Chapter 384 – A Play for Two

Zishan looked at the back of Jiang Tao left, want to be angry words but finally is the corner of the lips with a smile, looked at their hands feel above there is still Jiang Tao’s big hand warm aftertaste – there is such a big man guarding their side, really very good.

“Look at the eyes are straight, really like people on the opening it, late let other people snatch you regret also too late.” Sox Jing hugged her neck and laughed: “Obviously interesting why not say, wait for what? Don’t tell me that you’re embarrassed, we sisters are the new women of the new era, the word shyness has long been dropped, right?”

Zixan gave her a blank look, lowered her head and said after a while, “But, you can’t let me say it, right? Maybe there’s hesitation in people’s hearts?” She didn’t know why she had waited for so many days, Jiang Tao would pick her up and drop her off every day, but just wouldn’t open his mouth to say those words to her.

Xue Jing stared up, “You’re waiting for him to say it? That means you’re really interesting – damn Jiang Tao, he’s not embarrassed, is he? Really that way sis beat him all over the head, looks like a big man to the real thing but doesn’t dare to open his mouth.” She said the words waved her fist as if Jiang Tao was in front of her.

These friends of theirs were in a hurry, they didn’t expect to be in a hurry until now when they realized that the reason wasn’t on Zi Shan’s body, instead it was the man who was supposed to speak, who never uttered the words that were supposed to be said.

Damn Jiang Tao, if you don’t have the heart to give me a little far away, have the heart to quickly do it! If you don’t have the heart, get the hell away from me, if you have the heart, get the hell away from me!

The next day was just like Jiang Tao’s premonition, the weather was good, in this hot season, a burst of breeze after a burst of breeze blowing over, let a person comfortable a lot.

In the lobby of a medium-sized hotel in the city, Lin Hao held a press conference belonging to him, officially launching a counterattack in defense of his reputation, he wanted all people to know that he, Jiang Tao, was a greatly good person and an extremely powerful lawyer – as long as he could do a good job in today’s press conference, it was tantamount to letting a lot of big bosses saw his ability.

A lawyer who had fallen to the bottom and would never be able to get up again, to actually regain his good name in such a way – this was ability! Is there anything he can’t do, or anyone he can’t save? I’m sure I’ll get more big cases.

His big cases of course meant cases with big amounts, big commission fees, and his career would be taken to the next level, and then he would have charity for Zi Shan, to see Zi Shan looking up to him.

Lin Hao, who was in a good mood, was wearing a newly bought suit, and his shirt and tie were, of course, new, and matched appropriately – a very formal feel, which, after it hit the papers, would reintroduce people to what a trustworthy lawyer he was. A lawyer, that’s what he was, upstanding and serious, earnest.

Looking at the venue so many reporters his mood better, see Hao Shufen nervous look he almost laugh out, only he knows, Hao Shufen in the end can not get anything, no one can take anything in his hands. Of course, Jiang Tao was also included.

He walked over and looked at Hao Shufen’s eyes, “Don’t be nervous, take a deep breath, as long as you say the words clearly when the time comes, really can’t say the words to cry and say ‘I’m sorry’, the rest will be left to me to deal with.”

Hao Shufen originally thought it was a very simple thing, but when she saw those reporters’ cameras, she realized that this thing was not easy at all, and her legs were a bit weak now, and her heart was about to jump out of her chest, but at the same time, she still had the excitement – it was as if she had returned to her former small stage, and she was the only thing that was in the eyes of the people on the stage.

She was so overwhelmed because she’d never had so much attention from so many people before, and she knew she’d get even more after today when she was in the paper.

There were other people in the noisy venue besides the reporters, some of them were friends of the reporters who came over to see what all the fuss was about, and quite a few of them just didn’t know what they were coming from, and stood not far away to watch – Lin Hao didn’t have any gates set up in order to make it possible for more people to report on the event, much less any kind of pass or anything like that, which made it easy for quite a few people to come over and participate in his launch party.

Zi Shan and Jiang Tao were standing in the crowd behind the reporters, looking at Lin Hao and Hao Shufen seated on the podium. Before arriving here, Zi Shan didn’t know that it was Lin Hao’s launch party, and now that she knew, she glanced at Lin Hao, “You’re here to make trouble, aren’t you?”

Jiang Tao smiled, “You don’t want to? If you don’t want to, I can take you away, well, we can go see a movie and have lunch and coffee or something. You don’t have to work today, right?” He glanced back at Zixan as he spoke, “Your time is being given to me by so-and-so and the others.”

But he said the word “you” so strongly and the word “time” so softly that if Zi Shan hadn’t been listening so carefully she wouldn’t have heard the word “time” at all, and even then his words sounded like “You’ve been given to me by Xuzheng and the others…”. The man’s words sounded like “You’ve been given to me by XJ and the others”.

Zi Shan look around so many people, then a slight smile outstretched his hand as if to hold Jiang Tao’s arm, two fingers but pinched Jiang Tao’s inner arm meat, twisted hard: “I think the play here is better to see – what do you want to do?”

Jiang Tao’s mouth went askew, “Zi Shan, you’re too ruthless, aren’t you?” He looked at Zi Shan pitifully, as if waiting for Zi Shan to apologize.

Zi Shan gave him a blank look, “Do you say it or not?”

Jiang Tao immediately got serious and patted his bag, “Guess what’s in here?” After saying that, he glanced at Zi Shan again, and when he realized that she was going to retract her hand, he quickly reached over with his other hand and grabbed Zi Shan’s hand, “I’m in pain, and you’re still trying to run? You have to give some benefits, right?”

Zi Shan was a little surprised, because Jiang Tao’s guts seem to have gotten bigger, but she didn’t resent holding Jiang Tao’s arm, so she let Jiang Tao go with a small struggle – her hand had been placed in the crook of Jiang Tao’s arm, even when Jiang Tao let go of her hand, she she didn’t remember to pull her hand back.

Jiang Tao looked at her eyes more and more tender, the gaze is going to turn into water flow out to wrap Zi Shan – the purpose of coming here today seems to have been unimportant, the important thing is that Zi Shan in his side still holding his arm.

If there is any hesitation now, he should beat himself up, not to bother Xue Jing’s hands – Xue Jing told him that he really did not believe it, because Zi Shan had taught him a hard lesson that day – he was not unaware that Zi Shan had a good feeling and affection for him. He didn’t know that Zi Shan had feelings for him, but he thought that Zi Shan wasn’t ready and needed time.

Now, he knew that Zi Shan was ready, well, even if things were done here, he thought that there would be enough time to go to a movie and then go to dinner, and then have coffee or something – it didn’t matter what to do, what mattered was that Zi Shan would be by his side and do it with him.

Happiness surrounded Jiang Tao like this, and he felt even more that today was a really good day.

The press conference began, and Lin Hao first sorrowfully gave a brief account of the media reports from the other day, then said with red eyes, “But, that was all a misunderstanding. How could I, Lin Hao, as a lawyer, do something like that? As I said I’m a lawyer, I can only remain silent when I have no evidence. But now that I have evidence, I want everyone to hear and see it.”

As he said this, he pointed at Hao Shufen and introduced, “This is Ms. Li Rongqi’s mother, and as Li Rongqi has always lived with her mother, I believe her words can clear up everyone’s confusion.”

After saying that Lin Hao gave Hao Shufen a soothing look, signaling her not to panic, it was her turn to speak now, Hao Shufen nodded, but she was really nervous because this was not her stage.

“Hello everyone, I’m Li Rongqi’s mother, I’m here today to clarify some things,” she stammered and started to speak, but the more she spoke, the more nervous she got, and she simply forgot what she was supposed to say afterward, suddenly she remembered Lin Hao’s instructions, so she covered her eyes with a handkerchief and cried, “It’s me! I’m sorry, Counselor Lin.”

Lin Hao immediately comforted her, “It doesn’t matter, that kind of thing is not what you want, nor is it what Ms. Li Rongqi wants, it’s just a misunderstanding, as long as it’s explained clearly, you know I’ve never really blamed you or Ms. Li Rongqi – at that time it was angry, but Ms. Li Rongqi is a patient, I can understand.”

He acted like a gentleman, a very upright gentleman with a big heart, and under his comfort Hao Shufen opened her mouth again, and this time she didn’t stutter anymore, and started to explain that Ms. Li Rongqi’s baby wasn’t Lin Hao’s while shedding tears.

Zi Shan looked at Lin Hao and Hao Shufen: “Only two people can put on such a big show, I have to admire Lin Hao. Shall we make an appearance now, or wait a little longer?”

Jiang Tao bowed his head, “I think you like to wait a little longer, don’t you?” After exchanging a smile with Zi Shan, the two didn’t move their feet, right now, it wasn’t the best time.

Hao Shufen’s words, coupled with Li Rongqi’s testimony, and the doctor’s certificate for Li Rongqi, caused many reporters to be surprised – some of them were the ones who were there in the first place, and they were especially surprised because Lin Hao’s matter was really more twisted and peaky than a play.

At this moment, Zi Shan and Jiang Tao saw many people take out their cell phones and start talking about the conference, none of them thought that Lin Hao had turned over successfully, as for whether Lin Hao was the father of Li Rongqi’s child no one cared, they only cared that Lin Hao found a way to get back on his feet.

Jiang Tao smiled: ”See, these are some of the subordinates of the big bosses that Lin Hao invited, here, next should come the best part, I think those big bosses should have quite a few tricky cases, and the number of commission fees must be staggering – Lin Hao obviously approached some of them, and now that he’s cleared his name, someone will hire him on the spot next, and the effect of the news will be maximized, and he’ll be able to get even more benefits.”

“Lin Hao, always a talent, he’s really smart.”
