Chapter 7.2 This is the fucking Ji Lin? ? ?

While Ji Lin was investigating Xu Zhixin exceedingly, Bai Duanduan, who was not aware of it, was relieved to resolve Xu Zhixin’s arbitration case. She rarely got off work on time. Fortunately, today the neighbor next door also returned home shortly after she reached home.

Most people would have given up after experiencing such an extreme failure over roast chicken and at the total lack of understanding from the other party. But Bai Duanduan was different, she was very brave and courageous, and firmly believes that failure is the mother of success.

Only this time, she decided to take a long-term view of what would be her next action to take.

Duan Yun agreed, “I suggest you to do something completely safe, like asking this guy for a favor, just something simple and casual. The first point is that, if a girl like you asks for help, it will show your weakness and need for protection; the second point is that, after this man solves your problem easily, you can then give him big compliments on all fronts. Who doesn’t like to hear compliments? Men love it when someone worships them, so prepare some words of praise, don’t exaggerate too much, just be natural. Then after the praise, you can apologize for your previous roast chicken, just in time to offer to have dinner together later in order to thank the other party for their help.”

Although Bai Duanduan was first-class in terms of professional ability at work, she was still at the level of elementary school students when it came to relationships. Duan Yun’s words once again made it dawn on her.

Excellent!

As expected, Duan Yun has the skills, with her by my side, I have the man in my hand!

After hanging up the phone, Bai Duanduan glanced at her old laptop on the desk, and shut it down immediately.

Bai Duanduan’s laptop was quite old. In fact, she hadn’t used it for a long time, but she didn’t expect it to come in handy now. She was going to lie that the system had suddenly crashed, and ask her handsome neighbor to reinstall the system. Easy! Isn’t it what Duan Yun said, the problem has to be easy to solve? After all, reinstalling the system could be done by simply inserting in a CD. In this way, when the other party finished reinstalling the system for her, she would follow Duan Yun’s routine step by step ……

Bai Duanduan knocked on the door and listened nervously to the sound of the other party’s footsteps from outside the door.

The door opened quickly, and the other party’s handsome and noble face appeared in front of Bai Duanduan again.

She had to sigh, this kind of face, no matter how many times she looked at it, she would still be moved.

Bai Duanduan revealed a carefully crafted smile and opened her mouth with a lovely, gentle and delicate expression, “Hello, I would like to ask if you have time to help me now ……”

This handsome neighbour opened his mouth almost immediately without waiting for herself to finish. His voice was cold and sensual but not losing its ascetic sensuality and shallowness. Bai Duanduan heard him spit out two letters clearly-

“No.”

? ? ?

what? ? ?

When the man finished speaking, he prepared to close the door without waiting for Bai Duanduan to react otherwise.

Fortunately, Bai Duanduan was strong enough to block the door from closing. She was panicking now as she forgot to pretend weak “I haven’t finished speaking yet! You can at least listen to what I need help with! It’s not difficult!”

Maybe the man thought that this neighbour of his was going to ask him for some very troublesome favour. As soon as he knows that it was just a reinstallation of the system, he probably won’t refuse.

The man on the other side of the door glanced at Bai Duanduan, his appearance was still very cold and said “Okay, then you say.”

Bai Duanduan cleared her throat and tried to restore her soft and weak  demeanor, “I just want to ask you if you are free to help me reinstall the computer system?”

“No.”

After the man said, he glanced at Bai Duanduan with an expression of ‘Are you satisfied with what you heard?’ He continued “I have listened to what you had to say, now can I close the door? I am very busy.”

“……”

Bai Duanduan just watched dumbfounded as the other party mercilessly flung the door shut again in front of her.

This man was so cruel and unkind contrary to his looks…

It was a pity that Bai Duanduan thinks that he became more charming. It’s fine if he was handsome but he was even a flower on the mountain peak. He was so indifferent, so mysterious, so individualistic, so isolated, so difficult to talk to, so slow, and so completely unmoved by other’s presence. How difficult was it to chase this kind of man? He was so precious. Once he likes me, he would be so desperate, not to mention decisive. I’m afraid even if I want to shake him away, I can’t get rid of him. He is absolutely valuable and worth having!

A woman who studied law will never admit defeat, I , Bai Duanduan will chase him to the end!

___________

It was a pity that soon, Bai Duanduan didn’t have much time to dwell in these romantic fantasies. Lin Hui smashed her with another case. This case was not to wipe Du Xinyi’s ass for a change, but rather because Du Xinyi refused to pick it up.

This was a case of migrant workers’ rights to claim their wages. The migrant workers and the construction company did not sign a formal labor contract at all, and they worked hard for several months moving bricks on the construction site. Even though they were owed wages, they worked honestly, but they did not expect that once the project was over, the contractor would run away with the money. The project unit refused to pay the outstanding wages on the grounds that there was no labor contract and no labor relationship existed.

This case was actually not difficult. Although there was no labor contract, as long as it can be proved that the labor relationship does exist, she can ask for double wages for migrant workers on the ground that the company did not sign a written contract with workers which violates the Labor Law. And it was not difficult to prove that. If migrant workers did work on the construction site for a few months, they would always leave evidence, such as the work license, the signature when they received the lunch box, the helmet and other daily necessities belonging to them plus the witness testimony of fellow workers. It was very easy to form a chain of evidence. The only thing that was not easy was that it was difficult to collect evidence. She need to travel around the dusty construction site and talk to the rest of the workers to collect the evidence.

Bai Duanduan also knows why Du Xinyi refused to accept this kind of case. She just disliked the fact that the case was too small in terms of the amount of money involved. For so much hard work, she can not make a lot of money. It was troublesome to obtain evidence, and the people she would contact were not high-end. The literacy level of the party concerned was relatively low, and it was harder than a normal case if she want to communicate well with the other party without causing any trouble.

“Lawyer Bai, thank you! I haven’t seen my son for three years since I came out to work. He has always wanted an electric car of that kind. Even if I received the wages, keeping aside my living expenses I don’t think I could afford it after the money I had to remit for living expenses. Now that I got an amount double of my wage rate, I can buy it for my child! Thank you so much!”

Bai Duanduan has no shortage of cases, and with her ability, she does not need to take such cases at all, but she will never refuse it. Hard work was hard work, and even if there was not much money, in the end, when she saw the smile on the migrant worker’s face when they not only got the wages they were entitled to, but also got double the amount because the other party breached the law and did not sign the written contract. Bai Duanduan felt that everything was very worth it. Most of the workers are very kind, and they just hope to get money in exchange for their work.

She bid farewell to the migrant workers outside the arbitration tribunal court. Seeing that it was still early, she thought about going to a nearby cafe for a cup of coffee, where it was an unexpected pleasure to bump into her handsome neighbour.
