Chapter 1642: Master Luo of Jingtian, Meets Zhong Yu
"Yawn~"

It was past 11 o'clock in the evening when Wu Mingfan and his assistant landed at the Hong Kong Airport. It was naturally impossible for them to meet the client so late.

I took a taxi outside the airport and went directly to the hotel where I was staying.

Since I'm cleaning up the mess for the law firm, I naturally won't treat myself badly in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Not only does the plane fly first class, but even the hotel has to be a five-star hotel.

Even his assistant Zhao Weida benefited from this. He had been on business trips before, but he rarely stayed in five-star hotels.

In the elevator, I asked cautiously, "Teacher Wu, do you need to prepare anything in advance for tomorrow?"

"Need not!"

"Ding!" At this time, the elevator had reached the corresponding floor, and the two people's rooms were next to each other.

It was already past midnight. Wu Mingfan went into the room, washed up, changed into pajamas and was about to go to bed when he heard the doorbell ring outside.

When he opened the door, he was shocked to see the person coming: "Jiayun?"

"Don't invite me in to sit down!"

The man was in his 30s, wearing a navy blue suit. He looked gentle and elegant when he smiled, and had a very distinctive patterned ring on his hand.

"Please come in. I didn't expect you to come so late~"

"I'm so sorry, I've been working overtime on a project and couldn't pick you up at the airport!"

The two ordered some midnight snacks. Wu Mingfan urgently needed to replenish his energy, so he ate some high-calorie foods. He felt very comfortable after drinking a glass of ice cola.

On the contrary, Mr. Luo insisted on drinking American coffee without sugar or milk, which is also his good life habit. Wu Mingfan really cannot achieve such self-discipline.

Wow, I get up at 5:30, go to the gym at 6 o'clock, and make sure I can arrive at the company on time at 8:30. No matter what time I go to bed, I will definitely follow this schedule the next day.

Mr. Luo simply ate a few mouthfuls of clear soup noodles. In order to maintain his figure, he rarely had a midnight snack. If he wasn't working overtime, he wouldn't even eat this little bit of noodles.

Putting down his chopsticks, he said, "What business do you have here this time?"

"Something happened at the law firm. Do you know Zhong Yu from Jiahui Technology?"

Wu Mingfan was still eating heartily. He hadn't eaten dinner in the evening and just had a few bites of the airplane meal.

"Zhong...Yu, I remember him. I met him at a charity dinner before. He is the CEO of Jiahui Technology, a rare technology company in Hong Kong."

"Okay, then please help me make an appointment with him~"

"No problem!" Luo Shao agreed readily without asking what it was specifically about.

After that, the two chatted casually. It must have been more than two years since they last saw each other. After all, the nature of a lawyer's job is so busy that he has to work day and night.

He and he were originally master's classmates at Renmin University. After graduation, they joined Jingtian together. Later, Luo Shao came to Hong Kong for work, but their relationship has always been good.

"I've heard about this in Beijing. It's a 160 billion RMB acquisition. Master Luo, you've made a name for yourself in Hong Kong!"

"That's too much! It's all thanks to the good teamwork!"

They had things to do tomorrow, so the two chatted for a while and then ended it hastily. Wu Mingfan stood up and sent him to the door...

The next morning, she asked her assistant to book a high-end restaurant, and then waited quietly in the private room for Zhong Yu to arrive.

People in Hong Kong have a good sense of time, and the main person was soon brought in by the waiter.

"Hello, Mr. Zhong, I'm Wu Mingfan from Quanjing!"

"Hello, Lawyer Wu~" Zhong Yu shook hands, but the expression on his face was a little subtle. He thought it would be Luo Bin who came.

But he did not mean to underestimate him, as Young Master Luo had greeted him in the morning.

Wu Mingfan had already received the gift box from his assistant. It was a carefully selected cigar. He had specially asked his friend to find out what Zhong Yu liked. He handed it over with a smile and said, "Mr. Zhong, this is our first meeting, isn't it respectful?"

"Oh...Padernong's 50th anniversary limited edition, how do you know I like this?" Zhong Yu was a little surprised.

"As long as you like it~"

"Then...thank you!"

The two of them sat down separately, and the atmosphere became much better. Assistant Zhao Weida was very perceptive and found an excuse to leave.
Although Zhong Yu is not a wealthy man in Hong Kong, his net worth is at least more than 10 billion. Naturally, he doesn't care about a small gift. The main reason is that he thinks this young lawyer in front of him has some connections.

"Mr. Zhong, I'm here to apologize on behalf of our Quanjing Law Firm. I hope to get your forgiveness. When I came here, Director Feng specifically told me to do my best to make up for our mistakes no matter what~"

Since he came to apologize, Wu Mingfan was naturally very sincere.

Zhong Yu raised his eyebrows: "To be honest, if it weren't for the great help of Lawyer Luo from your law firm, we wouldn't be able to eat here now!"

"Besides, even if it's just for Mr. Luo's sake, I definitely can't pursue this matter. But Lawyer Wu, I have only one request, and that is to replace Gu Jie for me!"

"There's nothing wrong with the rest, it's just that she...is lacking in ability~"

Zhong Yu has been dissatisfied with Gu Jie for a long time, but he just couldn't find an excuse before, and the things he did were always a little lacking.

Wu Mingfan didn't expect things to be so easy. Without even waiting for him to say anything, the sealing requirements were achieved very easily. It seems that Gu Jie's business level is really not good enough.

Just like this most basic mistake, even if there was indeed a problem with the intern, doesn't that mean she herself was not at fault at all?

Putting aside the facts, these days one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be on guard against others. Any document must be reviewed personally before it is issued, and any carelessness is unacceptable.

This is a truth that even an ordinary practicing lawyer understands, but Gu Jie made this mistake. All the family matters are excuses. Ultimately, it is your own problem!
"Lawyer Zhong, who do you want to represent you?"

"Luo Bin, I have always had a good impression of him, but he later went abroad for further studies~"

"Okay, I will give your feedback to Director Feng!"

The matter was solved so easily. Lina booked a flight back home in the evening. After leaving the restaurant, seeing that there was still time, Wu Mingfan had afternoon tea with Luo Shao again.

He was leisurely enjoying the sea view on the Xiangjiang River, but at this time Beijing was in an uproar. Gu Jie was so angry that she scolded several interns in succession.

But he couldn't hide his anger. He closed his eyes, rubbed his temples, and waved his hands impatiently at the lawyer in the office.

"Everyone, get out! You know the consequences if something like this happens again. Don't make such a low-level mistake!"

"Okay, Lawyer Gu~"

Several people who were already trembling with fear hurriedly left the office as if relieved. They were scolded for more than an hour.

"Brother Liu, what's going on? Is Lawyer Gu having his period?"

"Shh, stop talking nonsense~"

"You may not know this yet, but because Gao Feng's location was wrong, Attorney Wu flew to Hong Kong overnight yesterday. Although the client has promised not to pursue our law firm's responsibility, Attorney Gu was replaced. With such a big client, you would definitely be even more angry if this happened to you!"

"Is there a conflict between Lawyer Wu and Lawyer Gu?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Then why..." The intern was about to ask with a puzzled look on his face, but he saw several colleagues winking at him.

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with your eyes? If you feel uncomfortable, I have eye drops!"

Intern Liu Ming was convinced. He really didn’t know how this guy got admitted to the School of Political Science and Law.
