Chapter 1917: Let’s Get Together Again
This case involving An Jinwei couldn’t have been simpler. The evidence was all there; the basis was all there. Any random case handed to Ning Shu at the law firm was more complicated than this. It wouldn’t take long to settle this.
An Jinwei looked at Ning Shu dressed in a suit. His face was pale, but his eyes were bright as he stared at Ning Shu.
Ning Shu asked the defendant to compensate 50,000 yuan for mental damage and defamation.
Hearing 50,000 yuan, the old An family couple almost jumped from their seats in the audience.
An Jinwei pursed his lips, his thoughts hidden, but agreed to pay the 50,000 yuan, almost causing his mother to faint.
The lawsuit quickly ended. After leaving the building, Ning Shu said to An Jinwei, “This is my bank account number. Wire the money to me.”
“Chen Ning.” An Jinwei stopped Ning Shu and asked softly, “Is Nannan okay? When you go to court, does she stay at home alone?”
Ning Shu looked at this version of An Jinwei. “What does it matter to you?”
“Why wouldn’t it matter to me? I am also Nannan’s father,” An Jinwei said quickly. He blocked Ning Shu from leaving. “Chen Ning, let’s get together again and raise Nannan well.”
Fuck. Ning Shu almost spat in An Jinwei’s face. How could a person be so shameless? Now that she could make money and was free of depression, he wanted to get back together again?
The heck, had she been too kind before?
When An Jinwei saw that Ning Shu wasn’t saying anything, he actually reached out to hold her hand. She immediately slapped his face. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.”
“It’s best not to mess with me. Otherwise, I’ll play you to death. If you think you have the ability to play with me, see if that doesn’t happen.” Ning Shu sneered, “You think I’m someone you can just dump and pick back up at will? Ha…”
Ning Shu left immediately after finishing. An Jinwei covered his face, his eyes full of hatred.
“You can’t beat this woman right now. It’s best to put away those thoughts,” An Jinwei’s father sighed.
“The money she earns should belong to our family,” An Jinwei’s mother said.
“She really is a calamity. Alas…” An Jinwei’s father sighed helplessly. His figure seemed to instantly become weaker and hunched over.
When Ning Shu left the court building, the Chen family was waiting for her at the intersection. Chen An hurriedly walked up to Ning Shu. “Sister, how did you become a lawyer?”
Ning Shu glanced at him indifferently, flagged down a taxi, and left. She went to the nursery to pick up Nannan. She never said a word to the Chen family.
The Chen family was the original host’s family, not hers. The original host could handle them however she wanted, Ning Shu didn’t want to take care of that.
If you weren’t firm and were as weak as a steamed bun, you couldn’t blame dogs for following you. You must choose how to live your own life.
It wasn’t easy for a divorced woman to care for a child. Ning Shu felt that there was never enough time. She had to work and take care of the child every day. She also acted as both a mother and a father to guide and teach the child, but she only had a limited amount of energy.
Ning Shu’s only goal in this task was to be a good lawyer. As for merit points, she’d already stopped thinking about those. She was already completely overwhelmed with just this one job. She just hoped that Chen Ning could continue like this and live well with her child when she came back.
Ning Shu was ready to go after picking up Nannan. When she returned to the hotel, Ning Shu received a text message from the bank. 50,000 yuan had been transferred to her card.
It was pretty fast. The An family didn’t dare to refuse to pay up after all.
