the other side.

The man stood by the bed, looking down at the woman, his shadow looming over her.

with a circle of water stains on the sheets behind her .

After a long stalemate, the only sounds in the room were the man's heavy snort and his receding footsteps.

The woman lay on the bed, squinting at the ceiling above her head which was glowing with a faint yellow light.

After a long time, the cell phone next to him rang twice.

She swiped to the answer button, "Hello?"

Jiang Liu was extremely anxious, but now he felt relieved when he heard the voice from the other end.

"Hua Bao, are you okay?"

"What could possibly happen to me? I just had a fight with Lin Hechuan."

Wen Yuhua raised her arm to cover her forehead, "Now he's gone."

"Hmm..." Jiang Liu responded, looking at the two people who were eating elegantly and calmly in front of him, and said, "Why don't you come find me? Qi Xingwan and I are having dinner in the restaurant."

"I'm not going. You guys eat."

Wen Yuhua turned over and said sideways, "I'm a little tired today, so I'll go to sleep first."

"Okay, call me if you have any problem." Jiang Liu glanced at the bill, his hands trembling slightly, and his tone was a little caught off guard.

"Ok, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Liu finally cried out.

"Nine thousand eight!"

She stared at the waiter with wide eyes, "Are you sure it's nine thousand eight?!"

"The three packages plus the 10% service charge are indeed 9,800."

The waiter smiled and asked, "Card or cash?"

Jiang Liu gritted his teeth and took out his phone from his bag, "Scan the code."

-------------------------------------

The next day.

When Wen Yuhua went downstairs, the man had already left.

There was a table full of breakfast on it.

The nanny was busy, and when she saw her coming down, she immediately wiped her hands with her apron and said, "Madam, have breakfast."

Wen Yuhua nodded, "Yes."

There is a table full of Chinese breakfast. If Lin Hechuan were here, he would definitely point fingers and say that Chinese breakfast is greasy and unhealthy .

"The young master went out early in the morning, saying he was going on a business trip. Did you know that?"

The nanny whispered in her ear, "This table was ordered by the young master. He said you like to eat steamed dumplings in the morning. Do you think it suits your taste?"

Wen Yuhua was slightly stunned, and the hand holding the steamed bun trembled, "He is on a business trip?"

"Yeah, he left early in the morning. He asked me to pack a box of clothes. It looked like he would be gone for quite a while."

"profound."

The woman took a bite of the bun. The combination of the soft outer skin and the fresh and fragrant shrimp filling inside was very delicious.

It’s better to leave, but it would be awkward to meet again if I don’t leave.

After dinner, driver Lao Liu appeared in front of the villa on time.

"Madam." Old Liu had a straight and honest face, and smiled very simply, "Get in the car, I'll take you to work."

Wen Yuhua remembered that her mini was still missing , so she opened the car door and got in.

The scenery outside the car kept receding, drawing several beautiful mosaic-like lines on the window.

When we arrived at the law firm, the jasmine flowers outside the window had been blown away by the wind. Only a few broken stamens hung on the scattered branches, which looked very desolate.

She stood there for a while, until a colleague who came later patted her on the shoulder, and then Wen Yuhua woke up from her dream.

After entering the law firm, the first thing she did was to rush to Feng Chaoyang 's office and dismiss Ye Xi's case.

She didn't want to be involved in anything related to men.

"You agreed to it at the beginning, didn't you? Now you're turning it down. It's going to be difficult for me to deal with it." Feng Chaoyang paced in the room, his dejected brows raised like peaks.

"Mr. Feng, thank you for your help."

The woman lowered her eyebrows, but her tone was very firm, "If Miss Ye or Mr. Lin have any questions, please ask them to come to me directly."

After hearing this, Feng Chaoyang stared at Wen Yuhua with his rat eyes.

"Alas - now that you've said that, I can't do anything about it. I'll go and communicate with them."

Feng Chaoyang 's abacus beads clattered loudly.

By using this case to get close to Ye Xi, maybe he can also get close to the Lin family.

After getting permission, Wen Yuhua left.

Not long after, Li Yutong came in with her butt twisted.

"Lawyer Feng~What did Lawyer Wen say to you?"

The door was half open. Li Yutong sat on Feng Chaoyang 's legs with her arms around his neck.

"I heard that the law firm will be laying off employees at the end of this year and will implement some last-in-first-out system. I don't think I will be laid off."

Li Yutong is well-informed and has many little ideas.

"Don't mess around, this is a law firm."

Feng Chaoyang said this, but his hand honestly covered the woman's back, "Don't worry, I'm here, no matter who I am, I won't fire you."

He narrowed his eyes and already had a plan in mind.

…

As soon as Wen Yuhua sat down at his workstation, Lin Youyou leaned over to look over.

"Sister Yuhua, have you heard..."

She looked around and said, "I heard that our law firm is not doing well this year, and the company will lay off a number of employees at the end of the year."

Wen Yuhua paused while taking the document and asked, "Layoffs?"

"Yeah. They say they're implementing some last-in-first-out system, with one set for practicing lawyers and another for trainee lawyers. I don't know what it's all about."

Lin Youyou slid the chair over and frowned, "Actually, it all depends on the mood of the higher-ups. Whoever they want to leave can leave."

Wen Yuhua smiled and said, "At least we are fine now. We'll see how the higher-ups arrange it later."

Time passed slowly. Wen Yuhua hadn't seen Lin Hechuan for more than half a month since her last quarrel.

Mahkota Hospital.

The thirty-first floor was silent, and the only sound I could hear was the chirping of insects outside the window, which made me inexplicably irritated.

The sleepy nurse at the door saw Wan He standing at the door of the office and was afraid to knock. She joked, "Wan Zhu, be careful not to catch a cold if you go in. Doctor Lin has been in a bad mood recently. You will be frozen if you get within three meters of him."

Wanhe glanced at the joking nurse and thought to himself, I'm just trying to get you some rest.

After preparing himself mentally, he took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

"Enter."

The man's tone was steady, and there was nothing unusual to hear.

But Wanhe didn't dare to relax at all.

In the past half month, Lin Hechuan has been staying in the hospital and has never left. Patients come one after another, and operations are performed one after another. The entire department has never been so busy.

The doctors and nurses were complaining, but this guy seemed not to notice and had a very sour look on his face.

Poor assistant, he still had to receive a work call from this person at three in the morning.

"My wife introduced him here. She said she wanted to jump the queue and have you see her in person."

Wanhe handed the medical records to the man respectfully.

Lin Hechuan took it and glanced at it , "Okay, go and arrange it, see when I'm free recently."

"good."

"Oh, right." Lin Hechuan frowned, "There's one more thing you need to do. I'll send you the address later."

"Um……"

Wanhe stood there, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"Anything else?"

Lin Hechuan then raised his head and rubbed his stiff neck.

Wan He's heart was beating like thunder, and he hesitated, "Brother Chuan, did your wife kick you out? Why don't you go home?"

Lin Hechuan paused for a moment, and his sharp eyes shot over like a gust of wind, "Want to know?"

Just one glance and Wanhe broke out in cold sweat.

was a sound of breaking glass in the house , and the birds in the tree outside the window were startled.

After a while, Wanhe walked out calmly.

"Wanzhu, I thought you couldn't get out!"

The young nurse stared at Wan He in surprise, looking him up from head to toe, and couldn't help but admire him in her heart, "Wan Zhu, you are amazing."

" Hahaha , it's just a small matter, just a small matter."

Wanhe raised his foot to step forward, but suddenly his foot got stuck and remained in the same position without moving.

"Assistant Wan?"

The little nurse ran to him.

"You, come and help me, my legs are numb."

The young nurse hurriedly supported him and found that there was a large wet area on Wanhe's back.

Sure enough, no one can escape Dr. Lin’s powerful aura!
