Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

“Stop spouting nonsense, you spy.” An Lan rolled her eyes at him. “He gets jealous easily.”

Li Yuchen chuckled. “I can’t tell.”

“What can you tell?” An Lan couldn’t be bothered with him and walked straight into the reception room.

She pushed the door open and entered. A fashionable-looking man in a tuxedo sat on the sofa. When he saw her enter, he waved with a smile. “Hi Lawyer An, we meet again.”

An Lan had a good memory. Wasn’t this the person she had met at Xiao Si’s wedding? Xu Baohan’s ex-girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend, how complicated!

“Why, someone in your family has been murdered?” An Lan returned with a smile and sat opposite him, her elegant legs crossed. “Or are your parents getting a divorce, or is your family’s company going bankrupt due to a legal dispute?”

Tang Zheng’s smiling face instantly froze.

“I’m only good at fighting these lawsuits.” An Lan rested one arm on the sofa pillow behind her and supported her temples. “There’s no point in looking for me for anything else.”

“No.” Before Tang Zheng could finish his sentence, An Lan suddenly turned on the timer on her phone. “Hurry up. My fee is four thousand five hundred dollars an hour. We charge by the second.”

“Isn’t it two thousand five hundred dollars an hour?” Tang Zheng gnashed his teeth and pointed at the consultation fee at the door.

“The price has increased. It just increased.” An Lan raised her eyebrows lightly. “I like to slaughter pigs.”

“An Lan, don’t go too far.” Tang Zheng’s face was red with anger, “I’m sincerely looking for you to discuss a collaboration. Our company is going to sign a large project with someone recently and needs a legal consultant. I know you’re good at this. Xiao Si’s company projects have always been your responsibility. I can pay more than them.”

“I’ve been busy recently and I don’t have the time,” An Lan said with a faint smile. “Of course, if someone in your family was killed or your parents were divorced, I would be very willing to accept it because I’m very kind and especially like to accept your family’s cases.”

Tang Zheng stood up in anger. “You did it on purpose, you’re such a vicious woman.”

“So many people said that about me today,” An Lan yawned. “Besides, you know very well what your motive is for coming to me. Who knows if you’ll dig a hole for me? If you can’t take revenge on Xu Baohan, you’ll have no choice but to come to me.”

“You’re afraid, aren’t you?” Tang Zheng suddenly laughed and said sarcastically, “Lawyer An is so timid, you don’t even want to earn money.”

“Don’t mock me, it’s useless,” An Lan laughed lightly, “For a rich lawyer like me, you wouldn’t understand our mentality of not wanting to earn money. Besides, I’m so beautiful, what if you really like me? I don’t want to get involved in a sexual dispute and affect my relationship with my boyfriend. Besides, I’ll be a legal consultant for President Nian, Mr. Xiao and the others because they’re too handsome. A woman like me, who cares about looks, can’t reject them.”

In other words, he wasn’t handsome enough.

Tang Zheng took a deep breath to prevent himself from being angered to death. “I’m not too bad looking.”

An Lan slowly stood up and walked towards him, “If you can’t catch a woman’s heart, don’t even think about using such an improper method to make others unhappy. I know all your thoughts from the moment you appeared in front of me. You can cheat a young lady who has no money or social experience, but your methods are too immature to cheat me. If I were you and her heart wasn’t with me, I would never pester. There’s a lot of time in life, why would you want to be entangled with a strange woman like me, who humiliate and trample on you, just to upset Xu Baohan?”

The fragrance of her body assaulted his nostrils, and Tang Zheng was slightly startled.

“Pay me the money by the minute and you can go now.” An Lan pointed at the time on her phone and showed it to him, then turned around and walked towards the door.
