Dai Shuyan came out of the shower with a clearer mind.
He put on a bathrobe, wiped his hair with a towel, and when he came out, he saw the woman sitting in the living room.
She did not know when she had changed out of her clothes. It was a black professional suit, wearing transparent stockings, high heels, her hair was scrupulously pulled up, and the only decoration on her body was the rose gold anklets on her ankles that were as thin as a spider's silk.
Seeing herself coming out, she immediately stood up.
His gaze stayed on her ankle for two seconds, he looked away, and was about to go back to the bedroom to get clothes, but she stopped him.
Yaoyao whispered, "I want to go out to work."
Dai Shuyan frowned, turned around, "Not enough money?"
He would call her a sum of money every month, not too much to afford luxury cars and villas, but definitely not too much, enough for her to live comfortably as a petty bourgeoisie.
Yaoyao quickly waved her hand: "No, no, I haven't finished spending it yet."
"Then why go out to work?"
"I also studied law in college, so I don't want to be so wasteful." There was water in her eyes, and there was longing in the water, which made it impossible to refuse.
Dai Shuyan thought for a while. She regarded him as the center of her life, and she would only rely on him more and more. This is not good. She can take the initiative to propose a job and get in touch with more people and things, which may change the current situation.
"Are you going to enter the law firm or take the civil service exam?" These are the two best choices for law students, and he can help them both.
Yaoyao raised her eyes, looked at him intently, and asked, "Can I join your law firm?"
He frowned suddenly. He thought she was going to be independent, but he didn't expect that she was just trying to get closer to him.
"No." He lost his patience and turned to leave.
She quickly grabbed his bathrobe and explained: "I just..."
Before he finished speaking, he shook off her hand and entered his bedroom.
Dai Shuyan was upset, threw down the towel, quickly changed his clothes, tied his tie, put on his expensive watch, and went out.
I thought she would continue to pester her, but when she opened the door and saw that there was no one in the living room, Dai Shuyan frowned and glanced at her bedroom. She wanted to warn her, but she was afraid that she might misunderstand again. It would be difficult to explain what happened last night.
Originally, he had important work today, so he pushed it all away.
Tang Wenheng shares his major with him, and he is very clear about his friend's professionalism. He invited him to be his partner yesterday, and he is going to sign the relevant contract today.
Occupational diseases, even if they are as close as Wen Heng, all procedures must be complete, and there is no room for sloppy.
After going to the law firm to sign all the agreements, Dai Shuyan said with a smile: "Heng, I have some bad news for you."
Tang Wenheng: "The law firm is in debt?"
Dai Shuyan smiled: "Where can it be? There are not enough offices, and we can't let other partners move out. You can use one with me first, and change to a bigger one next year."
"The upper and lower bunks are all asleep, what's the difference?"
"Okay, let's go. I'll take you to the office to have a look. By the way, I gave it to...Xiao Liu yesterday." He called his assistant.
Xiao Liu came over immediately, "Teacher Dai."
Teacher is a respectful title in this industry, not only respectful, but also kind.
Dai Shuyan: "I told you the day before yesterday about the recruitment of assistants. Has there been any result?"
Xiao Liu: "I have already made appointments with several suitable job applicants, and the HR department arranged for an interview this morning."
Dai Shuyan nodded, and said: "You have to work hard these few days, and you should deal with Ah Heng's problems first."
"Look for Xiao Liu in advance if you need anything. Xiao Liu is very capable in business." This sentence was said to Tang Wenheng.
Tang Wenheng smiled and said, "From now on, I will rely on Teacher Liu a lot."
Assistant Liu didn't even dare.
The people in the law firm are used to being swift and resolute, so they screened out a few good candidates that afternoon, passed through the HR department, and Tang Wenheng made the final decision.
Dai Shuyan went with him. The position of assistant is very important, and it is safer for two people to check.
When Yaoyao walked in, both of them were stunned.
She was wearing professional attire with light makeup on, and her face, which was already so beautiful, was even more charming. The strict professional attire, neat hair, and indifferent expression cast a layer of abstinence on her.
Anyone who sees it must praise it—a stunner.
Dai Shuyan's face darkened.
Upon seeing her, the HR manager hurriedly handed in Yaoyao's resume and explained, "This lady is a graduate of the Law School of R University."
The Law Department of R University is the top 1 law major in China. Dai Shuyan and Tang Wenheng both graduated from this school. He didn't admit it just because of his face.
Dai Shuyan didn't look at it. Of course he knew where Yaoyao graduated from. The problem was that she didn't like law at all, and she just went to the R University Law School desperately to be in the same school as him.
He frowned, "Please ask this lady to go back and wait for news, next one."
Hearing this, Yaoyao's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she would run out crying in the next second.
Surprisingly, she didn't cry, and she didn't get up to leave. Instead, she mustered up the courage, looked directly at the man's sharp gaze, and asked, "Excuse me, what didn't I meet the admission requirements of your institute?"
Tang Wenheng simply leaned back on the chair, watching with a smile on his face.
Dai Shuyan threw his resume on the table, "We don't need employees who have been out of society for a long time."
She hasn't been to work since graduation.
Yaoyao: "I am not divorced from society. I often review legal provisions at home, pay attention to current affairs and politics, and have not left behind my professional skills."
Dai Shuyan was about to speak when someone stopped him.
Tang Wenheng smiled and said, "Since the assistant was chosen for me, I should have the final decision, right Ayan?"
Dai Shuyan frowned and shut up.
Tang Wenheng continued: "I think this lady is very good. It's not important to be a lawyer, but she must have good eloquence and momentum. She is the only one. Come to work tomorrow, is it okay?"
Yaoyao was originally looking desperate, but she never expected that things would turn around, and she couldn't react. After Tang Wenheng finished asking, she nodded quickly, "Okay, yes, sure!"
Dai Shuyan loosened his tie and remained silent.
Yaoyao went to the personnel department to sign the contract, and went out to see Tang Wenheng waiting outside.
With his hands in his pockets, the man stood in the shadow at the corner, unable to see his facial features clearly. For a moment, it made people feel a little gloomy.
Yaoyao trotted over, raised her head and gave him a grateful smile: "Thank you so much today."
Tang Wenheng smiled: "You're welcome, A Yan is my friend, and I wish him well."
Mentioning him, Yaoyao's smile showed a trace of melancholy, "You must be very good friends, I was too headstrong back then, if I hadn't made a fuss and wanted to marry him, Uncle Dai wouldn't have forced him."
Tang Wenheng was a little strange, but sure enough, she blamed herself again: "I should be more patient, he doesn't really love Qi Shenghan very much."
"Cough..." He coughed, holding back a smile, "It's almost time to get off work, I'll go back with A Yan later."
She bit her lower lip, "I don't know if he is willing to take me."
Tang Wenheng: "Don't worry, he won't abandon you."
"Really? That would be great, I would like to borrow your words!"
With just a few words, the two got to know each other quite well. Tang Wenheng even asked her to call him "Aheng" just like Dai Shuyan.
Courtesy is reciprocal, and Yaoyao also asked him to call herself "Yaoyao."
As she was talking and walking, there was a sudden cry of pain from beside her, Yaoyao was inattentive and sprained her ankle.
Her legs softened, and she grabbed his arm subconsciously.
Tang Wenheng frowned fiercely, without caring about anything else, he held her shoulders and asked, "Is it serious? Can I still go?"
With a painful face, she gritted her teeth and nodded, "It's not serious, it's okay."
Tang Wenheng quickly let go of her, but she lost her support and immediately fell down, her face even more ugly.
He couldn't help it, the law firm was basically full of men, and seeing the cold sweat oozing from her forehead, he gritted his teeth, and simply hugged her up, quickly found a nearby stool and put her down.
Kneeling down in front of her, she looked at her slender ankles with embarrassment.
Yaoyao pressed her skirt, endured the pain and said in a low voice: "Thank you, I will be fine after resting for a while."
Tang Wenheng frowned: "Let me see, hold back."
As he spoke, his hands covered her ankles.
Yaoyao couldn't help taking a sharp breath, the man's hand was steady and hot, and he pinched her sore spot with reassuring strength.
The high heels were taken off, revealing his white toes. He breathed heavily, but the one with the chain was injured, so it was very inconvenient to check.
After a careful touch, the bone is fine, it should be a ligament strain.
He stabilized her ankle with one hand, and held the sole of her foot with the other, moving slowly.
The scalding temperature spread to the heart from the sensitive soles of the feet, it was numb, itchy, and painful, Yaoyao couldn't help but flinch.
He stopped immediately and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Yaoyao shook her head, two blushes appeared on her pale face, "It's a little itchy."
He paused, his Adam's apple slipped, and he moved his eyes away from her restored rosy lips, and then landed on her white and tender feet, and then moved away, her slender and straight calves...
He had the illusion of nowhere.
Yaoyao didn't seem to notice his abnormality, and asked, "Have you ever studied medicine?"
Tang Wenheng breathed a sigh of relief, and replied: "When I was abroad, I often participated in outdoor sports and learned some first aid knowledge, which is just superficial."
He let go of her feet and helped her put on the shoes, "The initial judgment is that the ligaments are strained, but it's better to ask A Yan to take you to the hospital to have a look."
Yaoyao lowered her head and let out a "hmm".
Seeing her reaction like this, Tang Wenheng frowned slightly, did she even feel that embarrassing ambiguity
Perhaps, he decided to keep her on his own and made a mistake.
Perhaps, A Yan's decision was right, stay away from her.
Yaoyao followed him with difficulty, and when she reached the corner, she stopped, "I'll go back first."
"Didn't you tell Ayan to take you to see it?"
"No, he's busy."
"He's not busy today." Tang Wenheng took out his cell phone, "Wait a minute, I'll call him."
After finishing speaking, she turned around and dialed the other party's phone, but Yaoyao had no time to stop her.
Dai Shuyan came very quickly, his face was cold, he couldn't see if he was angry, he stared at her feet when he came over, and said, "Don't wear high heels next time."
Yaoyao explained in a low voice: "This is more professional."
Dai Shuyan frowned: "Without experience, is it useful to dress professionally?"
Yaoyao obediently lowered her head and stopped being stubborn with him.
"Didn't you have a sharp mouth just now? How many times have you read law books in the past few years?"
She defended weakly: "I often watch it when you are not around."
"Have you paid attention to current events?"
"Yes, yes."
"The current sensational case of Yu X, if you are the defendant's defense lawyer, what aspects should you start with?"
Yaoyao said weakly: "I don't want to be his defense lawyer..."
Dai Shuyan sneered, "Everyone is equal before the law, and you don't even have basic professionalism."
Yaoyao bowed her head and remained silent.
Tang Wenheng turned around silently, opened the window, and lit a cigarette.
When the elevator came, Dai Shuyan said: "Heng, you should go back first, the house is not cleaned yet."
He nodded, "I'll get acquainted with the law firm's business, and I'll be leaving right away."
Dai Shuyan confessed: "Don't be too late."
The elevator closed.
Tang Wenheng stubbed out the cigarette and threw it into the trash can.
Turn around and leave.
When they arrived at the hospital, Dai Shuyan stood behind her, watching the doctor knead her ankle back and forth, couldn't help but look away and frowned.
After the examination, the result was the same as that given by Tang Wenheng, except that the ligament was slightly strained. After explaining the precautions, a bottle of medicine was prescribed, and it was over.
Yaoyao sat on a chair outside the clinic and waited, while Dai Shuyan went to pay for the medicine and get the medicine. It was almost seven o'clock after work, and the two of them hadn't even had dinner yet.
So I went to eat again.
It was almost nine o'clock when I got home.
Yaoyao put on her slippers, sat on the sofa, and asked, "Are you leaving tonight?"
Dai Shuyan paused when he unpacked the medicine, but didn't make a sound.
Yaoyao asked in a soft voice: "Can you go after I get better?"
Hiss, the plastic package was opened, and the man threw it into the trash can in a ball. He looked up at her.
Maybe it's because he hasn't been tempered by society, he is obviously not a child anymore, but his eyes are still clear, black and white, with anticipation and care, pitiful.
Dai Shuyan still didn't say a word, pulled a small stool over, sat in front of her, "lift your feet."
She took off her slippers and put her feet on his lap.
The jade white feet set off the dark suit pants, like a jade doll.
Open the potion, apply it to her ankles, and start rubbing.
The doctor told me to rub the medicine into it so that it can be fully absorbed to heal quickly.
He was merciless at all, and his strength was so strong that her fair skin immediately turned red.
Yaoyao gasped in pain, but didn't dare to pull her foot back.
After enduring it for a while, he didn't show any sign of stopping, but instead exerted more and more force. Yaoyao couldn't bear it any longer, tears fell down her eyes, and she begged, "It hurts so much, take it easy... ah!"
There was charm in her soft voice, which made Dai Shuyan even more irritable.
"Shut up!" he yelled at her.
Yaoyao gritted her teeth and endured, but the tears fell more urgently.
He breathed a sigh of relief, "You're asking for guilt, who told you to run to the law firm and wear high heels."
Didn't hear her reply, Dai Shuyan raised her eyes in surprise, she stopped crying, instead there was a kind of sadness of being overwhelmed.
She said: "I will try harder, if it still doesn't work, then..."
Dai Shuyan subconsciously held his breath.
He heard her say, "... let's get a divorce."
Rubbing the hands on his ankles, he paused.
