At the law firm.
An Lan hung up the phone and looked at the ring on her finger and her heart was filled with sweetness.
In her opinion, laws were not romantic at all. Why did she feel that these human rights were so wonderful today.
After discussing the case with her client that night, the time was still early that It was only past seven. Thinking that Xu Bohan had to work overtime tonight, she decided to drive to his court.
On the way, she bought some night snacks and brought it over.
When she reached the court, only a few lights were still on.
She greeted the concierge and went straight to Xu Bohan’s office. The door was closed and she knocked on it.
“Come in,”Xu Bohan’s low and cold voice sounded.
She opened the door and entered. Xu Bohan did not turn back. He was still writing the verdict on his computer, wearing his glasses and tapping his keyboard loudly. He only replied to the person who came in, “Just help me put the printing paper on the table.”
An Lan walked over and placed the night snack on his left.
Xu Bohan frowned when he saw the snacks. “Su Run, no wonder I didn’t see you. You went to buy the snacks again…”
He turned around and was stunned when he saw An Lan, “You… Why are you here?”
“To deliver the night snacks,”An Lan said with a smile, “I wanted to see you on my way.”
Xu Bohan took off his glasses and a hint of gentleness flashed across his serious eyes when he looked at her. He reached out and pulled her onto his lap, wrapping his arms around her, “This is the first time you’ve taken the initiative to look for me.”
“Mm, I know you’ve worked hard.”An Lan hung her arms around his neck, “Do you want to eat something before you continue working overtime?”
Xu Bohan nodded with hesitation.
An Lan did not buy anything like barbecues. After a few encounters, she could tell that Xu Bohan did not like to eat those things, so she bought some seafoodcongee, crepe pancake, dumplings and some sort.
Men usually had bigger appetites. Xu Bohan finished a bowl of seafood congee in a few seconds, but he gave the prawns to An Lan.
“Don’t give them all to me, you eat them.”An Lan fed him with the prawns.
“I’m full.”Xu Bohan said.
“Open your mouth.”An Lan ordered without further ado.
Xu Bohan had no choice but to open his mouth and eat the prawns. He didn’t know where she bought the congee, but as soon as he ate, he knew that it was definitely made from fresh prawns.
It was just a simple night meal, but it was especially heartwarming.
No matter how busy and tiring one was at work, it was always very satisfying to have someone you liked bring you a bowl of congee.
After eating, Xu Bohan hugged her and kissed her for a while before softly saying, “You should go back first, I don’t know how long I’ll be busy.”
“You don’t want me to accompany you?”An Lan raised her eyebrows.
Xu Bohan shook his head decisively, “Unless… you sleep at my place tonight.”
His place was right next to the courthouse, so it would be convenient for him to return home after work. However, An Lan’s house was too far away, so staying at his place at night was actually a very good decision.
“That’s a good idea, but it’s not realistic.”An Lan glared at him, thinking of something she shouldn’t have thought of, and she was slightly embarrassed.
Xu Bohan smiled as he adjusted his glasses. He didn’t say much, “Go home earlier.”
“Then don’t stay too late.”An Lan knew that it wasn’t good for her to stay. With his personality, he might even send her home after work. When he arrived at home it would be 12pm with the back and forth.
“Okay.”
…
The next day, Xu Bohan was presiding over Zhao Ping’s case.
After an hour and a half of trial, Xu Bohan directly acquitted Yue and released him on the spot.
Just as he was about to leave, Zhao Ping’s father, Zhao Gui, grabbed a chair and rushed towards Xu Bohan, “He killed my son, it’s alright that you didn’t have him arrested, but you even want to release him. How did you handle the trial, you bastard, did you take money from Yue?”
