wasn’t until the next day when she went to the law firm and sent off the handbag, that she suddenly received a call from Mango’s studio, reminding her not to forget her appointment to see the doctor that evening.

After hanging up the call, Mo Weiyi hurriedly dialed Xiao Yebai’s number.

But to her surprise…

[I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is currently not available.]

Mo Weiyi: “…”

In a meeting?

That was the only possibility.

She had no choice but to send Xiao Yebai a message on WeChat.

…

“Chairman?”

“Chairman?”

Inside the Mo Group Chairman’s Office, Zhong Kai was speechless.

No way, the Little Princess had already come back, so why did the Chairman still drift off into space from time to time?

Finally, Xiao Yebai’s gaze returned from the window and he looked at the assistant standing by the desk, “Finished reporting?”

Zhong Kai was speechless again.

He hadn’t even started reporting yet. Seeing the chairman’s phone light up, he thought he was about to take a call, but instead, the Chairman just stared out the window daydreaming…

After coughing twice, he still summoned the courage to remind him, “Chairman, your phone lit up a moment ago, maybe the princess is looking for you.”

Xiao Yebai picked up his phone.

Indeed, there was a missed call from Mo Weiyi, followed by a WeChat message.

[Don’t schedule anything after 6 PM tonight, I’m taking you to the doctor!]

He operated his phone, typed a “Okay” and sent it.

Putting the phone down, Zhong Kai said with a smile, “By the way, Chairman, Manager Liu just told me, the New Tai Energy contract has been signed.”

Xiao Yebai nodded, “Continue to follow up on the QL cooperation case.”

Zhong Kai really didn’t understand.

With the enormous scale of Mo Group, there was really no need to interfere with a small company like QL.

But since yesterday, he had been ordered to set up a team specifically to study QS’s investment case and then sabotage it halfway through…

“Sure, Chairman, don’t worry, I’ve already instructed Team Leader Hu to keep a close watch. QLDE’s next project is a video streaming app; short videos have been booming in recent years and investing in this is indeed promising. Chairman, you truly have foresight.”

After a bout of flattery, he noticed Xiao Yebai was looking down at his phone.

Uh…

Daydreaming again?

Unable to hold back, Zhong Kai tiptoed to sneak a peek at the phone screen.

And what he saw…

Wow!

Is Chairman Xiao shopping online?

Chairman Xiao even knows how to shop online!

And it looks like he’s browsing various handbags, all sorts of girly colors, unbelievable…

Right in the middle of working, but earnestly shopping online for handbags for the Little Princess?

To think that in the past, let alone personally shopping for the Little Princess, when was it not the assistant running around for such tasks?

“What are you looking at?” The man’s deep and cool voice suddenly rang out.

Zhong Kai came back to his senses, met the chairman’s icy stare.

Xiao Yebai had put down his phone, looking impatient.

“I’m sorry, Chairman, I… I’ll go back now,” said Zhong Kai, and he took off running.

Xiao Yebai watched him leave with a somber expression.

Only when the office door closed did he pick up the phone again, unlocked the screen, and continued his frenzied online shopping for bags.
