It had been three years since he last saw Professor Jiang. He had forgotten what professor Jiang had been like in the past.
“Alright, give him some face,” Nian Xi said with a smile. “I’m going back soon. Is it necessary to send me supper? You’re so good-looking. What if you get raped when you come out in the middle of the night?”
Jiang Yuning blushed and stammered, “My wife is a police officer, I’m not afraid.”
The corners of Fang Qi’s and Chen Lian’s mouths twitched, especially Chen Lian’s. This was the first time he had seen Jiang Yuning, and he was shocked. He thought to himself, as expected of his boss. As expected of her skillful husband taming skills, what kind of scientist, no matter how powerful he was, he was still as obedient as a kitten in front of his boss.
“Xixi, when did you get married? How come I didn’t know at all?” An Lan walked over with her bag in hand and greeted with a smile. “You didn’t even send an invitation.”
Nian Xi laughed when she saw her. “I’ll definitely call you if I’m going to hold a banquet. After all, I gave you a red packet when you got married. I have to get the red packet back, or else I’ll be at a loss.”
“Forget it. You, young mistress Nian, still lack this little bit of favor money.” An Lan smiled and waved her hand. “When do you plan to hold a banquet?”
“Summer. We just got our marriage certificate yesterday.” Nian Xi winked at her, “How is it? is your married life with Judge Xu fiesty? You guys, a lawyer and a judge, yet you insist on getting married. Aren’t you sworn enemies? Don’t you have a small quarrel every two days and a big quarrel every three days?”
An Lan smiled helplessly. “We never talk about work when we go home. We want to avoid leisure. This is our professional ethics. We’re not sworn enemies, are we? If you want to talk about sworn enemies, we’re the real rivals with the prosecutor.”
Nian Xi sighed, “Anyway, I can’t stand Judge Xu’s serious look. He’s just like the political and educational director when I was in school. Every time I see him in court, I get annoyed. The last time we caught a dying criminal, we finally sent him to court, but the lawsuit failed. We were supposed to go to jail for more than ten years, but in the end, we lost some money and just let it go. Speaking of which, it’s all your fault as lawyers. What’s the point of fighting so many cases? You two are annoying from the inside out.”
An Lan did not think much of it, she smiled regretfully and said, “It can’t be helped. If you lose the case, it can only be said that you don’t have enough evidence. Sometimes, even a judge can’t do anything about it. He knows that the person below is a bad person, and he wants to arrest him, but he has to follow the rules of the law. If he doesn’t follow them, it will be chaotic.”
“Oh, that’s not what you used to say to me. Every time you see me, you have to curse brother Xu once,” Nian Xi joked. “Don’t forget that you were always defeated by him in the past.”
An Lan sighed, “Every profession has its own difficulties. You have to put yourself in his shoes to know. Just like how I’m going to bail Yu Cheng out today, your police officers will probably be annoyed to see Yu Cheng. They will come to the police station once a month, but in my eyes, he is just a child who has never done anything bad.”
“Yu Cheng that kid…” Nian Xi sighed and shook her head. “He was spoiled by his father. By the way, haven’t you ever thought of changing your career to become a prosecutor? You and brother Xu are a perfect match.”
“No, there are prosecutors in this world, so there must be lawyers. I like the feeling of being able to dominate the business world.” An Lan smiled and threw her bag behind her. “I’m not going to talk to you anymore. I’m getting annoyed to talk about your hubby again. Goodbye.”
