How much love has become a cloud of smoke

Chapter 2 Special Assistant 360° Rescue (1)
Vol.1
"It's justice."

The thick and magnetic male voice echoed in the courtroom.The lawyer in front of the hall was dressed in a black lawyer's robe, and there was a knife-like sharp light hidden under his high-spirited eyebrows.

He is still so young, but he is already the focus of everyone's attention in the entire court.This was the first time I saw Chen Jiayan appearing in court, wearing a meticulous black lawyer robe, as cold and determined as a god of death. "My client, Mr. Gao Tianming, was indeed responsible for this traffic accident. He did not stop the driver's reckless behavior in time, nor did he dissuade his friend from drinking and driving. He was indeed at fault. But , he also called for help in time when he was seriously injured, thus saving a young life."

He pointed to the young man in the dock who lowered his head slightly, and everyone looked at the young man in the dock along the bony fingers.

The young defendant lowered his head, his bangs half-hid his face, but he could still see the white tape on his forehead.

Chen Jiayan turned around, supported the railing of the jury seat, and leaned forward slightly: "Next, honorable jurors, please decide the future of this 22-year-old youth, whether to give him a chance to reform? Pay the price for your negligence?" He let go of his hand, stood up straight and said, "But before making a decision, please keep in mind that it is not the power in your hands that judges this young man, but the— -justice."

After finishing the closing statement, enter a short adjournment.When I came back from shopping at the convenience store, the three people in the waiting room were still in the same posture as I left.Gao Tianming walked back and forth restlessly in front of the window, Chen Jiayan was still sitting silently at the table, Mr. Gao was fiddling with the cigar in his hand, because smoking was not allowed in the lounge, he looked a little irritable.

I closed the door carefully, trying not to make a sound, and then quietly put the mineral water on the table one by one.Chen Jiayan closed his eyes.Time passed by every minute and every second, and the whole room was filled with a deadly frozen atmosphere, like a bowl of thick frozen sesame paste.Only Chen Jiayan was as indifferent and quiet as sharp-edged ice cubes in frozen sesame paste.

"Lawyer Chen." Gao Tianming suddenly turned and pushed me away (in fact, I didn't hinder him), looked at the silent Chen Jiayan and said, "How long do they need to discuss? It's been almost an hour."

"The jurors need to combine the circumstances of the two cases to come to a collegiate conclusion, and it does take some time." Chen Jiayan opened his eyes, looked down at the tourbillon watch in his hand, nodded slowly and said, "It's almost the same. "As soon as the words were finished, there was a knock on the door, and the clerk came in and said: "The jury has reached its conclusion, please go to court."

As expected, Gao Tianming was found not guilty and released in court. "As expected of a golden barrister." I heard someone beside me say so. "Hey, what kind of barrister recognizes money but not people."

"Conscience is eaten by dogs."

It was also said.And Gao Tianming's "girlfriend", who was the "perpetrator" of the car accident, was sentenced to three years and six months and executed immediately.In the whole court, only Gao's father and son were relieved.The moment Gao Tianming walked out of the defendant's dock, Mr. Gao held Chen Jiayan's hand tightly and said "thank you" repeatedly.Gao Tianming walked up to the lawyer's seat quickly, and hugged Chen Jiayan vigorously. Only Chen Jiayan's face remained expressionless, showing no emotion.

"Stinky boy, it's not Lawyer Chen, you're dead." Mr. Gao gave his son a slap in the face.Chen Jiayan asked his assistant to pack up the materials, and said to the Gao family father and son: "Although this is the case, the reporter will not be idle these days. Mr. Gao should avoid the limelight."

"I know..." Gao Tianming hadn't finished speaking when a woman rushed over screaming. "Give me back your daughter, you murderer." Gao Tianming was caught off guard by the sudden attack, and his face was scratched by the woman's nails. Before he could dodge, he saw a bottle of something in the woman's hand that he didn't know what it was. After splashing over, the flustered Gao Tianming dragged the person beside him over to act as a shield.And that person, unfortunately, is me.

Before I figured out what was going on, I was dragged in front of Gao Tianming, my high heels tilted, and I almost fell down.The transparent liquid in the bottle spilled on my right shoulder. I was only wearing a thin white shirt, and suddenly I felt cold on my shoulder. I was so panicked that I didn't see a little spray sprayed on Gao Tianming's face. I also didn't see that his face was pale when he was out of his wits.

The crowd on the side became commotion, and the screams in the panic made me feel like I was falling into the abyss. At this moment, someone grabbed my falling body.

"Bailiff!" Chen Jiayan supported me with one hand, while with the other he grabbed the woman's hand holding the bottle. The bottle fell to the ground with a "plop", and the woman was dragged away by the bailiff.

The transparent liquid spilled all over the place, but there was no abnormality. "It's just water." Chen Jiayan said to me, while wiping the water off my shoulders with his hands.Knowing that it was a false alarm, I breathed a sigh of relief, but my legs were still trembling uncontrollably. At any rate, I was saving my life in a hurry, so let me not calm down a little.But at this moment, I felt warmth on my shoulders, and turned around to see Chen Jiayan took off his coat and put it on my shoulders.

His fingers touched my neck, and I couldn't help shivering, so cold, so cold hands.Chen Jiayan turned to the Gao family and his son and said, "Mr. Gao, it's a surprise. You and Mr. Gao had better go through the back door first." He nodded to the assistant, signaling him to take the Gao family and his son out first.Under the restraints of the bailiff, the mad woman still screamed heart-rendingly: "Gao, I will not let you go! You killed my daughter! Give me back my daughter!"

I looked at that crazy woman, she was the mother of the victimized girl lying in the hospital——Ms. Girlfriend" is the perpetrator.

"It's okay." Hearing Chen Jiayan's voice, I recovered from the strong restlessness and shook my head at him dully.

"If you have nothing to do, pack up and go." Chen Jiayan folded up the documents on the table and put them in the briefcase, and I hurriedly followed him out of the courtroom.Folding the lawyer's robe in my hand, I followed Chen Jiayan to the parking lot at a trot.

Chen Jiayan opened the car insurance, threw the briefcase on the back seat, and then looked at me and said, "I still have something to go back to the law firm, you should go back to the company first."

back office?I'm really starting to get very restless again.

Although my position is the assistant to the general manager of D&K Bank, Gao Tianming happens to be that general manager.But every time I meet the general manager recently, my assistant is always very helpless, and my life becomes "precarious".For example, I narrowly escaped a catastrophe a few minutes ago, thanks to Chen Jiayan's blessing, so even if I only consider the issue of life safety, I think it's better for me not to return to the company for the time being.

What's more, I am now being sent to Chen Jiayan's side to continue working as an assistant.Chen Jiayan saw that I was staring at him eagerly, and had no intention of leaving, probably out of some undeserved pity, he sighed and said to me: "Then get in the car." I hurriedly squeezed into his Bentley vice In the driver's seat, he turned on the phone and dialed the assistant's number.

"Have you changed your itinerary for tomorrow?"

"It has been changed. Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang will come to discuss the case of divorce and custody at nine o'clock in the morning. In the afternoon, BMG's regular meeting, Director Zhuang hopes you can attend... and the Legal Department just called, about The gold smuggling case..."

Chen Jiayan raised his cheeks and said, "If you call again, just say I'm not here."

"Okay, besides, Mr. Qiao has looked for you."

"Oh?" Chen Jiayan straightened his face slightly and said, "What's the matter?"

"He didn't say anything, he just said he would contact you again." He was so focused, as if I were air.After knowing this person for three months, my impression of him is that he is completely unpredictable.He is certainly handsome, but being handsome can't be regarded as a meal. What can be regarded as a meal is his extraordinary calmness and wisdom, and his three-inch tongue that can bring the dead back to life.

As for me, I'm just a common man living at the bottom of the society, with average IQ and ability, so it's a coincidence that I can serve as Chen Jiayan's special assistant.If I hadn't been scolded by Mr. Gao in Mr. Gao's office that day and was almost kicked out immediately, I'm afraid I would never have anything to do with Chen Jiayan anyway.

My name is Meng Qiqi, and I had the honor to be a special assistant to Gao Tianming, an administrator of D&K Bank, half a year ago.

Because I made a wrong document and happened to meet Mr. Xiao Gao involved in a traffic accident, I deserved to be scolded by Gao Tianming for 10 minutes, hit on the head by a pile of documents, and beaten by Mr. Xiao Gao with a magazine. The ground hit the face, and finally he was shouted fiercely: "Get out!"

Just when I was knocked down by the last heavy ELLE magazine, a cold hand lifted me up.

That is Chen Jiayan.He was a very strange person. Although he never showed a fierce expression, he had a deafening deterrent force.Being close to him, I unconsciously became cautious about breathing.This person is so perfect, so perfect that it is so harsh that it makes people feel unreal.

"Lawyer Chen." Seeing Chen Jiayan's appearance, the mood of Gao's father and son obviously stabilized a lot. "How is it?" Mr. Gao quickly walked out from behind the long table, his eyes full of eagerness. "The police have decided to file charges." He put down his briefcase.Gao Tianming glared at me, picked up a magazine on the coffee table and threw it at me, saying, "Don't get out." I wondered why there were so many magazines in his office...but I timidly walked towards the door. After taking two steps, before leaving, I still didn't forget to pick up the documents scattered on the ground and take them back for correction.

Hey, no wonder Ai Ai often said that I was born to be a slave. "Mr. Gao." Sitting on the sofa, Chen Jiayan said, "This matter will be troublesome to deal with. I think you need an employee from your bank to assist me..." Before Chen Jiayan could finish speaking, Mr. Gao couldn't wait to say: " Of course, who does Lawyer Chen think is more suitable?"

"It's better for this person to know more about Mr. Xiao Gao's daily life and whereabouts, the circle of friends he has made, etc." Chen Jiayan adjusted his glasses slowly, and his eyes fell on me who was panicked at the door, and then said, "Just her."

I?My hand slipped, and the documents I had just arranged fell to the ground again.Why is it me?I...to put it nicely, I am Gao Tianming's special assistant.And the so-called special assistant is nothing more than a mobile employee sent by Ren Gao Tianming at will. He can ask me to get up in the middle of the night to pay his card bill at any time, accompany his girlfriends to buy clothes, clean his car for him, and even help him. lawyers to help.

Of course, I am the one who knows Gao Tianming's whereabouts best.On the night when the incident happened, Gao Tianming was playing crazy in the PUB with his new girlfriend, a female student from a polytechnic university.This is only known to me, because half an hour before the incident, I was called to go to PUB to pay for him.

Vol.2
After the car drove into the underground parking garage, I followed Chen Jiayan to his office by taking the elevator.Chen Jiayan's law firm is located on the top floor of a high-end office building in the city center, and he always spends his days and nights alone in the office.And I was sitting on the vacant seat in the office area of ​​the law firm, supporting my shaky head and fighting against the bouts of tiredness.Everyone was gone, and even among lawyers who were overwhelmed with work, Chen Jiayan was always the last one to work.

What a workaholic.In the past few months I have been following him, I have hardly seen him have any private time.He has no girlfriend, no friends, no night life, no hobbies, and almost no sleep.From the moment he opened his eyes to the time he came home at night, he was working, working, working, working day and night, just like Gao Tianming, day and night.

It's just that Gao Tianming always makes troubles day and night, while Chen Jiayan works day and night.I didn't know when I fell asleep again until someone pushed me awake. "Then go home and sleep if you're tired."

"No, not very sleepy." I rubbed my eyes and said, "What time is it?"

"03:30." Holding a cup of coffee in his hand, he looked at the watch in his hand.Only then did I see droplets of water on the window glass: "It's raining."

"It's been raining for a while." He took a sip of coffee, looked at the neon lights blurred by the rain, and suddenly seemed to be in a mess of thoughts. "Lawyer Chen...Lawyer Chen." I called him twice before he came back to his senses.He is rarely like this, he is like a taut string, he is very alert at the slightest disturbance, and it is rare for him to answer twice. "Are you okay?" I asked this time.

He just shook his head, and then said: "You go back, I'll do the rest of the finishing work."

I was originally a staff member of D&K Bank, and I received a salary from D&K Bank, and my place of work is also D&K Bank, not Chen Jiayan's law firm.There are a hundred reasons for me to go, but none of them can make me stay.I picked up my backpack and said goodbye to him, then walked to the elevator entrance and took the elevator down to the first floor.

Not down to the first floor, but only one floor down.I sat down at the foot of the fire stairs, feeling worried.It all happened too quickly and ended too quickly.Before I had time to think about what was going on, things were going back to normal, and I was going back to D&K Bank to continue my "slave" career.

I suddenly wanted... really wanted... to stay in the law firm as a slave.Every day is also very busy, the documents to be photocopied are thicker than a dozen Cihai, everyone is on the phone, talking faster than the announcer, and turning over the code thicker than a pillow at every turn, I couldn't understand anything they said, and customers threw coffee at me in a tantrum.

However, since they are also "slaves", I think it is better to stay in the law firm, at least life is guaranteed.

Working with Chen Jiayan, although I was often physically exhausted, my brain was not enough, my whole body was paralyzed, and my life was hanging by a thread, but at least I was not killed by a bunch of fashion magazines, and I was considered "a well-deserved death".I don't know how Chen Jiayan survived. Every time when all the colleagues in the law firm were on the verge of collapse and suffering, he was still like a machine running at high speed, tireless and never stopped.

Maybe it's because his hourly charge is my monthly salary, so he should have earned more money than I can spend in my lifetime by working at such a high speed.

Why does he still work so hard?I really do not understand.

"What are you doing here?" Suddenly someone spoke behind me, and I was so scared that I fell down the steps.

Chen Jiayan stood behind me with his coat on his arm. "Chen, Lawyer Chen..." I hurriedly patted my butt and stood up.He walked without sound, which was really scary. "If you don't go back, what are you doing sitting here?"

"I..." I was thinking of a reason to hide it from him, but it is too difficult to match Chen Jiayan with my IQ. "There are no more minibuses crossing the sea." In the end, I gave up a reason that even I myself didn't think was credible.

I thought that such a clumsy lie would be self-defeating if not attacked, but I didn't expect Chen Jiayan to say: "Then I will send you off."

I froze for a moment, not expecting him to say that.When he came back to his senses, Chen Jiayan had already walked down on his own: "You can't stay in the building forever, and the building will be closed in five minutes."

Immediately I stalked after him.So I got into Chen Jiayan's car again, and his car was very clean.I remember Ai Ai said that if a man's car is clean, there are only two possibilities, one, he is gay; two, he is a pervert.I'm thinking which answer is better to choose to believe?Chen Jiayan suddenly said: "I found that you have been looking at me, do I look good?"

Hmph, this person is really not an ordinary narcissist.
