Xu Jianran paused a little. Thinking of Xi Xiu's words, he looked at Tang Yinning and said solemnly, "A friend of yours told me. You don't have to worry about the cost of the lawsuit."

"My friend?" Tang Yinning was stunned. She thought in her mind, "When do I have such a badass friend?"

Although Tang Yinning was beautiful and had a good personality, she had been with Chen Pojun all these years and stayed in the house almost every day. She gradually lost contact with the classmates and friends in the university. The only best friend was Du Ruoshui. They were born in the same hospital and their friendship was not something to be easily given up on.

"Yes, but for the privacy of my guest, I can't reveal more." Xu Jianran nodded. In fact, Xi Xiu didn't say that he couldn't reveal his identity, nor did the company's rules say anything about keeping the customer's identity in secret, but he just wanted to know what the relationship was between Xi Xiu and this person Xi Xiu cared about.

Tang Yinning nodded in disappointment. "I understand."

Du Ruoshui went to the bathroom and got a cup of drip coffee to drink. By the time she pushed the door open and went in, Tang Yinning had finished talking.

Walking out of the Aosi Building and getting into the car, Du Ruoshui couldn't help but ask, "How was it?"

"He said it would take a day or two to extract the information from the chip in the phone. He suggested that I collect more evidence these two days. Now that I'm still in a marriage relationship, as long as I take a picture of him living with that mistress, it will be bigamy." Tang Yinning recalled what Xu Jianran had said and repeated.

"Okay, anyway, I've already handed in my manuscript. I'll take photos with you in the next few days!" Du Ruoshui clenched her fists and nodded before saying, "I'll buy you a cell phone first as my gift for you to celebrate your impending liberation."

"Ruoshui." When Tang Yinning heard her say that, she couldn't help but feel very much moved.

"Oh, well, we are best friends. Let's go. Let me buy you a cell phone, and treat you to dinner!" Du Ruoshui knew that Tang Yinning was very grateful to her. She reached out and poked her little face. Then she held the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator to drive towards the phone store.

Xu Jianran sent Tang Yinning away and immediately called Xi Xiu to report the progress.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Xi Xiu replied with satisfaction. "After winning the lawsuit, I will bid for Jiahua Law Firm shares at the end of the year."

This was undoubtedly a good thing for Xu Jianran. Since work, he had never lost a lawsuit, let alone such an easy one. He held back his excitement and said, "Thank you very much. Xiu, you've been back for a while. I'll treat you to dinner when you're free."

"After the lawsuit, I'll treat you." Xi Xiu thought for a moment and then declined politely.

Xu Jianran was used to his cold temper and character. As soon as Xu Jianran siad yes, Xi Xiu hung up.

"Rich people, weird character." Xu Jianran sighed and smiled resignedly.

Although Jiahua Law Firm was now one of the best law firms in Yunjing City, there was still a lot of competitive pressure in the country. If he wanted to reach out to foreign companies, he needed some capital to prepare and recruit talents. So the board of directors of the Jiahua Law Firm agreed that a bid would be held at the end of the year to sell 10 % of its shares. This was not a small sum.

If the Huayun Group could participate, it would be like the Jiahua Law Firm with might doubled, and the company would also send the best lawyers to serve as business consultants for Huayun.

However, a listed company like Humayun Group might not lack corporate consultants. Xu Jianran was immersed in his own thoughts.

Xi Xiu knew that Tang Yinning had left and now he wanted to see her. Although they had only been apart for a few hours, he had already begun to miss her.

"Boss Xi, Boss Chen of the Shengyang Company is here." Soong Hui knocked on the door and came in with permission.

"Wait for me in the reception room." Xi Xiu nodded and picked up a document without any intention of going out to see his guests.

Soong Hui answered, then turned around and closed the door to go out. He personally went to receive Chen Pojun and tell him to rest in the reception room.

Chen Pojun was already very excited when he received a call from Soong Hui this morning. If the Shengyang Company could cooperate with the Huayun group, it wouldn't matter if the quoted price would double in the future. Then the profit would double again. He didn't want to miss the opportunity to make a lot of money at all.

"Secretary Soong, when will Boss Xi come over?" Chen Pojun drank a cup of coffee and looked at his watch. The minute hand had already pointed to six. Half an hour later, he did not see Xi Xiu at all, which made him a little impatient.

Soong Hui smiled and said, "Boss Chen, please wait a moment. Boss Xi may need to hold a cross-ocean meeting."

Chen Pojun could only nod and say, "I see. I'll wait."

The time was slipping away, and it was almost three o'clock in the blink of an eye. Chen Pojun couldn't help but get a little angry that he hadn't seen Xi Xiu come out of the office.

People doing business paid the most attention to the concept of time. It was because Huayun Group was a big group that he was willing to wait for half an hour, but the passed time consumed his patience.

"Secretary Soong, what do you mean? If the Huayun Group has no intention of cooperating, you can just say it." Chen Pojun put the coffee in his hand heavily on the table and said to Soong Hui unhappily.

Soong Hui looked at Chen Pojun who was not happy. He thought to himself, he didn't think much of your Shengyang Company at all. And you really thought that you were such a big company, but you were at most a shrimp in front of the Huayun Group!

Thinking to himself like that, Soong Hui still smiled and said, "Don't worry. I'll call Boss Xi for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the door of the office being pushed open. Xi Xiu came out with a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of disdain. He had a strong aura that made people not dare to look him in the eye.

"Hello, Boss Xi. I'm Chen Pojun, the general manager of Shengyang Company. It's my pleasure to finally meet you." Knowing that he was being rude, Chen Pojun quickly stood up and walked towards Xi Xiu, reaching out a hand to greet him.

Xi Xiu just nodded lightly. "You're welcome. Let's sit down and talk."

Both of them were dressed in black suits, but one could tell the difference at a glance. In front of Xi Xiu, Chen Pojun was dwarfed.

Chen Pojun awkwardly withdrew his hand and sat down behind Xi Xiu. He took out a very simplified document and handed it to Xi Xiu before saying, "Boss Xi, this is our company's average price and the best discount we can offer. There are also some party B that we usually cooperate with. They are all mid-level."

"I'll see for myself." Xi Xiu raised his hand and waved, interrupting Chen Pojun's words, obviously feeling that he was a little noisy.

Chen Pojun had to be humble under such a situation. Chen Pojun clenched his hand and managed to calm down. He smiled and said, "Okay, Boss Xi, take your time."
