Her tears began to fall; the crystal clear tears were overflowing.

Xu Fengnian soon caught up and walked to beside her. He wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to. He could only take out some tissues and hand it to Zhao Zilin.

Zhao Zilin in this moment was a vulnerable girl, her distraught appearance was hard to connect to the girl who was just so confident and ruthless a few minutes ago.

Looking at Zhao Zilin, who was crying, Xu Fengnian felt saddened he couldn't help but think of his daughter.

A few moments later Zhao Zilin seemingly calming down, slowly turned her watery eyes and looked up at Xu Fengnian, then looked away to wipe the tears on her face.

Putting on a mocking smile, she said: "I've embarra.s.sed myself in front of Mr Xu, I'm sorry for...."

Xu Fengnian quickly waved a dismissive hand, signalling her to stop he smiled and said: "There's no need to apologise in fact I should be thanking you. The performance of Lawyer Zhao today was outstanding you have to know Lawyer Wu and Chen are famous domestic lawyers but they weren't even able to argue back. Your future is bound to be limitless don't be brought down by a few words!"

Zhao Zilin smiled modestly, and her pale face gradually began to gain some colour.

"Thank you for the praise."

After chatting with Xu Fengnian for a while, Zhao Zilin's mood gradually turned better. Unconsciously, she threw away all the unhappy memories in her mind. Her face was filled with the joy of victory.

Zhao Zilin took out the cheque and handed it to Xu Fengnian. She smiled and said: "Please tell Mr. Du that the matter has been resolved. If there is a need in the future, he can always find me."

Xu Fengnian nodded and glanced at the time and found that it was almost noon, feeling hungry he sentimentally invited: "How about a meal before we part Lawyer Zhao."

Zhao Zilin shook her head with a smile and refused: "Manager Xu doesn't have to be so polite, I have to hurry back to work. If your company needs to solve any legal problems in the future, please do contact our firm again."

"Will do, well then I will head off first then." said Xu Fengnian before heading off.

....

Returning back to the company, Xu Fengnian went directly into Zhang Xiaohua's office.

At this time, Zhang Xiaohua was busy playing computer games.

Seeing Xu Fengnian, he quickly quit the game and asked urgently: "How was it, is it done?"

Xu Fengnian took out the one-million-yuan cheque and placed it in front of Zhang Xiaohua.

Seeing this Zhang Xiaohua slammed the table in frustration and said: "Dammit!"

Xu Fengnian laughed and said nothing then took out the compensation of 185,000 yuan and placed it in front of Zhang Xiaohua.

Zhang Xiaohua squinted and then looked up at Xu Fengnian and said: "What is the meaning of this?"

Xu Fengnian smiled smugly and said with exultation: "Things have been smoothly settled. From now on, Du Chengyi can sign with our company."

Zhang Xiaohua frowned even more confused. He looked down at the one-million-yuan bank cheque and asked: "What does this mean? New Century cancelled the contract for free?"

"Hahaha no but we had a very capable lawyer and under her savage attacks they gave in and even payed us." Xu Fengnian said with joy.

Zhang Xiaohua frowned with frustration: "Uncle Xu can you explain clearly please? I'm dying from anxiety over here."

Xu Fengnian sat down and explained to Zhang Xiaohua.

Listening, Zhang Xiaohua was shocked.

Then he broke into overjoyed laughter.

After a moment of laughter, he took the one-million-yuan cheque and said: "It seems we owe her one."

Xu Fengnian nodded and smiled in agreeance.

"Uncle Xu, I'll have to trouble you, to transfer 50,000 yuan to her as a bonus." Zhang Xiaohua said seriously.

Xu Fengnian nodded his head in understanding and stood up about to leave the office, then he turned back at the last second and asked: "Xiao-Hua, did you have some sort of misunderstanding with Miss Zhao? And how is it related to Cao Feifei?"

Zhang Xiaohua froze then said: "Why do you ask?"

"Nothing, it's just at New Century, Cao Feifei said some inexplicable words..." Xu Fengnian recalled the scene at the time and explained it to Zhang Xiaohua.

In Xu Fengnian's view, perhaps Zhang Xiaohua had hurt Zhao Zilin before and he forgot.

But after all, they were young so it was normal to have some misunderstandings. He hoped to find the source of the misunderstanding and resolve it.

Zhao Zilin was a talented lawyer, if they could get her on board it would be great.

Zhang Xiaohua was lost in his thoughts, he prayed with all his might that the situation wasn't as he was imagining. He couldn't help but mutter to himself: "What happened on that night?"

Zhang Xiaohua quickly focused his mind and said changing the conversation and smiled: "Uncle Xu, don't forget to send the bonus to Zhao Zilin and send our praise as well to the firm...."
