64 Tricked but Not Tricked (2/2)

Liu Wei returned to his work but every once in a while he'll find himself glancing at the small parlour.

She was sitting discreetly on the cushion fondling with her phone, he felt the urge to ask her if she needed something to drink but he stopped himself.

Given her previous attitude in America, she might feel he was overindulging. So he kept it to himself and concentrated on his work.

After about an hour or two, a knock was heard again. Liu Wei told the person to come in, then glanced at Liling only to realize that she had dozed off on the cushion, her phone had already fallen from her hands.

He chuckled lightly and walked towards her, squatting down, he picked up her phone from the floor then gently tapped her.

Liling gradually opened her heavy eyes when he shook her lightly. She stood up immediately, extremely surprised to see him in front of her.

It took her sometime to realize that she had been sleeping, she immediately apologized.

”Mr Liu Wei, I'm sorry..”

Liling apologized embarrassedly as she rubbed her drowsy eyes. Liu Wei stood up and handed over her phone.

He didn't utter a word, just casually walked back to his seat. The attorney who was already waiting for both of them was flipping through a document.

Liling who had quietly followed behind Liu Wei silently sat down and looked over at him.

”This is it, check if there are any mistakes ”

The attorney handed over the document to Liu Wei who looked through it and signed on the last page the portion apportioned to him.

He handed the document over to Liling who took it carefully.

She had wanted to read through it but the writing was extremely tiny, she just read the boldly written words on the top, turned to the last page and signed.

Liu Wei took the contract from her and walked over to a photocopying machine by his table and made three photocopies.

He gave the original to the attorney, Liling had one to herself and he, the last one.

After a brief talk with Liu Wei, the attorney left his office.

”Did you read through the contract before signing? ”

Liu Wei asked after the attorney had left.

Liling looked up in surprise, was there any need to read the contract?

He had already said what she would do, was there something different in the contract?

Liling became apprehensive, she shook her head and immediately picked the abandoned document on her laps and went through it carefully.

”Mr Liu Wei!, two years?. Isn't it too much? I wouldn't even earn a dime!
