Chapter 136 What's His Name

When Xu Chichuan realized that Gao Shenyuan might like him, he had already been an intern at the law firm for half a year.

But he can't be blamed for being slow.

Gao Shenyuan is not a green and impulsive young man, his mind will be disturbed if he likes it a little bit, he has passed the age of irrational love, and it is taboo to talk about relationships in the workplace, let alone two men; According to Da Da's theory, acting rashly will only scare people away, so he grasped the measure just right, while increasing his understanding of Xu Chichuan through the relationship between superiors and subordinates, and at the same time participating in the lives of children in the name of brothers in the same school.

What's more, with Lawyer Gao's rank and skill, it is easy to conceal that small thought, so he easily and quietly detected all kinds of things.

For example, Xu Chichuan has a good memory and a solid knowledge of legal provisions. It took a lot of effort to understand and familiarize with the legal provisions. He also has a strong sense of responsibility and good ability. He will try his best to complete the tasks assigned. There was a case before. Two days before leaving the courtroom, the witness suddenly repented and refused to testify in court. Gao Shenyuan had to search for new evidence while trying to persuade the witness. During those two days, lawyer Gao’s pressure was extremely low, and he walked in the law firm with a devilish face. The dog would make a detour when it saw it, and the two trainee lawyers involved in the case could not bear the pressure and collapsed. Only Xu Chichuan silently endured overtime with him, and quietly sorted out the new court appearance materials all night.

After the case was won, Gao Shenyuan transferred those two people to other lawyers' offices, and then approved a bonus from his own dividends to his assistant.

Xu Chichuan blinked a pair of almond eyes with a confused expression: "Does the intern assistant also get a bonus?"

"Yes," Attorney Gao opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Specially approved."

"So," he was a little nervous, "thank you, brother."

"You're welcome," Gao Shenyuan smiled slightly, resisting the urge to reach out and rub his hair, "You deserve it."

Xu Chichuan didn't fail in the school courses, and even had time to take the IELTS test. A score of seven is not very good, but it is more than enough. Gao Shenyuan finally understood why Mr. Chen was so picky, so he mentioned This little apprentice was always full of pride.

At the same time, he also confirmed one thing——

Xu Chichuan is not in a relationship, and is likely to be, and doesn't like women.

After all, he has personally seen how a child rejects a girl who comes to confess his love, with a polite and resolute appearance, and a gentleman, not to mention that even if a normal man refuses, he should feel a little pity when he sees a girl cry, but from the beginning to the end, Xu Chichuan The expression on his face has not changed, even when the girl's eyes are red, there is no wave, so——

Gao Shenyuan decided to let go of his hands and feet a little bit, boiled the frog in warm water, and invaded his life step by step, firmly and slowly.

Met in the cafeteria at noon to have a meal together, drove people back to the dormitory after working overtime, went to the school to find someone to discuss work in the name of visiting the teacher during the break, and even wanted to transfer the workstation to the office. He made a phone call to improve efficiency and save time, but in the end Xu Chichuan refused because "this does not comply with the regulations".

Lawyer Gao is very confident in himself. Over the years, he has been in contact with some people one after another, but they are all sex friends who only go to bed and don’t talk about love. Occasionally, he will stop the other party’s attraction immediately after he notices it, not to mention his own As for the conditions, he has already seized the opportunity for the fellow apprentice brothers alone.

This confidence was shattered the night he sent Xu Chichuan to the hospital.

A major economic dispute case had just ended that day. Gao Shenyuan narrowly defeated the other party and won the lawsuit. People from the law firm went to celebrate together. There were constant congratulations during the banquet. It's okay, after the game ended, there was a faint pain in his stomach. Seeing that he was uncomfortable, Gao Shenyuan proposed to send him to the hospital, but Xu Chichuan shook his head: "Go back and sleep and it will be fine."

So let the substitute driver go to school first, Xu Chichuan curled up in the back seat, covered his stomach with both hands, frowned in pain, beads of sweat dripped on the seat cushion, his face became paler and paler, and he didn't last At the school gate, people fainted.

"Xiao Chuan!"

Woke up after drinking, and urged the driver brother to drive to the hospital with his life. Gao Shenyuan rushed to the emergency room with someone in his arms. He had acute gastritis and was going to be hospitalized. Lawyer Gao found a private room with a big wave of his hand, and guarded people to drink water and give injections. Xu Chichuan woke up twice from the pain, vomited out all he ate at night, closed his eyes in a drowsy state after vomiting, frowned, and slept very restlessly.

Gao Shenyuan had no experience in coaxing others, so he could only gently pat the quilt to comfort him: "It's okay, Xiao Chuan, it's okay, don't be afraid."

Just as he was about to reach out to wipe the sweat off his face, he heard a sob, he had some nightmare, his breathing was short of breath, and he unconsciously called brother.

Gao Shenyuan was stunned.

elder brother?

He had inquired that Xu Chichuan was the only son, and he didn't have a good relationship with his family, so who was he calling brother?

It's not calling him after all.

A strong sense of crisis slowly crept up Lawyer Gao's back, and a thought that he had never thought of flashed through his mind: If Xu Chichuan didn't like women, and didn't fall in love... Could it be because there was someone in his heart?

Still a man who never forgets.

Gao Shenyuan is not well.

I thought that the dead tree is in spring, but the result is that I have turned my heart to the bright moon, but why does the bright moon shine on the ditch? ? ?

The man clenched his hands tightly, his chest under the suit heaved and heaved, his dark eyes stared at the sleeping child on the bed, after a long time his fists were slowly loosened, and the wrinkles on the trousers were particularly obvious.

He is not going to give up.

Adhering to the professional ethics of a lawyer, the man quickly calmed down and quickly calculated the current situation. It is better to know now than to know when he confessed. There is no such suspicious person around Xu Chichuan. Most likely it is a former classmate or friend who has already After being separated for a long time, and thinking about the appearance of the child who is always focused on the internship, it is very likely that we have lost contact. If this is the case——

Immediately, I felt certain that an old sweetheart who was not around and had no contact with him, even if he had some feelings and feelings, it was yesterday's flowers, and it was not enough to pose a threat.

Then don't procrastinate, Gao Shenyuan thought, even if the relationship is a little deeper, as long as the time is long enough and he is good enough, there is nothing that cannot be defeated.

After making up his mind, his tense shoulders finally relaxed, and he sat on the bed and waited quietly for someone to wake up.

When Xu Chichuan woke up, his stomach was still aching, and his deep male voice awakened his broken nerves: "Are you awake?"

A straw was handed to his mouth, warm water went into his stomach to dispel the pain, and he drank more than half of the glass in one breath: "Senior brother..."

"Why didn't you say you can't drink?" Gao Shenyuan looked serious, "Next time if you do this again, you won't be allowed to go back to work in the law firm for a month."

"No, you can't drink it," Xu Chichuan retorted slightly. "I've never drank liquor before..."

"If you talk back again, your employee card will be suspended tomorrow."

...Shut up obediently and finish the remaining half glass of water.

"You were talking in your sleep just now," Gao Shenyuan poured him another glass, seemingly casually said, "It seems that you called me by a name."

Xu Chichuan was taken aback for a moment, the cup was not held firmly, and the water spilled on the bed. The man was startled, and hurriedly lifted the quilt to see if he was scalded, but when he looked up, he saw those almond eyes were absent-minded and dull, as if his soul had been sucked out, and he was drowning. Lost in a plight of nothingness.

The man's heart sank.

"Ogawa," he yelled, "who is that to you?"

Xu Chichuan came back to his senses and met the man's deep eyes. In an instant, those hidden emotions broke free from the false restraint, exposed naked to the sun, and understood everything.

"My love," Xu Chichuan said slowly, a strange light flashed in his eyes, "my love."

Gao Shenyuan's face remained unchanged: "A man?"

"Yes."

"What about others?"

"gone."

"You are waiting for him."

"Ah."

"how long?"

"The seventh year," the understatement seemed to say seven days, "to be more precise, seven years, five months and thirteen days."

"If the law firm wants to fire me because of this, I have no objection."

"As for other things," I lowered my head to avoid the man's hot gaze, "Senior brother, I'm sorry."

"Why?" The man still didn't give up, he reached out to grab his arm but in vain, "You two have been separated for a long time."

"He'll be back."

"It's been seven years, and it only takes 180 days to fly from Earth to Mars." Gao Shenyuan's eyes were as sharp as a knife, "Xiaochuan, this is not a waiting with an end."

"That's my business," Xu Chichuan looked up at him, "Lawyer Gao, you're too involved."

The man fell silent for a moment, surprised that he was too sharp, Xu Chichuan softened his tone: "I'm sorry, brother, I don't mean anything else."

"I admire your knowledge and your ability, but..."

"In that case," the man cut off his words, "at least give me a chance."

Unexpectedly, Xu Chichuan shook his head: "It's not necessary."

"why?"

He was a little annoyed, what a brat, he didn't even have a chance.

"Because apart from him," Gao Shenyuan glanced at her as firmly as he did when rejecting that girl, and actually read a bit of deep-seated paranoia, "No one else can do it."

The man endured and endured with all his heart, mobilizing all the willpower in his life to suppress the sourness, and calmly said: "I respect your rejection."

Before Xu Chichuan breathed a sigh of relief, he heard him continue: "But I also reserve the right to pursue you."

"Don't worry," the man said sincerely, but with undeniable strength, "I won't cause you any trouble at work."

Xu Chichuan sighed: "Brother, it's useless."

"To borrow your words, that's my business," Gao Shenyuan smiled, "Or are you worried that your waiting will be shaken by my pursuit?"

He will not be fooled by the aggressive method: "This is not going to happen."

"That's good," the man said, "We each rely on our own abilities."

Xu Chichuan took a deep breath: "Okay."

At worst, resign and change to another law firm.

Gao Shenyuan did what he said, and his working hours would never be mixed with personal feelings. Xu Chichuan's heart was slightly relieved, but he was still a little awkward. Getting along with him was no longer as natural as before. If you can hide, you can hide, and you don't want to rub the car, let alone eat together.Gao Shenyuan didn't expose his little trick, he knew that this was a protracted battle and he couldn't rush.

After a few heavy rains, Jiang Gong gradually cooled down. The two rows of ginkgo trees outside the teaching building were flourishing, and the rain washed the ground golden. Xu Chichuan picked up a piece and put it in his notebook, watching it slowly dry and change color.

One leaf knows autumn.

At the end of this autumn, will it rain or not?

On the eighth floor of the office, the doors and windows of the meeting room were closed, and the LED display screen on the wall flipped through pages quickly. Several partners of the law firm were looking at the documents in their hands. Gao Shenyuan raised his head first: "Haiyue Technology came to find us?"

"No," the man named Yuan Pei on the opposite side adjusted his glasses, "Right now Jiang Gong and Lan Sheng are robbing his family's legal advisors of any well-known and powerful law firms."

"The company is so strong, and the conditions are so good, it's right to grab it," Gao Shenyuan clicked on his phone, "A classmate of mine who works in the UK said that the boss behind Haiyue is the Chi family."

"There are two bosses," Yuan Pei said, "I heard that the one from Chi's family has gone back. The new boss just landed a few days ago. He is young and tough, and the subordinates are very obedient. He is the one who asked him to replace the legal affairs .”

"what is it call?"

"There are his introduction and photos on the information."

Gao Shenyuan turned to the last page, and a heroic face instantly came into view. He had to admit that this face was so superior that he couldn't fault it. Too cold, too shady, Pingtan is like stagnant water, not like a young man in his 20s, continue to look down, the man's name and title are printed in black and white next to the photo——

Mu Shihai, General Manager of Haiyue Technology

"Shen Yuan," Yuan Pei called his name, "You are responsible for this hot potato."

"First send people to contact and get to the bottom of it."
