Chapter 216: Talking About Love and Cases (XII)
The bandit was taken away by the police. After some interrogation and investigation, it was discovered that the bandit was bribed by Zhao Guotian!
Zhao Guotian was extremely angry with Xu Xiaoli. If Xu Xiaoli had not taken the case, how could the woman who killed his son escape the crime? Moreover, he had intended to suppress the fact that his son intended to rape, but Xu Xiaoli made it known to everyone, and even the Zhao Group was affected.
A few days ago, when he learned that Zhao was about to be acquired by Hengtian Group and Xu Xiaoli already had 35% of Zhao's shares, he almost collapsed emotionally. That night he got drunk in the bar and hired the bandit in a daze.
At first, Zhao Guotian did not admit it. Lu Tianheng transferred the case to the serious crime team. Several people investigated for several days in a row and found the exact evidence that Zhao Guotian hired the murderer, proving that Zhao Guotian was still sober when he traded with the bandit.
Zhao Guotian was imprisoned, Zhao Guorong was a second-generation ancestor who only knew how to spend money but could not take on the responsibility. The crisis of the Zhao family became more and more serious, and Zhao Guorong had to sell his shares to Hengtian Group, which offered a reasonable price. Since then, the Zhao Group was renamed Xingda Industry and merged into Hengtian Group. On the opening day of Xingda Industry, the Xu family attended the opening ceremony together in gorgeous clothes.
Xu Xiaoli made her first appearance as a partner of Hengtian Group. After speaking, she suddenly said that she had a surprise for her family. "Xingda Industry was part of my business investment before. I accidentally owned 35% of the shares. Today I plan to give these shares to my family. Thank you for your unswerving support and encouragement for so many years! I hope to share my achievements with them. Thank you!"
Next, a master of ceremonies led the Xu family to the stage and sat with Xu Xiaoli and related lawyers and witnesses. The equity transfer book was placed on the table. Many reporters around took photos desperately, excited about tomorrow's headlines.
The Xu family didn't know about the equity transfer in advance. They looked at each other in a daze. Xu Xiaoli blocked the microphone and said softly, "Sir Fei, please be happy. If you refuse to sign the agreement, I will lose face."
After hearing her say this, they had to swallow the refusal that was on their lips and put on an unnatural smile. Their ideas were very simple. Xili Mei was so glorious on the stage just now, and they couldn't lose face because of them.
The agreement was to transfer 10% of the shares to Xu Guoan and Xu Guoliang, and 15% of the shares to Xu Fei and Liang Xiu'e. After seeing Xu Guoan signed the agreement, Sister Chang was so excited that she almost cried with joy, but she gritted her teeth and held back. Although Xingda Industry is now a fresh start and the value of the shares is not as high as before, it is also money they have never thought of in their lives. The Jingzhi family that once despised them only owned 20% of the shares of the Zhao Group before.
The chairman of Hengtian Group was also relieved when he saw this. In his opinion, Xu Xiaoli's move fully proved that she did not intend to interfere in the management of the company. He was still happy to maintain a friendly relationship with the major shareholder who only took dividends.
Jingzhi sat in the living room of the Jing family, watching the screen on TV, and was so angry that his heart ached, "Brother and sister-in-law! I think she came to retaliate against us on purpose! Otherwise, why did she choose to acquire Zhao's when there were so many companies going bankrupt? We really underestimated her at the beginning, but we didn't expect that she would become a partner of Hengtian Group all of a sudden! Sister-in-law, didn't you say before that she was causing trouble in your school? You really have to be careful of her!"
"Okay, don't complain, you should think about what you want to do in the future with this time." Jiang Huizhu frowned and looked at Xu Xiaoli on TV. She regretted for a moment, but then comforted herself that no matter how good Xu Xiaoli was, she was not as educated as the young lady of the aristocratic family. However, thinking that Jingbo had not had a girlfriend for so long, she suddenly felt a sense of crisis in her heart.
"Honey, this sharp girl has become a new rich, so our previous objection is no longer valid. Do you think Kingsley will?"
Jing Ran was stunned for a moment, turned to look at her and asked: "Why do you think so? They have been separated for almost two years. The last time I saw them outside the court, there was nothing unusual about them, right?"
Jiang Huizhu rubbed her forehead and sighed: "Oh, I am worried. The sharp girl is completely different now. If she wants to play tricks, how can our Kingsley beat her! Kingsley dumped her at the beginning, maybe she really will retaliate, no, we have to find a way, we must not let Kingsley and her get back together again! "
Jingzhi smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, do you still remember Baoer? She is the eldest daughter of the chairman of the Meiyugo Group. She used to get along well with Kingsley, but later Kingsley went to Australia and they lost contact. Do you want me to go to the matchmaker?"
Jiang Huizhu and Jingran looked at each other, and they were quite satisfied with Cai Baoer, so they nodded and smiled: "Okay, if Baoer is interested, let's make an appointment to meet."
Xu Xiaoli's status as a barrister and a partner of Hengtian Group has made her a headline in newspapers. Interested people have paid attention to her experience since her debut and found that she has won all the cases she has taken on perfectly, and has won the greatest interests for her clients. Some students and trainee lawyers who admire her secretly call her the victorious general. Gradually, this name has spread, and Xu Xiaoli has lived up to their expectations. She has worked hard on every case and strives to make the profession of lawyer perfect.
Xu Xiaoli respects her master Chen Yuqi very much. Seeing that she has been rubbing her shoulders recently, she seems to feel her pulse unintentionally. There is no big problem, but Chen Yuqi has been working in the office and rarely exercises. Now that she is old, all the diseases that are not easy to cure, such as periarthritis of the shoulder and cervical spondylosis, have broken out.
Xu Xiaoli went home and prepared some medicine powder for Chen Yuqi to regulate her body. When she invited her to dinner, she mixed it in her drink and advised her with concern: "Master, I helped you and your master to get a gym membership. The gym package arranged by this gym is very reasonable and the effect is very good. You can go and have a look when you have time. You should pay attention to your own body, otherwise don't blame me for nagging."
Chen Yuqi shook her head with a smile and put away the gym membership card. "I know, you nag more like an old woman than me. We will go when we have time. Don't be the only one who says that I am the most hardworking in the entire law firm. Don't take advantage of your youth and don't pay attention. It will be too late when you feel uncomfortable."
Xu Xiaoli smiled and said, "Master, don't worry, I have taken good care of myself!"
During the meal, she went out to the bathroom and happened to meet Cai Baoer. Cai Baoer looked at her She smiled and said, "Miss Xu, are you alone? Kingsley and I are here for dinner. Do you want to sit together? I have always wanted to meet Miss Xu."
Xu Xiaoli smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Cai, thank you. I came with my master. Let's talk next time."
Cai Baoer followed Xu Xiaoli out and took out an invitation from her bag and said, "Miss Xu, this weekend, Kingsley and I will hold an engagement ceremony. I hope you can come then."
Xu Xiaoli glanced at her, took the invitation and put it away, and smiled and said, "I will go." Passing by where Jingbo and the others were sitting, Xu Xiaoli stopped and said to Jingbo, "Professor Jing, what a coincidence? Congratulations to you first. I will bring gifts on the day of the engagement."
Jingbo didn't expect to run into her and nodded awkwardly.
Xu Xiaoli walked to the corner and looked back. Cai Baoer was tilting her head and saying something with a smile on her face. Jingbo's face also recovered. I have to say that Cai Baoer is very good at coaxing people. She is very good at observing people's words and expressions. She can always find topics that interest the other party the most. If her real temper is not so irritable, she really fits the identity of the daughter-in-law of the Jing family.
Early in the morning of the weekend, Xu Xiaoli received a call from Lu Tianheng, "Tina, I heard that you are also going to Kingsley's engagement ceremony, right?"
She heated a cup of milk for herself and said while drinking, "Yes, I met Miss Cai at dinner that day. She gave me an invitation. Anyway, it's okay. Since she invited me, I will go. How did you know?"
"I was drinking with Kingsley yesterday, and he told me. Ahem, actually Kingsley didn't want to get engaged so early. He felt that there was something missing between them, but Aunt Jing was anxious and urged him very hard."
"Oh, Gordon, why are you telling me this? What? Whether they are engaged or not is none of my business. Although I am Professor Jing's ex-girlfriend, that was two years ago. I wouldn't mind even if he gets married. "
Lu Tianheng thought that you don't mind, but the key is that Kingsley himself still minds a little, "OK, let's not talk about this, Tina, do you have a male companion today? Why don't you go with me."
"Okay, then I won't drive, you can pick me up at my house in two hours."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Xiaoli smiled. She knew that Lu Tianheng was afraid that she would face the strange eyes of the Jing family if she went alone. After all, Jingbo was engaged, and the ex-girlfriend went alone, always feeling like an old lover looking for trouble. Thinking of Cai Baoer's provocative eyes that day, maybe she would really do something at the engagement ceremony, so it would be better to go with a male companion.
At the engagement ceremony, the guests and guests were mixed, and it was very grand. When Xu Xiaoli and the others arrived, the guests were almost all there. She walked to Jingbo and Cai Baoer, holding Lu Tianheng's arm and said with a smile, "Bless you, and hope to drink your wedding wine as soon as possible."
Lu Tianheng also smiled and congratulated them.
Cai Baoer looked at Jingbo shyly, and when she saw that Jingbo didn't say anything, her eyes changed, and she recovered instantly, "It's too early to get married. Thank you for coming today. Go in and sit down."
Xu Xiaoli and Lu Tianheng were led to the seats for the newlyweds' friends. Jiang Huizhu frowned when she saw her and whispered, "Why is she here?"
Jingran glanced at them, patted Jiang Huizhu's hand, and comforted her, "Don't worry, maybe she just came to send blessings as a friend, maybe Gordon brought her here."
"I don't know how Kingsley made friends. Gordon didn't study hard when he was a child, and he is only an inspector now."
