After closing the door, in a lounge with excellent sound insulation, Zheng Zhongshi's face was ashen and he said nothing.

"Mr. Zheng, with the crime of kidnapping and sabotage, you have already gotten into big trouble. You may not realize the seriousness of it yet..." Manila advised earnestly.

He hoped to get two bottom lines from Zheng Zhongshi. In the case involving kidnapping, the compensation amount could reach 80,000 yuan. As for the horse owner whose horse was abused, the compensation amount could reach 30,000 yuan. As for the other party's third condition

, I will try my best to push it away, and I should be able to push it away.

"In this case, I would rather go to jail!" Zheng Zhongshi said angrily.

An assistant in Manila next to him said helplessly: "Mr. Zheng, if the crime of kidnapping is established, and there is a high probability that it will be established, then the other party will most likely submit materials and ask the prosecutor to prosecute you for the crime of sabotage. As you know, the other party's

Lawyer Lu Qianxing is a consultant to the Grand Procuratorate, and he seems to have been authorized to have his own office..."

"What? He is both a prosecutor and a lawyer? Isn't he a player and a football witness? Is this reasonable?! Is this judicial corruption?" Zheng Zhongshi rolled his eyes.

This assistant is a third-level senior defense attorney and is also a well-known name outside. At this time, he could only explain to him patiently with a wry smile: "In the court, the referee is the judge. If you use your example, the most he can do is kick the red ball."

, you can also kick the blue side; and he seems to rarely accept criminal defense cases now. It may be that he has some private agreement with the Grand Prosecutor's Office, so that he can get the authorization from the independent public prosecutor's office..."

He added: "But Mr. Zheng, this is not the point. What I mean is that with his relationship with the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, it should be very easy to entrust a prosecutor to prosecute you for sabotage crimes in a public prosecution case. At that time,

, you already have a criminal record, and you are likely to be severely sentenced for the crime of sabotage. Your two charges are both felonies in themselves. It is not impossible to say that the final cumulative sentence is increased to 15 years or more..."

"I was sentenced to 15 years for what I did. What the hell are you talking about?! Even if I just killed a few horses? I killed that slutty clerk? That's enough to sentence me to 15 years? There's nothing wrong with you, right?"

Zheng Zhongshi’s pent-up anger finally broke out. He was a little afraid of Manila. He just vented his anger on the young lawyer in front of him: "I have seen you flirting with each other for a long time! Are you threatening me with the man named Lu? Do you think I am stupid?"

?”???.

Sandanlu could only smile bitterly.

Manila frowned, "Mr. Zheng, what you are talking about is probably the last few polite words between me and lawyer Lu Qianxing, and we made an appointment for tea or something, right? Although, this is just a normal greeting, but if I lose your

Trust, I think, you should fire me and my team."

"Well, that's it!" Zheng Zhongshi said it yourself. I don't know how to say it. The young master introduced you. I'm going to fire you directly. It's like I don't know what's good or bad. It's just right for you to say it yourself.

.

Manila nodded: "Okay Mr. Zheng, after the expenses for the past few days are settled, I will send the bill to your house in the countryside."

Zheng Zhongshi rolled his eyes and thought to himself, why are you sending me to a country house? You are really confused.

San Duanlu, who had been smiling apologetically just now, also darkened his face, "Mr. Zheng, if you do not transfer the payable fees into our company's account in time within three days after receiving the bill, we will immediately send a lawyer's letter.

, will incur delayed late payment fees. In accordance with legal obligations, we will now notify you orally."

"Get out!" Zheng Zhongshi looked at this guy who was respectful at first and arrogant at the other. "Just tell me, are you human? You can fall out faster than turning the pages of a book!"

Several lawyers have already picked up their briefcases and filed out of Manila.

…

"What? They're all gone? Zheng Zhongshi fired them?" Lu Ming couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

Tie Xiaojia stuck out her tongue and said, "Yes!" She was the smartest. After asking a lawyer from the Manila team who walked out with a dark face, she immediately ran over to report the news to her master.

"Teacher Fifteen..." Tie Xiaojia stood in a straight line. Although she was several years younger than herself, she could not break the rules.

But it was Jennifer who came into the study sleepily holding a rag doll.

Seeing the outsider, Jennifer was stunned.

There were two doors in the study, one of which led directly to the inner suite. She came out from the inner room. She was a little dazed in her sleep. She thought she had just fallen asleep and her husband was still busy in the study, so she came to see him.

With a slight exclamation, Jennifer turned around and ran back. In panic, a white velvet slipper fell by the door.

Tie Xiaojia's face was full of astonishment, and suddenly an idea popped into his head. Could it be that Master imprisoned this little girl as a concubine? She was not allowed to have contact with outsiders? There are many perverted cases like this?

But then he waved his head hurriedly, what was he thinking about? Doesn’t Mistress Fifteen go to see her horse every day? Just today, she seems to have slept in?

Lu Ming waved his hand: "Okay, go ahead."

Although he didn't know that his apprentice thought of him as a perverted pervert for a moment, in his eyes, his real concubine, when he saw it today, it was obvious that she was just a young and careless little girl who was afraid of strangers.

Don't be embarrassed yourself, it's others who are embarrassed. This really makes sense.

…

In Jennifer's bedroom, she was lying on the bed holding a soft white pillow and crying. She seemed to hear footsteps, and when she peeked, it turned out to be her husband. She buried her little face in the pillow and cried louder in shame.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ming walked over and sat on the bed, feeling helpless. His wife was fine in other aspects, but she just had a child's mentality. It's sad that it's hard for adults to understand. Maybe she thought sugar was sweet, but it turned out to be sour.

Yes, you may cry.

"I promise you that I won't let them come to this room from now on. I won't let them enter the study room that has a door to the outside, okay?" As he spoke, Lu Ming rubbed his nose. This must be too unprincipled for him.

?What’s all this?

"No... no..." Jennifer's little face buried in the pillow shook hard and she choked, "I, I didn't know it was already ten o'clock, I, I didn't change my clothes, so I just let them see

Here we go...I'm not a good girl, not a good wife..."

Lu Ming was stunned, oh, it turned out to be because her appearance was not neat and did not match the education and cultivation she had always received.

However, when I heard her crying sadly and saying that she was "not a good wife..." and she was very serious, I felt like laughing for no reason.

"I, I don't know what's wrong... I've been sleeping until now..." Jennifer's little head was buried in the pillow hard, as if she was too ashamed to see anyone.

Lu Ming coughed and said, "It's my fault. I told Xiao Bi to turn off the alarm clock." He also found that this little girl was a bit better. Although it was because the alarm clock didn't go off, she wouldn't use these as excuses.

In fact, I have been living here for the past few days. The little girl really wakes up at five in the morning and goes to bed at eight in the evening. She also takes care of the horse every day. Moreover, since the horse was injured, she should be in a state of mental distress.

In the midst of pressure, it has been almost half a month, and I am afraid that she is very exhausted mentally and physically. It happened that yesterday I made an appointment with the horse doctor to come to check up on the horse, so I asked her to turn off her alarm clock, just to let her have a good rest today.

"No, no..." Jennifer shook her head.

"I asked someone to do it. Besides, I saw that you are too tired these days. Today, little Jenny was taken to the hospital for examination again. Someone will take good care of her. It will be of no use if you go. So, it's me

I want you to sleep in. Why, even if I order you to sleep in, it won’t work anymore?”

Little Jennifer raised her head, with a blushing face, sobbing, "Really, really?"

"Yes." Lu Ming nodded seriously.

"But, but..." Little Jennifer suddenly burst into tears again, "I, I just..."

Lu Ming smiled bitterly in his heart and began to talk nonsense: "That's our apprentice. What is an apprentice? He is our biological son and daughter. What does the biological daughter do when she sees her mother wearing pajamas? And she doesn't dare to look at you? What's more?

, your pajamas can be worn out, but your own daughter looked at you twice, it doesn’t matter."

"Really?" Jennifer's little face was filled with tears, and her beautiful and charming deep light blue eyes were filled with tears. Her pitiful little appearance was even more endearing, but she gradually stopped crying.

"But, but I'm barefoot..." Jennifer lowered her head again.

"It's okay, she didn't see it!" As he spoke, Lu Ming couldn't help but look over. At the legs of the lace pajamas, Jennifer's small and cute snow-white feet were not smeared with any toenail polish.

No modifications, but carefully maintained every day, clean, without a trace of blemishes, extremely tender feet, with faint blood vessels visible, particularly delicate and pure.

"Huh?" It seems that Jennifer lost her shoes because she ran away, and the soles of her snowy feet are slightly dusty. In fact, the carpet floor in the suite is cleaned spotlessly by the waiter every day, but the little girl's snowy feet are too pure.

Therefore, a little bit of gray looks very dazzling.

Lu Ming reached over, wiped away the little bit of dust with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Is it cold?" If there is dust on the little girl's feet, don't cry again.

But when he held this delicate little foot, Lu Ming's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

Jennifer let out a sweet smile and moved her little body upward. Suddenly, her eye circles turned red again. She hugged Lu Ming's thigh, buried her little head in Lu Ming's leg, and choked in a low voice.

Lu Ming has quickly loosened his hold on Qiao Zu, hugged her gently, and said with a smile: "Okay, stop crying, it's all my fault, I should have told you in advance!"

Jennifer shook her head, choked with sobs and whispered: "My master loves Jennifer, and Jennifer knows it. I, I think of my father. He is also as kind to me as my master..."

Lu Ming gently stroked her long, smooth chocolate-colored hair, sighed softly in his heart, and said softly: "From now on, if you have any grievances, just tell me, and treat me as your father."

Nodding, Jennifer hugged Lu Ming's thigh tightly, her little face pressed tightly against the leg, and whispered, "Dad, treasured father..."

Lu Ming was startled for a moment, and then he realized that the Greifenian language Jennifer spoke was slightly similar in pronunciation to the Chinese words.

The pronunciation of "Dad" is indeed a kind of affectionate term for father in the Grifenni language. This is probably because when children are born and first learn to speak, several of their speech sounds are similar. In previous lives, in many places around the world, the pronunciation of "Father" has a meaning similar to "Dad".

The same is true now in this other world or parallel world.

As for "Bao Fu", the exact pronunciation of "Bao Fu" is closer to "Bao Fu". It is a nickname and endearment for husband in the Grifenni language, similar to the "husband" of my previous life.

Dad, husband? Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh, but in his heart, he felt even more strange.

Seeing this little girl hugging her legs harder, although she rarely enjoys the coquettish time in her husband's arms, she can't help it.

He patted her shoulder gently and coughed: "Okay, get up, it's time to have breakfast!"

"Oh..." Jennifer hurriedly let go of Lu Ming's legs. She was very obedient. However, she saw that her husband's posture when he walked out was a little weird, and he shook his little head, not knowing why.

…

In the afternoon, in the small conference room on the third floor of the city hall, Lu Ming came to attend the semi-monthly municipal committee meeting. This was Lu Ming's second visit to the city hall since the parliament and municipal committee had just been formed.

Municipal committee meetings are held once every fortnight, and local council meetings are held once a month, at the end of the month.

In addition, there may also be temporary meetings arranged for urgent matters.

The affairs officer sitting next to Lu Ming was still Li Zhongliang. He usually stayed on duty in the municipal committee member's office here.

There is nothing special. The main content of the discussion is some bills that may be proposed by the new parliament at the end of the month.
