My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day - Chapter 681

Chapter 681: 681, Has Lawyer Lu been charmed by the Little Princess?

When Aunt Zhou left, Mo Yaoxiong looked at Xiaoli, “What’s going on?”

Xiaoli quickly explained, “Sir, Ms. Xu drove back from the south of the city by herself. As soon as I found out, I immediately went to her. Little Princess seemed normal, she probably doesn’t know about this yet.”

“What did the hospital say?”

“I’ve already asked, the gynecologist said that Ms. Xu is older and considered a high-risk pregnant woman. She’s also not in good health, so they suggested it would be best not to abort, as it could be dangerous.”

“When is the surgery?”

“The surgery is scheduled for next Sunday, 9th April, which is… the day after Ms. Xu’s birthday.”

Mo Yaoxiong did not say anything more.

Xiaoli stood by the side, not daring to say a word.

The living room was so quiet it was frightening, with only the sound of the antique clock ticking on the wall.

Who knows how long it has been.

“Keep an eye on Xu Jing, anything happens, let me know immediately.”

“Okay.”

“You can leave.”

“Okay.”

After Xiaoli left, only Mo Yaoxiong was left in the living room.

He sat there, exhausted, resting his head back on the sofa and closing his eyes.

Xu Jing, you mustn’t blame me.

You are Xu Xian’s sister, Weiyi’s only aunt, the child in your belly, really cannot be kept!

**

Monday, at Yurui Law Firm.

To avoid being nitpicked by Lu Chenyu again, Mo Weiyi especially chose a navy blue business outfit today.

The top was long-sleeved, and the hem of her skirt reached her knees, quite conservative.

After arriving at the office at 9 o’clock, she began to carefully check her weekend assignment again to ensure no typos.

At 10 o’clock, Lu Chenyu arrived at work on time with his briefcase.

Wearing a suit and leather shoes, glasses on, eyes straight ahead, serious and business-like.

Mo Weiyi immediately sent her assignment to his mailbox and printed another copy, waiting for a face-to-face discussion with her master.

As expected, not long after, the landline on the desk rang.

Old Wang next to her immediately looked over.

His eyes filled with envy and jealousy.

Has Lawyer Lu been bewitched by the beauty of the Little Princess?

Starting from last Friday, he has been actively assigning her work, even giving her weekend assignments. Today, Monday, he called her as soon as he got to the office.

Is he grooming the Little Princess?

This was something that had never happened before. Forget about grooming, from start to finish, he, Old Wang, was the only assistant to Lawyer Lu. But now…

Sigh.

Turns out Lawyer Lu is also just an ordinary man, unable to resist the allure of a woman’s beauty.

All these years, he really has been blind, oh how he has been blind…

Mo Weiyi knew nothing of Old Wang’s internal monologue. She quickly picked up the phone, greeting effervescently, “Hello, Master.”

“…” Silence met her on the other end.

Mo Weiyi blinked her cat-like eyes, “Master? Hello? Can you hear me?”

“…” Still, no one spoke.

Could it be someone other than Lu Chenyu?

Or…

Is the phone broken?

Finally.

“Didn’t HR teach you how to answer the phone?”

Mo Weiyi was taken aback, before she could speak…

“Bring your assignment, come to my office.”

“Okay.”

Before she could finish the “Okay,” the call was already cut off. Seems like … he’s in a bad mood?

Mo Weiyi didn’t think much about it, she got up with her printed assignment and headed to Lu Chenyu’s office.

The door wasn’t closed, so she walked right in, “Master, this is my case analysis plan.”

Lu Chenyu sat behind his black desk. Hearing her, he raised his melancholic eyes, “Don’t you know how to knock?”

“Master, your door was open, besides, weren’t you the one who asked me to come here? I thought you were in a rush to see me, so I came right in.”

Having said that, Mo Weiyi looked at him with an innocent and uneasy expression, “You weren’t doing anything inconvenient, were you?”

Lu Chenyu: “…”

He couldn’t help but raise his hand to rub at his throbbing temples.

Headache!

Can someone come and take this donkey away?

The office fell into silence.

Mo Weiyi stood there, unable to resist opening her mouth again, “Master, this is my…”

“Knock, knock, knock.”

The sound of knocking suddenly interrupts.

Mo Weiyi turned around and saw the director of the HR department standing at the door.

“Mr. Lu.”

Lu Chenyu lowered his finger, “Come in.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Even with the door open, she had to knock formally?

As expected, Lu Chenyu asked, “Have you learned it?”

Mo Weiyi quickly nodded obediently, “Yes, I have.”

Next.

“Don’t the interns and new employees get orientation training these days?”

Director Wang immediately replied, “Yes, they do.”

“Then why?” Lu Chenyu tilted his head, looking at Mo Weiyi, “Why doesn’t Miss Mo know how to answer the phone in a professional manner?”

Mo Weiyi was startled.

Director Wang too was startled.

This basic knowledge was in the firm’s rules and regulations, and she had already taught Mo Weiyi briefly on her first day as an intern.

But now, all she could do was admit her mistake, “I’m sorry, it’s my oversight.”

“Now, immediately, teach her.” Lu Chenyu narrowed his black eyes, stressing each word, intimidatingly.

Director Wang felt immense pressure and promptly started on-site training,”First, you must answer immediately after two rings to ensure clients don’t think there is no one in the office, delaying any business or collaboration.”

Mo Weiyi nodded.

She did that right!

“Second, after connecting the call, you should greet the other party and state the company or department’s name, such as, ‘Hello, this is Yurui Law Firm.’ You should never say ‘Hello’ directly, and never address someone as ‘you,’ as it could be deemed as impolite.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

I see.

Okay, she would correct that next time.

“Third, prepare a pen and paper in advance, to make necessary notes.”

“Fourth, hold the handset in your left hand and the pen in your right…”

Like so, blabbing on and on, about eight or nine points about how to answer a phone call,

until she finished.

“Did you remember everything?” Lu Chenyu asked.

Mo Weiyi could only nod, “I remembered.”

“Did you learn it?”

Mo Weiyi continued to nod, “I learned it.”

Lu Chenyu seemed satisfied, “You can leave first.”

“Alright.” Director Wang breathed a sigh of relief, thank god for her strong business ability, she could rattle off eight or nine points impromptu.

…

“Let’s discuss the analysis proposal you sent me.”

Upon hearing these words, Mo Weiyi immediately stood erect, ready to listen attentively.

And then…

“What did you write here? It’s in shambles, with zero logic, in a mess, without any practical suggestions, you can’t even string together basic sentences! You had two complex cases and took two days to churn out this analysis of fewer than 500 words? Are you trying to mock me or the client?”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

He threw the two pieces of paper on the table, and Lu Chenyu continued his blistering assault, “I am suspecting that you haven’t attended a single class in your three years of university. Where do you get the nerve to apply for an internship?”

Mo Weiyi answered very truthfully, “It’s true I didn’t attend classes in my freshman and sophomore years, but I did attend the last two months of classes in first semester of junior year. As for the internship, didn’t you approve of it, Master?”

Now it was Lu Chenyu’s turn to, “…”

His right fist clenched tightly.

As if grasping hard on someone’s throat.

“Master, I have really been working very hard.” Mo Weiyi started to pout and whimper, “I looked up a lot of information and worked in the study all weekend. My eyes have blurred and I didn’t go out at all, not even to see the newest movies. I wrote these 500 words by thinking independently, even my hubby praised me for being serious.”

Lu Chenyu lowered his head, feeling a headache coming on.

He rubbed his temples with one hand and waved his other hand quickly, “Get out, get out!”

Mo Weiyi “… Okay.”

Back in her office, not long after,

With a ‘thud,’ a huge pile of stuff was placed on the table.

“Before leaving work today, bind these files.” Old Wang asked, “Do you know how to do binding?”

Mo Weiyi shook her head.

“I’ll teach you.” Old Wang was about to pick up the clips.

“No need, I can’t do this, find someone else.” Mo Weiyi didn’t hold back.

Old Wang kept a straight face, “But this is the job Mr. Lu has assigned to you.”

Mo Weiyi made a face, “Really?”

“Of course.”

Old Wang felt extremely pleased, “Mr. Lu said that having you analyze cases is really too difficult for you, let’s start with small tasks like binding files and threading.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Old Wang straightaway picked up the clip and started his lecture, “First, clip the files with the clip, put some waste paper underneath, use the hole punch to punch holes in the file, making sure the distance between the holes…”

Finally, when she learned how to do it, with Old Wang’s guidance, she finished binding the first file, Old Wang spoke again, “Mr. Lu said, if you don’t finish binding all these files, you’re not allowed to go off work.”
