Chapter 172 - For the first time, she felt that she was a complete idiot

Author: Liaowumian MACHINE TRANSLATION

At that time, after Song Beibei left the law firm, she returned to the company.

Andy just happened to come out of the president’s office.

Song Beibei walked over, and Andy actually had an awkward expression on his face.

Song Beibei walked over. She originally wanted to go in, but Andy said, “don’t go in for the time being. Miss Gu and boss are arguing inside. ”

Song Beibei finally knew why Andy felt awkward.

It turned out that Gu Wanjing had come.

Song Beibei couldn’t help but open the door and go in.

Andy didn’t stop her.

She didn’t see anyone when she went in.

But she heard Gu Wanjing’s voice.

Song Beibei realized that the two of them were standing on the balcony.

“third brother, no matter how bad I, Gu Wanjing, am, I wouldn’t go to the extent of asking third brother to arrange a blind date. So what are you trying to do now? You’re in a hurry to sell me out. Third Brother, was it your idea to arrange a blind date for me, or was it your precious wife? ”

Gu Yanqing replied indifferently, “it has nothing to do with Bei Bei. ”

Gu Wanjing smiled, “is that so? ”

Gu Yanqing’s voice seemed to have a hint of depth, “Wanjing, I’m already married. I Love Bei Bei. Do you understand? ”

This was the first time Gu Wanjing heard the word ‘love’ from Gu Yanqing’s mouth.

It was also the first time Gu Yanqing said so bluntly that he loved Song Beibei.

And at that moment, it was as if a knife had cut her in half. It was as if a heart had been dug out and placed in a pot of oil to be boiled.

Gu Wanjing had never felt so hopeless before. Her previous conviction and determination seemed to have collapsed at that moment.

She could not believe that Gu Yanqing would suddenly say the word ‘love’ .

How did he fall in love with that little princess.

She had thought about it carefully. Other than her background, what else was so outstanding about that little princess?

She was only nineteen years old. She was impulsive, childish, and willful. She often did brainless things to let Gu Yanqing clean up the mess.

Ever since she was young, she had always been against Gu Yanqing. At one point, when Gu Yanqing mentioned her in front of her, he would sigh helplessly and even become irritated.

Gu Wanjing thought to herself, although Gu Yanqing did not hate that little princess, at least he did not like her.

But now, Gu Yanqing had clearly said that he loved her.

To Gu Wanjing, it was simply a fantasy.

How could it be?

How could it be?

And at that time, Song Beibei, who was standing behind the wall, just happened to hear this sentence.

Gu Yanqing rarely expressed his love.

Usually, in front of her, he rarely spoke sweet words.

But now, Song Beibei seemed to have heard the sweetest words of love in the world.

He had said it so clearly.

He probably wanted to completely end Gu Wanjing’s longing for him.

Song Beibei was very touched in her heart.

Gu Yanqing really cared about her, that was why he said such words to Gu Wanjing.

On the other side, after Gu Wanjing was shocked, the light in her eyes completely dimmed.

She was different from those delicate and pitiful women

She was Gu Wanjing. What she wanted, she did not need to beg to get it

She even laughed, “third brother, am I in your way, or is your little wife jealous because of me, so you can’t wait to sell me out “So, our decades of relationship couldn’t compare to miss song throwing a Tantrum, and you can’t wait to dump me. Is that so? ”

Gu Yanqing sighed. “Wanjing, I told you, this has nothing to do with Bei Bei. Wei Yuan is a good person. I just hope that you can open up your closed heart door. I don’t mean to make do with the two of you. What I mean is that you should try to change your life. At your age, it’s a pity to spend all your time on work. WANJING, it’s time for you to fall in love. ”

Gu Wanjing said, “whether I fall in love or not is my freedom. Whoever I like is also my freedom. Gu Yanqing, I have never depended on you to live my life. Please take good care of your little wife and don’t let her find any more random people for me. I, Gu Wanjing, am not like her. I wasn’t born with a life of gold and silver. I have to work hard. I have to support a bunch of people in the office. I don’t have the time to deal with the boring games of little girls in the United States. ”

After saying that, Gu Wanjing turned around and left.

When she walked out of the balcony, she happened to see Song Beibei standing by the window, leaning against the wall.

A trace of mockery appeared on the corner of her lips. “I, Gu Wanjing, am engaged to be married. I won’t trouble Miss Song to worry about it. Please don’t bother me in the future. I’m very busy. ”

After saying that, she left.

Song Beibei looked at her back view, still quietly leaning against the wall.

Gu Yanqing walked in. When he saw Song Beibei, he was slightly surprised. “When did you come over? ”

Song Beibei looked at Gu Yanqing. “Did I make things worse? ”

Gu Yanqing reached out to rub her hair, “No. ”

Gu Yanqing said no, but Song Beibei knew that he was comforting her. She must have overreached herself.

Actually, Gu Wanjing was right. Whether she fell in love or not was her freedom. It was her right to like anyone.

She shouldn’t have interfered.

Song Beibei felt that she was being selfish. Actually, Gu Wanjing didn’t do anything ethical. Instead, she judged a gentleman’s heart with the heart of a villain.

Song Beibei said, “I’ll go apologize to sister WANJING. ”

Gu Yanqing said, “no need. You don’t have to care about her matters in the future. ”

Song Beibei still felt a little guilty in her heart. She had always wanted to find an opportunity to apologize to Gu Wanjing.

However, she did not expect that something would happen to Gu Wanjing the next day.

She had actually seen it on her phone. It was the headline of the Social News Section: “A certain lawyer’s office was revealed to have a box of cash hidden. Suspected of corruption and bribery. ”

Although the newspaper did not mention her name, a photo was taken.

The photo was a gold-lettered sign of the Wanjing Law Firm.

Moreover, the article implied that the lawyer who took bribes was Gu Wanjing.

The article said that Gu Wanjing had recently taken on a big corruption case. On the surface, she was not afraid of power, but in the dark, she was just like those people and had collected a lot of money.

In the middle of the article, there was a clear picture. It was a box full of cash.

At that time, Song Beibei was taking a high school math class.

She took her phone and casually flipped through it. This news was already the most popular news in society.

When Song Beibei saw the picture of the cash box, her heart thumped, as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.

The box was the loquat box given by the old lady.

The report also said that someone had borrowed the fruit and hid a large amount of cash under the Loquat. The court and the police had already interfered, and the incident was still under investigation.

Song Beibei felt as if she had fallen into a trap.

The scene of the Old Lady Rushing in and then leaving the box appeared in her mind.

At that time, she felt that something was wrong, but she could not tell what it was.

Now she knew that she had been schemed against.

During the last blind date dinner, Song Beibei only knew a little about it, but she also roughly knew that Gu Wanjing had a corruption case that involved some gang forces.

So, that box should be used to frame Gu Wanjing.

And that box was the one she insisted on leaving behind.

Song Beibei suddenly stood up. Even the teacher who was giving a lecture was shocked.

Song Beibei did not have time to explain and rushed out of the classroom.

She rushed out of the school and took a taxi. However, she did not know where to go.

After hesitating for a while, she said that she was going to the Wanjing law firm.

On the way, she made a call to Gu Yanqing.

Gu Yanqing was in a meeting. It was obvious that he had just found out about this matter. After a moment of silence, he said, “I’ll be there in a while. ”

When Song Beibei arrived at the law firm, it was very chaotic there.

It seemed like a lot of people had arrived.

But Song Beibei did not recognize them.

There was a group of people surrounding the door of Gu Wanjing’s office.

It was the people from the law firm.

Song Beibei squeezed past the group of people and squeezed her way to the door.

She saw the scene inside.

There were people from the police station inside. There seemed to be some reporters who were holding their cameras and taking non-stop pictures.

Meanwhile, Gu Wanjing was standing beside the desk. A man in a suit and tie said, “Wanjing, this matter is a little difficult to handle. I’ll tell you in detail later. ”

At this moment.. Song Beibei rushed in at once. “lawyer Gu Wanjing was wronged. This box of loquats was given to her by an old lady. I was also there at that time. I can testify because I was the one who asked this box of loquats to be kept. But I didn’t expect that someone would frame her. But lawyer Gu Wanjing was really wronged. ”

Song Beibei diverted all of her attention.

Many people looked at her in surprise.

Only Gu Wanjing frowned slightly.

Song Beibei still looked breathless because she had run all the way here.

However, after the shock, those people did not seem to take her seriously.

Those people seemed to be Gu Wanjing’s friends. They exchanged pleasantries with her, patted her on the shoulder, and left.

Before they left, they all glanced at Song Beibei.

Gu Yanqing also entered at this time.

The people outside automatically made a path for him.

She walked in front of Gu Wanjing and asked, “what happened? ”

Gu Wanjing glanced at Song Beibei but did not say anything.

At this time, a young woman suddenly ran in crying. She wished she could kneel in front of Gu Wanjing, “sister Wanjing, I’m sorry. I’ve harmed you. ”

Song Beibei recognized that this woman was the assistant who had hosted her and her mother-in-law back then

There was also a person standing beside Gu Wanjing. It seemed to be her secretary.

Gu Wanjing had yet to speak However, that person berated her sternly, “Lili, you’re usually quite smart. How could you make such a low-level mistake? There are meetings every day in the office. How did you say it? Now is a crucial moment and the second trial is about to begin. Those people are trying to think of ways to deal with sister Wanjing. They can’t even use threats or bribes, so they came to frame her. How many times have I said it? No matter who it is, no matter what gift they give, even a bottle of mineral water can’t be accepted. You actually let such a person in and even let her leave the box in sister Wanjing’s office. Could it be that you’ve been bribed by that side? ”

Lily was already crying her eyes out, “no, it really wasn’t me. At that time, I said I wouldn’t accept it, but… but… ”

Lily looked at Song Beibei hesitantly.

On the other side, Gu Wanjing’s secretary had already said coldly, “but what? Do you still want to hide anything? ”

Lily said, “at that time, Miss Song was also there. It was miss song who said that I didn’t have the right to make a decision for sister Wanjing. She told that mother-in-law to wait in the office and wait for sister Wanjing to come back to decide whether to accept it or not. Because of Miss Song, Miss Song insisted… … So I agreed. Firstly, I thought that sister Wanjing would be back soon. Secondly, I thought that there wouldn’t be any problems. Moreover, I kept an eye on her. But later, Bella arranged some work for me, so I forgot about it.”

Lily’s voice became lower and lower.

Meanwhile, the office became quieter and quieter.

When the secretary heard lily pointing the finger at Song Beibei, she glanced at Gu Yanqing and didn’t dare to say another word.

The quiet atmosphere made Song Beibei feel extremely uncomfortable.

Song Beibei said in the quiet atmosphere, “it’s my fault. Everything she said was right. At that time, I was the one who insisted that the old woman leave behind that box of fruits. I didn’t expect that there would be cash inside. I know that what I say is useless now. I just want to know what can be done to make up for it. Do you need me to testify “I can prove sister Wanjing’s innocence. ”

Gu Wanjing’s secretary said, “the other party came prepared. On that day, the entire building’s electricity was repaired, and there were no video surveillance cameras. Right now, there’s no way to find that old woman. Furthermore, the other party has hired a large number of Internet trolls to bribe the media. At night, they wantonly slander and confuse the public. The three of them became tigers and used the pressure of public opinion. Sister Wanjing’s reputation has already been ruined. Now, even the Lawyers Association is investigating sister Wanjing. On the other hand, the case has also been requested to change lawyers. For this case, sister Wanjing has been running around in the wind and rain. Under pressure, she even received threatening letters. These few months of suffering have been in vain. Moreover, it’s very likely that her career as a lawyer will be ruined just like that… “. “… “…”

Song Beibei said, “I can find that old woman. She said that she lives in Si Li Alley. ”

Gu Wanjing’s secretary said, “there are a total of 108 alleys in Xia city, but this Si Li alley doesn’t exist. ”

Song Beibei knew that the old woman was probably lying.

Then, was that story made up as well?

The secretary continued, “moreover, that old woman’s words are full of loopholes. Our sister Wanjing is a financial lawyer. Why would she take on such a criminal case? Moreover, sister Wanjing has been abroad all this time and has just returned to China. Since someone died, the news reports have never reported on this case. Even if you use your brain a little, you can tell that that old woman is obviously not a good person… “. “… “…”

“enough, stop talking, ” Gu Wanjing finally interrupted, “don’t you have anything to do? Why aren’t you going out to do your work? ”

A group of people complained about Gu Wanjing’s injustice. Instead, they were reprimanded and all of them went out one after another.

The room finally quieted down.

Song Beibei stood at the side with her head lowered, pinching the corner of her shirt.

She did not know what to say.

She knew that she had harmed Gu Wanjing this time.

But she did not know how to make up for it.

She had never encountered such a thing before.

She did not know that an old lady with a kind face would actually come up with such a moving story to frame a lawyer.

These were things that she had never thought of or understood.

Gu Wanjing said, “I will settle this matter myself. The two of you can go back. ”

“How? ” Gu Yanqing finally opened his mouth.

Gu Wanjing said, “this is clearly the people from the bamboo league who harmed me. I have something on them. I can negotiate with them. ”

“They are a gang. You expect them to keep their word. Wanjing, sometimes you are too stubborn. ”

Gu Wanjing remained silent. Song Beibei could tell that she still looked a little angry in front of Gu Yanqing.

Gu Yanqing Ruffled Song Beibei’s hair. “Beibei, wait for me outside first. I have something to discuss with Wanjing. ”

Song Beibei also felt that she was too embarrassed to stay.

Every time she caused trouble, Gu Yanqing would help clean up the mess.

Song Beibei turned around and left Gu Wanjing’s office. She even closed the office door.

Song Beibei planned to wait outside.

When she passed by the cubicle, she happened to hear three or five people talking about something

“Sister Wanjing is in deep trouble this time. Do you think our firm will close soon after it opens? ”

“The key is that sister Wanjing can’t be blamed for being wronged. After all, that person is Mrs. Gu. In the end, this firm opened because of Mr. Gu. Even if Mrs. Gu is happy one day and destroys our firm, we have to endure it. ”

“Do you think this matter has anything to do with Mrs. Gu? Mr. Gu and our sister Wanjing are a perfect match. There has always been rumors of an ambiguous relationship. Could it be that Mrs. Gu specially arranged this? ”

“It can’t be, Mrs. Gu is only nineteen this year, right? ”

“being young doesn’t mean that she’s not scheming… ”

Song Beibei really couldn’t listen to these words, so she grabbed her bag and ran out.

When she passed by those people, they instantly shut up.

But when she walked far away, she still heard a scoff. “other than having a good life, I really can’t compare to sister Wanjing in any way. It’s such a pity for Mr. Gu and sister Wanjing. ”

Song Beibei’s heart was extremely sad. For the first time, she really felt that she was a complete idiot.

It was because of her stupidity that led to today’s situation.

All this while, she had been living under Gu Yanqing’s protection.

Without dreams, without actions, she would only cause trouble for him. She really wasn’t worthy of Gu Yanqing.

Song Beibei sat on the stone steps in front of the building.

When Gu Yanqing came out, she was burying her face in her knees.

Gu Yanqing squatted down and patted her head. “Don’t be sad. You can’t be blamed for this. No one could have thought of it. ”

Song Beibei’s tears, which she had been holding back for a long time, suddenly fell.

Gu Yanqing wiped her tears. “Why are you crying? No one blames you. ”

It was precisely because no one blames her that Song Beibei felt even more upset.

He said, “is there anything I can help you with? ”

Gu Yanqing said, “leave this matter to me. It’s not as serious as you think. Most of the people at the Bar Association are Wan Jing’s friends for many years and know her character very well. The public opinion created on the Internet is even more trivial. Don’t forget that Pearl Group is more than enough to deal with those small media outlets. The most important thing now is… “… “…”

Gu Yanqing paused and frowned.

“What’s the most important thing? ” Song Beibei asked

Gu Yanqing ruffled her hair. “It’s nothing. Don’t worry about it. Are you going back to school or coming back with me? ”

Song Beibei said, “I don’t have any classes today. I’ll go back with you. ”

Later that night, Song Beibei Overheard Gu Yanqing calling.

She probably knew that the most important thing now was to find the old lady who gave the gift.
