Chapter 284 - Drinking buddies. (2/2)
Somehow, when he said that, Lena could feel that he was a bit sad from that. What was it? Was it miss opportunities that he missed in the past?
Lena and Ming just casually chatted about what has been going on lately in each other's lives. Lena drank a lot but not enough to be wasted.
As Kris proposed, Lay did come to pick Lena up. Lay made sure Lena made it home safely before going home himself. He made sure to report to Kris that he did a good job.
Lena took a quick shower, texted Kris goodnight, and then went to bed. Tomorrow was going to be a fun day.

When Lena went to work the next morning, reporters were blocking the entrance of the company. Lena had already prepared extra security to ensure that her workers and the work environment remained a safe place.
James got out of the car and opened the door for Lena. As she got out, the reporters tried to get a statement from her.
”Miss. Shen, as the CEO of SHYNE, are you going to take responsibility for the duplication scandal?”
”Last night, the artist Mikayla went live to speak about how your company stole her designs, do you have any comment on that, Miss. Shen?”
”Is it true that instead of taking responsibility, you went out to have fun yesterday night?”
Lena walked past everyone but then stopped at the front of the entrance.
”SHYNE did not steal anyone's design. Is any company or person believe that we did, we'll be waiting for a lawsuit and settle this the legal way. ” Lena spoke and then turned around to enter the company.
The reporters mumbled to each other and started to contact Mikayla's team to see if they would be issuing a legal lawsuit against SHYNE.
Just as Lena arrived at her office, Mikayla already posted on her Weibo that she will be contacting her lawyer and suing SHYNE for copying her designs.
Lena looked at her phone and laugh. ”Daine.” She called for her secretary.
”Yes?”
”If their lawyer shows up, I don't want to speak to them. Give them the contact of the lawyers.”
”I'll be sure to do that.” Diane excused herself.
Around noon that day, as expected, Mikayla's legal team contacted SHYNE. They showed up at the company requesting to speak with Lena but they were directed to her lawyers instead.
Instead, they went outside and complained to the reporters, saying that Lena Shen was refusing to cooperate with them.
”Miss. Long, will you be taking lead for the Mikayla?” A reporter asked.
”Yes. Mikayla is a small artist just making her career big and then she was pushed by bigger corporations.” Nina Long replied.
”Are you no afraid to go against the SHEN industry?”
”No. It's not fear that drives us, lawyers, it's justice and correcting what is right.”
Lena laughed at the television screen as she watched Nina try to make herself like a good lawyer. How unexpected, she was drawing only one cockroach and landed with two! She must be very blessed.
”Miss. Shen is still refusing to meet with my team regarding the situation. However, we will still pursue this case and make sure that the artist Mikayla gets her rights and compensation for the damages they have done to her.”
Just as the reporters were going to ask more questions to Nina, three men stepped out of a black car.
”Refusing?”
The reporters all turned around and gasped. Isn't... that the famous Lawyer Hu and next to him is the young American Lawyer that made it big at such a young age. What was even more shocking that even the head lawyer from the Zhao corporation was there.
They thought that the Zhao silently removed from interfering with the case, but why was their lawyer here? Was there information incorrect?
”Seems like Lawyer Long is rejecting my client's privacy. As far as I know, she doesn't have to speak to you without a lawyer present. Lawyer 101, didn't you learn that in school?” Milo Hu spoke loudly in the crowd.
