Seventy Legally Blonde

Chapter 600 Innocent
It was Guan Ping who answered Gao Zhiyong, and he looked at Gao Zhiyong with a smile, "Nian Nian is my closed disciple, this girl is stubborn, she has caused trouble for Director Gao, right?"

The paper Gao Zhiyong was holding fell to the ground with a clatter.

He smiled awkwardly, lowered his head and picked it up in a hurry. It was the working principles and procedures of Zezhou Legal Consultant drafted by Zhou Niannian.

He originally wanted to show it to Guan Ping and ask Guan Lao to give him guidance. This is Guan Lao. A few casual words from his old man are enough to benefit him a lot.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Niannian turned out to be a student of Guan Lao, or a disciple of Guan Lao.

Subconsciously, Gao Zhiyong tidied up the papers and put them behind him. He looked at Zhou Niannian with a different look, "Lawyer Zhou, you are too modest. I didn't even know that you were Guan Lao's master disciple."

Zhou Niannian smiled, "It's not too late for Director Gao to know."

"It's not too late, it's not too late." Gao Zhiyong wiped the sweat off his forehead in a murmur, secretly glad that he finally sided with Zhou Niannian when he was in Zhang Peilan's case.

If he keeps fighting against Zhou Niannian, and when Zhou Niannian returns to the capital in the future, Guan Lao will say something casually, I am afraid that his career as a director will come to an end.

Gao Zhiyong glanced at Zhou Niannian with a complicated expression. He really didn't expect that this little girl who brought a bird with her when she came to report would be Guan Lao's closed disciple.

It's true that people can't be judged by appearances. Fortunately, after thinking about it, he agreed with Zhou Niannian's decision. Gao Zhiyong couldn't help but praised himself.

Zhou Niannian asked Guan Ping, "Teacher, are you here for Zhang Peilan's case?"

Guan Ping nodded, then shook his head again.

Zhou Niannian was puzzled.

Guan Ping chuckled, "Niannian, this case is no longer just a case. It is likely to reverse a long-standing controversy in our country regarding the trial of criminal cases."

Zhou Niannian naturally knew this, and it was precisely because of this that she asked Qu Xuan to help her report it in the newspaper.

"If this matter goes well, there will be a turning point in our country's legal history, which is a good thing," Guan Ping patted her hand with satisfaction, "Good job, girl."

Zhou Niannian smiled happily when he heard the words. Anyone who heard his teacher's praise would not be able to help being happy.

"When the teacher comes over, the turning point of this matter will be even greater."

Guan Ping patted her hand, but didn't speak.

The progress of the matter was indeed as Zhou Niannian expected. Guan Ping brought several old experts to the Zezhou Court. After two days of discussion, he asked Zhou Niannian to go to the hearing again. Finally, the Zezhou Court made a verdict : Zhang Peilan was released without charge.

Zhou Niannian went to the Bureau of Investigation with the court's verdict.

She personally picked up Zhang Peilan and handed her the verdict, "At least I have lived up to your entrustment."

Zhang Peilan took the power of attorney, looked at it again and again, then hugged her chest and cried loudly.

Zhou Niannian didn't stop or comfort her, she knew that Zhang Peilan escaped death and had too many emotions to vent.

She needs a good cry.

Zhou Niannian sat quietly beside her, and when Zhang Peilan had almost recovered, she asked her calmly, "What are your plans for the future?"

Zhang Peilan wiped away her tears, stood up straight, and bowed deeply to Zhou Niannian.

"I know it's a little thin to say thank you, but I still want to say, thank you, Nian Nian, can I call you that?"

She looked at Zhou Niannian anxiously.

Zhou Niannian shrugged, "You've already screamed, can I make you take it back?"

Zhang Peilan breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled unnaturally, "Thank you very much, I thought I was going to be doomed this time, and I thought I might be imprisoned for the rest of my life. I was scared to death, and I was afraid that Xiaoxin would have no one to take care of her."

She looked at Zhou Niannian gratefully, "If you hadn't accepted my commission, I really...you saved our mother and daughter."

Zhou Niannian hooked her lips, "If it were someone else, I would do the same. This is my duty, so you don't have to take it too seriously."

Zhang Peilan shook her head and said seriously: "Even if it's a duty, not everyone will do it. I will remember your kindness."

Zhou Niannian didn't say much, "What are your plans for the future?"

Zhang Peilan bit her lip, "I want to take Xiaoxin out of Zezhou and live in another place. I don't want Xiaoxin to leave a shadow on this place, and I'm afraid here."

She didn't finish, but Zhou Niannian understood that what she wanted to say was that even though she was acquitted and released, in the eyes of the world, Zhang Dong's death still had something to do with her.

What's more, with Zhang Lixian's family here, Zhang Lixian and his wife would run to her to make trouble from time to time, and her life would be really difficult.

So leaving is undoubtedly the wisest choice.

Zhou Niannian nodded in agreement, "It's okay to change the place, and start all over again."

Zhang Peilan took a deep breath, nodded heavily, "Well, everything starts again."

She didn't go to see Zhang Peilan off, but later she heard from Meng Sanqiu that Zhang Peilan had returned to Mengjiang Village, kowtowed several times to Meng Sanqiu and his wife, and left that night with Xiaoxin.

No one knew where she had gone. It was not until a long time later that she received letters from Zhang Peilan that she became a worker in the provincial capital and found a man to remarry. The man treated her and Xiaoxin differently. very good.

Zhang Peilan's case was settled, and Wu Xuan followed Yang Jiarui back to Kyoto with a smile on the materials she had collected. Afterwards, Guan Ping and his group also returned to Kyoto.

In this battle, the legal counsel of Zezhou fought very well, and it also refreshed the common people's understanding of the law.

With Guan Ping's arrival, everyone in the firm knew about the relationship between Zhou Niannian and Guan Ping, and more trainee lawyers came to study with Zhou Niannian.

Gao Zhiyong was even more polite to her, and often came to discuss everything with her, which made Zhou Niannian dumbfounded.

"Director Gao, you are the director, so you don't need to ask me everything." She said helplessly to Gao Zhiyong.

Gao Zhiyong chuckled and scratched his head, "I always feel that you are Guan Lao's apprentice, and you have returned more things than me. I will ask you to feel at ease."

Zhou Niannian was speechless, but she still answered every question of the trainee lawyers who came to her for advice, trying her best to share her knowledge and experience with them.

For a while, the learning atmosphere in Zezhou Legal Counsel was very strong.

On this day, Li Yuanjia came to her suddenly, and when he saw her, he said in a hurry: "Comrade Xiao Zhou, you must help us this time."

Zhou Niannian asked puzzledly: "What happened? Don't worry, speak slowly."

Li Yuanjia stomped his feet, "I'm so anxious that my mouth is on fire. How can I not be in a hurry? This is a major issue related to our Rainbow Factory."

Zhou Niannian became even more confused, "Did something happen in the factory?"
