Chapter 374: Thirsty

, CEO Zhu made such a big fuss just to help his girlfriend Lin Zhi’s best friend get justiceThat's too much favoritism; That's too unprincipled;That's too indulgent!"Is he serious this time" Wang Yan...He walked up to the bar and looked at the water in her hand.

"Get me a glass too" 。He had had a little wine, his home was quite hot, and he was also thirsty. 。"Pour yourself..." 。Shū Tínglan wouldn't pour him a drink, and instead took another sip herself. 。The water had just entered his mouth, before he could swallow it, he smiled gently and pulled her closer:

"Drink yours" 。"

The speed was so fast that the water in her mouth instantly disappeared. She widened her eyes:

‘Are you disgusting’

He just laughed, supported her waist with both hands and exerted a little force to lift her onto the barstool. He looked down at her,

‘Disgusting together!’

He picked up the water glass next to him, took a sip, then leaned down and poured it all into her mouth.

" 。Shu Tinglan was so furious she could barely stand it. She had to open her mouth, or else the water would drip all over her clothes. Was this man insane 。"Drunk" She could faintly smell a hint of alcohol on him. 。"Not drunk, just had a few sips" 。He still kept his head bowed, rubbing his forehead against hers, their noses touching, answering her lazily. 。"Not drunk and still so crazy, go take a shower and go to sleep." 。She wanted to get off the bar, but unfortunately, her legs were held by him, unable to move at all. 。When everyone is drunk, they are all drunk by themselves. 。“From the moment I saw her when I got home, I was wide awake. My mind was filled with all those things.” 。He admitted that he had been a bit too carried away lately, maybe it was like newlyweds after a short separation, oh no, it was more like they were reunited after a long time apart. Whenever he was with her, all he could think about was her. 。Shu Tinglan was wearing a nightgown and sitting like that, many of her movements were uniquely convenient. 。Shutinglan was indeed a bit conservative, wanting nothing more than to kick him away with one foot, otherwise she wouldn't be able to look at this bar counter ever again. However, she was held down by his hands gripping her ankles, unable to move. All she could see was the top of his head after he crouched down. 。"You clean the bar!"

"Yeah" 。"

Swap the bar tomorrow" 。""Good"

Whatever she says. 。The next morning, Zhu Yu'an pretended to be a good father again and went back to the master bedroom to sleep with his children. He waited until they woke up and pretended to have spent the whole night with them. 。As expected, the two children woke up and saw their father beside them. They jumped up excitedly and clung to him. They missed their father so much because they hadn't heard his bedtime stories last night. 。"Gee, Dad, are you hurt here" Shu Xiaohe noticed that her father's Adam's apple was red and asked with concern. 。"No injuries, just mosquito bites" 。"Oh, my mom had one on her neck before too. She said it was from a dog bite." 。"Zhu Yu'an chuckled, thinking that next time he really had to restrain himself and not leave any marks on his body again." 。Shutinglan got up half an hour later than usual. When she arrived at the restaurant, she deliberately avoided the bar. Although it was cleaned up spotless, she still couldn't bear to look at it. Just one glance made her blush, it had contaminated her eyes to such a degree. 。Zuo Yu'an kept a straight face and said seriously: "The tablecloth at the bar was thrown away last night and replaced with a new one." 。Shutinglan felt much better now. 。

In the last week before the New Year, lawyers at the firm who had already met their annual performance targets were starting to relax and look forward to the holiday break. Those who hadn't reached their goals, however, were stressed and working hard, hoping to make a final push before the end of the year. >>>。As a new lawyer, Shu Tinglan naturally didn't dare to relax. She continued to develop new clients while handling some cases for existing ones. 。Most of her old clients in the city have already been handed over to the new lawyers hired by Lawyer Sun. Only a few clubs and Extreme Challenge Halls belonging to Yi Muyang are still in her hands. 。This is the only connection between her and Yi Muyang. 。。This must be Yi Muyang's idea, to cut off their only connection. 。"Is Yimu Yang at the club" she asked the manager. 。"Yi Ge led the team to a training camp out of town and will be back after the new year." 。"Yi Muyang's whereabouts are a mystery, and the person in charge also said truthfully >>>" 。Shutinglan originally wanted to take advantage of the New Year holiday to go back to the city, see Mr. and Mrs. Sun, and check on Yi Muyang's situation, but since he wasn't there, she had no choice but to give up the idea. 。Today at work, Li Anna seemed to be in a very good mood. A few of her lawyers asked:

"Did lawyer Lan really take you to Zhuo Yuan Technology's annual meeting"

"Yes, the harvest was plentiful" 。Li Anna was very pleased with herself and went to attend Zhuo Yuan's annual meeting. She met Wang, the general agent of Zhuo Yuan, and they finalized the contract. Starting next year, she would be responsible for the legal advisory work of the general agency company. 。I also added the WeChat of the "Prince" from Listening Whale Finance. Let's talk about cooperation again next year. Her career can be said to be a smooth rise to success. 。Oh, by the way, I also had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Zhuo, CEO of Zhuoyuan Technology's speech, which was truly captivating and mesmerizing. 。Several lawyers expressed envious sentiments, saying: "When will we be able to keep up with Lawyer Li's pace" 。"

Everyone assumed she was going to become a business partner." 。Xiao Xin, who was nearby, was getting more and more anxious. She kept glancing at Lawyer Shu, who remained calm. 。Xiaoxin didn't know that Lawyer Shu and Director Zhu lived together. She only thought that their current relationship was that of a former husband and wife. Considering they had previously fought over custody and even went to court, she assumed they were now just co-parents. Because of Lawyer Shu's personality, she wouldn't feel comfortable asking Director Zhu directly. 。Neither Lawyer Shu nor Xiao Xin brought up the relationship between her and Mr. Zhuo, as Xiao Xin was unaware of the details. 。As for Shu Tinglan, she actually doesn't know what her relationship with Zhu Yu'an is. First of all, they are definitely not husband and wife. They are already divorced, and Shu Tinglan has no desire to remarry. Getting married and then getting divorced is too hurtful. 。Secondly, they weren't in a romantic relationship. From beginning to end, it seemed like they never actually defined what their relationship was. 。So, it's more like an ex-husband and ex-wife living under the same roof and co-parenting their children. 。If you absolutely have to introduce yourselves to the world, the best way would be: she is the mother of the child and he is the father of the child. 。Shutinglan thought this was the best way right now. 。Children can enjoy a normal family atmosphere and live with their loving parents. 。And she can also rest assured to pursue her career and make up for the lost time and opportunities. 。On the other hand, the relationship with Zhu Yu'an feels free and effortless because there are no specific labels or expectations. It's a simple and pure connection without any anxieties about gain or loss, which is truly wonderful. 。Zuo Yu'an understood her perfectly, so he never pressured her to define their relationship. Every time they were most intimate, he would whisper countless "I love yous" in her ear, and she would only say she loved him back when he paused intentionally, as if seeking for him to continue. But often, after they finished, she would flip the script, refusing to acknowledge that she had just said those words, like a cunning, manipulative woman who never initiates but always denies it afterwards. 。He was terrible, but he couldn't do anything about it. 。board, staring at it for a long time. All the emotions she had been suppressing lately suddenly broke free, and she cried uncontrollably inside the car, almost choking on her sobs. 。The last feeling I...
