Chapter Seventy-Nine: He Hanchuan's brilliant use of a
any losses, so why would I go against Pei Shao”"But you are He Hanchuan's woman." Pei Song intensified his voice, a sinister glint in his eyes.Towards Evening felt a chill run down her spine, “He is...Towards the evening, she sat on her bed eating a dragon fruit, barely saying a word. She wasn't one to be outgoing, neither before nor now.
"A good lawyer's eloquence isn't just talking a mile a minute. You rambling like this, making up stuff as you go, will get you caught out by the other lawyer." Zhong Yuxuan tapped Ren Xiaoya's head.
Ren Xiaoya's eyes rolled around, then stopped like a paused button, instantly falling silent.
But only after ten minutes of silence, "Your name is Xiang Wan, isn't it Xiang Wan, will you have to return to Meng Hui Society for work after you leave the hospital this time"
"...Hmm." Xiangwan paused her action of eating the dragon fruit, a hint of gloom flashing in her eyes. She wasn't sure if her plan to seduce He Hanchuan would succeed.
Even if he succeeded, would he really let her leave the Dream Sanctuary Who knows, maybe after playing around with her, he'd still keep her trapped in the Dream Sanctuary and humiliate her.
Even though hope was slim, she had to try. That was her only option.
"I still have to go back..." Ren Xiaoya's baby face crumpled into a ball. Suddenly, she remembered something and jumped up abruptly, wrapping her arms around Zhong Yuxuan's neck, her legs circling his waist, hanging on him.
Upon seeing this, Yanan accidentally took a sip of her drink and coughed twice. She pulled out a tissue and wiped the dragon fruit off her lips.
"Go down." Zhong Yuxuan was afraid she would fall, so he supported her with both hands.
"Master—" Ren Xiaoya leaned against his neck, swaying back and forth, acting coquettishly. "You're not good friends with that He guy, right Just let him let go of Xiang Wan, okay"
Xiang Wan was slightly taken aback. She had heard that He Hanchuan had a lawyer friend, but the other party had been studying abroad and she had never met them. It turned out to be Zhong Yuxuan.
Her eyes flashed. If he spoke up for her in front of He Hanchuan, maybe that would be a solution.
Zhong Yuxuan gave her a thoughtful glance, then pushed his gold-rimmed glasses that were almost knocked askew by Ren Xiaoya's shaking, "Go down first."
"You have to agree!" Ren Xiaoya insisted, "Master, isn't a lawyer's duty to punish the wicked and promote the good Xiang Wan was bullied by He Hanchuan like this, please help her!"
Zhong Yuxuan calmly corrected, "You're talking about prosecutors and police. Lawyers only serve money."
Seeing that he had no intention of helping, Yanan opened her mouth to say, 'Thank you for your kindness, Miss Ren,' but the words died in her throat.
She clutched the sheets tightly, her gaze dropping, her breath slightly more rapid than usual.
It's clear that Zhong Yuxuan cares deeply for his disciple, Ren Xiaoya. What if...what if he agrees Then her chances of leaving the Meng Huishuo would increase!
"Master——!!" Ren Xiaoya roared like a lion from the East River, "If you don't agree, I won't come down!"
Zhong Yuxuan remained unmoved. "Then hang on, just don't complain to me later if your hands get sore."
"......Ren Xiaoya instantly wilted, mumbling, “No wonder you're friends with He Hanchuan, that ruthless capitalist. You two are a match made in hell...”
Towards Evening swallowed the dragon fruit in her mouth, a flicker of sadness passing through her eyes. "Thank you, Miss Ren, for helping me twice. Please don't make things difficult for Mr. Zhong. Our positions are different, and he should also have his difficulties."
Ren Xiaoya let go of Zhong Yuxuan's neck and fell to the ground, twisting her body uncomfortably. "Actually, my master isn't bad either. His parents told him not to interfere with your brother's case, and he immediately withdrew the lawsuit."
"You withdrew the lawsuit, because of Mr. Zhong's parents!" Xiang Wan suddenly raised her head, slightly flustered.
"Yeah." Seeing her agitated, Ren Xiaoya felt baffled, "My master's parents have a bit of an acquaintance with your parents, so my master's parents asked him not to get involved in your brother's case, and then he withdrew the lawsuit."
She spoke in a tongue twister-like way and finally asked, "What's up"
"It's fine." Xiangwan put down the dragon fruit, her expression had returned to normal, but her hand was still tightly clutching the sheet beneath her.
He Hanchuan's plan to kill two birds with one stone worked perfectly. Not only did he avoid any unpleasantness with Zhong Yuxuan because of his brother's case, but he also got the land in G City's new development zone owned by the Xiang family for free!
Ren Xiaoya let out a long sigh, feeling awkward and guilty for not being able to help Xiang Wan. Her eyes flickered as she mumbled something about needing to use the restroom and quickly dashed out.
Taking a glance at the washroom in the ward, Xiangwan pursed her lips.
"How did you meet Miss Xiang and Xiao Ya" Zhong Yuxuan walked to the door and closed it.
向晚 looked at him with a glance, then lowered her head and put down the just-picked dragon fruit. She said lightly, "I work at the Dream Manor, Miss Ren is a guest, we happened to meet."
"Was it just a chance encounter, or was it premeditated" Zhong Yuxuan pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose. Sunlight streamed in through the window, reflecting off the lenses, making it impossible to see the expression in his eyes.
The faint smell of disinfectant filled the ward. The white bedsheets, white walls, and beige floor should have been relaxing, but there was a jarring quality to them at this moment.
Towards the evening, she propped herself up on her elbows. "The first time I met Miss Ren," she murmured, shuffling closer to the pillow, "the newly appointed Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee hadn't even been in the news yet."
She let out a self-deprecating chuckle, "Do you think I, a newly released convict with no connections, could possibly get hold of the new municipal party secretary's information"
"It's not like there's no background to this, right" Zhong YuXuan peeled a banana slowly. "The Xiang family cut ties with you, but it seems that Shao Xiang has been in contact with you all along."
W向晚 frowned slightly, "Assuming I knew Miss Ren was the daughter of the new municipal party secretary, what ability would I have to get her to Dream Club"
Xiao Ya had always been well-protected by her family. She had only graduated two months ago and didn't know how complex the world was, she only knew that she was full of enthusiasm to help people. Zhong Yu Xuan took a bite of a banana and said slowly: "But this doesn't mean there are no understanding people around her."
A-Wan let out a sigh and tossed the half-eaten dragon fruit into the trash can. “Then I’ll trouble that wise person to persuade Miss Ren nicely, asking her not to care about me, this murderer anymore. I can’t bear it.”
"At your service," Zhong Yuxuan raised an eyebrow slightly, ate the banana in three bites, and threw it into the trash can. "But Xiao Ya is stubborn, I'm not sure if my advice will work. Also, please avoid her as much as possible when you see her in the future."
A-Wai pressed down on the rage churning in her chest, her voice flat as she said, "Also, please tell Miss Ren from Mr. Zhong that I appreciate it. Tell her not to just go around doing good deeds willy-nilly, because…" Her kindness might end up burdening others.
She stopped mid-sentence, swallowing. "Just say thank you. I'm tired and need to rest for a while. Mr. Zhong, goodbye, take care."
"I understand your gratitude, Miss Xie. As a return gesture, I will say a few good words for you in front of Hanchuan, but whether he chooses to listen is not something I can guarantee." Zhong Yuxuan finished speaking and walked toward the door.

No response.
Zhong Yuxuan strode out of the ward, clean and sharp. The moment the door closed, the last ray of sunlight was shut out.
