Chapter 20 Being Troubled
Last Updated:
2024-08-03 14:31:14Tong Xiaoge sat quietly in front of the window, took a deep breath, trying to dispel the heaviness in his heart.
As night fell, the city lights twinkled like distant stars, but her mood was as deep and complex as the night.
Her thoughts drifted to the sweetness of the past, but were quickly replaced by the bitterness of reality.
Every thought was like a burden, making it hard for her to breathe.
She closed the window gently and returned to the living room, feeling exhausted.
She looked at the neatly arranged law books and a sense of determination rose in her heart.
Tomorrow, she will start a new life, a life without Fu Chen's shadow.
Tong Xiaoge turned off the lights in the living room. In the bedroom, the sheets were neat and the pillow was stained with tears she had shed last night.
She lay down, wrapped herself in the warm quilt, closed her eyes, and let the tears wet her eyes again.
The tears were cold, but her heart g

Liang Jing's voice echoed in the conference room, and everyone's eyes were focused on Tong Xiaoge.Tong Xiaoge's heart tightened, but she quickly responded, "I will correct it immediately. Regarding those mistakes, I really should have paid more attention to the details."Liang Jing snorted in dissatisfaction , "I hope you can do better next time. This is not a place for people to make mistakes."After the meeting, Tong Xiaoge returned to his seat and carefully checked every document to make sure there would be no more mistakes.She knew that in such an environment, any small mistake could become a big problem in the eyes of others.In the busy daily life at the office, Liang Jing seems to have found a new hobby - making things difficult for Tong Xiaoge.One afternoon, Liang Jing suddenly shouted in the office, "Xiao Ge, all the colleagues in the office need coffee to refresh themselves. Go buy a round for everyone and make sure everyone's

Yang Biao was stunned, obviously not expecting Lin Shuyu to appear at this time and directly intervene in the dispute.Tong Xiaoge's breathing gradually became steady. She looked at Lin Shuyu gratefully, then took a step back and made way for him.Lin Shuyu looked directly at Yang Biao and continued, "Tong Xiaoge's reaction is completely reasonable. Your behavior has seriously violated our company's regulations and workplace ethics. We cannot tolerate such behavior."Yang Biao's face alternated between anger and paleness. He tried to defend himself, "I was just joking. You guys are overreacting."Lin Shuyu shook her head and interrupted him, "Jokes cannot be made at the expense of others' dignity. You should understand this. I don't want to see this kind of behavior in my team."Then, Lin Shuyu turned to Tong Xiaoge and said, "Xiaoge, I am very sorry for everything you have been through. I will deal with this problem immediately."Then he t

Lin Shuyu quietly took a thick case file from the bookshelf in his spacious and bright office. The afternoon sun shone through the large windows onto his desk, casting a golden glow. He turned around, holding the key document in his hand.Tong Xiaoge stood at the door, her eyes full of expectation and slight nervousness. She was wearing a simple dark blue suit, looking particularly professional and serious.Lin Shuyu smiled and waved at her, motioning her to come in. "Xiao Ge, this is all the information for our next case. I want you to lead this case," he said in a calm tone, but his eyes flashed with trust and expectation for her.Tong Xiaoge took the file, her hands trembling slightly, and a mixed feeling surged in her heart - both excited and a little uneasy. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and then looked at Lin Shuyu seriously. "Brother Lin, this is a huge challenge, but I will do my best. Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity."

After entering the living room, Tong Xiaoge and Lin Shuyu sat on the sofa, while Lin Xiaowei sat on the chair opposite, her hands clasped together nervously. Her eyes flashed with fear from time to time, and she was obviously uneasy about the meeting.Tong Xiaoge noticed her uneasiness and said softly, " Xiaowei , we are here to help you. We understand that you have experienced some very unfair things. If you are willing, you can tell us more and we will do our best to help you."Lin Xiaowei's tears began to accumulate slowly, and after hearing Tong Xiaoge's words, she seemed to find some comfort.She sniffed, her voice choking with sobs, "I...I really don't know what to do. After that day, I have been living in fear. I'm afraid he will come back to find me..."Lin Shuyu also interjected softly, " Xiao Wei , you are not alone in this fight. We will use legal weapons to protect you and ensure that the person who hurt you receives the punishment he deser

The rain under the street lamps cast a dim light. Tong Xiaoge and Lin Shuyu walked slowly along the slippery sidewalk.The trees lining the street looked particularly heavy due to the rain, as if they were carrying the burden of the case.Lin Shuyu suddenly stopped and turned to Tong Xiaoge, her voice soft but firm, "Xiaoge, you handled it very well today. I know this was not easy for you."Tong Xiaoge smiled slightly, and even though her face was tired, she still spoke with a smile."Thank you, Brother Lin. This is our responsibility, isn't it? No matter how difficult it is, we must face it."Lin Shuyu nodded and said in agreement, "Indeed. Now let me take you home. It's late and you need to rest."They walked to the car parked on the side of the road, and Lin Shuyu gentlemanly opened the door for Tong Xiaoge.Just as Tong Xiaoge was about to get in the car, a figure hidden in the shadows on the opposite street corner quietly raised

Bai Haoyang raised his lips slightly, and his voice revealed a hint of satisfaction, "Very good, Youwei , you know how to operate. Remember, we need Fu Chen's influence, but don't let him take full control of the situation. We use him, but we don't rely on him.""Understood, bro."Bai Youwei responded, her voice full of confidence and wisdom, and she had obviously begun planning how to cleverly use Fu Chen's power without being bound by it.After hanging up the phone, Bai Youwei sat quietly for a moment to organize her thoughts.She knew that Fu Chen was not a simple character, and working with him required extreme caution and shrewdness.She took out a piece of paper from the drawer, her fingertips gently stroked the cold metal frame, and a complex light flashed in her eyes.After dialing Fu Chen's number, the call was quickly connected, and Fu Chen's voice came from the other end, calm and low."Youwei , why are you calling me so la

Fu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly , and he approached Tong Xiaoge, so close that she took a step back unconsciously. "Of course I know you are a lawyer, Xiaoge, but you seem to have forgotten that every decision you make is related to me, especially when it involves threats that you may be threatened."A trace of barely perceptible distress flashed across Tong Xiaoge's face. She tried to remain calm, "I don't need your protection, Fu Chen. I can take care of myself."A bitter smile flashed across Fu Chen's face, and his voice was slightly sarcastic, "Really? It seems that you are very confident. But Xiaoge, have you considered the consequences? Are you really ready to get involved in high-risk cases?"Tong Xiaoge looked back at Fu Chen firmly, "I made my choice, and I am ready to bear all the consequences. Fu Chen, you don't need to make any judgments about my life."The conversation between the two was filled with unspoken tension, and the air in the o

She deliberately raised her voice to attract more attention from people around her.Tong Xiaoge's eyes flashed with displeasure, but she quickly controlled her emotions, "Everyone has things they need to deal with, Liang Jing, I hope you can understand."Liang Jing chuckled and patted Tong Xiaoge's shoulder in a sympathetic manner. "Of course, we all understand. It's just that, you know, with so many eyes in the office, it's always good to stay professional."Tong Xiaoge nodded, without saying anything more, and returned to her office. She closed the door, leaned against it, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.Liang Jing returned to her seat and whispered with several colleagues who were close to her, "Did you see that? It's unbelievable that someone like Tong Xiaoge can still work here."One of the colleagues asked cautiously, "Liang Jing, isn't it a bit too much to say that? After all, we don't know her private situation."Liang J

Lin Shuyu's voice was still full of concern, "Okay, Xiaoge, you have to be careful. I will do my best to collect evidence and wait for you to come back."Tong Xiaoge nodded, "Thank you, Brother. I will be in Yuncheng soon."After hanging up the phone, Tong Xiaoge became more certain that she must rush back to Yuncheng as soon as possible to rescue Shi Jinglan's family and not let them get hurt because of her.She went to the hospital's front desk and made arrangements for Grandma Tian's funeral.Then she hurriedly took a taxi and prepared to take the next flight back to Yuncheng.The night breeze blew on her face, but her mood felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on her, heavy and urgent.Tong Xiaoge sat by the window, looking at the scenery rapidly receding outside the window, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.There are many problems she needs to solve. Not only does she have to face the overbearing Fu Chen and protect Shi J

He knew that once Tong Xiaoge returned to Yuncheng, she would have to face Fu Chen's control again, but he had no choice but to protect her friend with all his strength.Tong Xiaoge got into a taxi. The night breeze gently blew on her face through the half-open window, but she couldn't calm down.She held the phone tightly, her thoughts in a mess, and Fu Chen's cold face and Shi Jinglan's helpless look kept flashing through her mind.The taxi had just gone a short distance when she suddenly slapped her forehead, her heart tightening, "Master, please turn around, I left my ID card at the B&B."The driver nodded and drove the car back the same way.When they arrived at the alley outside the B&B, Tong Xiaoge got off the car quickly, anxiously thinking about returning to the B&B to get her ID card and then rushing back to the airport.She walked quickly back to the B&B, and just as she reached the door, she suddenly saw a figure sneaking away o

One night, Shi Jinglan received a strange phone call. A cold voice came from the other end of the phone:"Miss Shi, if you don't cooperate, don't blame us for being rude."As soon as he finished speaking, the door of Shi Jinglan's house was forced open, and a group of bodyguards in black rushed in.They took control of everyone in Shi Jianguo and Shi Jinglan's homes.Shi Jinglan struggled and roared, "Fu Chen, you are crazy! What you are doing is illegal!"Fu Chen walked in coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Jinglan , I have given you a chance.""Since you are unwilling to cooperate, this is the only way."Shi Jinglan's eyes flashed with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Fu Chen, what do you want?"Fu Chen sneered, "It's very simple. Tell me where Tong Xiaoge is and I can let you go. Otherwise, your whole family will be in turmoil."Shi Jinglan felt a surge of despair in her heart, but she still sai

Grandma Tian left the balcony with a smile. Tong Xiaoge looked at her back and felt a warm feeling in his heart.The early morning sun shines on the quaint town, and the streets are filled with the faint fragrance of flowers.Tong Xiaoge decided to go to the market to buy some fresh vegetables, thinking of making dumplings with Grandma Tian in the evening.She put on simple clothes, walked out of the hotel, and walked towards the market along the bluestone path.The market was bustling with people, vendors were shouting enthusiastically, and the air was filled with the aroma of various foods.Tong Xiaoge stopped in front of the vegetable stall and picked some fresh vegetables.She was in a good mood, and thinking about the dumpling dinner in the evening, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly."Girl, you bought so many vegetables today. Is it a special day?" asked the vegetable seller with a smile.Tong Xiaoge

"Girl, are you looking for a place to live?" the old woman asked gently, with a kind gleam in her eyes.Tong Xiaoge nodded, a trace of fatigue on her face, "Yes, mother-in-law. Is there any room available?"The old woman nodded and said enthusiastically, "Yes, yes, please follow me, girl."Tong Xiaoge followed the old lady upstairs and walked into a warm little room.The room is not big, but it is decorated very warmly. The bedding on the bed is neat and clean, and you can see a quiet garden outside the window.She put down her luggage, feeling a surge of gratitude."Thank you, mother-in-law. It's so beautiful here." Tong Xiaoge said sincerely.The old woman smiled, her eyes full of love, "As long as the girl likes it. This is a small B&B I have run for many years. Guests say it feels like home here."Tong Xiaoge nodded, and the uneasiness in her heart eased a little.She looked at the old woman in front of her and felt a

The breakfast on the table was barely touched. It was obvious that he had not slept all night and was in an even more irritable mood.Bai Youwei took a deep breath, walked forward, and said softly, "Brother Fu Chen, haven't you had breakfast yet? Health is important, eat something first."Fu Chen looked up at her with only indifference in his eyes, "I have no appetite, it's none of your business."Bai Youwei felt a sharp pain in her heart, but she still kept smiling, "Brother Fu Chen, I know you feel bad, but you must take care of yourself. We will definitely find Tong Xiaoge."Fu Chen looked at her coldly, with a hint of impatience in his tone:"Youwei , you don't know anything. Don't waste your time here. You might as well go help find someone."Bai Youwei's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.She knew that now was not the time to argue with Fu Chen, she had to calm down."Brother Fu Chen, I wi

He paced back and forth in the room, his thoughts in confusion, and the figure of Tong Xiaoge kept appearing in his mind.He knew that he could not lose her again, no matter what the cost, he would get her back.At this moment, Shen Lanxiu and Bai Youwei walked in.Seeing Fu Chen's gloomy face, Shen Lanxiu asked with concern, " Chen'er , what's wrong? Have you found Tong Xiaoge?"Fu Chen glanced at them coldly, with a flash of anger in his eyes, "She has left, and the assistant hasn't found her yet."Shen Lanxiu frowned, pretending to be concerned and comforted, " Chen'er , don't worry, we will definitely find her."When Bai Youwei saw this, a trace of pride flashed in her eyes, but there was a concerned expression on her face:"Brother Fu Chen, don't worry too much. Maybe Tong Xiaoge just went out to relax and will be back in a few days."Fu Chen snorted coldly, his eyes flashing coldly, "What do you know? She has been clamorin

She only packed a few items she bought into the suitcase, and she moved very quietly, fearing that she might wake up Fu Chen who was soundly sleeping.The photo on the table caught Tong Xiaoge's attention. It was a photo of them before they became husband and wife.At that time, Fu Chen smiled so brightly, his eyes full of tenderness.Tong Xiaoge gently picked up the photo, brushed her fingertips across Fu Chen's face, tears glistening in her eyes.She took a deep breath, put the photo back where it was, and continued packing her things.Throughout the whole process, Tong Xiaoge tried her best to keep herself calm, but the waves in her heart were difficult to calm.Everything left behind is a farewell to the past, to the former self and Fu Chen.She closed the suitcase gently and went back to the study.There were some of her books and documents there. She picked up a book whose cover had turned a little yellow. It was the first

Bai Youwei walked over gently and said softly, "Brother Fu Chen, you have already drunk a lot. If you drink more, your body will not be able to bear it."Fu Chen ignored her and continued drinking.Bai Youwei frowned slightly, feeling secretly anxious.She knew she had to act quickly.She walked over to the wine cabinet and pretended to pick up a new bottle of red wine.While Fu Chen was not paying attention, he poured the prepared medicine powder into the wine glass, then walked back to Fu Chen with the wine glass."Brother Fu Chen, I know you feel bad, I can drink with you at worst."Bai Youwei said softly, handing the wine glass to Fu Chen.Fu Chen took the wine glass in a daze and drank it all.He didn't notice anything unusual about the alcohol, he just felt his head getting heavier and his vision getting blurry.Bai Youwei felt proud when she saw this.She knew that the medicine had begun to take effect.
