A and M's Daily Season 2

Chapter 24 Seaman

Lawyer Mi has had another convulsion recently, and suddenly entered the deep well ice mode when he disagreed with each other.After dinner in the evening, we would all stay in the living room, each holding a computer, each doing its own thing, without interfering with each other.I had nothing to do that day. I was bored and played a few games. The battle was fierce. When the pk was in full swing, my uncle sneaked out a claw from the back without anyone noticing, and slapped me hard on the shoulder. I was so frightened that I pressed the keyboard randomly, the nanny who was manipulating it spun and jumped, made a big sprint, flew into the local camp gorgeously, and rushed to the street... Immediately, there was a lot of curses in the team channel, and symbols filled the screen.

Seeing that I was about to win, when he made such a move, the group was instantly wiped out. The captain kicked me out of the team without saying a word, and added a sentence: "Stupid rookie, get out!".I was so angry that I dropped the earphones and got angry at him: "What are you doing? What do you want? Didn't you watch the critical moment when I was playing a game?"

Uncle stared at me, then looked at the computer, opened his mouth, and said: "It's okay, you can continue playing, I just want to say hello to you"

Say hello to your sister?

"Crazy, let's go, aren't you going to have a big case in court in two days? Look it up yourself, don't bother me"

With a bitter face, he retracted the pile of documents and continued to immerse himself in the documents.

A few days later, the big case described by Lawyer Mi as "more important than food" was finally going to court, so I got up early and made him a victory breakfast.Uncle has a superstitious little habit. When he was in France, every time it came to an exam day or some important day, his mother would make him three slices of cheese pancakes, 1/3 cup of pure maple syrup, and two chicken sausages , served with a cup of hot chocolate, according to him, this breakfast endows with magical powers, and after eating, he will go to the exam, and he will do well in the exam every time and never miss it.Since then, Lawyer Mi always asked me to prepare the same breakfast for him on the day of the big case going to court.

After serving the breakfast on the table, my uncle checked nervously, and confirmed to me over and over again: "Is it Philadelphia brand cream cheese?"

"Yeah, exactly according to the recipe your mother gave me"

"Added 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon?"

"Yes, 1 teaspoon, no more, no less"

"Use whole milk, not skim?"

"Yes, full fat"

"Is the maple syrup the bottle my mom sent me?"

Impatient, I put the syrup bottle on the table with a bang, and the identification plate faced him to prove: "Yes, it is the bottle sent by your mother, the brand is correct, the quantity is correct, exactly 1 /3 cups, what's the matter with you today? So nervous?"

He pulled his collar and sighed: "The case this time is different from the type I have taken in the past. I am not very experienced in this area, and I am a little bit unconfident."

"You read the materials for a week, you work overtime every day, you are well prepared, you don't have to worry too much, I believe you."

He ate his breakfast quietly without saying a word, his eyes were still rolling around, he kept thinking about something, and when he asked him if he could tell me about the case, he just shook his head and didn't speak.

It's rare to see Uncle so nervous, which made me very curious about the case.Since Lawyer Mi changed to a new company, his method of handling cases has become more and more mature. It is like eating a meal. It is quick and quick, and it is likely to win in all likelihood. Although the remaining one cannot win the case on the surface, it can also be settled peacefully in private. In terms of performance, the performance is very good.

After he went out, I deliberately staggered the time and went to the office to ask his assistant about the case. Lawyer Mi's new assistant, Lily, was a very talkative person, and would hold me for a long time every time.She was happy to see me and would always show me her new dress and lipstick.I stopped on the road and bought a large box of Starbucks breakfast and snacks to take with me, and put it in the kitchen for others to eat.I took a blueberry muffin and handed it to Lily. The little girl turned her head in surprise, and excitedly pulled me to call out: "Asher, I knew it was you! Every time you come, you will bring delicious food."

I smiled and chatted with her for a while, and brought the topic to the case: "Michelle seems to be busy with a case recently, I think he has been very nervous these days."

Lily ate the muffin and shook her head: "That's right, Mr. Michelle recently took a cross-company criminal case. He and a partner from another firm acted as defense lawyers for the CEOs of two companies. He rarely takes this case." You may be a little worried about this case."

Ask her for the address and time of the court, and drive there quickly. If there is time, it will be just in time for them to adjourn at noon and have lunch together.In the United States, general court hearings are open, and other people can enter and leave the court at will.When Attorney Mi first became a full-time lawyer, he asked me to go to the court to watch his arguments all day long, calling it spiritual support.At that time, I was tortured and listened to the legal trial for more than eight months. At the beginning, I thought that kind of thing was quite new, but after listening to it too much, it was mentally tortured and boring.

But because of this, I am very familiar with the court, and it is very easy to find my uncle every time.I went to the case late this time, and the auditorium inside was already full and no one was allowed to enter.I bought coffee outside, sat quietly and played mobile games and waited for him to come out.

Near noon, the court finally adjourned, and a large number of people rushed out of it.I poked my head to look for the golden head, which was obviously one piece taller than others. Lawyer Mi's height was very useful in this situation. The big telephone pole stood out from the crowd and was especially easy to find.He ran over with the coffee and patted him: "Uncle, hey, how was the trial?"

He turned to look at me in surprise, stuttering: "A, Asher, why are you here?"

"I see you were quite nervous this morning, so I came here to cheer you up and buy coffee."

The two people standing beside Attorney Mi looked at me curiously, and reached out to say hello to me: "Hi, my name is Croy Watt, and this is my brother Mason Watt."

Stretch out your hand to hold it, and also report your name: "Nice to meet you, Asher Zhang"

Attorney Mi hurriedly introduced us to each other: "These two Mr. Watt are a pair of brothers. They each opened a company, food processing and dessert processing. They are the clients of the cooperation between our two firms. I am Crowe Mr. Yi Watt's defense lawyer...this is Asher, my boyfriend", and he took my hand after speaking to show the relationship.

Mr. Mason looked a little surprised after hearing this: "Is he your boyfriend?"

I thought it was just that he rarely faced same-sex couples, so I was a little uncomfortable, so I smiled awkwardly: "Yeah, he has been preparing for this case for a long time, I just want to see how he is doing today?"

Mr. Croy stroked his chin and praised: "Mr. Michelle is very professional. The case went smoothly. He and my brother's lawyer clarified the matter clearly and cooperated very well. If I win the case this time, I decide to consider hiring you as an attorney. my personal lawyer"

Michel quickly bowed his head and thanked: "No matter what, the two cooperated well. Mr. Watt, the information you provided is sufficient to make the fight so smooth."

Mr. Mason stared at me for a long time, then leaned over and whispered to his brother: "I thought your lawyer and my lawyer were a couple."

Another lawyer?That's right, this is a case of cooperation between the two firms. Why didn't you see the other person for a long time?Just as I was about to ask my uncle who he was working with these days, a cheerful voice suddenly came from behind: "Today is going well, I just asked the auditor, and he also said that our case is in good condition. Why don't you have lunch to celebrate?"

I turned my head and saw the face I had only seen once, but I could never forget it.The man was also very surprised to see me, and quickly changed to a smiling face, looking at me with a smile.

Gritting his teeth, he turned his head to look at Lawyer Mi, and called out his name word by word: "Long time no see, Seaman."

I have met two or three of my uncle's exes. When it comes to the people I have dated with, I always feel that I am at a disadvantage in this regard.I only have one ex-boyfriend, Oscar. Lawyer Mi has experienced many battles, and I can count the number of ex-boyfriends on two hands.Most of his ex-boyfriends met in school or law school, and now at least half of them have become lawyers.The circle of lawyers is very small, and there are only a few courts in total. They have to come to the court several times a day to hold court sessions, and there will always be a day when they meet.The first time I met Seaman was not friendly, even using the word unfriendly sounds good. To put it bluntly, if my uncle hadn't stopped me at that time, I would have pushed that broken face into the ground to eat dirt.

I used to go out with my uncle, and I met his other boyfriends a few times by chance, and they all felt pretty good. I definitely can't be friends, but at least I don't have the desire to beat them up.Only Seaman was the only one who didn't get along with me. The first and only meeting made me extremely disgusted with him. After returning home, I made a fuss at Lawyer Mi and forced him to swear never to talk to him again. This person has any connection.

Why do you hate him so much?I don't know, since the first time I saw him, I didn't like him from the bottom of my heart.

At that time, in order to coax me, my uncle stretched out three fingers and swore to the sky that when he saw Seaman in the future, he would walk around like shit.

As a result, this piece of shit was blatantly in front of my eyes today, and it was still Lawyer Mi's co-lawyer.

I finally understood Uncle's strange behavior during this period of time. It wasn't because he was nervous about the case at all, but because he wanted to cooperate with this piece of shit in a lawsuit, and he was afraid that I would find out, so he behaved strangely.

He gave Lawyer Mi a vicious look, with an expression of "You wait for me, I'll deal with you when I go back", which scared him so much that he almost knocked over the coffee he was holding.

Seaman came over, shook my hand generously, and greeted me warmly: "I haven't seen Asher for a long time. I asked Michel about your situation a few days ago."

I glanced at the person next to me with a straight face, and snorted: "Really? He hasn't told me much about you"

Seaman didn't pay attention to my words, and still had a smile on his face: "We just finished the case, and we may plan to find a restaurant to celebrate in a while, I would like to invite you to eat together, but our case is more private this time, and the topic of conversation at the dinner table They are all legal issues, which are quite boring. If you don’t study law, you will definitely find it boring.”

! ! ! ! ! ! !

Isn't this what the hell is saying in disguise, "We all have law school diplomas, you are not qualified, so I won't take you to play"?

I was so ruthless in my heart, I was so angry that I almost jumped up and slapped you hard.But I really don't like to participate in this kind of thing. The topics that the lawyer and the client talk about when they meet are bound by the law. If the client wants to tell the lawyer some ulterior secret, the lawyer will abide by the agreement even if he knows it. It is kept confidential and cannot be disclosed to others.This kind of meeting usually leaves the client and the entrusted lawyer, and outsiders are never allowed to join.

Lawyer Mi glanced at me worriedly, and explained to the other three people: "I think Asher seems a little unwell, so I won't go to lunch this time..."

I waved my hand and interrupted him: "It's okay, I'm fine, you go, it's work after all. I'll just drive home later."

Uncle looked at me nervously, and asked again: "Are you sure? If you are really uncomfortable, I can accompany you home. Now, immediately, I will take you home."

Although I am furious, I can tolerate issues related to Lawyer Mi's career. This case is very important to him, and I can't let it go down like this because of my willfulness.

"It's okay, you can go have dinner with them"

He stretched out his hand to touch my head, and kissed on the forehead as a comfort. I took the opportunity to grab his collar and whispered in his ear: "When you come home tonight, we will settle accounts after the autumn. Mom wants to run!"

This sentence made my uncle turn pale with fright, and whispered to me: "I will definitely explain it to you tonight, I promise"

After glaring at him again, he let go, nodded to the other three, and turned to leave.

At seven o'clock in the evening, without cooking or turning on the lights, I sat quietly on the sofa in the dark and waited for a certain criminal to obediently come to the door to plead guilty.At [-]:[-], Mr. Mi, who arrived late, carefully opened the door of the house. Seeing the darkness of the room, he called softly, "Asher, I'm back. Are you home?"

When he turned on the light, he saw my ferocious grimace, screamed in fright, and threw the briefcase in his hand far away.

"Why don't you turn on the light at home?! Are you going to scare me to death?"

"Then you worked on the case with someone else, why didn't you tell me the cooperating person, Shi Ximan?"

Lawyer Mi faltered for a moment, obediently took off his shoes and dawdled over, did not dare to sit down, and stood beside him in a daze: "Asher, listen to my explanation"

I played with my phone absent-mindedly, and said casually, "Explain, I'm listening."

Uncle held back for a long time, and slowly said a word: "I took a case these days, and I cooperated with Seaman."

"Oh, really? I already knew about this at noon today, let me tell you something I don't know."

"...I should have told you sooner"

"Then why didn't you say so?"

You might be able to hear the anger in my words, and he took all the moves: "I really didn't take the initiative to contact him. This time, I finally came to this big case. How could I know that the opposite company hired him? It was only at the first bilateral meeting that I found out that the other lawyer belonged to Seaman, really! My dear, you have to trust me!"

"Oh, you didn't do anything wrong? I wronged you? Is that what you mean?"

Lawyer Mi cried and said hurriedly: "No, no, I was wrong. I should have told you from the beginning, but I was afraid that you would be angry... I know you don't like him..."

Hearing his words, I couldn't pretend anymore, the prototype was exposed, I picked up a pillow and threw one at him, and shouted angrily: "Of course I'm fucking angry! You know I don't like him, so you Why do you still want to cooperate with him? Can't you change people?"

Lawyer Mi pursed his lips and did not answer, bowed his head and did not speak.I suddenly remembered what one of Mr. Watt said in the morning: "I thought your lawyer and my lawyer were a couple."

Even the clients thought they were a couple. No wonder they were surprised when they found out that I was Michelle’s boyfriend. The co-authors didn’t discriminate against homosexuals, but thought that the lawyers of their brothers happened to be a couple. , and this beautiful setting is now destroyed by a stranger who suddenly appeared in the middle of me.

I asked him with a trembling voice, "Are you taking revenge on me? Michelle? Revenge me for Oscar?"
