C71 (2/2)
Chu Yu had been chosen to study outside. At that time, Rui Ni would be even more excited than she was, talking non-stop on the phone and not noticing anything strange about Chu Yu.
”Should... Next week... ”There are still some matters at home …” Chu Yu played with the pendant on his phone, and asked softly.
He just gave his information to Chu Jingnian today. He promised to settle the matter of the lawsuit for her, so when she hands it over to him, he reckoned that she would be able to return home.
After talking for a while longer, Rui Ni reluctantly hung up the phone, and the ambiguous atmosphere in the car had completely dissipated. Chu Yu hung up the phone and sat in a daze, no one knew when she moved the chair back, but her back was stiff against the leather chair.
”Then, I'll go up first.” Chu Yu tried to break the silent atmosphere inside, but he quickly opened the door and got out, not daring to look back at Xiang Qicheng.
His eyes were too deep, and if he looked at her, she would sink into them.
It wasn't until she was in the corridor that she relaxed a little. She looked down through the small window in the corridor and saw that Maybach had turned off the engine and was still there. It took her several minutes to start the engine and drive away.
Early morning of the second day, Chu Yu left his house and rushed to the agreed location.
After returning home last night, he had received Chu Jingnian's message that he would help him arrange a meeting with a lawyer at the coffee shop below the central plaza. Chu Jingnian needed to understand the situation in detail.
He went out early but was stuck in a traffic jam. By the time he got to the central square, it was already past 9 in the morning.
Pushing open the coffee shop's door, because it was in the morning and there were not many people in the shop, she immediately saw Chu Jingnian, who was sitting beside a big window, accompanied by a refined man wearing glasses.
”Sorry, there's a traffic jam.” Chu Yu sat down apologetically. Her new rented house was in the suburbs, and it would take her more than half an hour to get here. It just so happened to be a weekend today, so it had taken her a whole half an hour more than usual.
Chu Jingnian introduced him with a gentle smile: ”It's fine, we just arrived not too long ago as well. Chu Yu, what counsel is this? ”
The man at the side greeted her with a faint smile and nodded his head. He placed his hand on the glass table and placed it on top of a file, giving off a clean aura from head to toe.
”Hello Lawyer He, I'll be troubling you with this case. Dad and I don't know anything about this at all. If there's anything else we need to provide, we'll definitely do our best to find and submit it to you!” Chu Yu smiled sweetly and handed over the document in her hand.
The man sitting opposite to Chu Yu nodded and opened the folder that Chu Yu handed to him, took a glance at it and then put it into the pouch together. He then said calmly: ”Miss Chu, it's like this, in general this case is rather complicated, after all we do not have the most direct evidence to prove that your stepmother cheated the property rights to this house, the judge only thinks that it's a valid contract.”
Chu Yu was a little nervous in his heart: ”Does that mean we need to find sufficient evidence?”
An Ya was such a sinister person, he definitely would not leave any traces behind when he does things. Furthermore, his father did not sign his name out of threat, which made things even more difficult.
Lawyer He nodded and pushed his glasses. ”Theoretically, yes. But if you can provide audio or photos and the like …” Lawyer He paused in the middle of his speech as he looked at Chu Yu thoughtfully.
There were some hints that could only be clicked upon, and whether or not one could comprehend them depended on the other party.
”Audio?” Chu Yu repeated herself, her eyes filled with worry, when suddenly, her mind flashed, she remembered something important, something that could help in the entire case.
