When Leyun completed all the procedures regarding William Lu's case, filed the materials, and returned home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

She turned the handle and opened the door. There was no light in the room.There was only a faint light from the computer screen on the sofa.

"Back." Lu Yin's voice came from the sofa.

"Yeah." Le Yun agreed, taking off her coat and walking towards him.

Lu Yin moved to the side and let Le Yun sit next to him.

"I made homemade popcorn, do you want to try it?"

Lu Yin picked up a bowl of popcorn that smelled of creamy vanilla and handed it to her.

"Thank you," Le Yun smiled, picked up one and put it in her mouth, "I've known you for so long, and this is the first time I know you can make popcorn. Not bad, fragrant and sweet."

As she said that, she sighed, "I've been seeing too many bitter things lately, so eat something sweet to balance it out."

"Have William Lu's affairs been settled?" Lu Yin stretched out his arms and put his arms around Le Yun's shoulders.

"It's taken care of." She gently leaned her head on Lu Yin's shoulder, "His subsequent appeals may be handed over to other firms."

"I know," Lu Yin put the popcorn in his mouth, "Lu Zhenting called me."

"Our boss is very depressed. He probably feels that he didn't handle it well enough and offended his customers."

"Tell him it has nothing to do with him."

Lu Yin put the bowl of popcorn aside:

"Lu Zhenting called me. He changed law firms mainly because a law firm provided him with a new defense strategy, and -" Lu Yin paused, "He told me that he also didn't want your position to be compromised. It’s difficult.”

"Actually, there's nothing to be embarrassed about," Le Yun twitched her lips, "I just listened to the boss's words."

Her eyes looked lonely at the black TV screen.

"What's wrong? Is there any communication problem with Chen Zonghan at work?"

"So..." Le Yun frowned and shook her head randomly, "Not entirely."

"So profound?" Lu Yin raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"From the perspective of personal moral bottom line, I completely cannot approve of his strategy. However, if I were the boss of a law firm, I would not necessarily handle it better than him. Therefore, even if I am depressed, I will still follow his strategy. Do what you say.”

"If you are not happy at work, have you ever considered taking a break, or simply leaving Zonghan Law Firm?"

Le Yun smiled, raised her eyebrows, looked at Lu Yin with half-squinted eyes, and deliberately showed obvious sullenness in her tone:

"What, Mr. Lu? Are you imitating others and doing some boring tricks like 'I'll support you'?"

"Of course not," Lu Yin quickly denied, "Even if I want to support you, our Jiale lawyer is not someone who can live idle. However, I still want you to know that no matter what happens, I will always be there for you. You're the one who takes care of everything. You just follow your own ideas and do what you want to do. Everything else is up to me."

Le Yun agreed and rubbed her head against Lu Yin's neck, and Lu Yin hugged her tightly.Le Yun closed her eyes gently. Lu Yin's body smelled like the clothes had been washed and exposed to the sun.The smell made her feel very reassured.

She breathed deeply the intoxicating smell, and she fell asleep without knowing when.

Listening to my ears, my lover's breathing gradually calmed down.Lu Yin lowered his head and kissed her gently.He wanted to pick her up and put her on the bed in the bedroom.But as soon as she moved, she made a squeaking sound like a kitten and shrank in his arms.

Lu Yin smiled fondly. He kept his body still as much as possible, stretched his arms as much as possible, reached Le Yun's coat on the arm of the sofa, and covered her body.

"Sleep well." He whispered, then hugged her tightly and closed the laptop screen.

The whole room suddenly fell into darkness.

That night, in the boundless night of Bincheng, the two lovers clung to each other tightly.

For the first time, Lu Yin longed for the feeling of home.

The next morning, when Le Yun woke up, she found herself lying on her large and soft master bed.And Lu Yin has already left.There is a note on the bedside table:

There are sandwiches on the table, warm them up and eat them.Love you.

Le Yun got up and came to the restaurant. Sure enough, there were freshly squeezed juice and bacon and egg sandwiches on the table.

She put the plate in the microwave, and her mood began to jump as the sandwiches started spinning in the oven.

After arriving at Zonghan Law Firm, it was impossible for Le Yun to count how many times she had stood at the door of Chen Zonghan's office.

She hesitated for a moment, then knocked on the door.

"Come in." Chen Zonghan's voice came from the room.

Leyun opened the door and walked in.

"Le Yun," Chen Zonghan looked up and saw that it was her. As usual, he greeted her cordially and asked her to sit down.

"I've been a little tired recently and want to take a break." Le Yun handed in a leave application form.

Chen Zonghan's face froze for a moment. He put the application form on the table and looked at it. Then he turned to Le Yun and said with a half-smile:

"Are you asking for leave? Are you really tired and want to rest, or is there something that you can't tell me?"

"Inconvenient?" Le Yun frowned. After she came to work at Zonghan Law Firm, this was the first time she heard Chen Zonghan talk to her in such a "weird" way:

"Didn't Li Xiao tell you yet?" Chen Zonghan chuckled, "The office building he wanted to rent has been sealed for rectification because it failed the fire inspection. Since his law firm cannot be opened, why should you be anxious? Could you please take a day off and go over to help?”
