Chapter 34:Work Together (1/2)
”Sheng, I need your help.”
Song Sheng's face held no emotions; therefore, it was hard to decipher how to he felt, what he was thinking. But she came to look for him for another reason.
”I thought so. You wouldn't have looked for me if it wasn't so,” Song Sheng said.
Qian Meigui nodded in agreement. ”You weren't answering your calls, so I came here instead.”
Song Sheng looked at her, eyes calm, his face tight. ”I'm sorry; I was busy.”
”No need,” Qian Meigui responded bluntly.
”Why are you here?” he asked.
”I need your help on a case I am working on.”
Song Sheng was stunned, ”Case?” he questioned.
Song Sheng raised a brow, but he looked worried.
”Don't worry, I already know how to defend them, but I need you to help me more on investigative matters. I believe that they are lying to obtain more money, but the plaintiff seems confident,” said Qian Meigui.
Song Sheng placed his hands in pocket, leaning back on the table. He smiled as Qian Meigui rolled her eyes. ”What is it?” she asked unkindly.
”You've grown,” he said with a smile. Qian Meigui gritted her teeth in annoyance. He would always treat her like a child needing to be taken care of! But since Ren gave her this opportunity, she realized she would no longer be the one to depend on her family or others. She will take these matters and conquer them, and it was about time Song Sheng realized it too.
”I have grown up long ago,” she corrected him. Song Sheng's jaw tightened. She strung a chord in him. Perhaps he did not expect her to say that, or anything.
