Chapter 429 Does Zhuang Yi like Xiao Yu?

Xiaoyu was taken aback and quickly said, "I'm sorry, sister. I just wanted to tell you something, I didn't mean anything by it."

"Hehe, don't worry, I'm fine. Although I don't want to hear about this person, Chenchen and Niuniu are still around, so my life can't really be completely unrelated to him. But I'll adjust. Xiaoyu, I'm invincible now, nothing can hurt me!"

"Yes, I'm happy for my sister, and I'll continue to learn from her and not let anything affect me!" Xiaoyu said.

Gu Zhiyao looked at her thoughtfully, then, remembering the matter Lin Houze had entrusted to her, she asked, "Xiaoyu, have you been having some troubles lately? I heard from Houze that the new case you took on had some unusual reactions. Can you tell me why? Do you know the client?"

Xiaoyu stiffened upon hearing this, and met Gu Zhiyao's gentle and caring gaze, truthfully replied, "Sister, I did have some ulterior motives for taking this case."

"Ok?"

“You remember Zhuang Yi, right? The opposing lawyer is from his law firm. I want to beat them!” Xiaoyu continued.

Gu Zhiyao's heart trembled slightly as she said, "I remember Zhuang Yi. I happened to see him at the annual meeting the day before yesterday. What did he do to you? Is it because of the time you helped me fight for custody, and you're still bothered by his taking the opportunity to humiliate and attack you?"

Xiaoyu nodded. "This is something, sister. I will never forget that scene. From that moment on, I knew that he was a scumbag who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. But what angered me even more was his sexual harassment of me later!"

"He... sexually harassed you?"

"Yes, once I went out to a party with my friends, and we all drank too much. When I went to the restroom, I ran into him. He groped me and insulted me. Sister, I hate him so much!"

Uh!

Gu Zhiyao really couldn't believe it!

Although she didn't know much about Zhuang Yi, she had heard some things about him from Lin Yu. Because Zhuang Yi was He Yi's lawyer when they were fighting for custody, she would always try to find out about Zhuang Yi's situation.

Zhuang Yi is a second-generation rich kid. Although his family's company is not as big as the He Group, it is still a large listed company. He did not inherit the family business, but instead opened his own law firm.

Zhuang Yi is handsome, capable at work, and comes from a good family background, so he is naturally favored by women. He doesn't refuse any of them and changes women like he changes clothes. He has dated celebrities, internet celebrities, live streamers, and all kinds of rich girls, but he is still not married.

Logically speaking, Zhuang Yi could have any woman he wanted, so there was no reason for him to come and harass and sexually assault Xiao Yu!

"Was he drinking at the time?" Gu Zhiyao asked.

“He must have drunk it, but he wasn’t confused or disoriented. Unfortunately, I don’t have concrete evidence to report him!” Xiaoyu said angrily.

"What did he say to you?"

"He didn't say anything, just asked me why I went there, and said that good girls shouldn't go out and mess around, let alone drink! I cursed him and said what it was to him, who did he think he was? He actually grabbed me and forcibly kissed me, and even touched me!" Xiaoyu said, her face showing humiliation.

Gu Zhiyao fell silent again, the image unconsciously forming in her mind.

A thought immediately popped into my head.

Could it be that Zhuang Yi likes Xiao Yu?

But that’s not right either.

Zhuang Yi and Xiao Yu didn't have much contact at all. The most direct contact was during the lawsuit. At that time, he was really despicable. In order to mess with Xiao Yu's emotions, he even made personal attacks against her!

Could it be that he lost the case and was resentful, so he took the opportunity to humiliate and bully Xiaoyu?

This is quite likely.

Gu Zhiyao then reached out and hugged Xiaoyu, comforting her, "There are all kinds of people in this world. Many people look righteous, but are actually extremely ugly inside. Don't take this to heart, and don't let it affect your life, Xiaoyu. We can't control those bad people, but we can stick to our own hearts and just ignore them!"

“I thought so too, but sister, I couldn’t help but be influenced by him again this time. Actually, the person involved in this case is also a scumbag. He did something illegal and shouldn’t be helped at all. But only our law firm has the ability to compete with Zhuang Yi’s law firm. The other party offered a huge fee and personally went to the firm’s shareholders to put pressure on President Lin. President Lin had no choice but to take on this case.” Xiaoyu took the opportunity to tell Gu Zhiyao about the scene of going to see the person involved last night, but temporarily omitted the part about Zhuang Yi.

Gu Zhiyao frowned upon hearing this.

“Sister, you told me before that we study law to uphold justice and become lawyers to eliminate harm to society. We have the right to choose our clients. We will not take cases against people we should not help, no matter how much money they offer. That is our bottom line. But I took this case because of my own selfish desires and my desire to defeat Zhuang Yi and damage his law firm.”

"Fool, this has nothing to do with you. Didn't you say that the other party is determined to have the law firm take this case and has even brought in a shareholder to intervene? Even if you don't take it, someone else in the law firm will. I actually think it's better if you take it, at least you know how to handle it. In lawsuits, there are winners and losers. No one can say that taking a case means you have to win it."

"Sister, what do you mean...?"

“Sometimes we can’t choose the people involved, but we can stick to our original intentions. Since this person has broken the law, he should be punished by law. Xiaoyu, you can personally bring him to justice!”

"I understand what you mean, sister. But, won't this affect the law firm? Will President Lin be unhappy if he finds out?"

“He’s not that kind of person, you don’t need to worry about that, and besides, I’m here for you.”

"That's good. Thank you, sister. You always give me guidance. I know what to do now. A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. We shouldn't let personal grudges affect official business. I will definitely find another way to make Zhuang Yi pay the price!"

"Yes, the net of heaven is vast, and those who do evil will always be punished. Come, let's drink."

Cheers, sister!

Everyone ordered fruit wine, but they all enjoyed it. Then Xiaoyu and Gu Zhiyao chatted about the annual party. "Sister, I've heard everything from my colleagues. I also think you can come back. With you watching over me, I'll become better and better!"

"Hehe, we'll talk about it later. I know what you're all up to, and Ayu has been trying to persuade me."

"Sister Lin Yu is also a kind and affectionate person. She hopes that you can return to our place and live a peaceful and happy life."

"So I will think it over carefully. It's truly an honor to have met you all!"

"You're too kind, sister! By the way, sister, let's take a group photo." Xiaoyu picked up her phone, moved closer to Gu Zhiyao, and snapped several photos in a row before immediately choosing one to set as her screensaver.

"I'll put it on my computer screensaver later," Xiaoyu said.

Gu Zhiyao smiled. "You admire me that much?"

"Of course, my sister is my role model for life. I've always hoped that I could become like her!" Xiaoyu said sincerely.
