[Episode 10]

Congratulations on passing the test.

Boss, this is the first time you've praised me.

Come in.

Boss.

As a lawyer, don't wear your emotions on your sleeve.

You are right.

Boss.

I found out something about the Dong Shan case.

He doesn't want a divorce because he's sick,

but because he's having an affair

and has an illegitimate child.

That's why he wants a divorce.

How did you find out?

When I was talking to him,

he said something that didn't fit his age.

I found it weird at that time.

I also found out later that he has a private villa.

So I'd just take a chance and catch him in the act.

Cheng Yao, you've finally learned to think.

Cheng Yao, you've finally learned to think.

I am very pleased.

Why aren't you surprised?

Have you known all along?

Not really.

It's just that I know Dong Shan very well.

When I took on the case, I already had my suspicions.

I just wanted to give you a chance to look into it on your own.

Congratulations on passing the test.

Boss, this is the first time you've praised me.

If you can't spot such a simple problem,

then you can't work here anymore.

I know you would've seen it right away.

But I can't compete with you.

Boss, rest assured.

I will do my best.

I'll give my 100%. I certainly can…

You won't surpass me, anyway.

However, boss, to celebrate the first time you've praised me,

However, boss, to celebrate the first time you've praised me,

what do we have for dinner?

Seafood? Steak?

Or whatever you like.

No need, I have an appointment with a client.

I won't be home for dinner tonight.

Alright, I'll make it for you next time.

I'm off to work.

Hello, I'm the property manager.

Cheng Yao.

She walks her dog pretty hard.

Recently, there have been several incidents of grope in the community.

If you have a woman living in your house,

please be alert.

Maybe she just walks the dog a long way.

Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be reached at the moment.

Stop talking and start looking for her.

Cheng Yao.

Look how excited you are.

Right?

You're tired of being home all the time.

Excuse me, well…

Do you know how to get to Building 5?

Go straight ahead from there until you get to the first intersection

Go straight ahead from there until you get to the first intersection

and then turn right.

Okay, thank you.

You're welcome.

Megatron.

How can Megatron eat trash?

Megatron.

I'm telling you,

if anything happens to Cheng Yao,

I'll sue your property management into bankruptcy.

Boss, catch it.

No, no!

Boss.

I'm sorry.

What did it eat?

You wouldn't want to know.

Cheng Yao, hurry up.

Almost ready.

Hurry up. I'm telling you,

I'll throw you out with your stupid dog.

I'm making foam, boss.

I know you're in a hurry.

But if you can't wait, you could wash it yourself first.

I don't want to touch its saliva.

I would have if I could.

- Okay, okay. - It stinks.

Come on.

Hurry up.

Where was it?

Here, here.

It really stinks.

Of course!

I'll wash it.

Boss.

This cleanser costs me a lot,

and I don't use it myself normally.

It is perfect for you today.

It is perfect for you today.

Feeling better now?

Boss.

I know today Megatron made a big mistake.

And you might get mad at me too.

I could be fired tomorrow for anything.

I could be fired tomorrow for anything.

But boss, I'm already making amends.

I absolutely cannot allow your pretty face to be ruined.

Otherwise, your male attractiveness will drop.

Otherwise, your male attractiveness will drop.

Okay.

Wash here too.

It didn't lick here, no need.

Boss.

You don't have to be so anxious next time.

I have Megatron with me.

In case something happens, it can still bark.

However, boss, you looked really handsome.

However, boss, you looked really handsome.

Megatron.

You silly dog.

You can't do that again, okay?

Do you know you almost get banished?

Good morning, boss.

To calm your nerves,

I have prepared both Chinese and Western breakfast for you.

See which one you like.

It's no use trying to please me, unless Megatron disappears.

It's no use trying to please me, unless Megatron disappears.

I know you're angry about what happened yesterday,

but for the sake of Megatron being a puppy,

but for the sake of Megatron being a puppy,

can you just give it another chance?

Is this how you apologize to me?

Boss,

actually, not everyone

can revive an old dream.

Boss, you've been knocked over by a dog in your childhood too, right?

You would get familiar with that.

Revive an old dream?

Get familiar with that?

Boss, I will take good care of Megatron,

and there will never be a next time.

I would take the punishment for it.

Don't try to avoid making the late-night snack.

No way.

Your quality of sleep

is my biggest concern.

No matter what, I'm going to

make you every late-night snack well.

Boss, I get paid today.

To make amends to you,

may I take you to dinner?

Is your salary enough?

Indeed, no.

I am just a low-paid worker.

Maybe I should give you more bonus.

Really?

Boss, you are so generous.

Take a closer look at your bank balance

to sober up.

What's wrong with him?

It's a nice view out there.

Why did you invite me here?

Well,

even if you are a public interest lawyer,

you still need a fixed place to work, right?

This place is convenient for transportation,

and next to Junheng.

If you want to see Cheng Yao, you can go anytime.

Perfect.

Indeed.

Then the desk can be placed here.

Okay.

The light is good.

- Put a sofa over there - Okay.

- as a reception area. - Okay.

And put some tea and fruit.

I can also relax here.

I told you we had a connection.

We're on the same page.

At that time, right at the entrance,

you can put one Office Guardian Tree here

to attract the money.

Junheng has also put one.

Wu Jun, thank you.

But I can't accept it.

Wu Jun, you know

I usually work

at countryside or suburbs,

or shanty town, or demolition areas.

I don't need this place.

But still, thank you.

Well,

I'm in a bit of trouble and I need your help.

I can't come to you empty-handed for help, right?

Our law firm

has received the legal aid cases

by the Legal Aid Center.

You know all the lawyers at our firm

are either proud or aloof,

having them do legal aid

would probably scare others.

I really have no other way,

so I'd like to ask for your help.

This matters to whether our firm can obtain the Golden Scales Award or not.

Please do me a favor, okay?

No problem.

Come to me anytime.

But I really can't take this office.

I don't need it either.

Alright, no office.

Well, then you have to take me.

Right, me.

How about I be your assistant?

This job was mine,

assigned to me.

Then of course I have to finish it.

But what public interest lawyers do

is different from

what you usually do.

Don't worry. I'll work hard.

I can endure any hardship

for Golden Scales Award.

So from today,

I'll be your assistant.

Mrs. Zhang.

Miss Cheng, you're finally back.

About my man's case…

Let's talk in the house.

Okay.

Mrs. Zhang.

Take this

and drink it.

The place you live

is dark and damp,

so you are easy to catch a cold

and get cross-infected.

You must take good care of yourself.

I've filed the evidence that your husband got injured

in the line of duty.

The court date is next month.

Everything is in order.

Don't worry.

All that matters right now

is to take good care of yourself.

Your husband depends on you.

Mrs. Zhang, I need to deal with something.

Wait here for me.

I'll be right back.

You go ahead with your work.

Come out.

Cheng Xi.

I think this place of yours is really nice.

With flowers, trees,

and birds.

How did you know I live here?

Did you investigate me?

Well, well.

I just care about you.

My client's waiting for me inside.

Say what you have to say and go.

Well, what…

I just forgot the combination to my safe,

and I couldn't remember it at all.

I was so anxious, so I came to ask you.

And the more I thought about it

on the way,

the worse I felt.

I thought…

I thought that this family can't do without you.

The combination to the safe

is the date we got our marriage certificate.

How could you forget that?

Cheng Xi.

I can see that.

You still have me in your heart.

In fact, I have you in my heart too.

How could I possibly forget?

You haven't changed in all these years.

You are still so beautiful.

If you have me in your heart,

then how could you forget

that you and I are divorced?

No, no. It hurts.

Miss Cheng.

Are you okay?

I'm in a bit of a hurry. I have something to do later.

Hurry!

I save your face for once.

I'll call the police if you come again.

It's fine.

She's tough.

I heard something's not right,

so I deliberately interrupted you.

Miss Cheng, are you alright?

I'm fine, Mrs. Zhang, please have a seat.

Okay.

There's an authentic Brazilian restaurant near my house.

Come and try it.

Boss.

Boss.

I have sorted out the Dong Shan case.

See if there's anything you need to improve.

Cheng Yao.

You don't need to follow up on the Dong Shan case.

Why?

Is there something I'm not doing well enough?

You can tell me.

No.

You did a good job.

It's not your problem.

Then what's the matter?

Did Dong Shan withdraw the suit?

He's dead.

What?

Dong Shan's death was a complete accident.

He rushed to the airport on business early this morning.

A large truck overturned because it was overloaded

and it crushed his car.

He died on the spot.

This is the death certificate his assistant just faxed over.

During the divorce proceedings,

when one party dies,

the litigation ends.

So we're off the case.

As for Dong Shan,

he's at least halfway

to what he's always wanted.

His marriage to Jiang Wenxiu is indeed over,

just in the way of his death.

He must not have expected

to end his marriage this way.

Right.

Dong Shan's memorial meeting is in an hour.

His assistant informed me of the time and place.

As a lawyer,

I'd like to pay him my last respects.

According to custom,

isn't the memorial meeting

supposed to be held after three days?

What's the hurry?

However, boss,

you have an appointment with a potential client this morning

to talk about proxy matters.

It's about an inheritance dispute,

the target amount is one hundred million.

Cheng Yao,

communicate with the client

to try to reschedule.

If they don't agree, then cancel it

and apologize to them.

But in this case,

it could push the client to other firms.

I know.

Then I'll call the client right away.

Cheng Yao,

you'd come with me to the memorial meeting.

[Resident Death Certificate]

Thank you.

My father, Dong Shan,

was a good father

and a good husband.

When I was young,

he and my mother

started from scratch,

and worked together

with the greatest effort

to provide me with the best life possible.

Today,

it is with great sadness

that I am here to mourn my father.

He was my first client.

Back then, I

was just a young lawyer, fresh out of law school,

without experience or a reputation.

But Dong Shan

still chose to trust me.

My condolences.

My condolences.

Mr. Qian.

Thank you for coming to my father's funeral today.

Mr. Dong is my client.

I should be here.

Mr. Qian.

Do you mind

if I excuse you for a moment?

Of course.

Great, thank you.

Minmin.

You go out.

I have something

I want to discuss with the two lawyers.

Mom, you…

Be good, go out.

Okay.

Please.

I've been

holding something in for a long time.

If I don't say it today,

I don't know

if I'll ever have the courage to say it again.

Dong and I have

had a difficult journey

from meeting to getting married

and then to having Minmin.

Back then,

my family was wealthy,

but Dong had nothing.

Neither of our parents approved.

We got married under pressure.

Our wedding

received no blessings from our parents.

I ran away from home

without a penny

when I married him.

We've worked our way up

from scratch

like this.

When I knew Dong

wanted to divorce me,

I was collapsed.

But

I know.

There is nothing critical of my relationship with Dong

over the decades.

Any conflict

can be resolved.

So,

we won't

divorce anyway.

I just…

I just didn't expect Dong would…

suddenly…

Mr. Qian and Miss Cheng,

about the matter of divorce,

besides me,

Minmin,

and some close people in the company,

no one else knows.

So,

today, I

would like to ask you two

to keep this secret for us.

Dong has already gone.

Please preserve the last bit of dignity

for my family,

okay?

Each of my clients and I

are bound by a confidentiality policy.

Even if the proxy

is no longer valid,

but confidentiality clauses are permanently valid.

You can be assured.

Good.

Good.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Boss.

Why does it feel like

you don't like Jiang Wenxiu?

I don't.

I just do my business as usual.

It can only be said that such an ending

may not be too bad for Jiang Wenxiu.

She didn't know about Dong Shan's affair.

Look at how upset she was

at the memorial meeting.

It seems that she will never forget Dong Shan.

She knows it.

What?

She knows everything.

About Dong Shan's affair?

No way.

So she was faking

all that pain and distress

at the memorial meeting? No way.

Jiang Wenxiu and Dong Shan started from scratch together,

even the outside world does not know

that Zhenwei Catering could grow to where it is today,

the key is not Dong Shan,

but Jiang Wenxiu.

She is a woman of great business skill

and motivation.

She indeed was sad,

and she also sticked to her plan.

Boss, why would you say that?

She didn't even follow the custom

of keeping the dead body for three days

before cremation.

He died before dawn,

and she held the memorial meeting today to cremate him right away.

Why is that?

She knew everything, and she knew he had an illegitimate child.

That's why she was so anxious to cremate his body

to avoid division of property.

Not bad, you are not that stupid.

Illegitimate children and legitimate children

have the same inheritance rights.

But if one wants to prove that a child has the inheritance right,

one has to prove that he and Dong Shan have a paternity relationship,

which requires DNA testing.

So Jiang Wenxiu was in such a hurry

to cremate Dong Shan's body,

which is to destroy his body tissue

and DNA.

Right.

Then the other side has no way

to claim a paternity test.

She was trying to deny the existence

of the illegitimate child at all.

So this is why

she wanted to meet us

and asked us to keep it a secret.

♫ Cloudy days of mistakes and the wrong time ♫

♫ You're always here, and all is justifiable ♫

♫ Fingertips trace your probing ♫

Have you finished the materials I sent to you?

The meeting next week is very important.

I've sent you the case plan to your mailbox.

Don't you need to walk Megatron?

I've already walked it after dinner.

♫ The most probable tomorrow, which I don't want to hide ♫

Be diligent in observing the emotional stress of subordinates

and then take appropriate measures,

belongs to the boss's regular management work.

♫ The most beautiful confession is the existence of love ♫

♫ At most there are some surprises, and you let me take a guess ♫

Megatron.

Do you think the marriage

would be just a calculation in the end?

It's not strange.

The law only protects property,

but not relationship.

I don't like them.

They cause a lot of pollution to my working environment.

I want you to take care of them.

What you just asked Megatron

bothers you that much?

I thought you'd know more about this

as a family lawyer.

Right.

My sister used to be so close to Deng Ming,

yet in the end, they parted ways and she was still tricked by Deng Ming.

There are differences.

My parents are different.

There's nothing of interest between them,

so I still can't find the bond

between them.

Could it be you, boss?

You're that outstanding,

must be their pride.

Perhaps you are their common language.

My dad thinks that I am not engaged in a proper job,

advising me to dissolve Junheng

and go home to take over the company.

What, boss?

You're the top of Junheng.

What would we do if you leave?

Don't worry.

You don't have much time left on your probation.

You're more likely to leave Junheng sooner than I am.

I wonder if you are comforting me or insulting me.

But you're empathetic and comforting,

perhaps it's right for Wu Jun to hire you.

You work harder,

sooner or later, you'll beat Bao Rui and Yu Fei.

Miss Cheng.

After my dad's affairs are done,

can we meet up sometime?

Boss,

Dong Min asked me if we can meet.

Remember to record.

I asked you out today,

I hope I'm not interrupting your work.

It's okay today.

How's your mom? Is she okay?

It's like she's pretending to be easy every day.

I think she's trying not to upset me.

But the more she does so,

the more useless I feel.

The dead are gone,

those who are alive

have to live their lives better.

Yes.

For my mom,

I need to pull myself together.

Actually, two weeks ago,

I saw Qian Heng once.

At that time,

my dad asked him for a divorce.

We lawyers have regulations

we can't just disclose clients' privacy.

I know.

I know he is a senior lawyer.

He has his own principles in handling matters.

But I always feel

that he would explain something to me afterward.

That's the way he is.

He keeps many things to himself and is unwilling to talk about them.

I'll tell you what.

Actually,

I've been pursuing him for over two years.

I always thought no matter what,

he would

at least care about my feelings

a little bit,

or

he would care about me a bit.

But it turns out

I think too much.

I really envy you.

You know what.

Such a cold and aloof man like him,

when I came to see you,

he sent me a message asking me to stop harassing you.

What is it about you

that attracts him?

No.

No.

The boss is just a typical man.

Sometimes he hurts others without knowing it.

Don't be upset.

I'm just kidding.

Best wishes to you.

So do I.

Being a kid for so long,

it's time to grow up.

Best wishes to me.

Don't move.

I'm warning you,

you'd better stay away from me.

You…

Don't move.

Don't move.

Close your eyes.

I must be crazy.

Why does this dog look more and more like Cheng Yao?

Boss, you're here.

Why is Megatron wearing an eye patch?

Come on.

Its eyes are silly,

which is mental pollution to me.

Let's go, back to the room.

Rest well, don't move.

Is there anything

Dong Min asked you to tell me?

Nothing.

We're just having a little chat.

Well, boss,

you don't like Dong Min.

Turning her down is good for her.

But the case is over now,

and her father has passed away,

as a friend,

have you considered telling her

why you hid it from her?

Why should I?

At least let her know

you didn't mean to hurt her.

The result has been settled,

what does it matter

if I mean it or not?

Yes.

It means a lot to her.

Cheng Yao.

Giving people false expectations

is the greatest harm.

If a person lives

in his own world,

am I supposed to add fuel to the fire?

When are you going to treat me to dinner?

I've been a bit busy lately, so…

Article 472 of the Civil Code,

the one guarantees…

I'll treat you to dinner now.

What shall we eat?

Boss, maybe we should change another one.

This is already the most cost-effective restaurant

I can eat at.

I even used the term "cost-effective"

for you.

Oh my.

It's quite a burden to me.

Hurry up.

Maybe you should order.

Well, this.

We'll have this, and this page.

Two servings.

Okay, sir.

Can we finish them all?

If we can't finish them, we can take away.

Since there's still some time before the dishes are served,

let's recite some law articles then.

Maybe we should just talk about life.

What?

Why did you choose to study law?

Do you have faith in the law?

Because I chose the wrong one.

What?

I played video games all night before the day I filled out my application,

and I was a bit dizzy.

I thought I had applied for French,

but when I enrolled,

I realized that I had applied for law.

Because I liked French art films back then,

so I wanted to learn French.

But now that I think about it,

there is absolutely no need to major in French.

Why?

Is it because minority languages are less employable?

No.

It's because I've watched too many French movies,

so I memorized all the lines and sounds,

I passed C2 in a year and a half.

It's perfectly fine to talk to the French now.

And studying law makes me a lot more practical.

Now I think it's kind of fun

being a lawyer.

It's like making a fortunate mistake.

See.

People at a young age

might not see themselves clearly.

At the time of choosing a major,

I wouldn't know

how smart I was.

So you also played games all night?

Are you even listening?

What game did you play?

Khonu.

I play that too.

Tanoti, do you know Tanoti?

Which character do you play?

I use the mage.

The mage is quite difficult to play.

Of course.

That's why it's fun to play the mage.

In the early stages, you're definitely fighting alone.

No matter how well equipped you are,

you can be instantly taken out with a single move.

But in the later stages, a large-area attack can be killing.

So you're so into playing games.

Among the people I know,

very few can complete the game with the mage.

You're the best at playing video games among lawyers

and the best lawyer among gamers.

By the way, boss,

the songs in it are really nice.

I even created one back then.

Do you know what this genre is called?

Death Metal.

For the first time, I think I have a little fate

for being your assistant.

Worth a toast.

If you really like it,

I've got some rare albums at the villa that I can bring you.

I don't even have a decent phonograph.

It would be a waste if you give them to me.

If you like them,

then it's not a waste.

I didn't know you could be cute sometimes, boss.

Or maybe,

we should just recite some law articles.

The dishes are served.
