The bouquet of perfume lilies looks very fresh. The petals do not have any yellowing or curling, and are still stained with dew, as if they had just been picked.

Just put it quietly on Shen Nian's desk.

The sunlight scattered like broken gold and fell on the petals. The pure white petals seemed to be coated with a layer of gold, glowing with a faint halo.

Shen Nian looked at the bouquet of flowers, slightly lost in thought.

Strangely enough, she almost immediately guessed who sent this bouquet of flowers.

Although Qi Shengwen also gave her flowers, and it was most likely that it was Qi Shengwen, Shen Nian's intuition told her immediately that the person who gave her this bouquet of flowers was Ji Yanli.

It was the lily he saw last time in his car.

Shen Nian didn't expect that the quarterly banquet gift had just been given to Zhou Xiaojing, and now it was being given to herself again.

She frowned slightly, but she couldn't tell what she was feeling.

disappointment? sad? It doesn't seem like she has, she seems to have been used to such moments.

As if to confirm her suspicion, next to the bouquet on the desk, there was a small card with gold foil sprinkled on it, shining brightly in the sun.

The words on the card are made of thin gold, with silver hooks and iron paintings, which are strong enough to penetrate the back of the paper.

Shen Nian recognized that this was the handwriting of Ji Banli.

I saw the card saying:

A gift to Shen Nian.

Just three words.

Shen Nian looked at the thin card and suddenly made a "poof" sound and laughed softly.

She thought helplessly:

This person of the Quarterly Banquet is really...

When I send flowers to girls, I don’t even know how to write love words.

Even if you just write a four-word blessing, such as peace every year or good luck in everything, that's fine.

But Shen Nian vaguely felt in her heart that if Ji Yanli was really like this, then Ji Yanli would not be the Ji Yanli she knew.

Sometimes, people are really contradictory creatures.

A thought suddenly flashed across Chen Nian's mind, catching him off guard.

——A few days ago, was it the same when he gave Zhou Xiaojing perfume lily?

——Should I write down my blessings seriously, or just a few words: Give it to Zhou Xiaojing?

I'm afraid...it's the latter.

Shen Nian is not very confident about the quarterly banquet ceremony.

These thoughts flashed through Shen Nian's mind like meteors.

Suddenly, it was as if there was a pair of invisible big hands covering Shen Nian's heart, and for a moment, it held her so tightly that she couldn't breathe.

Shen Nian just let those hands grab her whole heart.

And she herself just looked at the bunch of perfume flowers on the table in silence.

The dew on the lilies is still so crystal clear, and the fine gold foil on the small card is still the same, glowing golden in the sun.

But Shen Nian suddenly felt that something was different.

She just looked at the bouquet of lilies quietly, until the remaining heat in her eyes cooled down a little, and then she sighed.

Shen Nian took the bouquet of lilies aside, then sat back at his desk and started his afternoon work.

But for some reason, Shen Nian couldn't concentrate all afternoon.

After get off work, many lawyers from Heshan Firm came over and asked Shen Nian insinuating questions about her husband's quarterly banquet.

"Lawyer Shen, Lawyer Shen, is that handsome guy really your husband?"

"What handsome guy? I think that's the boss."

"His suit looks high-end, right? One suit costs hundreds of thousands."

"What? Hundreds of thousands of dollars for one piece of clothing? I don't know..."

"Stop arguing. I've met that man. He is the majority shareholder of our Heshan."

"So Lawyer Shen is the shareholder's wife?"

Shen Nian: "..."

She pretended not to hear and walked through the crowd, but the crowd seemed not to let her go.

A group of lawyers from Heshan Firm chased him and asked.

"Lawyer Shen, Lawyer Shen, is that boss really your husband?"

Shen Nian was pressed by the question and could only nod helplessly.

Suddenly, a look of envy and disbelief surrounded Shen Nian.

"Lawyer Shen, you... Hey, Lawyer Shen, wait a minute and don't run away!"

Before the other party finished saying the word "male", Shen Nian had already picked up his bag and left the Heshan Office as if he was running away.

She stopped a taxi and gave the address of the Yu family's old home.

Taxis were flowing smoothly along the way.

Shen Nian watched the cars passing by quickly outside the car window, remembering the "grand occasion" when he was gossiped about during the day, and secretly made up his mind to resign from Heshan Office in a few days.

This law firm has received the quarterly banquet and cannot take it anymore.

With the quarterly banquet like this, I can hardly work anymore at Heshan Office.

Moreover, she has not forgotten that Ji Yanli is the largest shareholder of Heshan Office.

Shen Nian dragged his chin and silently planned the future direction.

It would be better for me to resign from Heshan Office as soon as possible.

Where to go after leaving Heshan? It's better to go back to school and teach.

However, when Shen Nian went back to work the next day, he quickly received a new case.

This case was not about exonerating a villain like Zhou Ziyang. Shen Nian looked at it with all his heart, almost wholeheartedly.

The whole day passed so quietly.

When Shen Nian came to his senses from a pile of case-related documents, it was already eleven o'clock in the night.

The moon and stars were sparse outside the window, and the evening wind blew the shadows of the trees, making a rustling sound.

Shen Nian raised his head and looked out the window, slightly startled.

I actually spent a whole day like this.

He didn't even notice it during his lunch break.

This point...

I guess I can't get a taxi anymore.

Shen Nian frowned.

Maybe she should ask the Yu family's driver to pick her up.

But at this point, the driver should also be asleep.

Shen Nian knew that the uncle driver had been with his grandfather for many years. His schedule was similar to that of his grandfather, and he went to bed at around ten o'clock in the evening.

She didn't really want to trouble others. After all, it was just a small matter to take her home.

Shen Nian sighed, looked up at the dark sky outside the window, then pushed open the office door and slowly walked to the elevator door.

Sure enough, after waiting outside for nearly twenty minutes, she still didn't get a taxi. In the past twenty minutes, the only taxi passing by was already full of people.

Just as she was thinking about whether to walk home directly, a silver-gray Maybach parked on the side of the road.

Heshan Office is not in the city center, so this place is relatively remote. Especially at this point, there are quite a few people and cars on the road.

Shen Nian was startled for a moment, and then he looked clearly at the man in the driver's seat through the car window and saw his profile.

The moment she saw the man's face clearly in the driver's seat, Shen Nian felt a shock all over.

The man's profile was very sharp, as if carved by a knife. He looked extremely handsome. What was even more outstanding was Zhou Shen's cold and snowy temperament.
