Yan Wen picked up the documents and followed, she took small steps and said, “Lawyer An, don’t say that. Actually, Judge Xu is quite handsome. It’s not an exaggeration to say that he’s the youngest, most handsome judge in the open a court session. I’m still willing to stay in the same place with him. Watching him at the open a court session is like watching a Korean drama after a beauty treatment…”
Before she could finish her sentence, An Lan gave her a rude look and said, “Yes, this Korean drama will affect your financial income. We’ve worked hard for a month to prepare for the lawsuit, and now your bonus has been canceled because of the loss of the lawsuit.”
“…”
Yan Wen caught up with her and cried without tears, “Being handsome is nothing! I’d better go back and draw a circle to curse him.”
As she walked towards the elevator, An Lan stopped in her tracks as she passed by the washroom. “Wait for me downstairs. I need to go to the washroom.”
After going to the washroom, An Lan received a call from her best friend, Li Shuang. “What happened? Did you win the lawsuit? Do you want to treat me to a big meal tonight? I had a fight with my hubby and I don’t want to see his ugly face at home. Shall we go out and have some fun?”
“I’m not in the mood. I lost the lawsuit.” An Lan opened her makeup bag gloomily and started to touch up her makeup. As a female lawyer, she had to maintain her exquisite makeup wherever she went.
“That’s impossible.” Li Shuang was surprised. The lawsuit that an LAN fought had recently been on the news and was quite popular. The defendant, Lin Hao, had evidence of having a mistress. “Then it’s clearly a case of intentional wife murder. At the very least, you’ll have to be locked up for a few decades.”
“Bullsh*t,” An Lan cursed angrily. “In the end, he somehow managed to get a report of a brake failure, which was classified as a negligent crime.”
Li Shuang instantly understood that there was a huge difference between a negligent crime and a premeditated murder. “That doesn’t make sense. With your eloquence and quick thinking, you should be able to turn the situation around within minutes, right?”
“That’s right. I wanted to try and convince the jury, but my saliva was already dry. Many of the jurors were moved, but Xu Baohan was unmoved.” An Lan sighed, “This guy is a typical cold-blooded, heartless, and inhumane person. Normally, that warm-hearted card wouldn’t work on him. I curse this kind of person to be cuckolded, cheated on, and have a useless sex life in the future. Even if he divorces his wife, he will definitely be stripped of all his assets by the woman…”
An Lan cursed as she applied her lipstick. At this moment, she suddenly saw a figure standing at the entrance of the toilet. He looked a little familiar, but his figure was tall and straight. He was over 1.85 meters tall, and his gaze was as sharp as a blade.
When she saw that face clearly, An Lan’s hand trembled. The lipstick on her hand was directly applied to her lips, drawing a bright red line on her face.
At that moment, Li Shuang was still sighing over the phone. “Isn’t it just losing a lawsuit? It still needs to escalate to a personal attack. Lawyer an, you’ve fully exposed your narrow-minded character…”
An Lan hurriedly hung up the phone, her tone embarrassed. “Chief Judge Xu…”
Xu Baohan’s clear gaze paused on the lipstick bar on her mouth for a second, and he coldly opened his thin lips, “According to Article 42 of the Law on administrative penalties for public security, anyone who publicly insults others or fabricates facts to slander others shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than 500 yuan. If the circumstances are serious, they shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than 10 days, and may also be fined not more than 500 yuan. Insulting a government official in a gross manner or seriously disturbing public order may constitute the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble.”
“…”
The corner of An Lan’s mouth twitched. This guy really deserved to be a judge. He was really freaky.
