Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Such good fortune exists?

Xie Xiao felt that even a second's hesitation would be disrespectful to the allure of the young Lawyer Luo.

He hugged her and kissed her.

Luo Yanran's eyes brimmed with laughter, then she closed them.

Right outside the door were Xie Xiao's parents; of course, they couldn't do anything except kiss.

And to be honest, they really weren't in the mood to do anything else.

Xie Xiao had thought he would fall into bed and sleep immediately today, but surprisingly he suffered from insomnia.

He sighed softly and glanced at Luo Yanran, who had already fallen asleep beside him.

Eventually, he closed his eyes slowly, thinking that maybe it was really time to talk to a psychologist.

Otherwise, this feeling of holding onto something in his heart was truly awful.

Early the next morning, they had to catch a plane, but since it was Monday, Teacher Xie, who was now teaching senior high school students, really couldn't take them.

Dr. Yang was even less hopeful; the now department head Dr. Yang was extremely busy.

Fortunately, both of them were not fussy people. They got up early, packed up, and went straight to the airport by taxi.

The family left the house together.

When they arrived in City B, it was just after eleven o'clock. Xie Xiao's car was still in the underground parking lot of the airport.

They drove straight back.

Luo Yanran was busy replying to messages the entire way, and her complexion wasn't great.

Xie Xiao noticed this and asked during a red light, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing, it's about that wage claim case; it seems that the unscrupulous boss intimidated the workers who were owed wages, and now many of them have recanted...."

To persuade this group, Luo Yanran and Kang Hui had spent quite a bit of time doing ideological work.

So now Kang Hui was about to go insane with busyness.

One by one, those people didn't even dare to answer his calls.

It was Zhou Mianmian who informed Kang Hui about the intimidation, being one of the unpaid workers herself, she also faced threats.

Even the disabled couple who first sought their help said they didn't want the money anymore.

With kids at home, they decided to give up after being threatened.

Nothing is more important than family.

Luo Yanran felt somewhat powerless, "What is all this even about?"

She had always thought being a lawyer meant upholding justice, but she learned that the journey wasn't easy.

And the outcome might not always be what you desire.

For a moment, Luo Yanran couldn't help feeling fatigued.

Xie Xiao reached out to squeeze her hand, "Tired?"

"It's hard to describe the feeling, maybe a sense of powerlessness, but I can understand them, they are just ordinary people trying to live their lives earnestly."

Luo Yanran glanced at the traffic jam outside.

City B always seemed to be so busy. Traffic congestion could happen at any time.

Many people come to this city without looking back, just to fight for a better future.

To live well.

There's really nothing wrong with that.

But her feeling is the same as Kang Hui's now; they want to help them get the remuneration they deserve.

But they also know all this is predicated on their willingness and on their ability to live well.

The people now being threatened say their lives have all been affected, and it's very likely they would lose new jobs as well, so they're scared.

"So, they want to give up?" Xie Xiao said as he started the car, slowly following the car ahead.

Luo Yanran hummed in response, "My senior said that we can't keep spending time on one case, especially now that they are unwilling to cooperate. There's no need to repeat the previous process. With this time, we could be helping more people who are willing to accept help..."

It was regrettable, but that was the reality.

Xie Xiao noticed her disappointment and couldn't help saying, "Maybe I could find someone..."

"No need, Xie Xiao, we can help temporarily, but we can't help forever, so let's not disturb their normal lives," Luo Yanran's voice was soft, "Actually, my grandfather told me when I was a child that the world isn't just black and white. I didn't understand it before. I didn't understand even before I became a lawyer. I thought, hey, as a lawyer, with the law, isn't it just about judging right from wrong?"

But it turned out not to be that simple.

Xie Xiao glanced at her in the rearview mirror, worried her mood might be bad, but he saw a gleam in her eyes, "But now that I know, I feel very conflicted, but even more motivated."

Because Grandfather had one more thing to say, "Those grey areas need us, they need us to categorize them. That is what the law is, that is the purpose of a lawyer's existence. The law is perfecting itself, and we are progressing."

Our little Luoluo is growing up.

Grandfather's kind smile just appeared in Luo Yanran's mind.

She thought, she finally resonated with her grandfather.

It was a really good feeling.

Xie Xiao looked at her like this, and suddenly felt a stir in his heart, his Ranran was growing.

Step by step, she was walking on the path she had chosen for herself.

She had always been dazzling, even now as a small lawyer, even the kind that wasn't yet regularized, but Xie Xiao just believed that she would become very dazzling.

Dazzling to the point that maybe one day he could only look up to see her.

But the feeling wasn't bad, he had been chased by her gaze for so many years.

It was about time he worked hard to chase after her.

Chasing the light is an instinct in humans.

For Xie Xiao, chasing the light named Ranran was also instinctive.

He is an ordinary man; he can't escape the ordinary.

In the end, Xie Xiao didn't say anything more. He and Luo Yanran had always been like this, not influencing or intervening with each other's decisions.

When the two got home, they were too lazy to go out to eat and ended up just having takeout.

After eating, they both went to change clothes.

Afterward, Xie Xiao drove Luo Yanran to the law firm, and thinking about the unscrupulous boss who had threatened the employees, he still felt somewhat uneasy and said, "Call me if there's anything, call the moment something feels wrong."

Luo Yanran looked at him, "Afraid that the boss will come to threaten us? It should not come to that..."

Although she said that, she still nodded seriously, "I'll be careful."

She quickly kissed Xie Xiao on the face and then turned to go upstairs.

Xie Xiao drove straight back to the Luo family's company, as there was a meeting for the project team in the afternoon.

He arrived at the underground parking garage at precisely 1:45 p.m., and since work started at 2 p.m., he was just in time to clock in.

But Xie Xiao didn't expect to run into Yang Yuan as soon as he got out of the car.

Yang Yuan had come down immediately after hearing from the surveillance department that Xie Xiao had returned.

After being rejected by Xie Xiao last Friday, Yang Yuan didn't think too much about it, figuring he could always get him out over the weekend.

Unexpectedly, when he tried to call him on Saturday morning, the phone was unreachable, and in the afternoon he did get through only to hear, "Sorry Yang Ge, I've already gone back to my hometown..."

As a result, an entire weekend was wasted just like that!

The meeting that afternoon was to decide on the project lead.

So, Yang Yuan couldn't take any risks.
