Chapter 44: Chapter 19.2 “Yeah, I dare, I’m quitting now, go fck yourself.”

Ji Lin didn’t even care about the hint on Bai Duanduan’s face that she was willing to shake hands and establish a diplomatic relationship. He took out his phone and said very naturally, “I have sent you the specific purchase document of the suit that was scratched just now along with the accounts receivable bill. You can raise any questions if you have.”

Bai Duanduan only felt that her temples were swelling again. She clicked on WeChat to take a look and exploded immediately–

“Hey? No, Ji Lin, you’re not being fair, are you? This time you only damaged a suit top, but now you’re asking me to pay for the full suit set? You’re not extorting me, are you?”

“You know it’s a suit set too? If the suit is torn, what will I wear with my trousers?”

Bai Duanduan argued for reasons, “Don’t you have a suit of the same color? Your suit is all black. You can easily pair a black suit with black trousers! You are now relying on me to pay for your suit, and after that you’ll not only have an extra suit set, but you can still wear your previous trousers!”

Ji Lin pondered for a moment before he whispered, “What you said makes sense.”

When Bai Duanduan saw that her words had worked, she was finally relieved that the money she had to pay out would be cut in half….As a result, before her nerves had completely relaxed, she heard him rightfully say again-

“To show fairness, after you pay the money, I will give you all my pair of trousers to prove that I did not continue to use these pants after claiming compensation for my full suit set.” He smiled faintly at Bai Duanduan,”I don’t wear mismatched clothes.”

? ? ?

Ji Lin, I’m afraid, you’re sick in the head!

I fking …… don’t need your trousers!!! I’m a woman, what would I do with a pair of trousers that cover the lower half of a man’s body? The mere fact of being heard by the people who don’t know the truth makes one’s little face yellow!

Bai Duanduan fought back her feeling of getting a heart attack and tried to check the bill again and she did find an incorrect amount, “What’s with the 30 yuan? Why should I inexplicably give you 30 yuan in addition to the money for your suit?”

“Oh, at 8:12 on the evening of July 8th, you splashed juice on my shirt at ‘Liquor Point 30’. This 30 yuan is the dry cleaning fee.”

“……”

Between the lightning and the fire, Bai Duanduan felt that the truth had finally surfaced. She clearly arranged the whole scene in her mind at that moment.

At that time, Ji Lin asked for her number…

“You asked me for my phone number……”

Noticing Bai Duanduan’s memory was getting more vivid, Ji Lin’s expression became pleasant, “Yes, I asked you for your contact number so that I could send you the dry cleaning bill. But after that, I got busy with the case all of a sudden and eventually got delayed. Especially before I knew you were a neighbour, I considered sending you the bill, but for that, first I had to waste time confirming the address with you and then waste courier fees for sending the bill to you. Calculating my time rate and courier fees and when compared to the 30 yuan dry cleaning fee, it was a loss-making deal for me , so after some thought I decided to forgo it.”

Bai Duanduan had already been beaten by Ji Lin to the point of losing her desire to fight. She gave up on herself and said, “Actually, the courier fee can be saved and you can charge me courier cost along with the dry cleaning cost. Ji Lin, you didn’t think of this move, I’m a little disappointed in you.”

Ji Lin smiled and said, “I always think so carefully, how could I have not thought of it. Well, there is a risk that you will refuse to accept the payment liability, and in that case the bill will be returned to the sender. It would be too much trouble and I still can’t run away from the drying cleaning fee and have to bear the courier fee loss also in addition.”

“……”

You are quite proud of your full 360 degree head to toe stinginess with no dead ends, aren’t you ? ？？

Ji Lin, however, was not moved in the slightest, he smiled and said pleasantly, “But now since we are neighbours, I no longer need to bear the cost of express delivery. It just so happens that now you have an arrear of tens of thousands of yuan to me. Anyway, since I will have to waste time to collect debts, it’s better to collect 30 together.”

“……”

Ji Lin, your annual income of half a billion dollars was earned by gouging, right ……

At this moment, Bai Duanduan has decided that this man, even though he’s so handsome that it makes people lose their minds, still has to die.

This sudden loss of money could not be compensated. Bai Duanduan was already distressed but after getting struck by Ji Lin’s annual income she was broken into several pieces. She was walking like a corpse when she got on the lift with Ji Lin and then stepped out of the lift to head for home.

As a result, she had just pulled open the door of her house when Ji Lin called out to her again —

“Wait.”

Bai Duanduan turned around, only to see that Ji Lin had changed his previous indifference and had a grin that could barely be called a kind smile on his face.

Could it be that he had found his conscience and wanted to give herself a discount ……

Of course, the next second, Ji Lin called to teach Bai Duanduan what it means to be delusional.

He pursed his lips, “Today is Thursday, the cat should belong to me.”

“……”

“Also, remember to pay back the money quickly. I will calculate the interest according to the bank’s interest rate for the same period. If you haven’t paid it back within one month, there will be another negotiation for late fees.”

“……”

I’ll fck you up, Ji Lin!!!

But as if that wasn’t enough, Ji Lin thoughtfully added, “We’re both lawyers, and I don’t think you would want to end up being sued over a financial civil dispute, would you?”

I’ll give it back! I’ll give it back! Just shut the fck up! If you will keep talking like this, you’re going to p!ss me off to death! You can go to hell and collect your debts!

________________

Bai Duanduan gave the cat to Ji Lin breathlessly. She believes in timely pleasure and living in the present moment, thus she doesn’t have much savings. Before that, she had lended a sum of money to Xu Zhixin. Now, when she looked at her bank card, it was only enough to pay back half of Ji Lin’s suit cost. After paying back half part of the money, she finally returned home and collapsed on the big bed.

The more she thought about the bank balance she had just paid, the angrier she became. The reason was that this time at least Song Lianjun was to blame, and why Song Lianjun misunderstood and hated herself so much? In conclusion, it was all thanks to Du Xinyi.

Now the storm was over, but Bai Duanduan’s heart was still going through ups and downs. Although Song Lianjun’s words were emotional, she has been able to piece together and restore the details of the matter.

Now that this mess has been made, and because of Song Lianjun’s attempt to murder, Bai Duanduan will have to take the time to make a statement next day.

Du Xinyi, it’s Du Xinyi again.

Thinking of the person who started all this mess, Bai Duanduan clenched her fist fiercely.

She promised to her client the outcome of the case, accepted gifts from them, and then misled them to put the blame on herself after the negotiations failed.

She was really good at what she did.

If she could still put up with such things, she would not be called Bai Duanduan.

Until she went to sleep, Bai Duanduan was still furiously thinking about how she would go to the law firm the next day to take care of Du Xinyi. But the next day, before she could do anything, Du Xinyi has already prepared a big gift for her —

“Bai Duanduan, what did you do with this case? The employee representative of our last client went to the Law Society 1 A Law Society is an association of lawyers with a regulatory role that includes the right to supervise the training, qualifications, and conduct of lawyers. to report you for soliciting and accepting money in private and colluding with the other party’s lawyer?”

Song Lianjun probably had a really deep hatred for Bai Duanduan under Du Xinyi’s misleading guidance. He might had already reported her to the Law Society before committing the murder.

Early in the morning, when Bai Duanduan arrived at the ZhaoHui law firm, she was called into the office by Lin Hui. He was holding a document but as soon as she entered his office he slapped down the document and loathed her with a harsh lecture, “How dare you? If you are not satisfied with your share, you could have talked to me first. Why did you ask your client for money in private? Fine, even if you do ask for it, you have to do it so that your client is willing to do so! At least make sure they don’t report you!”

Lin Hui was obviously very angry, “In all the time since we were founded, when have we ever reached out and asked a client for extra money in private?” As he said that, he took out his wallet and started to take out money, “How much do you need? I’ll give you 500, is that enough? 1000, is that all you need? Are you buying your luxuries so much that you don’t even care about your basic principles? I brought you up with my own hands, and now that something like this has happened, shouldn’t I also reflect on myself?”

Bai Duanduan had been holding her temper already. She came to the office with a rage to tell Lin Hui a good story about Du Xinyi, but instead she was greeted by Lin Hui’s trustless scolding.

Naturally, she could have explained, but as Bai Duanduan stared at the ugly animal sculpture on Lin Hui’s desk, she felt nothing but chills.

Bai Duanduan was a feisty person. She rarely ever uses the word “forget it” in her vocabulary but now, she just wants to forget it.

Forget it, Lin Hui didn’t conduct any investigations at all in the first place. He even failed to listen to her standpoint in this matter. He did not spend even ten minutes communicating with her, and already had preconceived the opinion on the basis of some one sided complaint report that she had indeed done something like that.

Once the foundation of trust was cracked, all the explanation in the world was only pale.

However, Bai Duanduan was silent, but Lin Hui interpreted her silence as her acquiescence as he angrily threw a handful of RMB at Bai Duanduan, “Let’s forget about this time, I’ll operate on the side of the Law Society and the charges should be all done with. But I don’t want this kind of thing to happen a second time …… “

“Operate? But I’m not wrong, why should you operate? You should let the Law Society come over and investigate and find out clearly who at ZhaoHui is actually taking money from our clients in private. Don’t you like marketing? This is not a bad move, it’s enough to make ZhaoHui ‘famous’ in the whole A city legal circle!”

Lin Hui couldn’t hold in his anger, “Bai Duanduan, how many times have I told you to calm down your temper! Can’t you learn more from Du Xinyi? Fine, you still don’t admit your mistake now, do you? You still feel so righteous? Do you think a four thousand credit worth of shopping card is a trivial matter?”

All right, so it comes down to it. In his eyes, Du Xinyi was naturally right. The one who was wrong was herself, and the one who has received all the money privately must also be herself.
