Qi Xi feels that he has no worries for the time being, and has almost grasped his own life at this moment - his father has dealt with it, and the relationship between Gu Yan and himself does not seem to be so incompatible.
She became enthusiastic about her work again, and felt that the more she worked, the smoother it became. However, Gu Yan, who was sitting next to her, seemed to be preoccupied from the morning.
When others encounter troubles, step forward to solve problems, this is completely the best way for friends to open up!
Qi Xi felt that he couldn't miss this opportunity, after all, he had to rely on Gu Yan to cover up the blind date tonight.
Qi Xi resolutely spent money to buy a piece of delicious durian thousand layers, taking advantage of the lunch break, decided to start the topic with Gu Yan's favorite delicacy: "Gu Yan, what trouble did you encounter in this case?"
As a result, Gu Yan's troubles were probably mentioned. The man looked at the durian, and his expression became even worse.
Qi Xi said enthusiastically, "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Gu Yan probably lost his appetite because of this case. He reluctantly ate two mouthfuls of durian cake and then put down the spoon. He obviously didn't want to say anything, but he couldn't resist Qi Xi's constant questioning.
In the end, the man lowered his gaze and briefly explained the situation: "It's a custody dispute case. I've sorted out all the evidence and information, and I've written the respondent. I'm basically sure that we can win the case." , but in the custody case, the parties must appear in court, and the court was scheduled to start tomorrow afternoon, and the parties agreed, but now they have repented and are unwilling to appear in court."
"Is there such a thing?" Qi Xi blinked, "Can I apply for an extension?"
"The opposing party has lived abroad all year round, and it is rare to return to China this time. He only has time tomorrow. If he applies for an extension, the case will drag on until the year of the monkey."
After hearing this, Qi Xi was also a little puzzled: "Since you can win the case, why does your client refuse to appear in court tomorrow?"
Gu Yan pursed his lips, and explained concisely: "The customer said that he had counted his fingers, tomorrow is a big disaster, and he should not go out. If he goes out, there will be bloody disasters, and he refuses to go."
He rubbed the space between his brows: "He said that this afternoon is an auspicious day, and the court will be held this afternoon. The judge will order him to die tomorrow. Others can't enter the court to make trouble, so he will go to the court to make trouble."
This is really...
The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds.
but…
Qi Xi felt that he had a solution: "How long will this party be here?"
"Estimated half an hour."
"Okay, when he comes, hold him back, don't let him go, wait for me, I'll come when I go." Qi Xi smiled confidently at Gu Yan, "Definitely let him go to court tomorrow. "
Gu Yan's face was obviously disbelieving: "You don't know how superstitious and stubborn he is about Huang Dao Ji Ri, so try to continue reasoning with him..."
What's this? !
Half an hour later, when Qi Xi hurried back, as expected, in the conference room, the client was an old man, pointing at Gu Yan's nose and making a fuss—
"You little lawyer, do you understand? I have been studying the I Ching gossip for many years, and I figured out that there will be bloody disasters when I go out tomorrow. I can calculate it accurately. I used to think that I would be in trouble when I went out, but I didn't go on that trip. , Sure enough, the bus overturned! There were more than 20 people in the car, and five of them died! There are more than a dozen with broken arms and legs!"
"The hexagram this time is more dangerous than last time. I'm going to court and die. Can you hold me accountable? I won't go! Let the judge hold a trial for me today and give me a verdict today!"
Gu Yan was not frightened by the customer's fierce attitude, he still tried to stabilize the other party's emotions without being humble, and then explained the pros and cons. Unfortunately, the old man couldn't listen at all, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he was completely emotional when he saw it.
The sound of Qi Xi opening the meeting room door attracted the attention of the old man and Gu Yan at the same time.
Gu Yan stood up first. He almost walked to the door quickly, lowered his voice and quickly said to Qixi: "His mood is unstable, and he has occasional violent tendencies before. It's not safe here. I'll deal with it."
It's a pity that Qi Xi is not afraid at all, she smiled confidently at Gu Yan: "I have found a helper! Don't worry!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and looked behind her: "Come in, Taoist priest!"
Only then did Qi Xi open the door, then stood respectfully by the door, and invited the people behind him into the conference room.
It was only then that Gu Yan saw the person coming—a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and a mustache with an immortal style.
This Taoist priest is quite handsome, as soon as he entered the meeting room, he gave a very elegant ceremony.
The old man who was making a fuss in the conference room was also shocked by this development. He stared at the Taoist priest with wide eyes, and then looked at Gu Yan: "Who is this person?"
"My Daoist name is Zhengyangzi, and I practiced Daoism in Baiyun Temple. I came here this time to make a calculation for this fellow Daoist."
Baiyun Temple is a very famous Taoist temple. When the old man who was obsessed with the gossip of the Book of Changes heard it, he really showed some yearning and suspicion: "You are from Baiyun Temple? Do you understand the gossip of the Book of Changes?"
The Taoist smiled slightly: "Naturally, I understand a little bit."
The old man still didn't believe it: "Are you really a Taoist priest? Then what are the four famous mountains you talked about?"
"Of course they are Mount Qiyun in Anhui, Mount Wudang in Hubei, Mount Qingcheng in Sichuan, and Mount Longhu in Jiangxi."
"The founder of Taoism? What about our teachings?"
…
This old man really has a lot of research on Taoism. He asked a lot of miscellaneous questions, and the Taoist priest answered them very elegantly and confidently. After a while, the old man's mood eased, and he began to respectfully call "Zhengyang Dao" grow up.
"Fellow Daoist, let me make a calculation. If you go out tomorrow, you may be bloody."
This time is good. Hearing what Zhengyang Daoist said, the old man became even more energetic: "Why not! I just said it, and I can't make a mistake." He glared at Qi Xi and Gu Yan angrily, "Look, Daoist and my hero see the same thing!"
"But it's not impossible to resolve." The Taoist priest stroked his beard and pointed to Qi Xi beside him, "This little venerable has a close relationship with me. Hearing about your experience, he asked me for a talisman for you." , as long as you carry it with you, not only will there be no bloody disasters when you go out tomorrow, but you will also turn evil into good luck, and your fate will be smooth from now on... "
While talking, the Taoist took out the talisman paper, took out the writing brush from the cloth bag, swiped the pen to improvise a "ghost painting talisman" on the spot, and even stained some of his own saliva, then folded the talisman and solemnly handed it over to the old man .
…
Finally, when Qi Xi sent the Taoist priest off, the old man was still holding the talisman as if he had found a treasure, with a look of admiration on his face. When the Taoist priest left, he immediately turned around and began to thank Qi Xi: "This little venerable, Fortunately, it is thanks to you! Thank you! I will definitely bring the Taoist priest’s talisman to attend tomorrow! I must go to the court! Thanks to you! Thank you, thank you!"
…
Looking at the back of the old man who was furious when he came here, humming a song and leaving the competition and cooperation office, Gu Yan's face was quite complicated.
He glanced at Qi Xi: "That's it?"
Qi Xi nodded confidently: "That's it."
"Where did you find that Taoist? A real Taoist?"
"Fake, it's the fortune teller who pulls people under the overpass in the school. Didn't someone hang up on him every day in the campus forums? Everyone who pulls people is a classmate. If you have a bloody disaster, you can buy a talisman to resolve it. I have complained countless times. After two days The sky is coming again. Didn’t you sell the mind-changing talisman before? In the end, none of them worked.” Qi Xi couldn’t help muttering, “But the crow’s mouth is quite clever.”
"..." Gu Yan was obviously quite speechless.
Qi Xi shook his head: "Don't tell me, fortune-tellers are quite professional now, and their knowledge reserves are quite professional. If you look at the answers to those questions just now, they are quite calm. It's enough to fool ordinary people."
Gu Yan probably didn't expect that he would spend so much energy in popularizing the legal process to analyze the pros and cons, and finally ended up in this way. His face was still shocked and incredulous: "How did you persuade this Taoist priest to come here?"
"Two hundred yuan, the price is clearly marked and the price is right."
"..."
Qi Xi sighed: "Sometimes, it's better to use magic to defeat magic, to use feudal superstition to defeat feudal superstition!"
She smiled and looked at Gu Yan: "How is it? Am I able to find another way, and solve the problem very efficiently? The cost of handling the case is only two hundred yuan."
Qi Xi was humming a little song, and she was really in a good mood. She patted Gu Yan's shoulder: "It's like this between friends, you help me, and I help you. So in my blind date game at night, please pay attention to me." Message, give me a call when it's time to call!"
Sure enough, just after the lunch break, Qi Xi's father sent Qi Xi the place and time of dinner for tonight's "blind date". Just make a phone call and it's over, but I'll give you the address, and if I meet another person who feels good about himself like last night and likes to pester me, I can only ask you to come forward and save me."
Qi Xi clasped her hands together, and made a gesture of please, please, to Gu Yan, and then she immediately took care of it as if she remembered something: "But tonight's order, please don't buy it, I really don't have the money to return it to you."
Probably helped Gu Yan solve the problem of the trial today, Gu Yan looked in a good mood, he nodded: "Yeah."
In the evening, Qi Xi didn't bother to dress up, and went straight to the restaurant for dinner in business attire. She planned to chat and eat politely for half an hour, and then instructed Gu Yan to call herself on WeChat.
When it was time for dinner, unexpectedly, the "blind date" that Qi Ruiming found for him tonight turned out to be quite handsome. This man was three years older than Qi Xi, but I heard that he was already the vice president of the family subsidiary In short, he is quite elegant, has a good conversation style, and is quite humorous. Just listening to him complain about the lawyer he hired, Qi Xi couldn't help but want to laugh.
Although I didn't feel tempted, but the temperament of the other party's elder brother is quite friendly, and I can hear some business owners' needs and expectations for legal services when talking with the other party. It's good to think about it in another way, maybe You can really try to be a friend.
Qi Xi decided to finish the meal, and took advantage of the gap to secretly send a text message to Gu Yan—
"This one is good tonight, you don't need to call me!"
In the end, I don't know if Gu Yan didn't pay attention to the text message at all, and it didn't arrive for half an hour. It was almost not long after Qi Xi's text message was sent, when Qi Xi's cell phone rang.
Qi Xi and Fang Zheng were discussing the construction of the legal system of start-up companies, and they were still quite interested in this topic. Seeing the situation, they cut off Gu Yan's phone call. As a result, Gu Yan couldn't get his intentions at all, and he was almost non-stop Yes, a new call has arrived.
This time Qi Xi simply turned on the mute, she smiled at her blind date, and explained: "Harassing calls hahahaha."
Unfortunately, what Qi Xi didn't expect was that fifteen minutes later, it was no longer her phone that rang, but the sound of the box door.
Immediately afterwards, there was Gu Yan's familiar and cold voice—
"Qi Xi, I'm here to take you home."
Qi Xi followed the sound, and then saw Gu Yan at the door. He obviously didn't have anything to go out to court today, so he didn't need to dress too formally, but Gu Yan was wearing a full suit at the moment, meticulous to every detail. It is almost perfect, his hair has obviously been taken care of, a little more mature and capable, coupled with excellent body proportions and a frosty face, he is completely the spokesperson of the abstinence department who is walking, and this spokesperson, at the moment, is using a Looking at Qi Xi with an unpleasing attitude like being held accountable by the courtier—
"Still leaving?"
