A dog is more comfortable than a man

"Sir, are you looking for Solicitor Suu?" Not long after arriving at work, Su Qiao An's assistant, Chen Wei, saw a man hesitating at the front desk after entering the law firm.

She knew this man and had come to Solicitor Suu before.

Chen Wei went forward and politely asked. Zhu Jiangci was stunned for a moment, and seeing that there was an unfamiliar woman in front of him, he faintly acknowledged her.

Chen Wei did not care about her cold attitude, and smiled, "Sir, I am sorry, but Solicitor Suu is not feeling well and will not be coming to the Discipline Hall for the next few days. If you have anything important to tell me, I can pass it on to her on your behalf." 

Not feeling well?

The first thing that Zhu Jiangci thought of was what he did to Su Qiao An last night, and a wave of undisputable depression slowly condensed in his heart.

The waves in his heart surged, but he did not show it on his face.

He opened his mouth coldly, "Where is your Solicitor Suu's address?"

"Sorry, this is Solicitor Suu's private information. Without her permission, I have no right to tell you." Chen Wei was polite, but distant.

Zhu Jiangci did not get angry, instead, he smiled and said, "She sure has a good dog."

If someone else were to be scolded in such a way, they would have already scolded them. But Chen Wei was different, she had followed Su Qiao An for so many years, and had never learned anything.

Chen Wei smiled, "As long as you are a good dog that knows how to watch the door, you will be more at ease than a human being to be a good master. Besides, dogs are always loyal, they know how to differentiate who is a human and a bastard."

"..." Zhu Jiangci slightly narrowed his eyes, as his expression turned cold.

Very good! The dog that Su Qiao An had raised was of the same nature as her, and it had extremely strong teeth and mouth!

After angering Zhu Jiangci, the smile on Chen Wei's face disappeared, he looked at the dumbstruck reception and instructed without any emotion, "Get someone to clean up the area in front of the door carefully, don't be unlucky!"

"Yes, Sister Chen Wei." The front desk replied bitterly.

Ever since Su Qiao An moved out, they hardly ever saw each other, he was too lazy to even bother with Su Qiao An, much less ask for her address.

When he went back to the car with a dark expression and a handsome face, he immediately ordered his men to look up Qiao An's address.

After obtaining the exact location, he then drove away.

Zhu Jiangci thought about it, all the memories he had about Su Qiao An were blurry. He could vaguely remember that Su Qiao An and him graduated from the same university, and he was a junior who was two years younger than him.

Zhu Jiangci had no impression of her in the past, if not for Jiang Kerou, he would not even have paid attention to such a person.

As he sat in the car, Zhu Jiangci was stunned for a long time when he saw the woman who wore white T's and jeans, canvas shoes, and loose hair with a ponytail, wearing stiff black-framed glasses, struggle to lift the two big shopping bags.

The sunlight fell on her beautiful skin, suffusing it with a faint luster.

He probably had never seen Su Qiao An dressed in such casual and free manner before. Normally, she would package himself as an old lady who was forty to fifty years old, with his smooth and black hair that was combed all the way back, to the point where it made people lose their appetite.

If not for the last family banquet when he forcefully brought Su Qiao An to pose, he probably would have never known that she could actually dazzle people.

Earlier, he was still burning with anger, but after walking for a while, the nameless fire in his heart was mysteriously extinguished.

Zhu Jiangci hesitated for a while, seeing that she was trying to open the door with much difficulty, he finally got off the car.

The shopping bag in Su Qiao An's hand was taken away by someone, causing her to be startled for two seconds. When she saw Zhu Jiangci standing there, the blank look in her eyes disappeared, and she looked at him indifferently.

The door was open. He asked, "How do you know my address?"

My home? This term really didn't sound good, and it separated the two too clearly. It was clear and distinct, and because of these words, Zhu Jiangci's eyebrows slightly knitted together in displeasure.

"I want to know that a person's residence is not a difficult matter." Zhu Jiangci's voice was warm.

Su Qiao An thought about it, what Zhu Jiangci wanted to do, no one could stop him.

Clearly, she had just asked a foolish question.

"Open the door!" Zhu Jiangci commanded the moment he opened his mouth.

Su Yun sized him up, then took the shopping bag from his hand and turned to leave.

She placed the things inside the guard room. When she came out, she saw that Zhu Jiangci was still outside, and understood what was going on.

This young master had always come to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason at all. Today, he had spent a lot of time and effort to find her, probably because he had something to discuss with her.

Coincidentally, she had something she needed to clarify with Zhu Jiangci.

The first person to speak was Su Qiao An. She didn't care about Zhu Jiangci's reaction, and immediately left after he finished speaking. Zhu Jiangci, who was left behind, looked at his figure that was walking further and further away, the expression in his eyes becoming deeper.

It was obvious that Su Yun did not wish for him to enter her place even when she was at the door.

This inexplicably made Zhu Jiangci very unhappy!

Su Yun brought her to the river bank that was not far from the residential area. With a gentle breeze, she lifted the hair that was hanging by her cheeks. In the afterglow, the simple and fresh Su Qiao An looked more like a college student that had just graduated.

Zhu Jiangci's fingers slightly bent, his hands feeling a bit itchy, wanting to tuck that unruly strand of hair behind his small ears.

He seemed to be in a daze for a moment, his eyes were dark, and his vision was unfocused. It was as if he was looking at Su Qiao An, but also focused and thinking.

"Did you come to find me for something?" Her throat was uncomfortable, her pronunciation difficult, her voice coarse and husky.

Last night, Zhu Jiangci's hands were very heavy, his throat was injured to a certain extent, and she was still recovering from his injuries so he didn't go to the law school.

The first was that the bruises on her neck were more horrifying, and the second was that it was very difficult for her to speak, so she couldn't leave the court.

Zhu Jiangci could hear the change in her voice, and he also saw the scars he had left behind after his tyrannical actions. For a moment, his heart had suddenly tightened, and he was a little unable to speak.

That inexplicable feeling came violently, and since he couldn't control it, he could only suppress it with all his might.

Normally, he felt like he had to say something, but today, he found it hard to open his mouth. Especially after seeing the mark on her neck, he was even more unable to open his mouth, as if a giant invisible hand had grabbed his neck and made him unable to make a sound.

She took a glance at Zhu Jiangci, but did not discover that he was acting strangely. Her eyes were warm and calm like still water, "Since you do not intend to tell me, then I will say it first."

She swallowed hard, suppressing the discomfort in her throat as she continued, "I agree to give you 10% of the shares in my hands. I've already made the share transfer agreement, if you think there's no problem, then we're done for."

What he owed her, she did not want, she paid for both the silver and the silver, and gave it to him in exchange for what he owed her.

When she came, she would be clean, and when she left, she would also want a light breeze.
