Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

324 All men are dogs



Today An Xiulan had to visit a penitentiary with her project partner to interview their client. Her case partner had been acting aloof for some reason. She didn’t know what happened to Zhang Yiming to have him behave in such a manner but she tried to not let his attitude get on her nerves.

“I will talk to the client while Miss An will take the notes, ” Zhang Yiming said and An Xiulan agreed. As they entered the room where the client was sitting on the chair with his hands cuffed and they were two empty chairs for them too.

They greeted the client who was arrested on the charges of murdering his wife.

“Miss Cao, will you tell us what happened that day?” Zhang Yiming questioned. However, the client just stared at the wall blankly, not saying a word at all.

​ Zhang Yiming asked the question again but Mr Cao didn’t reply to him.

NL law firm was contacted by Mr Cao’s best friend who felt that the latter had no hands in the murder of the wife and only the false allegations were put against him. Mr Long, their boss had warned them about the uninterested attitude of the client but they didn’t know that it was up to this extent.

“Mr Cao, if you don’t tell us the happenings of that day, how will we proceed with the case?” Zhang Yiming asked.

An Xiulan, who was staring at the laptop, sighed. She raised her gaze and said with a straight face, “Mr Cao, if you don’t want to be saved, just confess that you killed your wife. You are wasting our precious time. You know how many cases we can solve while you waste our time on your silence.”

Zhang Yiming glared at her for being insensitive.

“If someone doesn’t wish to be saved, why would we make efforts to save them? It will get exhausting for both of us and him, ” An Xiulan said as a matter of fact.

They didn’t know what happened but the next moment, Mr Cao grew violent. He grabbed the laptop with his handcuffed hands and banged it against the wall. He looked at the lawyers in utter rage.

The police guards stationed acted immediately and tried to hold the violent person as they were afraid that he would try to hurt them.

An Xiulan and Zhang Yiming were immediately escorted out of the room. As they were out of the penitentiary area, he turned to look at her and lashed without wasting any moment, “What the hell did you do inside? Did you think your daddy will give some money to the prosecutors and help you win the case? Wake up, An Xiulan. It’s a high-profile case. Even if your father put all his wealth to help you win the case, he will fail!”

An Xiulan stared at him. She blinked her eyes. Once. Twice. Thrice. Then, rage took over her and she took several deep breaths to calm him.

[Xiulan, don’t punch the bitter guy. He has a past. Empathize with him.]

[Well, Empathy can go buy soy sauce!]

“Is it my fault that my daddy is rich and I’m his daughter who he doted on too much?” An Xiulan asked, giving him a mocking look. “Why don’t you have a rich daddy? Should not you tell your mother and ask her to find a rich man?!! Instead of pointing fingers at me for something I didn’t even dare to think, I will never forgive you. Also, I didn’t know that all men are jerks and dogs.”

“Excuse me?” Zhang Yiming said in disbelief.

“Yes, all men are jerks and dogs including you, ” An Xiulan said with a kind smile.

“Just because you have a bad experience with one jerk, doesn’t mean all men are the same, ” Zhang Yiming pointed out.

“Oh, shouldn’t you do the same?” An Xiulan questioned him. “People love to preach about good things but they never follow their own preaching. Mr Zhang, I get it that you were hurt and betrayed. But it doesn’t mean all working daughters of bosses are in the company because of nepotism.”

She took a small pause and went on, “You know I never wanted to be a lawyer. I had a successful career at the age of seventeen. Even if I hadn’t gone to college and done higher studies, I would still have been a little rich lady but I chose not to do this. My father recognised my talent and nurtured it. I won many cases in America and trust me, my father’s influence doesn’t reach there. Am I showing off my capability and background? I don’t know. Take it as whatever you want.”

Did she give two flying fucks about this man? Absolutely not! She didn’t study law for seven years to this day! She would not let any man or woman belittle her. She was not the same insecure An Xiulan. She worked very hard to make a place for herself in this world and she wouldn’t let any hurt or betrayed man take away her joy and peace when he failed to protect his own.

An Xiulan didn’t just stop here. She was going to clear every doubt today as she believed in the policy of better doing it today than tomorrow.

“Today, I could have ignored your comment and kept my mouth shut but this would have only caused more problems between us in future, ” She said in a very kind tone, “We are in NL to work not to have a prejudice against anyone. Also, if you can work without any prejudice with me, well and good if not I will ask Amanda to change my team. I believe my father has enough influence in the company to let it happen.”

She said the last sentence in haughtiness and flipped her long dark hair before disappearing from there. Zhang Yiming was left wondering what to say. He had never expected that someone could burn him with a such sweet and polite tone.
