Chapter 8 seems thrilling, but actually nothing happened

. I thought it was a chance encounter, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a close relationship.

After Xia Jinxian arrived in Longbei, she was assigned to the research team to conduct research on legal aid projects.

Unfortunately, she and Zhong Weiyi were grouped together, probably because they were from the same district.

Zhong Weiyi is in the liaison team, responsible for arranging assistance projects to be connected at various points, while Xia Jinxian follows a deputy team leader, surnamed Lin, to go to each paired township and village to understand the situation and write research topics.

There was no way to escape what was coming. If Zhong Weiyi tried to trip her up, she had no choice but to take it.

We were going to a small fourth-tier county that day. Zhong Weiyi said that the assisting lawyer did not come, so she asked them to go and investigate first.

Xia Jinxian had a foresight and contacted the county cadres in advance to find out that the county she was going to was in trouble due to the occupation of collective land.

There is most likely a protective umbrella behind this, involving all aspects.

Now the villagers are clamoring to petition and file a lawsuit against the company that has usurped collective land.

However, most of the villagers are uneducated and do not understand the law. They need a lawyer, and even the knowledgeable lawyers are unwilling to take this kind of case.

There must be a corruption case behind this.

Zhong Weiyi probably got the news a long time ago and knew that there was a group visit conflict in this place. It is also possible that the legal aid lawyer himself had heard about it and couldn't shirk it. In this way, when it came, there would be no one to work on it.

When Xia Jinxian went to investigate, of course she was surrounded by villagers along with Team Leader Lin.

When Xia Jinxian heard the news from the side, she felt that Zhong Weiyi had not made much progress over the years. She just loved to trample on others and took pleasure in seeing others make a fool of themselves. It was obviously something that harmed others but was not beneficial to oneself, but she did it smoothly.

This mentality is really too ugly.

At the end of the breakup with Xu Yanqing, Zhong Weiyi, as a good dog of Xu Yanqing's mother Li Yun, slandered her with Liu Wanjun for having a miscarriage because of Xu Yanqing, and even forced her to hand over the set of things she and Xu Yanqing had spent the best time with together. , the key to the house.

At that time, Zhong Weiyi was very proud, but now, she is not necessarily much better off than herself.

Xia Jinxian was too lazy to talk nonsense to this kind of garbage man. She reported to Team Leader Lin and just said that she needed to wait for the assistance lawyer to arrive.

Team leader Lin is a middle-aged man who has been engaged in politics and law for many years. He was once a public security policeman and is very keen on this kind of thing. After hearing what Xia Jinxian said, he praised her for her carefulness and said that he had contacted several people in Longbei. Friends, think of a way.

This is said to be a county town, but the conditions are not very good, including insufficient power and water supply.

Xia Jinxian and Team Leader Lin lived in a guest house. In the middle of the night, the power went out.

It was very cold at night and there was no heating. Xia Jinxian was shivering from the cold.

At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard a noise in the guest house.

As if someone came to seek revenge, the doors were kicked in one room after another.

Xia Jinxian was frightened, holding the toilet plug in the toilet in her hand, leaning against the door and holding her breath without saying a word.

After a while, the noise gradually subsided, but there was a sudden knock on Xia Jinxian's door.

Team leader Lin asked outside, "Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia! Are you okay?!"

Xia Jinxian breathed a sigh of relief, the light flashed and the power was restored.

Wearing the thickest coat and opening the door, the deputy director was also wrapped in a large cotton-padded jacket and looked a little worried.

He said, "Someone is here to stop the debt collectors. It's a mess here. If you sleep alone at night, be careful."

Xia Jinxian nodded, walked to the window and looked down, but was pulled by Team Leader Lin.

"Mind your own business," Team Leader Lin said.

Xia Jinxian took advantage of the street lights outside and caught a glimpse of the man sitting next to her on the plane.

She exclaimed, "Is that him?"

After hearing what she said, team leader Lin leaned against the window and leaned against the wall. He glanced down warily and asked, "Do you know him?"

Xia Jinxian faced Lin The team leader lied, "Yes, a friend I knew before."

Team Leader Lin looked at Xia Jinxian and said, "Call the police."

Xia Jinxian called the police. After a while, the siren sounded and the police car drove over. Team Leader Lin So he took his cell phone and went downstairs. Before leaving, he told Xia Jinxian not to look at it, and asked her to close the windows and doors and go to bed early.

The night seemed thrilling, but actually nothing happened.

Xia Jinxian waited until Team Leader Lin accompanied the man back to the guest house, and it was already dawn.

She quickly handed a cup of hot water to Team Leader Lin and a coat to Ling Tanqing.

Ling Tanqing took the coat with cold hands and said, "Thank you."

Team leader Lin went to answer the phone. He was a kind man who came to the rescue this night. Xia Jinxian somewhat blamed herself for being reckless.

Fortunately, Team Leader Lin was a really good person, and he also helped Ling Tanqing contact friends in the Longbei Public Security Bureau, which solved Ling Tanqing's troubles at once.

While Xia Jinxian was having breakfast, she heard the boss here also vaguely talk about the background of the matter.

It turned out that the person Ling Tanqing wanted to collect debt from was a business owner who had invaded the collective land of the village, took a full 300 acres of land as his own, opened a mine and a forest farm, and hired a group of thugs.

It seems that the creditor also knew that he could not get the money, so he sent Ling Tanqing.

Xia Jinxian asked Ling Tanqing, "Aren't you a legal clerk? Why are you here to collect debts?"

Lingtan escaped from the liquidation and sincerely thanked Xia Jinxian and said, "In a small company, legal affairs are just like doing odd jobs."

Xia Jinxian hugged her arms While running to warm up, he asked him, "That's why you want to get a doctorate in law? For better development?"

Ling Tanqing said lonely, "Yes, for a better life."

Where is the word "easy" in the adult world? , "Now I still have a mortgage, my wife has run away with someone, and I still need to hire a nanny to take care of my children. I can't lose my job. After all, a loser like me has to live, right?"

He tapped the ground in front of him with the toes of his shoes while feeling decadent. To laugh at oneself.

This look doesn't look like Xu Yanqing.

Xia Jinxian said, "Well, I saved you today, can I do you a favor?"

Ling Tanqing frowned and asked, "What?"

Xia Jinxian said, "We are short of an assistance lawyer, can you make up the number?"

Ling Tanqing stared at He looked at her for a while, then smiled and said, "Okay, but there's no guarantee it will work."

Xia Jinxian patted her shoulder and said, "It's OK."

When Team Leader Lin came back from answering the phone, he asked Xia Jinxian , "Have you asked the liaison team? Is there no lawyer here yet?"

Xia Jinxian patted Ling Tanqing and said, "Leader, just use it, Xiaoling worked as a lawyer before."

When she said this, she squeezed Ling Tanqing. Wink.

Ling Tanqing reluctantly nodded to Team Leader Lin and said, "I have a license, but I haven't helped anyone with a lawsuit in more than a year. It should be okay to consult."

Team Leader Lin hesitated, and asked Xia Jinxian, "Can it be done? ?"

Xia Jinxian said, "I listen to you, but I'm afraid that waiting too long will delay our investigation."

Team leader Lin finally agreed and said, "Okay, let's go down first and give it a try. We are only responsible for research anyway. Let the liaison team be responsible for follow-up assistance and personnel."

Xia Jinxian stood at attention and saluted playfully, "Okay, chief."

The morning light fell on her face, and her slightly playful look made Ling Tanqing look at her for a moment, and then looked away.

On a whim, he saved Ling Tanqing, who was almost surrounded by debtors, but he did Xia Jinxian a favor.

Ling Tanqing, who was helpless in the face of debtors, was very good at deceiving the villagers who gathered around him.

Behind Xia Jinxian's back, Team Leader Lin had made an agreement with Ling Tanqing in advance, not to mention anything substantive. They were just here to investigate, not the Discipline Inspection Commission, let alone the Qingtian Master who could uphold justice.

Ling Tanqing was very tactful. Xia Jinxian, who was originally worried that she would be stuck in a traffic jam and unable to leave the village, watched Ling Tanqing set up a small stall and carefully wrote down the demands of each villager. She also completed the questionnaire for her research and asked everyone Happy to coax him back.

It ended at 4:30 in the afternoon, and the village was filled with smoke and chickens and dogs.

Team Leader Lin patted Ling Tanqing on the shoulder and said, "Young man has some skills."

Ling Tanqing's face turned red from the sun, and he smiled and said, "That's right."

At this moment, Xia Jinxian seemed to see Xu Yanqing. When they were in love, He would show such a shy smile to himself from time to time.

It's as warm as the sunlight at this moment.

She breathed a sigh of relief and asked the village cadres here to help close the stall.

The village cadre asked, "When will we get an answer to these villagers?"

Ling Tanqing answered frankly, "The situation will be reported to the superiors. We are just here to listen to the situation." Without saying much, he winked at Xia Jinxian.

Team leader Lin understood. The village cadre was guarding them just like thieves, and there was obviously something wrong with them.

Team Leader Lin drove the car and Ling Tanqing sat in the passenger seat. The two men asked Xia Jinxian to collect the materials and get into the back seat.

Team leader Lin said to the village cadre, "Don't worry, we are just here for investigation."

After that, he raised his hands and said goodbye to the village cadre.

A while after driving from the village, Team Leader Lin said to Ling Tanqing, "Boy, you are very clever."

Xia Jinxian also saw the clue at this time and asked, "Is there something wrong with this village cadre?"

Ling Tanqing nodded and said, "You He looks so guilty. Most of these land-grabbing cases have a protective umbrella, and everyone is involved from top to bottom."

Xia Jinxian asked, "Then let's just ignore it?"

Ling Tanqing looked at Team Leader Lin. She said to Xia Jinxian, "Xiao Xia, this is not our mission this time."

Yes, Xia Jinxian suddenly woke up and said sorry.

After working for these years, what else do you still don’t understand?

Excess kindness and insistence on justice will only be trampled by reality.

The car drove all the way and the sun set all the way.

Ling Tanqing suddenly said, "It's not impossible. I will sort out these materials and hand them in again if I have the chance."

Team Leader Lin glanced at Ling Tanqing and suddenly asked him, "Do you smoke?"

Ling Tanqing looked back at Xia Jinxian.

Xia Jinxian waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter, you can smoke."

Ling Tanqing said apologetically to Team Leader Lin, "I don't smoke either."

Team Leader Lin smiled, stopped the car, and went to smoke a cigarette under a nearby tree.

In the car, Xia Jinxian said to Ling Tanqing, "Thank you."

Ling Tanqing said, "It's my turn to say thank you."

It had been almost a month since the last time she met Wu Tingtao.

Looking at Ling Tanqing's eyes in the rearview mirror, for the first time, Xia Jinxian took the initiative to send a message to Wu Tingtao: President Wu, how are you doing? Do you still accept doctoral students?

Before Team Leader Lin finished smoking, Wu Tingtao's call came back. He asked, "Xiao Xia, why are you asking this? How are you doing lately?"

Xia Jinxian was surprised that Wu Tingtao would reply so quickly. She said, "Very well." Okay, President Wu, I have a friend here who wants to be your doctoral candidate."

Wu Tingtao said, "Isn't it too much to call me Uncle Wu? Friend, please send me your resume. I'm recruiting recently. Assistant, if he is interested, please come and take a look first. I will take care of the postgraduate entrance examination."

Xia Jinxian felt a little embarrassed in front of Ling Tanqing. She covered the position of the microphone and asked Ling Tanqing, "Um, Mr. Wu Tingtao is looking for assistants, and he asked if you are interested..."

Ling Tanqing was drinking water, and a mouthful of water spurted out of her nose, followed by a violent cough.

He looked at her with wide eyes in disbelief and asked, "Ahem...ahem...aren't you kidding me?"

Xia Jinxian glanced at the person on the phone.

Wu Tingtao asked, "Xiao Xia, what's wrong?"

Xia Jinxian said, "Well, Uncle Wu, I want to ask him what he wants. Can I ask him to contact your assistant later?"

Wu Tingtao said, "It doesn't matter, just let him directly Call me."

Xia Jinxian was a little embarrassed and asked, "Isn't it good?"

Wu Tingtao said, "It's okay, Xiaoxia, how are you doing lately? I'll be back in Shanghai in a month. Will you come and see me?" "

Xia Jinxian said, "I'm in Longbei. I'll go visit you when I come back for short-term assistance."

Wu Tingtao asked, "Why are girls sent to Longbei? Okay, I'll wait for you to come back. I'm mostly in Nanjing these days. Just call me when you come back. Just send my contact information to your friends."

Xia Jinxian didn't expect that Wu Tingtao would agree so readily and express her gratitude repeatedly.

Ling Tanqing stayed for a long time without responding. He asked, "You... didn't make up a name for 10085, Wu Tingtao?"

Xia Jinxian said, "You have such a rich imagination, it would be a pity not to become a screenwriter."

Ling Tanqing asked "Is it really Wu Tingtao ?"

Ling Tanqing was dumbfounded. Looking at the business card, he asked, "Is that all? Be his assistant first??" 

Xia Jinxian said, "I didn't ask for details. You heard the whole process. Believe it or not." 

Ling Tanqing was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "What if I don't get into his graduate school?" 

Xia Jinxian looked at Ling Tanqing in a daze under the dark sky, and seemed to see another person very similar to him through Ling Tanqing. 

It was the night when she checked her scores. He attended the Han family's family dinner and drank and drank. 

And she was also having dinner with a group of relatives at home, and it was noisy. 

She called him and deliberately asked him coquettishly, "What if I don't pass the civil service exam?" 

He pretended to be angry and said, "I don't allow you to fail the exam." 

She said angrily, "Are you so strong?"

Xu Yanqing smiled and said, "In your impression, I have always been aloof and cold. I acted according to the script you gave me."

She said, "No, you are the gentlest."
