Chapter 574: Chapter 387: Sudden Accident! Stamps! [Double Chapter, Requesting Monthly Ticket!]
Monopoly?
Who’s monopolizing?
Is Xu Liang monopolizing Upper City’s reputation?
This can’t be right. The other party clearly said that Upper City’s law firms want to monopolize judicial resources, which is why they formed an alliance to resist.
Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu showed some confusion on their faces, unable to figure out what was going on for a while.
Xu Liang quickly changed the subject and said:
"It’s nothing, just rumors."
Saying this,
he glanced to his side.
This was the airport’s exit; although the passage was wide, standing here could still obstruct others.
"Let’s not stand here anymore, let’s find a place to settle down first and then talk."
urged Xu Liang.
Hearing this, everyone came back to their senses and immediately started pulling their luggage and heading outside.
They didn’t spend money on a taxi; Wang Chao was driving an SUV, which could fit all of them easily.
The rented place...
was chosen to be Yang Ruoxi’s house in Upper City, located within a kilometer of the Upper City Supreme Court, surrounded by strong judicial power, with law firms big and small everywhere.
The house was three bedrooms and one living room, not particularly great but sufficient.
As for Wang Chao and Jiang Cheng...
they had their own things to do and didn’t stay long.
Just before leaving, Jiang Cheng stood at the door, genuinely asking Xu Liang.
"Lawyer Xu, is your law firm still hiring?"
Then, without waiting for a response, he introduced himself:
"I am currently co-founding a law firm in Upper City with others; including myself, I have a total of seven people."
"Don’t underestimate it by the number..."
saying this, Jiang Cheng patted his chest.
"But every person’s ability is beyond doubt!"
The seven people were his classmates from Shuimu University, originally intending to start a business together, but after four years of graduation, they faced the harsh realities of life.
Only...
"Graduated from Shuimu University?"
Xu Liang paused slightly, then raised his eyebrows, suspiciously saying:
"You shouldn’t lack for options..."
Shuimu University and Upper City University are of similar caliber, with seven graduates having four years of experience, theoretically, they could easily find a law firm as a home.
Even the proud and arrogant Jinhua Law Firm welcomes Jiang Cheng with open arms!
"We don’t think much of Jinhe."
Jiang Cheng didn’t hold back and responded frankly.
Not thinking much of them...
This statement would astonish those lawyers racking their brains to get into Jinhe...
"Please consider!" Jiang Cheng sincerely said.
Xu Liang, feeling somewhat helpless, could only agree, "Alright, I’ll think it over carefully."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng finally smiled and walked out.
Watching his back, Xu Liang felt a slight toothache.
Clearly, Jiang Cheng is ambitious, wanting to conquer "territories," hence he disdains the already famous "Jinhe" and chooses to join him from scratch and grow stronger.
It’s not much different from what Third Senior Sister said.
Upper City indeed doesn’t lack capable and ambitious people!
No wonder Jinhe and the others would join forces to resist me.
Thinking of this, Xu Liang shook his head, closed the door, and turned around, just in time to see Yang Ruoxi coming out of the bathroom, wiping her face with a towel.
At this moment, she showed a surprised expression.
"Is Lawyer Jiang planning to join our firm?" Yang Ruoxi looked puzzled.
Xu Liang nodded.
"Are you taking them?" Yang Ruoxi asked curiously.
Xu Liang directly replied, "Of course, seven experienced, high-profile lawyers with a strong educational background are a treasure, even without demanding any exceptional conditions."
"Only a fool would refuse!"
Seven Shuiumu University law graduates in this day and age, what a great asset!
If they want, they could easily start a large-scale law firm elsewhere, he’d be foolish not to accept.
"Great, our firm soon has nearly forty people!"
Yang Ruoxi seemed delighted, her eyes curving like crescent moons, appearing very jubilant.
"Stop smiling, let’s go eat first."
Xu Liang set his expression straight and looked towards the bedroom.
"Junior Sister, it’s time for dinner!"
They hadn’t had breakfast or lunch yet, already famished.
"Coming, coming!"
Su Yu replied and quickly joined them.
After tidying up, the three opened the door and left.
They didn’t have any particular food preferences, even being casual about what they eat, eventually settling on a street food stall.
"Wow, even roast duck available at a street stall... pretty rare."
The three sat on chairs by the bustling street side, Xu Liang holding the menu, selecting dishes.
It was already October 9th; the weather was no longer hot, but the midday sun was intense, fortunately, there was a sunshade provided by the stall.
"Let me have a look!"
Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu blinked, standing to either side of Xu Liang, bending slightly over him.
Xu Liang only felt something soft on his shoulder, two distinct scents lingered at his nose, with their hair tickling his nose, making him feel itchy.
"I want roasted fish!" Yang Ruoxi leaned forward, almost resting on Xu Liang’s shoulder.
Su Yu, meanwhile, pursed her lips, speaking gently.
"I’m craving lamb skewers..."
After saying this, Xu Liang hadn’t responded, but the two girls exchanged glances before turning their eyes away.
Xu Liang was pondering...
"But this is a roast duck restaurant!"
He looked up at the signboard, with the conspicuous ’Roast Duck Restaurant’ words, making him thoughtful.
Does a roast duck restaurant really offer those two items!?
Xu Liang fell into deep thought.
Yang Ruoxi glanced at their shadows on the ground, then leaned closer to Xu Liang, draw closer together, making her smile with pursed lips.
