Chapter 17: Chapter 8 Shut the fuck up, you devil!!!

Bai Duanduan doesn’t know how she left the cafe in the end. She only remembered that she gave Ji Lin a ferocious look and dropped the cruel words “you wait for me” as she raised her head and walked out of the coffee shop in her ten-centimeter stiletto heels.

However, although she did not lose her face or her aura, Bai Duanduan’s heart has dealt a serious blow.

She had fallen in love at first sight for the first time, but she had fallen in love with Ji Lin, the legendary stingy man, the strange man who rarely comes across in 3,000 years!

Not only had she fallen in love, she had even presumed to get her hands on the that man, which was the tragedy of tragedies.

Her heart was already weeping and it happened to be Duan Yun who called to inquire about the progress of her pursuit of her handsome neighbour. Remembering her boast in front of Duan Yun and her disdain for Ji Lin, Bai Duanduan had no face to tell the truth, so she vaguely stated that she had recently had an epiphany.

“I’ve figured out that it’s better to have money than to have a man, and you can’t even imagine the joy of having money! Besides, have you ever heard the saying? ‘We successful ladies don’t fall in love, we go to escorts’. As long as the money is in place, even when I’m old, I can still pick up fresh meat. I should make money while I’m young and try to become a rich woman soon. In life, you shouldn’t stop for one or two men, you have to see all the beautiful sights!” Bai Duanduan babbled, “Besides, the construction of socialist legal system is still in progress, my heart only wants to build socialism, I have no intention to fall in love!”

“……”

No matter what, relying on her nonsense, Bai Duanduan at least managed to divert Duan Yun’s attention from her handsome neighbor.

It was just that Duan Yun no longer cared, but Bai Duanduan was still very depressed inside. She had fallen out of love, even before she could fall in love.

At times like this, she could only divert her attention by cleaning the house, and as a result, after cleaning, Bai Duanduan sorted out a few large bags of garbage. Recently, in order to comply with the new “Waste Separation Law”, the property management has temporarily withdrawn the garbage bins from the safe passageway of every floor and planned to replace them with separate garbage bins. Therefore, right now, one can only carry the garbage bags downstairs.

The temporary waste separation bins are now located at a short distance away from the residential building. Bai Duanduan made several trips back and forth and finally finished the last bag of garbage before preparing to go back, but the result was that she and Ji Lin ran into each other.

The other party was carrying a bag of garbage and was obviously on his way to the garbage bin. The area was so green that there was only a single path leading from the residents’ building to the temporary garbage bin, with small high-rise buildings on both sides.

It was on this one-way street that Bai Duanduan and Ji Lin met each other.

Bai Duanduan did not move, and neither did Ji Lin.

Bai Duanduan glanced at the high level face that she once praised as cold and stern. But now, she only feels that it was unpleasant to look at. A man who looks so good, why was he scratching his head and posing in front of her? Regardless of the fact that the surface is full of indecent play, what kind of a serious man can he be if he grew up like this?

The man scratched his head at the back, glanced at Bai Duan Duan, and said coldly “I suggest you move away.” ;

It was said that the way two people get along with each other depends a lot on the way they interact when they first meet, and this pattern is very easy to solidify. Once you start off on the low side, it becomes much harder to regain a strong position in the future than to take the high ground by assuming a strong posture at the beginning.

Bai Duanduan took a deep breath, remembering the old hatred and the new hatred in the café, and decided to let Ji Lin know that she was not to be trifled with, and to establish her overwhelming superiority beforehand, “I am a person who never backs down, only others give way to me. In my dictionary, there is no such thing as me giving way to others.” She looked at Ji Lin, “So I suggest you, get out of the way.”

Faced with her provocation, Ji Lin still looked calm, he didn’t say anything, he just looked up at the small building behind Bai Duanduan, then he withdrew his gaze and looked at Bai Duanduan again.

“You still have fifteen seconds to get out of the way.” Ji Lin said while looking at his wristwatch and starting to count down, “Fifteen, fourteen, thirteen ……”

Bai Duanduan simply laughed angrily “Don’t say fifteen seconds, even if it is fifteen minutes. I will not give way, not even to death. This is my attitude. Whether it is a road or a case, don’t think I will give it to you, and you even dare set a countdown for me? I have never in my life…..”

It was a pity that Bai Duanduan didn’t get to finish her words of bravado.

Ji Lin gave her a pitying look, “Three, two, one.”

Almost the moment Ji Lin’s words fell, a bucket full of cold water poured from the sky, as if aiming only at Bai Duanduan, splashed onto her body. Almost the moment the water splashed over, Ji Lin took two steps backwards, to avoid the watery disaster.

The sudden splash of cold water was accompanied by the sound of someone forcibly pulling down the window in one of the upper floors behind Bai Duanduan.

It was illegal to drop objects from high altitude, and it was unethical to splash water at others ! ! !

Bai Duanduan was dripping with water from head to toe. She stared at Ji Lin, who had perfectly dodged in front of her. He frowned torpidly and checked if his trouser legs had been splashed. After confirming that there was no spill stain, the man finally showed her a merciful look.

Bai Duanduan was almost shocked, “You just saw someone in the small building behind me opening a window and preparing to splash water down, didn’t you? Why didn’t you warn me?”

“I told you to get out of the way.” Ji Lin’s appearance was still handsome and extraordinary, but today in the eyes of Bai Duanduan, he is only shabby. He thought about it, and added, “I also gave you the countdown.”

“Can’t you speak in full? Are you a human being?!”

Bai Duanduan thought that Ji Lin would at least be somewhat ashamed in the face of her soul-torturing question, yet the man’s face was so good-looking that the thickness of his cheek was apparently as exceptional as his face, “I’m not obliged to explain myself clearly to you, and I don’t want to waste time talking to you a lot. As for your second question ……”

Ji Lin thought about it and made a very strict and attentive answer, “In terms of physiological structure, I am a human; but in terms of the social definition that most people give me, I am no less than a devil.”

“……”

You’re such a tart! You are really the devil!

“I’m going to dump the trash, now you can get out of the way.” Ji Lin pursed his lips and took another look at the drenched Bai Duanduan, his eyes finally took on a bit of sympathy that normal humans should have, “You’d better hurry up and go back and take a shower.”

Just when Bai Duanduan thought that he had finally regained his humanity and was about to say a few words of comfort, she heard Ji Lin continue in a light-hearted manner –

“After all, what they threw at you was probably footwash water.”

Shut the fuck up, you devil !!!

_____________

In the end, Ji Lin daintily crossed over and went to take out the garbage. He was just there to take out the rubbish, but he made such a showy appearance as if he was going to ascend the throne.

All of this set Bai Duanduan even more desolate. She went home like a beaten up drenched dog, took a bath and sneezed three times in a row. She had a bad premonition.

The next morning, this bad premonition came true, and she had a complete cold.

But this was far from the most unfortunate. When she arrived at the office, Xu Zhixin was already waiting at the door with an anxious look on his face, “Lawyer Bai, Jin Guang Electronics has applied to the court for the revocation of the award, and I received the court’s notice of hearing…”

Xu Zhixin looked apprehensive, “I heard that the lawyer they hired is very powerful. I…..I had three consecutive sick leave slips before. Later, in order not to have consecutive numbers, I asked a doctor to help me make up a new one. Will it be found out?”

“No, it is very difficult to check. As long as your three sick leave slips are not consecutively numbered, it is difficult for companies to obtain evidence to prove when these three slips were issued. As long as the sick leave slips are genuine, the court generally determines that the date of signing shall prevail. Even if you apply for writing time appraisal, the current appraisal technology can only be accurate to within a month, and in your three slips, because of the consecutive numbers, two slips were made up, those two slips were originally only within a month from now, and the time difference between the two slips was only two weeks, there is no problem at all.” Bai Duanduan comforted Xu Zhixin, “You really fell and broke your leg, and the chain of evidence is complete. Don’t worry. Since Jin Guang Electronics wants to sue, we will accompany you to the end of it.”

“You can put all the materials and the notice of hearing sent by the court here. I’ll see it later.”

Xu Zhixin responded, and finally felt a little more at ease.

Just as Bai Duanduan was about to see Xu Zhixin out of the law firm, she received an unfamiliar phone call.

The person who had asked for her number long ago had now finally contacted her.

“This is Ji Lin.” The other party’s voice was cold, then the words that came out made Bai Duanduan freeze, “I want to meet with you.”

In the past, you ignored me, but now you can’t afford me!

Bai Duanduan smiled haughtily, “I have received your sincerity to apologize, but a meeting is not necessary, I don’t want to see you anymore.”

There was a pause at the other end of the phone before Ji Lin’s cold and sensual voice came again “I want to meet you just to let your client and my client discuss a settlement plan. Regarding Xu Zhixin’s case, on behalf of Jin Guang  Electronics, I want to settle the case, and if possible, I’ll take a step back. There is no need to go through the process of reversing the ruling to waste each other’s time.”

“……”

Bai Duanduan hurriedly opened Xu Zhixin’s indictment with one hand. Not surprisingly, the agent column of Jin Guang  Electronics impressively showed Ji Lin.

Ji Lin! Ji Lin! Ji Lin again?!

Was this man poisonous? Why was it him again! The next case was again, why was this case also against him?

“Mediation Room 1, Western Suburban District Court, 3pm.”

After reporting the time and place, Ji Lin didn’t give her time to respond and he hung up the phone without any manners.

Bai Duanduan  was fuming with anger and more anger but work still needs to be done. Although Ji Lin was a weird man, it has to be said that his decision to reconcile was really good.

Bai Duanduan almost immediately conveyed this information to Xu Zhixin, who froze and was also somewhat delighted, ” I can slightly back off a little compensation, I am willing to settle.”

With such an instant agreement, it seems that she had to meet with Ji Lin today.

In the future, if Ji Lin started a fight with Duanduan, she would start to cook, so no matter how righteous Ji Lin was, he would just speechlessly take out his phone and order takeout.

Lawyer Bai’s first move to subdue her husband: cook twice if one meal doesn’t work, ha ha ha ha ha..
