Chapter 699: 699, Lu Chenyu hopes you can know the difficulties and retreat
Xiao Yebai looked at her, “Have you ever thought about why Lu Chenyu is making things difficult for you?”
“Why?”
“The internship position he gave you is purely a favor to a friend. Clearly, with your capabilities and qualifications, you can’t meet his requirements, but there are too many miscellaneous tasks in the law firm, so having an intern is not a big deal. However, ever since you got scalded, everyone in the law firm knows your real identity. With Lu Qingtian’s previous lesson, do you think the people in the law firm will still treat you as an intern? Dare to order you to do the miscellaneous work?”
Mo Weiyi looked at him without saying a word.
“Lu Chenyu hopes you will back out when it gets tough. Understand?” Xiao Yebai raised his fingers and gently touched her little head. “Think carefully about it.”
After saying that, he stepped into the bathroom.
Mo Weiyi: “…”

In the evening, at the Imperial Court villa.
As soon as Su Wanwan finished showering, she heard her phone ringing incessantly.
She rushed to pick it up anxiously, “What’s the matter?”
“Wanwan, I’m unhappy.” Mo Weiyi’s aggrieved voice came through the phone.
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
“…” Mo Weiyi did not speak.
Su Wanwan guessed, “Did you quarrel with Xiaobai again?”
Before Mo Weiyi could answer, she started scolding, “Is he still entangled with Tian Ye? He’s such a jerk! Absolutely despicable! If I ever run into him, I guarantee I’ll…”
“No!” Mo Weiyi hurriedly interrupted her, “Xiaobai and I are very good.”
“…” Su Wanwan rolled her eyes, “Then why are you calling me out of the blue so late at night?”
And with an aggrieved tone.
“I wanted to ask you about the internship.”
“What’s the matter?”
Mo Weiyi told Su Wanwan what Xiao Yebai said earlier, and finally asked her, “Do you think I should intern somewhere else?”
However, Su Wanwan sighed, “I didn’t expect Xiao Yebai to have such a clear understanding.”
Even though Xiao Yebai is only 26 years old, as expected, people with high IQ also have high EQ. He sees through these so-called human feelings very clearly.
“He said that Lu Chenyu was intentionally making things difficult for me, just to push me away. It makes me so mad. I thought of him as a mentor and was wholeheartedly sincere, but it turns out he was trying to drive me away!”
Su Wanawan cleared her throat, “So you want to switch places for your internship? Go to Mo Family? Or to another law firm?”
Mo Weiyi softly said, “I’m studying law. Isn’t interning at a law firm better?”
“In that case, you should continue at Yurui.”
“Why?”
Su Wanwan began to advise her, “Think about it, even if you switch to another law firm now, whichever one it is, sooner or later your real identity will be exposed, right? By then everyone will be like they are now, no one will dare to let you work. What’s the difference between that and the current situation at Yurui? But Yurui is way better than other law firms! Moreover, you have a mentor like Lu Chenyu. Actually, if you follow someone like him, you can really learn something. At least, he will tell you the truth, dare to assign you tasks, and also, he’s highly esteemed in the industry, has lots of experience…”
“But he’s always critical of me!”
“Then you have to perform well and make him look at you in a new light! You must adjust your attitude and tell him that you’re really there for the internship, eager to learn from him. So, you should listen to whatever he says, do whatever he asks you to do. The more he wants you to leave, the more you should stay. Xiaobai already told you, because of Chu Xiuhuang, he won’t fire you. If you actually leave now, isn’t that just falling into his trap?”
“Oh, you’re right.” Mo Weiyi suddenly understood.
The next second.
“But he doesn’t let me wear jewelry, doesn’t let me do nails, doesn’t let me wear my hair down, I have so many clothes that he doesn’t let me wear… even Xiaobai has never controlled me like this!”
The last sentence was the most infuriating!
Su Wanwan sighed, “I suddenly feel like Xiaobai over the years must have really had a hard time with you.”
“What do you mean?”
“Nothing.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
The sound of footsteps came, Su Wanwan looked up and said, “Think carefully about it. I’m going to shower and sleep.”
“Okay then.”
…
When Huo Jingshen returned to the room, Su Wanwan had just ended the call.
“Who was that?”
Su Wanwan said, “Weiyi.”
“Did she quarrel with her husband again?”
Su Wanwan: “…”
She got up, “I’m going to take a shower first.”
Just about to go get her change of clothes, her hand was grabbed.
With a soft, magnetic voice, Huo Jingshen said, “Together.”
Su Wanwan got goosebumps, “Ah, I suddenly remembered that I have washed up and am really tired. I’m going to sleep now. I have to wake up early to go to school to cut film tomorrow.”
After saying this, she immediately turned off the light.
In the dark, Huo Jingshen asked, “Baby, when will you be done with your busy schedule?”
“Why?” Su Wanwan was a bit defensive.
“In a couple of days, accompany me to a charity banquet.”
Oh, I see.
Su Wanwan let out a sigh of relief and asked with her eyes closed, “When is it?”
“On Friday evening.”
Friday evening, huh?
Su Wanwan thought for a bit, “Okay.”
Huo Jingshen seemed satisfied, “Good girl.”
Su Wanwan: “…”

The next day.
As soon as Su Wanwan woke up, she received a call from Mo Weiyi.
“Wanwan, I’ve made up my mind.”
“What?”
She thought the girl had decided to resign, but unexpectedly…
“I decided to go back to work!”
Su Wanwan was surprised, “Really?”
“Yes, but I’m taking half a day off first.”
“You’re taking leave again?”
“I need to get my nails done! They only lasted a few days, you need a professional to help properly remove them.”
“…All right.”
*

As for Mo Weiyi’s leave, Lu Chenyu was already used to her oddities.
As soon as she mentioned taking half a day off, he directly agreed.
He had some business at the court in the morning, and by the time he returned to the law firm, it was already 2:00 PM.
As he passed the assistant’s office, he habitually paused to glance inside.
Then, he walked in with a frown.
Mo Weiyi was working, hearing footsteps, she thought it was old Wang returning, without raising her head, she said, “Teacher Wang, I’ve changed the lilies on your desk. If you find the smell too strong, I’ll change them for you later.”
“…”
No one spoke.
Mo Weiyi looked around and almost jumped, quickly greeted politely, “Master, hello.”
Lu Chenyu looked at her, from her hair to her feet, and then to her fingers.
Mo Weiyi immediately said, “Master, I went to the salon this morning to remove my nail art and cut my nails short. It really makes it much easier to work.”
Lu Chenyu: “…”
It’s not just about removing the nail art and cutting the nails, she did not wear earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, and even her lush and beautiful hair, which she often cared for, was tied into a ponytail.
She looked much neater, and the aura of a pampered lady had faded somewhat.
Lu Chenyu suddenly felt a wave of darkness hit him.
God.
At first, he thought a young girl with a ponytail was working here and wondered if the law firm had new people.
He had a good night’s sleep last night, thinking that the curse finally gave up, but didn’t expect…
“Master? What’s wrong?” Mo Weiyi looked worried.
Why did Lu Chenyu’s brows furrow?
Why did he look so stricken?
And why didn’t he say a word?
The next second.
The silent Lu Chenyu turned around and walked out.
Mo Weiyi: “…”
