s changed a lot. Her eyes are no longer the gentle and kind ones they used to be, but rather carry a sharp, even deliberately released, fierce look. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul, and...Now it was Shu Tinglan's turn to be shocked. She wanted to say, Wen Jian, where did your intelligence go Hire her as your defense lawyerTheir relationship wasn't like it used to be, irreconcilable enemies, but it definitely wasn't at a point where they could cooperate either. 。Wen Jian had been tempered by reality these past few years, becoming much more down-to-earth. She still looked aloof, but inside, she was a mess. She wryly smiled:

"Yeah, I brought this on myself." 。After his divorce from you, Zhu Yu'an has spent the last few years doing two things: constantly researching and developing new products to elevate Zhu Yuan Technology to even greater heights, and using all his resources to attack your company, leaving me with no way out. 。“

Suddenly mentioning Zhuo Yuyan and divorce, Shu Tinglan's heart skipped a beat. She didn't want to speak anymore.” 。Fortunately, Wen Jian quickly changed the subject, "Ting Lan, I know with our relationship, you couldn't possibly help me" 。I am now at my wit's end, willing to swallow my pride and beg you because only you can help me. 。Ting Lan, this is a trap set by Zhuo Yu'an for me. He planned everything from beginning to end, waiting for me to jump in. This time with Heng Sheng Capital's financing, I was wrong, but the mistake wasn't fatal. The real culprit is him. 。"Wen Jian is very smart. The reason she came to find Shu Tinglan wasn't because of her abilities, but because of her status. With her as her defense lawyer, Zhuo Yu'an would at least show leniency and wouldn't go all out against her." 。Shū Tīnglán said nothing. "I'm sorry, I can't help you. You'd better find someone else." 。She's not doing charity work. Today, forget about Wen Jian, even if it were someone else, she wouldn't take this case if it involved Zhuo Yu an. 。She refused directly, however Wen Jian was persistent and didn't give up. She was truly driven to a desperate situation, letting go of all face

"Ting Lan, have you ever thought that in your father's matter, I am also a victim" 。Do you think I'd want to be born into this kind of family Want to be destined from the moment I was born to steal your fatherly love I'm sorry for the harm I caused you growing up. I sincerely say, I'm sorry. 。When my mother returns home, I will go to your mother's place to apologize. 。Wen Jian didn't understand. Shu Tinglan had long let go of her father and Wen Lan's affairs, she refused to be her defense lawyer not because of this. 。It's because of Zhuo Yunan. She doesn't want to have anything more to do with Zhuo Yunan. 。Wen Jian, let's not talk about the past anymore. If you go to my mother and confess, things might get better for both of you. Then go ahead. 。I can't take your case because I can't defend you from an impartial and independent standpoint. There would inevitably be a lot of emotions involved, and I wouldn't be able to be professional. Therefore, I won't take it. 。I hope you understand. 。"Wen Jian mocked himself, "Gongzheng, you talk about fairness with Zhuo Yu'an This was carefully planned by him." 。“So what Since it was his elaborate plan, how could I possibly get involved because of you Wen Jian, in your heart, do you think I'm that stupid” The two stared at each other across the conference table for a moment, Wen Jian replied silently:“It’s not that I think you’re stupid, but we are at least the only people in this world with blood ties.” 。Tinglan, whether you want to admit it or not, we are the only family in this world, and we have spent the most time together. 。Shū Tīnglán's heart, which had always been as hard as iron, suddenly crumbled at Wen Jiǎn's words. 。After her mother passed away, she lived a solitary life, longing for family even more than before. This feeling intensified after the birth of Shu Xiaohua and Shu Xiaonian. 。Of course, even though she cherishes family ties and shares the same bloodline with Wen Jianliu, they don't truly have much affection for each other. 。。If Wen Jian knew about the existence of these children first, you wouldn't know what she would do. Her heart had grown cold, and she had to be on guard. 。"Aren't you afraid that I, as your lawyer, will deliberately lose the case""You wouldn't. I believe in your professional competence." 。"This is Wen Jian's honest words, otherwise she wouldn't come to find you." 。"You should go back to Senzhou first, I'll give you a reply after I think it over." 。Seeing her attitude soften, Wen Jian also felt relieved. 。Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly turned back and said to Shu Tinglan:

"The two little ones are very cute" 。"This statement hit Shu Tinglan like a bolt from the blue, leaving him dizzy and pale:‘What do you mean’'Tinglan, rest assured, I’m not the same Wen Jian as before. I would never write about your two children.'" 。I just hope you can agree to it soon and go with me to Senzhou. 。"Wen Jian is still Wen Jian. To achieve her goals, she's always ruthless. She said she wouldn't use children in her articles, so would she really not

“Ting Lan, I just don't want to spend the rest of my life in prison.” 。After this case, I will go abroad and never come back. 。Just help me, please. 。This is Wen Jian's true thought. She didn't want to threaten Shu Tinglan with the children, she just wanted to add some leverage. 。

“Wen Jian, you really haven't changed at all. Not one bit."> 。Shu Tinglan had the feeling of being choked by fate once again. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape Wen Jian or Zhu Y uan. 。How she personally felt didn't matter. What mattered was that she couldn't bear to see the children hurt. She wasn't sure how Zhuo Yu'an would react if he knew about the children, nor was she sure what Zhuo's family or Cheng Zhimin would do if they found out. 。

When it comes to children, she doesn't dare take any risks at all. 。

It's clear they can't hide anymore. Wen Jian can easily tell that the children are there. Zhuo Yu'an just hasn't arrived in the city yet, or he might be avoiding her warning and hasn't come to check on her. He simply doesn't know for now. 。She had no trust in Zhuo Yúan anymore, even if he had no intention of harming the children, could he protect them Could he stand up to Cheng Zhimin How much did Cheng Zhimin despise her back then Despise her birth, despise her genes. 。Just thinking about Cheng Zhimin extending that look of disdain to the children made her unable to bear it. 。"Tinglan, my flight back to Senzhou leaves tonight, I'll be waiting for you at the airport." 。Wen Jian finished speaking and left. 。Shu Tinglan sat alone in the conference room, unable to recover for a long time. 。When I picked up the children in the evening, seeing them skip towards me, hand-in-hand with their teacher, her eyes welled up. She felt so useless, like she couldn't protect them no matter what. 。Back home, Auntie Liu had already cooked dinner waiting for her. She didn't have much appetite and put down her meal after a few bites. 。Send a message to Yimu Chang asking when he will be back. 。At such times, what she needs most is someone to support her and make her feel that life will be good in the future. 。Yimu Yang replied very quickly, saying there were still two days. 。reaming, it's so unrealistic, but she's also incredibly excited. 。Before she could take another step, his tall shadow enveloped her. She was suddenly pulled into his arms and held tightly. 。Yes, hol...
