Mr. Huo, I will

Chapter 2 You know better than anyone, I still like you
"Afraid?" Lu Yuzhou choked, and sprayed out the water in his mouth, "It's Liu Muyang who should be afraid."

He had just come out of the civil court, and happened to see Su Yu beating Liu Muyang, with the look of "I will punish you with a slap first".

He hooked the corners of his mouth, with a teasing look on his face: "Su Yu, almost the entire legal circle knows about your great strength, right?"

Su Yu was stunned for a moment before realizing that this matter might have come from when she was a prosecutor.

"Everyone in the legal circle knows that there is a beautiful prosecutor who is known as the queen of strength. Xiaoli can break the gavel, and vigorously can kick suspects away. No one can provoke her."

Su Yu's face turned red, not because she was embarrassed by her own strength, but because she fell into the arms of Huo Ran, her ex-boyfriend, in a pretentious manner just now.

She raised her eyes and met Huo Ran's dark eyes, her eyelashes trembled, and then she quickly looked away.

She lowered her head and took a shallow sip of the hot tea. The fragrance of the tea overflowed, and the mist curled up, which wet the eyelashes in front of her eyes. Her white and slender fingers were holding the white bone china cup, which looked translucent and radiant.

The gavel was broken in the court, which happened during her internship.Originally, she was there to visit, but there was a lawyer and a prosecutor discussing the case in this courtroom. The lawyer tried his best to ask for an out-of-court settlement, but every word he said was irritating and shameless, and he always exonerated the suspect. He clenched his fist subconsciously.

Su Yu thought, she was born with great strength, so it's not her fault.

The female intern who came to visit with her handed her the gavel, bumped her with her elbow, and said, "You can try to hit the gavel too."

Su Yu pursed her lips, and took the gavel, probably because she couldn't control her strength well, or maybe because she needed to vent the anger in her heart, she just knocked once, and she was stunned.

The gavel broke, the gavel broke, broke.

The air seemed to stop flowing, and the surrounding atmosphere became very awkward. The entire courtroom fell silent, only the sound of the mallets rolling down on the marble floor was left.

Even the disputing lawyers and prosecutors looked over and were dumbfounded.Su Yu blushed from his cheeks to his neck, and couldn't believe that he broke the gavel.

As for kicking the suspect, that happened when she first appeared in court.The judge pronounced the sentence, and when the robbery suspect was being escorted by the bailiff, he suddenly broke free and rushed towards her.There were exclamations from all around, and she kicked him reflexively, which happened to hit the crotch of the opponent, so he was in unbearable pain, and fell back, looking as if he had been kicked by her.

Su Yu blinked, not knowing how to explain.Huo Ran on the opposite side looked at her, did not speak, and curled his lips casually.Su Yu felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by such eyes.

Fortunately, Qin Yu walked over. The prosecutor's uniform made him tall. He pursed his lips, and under his thick black eyebrows were dark eyes.He didn't even look at Huo Ran, his light eyes fell on Su Yu: "Su Yu, come with me."

Su Yu stood up, and Huo Ran also stood up, with a cold expression.

Qin Yu restrained his expression: "Lawyer Huo, I have something to ask Su Yu."

Huo Ran's eyes were dark: "Qin Jian, she is my intern. If it is a private matter, she is still at work, please wait for her to get off work; if it is a business matter, I am the main person in charge of the case. Of course, her other One identity is a relative of the suspect, but I am her hired lawyer."

Qin Yu frowned, remained silent for a while, agreed, and then set his eyes on Lu Yuzhou.

Lu Yuzhou was taking advantage of the recess time to sit and rest. He had just opened a bottle of coffee in his hand and hadn't taken a sip yet.Huo Ran lowered his eyes and looked at him too.

He was stunned for a moment, a little dazed, and after a while he said, "Understood, I evaded and went to court."

After Lu Yuzhou left, Su Yu looked up at Qin Yu and asked, "Have you finished listening to the recording?"

In fact, there is no big difference between listening to the recording or not listening to it.

Su Yu contacted Qin Yu last night. At first, Qin Yu didn't answer her calls at all.She called several times in a row before he picked up, with a cold and disappointed voice: "Su Yu, you should know better than me that at this time, whether you are a defense lawyer trainee or a family member of the suspect, you should not Take the initiative to contact me. I can't help you, and I won't help you." He paused, and there was the sound of flipping through files on the other end of the phone, and he was working overtime.

"Su Yu, I'm starting the recording. You have to understand that a casual sentence of yours may ruin your future career as a lawyer."

Seeing his attitude, Su Yu relaxed, exhaled lightly, and said softly: "Qin Jian, I am looking for you because of Su Sheng's matter. Before the trial tomorrow, can you give me some time? The case is now Entering an endless loop, Liu Muyang may be the breakthrough point, you believe me once, before the trial tomorrow, let me get in touch with Wen Yao's husband Liu Muyang? Of course, if you are worried, you can arrange for the bailiff to be at the corner of the hall Monitor, can you?"

To be honest, if it weren't for the friendship they have worked together for many years, Qin Yu would not have paid any attention to such a request.Why don't he just take a look at what Su Yu wants to do.

Qin Yu pursed his lips, looked at Su Yu, his Adam's apple moved slightly.For some reason, he suddenly wanted to explain his motivation for arranging the bailiffs: "I arranged the bailiffs in the morning, one reason is to protect your personal safety, and the other reason is to ensure the legality of the evidence."

Su Yu smiled, pinned her hair behind her ears, the sun fell on her ears from behind, and her ears were glowing and transparent red.

She understands Qin Yu's professional ethics, what's more, she originally hoped that Qin Yu would arrange someone, which saves a lot of trouble. She doesn't need to explain how the recording came about, and she doesn't need to prove whether there was a threat to Liu Muyang before and after the recording. It can also ensure her personal safety.

Huo Ran was not very interested in Qin Yu's words, but he frowned, his face full of gloom: "The security check at the gate of the court needs to be strengthened, Liu Muyang came in with a knife."

Qin Yu said: "Well, I understand." He paused, and said, "I submitted an application to the judge to withdraw the lawsuit."

Qin Yu seemed to want to say something, his thin lips were pressed tightly, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and finally he just glanced at Su Yu, and left without saying anything.

Su Sheng's case does not need to be held in court. The next step is to wait for the police and the procuratorate to review the evidence. After the process is completed, Su Sheng will be released.

Huo Ran glanced at Su Yu and said, "Let's go."

Su Yu followed his steps without speaking.

They came out of the side door and saw the media reporters and onlookers gathered in front of the court from a distance. The prosecutor's temporary decision to withdraw the case completely angered them.

The onlookers protested against the court's protection of the rich and against the injustice of the world.

The media reporters were broadcasting live, playing word games, deriving countless meanings from a short sentence, pouring a layer of fuel on everyone's anger.

When Su Yu opened the car door, he still couldn't hold back, and looked back at the angry crowd, feeling absurd and strange.

The car was driving smoothly, she turned her head and looked out the window, resting her cheeks in thought.

While waiting for the red light, Huo Ran stretched his arms, gripped the steering wheel again with his slender fingers, looked ahead with his dark eyes, but a smile appeared on his lips, and he said, "This is the first time you stand on the opposite side of public opinion? "

Su Yu turned to look at him, his eyelashes moved: "No."

Huo Ran naturally knew that she had already encountered a confrontation from public opinion because of a wrong judgment.He smiled: "Do you think they are strange?"

Su Yu was silent for a while.The smile on Huo Ran's lips deepened, he changed the subject and asked, "Where will I send you back?"

Su Yu said, "Go back to my apartment."

Huo Ran's slender fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel, and he gave a rambling "um", and the car finally stopped downstairs in a residential area.

Su Yu came back to his senses, unbuckled his seat belt, and looked outside.Only then did she realize that this was not her apartment downstairs.

Huo Ran had already opened the car door and said, "Let's go."

Su Yu asked him, "Where is this place?"

"My house." Huo Ran's tone was calm, as if he didn't notice her surprise, "Go up."

"But I'm going home."

Huo Ran didn't answer.

Su Yu didn't know why she went up, Huo Ran opened the door, and she followed in blankly.

The living room of the apartment is large, with Nordic-style wood-grained floors that are very low-key. There is a simple geometric coffee table in front of the brown-gray sofa, and the carpet is soft light gray.

Su Yu glanced at it, and for some reason, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.The apartment looked a little empty, and there seemed to be no trace of a woman's life.

Huo Ran handed her a pair of men's slippers, and he put on the same slippers himself, then put down his briefcase, took off his long black coat, and loosened his tie, a little loose.

"What to drink?"

Su Yu put on the slippers, as if stealing an adult's shoes: "It's fine."

It's winter now, Huo Ran simply boiled the water and asked her to make tea by herself.After a while, he asked again: "What do you want to eat?"

Su Yu was stunned. Does he want to cook?
Huo Ran frowned, held Su Yu's wrist, and fixed it, with a little force, and Su Yu felt a little pain.

She came back to her senses and took a closer look, only to find that the hot water in the kettle was about to overflow from the small teapot.

Huo Ran looked down at her: "Be careful."

"Oh." Su Yu's eyes fell on Huo Ran's hand holding her. His fingers were slender and white, with well-defined joints. The veins on the back of his hand showed strength, and the palm of his hand was tightly attached to her wrist bone.

The skin on her wrist was hot and hot as if it had been scorched by fire.Her skin was thin, and she blushed easily, but now her ears were red again.

Huo Ran maintained a slightly bent posture, supported the back of the sofa with one hand, looked at her, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I'll make something for lunch." He straightened up, and Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Huo Ran's kitchen is not open. When he was cooking, he closed the door, and Su Yu didn't have the nerve to follow.She sat for a while and felt bored, so she stood up and walked to the clean floor-to-ceiling glass door, unscrewed the door and walked out.

The balcony is large, and there is a table covered with light blue velvet outside.The winter wind brought low temperature, and the awe-inspiring chill blew on her face, reducing the scorching heat on her face.When the wind blew, she also calmed down.

Su Yu put his hands on the cold black railing, looking at the rolling green hills in the distance, covered with a thin layer of snow, and the nearby trees only had dry branches. When the wind blows, the snow on the branches It shook all over the place.

There was a faint loss in her heart, as if she had entered a period of emotional depression, her heart sank in the dark water, with a sense of trembling.

Su Sheng's case was solved, and she should have been happy, but the tension in her mind was suddenly broken, and she felt a sense of bewilderment.

Huo Ran's words kept echoing in her ears.

What's wrong with serving justice, she thought?Victims are inherently vulnerable. They have suffered injuries and even lost their lives. Their rights and interests can only be safeguarded by the public security organs.As for the criminal suspects, over the years, she has seen all kinds of criminal suspects. Some people pretend to repent in court, and some people can't even make superficial repentance. He glared at the judge and the prosecutor with vicious eyes.

In her eyes, it was only a matter of time before those people were called suspects or criminals.When she found sufficient evidence on behalf of the prosecution and filed an appeal, in her heart, they had already been convicted.but……

Su Yu's eyelashes trembled, this time she stood on Su Cheng's side, from the perspective of the criminal suspect.When so much evidence pointed to him, she didn't think he was the one who committed the crime.

Her fingers were a little stiff from the cold, she turned around and stared at her own reflection on the floor-to-ceiling glass door.She suddenly felt a little ashamed, she had a double standard.

Why did she trust Su Sheng?Just because he was her younger brother, she thought she knew him well, so she trusted him unconditionally.

She handled the unjust case with her own hands, and that person was portrayed by her as a rapist. He said many times that he hadn't done it, but she didn't believe it.

Su Yu pursed his lips, his palms were sticky and sweaty, and his back felt a little chilly.She still remembers the scolding eyes and the pain of being insulted two years ago.But everything was nothing compared to the guilt she felt when she saw the young man she had wronged.

He spent two long years in prison for her mistake.When she saw him again, his spine was bent and bony, and he glanced at her indifferently, without a trace of warmth or resentment, but more like a slap on her face, burning embarrassment like a cluster of fire , burning her conscience.

Su Yu's fingers curled up, his eyes were blank.

Huo Ran came out of the kitchen and stood on the other side of the glass door, holding a plate in his hand, knocked lightly on the door with the other hand, and raised his eyebrows: "Come in, stop blowing the cold wind."

His voice sounded far away through a thick glass door.

At this moment, Su Yu had an illusion that the distance between her and him was too far away, but she didn't know exactly where it was.

The heating was turned on in the room, and the radiator exuded a warm atmosphere. As soon as Su Yu walked in, the cold and warm alternated, which stimulated her to let out a sigh of relief, and her fair hands were a little red and swollen from the cold.

The rice was not good.

The rice cooker in the kitchen was still running, and through the crack of the door, she could see the white smoke coming out of the air hole of the rice cooker.

Huo Ran turned on the TV and handed the remote control to Su Yu: "You can adjust what you want to watch."

He wanted to cook another side dish, and the phone was vibrating again. He put on the earphones, glanced at Su Yu, and went to the kitchen to answer the phone.

Su Yu tuned a few channels at random, and images flashed on the LCD screen, then she stopped her hands, pursed her lips, and stared at the screen with her dark eyes.

"Our reporter broadcast: Today, due to changes in the evidence during the trial, the Dongcheng District Procuratorate found that the evidence of the defendant Su Sheng's intentional homicide was doubtful, and requested in writing to withdraw the prosecution. It is reported that the people's court has made a ruling to allow it."

When the camera turned, it was Xie Suixing's mother.

Because of the recent suffering, she has a lot of gray hair, her face is old, and she looks tired and collapsed: "I don't know what my Xingzi did wrong, why she suffered like this, and I don't know why the court should Withdraw the case, now there is no second suspect at all..."

The reporter asked her: "Mother Xie, will you appeal?"

Xie's mother leaned on the other person's body, weeping uncontrollably: "Yes, I will not let Su Cheng go."

At the end of the scene, Mama Xie passed out from crying.

Su Yu clenched his fingers tightly, and his fingertips had sunk into the tender flesh of his palm due to the force.

These are not the truth, Xie Suixing is innocent, but Su Sheng is also innocent.

The reporter faced the camera and made the final broadcast statement with a sad expression: "It is reported that the lawyer defending Su Sheng this time is Huo Ran. He has defended innocence for notorious rapists and drug dealers. No matter what, we all have to believe that fairness and justice may be late, but they will come."

Su Yu sighed.

Huo Ran walked behind her, put one hand on her side, leaned over and picked up the remote control, not only did not turn off the TV, but instead switched to another station, which was also broadcasting about Su Sheng.

The big headline grabs people's attention—Su Zhiguo's son Su Sheng's murder case was withdrawn by the prosecution, which completely aroused public outrage.

Netizens' comments scrolled across the screen, and the host read them out with a bit of sarcasm.

Someone ridiculed: "Don't be naive, the law is just a game for the powerful, you understand now."

But there was only one sentence that really pierced Su Yu's heart.

"Su Sheng's sister was a prosecutor a few years ago when she disregarded human life and harmed people miserably. Now she is out and jumping again. Doesn't she think that netizens are forgetful? I really hope that Su Sheng is also sentenced to death, so she can feel it That pain."

A chill ran down her back.

Huo Ran has lived with his grandmother since he was a child, so he is very independent. Cooking is not difficult for him. He quickly prepared three dishes and one soup.

Huo Ran sat across from Su Yu, with his eyes downcast, his expression a little indifferent, neither of them spoke.In the meantime, Su Yu clearly felt that Huo Ran's gaze fell on her, and she thought he was going to say something, but he still didn't say anything, and continued to eat with a blank expression.

Su Yu raised his eyelids and looked at him.It was still the same face, with slightly raised eyebrows, a straight nose, thin lips, and he was eating expressionlessly.

It wasn't until he finished his dinner that he wiped his mouth, raised his eyebrows, his eyes were dark and sharp: "Have you finished eating?"

Su Yu's fingers paused, she hardly ate much, but she put down her chopsticks and gave a soft "um".

Huo Ran didn't persuade her to eat, but raised his eyebrows, his voice was a little flat: "I'll take you back later."

"Ah."

After eating, Huo Ran sent Su Yu back.After Su Yu got out of the car, he sat quietly for a while before restarting the car.The phone in the glove box vibrated, and he pressed the answer button.

"Lawyer Huo, I am Liu Muyang's mother. Muyang is a good boy and an excellent teacher. How could he be arrested? I heard from others that you are a good lawyer. I will give you whatever you want... ..."

The person on the other end of the phone was full of broken emotions, and his voice was intermittent and choked.

Huo Ran said indifferently: "Sorry, I won't take this case, you can find another lawyer." After he finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone, and there were faint cries and curses on the other end.

The engine made a sound, Huo Ran stepped on the accelerator, smiled, his eyes were serious, if Su Yu was present, would it make him feel that he was a principled lawyer?

He does have principles.His Adam's apple rolled, and his principle was not to accept unsure cases.

When Su Yu returned to the apartment, Aunt Lin was cleaning and tidying things up.When she heard the door open, she looked up: "Ayu is back."

She poured Su Yu a glass of milk and asked anxiously, "How is Ah Cheng?"

Su Yu: "Ah Cheng is fine, he didn't kill anyone, the real murderer has been caught."

Aunt Lin breathed a sigh of relief. She watched the two siblings of the Su family grow up since she was a child. Later, Su Yu moved out, so she came to take care of them.Although she is not as close to Su Sheng as she is to Su Yu, she knows Su Sheng's character anyway, and she would never believe that he killed someone.

Su Yu went to take a bath, smelled the fragrance, lay down on the sofa relaxedly, and drank the soup stewed by Aunt Lin.

After tidying up the house, Aunt Lin looked at Su Yu's face, she was a little pale, she must have been tired recently.Aunt Lin sat on the sofa and asked softly, "Are you uncomfortable? Come here, and I'll give you a massage."

Su Yu bent his eyes and smiled, then lay on Aunt Lin's lap.Aunt Lin's fingertips were soft, with moderate strength, she gently pinched Su Yu's temples.Su Yu closed his eyes.

Aunt Lin poured some essential oil on her fingertips, rubbed it to warm it up, and then wiped it on.She looked at Su Yu kindly, and said, "After this matter is resolved, this child, Ah Cheng, must be educated by your father."

Su Yu said: "The relationship between Dad and Ah Cheng is already very tense."

"That also needs to be educated well. I hope he will behave better after this incident."

"Yes, I will."

Aunt Lin sighed: "You and Yan Ze have been together for many years, Yan Ze is a good boy, have you ever thought about when to fix the wedding date?"

Su Yu pursed his lips, did not answer, his eyelashes trembled slightly.

Aunt Lin knew Su Yu very well, she sighed softly in her heart, and said nothing more.

Just as he was talking about Chen Yanze, his phone call came.Su Yu stared at the flashing name on the screen, and slid his fingertips over it.She got up, walked into the room, and walked to the fully enclosed glass balcony of the room.

Su Yu leaned against the glass window and looked at the gradually sinking sky outside. Looking over the past, he could see the endless stream of cars, and further outside, there was a remote suburb of the city.

Chen Yanze's voice was unhurried: "Ayu, are you at home?"

"Well, are you still at work?"

"Yeah, are you free tonight? I'll get off work later, and I'll pick you up?"

Su Yu was silent for a while, and subconsciously made an excuse: "I have something tonight, I have an appointment with Xianyu."

Chen Yan didn't know if he had noticed anything, so he smiled and said in a gentle voice, "Okay, I'll pick up Ah Cheng with you tomorrow, uncle asked us to go back to the old house for dinner."

"it is good."

Su Yu hung up the phone, packed up his sports clothes, and planned to go to the gym in the community to exercise, when the phone on the shelf rang again.

Su Yu paused for a moment, and the smile spread out from the corner of his eyes.

"Xianyu, are you back?"

Lin Xianyu yelled: "Ayu, I saw the news, today is really a good day, Su Cheng that stinky boy is fine, and I have returned safely! I have already returned from the train station, starving to death, I want to eat meat Crab stew, let's go to the one near your house to eat!"

Su Yu changed into a suit of clothes, put on a black sweater skirt, a wine red waist-waisted woolen coat, and velvet over-the-knee boots of the same color on his feet, grabbed a small bag and went out.

It was already dark outside, and the street lights were turned on one by one. Su Yu had just parked the car when he saw Lin Xianyu's car.

Su Yu got out of the car and was about to call for someone when he saw a man getting out of Lin Xianyu's car.

This man was a head taller than Lin Xianyu, with a tall and straight figure, short black hair, sharp eyes, deep facial features, and sharp contour lines, while the body hidden under the black jacket revealed muscular muscles.

Su Yu's ability to remember people is quite strong, she frowned, thought for a while, and always felt that this man's face was somewhat familiar.

The man pursed his lips, looked at Lin Xianyu coldly, and said in a deep and forceful voice, "Judge Lin, I leave this matter to you."

Lin Xianyu perfunctory him: "Understood, you can go now."

The man is very sensitive, he immediately noticed Su Yu's gaze, and the menacing gaze was projected on Su Yu's face.He stared at her for a while, expressionless on his face, and finally glanced at Lin Xianyu lightly, turned and left.

Su Yu was still staring at his straight back.

Lin Xianyu rushed up, hooked Su Yu's arm, and the two walked towards the crab pot shop together.When they arrived at the store, according to the old rules, they ordered a large portion of meat and crab stew, plus bullfrog, kelp and two portions of rice.

Su Yu gave an overview of Su Sheng's case, and Lin Xianyu could hear the deep creases between his brows: "Liu Muyang is really not human, he has done so many disgusting things, fortunately you are fine today, I have to report it to the court, the security check It's too weak."

Su Yu's eyelashes trembled: "When I went to school to look for A Sheng, I met Xie Suixing, a cute little girl. But Liu Muyang hasn't explained it yet, and the specific process of committing the crime is still unknown."

Lin Xianyu raised his eyes: "I don't know who the lawyer Liu Muyang entrusted is...Forget it, let's not talk about him, it's a disappointment."

The two chatted one after another.

"By the way, did you and Huo Ran rekindle their love? I've heard about it. He defended Su Sheng, and he worked really hard!"

Su Yu took a sip of his drink and smiled: "It's not like you don't know Huo Ran's dedication."

Lin Xianyu smiled but said, "He is dedicated, but he accepted you as an intern. Hey, the legal circle is so big."

Su Yu was silent, a little dumbfounded.

Lin Xianyu rested his chin on one hand, and said seriously: "To be honest, although I thought Huo Ran wasn't good enough for you back then, after all these years, you didn't like anyone else, and you didn't want to make do with Chen Yan, and you didn't listen to me. If Huo Ran has a girlfriend, it would be great if you were together again. What's more, I know exactly how much Huo Ran liked you back then. "

Su Yu's hand stirring the drink paused, she bit her lip, and her heart beat violently for a moment.

She pursed her lips: "You also said that back then, people like him, how much they liked them back then, may be how much they hate them now. After we separated, we lived in the same city for so long, and only recently did we meet."

Lin Xianyu stared at Su Yu, and after a while, she raised her chin and gave Su Yu a blank look: "Ah Yu, you took the initiative to find this meeting, right? You want to find an excellent defense lawyer for Su Sheng, but B There are so many experienced and famous lawyers in the city, but you picked Huo Ran."

Su Yu was stunned for a moment, then realized: "No..." She paused, as if she didn't know how to explain.Before Su Sheng was imprisoned, she couldn't think of anything else. Her first reaction was to find Mr. Xi, but she couldn't help thinking that Huo Ran was Mr. Xi's beloved disciple.

Her eyes flicked wildly.

Huo Ran was willing to defend Su Sheng. The moment she heard that he wanted her to be his assistant, she felt so complicated that she could hardly express it in words.

She had to admit that she was selfish and wanted to get close to him.

Lin Xianyu understood Su Yu's expression and laughed.

Su Yu took a deep breath, suppressed the surging tide in his chest, changed the subject, and asked, "How is this business trip?"

Lin Xianyu has been away to the countryside for a month, and he has been hunting Lao Lai in other places, running all over the mountains and old forests.When it came to business trips, she felt a little weak: "It's a tragedy. The court's car stopped at the entrance of the village, and the villagers' hatchets were all on their necks, and it was still on my neck."

Su Yu glanced at Lin Xianyu's fair neck, there was a small mark on it.

Lin Xianyu noticed Su Yu's gaze and touched his neck: "It's nothing, it's settled anyway."

When the waiter served the dishes, Su Yu leaned back in his chair to make way for her.The crab pot is filled with the aroma of food and smoky.

Su Yu caught half a crab, put on gloves, and asked through the white smoke, "By the way, who is the man who got off your car just now?" She bent her eyes and said righteously, "Why did he call you Lin?" Judge, please ask you to do something? You must always remember your status as a public servant of the people, and you must not do things that are sorry for the organization."

Lin Xianyu curled his lips: "My blind date. My mother arranged the meeting just when I got home. Just now he asked me to explain it to my mother. It's better to say that I don't like him."

"What does he do?"

"Interpol."

"Oh." Su Yu still felt that he was familiar.

After eating, the two left the shopping mall and chatted while walking on the road.The cold wind was blowing, Su Yu wrapped her scarf tightly, Lin Xianyu said: "I'm so sleepy after eating, I won't go back tonight, I'll go to your place, my mother thought I was going out with my blind date tonight, and when I got home, I went home again." Gotta ask a question."

"Okay."

Lin Xianyu planned to park the car in the parking lot of the shopping mall and come back to drive tomorrow.She got into Su Yu's car and sat in the passenger seat: "I want to sleep well tonight. When I go to the countryside, I'm so depressed that I want to hit someone. After get off work tomorrow, let's go to the gym to box."

Speaking of beating, Su Yu finally remembered something.

She turned her head, stared at Lin Xianyu, and pursed her lips: "Xianyu, do you still remember that you beat your blind date's younger brother?"

Lin Xianyu was startled, and after a long while, he vaguely remembered this person.

That was still freshman year.

She heard that her cousin in elementary school was beaten by a group of senior students, so she went to surround the group of senior students.A college student blocked a group of primary school boys at the entrance of an alley.

Some little boys were scared, some were not, only the little boy who took the lead raised his head, his nostrils turned to the sky, and said coldly, "I'm not afraid of you, I'll call my big brother!"

Lin Xianyu felt it was funny, and put on a cold face: "Tell me, do you still dare to bully Lin Bo in the future? You brat!"

Su Yu took Lin Bo's hand, and whispered to Lin Xianyu: "Let's go, that's enough, when the parents of the child get here, I thought you were going to do something."

Just as he was talking, the sound of steady footsteps and the sound of feet stepping on cans suddenly came from the quiet alley.

Lin Xianyu and Su Yu were slightly startled and turned around.

The group of little kids suddenly became excited, and the kid at the head shouted: "Brother Ting!"

The figure at the entrance of the alley was extraordinarily tall, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on him. Against the light, his figure cast a long shadow on the ground.

When they saw his outline, they knew he had practiced.

The visitor's footsteps landed soundly and steadily, and when he got closer, Lin Xianyu could see his face clearly - sharp edges and corners, deep features, and a coldness that was not easy to provoke.He was also called Brother Ting by a group of brats, he really thought he was a gangster, Lin Xianyu wanted to laugh.

The little kid was proud: "My brother is a policeman!"

Lin Xianyu curled his lips: "Then I'm still a judge, and I'll sentence you, Brother Ting, to life imprisonment!"

How to solve it in the end, Lin Xianyu forgot, only remembered the moment she and he looked at each other, his eyes were calm and without ups and downs, but she just wanted to pluck his eyeballs out.

As for Su Yu remembering this incident, it was entirely because of her that she was not far from the alley when he saw Huo Ran, who was leaning against the wall and standing lazily.

He turned his head, put his hands in his trouser pockets, straightened up and walked towards Su Yu, and just extinguished the cigarette between his fingers.

"Oh, to fight in groups, it's a crime of gathering people to fight."

Su Yu was startled, pursed her lips, and looked at Huo Ran with wide eyes.

Huo Ran said: "You promise me one condition, and I will help you hide it."

Su Yu: "Huh?"

WTF?

In the end, she actually helped him write the "Mao Gui" homework, and she almost broke her hand after copying. After copying, Huo Ran took her to play tennis.

Su Yu was already holding back her anger. She didn't like to swear, but that didn't mean she wouldn't be angry.

When she swung the racket, she fixed her eyes on the ball and swung it towards Huo Ran's head.

Not only did the ball miss Huo Ran, but it also fell to the ground. Because of Su Yu's force, the ball bounced violently the moment it hit the ground, and finally stuck firmly at the height of the barbed wire on the tennis court.

Embarrassed.

In the end, it was Huo Ran who kicked the wire fence, and the ball wobbled and fell down.

He looked at her sideways: "oh, look, I helped you again, and you owe me one more time."

Su Yu silently suppressed the anger in his heart, as if he didn't hear anything, he just kicked him, and want her to owe him again?
She thought shyly that if she kicked like this, the whole barbed wire might fall down.

She should have kicked Huo Ran again.

The next day, Su Yu woke up very early, and the court informed her that she could pick up Su Sheng.

Su Yu and Lin Xianyu got up and drove to the detention center.There are bare trees on both sides of the road, and the desolate mountains in the distance make it even more chilly.

Huo Ran's car had already parked at the gate of the detention center. He seemed to have come very early. Su Yu locked the car door, raised his head, and saw Huo Ran and Su Sheng coming out together.

Huo Ran's face was pale, he was wearing a neat and well-tailored black suit, and he was carrying a briefcase in his hand.Su Cheng was wearing a white down jacket, his face was pale, and there were heavy dark circles under his eyes. The scars from the beating on his face had not faded, and he looked a little thin.

He raised his eyelids and looked at the weak winter sun, which seemed a little dazzling.

Suddenly a world away.

Su Yu called his name.

Su Cheng raised his head to look at her, a gleam of water flashed in the boy's black eyes, and the circles of his eyes suddenly turned a little red.

His thin lips moved, and after a while, he called softly: "Sister."

Su Yu pursed her lips and looked away.

Lin Xianyu smiled lightly, leaned into Su Yu's ear and said, "Oh, Su Cheng is just a brat, don't get angry with him, it will be fine when the matter passes."

Huo Ran was not surprised to see Lin Xianyu, and nodded lightly.

Lin Xianyu is a judge of the Executive Bureau, and has hardly had any contact with Huo Ran in the past few years. However, in college, Huo Ran always pestered Su Yu, and Lin Xianyu also annoyed him, so the relationship between the two has always been indifferent.

Su Yu took Su Sheng back to the Su family's old house.

Along the way, Su Cheng was very silent, did not speak, quietly looked out of the window, his single eyelid was slightly drooping, and his dark pupils were emotionless, which made people feel a little distressed, after all, he was just a big boy.

Su Yu didn't take the initiative to talk to him, he had to walk the road of life by himself, and he had to walk over such hurdles by himself.

The old house is located in the ancient mountain villa area in the east of the city. The mountains are quiet, the sun is thin, and the shade of the trees is layered. The car passing by startled the birds on the branches and shook off the rustling snow.

Su Sheng entered the room first, Su Yu looked at his slightly bent back, and did not speak.

Lin Xianyu was silent for a moment, and said: "He should be feeling very uncomfortable now. Young people always think that love is very important. He probably still can't accept that Wen Yao lied to him."

"Ah."

The servants were busy up and down, and after tidying up, the villa looked even cleaner.

Aunt Lin also returned to the old house today, and placed a brazier at the gate, with sandalwood, lychee wood and grapefruit leaves burning in the basin.She bent down, sprinkled three coins of red beans and cinnabar, and said brokenly: "Ah Cheng, come on, step over, go and get rid of bad luck."

Su Cheng smiled, and stepped over obediently.

His thin appearance made Aunt Lin feel very distressed.

The long dining table with solid wood carvings is full of dishes, all of which are Su Sheng's favorite food, and the bunch of hyacinths in the center of the dining table is also Su Sheng's favorite flower.

Lin Xianyu hugged Aunt Lin and acted coquettishly: "Aunt Lin, I still want to eat your braised lion head today."

"Good good!"

Not long after they entered the house, there was the sound of the engine shutting down again from outside the house, the car door was closed, and the sound of steady footsteps came into the house one after another.

Walking in front was Su Zhiguo who had just returned from a business trip. He took off his coat and scarf and threw them to the servants, revealing his iron gray suit.He looked down and saw Su Sheng nestled on the sofa, with a gloomy face, a chill between his brows, and his voice sounded like Hong Zhong: "Su Cheng, come here!" He said, spreading his right hand.

The butler was startled and froze for a moment, then was scolded by Su Zhiguo who was furious: "What's the matter? You still don't go get the stick?"

"This..." The butler was a little hesitant. There were a lot of outsiders today, and the one who came in after Su Zhiguo was Chen Yanze.

Chen Yan also took off his coat. While handing the clothes to the servants beside him, he turned his head to look at Su Yu, a little smile appeared in his eyes like black glass beads, like clear water.Although he has been in the mall for many years, he always looks clean and clear.

Su Zhiguo didn't regard Chen Yanze and Lin Xianyu as outsiders at all, and frowned: "Go and get the stick!"

The housekeeper glanced at Su Yu, Su Yu pursed his lips, and said, "Dad, he has grown up, so it's not appropriate to use family law."

These words ignited Su Zhiguo's gun barrel, and the veins on his forehead bulged: "It's not suitable now, when will it be suitable? He almost went to prison, so it's not suitable until he is sentenced to death?"

Seeing that no one was picking up sticks, he strode up to Su Sheng in a few strides and kicked over the small coffee table in front of the sofa.

The coffee table overturned, the hot tea splashed out, and the porcelain cup broke into pieces on the mahogany floor.

There was no expression on Su Sheng's face. He stood up, lowered his eyes, and his lips were very pale.

Su Zhiguo couldn't understand his dead appearance, stared coldly at his bruised and swollen face, raised his hand and slapped the injured area mercilessly: "Stinky boy, You are capable, not only learned to hang out with cronies, but also learned to take the blame for women! This time, you should die in prison, and save you from harming this family! You also said that you want to discredit your mother and take revenge on me, you Is that how you seek honor and revenge?"

The entire villa became even quieter, no one spoke, and it seemed that no one was breathing.

There was a glaring red mark on Su Sheng's fair cheeks, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding a bit.He tilted his head, still lowered his eyes, pursed his thin lips tightly, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, tears hit the back of his hand, the back of his hand was slowly exerting force, his fingertips were white, his fingers were clenched, and his veins were heaving.

He still didn't say anything.

Su Zhiguo was so angry that his chest kept heaving, and he waved his thick palm like a cattail fan, but this hand froze in mid-air, trembling, and finally did not fall again.

Chen Yan walked over in a timely manner, and said gently: "Uncle, Ah Cheng knows that he is wrong, let's eat."

Su Zhiguo needs such a step for him to walk down.

He snorted coldly and withdrew his hand.

Several people were seated, and the dining atmosphere was too quiet. Only Chen Yan kept talking to Su Zhiguo. The main content of the conversation was how to restore the company's reputation. If necessary, the Chen Group will definitely help.

Su Zhiguo's tense face finally improved, he loosened his frown and looked at Su Yu: "During this time, you have been busy with Su Sheng's affairs, and you and Yan Ze's affairs should almost be put on the agenda gone."

Su Yu's chopsticks stopped, she raised her eyelids in a daze, and looked at Chen Yanze.

Chen Yan's eyes darkened slightly, and he pursed his lips.

Su Zhiguo continued: "You don't have to go back to work in the company anymore. I will ask the HR department to recruit people from the legal side. You should take a good rest recently."

Su Yu was silent for a while.

Lin Xianyu looked at her worriedly, and was just about to say something to make jokes.

Su Yu spoke with a soft voice and firm eyes: "Dad, I also wanted to talk to you about the legal affairs. Uncle Zhao is already looking for a new legal team leader."

Su Zhiguo met Su Yu's eyes with warnings, as if he knew what Su Yu was going to say.

"Dad, I haven't planned to get married so early."

Su Zhiguo's eyes were dark.

Su Yu said again: "Also, I plan to become a lawyer."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Su Zhiguo's sneer in the next second. He said angrily, "Being a lawyer? I think it's fake for you to be a lawyer. It's true that you want to follow that brat Huo Ran!"

Su Yu pursed his lips tightly, without saying a word, and without avoiding his eyes.

"Huo Ran has no father and no mother, and his family is poor. Even if he is a lawyer now, the money he earns by working so hard is not as much as the words, so what are you trying to do? Is the words not good for you? You have to go out and tell others !" When Su Zhiguo spoke, he didn't care about Chen Yanze at all.

Chen Yan lowered his eyes gently, covering the complex emotions in his eyes.

After a meal, everyone broke up unhappy.

Lin Xianyu was also embarrassed to stay at Su's house, and after saying goodbye to several people, Su Zhiguo arranged for a driver to take her home.

Su Yu slept in the old house. She was lying on the bed, slowly looking at the lamp hanging above her head, the light was dimmed, and when she closed her eyes, her mind was full of halos.

Someone knocked on the door.

Su Yu got up, checked the pajamas, and then went to open the door.

Chen Yan stood straight outside the door, looking down at Su Yu.

Su Yu stepped aside and let him in.

There was a small sofa in the room, covered with white lace embroidered sofa cushions, and the giant doll on the sofa was a gift from Chen Yanze.

At that time, he took over a toy company under the group and gave her the first doll he participated in designing and producing.

He sat down and lowered his eyes, Su Yu couldn't see his expression clearly, only saw him playing with the doll and smiled: "Time flies so fast."

"Ah."

"Are you going to be Huo Ran's intern?"

"Ah."

Chen Yan raised his eyes and smiled lowly: "You still can't forget him?"

Su Yu didn't answer.

Chen Yan asked her to sit down too, but she hesitated for a while before sitting down.

He stroked her hair, smiled faintly, looked down at her hair twirling, and his heart trembled slightly.His slender fingers went down, clasped her shoulders, and embraced her.

Su Yu's body froze, turned sideways, and took a deep breath: "Yan Ze, we agreed at the beginning that we would only perfuse my father, and when he proposed engagement, he would neither refute nor agree... I know you will never forget senior sister, and you will always Thank you for taking care of me like a brother and helping my dad..."

Before she finished speaking, Chen Yan interrupted her, staring at her: "How do you thank me?"

Su Yu was taken aback.

He asked: "Do you agree to all my requests? Then I ask you not to approach Huo Ran, not to become a lawyer..." His eyes were very calm, not oppressive, very peaceful, and his tone was not rushed , with a consistent demeanor.

Su Yu moved his lips, but couldn't say a word.

Chen Yan sighed inwardly, and said in a low voice, "I won't force you."

He stood up and walked out with his back to Su Yu.

Su Yu didn't know why it became like this. Back then, she and Chen Yan had agreed to a fake engagement, because they knew that what they had between each other was pure brother-sister relationship. He had a senior who had been waiting for him, and she wanted to deal with her father. .

"Aren't you waiting for Senior Song Yi?" She asked.

Chen Yan's pace paused slightly, and after a while, he turned his head, his eyebrows lowered, and his gentleness was rare: "I won't wait."

Su Yu stared at him blankly, the bright light was pouring down, and his eyebrows were stained with frost.

I don't know what fell outside the window, and the birds flew around in shock.

After a few days, the investigation of Liu Muyang's case was finally over, and Liu Muyang explained how he committed the crime.

Qin Yu called Su Yu and explained the story, but asked Su Yu not to publish the details on the Internet, and not to make remarks about the case, so as not to guide public opinion.

Naturally, Su Yu would not do this, even though Su Sheng is still scolded bloody by netizens.

She hung up the phone.

Su Sheng in the living room was watching the news.

"Professor of University B was arrested on suspicion of killing Xie Suixing. The professor was revealed to have sexually assaulted many female college students. The society asks how can a university professor become a social scum?"

He caught a glimpse of Su Yu coming in, pressed the remote control, turned off the TV, picked up the iPad beside him, and played the game again.

Su Yu smiled, paused, and said, "Liu Muyang explained the process of committing the crime."

Su Sheng turned off the iPad: "Yes."

"You don't need to take notes anymore."

Su Sheng gave a soft "um", and his knuckles turned white with force.After a long silence, he said, "Sister, did I do something wrong?"

"You were wrong, but not a big one."

She stood for a long time before smiling slightly at Su Sheng: "Ah Cheng, you are still young, this is just a small difficulty in your life. Do you still remember the gift you gave me when I resigned from the procuratorate two years ago? A few words from a few meters?"

——Getting lost is also part of walking.

As long as it ends up moving forward.

She pursed her lips slightly and looked out the window.

The temperature outside is very low, the sky is gray, the branches are bare, and there is a breath of winter, but the dense fog in her heart slowly dissipates.

The pictures come and go, and finally stay on Huo Ran's handsome face with thin lips tightly pressed, which will not leave for a long time.

On Monday, Su Yu officially went to work in the law firm.

I don't know what Chen Yanze said to Su Zhiguo. After that, Su Zhiguo no longer cared about Su Yu's going to be a lawyer.

Su Yu got up early, went downstairs, and saw Chen Yanze sitting at the dining table.

Chen Yan wanted to send her to the law firm, but she wanted to refuse.

Chen Yan saw her reaction in his eyes, smiled and said: "Ayu, let me take you there, even if I am not a boyfriend, am I not the brother who grew up with you?" He obviously didn't say that it was irrelevant. Yes, but faintly under pressure.

Su Yu stared at him for a while and agreed.

Half an hour later, Chen Yanze's Mercedes-Benz stopped under the law firm building. Su Yu unbuckled his seat belt, got off the passenger seat, walked around the front of the car, and walked towards the building.

Chen Yan stopped her from behind.

She turned back.

He rested his elbow on the car window, looked at her gently, and asked her to move closer to him.She walked over obediently, his black pupils were a little darker, he suddenly hooked her neck, and moved a little closer to her.

Su Yu's pupils dilated slightly, obviously frightened.

Chen Yanze's kiss finally landed on her forehead, and there was a pause for a few seconds before his lips left.He spoke with a hoarse and indifferent voice: "Ayu, I don't want to wait any longer."

Su Yu was stunned.

On the seventh floor of the building, in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, stood a tall and tall figure. He looked down at the inseparable two people downstairs, his face was expressionless, and the chill in his eyes was piercing.

Lu Yuzhou leaned on the sofa chair behind Huo Ran, lazily, jokingly said: "The little princess is coming today, did you just buy this suit on you? Not bad, the 'straight man' also knows how to dress up." He Looking Huo Ran up and down, he continued, "But it's normal, it's the same when you fell in love with the little princess in college. What impresses me the most is that you ruined your beloved mountain bike, what a cool car, but you forced it I added a back seat to it, and the most terrible thing is a back seat with a pink upholstery, just in case others don’t know that you are going to use it to carry your girlfriend.”

Huo Ran turned around, raised the corners of his mouth, and his eyes slowly fell on Lu Yuzhou: "Really?"

He slowly loosened his tightly clenched fingers, and reminded Lu Yuzhou lightly: "Just now the front desk said that you have a customer coming."

Lu Yuzhou loves acting very much. He stood up from the sofa like a carp, slapped the documents in his hand on the table, and frowned: "I'm not working anymore!"

Huo Ran glanced at him: "Then you go through the resignation procedures."

Lu Yuzhou flattered him wisely, picked up the materials, and blew up unnecessary dust: "Forget it, forget it, I'm just joking, making money is the most important thing, making money is the most important thing."

After Lu Yuzhou left, Huo Ran sat back in the armchair, looked out of the French window, and the scene just now reappeared.He didn't know how many times such a scene would happen where he couldn't see it.

His fingers clenched little by little, and then gradually loosened, his brows were furrowed, and the irritability in his heart was lingering.

He stood up, couldn't hold back after all, kicked the chair, the wheels rolled, and the chair hit the table, making a moderate noise.

The office door was not closed tightly, and Lu Yuzhou's voice came from outside the door: "Su Yu, you have come to report."

Lu Yuzhou introduced Su Yu to the front desk: "This is a new intern from our law firm. The one who interns with Lawyer Huo is called Su Yu."

He deliberately did not mention Su Yu's experience in the Procuratorate.

Su Yu bent his lips and smiled: "Hello, my name is Su Yu."

Several people chatted for a while, and Lu Yuzhou took Su Yu to familiarize himself with the environment of the law firm: "This is a tea room, you can ask the front desk what beverage you want to drink and what tea you need. Of course, whether you choose it or not depends on the budget; A printer, used like any other printer."

After watching the law firm, Lu Yuzhou opened the door of Huo Ran's office, and said to Su Yu: "Your office should be located here at Ah Ran's place. Anyway, you are his intern, so just listen to him. I'll wait a while." Get someone to move a table over."

Su Yu followed Lu Yuzhou in, and before he entered, he met Huo Ran who was about to go out.

He was standing in front of her with a black coat on his wrist.

Where Su Yu looked at him was his adam's apple that moved up and down slightly, and up and down his jaw with sharp lines, tight thin lips and straight nose.

He didn't even look at her, walked around her as if she was just a stranger, and walked out.

Lu Yuzhou froze for a moment, twitched the corner of his mouth, and called him, "Ah Ran."

Huo Ran said calmly: "You can arrange it."

What the hell?Lu Yuzhou thought, isn't this already arranged?Ah Ran, what kind of wind is this again?

Su Yu pursed his lips and remained silent, his eyebrows twitched twice.

Huo Ran was not here, Su Yu had nothing to do, Lu Yuzhou was afraid that she would be bored, so he simply took her to meet the client.

Lu Yuzhou usually takes divorce cases, and he met with two parties in the morning.

One of the parties involved was a wealthy businesswoman, with flaming red lips, exquisite makeup, and a flowery smile.She sat down and let the tall bodyguard behind her back.

"Lawyer Lu." She rested her chin on her white hand.

Lu Yuzhou leaned lazily on the sofa: "Miss Xu, this is my intern, Su Yu."

The other party didn't care about Su Yu at all, and looked at Lu Yuzhou winkingly for a while, then said lightly, "You're still quite determined." Then, her fingers painted with red nail polish waved in front of them, and her white wrist On top is a rose gold bracelet.

She pushed the phone in front of Lu Yuzhou and Su Yu: "I want a divorce, Lawyer Lu has a look at this."

Su Yu also leaned over curiously to watch, it was a video.

Lu Yuzhou clicked on the play.

"Ah... ah... push hard..."

The low panting of the man and the coquettish moans of the woman resounded in the restaurant. It was obviously a video of her husband cheating secretly shot by a wealthy businesswoman.

Lu Yuzhou cursed, turned off the video in a hurry, and turned his head to tell Su Yu not to watch, but he still didn't block the contemptuous eyes that shot from all directions.

The other party was a housewife, her eyes were swollen from crying, she was sitting across from her and kept wiping her tears, and the child in her arms was also crying.

Su Yu had no choice but to go over and help coax the child.

The housewife has been out of society for a long time, and her husband suddenly proposed a divorce. She was at a loss, and she burst into tears: "Lawyer, what should I do? My husband said that I want a divorce, so what should I do with my children? He also said , He and I have already reached the standard for divorce, what is the standard for divorce?"

Seeing her crying so badly, Lu Yuzhou handed over a tissue: "Are you married?"

"Of course it's over."

He was poor-mouthed and wanted to make the other party happy: "Then you have indeed met the divorce criteria..." After that, "Of course, it's your husband talking nonsense. Divorce is still undecided." Before she could say this sentence, the housewife collapsed up.

"You black-hearted lawyer, have you been bought by my husband?"

Su Yu couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing with a "poof".

For several days in succession, when Su Yu went to work in the law firm, he either couldn't see Huo Ran, or Huo Ran ignored her.

Huo Ran is not busy, he has handled several cases in a row before, and now he is in a rest period.

Su Yu saw that he didn't want to talk to her, and didn't know why he didn't want to talk to her, so he simply didn't think about it.She moved a bunch of documents and files, and carefully browsed the files with a pen in hand. If she didn’t understand something or thought it was critical, she would write it down in her notebook. The small table was full of legal rules and manuscript paper.

On this day, her "big aunt" came to visit, and she felt a little pain in her stomach, and there was a faint pain in her lower abdomen.After sitting for a long time, her lower back felt a little sore, so she stood up and was about to go to the tea room to order some hot water.

She subconsciously glanced at Huo Ran's desk, but no one was there.

The sunlight came in through the gaps in the shutters, fell on the criminal law books spread out on the table, and then passed over the unique pen in the pen holder.

Su Yu looked away, and the office door was pushed open.

Huo Ran took a large paper cup and placed it on Su Yu's table, and took the empty cup in her hand with his right hand.

Su Yu was stunned for a moment, and looked down.

The liquid contained in the paper cup was light and dark in color, with a faint aroma wafting up.

Huo Ran spoke with a hoarse voice, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time: "This is brown sugar water, give me your cup, and I'll go out and pour you boiling water."

Su Yu was taken aback again.

Her menstrual period has not been very accurate, and it has been changing in the past few years. Sometimes it is the beginning of the month, sometimes the middle of the month, and sometimes the end of the month. Even five years ago, Huo Ran remembered the time of her period, but now the time is different. ah.

Could it be that her face was too ugly and pale that Huo Ran noticed?
Huo Ran lowered his eyes to look at her, curled his mouth slightly, raised his eyelids, and suddenly leaned over to approach her, with an obvious smile in his voice: "Su Yu, have you brought spare pants?"

Su Yu raised her eyes and slowly came to understand, and then she saw her slowly flushing face and bewildered expression in his clear pupils.

She felt like the top of her head was going to smoke.

So are her pants dyed red?

She remembered that she was walking back and forth between her desk and the bookshelf behind Huo Ran.She was wearing white wide-leg trousers today, if they were accidentally stained with blood, Huo Ran who was sitting would definitely be able to see them very clearly.Since Huo Ran knew, why didn't he tell her in the first place?
Huo Ran didn't say anything, straightened up, took her water glass and poured water.

Lu Yuzhou was also in the tea room, slowly brewing coffee, and asked about Su Yu again: "What are you playing these days? Why are you pretending to be indifferent again? Be careful to overplay it, chickens will fly and eggs will hit you. Didn't catch it."

Huo Ran snorted and didn't speak.

Lu Yuzhou finished clicking and didn't say anything.His coffee was just finished, he took a sip of the coffee happily, and just about to leave, Huo Ran's indifferent voice came from behind, saying: "Su Yu is not feeling well today, please ask the front desk to bring her food in at noon .”

Lu Yuzhou sneered when he heard this.

At noon, Huo Ran went to the mall to buy a pair of pants of the same style as Su Yu's, and put them on her desk.

Su Yu's ears turned red from embarrassment, and he lay on the table, dawdling for a long time before changing his pants.

But until she got off work, she didn't see Huo Ran again.

Su Yu packed up his things and walked to the parking lot.She walked to her car, raised her head casually, and caught a glimpse of a tall and familiar figure through the night.

Huo Ran was wearing a light gray scarf, and a long black coat set off his broad shoulders and long legs. The light in the parking lot was thin, and the expression on his face was also cold. Compared with before, he seemed to be colder.

Su Yu hesitated for a moment, wanting to stop him, but in the next second, she saw a woman beside him.

This woman is wearing a seasonal hand-painted rose velvet dress with ribbon trim, and a pair of black over-the-knee boots on her feet. Human glimmer.

The parking lot was very quiet, and the woman's voice was very clear.

She said: "Huo Ran, my parents asked you to come to my house for dinner tonight, they haven't seen you for a long time."

Huo Ran gave a faint "hmm".

Su Yu looked at that woman for a long time before he remembered who she was, Huo Ran's childhood sweetheart——Qi Ruo.

Qi Ruo has changed a lot, and Su Yu's last impression of her was five years ago.

At that time, Qi Ruo was full of pride, but said with red eyes: "Su Yu, please let go of Huo Ran, you two are not suitable at all, you are a high-ranking young lady, but he is a man who can't afford tuition and living expenses. A poor boy who needs to be responsible for himself. Do you know that he worked three consecutive jobs in order to buy you this dress on your body? It will ruin his future."

Unexpectedly, five years later, Qi Ruo, who was once so noble, has become the mobile luxury shelf she despises the most.

Su Yu twitched the corners of his mouth lightly, a faint mockery appeared between his brows.

After a while, Huo Ran drove Qi Ruo away.

Su Yu sat quietly in the driver's seat, leaned over to pick up the wallet from the passenger seat, and stared at the row of bank cards in the wallet, a little distracted.

She thought, what's wrong with spending money on her?How did you say that sentence?

Whenever she encountered a setback and cried like a fool, it wasn't because she spent money on bags, shoes, and lipstick that she survived.

Su Yu drove home and got out of the car. Instead of going directly into the apartment building, he walked slowly in the neighborhood for a while wearing high heels.

A lot of snow fell on the road, and there was a faint fluffy feeling when stepping on it, and there was a slight "creaking" sound. In fact, her lower abdomen was already hurting, but she was still walking.

She raised her head and looked at the night, it was as black as ink, like a huge black velvet cloth covering the sky, maybe because of the thick night, even the full moon hung high, the light seemed a bit dim.

After a while, Su Yu returned to her apartment, lying lazily on the sofa with a hot water bottle on her belly, she glanced at the clock on the wall from time to time.

By 08:30, her stomach seemed to ache less.

Originally, she planned to go to bed, but she was thinking about things, so she was not sleepy at all, so she simply wrapped up her coat and drove out.

Her car was parked directly outside Huo Ran's community.

She thought, Huo Ran should come back after dinner, right?

The security guards did not allow her car to enter the complex, so she had to park outside the complex.

Su Yu's mind was blank, she didn't know why she was so impulsive, and she didn't know what she wanted to do here, she just wanted to see Huo Ran, wanted to see if he would come back tonight, and wanted to ask him , What is the relationship with Qi Ruo now.

Su Yu squatted on the ground, pressing her lower abdomen, a dazzling light came from a distance in front of her, she raised her head, squinted her eyes slightly, and saw a black car slowly parked in front of the community.

The man got out of the car and walked slowly in front of her, and the pair of shiny black leather shoes appeared in front of her.

Su Yu's eyes slowly moved up.He was wearing black trousers and a white shirt, with a white scarf peeking out from the chest of his suit jacket.

He looked down at her condescendingly.

As the cold wind blew, Su Yu's hair tipped up gently, and then fell down again. She raised her head, and under the bright car lights, her chin became more and more pointed, her complexion was pale, and she was thin and weak.

Her lips are very pale because she has no makeup on.

The man looked calm: "What are you doing here?"

Su Yu wanted to stand up, but because of squatting for too long, his calf was numb and his blood supply was insufficient, so he shook slightly.

Huo Ran frowned, gave Su Yu a hand, and let her go when she stabilized.

With a slight chill on his body, he frowned, and his voice was extremely cold: "You are not feeling well, go back early."

He glanced aside, noticed that she was driving, turned and left.

Su Yu stared at his back as he was leaving, remembering how Qi Ruo came to demonstrate five years ago, and the picture of him and Qi Ruo studying abroad together, and Qi Ruo leaning on him tonight and acting like a spoiled child.In the end, the image that stayed in her mind was only his face looking at her coldly.

There was a wave of waves in her heart, and a sour smell appeared.

An inexplicable panic slowly crept into her mind from the soles of her feet. Apart from the panic, there was also an indescribable anger.

Why, why is he so indifferent to her?She thought about it, and ran up the next second, wrapping her arms around his waist from behind.

Because of the sudden movement, he staggered a bit.

Her slender hands tightened a little, not letting him go, and her cheek was pressed against his back.Her heart was beating fast, and she felt an inexplicable sense of shame, and her thin skin seemed to be able to feel the hard muscles of his back.

Huo Ran didn't speak, Su Yu felt that she had to say something to break the silence.

She asked, "Did you go to Qi Ruo's house for dinner tonight?"

He didn't answer, his eyes were slightly lowered, and his brows were slightly furrowed.The thin moonlight shrouded him, making his silhouette deep, and in the half-light, she couldn't see his expression clearly.

Su Yu swallowed, and said softly: "Today, I saw you and Qi Ruo in the parking lot, are you with her?"

Huo Ran was silent for a while when he heard this, and then asked in a low voice, "Why are you asking this?"

Su Yu's fingertips tightened even more, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.Her thoughts were in a mess, and she hadn't sorted it out clearly. There were obviously a lot of words backlogged in her throat, but she couldn't speak as if they were blocked by something.

There was another long silence, Huo Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, and slowly opened her hand holding him.

The cold wind blows, taking away the temperature of the skin surface, causing a shiver.

Su Yu's heart was also a little cold, she pursed her lips and gritted her teeth: "Did you like..." She paused again in the middle of speaking.

Huo Ran sighed deeply in his heart.

After the joy at the beginning subsided, only a heavy sigh remained. He felt a little tired, whether it was his body or his mind.

After thinking about it, he felt a little sad for himself, because he was too easily satisfied, and he was already very happy if she was willing to take such a step.

He waited for this step for too long.

She only needs to take the first step, and he can finish the remaining dozens of steps.

Huo Ran turned around, looked down at her with deep black eyes, and asked calmly, "Do I like something?"

Her chest rose and fell, and she finished speaking: "I like Qi Ruo."

Huo Ran smiled.He leaned down slightly, staring at her with dark eyes, probably feeling uneasy, and his tone was inevitably oppressive when he spoke: "I like Qi Ruo, what's the problem? I don't like Qi Ruo, so it's hard to return like you?"

When Su Yu heard this, his eyes widened slowly, and his heart shrank heavily.

Huo Ran was calm and mean, and said: "Didn't you say that? My world and your world are completely different. The gap between us is too big. I can see from your work status in the past few years that we are indeed different. You receive a meager fixed salary, but you can buy luxury goods and drive a luxury car at will. You don't care whether you will be promoted or whether you can get a raise, because you have a good father and a good bamboo horse As for me, as everyone said, the girl like Qi Ruo is the most suitable for me. I can work hard with her, work hard together, and support myself by my own ability, instead of clinging to you and being said to be Soft rice man."

Su Yu took a deep breath, the pain in his chest was hard to calm down.

She moved her lips: "I didn't."

"Nothing? Didn't you say the above? Or are you not the girl mentioned above?"

Su Yu's chest rose and fell, he clenched his fingers, and his voice became louder: "Enough, you lied! Huo Ran, you don't think so at all!"

Huo Ran pursed his thin lips, his jaw tensed slightly, and said with a sneer, "Yes, I was lying." His eyes were full of anger: "Because you know better than anyone else, and I still like you."

Su Yu was stunned, the anger that had swelled in her chest leaked out as if someone had stabbed her with a needle.Her lips trembled slightly, and a soft heart was roaring in her chest, as if it would jump out of her throat in the next second.

Slowly, she clenched her fingers tightly, and the circles of her eyes turned red a little.

For a while, no one spoke, and time passed extremely slowly in silence.

Huo Ran spoke plainly, breaking the silence. His voice was unwavering, but it was such calmness that made people feel scared: "But liking doesn't mean we want to be together. Su Yu, when I was in college, I was only as good as I used to be." One." In other words, he will no longer pester her, chase her, like her and love her as annoyingly as he did in college.

After speaking, he got into the driver's seat, closed the door, and the car lights flashed twice, and slowly drove into the community.

Su Yu stared at the car he was leaving, and stood there for a long time, her eyelashes trembling, she wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and drove home.

What she didn't notice was that the black car went back and forth, following her car not too far away, watching her return to the apartment before leaving.

Outside the security guard of Huo Ran Community.

The security guard warmly greeted Huo Ran: "Lawyer Huo, was that your friend just now?"

Huo Ran stopped the car, put his elbow on the window, smiled slightly, and said politely: "Yes, if you see this license plate number and the girl just now, please let her in."

"no problem."

Su Yu tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep. She had insomnia.

She stared at the ceiling, blinking her eyelashes, listening to the faint sound of the car outside the window, she only felt endless emotions churning in her chest.

Huo Ran's words were like a slap on her face, which was painful and numb. Those were the words she said when she broke up with him, and they were all words against her will.

On the other side, Huo Ran didn't fall asleep either, he closed his eyes, curled his fingers, and what appeared in front of his eyes was the scene of Su Yu shedding tears just now.

When did he notice Su Yu?Perhaps it was first heard from other people in the same dormitory.

After entering university, Su Yu is a luminous body that cannot be ignored.She is beautiful, has a good family background, has excellent grades, is versatile, has a kind and gentle personality, and is simply the perfect goddess in a man's heart.

Huo Ran heard boys talking about Su Yu on the road more than once.

"You said I'm going to chase Su Yu, can I catch up?"

"You don't look good, you think a lot, there are many people in the whole school who want to chase Su Yu, even if it's not because of her looks, her family background is enough for many people to rush up, you can Don't struggle for a lifetime."

Lu Yuzhou raised his head from the game, leaned over and said to Huo Ran, "This is the legendary RMB player, you can't afford to provoke him."

Huo Ran smiled.

The first time he really noticed her was probably at the orientation meeting.Every year at the entrance ceremony of F University, freshmen have to read the oath of admission. Su Yu, as a student representative, was selected by the teacher to lead the reading on the stage.

She was wearing a white handmade V-neck embroidered skirt with a light georgette fabric, revealing her straight and moist legs. Her whole body exuded the dignity and decency that can only be obtained by being pampered and grown up.

There was warm applause from the audience.

She paused for a moment, exchanged glances with him who was sitting in the first row of the auditorium, and then slowly moved away.

Standing in the center of the stage, her pupils were dark, and she swears earnestly and persistently: "When I step into the sacred school of law... wield the sword of law and hold the balance of justice. Eliminate evil in the world and abide by the sanctity of political law." Her voice is soft and glutinous, but with firm strength.

He leaned lazily on the back of the chair, thinking coldly, how many people can truly fulfill such an oath, what is justice?What is evil?He didn't ask, and no one answered.

On that day, the neat sound of oath resounded throughout the auditorium, and all the quasi-lawyers were excited.

The second time he saw her, he was yawning, stretching his waist, and was about to go to the alley at the south gate to buy some steamed buns, when he glanced inadvertently, and saw a familiar slender figure.She squatted in front of a group of people carrying quilts and mats, meticulous and patient.

Security guards walked around to maintain order.

These are the students of the school's legal aid center. They are helping people who come from other places to appeal or petition, and provide them with the most basic legal aid.

Su Yu also bought them breakfast, and said softly: "Eat slowly. Grandma, what did you just say you wanted to tell me?" Her voice was soft and soft: "Grandma, don't cry, I will Help you write the indictment, do you have a place to stay at night?"

Huo Ran didn't know why, so he stood by the side of the road and listened for a long time.

He remembered that day, when the summer morning wind swayed the mottled branches, he glanced at her and saw that her pupils were astonishingly black and bright, which was unforgettable for a long time.

The third time I saw her was on the playground. He had just finished playing football. He was wearing a sleeveless loose jersey. He kicked the football one by one. The sweat on his forehead dripped down his black hair.

Lu Yuzhou hooked his neck, and suddenly bumped his chest with his elbow: "Hey, hey, look, is that the little princess?"

He looked up lazily, and saw Su Yu wearing sportswear, doing stretching exercises beside her for a while, her skin exposed outside the clothes was so white that it reflected in the sun.

After a while, she put the towel on her shoulders, took out the spray from the bag, and sprayed it on her face, neck and arms. After thinking for a while, she sprayed the broken hair on the forehead to create Sweaty feeling.

The last thing she pulled out was her phone.She turned on the front camera, smiled slightly, a little shyly, and left with a "click" after taking the picture.

Lu Yuzhou couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, who in the dormitory says that the little princess loves sports every day? He said that he often sees her exercising. So she just took a selfie pretending to be herself after exercising?"

Su Yu naturally heard such laughter.

When she turned her head, her fair skin was flushed, her cheeks were puffed up, and her dark eyes were shy and shy, like a kitten who made a mistake but was too shy to admit it.

Huo Ran lowered his eyes, looked at her lazily, and smiled.

He later found out that she only took that photo for Aunt Lin to see, and Aunt Lin urged her to remember to exercise every day, but she was too lazy to go for a run.

The place where they met for the fourth time was even more ridiculous, in a small hotel.

Huo Ran was going to run errands, while Su Yu was going to the suburbs to participate in the law-enlightening activities held by the quasi-lawyer association. She got separated from the big team, and unfortunately lost her wallet and mobile phone, and encountered heavy rain.

She had no choice but to hide under the eaves of the colorful small hotel by the roadside.

The hotel was dimly lit with ambiguous yellow lights. She didn't dare to go in, so she stood at the door and stared at the rain curtain outside in a daze.

The hotel's light boards were flashing red and blue, and there were seventy-seven small pornographic advertisements stuck to the wet ground. The words and pictures on them made people blush.

Inside the hotel, there was a sudden sound of panicked footsteps.

A girl rushed out and bumped into Su Yu. Both she and Su Yu were wearing the same big black coat.

Su Yu froze for a moment, watching the girl run away in a panic, and in the next second, she was suddenly grabbed by the wrist by the police chasing from the hotel.

The policeman was furious: "I have caught you!"

Su Yu didn't react.

The cop looked at her hands.

It was only then that Su Yu realized that at some point, a bunch of small cards were stuffed into her hand. The words "lonely little wild cat" and "pure school girl" on it made her face burn hot.

As soon as she let go of her hand, shameful pornographic cards were scattered on the ground.

The police reprimanded her: "Why didn't you learn well at such a young age? You even came out and distributed pornographic cards."

Su Yu blushed and said, "It's not mine. It was stuffed into my hand by the girl who ran away just now. I'm a law student at F University. I came here to participate in the law popularization activities. I'm just here to hide from the rain."

Yo, I'm still a Falun Dafa student.

"Do you have a student ID card?"

"Did not bring."

"Oh."

It was clearly written on the policeman's face - you can argue, but if you believe me, I will lose.

In the end, Su Yu saw Huo Ran.

Huo Ran's home is near the outskirts of the city. The policeman knew that he was from F University and asked, "Huo Ran, do you know her?"

Huo Ran didn't know why, his brows were slightly raised, a smile flashed in his eyes, he glanced at the card in her hand, and deliberately prolonged the ending: "Yes, well, I have taken care of the business in her hands."

The policeman suddenly realized and stared at Su Yu.

Su Yu was dumbfounded.

From that day on, Huo Ran probably understood that from the day he saw her reading the admission oath, he wanted to take her as his own.

He started to approach her, Lu Yuzhou laughed at him sourly.

He knew she had taken tennis lessons, and he had followed suit.In class, he was always "coincidentally" grouped with her; when she was doing homework, he would casually hook a chair and sit beside her; she participated in the moot court as a judge, and he signed up Looking at the defense lawyer, seeing her daring to speak out, he burst out laughing unconsciously.

During class, he sat behind her, looking at her gently swaying ponytail and fair nape.He heard Lin Xianyu talking about Xiao Huangwen to her. She was thin-skinned and covered her face, but her red ears betrayed her.

He knew she wanted to learn to drive, so he became a coach assistant.

He kissed her in the cramped coach car, and asked her hoarsely: "Su Yu, can you be my girlfriend?"

Su Yu opened his eyes, the sky was bright, the whole city woke up again, the traffic was surging, neat and orderly.

She put her hand over her chest.

After so many years, she still remembers the day when Huo Ran confessed, she ran along the tree-lined path, feeling like her heart was beating wildly.

There was something in the blood that wanted to clamor, something in the throat that wanted to jump out, her heart became very hot, very hot, and very soft.All she wanted was to whimper, toss and roll, and to wag her invisible tail in a place where no one was around—she was overwhelmed with joy.

……

It would be fine if there is no difference, there will be no strangeness now, and she doesn't have to just remember the good things in her dreams.

Su Yu got out of bed, opened the curtains with bare feet, the sun was pouring down, and the dust was floating in the air.She stretched out her fingers, and slowly closed them again.Her fingers were slender and lustrous, with a crystal-clear pink glow under the sun.

However, they still meet again.

Su Yu was quiet for a while, and Aunt Lin was knocking on the door outside: "Ah Yu, wake up and go to work, otherwise it will be too late for breakfast."

"Okay, here we come." Su Yu responded.

After Su Yu arrived at the law firm, Huo Ran calmly explained a lot of things to Su Yu as if nothing had happened.

In the evening, Lu Yuzhou returned to the law firm. He had just won a case and planned to go out to celebrate.He poked his head in: "Su Yu, do you want to have dinner together?"

Su Yu replied: "Okay."

Huo Ran turned a page of the dossier: "Shouldn't you ask me first before you ask my intern?"

Lu Yuzhou didn't care about Huo Ran, and smiled: "Let's go, Lawyer Huo is treating guests today, Su Yu let go of his stomach and eat hard. As far as I know, Lawyer Huo got a lot of money today, and the money from several cases Has it arrived?"

The place to eat is in the shopping mall not far from the law firm building.

Lu Yuzhou suggested: "How about we go eat hot pot? The weather is so cold, just to warm up."

When they were about to reach the restaurant on the seventh floor, Lin Xianyu called. She heard that Su Yu was going to eat hot pot, and she yelled that she also wanted to come over to eat and drink.

Su Yu hung up the phone and asked with a smile, "Do you mind having one more person?"

"I don't mind." Lu Yuzhou said.

Su Yu blinked and added: "It's a judge from the Executive Bureau, her name is Lin Xianyu."

Of course Lu Yuzhou knew Lin Xianyu.

Lin Xianyu was Su Yu's good friend when he was in college, and they had some contact with each other more or less, but after Su Yu and Huo Ran broke up, they naturally had no contact.

Now that everyone finally gets together and is in the same circle, there is naturally a lot of gossip to chat about.

Lin Xianyu clinked glasses with Lu Yuzhou, and she said, "Fortunately, we don't have a joint case on the case at hand, otherwise we wouldn't be able to have this meal together."

Lu Yuzhou drank beer: "Yeah, didn't there be a saying before - you must invite friends from the public security department to treat guests, because they don't have time to eat, and they don't dare to eat if they have time." Laughing non-stop.

Several people were chatting, and the topic of chatting turned to why they went to study law.

There are so many whys.

Lu Yuzhou said: "Everything else is false, the means of making a living, making money is the most important thing."

Lin Xianyu agreed.

Su Yu thought about it for a long time, but couldn't hold back a reason. He felt a little dizzy, so he said, "Maybe I'm kind, and I want to promote justice."

Not surprisingly, she got Lin Xianyu's supercilious look.

Lu Yuzhou took a sip of beer and raised his eyebrows: "Su Yu is the heroine."

Lin Xianyu continued to roll his eyes: "I've never seen a pure and innocent heroine whose hobby is to spend money. You don't even know, when she told me confidently in high school, I even doubted my three views."

Su Yu smiled and rolled his eyes.

Huo Ran didn't answer why he studied law, and Lu Yuzhou didn't ask either.

Su Yu looked at his side face, then pursed his lips after retracting his gaze.She knew why, but she didn't know if he was now out of the invisible prison that had trapped him for so many years.

After dinner, it was still early, and a few people went out.

Lu Yuzhou wanted to let Huo Ran and Su Yu spend more time together. He glanced at the roll-up promotional materials at the entrance of the theater and suggested, "How about we go to the movies?"

"Okay, it just so happens that there are a lot of blockbuster movies recently."

But they came at an unlucky time, and they had to wait for the shows. Finally, they decided to go to the 9D theater on the other side to experience it.

In the 9D theater, there are closed spherical movie viewing cabins. Two people can sit in each cabin, one for Su Yu and Huo Ran, one for Lu Yuzhou and Lin Xianyu.

The staff let them sit in, roughly checked and walked away.

Su Yu felt uncomfortable sitting, the chair was too far back, and she was about to lie down, so she moved very carefully in a small range.Huo Ran turned his face to the side, and said softly: "You can adjust the seat if you feel uncomfortable."

The theater hadn't started playing the movie yet, but the lights had slowly dimmed and it was plunged into pitch darkness.

The staff said: "The video will start playing in 3 minutes."

Su Yu fumbled to adjust the seat, but couldn't find the button.

Her movements froze suddenly.

Huo Ran leaned forward and approached her, turned half of his body, face to face, right in front of her, with one hand in front of her, touched the button for adjusting the seat.

Su Yu raised his eyelids, and all he could see was his smooth jaw.

The two of them were too close, her whole body seemed to be wrapped in his arms, and her breath was filled with the faint breath of his body, which smelled of tobacco and a light male fragrance.

She held her breath and leaned back in the chair, trying to keep some distance from him.

Huo Ran said calmly: "Don't move around." His voice was deep and magnetic, as if the sound of a cello floated past his ears.

His warm breath was on her cheek, he said and then leaned down, pressed the button, and let go of it.At that moment, the back of the chair suddenly moved forward. Due to inertia, she swayed forward, and her lips hit his cheek.Her face became hot and she turned her face away, but unexpectedly he also turned his head and rubbed her ear.

Her cheeks were slightly cool, as were her ears, only her lips were warm and slightly moist.

Su Yu was so uncomfortable that his heart beat violently.

She clenched her fingers tightly, feeling that every pore on her body was stained with his temperature.

Huo Ran looked down at her and leaned over her, breathing slightly undulating, spraying on her forehead.

Until Su Yu couldn't take it anymore, he stretched out his fingers and poked his hard chest, and whispered: "The movie is about to start, please sit down."

He raised his eyebrows in the dark, with a bright smile in his dark eyes, his thin lips slightly curled up, and sat back.

After watching the movie, the atmosphere between Su Yu and Huo Ran became even more subtle.

Lin Xianyu called his family and said that he would live in Su Yu's house. After saying goodbye to Huo Ran and the others, they went back to Su Yu's apartment.

Aunt Lin opened the door for them, took their coats with a smile, shook off the snowflakes that fell on the clothes, and said, "It's snowing outside. By the way, Ah Yu, your courier is on the table. "

Su Yu felt a little strange, she didn't buy anything online recently, but she still walked over, opened the box with a knife, and opened it slowly.

When she saw the contents of the box clearly, her pupils shrank suddenly, and she let go of her hand, and the knife fell to the table with a "snap".

Her fingers were slightly stiff, and her back felt a little cold. She forced herself to calm down and pursed her lips.

Lin Xianyu felt curious, frowned slightly, walked over, and asked, "What's the matter?"

She glanced at the photos in the box, frowned tightly, and then took out those photos from the box.

There are only three photos, all of which are Xie Suixing.They were all the tragic scenes of Xie Suixing's death. There was blood all over the floor, and her abdomen was still bleeding continuously. Her face was pale and stiff, and her eyes were wide open, as if she was glaring at people outside the camera.

The three photos were taken from different angles.

Lin Xianyu said: "This is a photo of the crime scene taken by the police, how could it be sent to you?"

Su Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the three photos fixedly, his face was a little pale.

Lin Xianyu frowned, grabbed a few photos, tore them up and threw them into a box, then put them in a garbage bag.

There is no sender information on the box.

Su Yu lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.After a long time, she finally opened her mouth to say to Aunt Lin: "In the future, if there is no sender's information on the courier, don't sign for it."

Probably because he didn't sleep well all night, Su Yu was a little depressed when he went to work.

When her fingers were flying over the keyboard, Huo Ran's deep and lazy voice sounded behind her: "Did you wake up? What are you typing?"

Only then did Su Yu realize that there were some garbled characters in the form, and she quickly pressed the delete button.

She looked up at Huo Ran and wanted to say something, but Huo Ran had already gone out.After a while, he came in again with a cup of coffee in his hand.He sat down on the sofa, crossed his long legs, and placed a white laptop on his lap. His slender fingers moved on the touchpad, and the cold white light from the screen shone on his deep-lined face, making his eyebrows even more prominent. cold.

He probably noticed her gaze, raised his eyes to look at her softly, and said, "You don't need to pay attention to those photos, they are just mice hiding behind you." He paused and added , "Lin Xianyu told me."

He stood up with his back to the light, and the contours of his body appeared blurred under the light and shadow.He walked in front of Su Yu, leaned over slightly, and the cold breath enveloped her instantly.

"do not be afraid."

Su Yu was slightly stunned, looking at the shadow under his cage, and then raised his eyes to look at his deep eyes.

Her restless heart suddenly calmed down.There was indeed nothing to be afraid of, it was just a case. When she was a prosecutor, she was often threatened.

In the past few years, Huo Ran should have encountered many such things.

The busy time passed quickly, and there was another heavy snowfall in City B. Christmas is coming, and the streets are already full of Christmas atmosphere.

When Chen Yanze called, Su Yu was still urging the bosses to pay. After she hung up the phone politely, she answered Chen Yanze's call.

Chen Yan was in the car with a computer on his lap, and said in a gentle voice, "Let's have lunch together, okay?"

Su Yu glanced at Huo Ran and gave a soft "hmm".

Su Yu hesitated for a moment, wondering if she should tell Huo Ran, but she didn't know what reason to use for what she said.She and Huo Ran really have nothing to do with each other now, and the only thing that matters is the ambiguous relationship.

She hesitated for a while, then went downstairs.

A large fluffy scarf was wrapped around her neck, and her curly black hair hung down softly and was stuffed into the scarf, making her white, tender and petite all the more.

As soon as she went downstairs, she saw Chen Yanze's car at the corner.

She got in the car, and the heater blazed, and she blinked.

Chen Yan stroked her hair and said with a smile, "How's work going?"

"Very good, I learned a lot."

"Today's Christmas, after dinner, I'll pick you up tonight and go to Jay's concert together." He looked down at her, his eyes dark.

Although Su Yu really wanted to see Jay's concert, but the law firm is busy recently, so she dismissed the idea.Now she is still hesitating.

Chen Yan's eyes dimmed: "Ayu, we haven't been together for a long time."

Su Yu raised his eyes, and his black eyes didn't blink: "But Yan Ze, what I said last time was also serious. We can deal with fake engagements first, but we can't get married. You don't like me at all, you just treat me as a Be a sister."

"I know what I think. But Ayu, I know that the two of us are the most suitable. We understand each other and have a good impression of each other. We will not be bored or separated because of this. Even if we get married, we can also be good for each other's family. benefit."

Su Yu took a deep breath and said helplessly, "That's because there is only family affection between us, so you don't feel bored and won't separate."

Chen Yanze's eyes were dark and heavy, but there was a faint smile on his face.

He has always been like this, whether he is happy or unhappy, he always has a smile on his face.He lowered his brows, and said calmly, "Ayu, I won't force you now, just let you play."

Probably still angry, he looked at her, hugged her, and trapped her in his arms, just for a while.Before she could resist much, he let go of her, put away his smile, and said lightly: "I won't eat lunch for now, I'll send someone to pick you up at night."

When getting out of the car, Su Yu was stuffed with two VIP tickets for Jay's concert.

She has nothing to eat, and she still has to suffer.

Su Yu exhaled and walked towards a bakery on the corner of the street.

She first looked out of the glass window for a while, staring at the various cakes on the glass shelf with her black eyes, then straightened up and walked in, picked up the plate, and took five pieces of half-baked cheese, three pieces of rose soufflé and Four pieces of matcha red bean cake, and I went to the store next door to buy ten cups of Internet celebrity milk tea.

After buying the sweets, Su Yu's mood improved.

When she returned to the law firm, she greeted everyone, put milk tea and cake on the table, and smiled: "I bought milk tea, everyone wants to drink it by themselves."

The interns cheered and embraced.

"I've been wanting to drink milk tea for a long time. Sister Yu, have you queued up yet? I'm so touched."

"It's definitely not Yujie's line." An intern smiled, "Didn't you see Yujie get into a luxury car when we were getting takeaway just now? Is it Yujie's boyfriend?"

Su Yu wanted to deny it, but someone pushed open the door behind him.

Lu Yuzhou cleared his throat: "What are you talking about gossip about, hurry up and work, the time is up, do you want to have an early holiday tonight on Christmas Eve?"

Huo Ran showed no expression, and glanced at Su Yu.

Seeing that there were still two concert tickets on the table, he smiled inexplicably, as if he was not in such a bad mood, and asked, "Su Yu, have you signed for my courier?"

Su Yu was startled, she was sucking the cheese in the milk tea, her eyes were round and round, like a cute little hamster, she shook her head subconsciously: "No."

Huo Ran frowned, then glanced at the ticket lightly, pursed his lips, and his Adam's apple moved slightly, as if he understood something.

A slight sarcasm flickered between his brows.

The front desk told Su Yu that there was a courier from Lawyer Huo, and Su Yu originally signed for it, but this time, Huo Ran went by himself.He didn't even look at Su Yu, and said calmly, "I'll get it."

"Oh."

Lawyer Huo seems to be in a bad mood, everyone can tell, even though he still has a slight smile on his mouth, he still works hard as usual, but he hates people more often, especially his beloved trainee lawyer Su Yu .
