Chapter 26 (2/2)

“It’s fine. I called to ask if Attorney Jin is free tomorrow…”

“…”

He did not reply, which made the other party think that he was putting on airs.

“Attorney Jin, as long as you help me to win this divorce case, I can pay you several times over for the legal fees…”

Jin Hengyuan smiled faintly.

How was this an issue of legal fees?

The crux of this matter was… He couldn’t help his love rival regain his freedom for a few measly bucks and then come to snatch his own wife, okay!

“This isn’t about the money,” he spoke lowly. “It’s mainly because I’ll be a little busy in the near future. If you’re in a hurry, I definitely won’t be able to help you right away. If you’re not in a hurry, let’s meet next Thursday. We’ll discuss it in detail then. If I can help you, I’ll do my best… After all, you were introduced to me by my teacher…”

The underlying meaning of this sentence was: It was difficult for him to refuse to repay his teacher’s kindness. The reason behind his tactful rejection was obscure. Then, he hung up.

On the other end of the phone, Su Mubai was sitting in front of his desk with a frown. They were all smart people, so how could he not understand what Jin Hengyuan meant?

Because it was on speaker mode, his childhood friend, Sheng Lou, heard it by the side too.

“D*mn it, this Jin guy sure knows how to put on airs. You’ve already said that you would double the legal fees, yet he still…”

He slammed the table and shouted angrily.

Sitting opposite him was Su Mubai’s assistant, Ah Hu. “Before we found him, I had already heard that he was this willful when it came to taking on cases.”

After a pause, he continued, “Speaking of which, when he first entered this industry, he took on all sorts of cases and most of them were divorce cases. Later on, as he got more and more successful in this industry, his appetite kept growing. He rarely takes on ordinary civil cases personally now. He only takes on high-end business lawsuits such as financial, foreign affairs, international trade, intellectual property rights, and even a few criminal cases. Sigh. Since he got famous, his arrogance grew too. After all, he has never been defeated. That is his ability.”
