My Wife is a Counsel

Chapter 294: Birthday party

Views:

While enjoying dessert, Lu Ming called the exclusive housekeeper of the penthouse apartment and asked her to introduce herself to Jin Meizhen, telling her that Jin Meizhen was also a small owner of this house.

Lu Ming did not hire anyone to take care of this penthouse apartment. When he was not there, a dedicated housekeeper did the daily cleaning.

Lu Ming still recognized the professionalism of the property here. The penthouse apartment has a special team of three housekeepers. No one is allowed to enter the apartment alone. Moreover, the room cleaning time is also fixed at a fixed time period every day. If any problems arise, the penalty clauses are very severe, from the property to the housekeeper.

In fact, the higher the level of service, the less likely problems are to occur, because once a problem occurs, not to mention the penalty clauses imposed by the company, the individual will also be in huge trouble.

Naturally, the beautiful housekeeper remembered Jin Meizhen in a short time.

After coming out of the Times Building, we went to a small restaurant at the north gate of Hanzhou University.

Although the restaurant is small, the owner is obviously very good at doing business. The theme of the restaurant is probably birthday parties for Wuhan university students. The decoration inside is the same as that of the Ginger Candy House, with colored paper everywhere, creating an atmosphere of a celebration party. The restaurant has two floors and no single tables. There are two private rooms on the second floor and one room on the first floor, for a total of three rooms. The space in the rooms is very large, especially the large room on the first floor, which can accommodate parties of 20 to 30 people.

The chubby girl who was celebrating her birthday was Jia Xiaofeng, who was Jin Meizhen’s desk mate. She was one year older than Jin Meizhen and was celebrating her fourteenth birthday today.

There are a total of twenty-seven people in the junior class, and about twenty of them came today because it was organized by the class teacher, Professor Jiang. Although some of these geniuses in the junior class have introverted personalities, Professor Jiang asked everyone to come, so only a few insisted on not participating for various reasons, and the others came reluctantly to make up the numbers. But there were obviously a few who were unwilling to come, and they sat far away. Their bodies were here, but their hearts were elsewhere. There were also people who were calculating with paper and pen, and the noise here did not affect them at all.

Only Jin Meizhen not only brought her sister, but also brought her "boyfriend", which made Professor Jiang overjoyed. Although this beloved disciple was not quite normal, having a boyfriend at such a young age, but at least, she was much more like a normal person than those monsters. As for premature love, for these talented young people, it should be said that it is not a problem but an advantage.

Professor Jiang, an elegant lady in her fifties, shook hands with Lu Ming and then chatted with him. Of course, she still treated Lu Ming as a child and asked him about his background in a friendly manner as an elder. She was worried that her beloved disciple might be deceived by some playboy. Look at this guy, tall and handsome, with a temperament that gives him a bit of a playboy vibe.

Lu Ming said that he was a lawyer from Donghai, a fellow villager of Meizhen, and that he came here to handle a lawsuit and happened to come to see little Meizhen. He said that little Meizhen was like his own sister.

Professor Jiang listened and his eyes gradually softened. This kid spoke in a very clear and logical manner, and his tone showed his special fondness for Meizhen. It would be nice to be Meizhen's boyfriend, but it seemed that, at least for now, he only treated Meizhen as his sister. He was a very good young man.

"My husband is from the law school!" Professor Jiang said with a smile, "In a while, one of his students will come over to sing birthday songs for our little birthday girl. She is the campus beauty of the law school and is very popular. I think that we little geniuses should also get down to earth and take a look at the beautiful senior sisters, right?" As he spoke, he looked at Sister Meizhen, "Of course, I don't know why Meizhen wears big thick glasses every day and often has braces in her mouth, making her look like she has buck teeth. She always dresses like the crowd. If I hadn't seen what she looks like after washing her face, I wouldn't know her today. If she were to be like today every day..." He paused, thinking, what was he talking about with a child

Lu Ming smiled slightly: "Then Han Da will have another historic school beauty, and a little genius, who will create a popular myth!" But he sighed softly in his heart, Meizhen, this little girl, is really good, if she doesn't have a bright future, who will? Playing ugly is naturally to focus all your attention on your studies, and don't want to be troubled by inexplicable things. It's not that someone is pursuing you or not, but being secretly followed and watched is also a normal trouble in life.

Professor Jiang smiled but said nothing. He naturally agreed with Lu Ming's words, but it was not a good idea to discuss this topic with a child.

But little Meizhen is really lovable. She devoted herself to study to avoid the limelight and made herself very ordinary. However, in terms of her investment in study, no one else prepared as much as she did in terms of study materials and tools. She even bought a punching machine for machine language practice. It is obvious that she spent all her money on this. At her age, who would not make money to become beautiful first? But she did the opposite.

Looking at Lu Ming, Professor Jiang said, "Meizhen's birthday is at the end of the year, right? When I teach this class, one of my principles is that I want to celebrate every child's birthday with great fanfare. They are all young and have left their hometowns to come here. I treat them like my sons and daughters, and I hope they can treat me like their mother."

Lu Ming nodded, thought for a moment and asked, "Teacher, does our junior class need sponsorship or something like that?"

Professor Jiang smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. We have sufficient funds. Not only do they not have to spend money on food, clothing, and studies, but they also receive a 30 yuan subsidy every month. Of course, if they buy specific reference books, tools, and the like, they have to pay for it themselves. It is impossible to satisfy them in every way."

Lu Ming nodded, thinking that a monthly subsidy of 30 yuan was really a lot. Not to mention poor places like the Western Region and the Federation of Southeast Asia, even in the poor areas within the kingdom, the four provinces in the Northern Region and many areas in Japan, the average monthly salary was about this level.

Actually, I originally wanted to sponsor this junior class, but after graduation, I want to give priority to working in my own company or research institute. But when I think about it, I can't make an argument with this class teacher, and it may ruin the main theme of his birthday celebration, so I didn't say it anymore.

"Mr. Lu, please do as you please. I'll go..." Professor Jiang pointed at the birthday boy, and Lu Ming smiled and said, "Yes, you are busy!"

Lu Ming turned around and found a corner to sit down as well. However, although Jin Meizhen was held by the birthday boy and couldn't get away, Jin Meiyan came over and sat down. Although she was a little afraid of him and sat a little far away, she was there to keep him company.

Lu Ming smiled in his heart. Although he wanted to scold her when he saw her, having her hanging around in front of him did make him feel less lonely and it could be considered a kind of companionship.

Not long after, the beautiful senior from the law school who would sing the birthday song as mentioned by Professor Jiang arrived. It was Mary from Bloom. She had not changed her clothes yet, still wearing the same black suit she had worn in the afternoon. She was tall and flirty, beautiful and sexy, and really attracted a lot of attention among the other junior students.

But with the outstanding sisters Kim Mi-jeong and Kim Mi-yeon in front of her, she seemed a little overshadowed.

There were a few young men who had been hanging around Kim Mi-yeon, looking like they wanted to strike up a conversation but didn't dare to. When the senior student came, they didn't even bother to look at her.

As for Kim Mi-jeong, the boys lost the courage to approach her. It was like a dream. Is this the girl with big glasses and buck teeth in our class

After everyone sang the birthday song and had a lively time, the process organized by Professor Jiang started with the performances, and everyone went on to perform one by one.

At the end, the best will be voted and there will be prizes.

Everyone was laughing and having a great time.

During the performance, the birthday girl Jia Xiaofeng pulled Jin Meizhen to sit next to Lu Ming and asked Lu Ming questions out of curiosity with very tricky angles. The chubby girl claimed to be a master of psychology and wanted to explore whether Lu Ming was serious about his feelings for Meizhen.

Lu Ming gradually felt uneasy when being asked this question. The students in this junior class were indeed not ordinary people, nor were they normal people. Relatively speaking, Xiao Meizhen was the more normal one.

"Brother Qianxing, what part of Meizhen do you like to look at? Eyes? Nose? Ears? Cheeks? Hair? Mouth?" Jia Xiaofeng blinked her little eyes and stared at Lu Ming very seriously.

Lu Ming was already sweating a little due to her questions. In the previous question, she judged that he had a transient personality. He felt that he was just a passer-by in this world, with no sense of security, no sense of belonging, and no understanding of true love. However, he would be particularly good to his wife or girlfriend. They would give him a sense of security and belonging. He hoped to prove through this connection that he truly lived in this world.

Although everyone else thought Jia Xiaofeng was talking nonsense again, he didn't know why he felt really guilty.

Now, this question sounds even more dangerous.

Lu Ming coughed and was about to change the subject when a figure appeared beside him. "Mr. Lu, do you have time? I want to talk to you."

Because she was sitting cross-legged on the ground, when she turned around, she could see a pair of beautiful white legs under the black dress. Needless to say, it was Han Mary.

The Bron people usually use "Han" as the prefix of their names, and the second half is similar to Western names.

As if he had been pardoned, Lu Ming smiled and said, "There's time." He reached out and flicked Jia Xiaofeng's head, "You're so smart!"

Jia Xiaofeng covered her forehead and pouted, but looked at Lu Ming's leaving back and whispered to Jin Meizhen beside her: "Meizhen, can he be my boyfriend too?"

Jin Meizhen smiled and said, "Whatever."

Jia Xiaofeng snorted, "You know he doesn't like me, right?" She reached out to tickle Jin Meizhen, and the two little girls laughed and made a mess.

On the other side, Lu Ming and Hanmali came to the back door of the box. Hanmali sighed softly, "Mr. Lu, I don't need to pretend in front of you. You know, I do it for money..."

Lu Ming waved his hand. "Is that what Professor Song wants to do? Well, you study law, right? I happen to be in need of an assistant for court, and you're from Bron, so you'd be a good assistant to me. I'll talk to the dean of your college and see if he agrees. I'll let you come and help me temporarily, for about ten days."

Han Marie was stunned, “Do you know Dean Lei?”

"I'll give it a try." Lu Ming smiled. "If you do a good job on this case, you are an assistant. Even if you worked part-time as a cigar girl, the college shouldn't punish you too harshly."

Han Marie was a little confused, but at this time she could only nod: “Yes, thank you Mr. Lu.”

Lu Ming waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's just the trouble caused by my people."

Although Hanzhou University is one of the top ten universities in the empire, it is mainly strong in science and engineering, and its law school is indeed not ranked.

If it is a top law school, the few aspiring top students there should have heard some of my stories, right
