Chapter 1742: Was it necessary?
“Don’t talk nonsense,” Li Yuchen quickly interrupted. “If you leave, how will the law firm continue to operate? Others may not know, but don’t you think I know that the law firm’s current status is all because of you? It’s all because you have a wide network, and you’re on good terms with President Nian and Mr. Xiao…”
“You don’t have to worry. With these two friends, their companies will dump a lot of cases on you. Anyway, you won’t starve to death. If you leave, they definitely won’t cooperate with me. I’ll suffer even more.”
“You don’t beat around the bush at all.” An Lan shook her head and picked up her coffee cup again. Her expression was solemn, “I’m afraid that this will bring trouble to Nian and Mr. Xiao, especially Mr. Xiao. There are a lot of public artistes down there. I might be able to dig out some clues from the lawyer letters I sent to some celebrities. I’m worried that the celebrities I’ve worked with will be affected.”
Li Yuchen’s heart skipped a beat at her words. “I’ll quickly go and find those netizens who spread your private information.”
However, Li Yuchen still arrived too late. There were too many netizens who felt that there were too many people who had nothing better to do.
The matter of An Lan’s sister, An Ning, being a mistress was once again exposed. The matter of An Lan suing an Ning for compensation made some people even more indignant. There were even people who openly slandered An Lan and an Ning as mistresses on the Internet.
Following that, the matter of An Lan acting as a lawyer for famous artists such as Ji Nuanyi and Yan Su was also exposed. As a result, some netizens began to question the character of Ji Nuanyi and Yan Su. Some celebrities quickly canceled their collaboration with Zhenyuan and began to distance themselves from her.
An Lan personally made a phone call to apologize. “Yan Su, I’m really sorry. I’ve implicated you for no reason. At this point, it’s better for you to publicly terminate your collaboration with me.”
“Sister An Lan, there’s no need to publicly announce it,” Yan Su said gently. “If the netizens want to scold me, go ahead. A mere civil case won’t affect my current status.”
“Thank you so much.” An Lan was especially grateful. “But in the current situation, I don’t think I’m suitable to represent you in your case for the time being.”
“HMM… that’s good too.” Yan Su also understood that now wasn’t the time to “act against the wind”, “Don’t worry. I asked Liu Xi to look for you for some business cases. I still believe in your ability. Besides, no lawyer can win forever. There are too many things happening on the internet every day. After this, things will get better.”
An Lan was slightly relieved. Although there were too many malicious people on the internet, she still had real friends in her life.
..
The next day, she went to Sheng Ting for a meeting with Nian Junting and Xiao Si.
In the conference room, Xiao Si said with concern, “An Lan, you haven’t slept well in the past two days. Do you need help? Your photo has been posted on the Internet. You need to be careful.”
An Lan looked serious. Although she had started to sue those who spread her personal information, the police needed time to build a case, and some of the information had already been spread. That was the most troublesome part.
Nian Junting rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows and said, “You’ve had a really bad year. I thought that Xiao Si was going to get married, and that you should find a boyfriend as soon as possible this year. However, seeing how unlucky you are, I don’t think you’ll be able to get a boyfriend even if I forced you to.”
An Lan: “…”
Was he trying to comfort her, or was he trying to stab her in the back.
Xiao Si slammed the table and said unhappily, “Tingting, An Lan is already having a hard time in her career, and you still want to stab her in the back? Is that necessary?”
