Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder

Mother Zhang sighed. She didn't blame others for thinking this way, but her son-in-law himself didn't want to, and she couldn't let them be matchmakers. She wasn't that ruthless, and not stopping her son-in-law from remarrying was already the best attitude.

With the approval of Zhang's mother, the busybodies also had an idea in their minds, and they turned around and wanted to introduce their niece to Sun Junjie. The niece's personal conditions were a little worse, but Sun Junjie was married for the second time and had a child, so the two of them were a good match.

People who like to gossip thought that Sun Junjie would be very happy to find a virgin girl for his second marriage, but they didn't expect that he would reject them at the very beginning.

Sun Junjie felt that his attitude was already very good. He wanted to remarry, but he had never thought about finding a partner with less conditions than himself. He heard from his old classmates that Ye Zhiqiu was still single, not only had he not married, but he had not even had any experience in love.

He came up with an idea and asked other classmates to invite people out under the pretext of a class reunion.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't like attending class reunions, but the organizer said it was just a small gathering of a few people. She happened to have something to talk to the other party about, and thought it would be awkward for the two of them to have dinner together alone. Having more familiar friends would make the atmosphere better, so she agreed.

When she got there, she found Sun Junjie was also there. She was stunned for a moment but didn't say anything. They were all classmates, so she had no right to stop him from attending the dinner. She just reminded herself to ask who was attending next time.

As classmates, we have witnessed each other at our ugliest sides, so there is no need for so many politeness at the dinner table. We just eat and drink our fill before getting down to business.

Ye Zhiqiu was not hungry, and stopped eating after a few tries. She was still not used to the food outside. She preferred to eat at home, even a bowl of egg and vegetable noodles cooked by herself was better than the big fish and meat outside.

She didn't eat, but the other students ate very happily. After the meal, the organizer remembered to talk about business. It was not a private matter. Ye Zhiqiu wanted to ask the other party to help introduce a good embroidery thread supplier. Someone in this classmate's family was in the clothing business, and she couldn't find a suitable supplier, so she tried a new channel.

Embroidery thread is not difficult to buy, but the thread she wanted this time was not only of good quality, but also had to come in a variety of colors, more than a hundred colors. The quality of the company she usually used was a little lower, and some colors could not be produced.

She was unwilling to compromise, mainly because the embroidery was a large piece and would be sent abroad for awards and exhibitions. The students who organized the event thought it was a difficult task at first, so they invited other students to have dinner together in advance. When they knew that they were just helping to introduce suppliers, they were relieved.

I should have known not to invite so many classmates. It's the party he organized, so it's his job to pay the bill. It's not a big sum of money and it's an unnecessary expense.

How could Ye Zhiqiu let the other party pay the bill? She had already found an excuse to leave and paid the bill. After finishing the business, everyone chatted about the current hot news and discussed the cross-border mergers and acquisitions that were hot in the news every day. It was said that the lawyers involved would definitely make a lot of money.

This is the first time in the country's history that a merger and acquisition case worth tens of billions of dollars has taken place. It is a good thing for young lawyers like them to be able to go in and gain experience even if they don't make money.

Ye Zhiqiu did not join the discussion. She was also involved in the merger. If she spoke up, it would seem like she was showing off. If she didn't speak up, it would not be good if her classmates found out. The best way was to keep quiet. If someone asked about it later, she could use the confidentiality agreement to explain it.

They were all in the same industry, and had endless things to talk about when talking about the case. However, Sun Junjie was a layman. He could understand every word, but didn't understand anything when they were put together.

He didn't understand and didn't want to leave early. Seeing that Ye Zhiqiu didn't say anything, he wanted to move over to her and chat, but unfortunately he failed.

"I have classes tomorrow, so I'm leaving now!" She was not lying. She did have classes, but they were not classroom lessons. Instead, she was teaching first-year undergraduate students on behalf of her tutor.

The students present had long known that she was studying for a doctorate. As a doctoral student, it was not unusual for her to occasionally teach undergraduates. When Sun Junjie saw her leaving, he immediately followed her, even pretending to see her off.

"Okay! You kid, just tell me why you're not at home to be a babysitter today. It turns out it was premeditated."

"It's a bit late for you to pursue classmate Ye. I'm afraid it will be difficult."

The students present included both men and women, and they were not optimistic about Sun Junjie's pursuit of Ye Zhiqiu. They had not been together for four years in college, and it would be even more difficult to be together after graduation.

Ye Zhiqiu has never lacked suitors. How could Sun Junjie, a second marriage, win the heart of a beautiful woman?

"Okay, stop worrying about this. Ye Zhiqiu isn't a love-brained person and will handle his own affairs."

When Sun Junjie chased him out the door, Ye Zhiqiu had already called a taxi.

"You really don't want me to take you home?"

"I don't believe it. It's just past eight o'clock, it's still early." She didn't need him to send her off even at midnight. If the security in the capital is not good, then there will be no safe place in the whole country.

Sun Junjie was disappointed, but he found an excuse to go back to school the next day.

"You want to study for a postgraduate degree while working? There's no point asking me. I'm not familiar with this."

"It's okay, can I buy you a meal?"

"Sorry, I eat in the cafeteria." If she didn't have to maintain her manners at school, she would have wanted to curse.

Sun Junjie was rejected again and again, feeling somewhat angry, but in order to achieve his goal, he stayed in school. He waited until lunch time, and then he appeared in front of Ye Zhiqiu again. If he didn't want to eat with him, then he could go to the cafeteria to accompany him.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect that he would become more and more shameless. He followed her all the way to the cafeteria, and even sat next to her after getting the food. But the cafeteria was a public space, and she couldn't say no to him.

Sun Junjie was like a cat stealing fish, and finally he could save some of his frustration when he met Ye Zhiqiu's helpless eyes. He seemed to have found a way to deal with Ye Zhiqiu. It was useless to pursue her outside the school, and he might get beaten if he pestered her too much. But inside the school, she had to pay attention to her image, which made it much easier for him.

From that day on, Sun Junjie would go to the school every few days to have dinner with Ye Zhiqiu. All the teachers and students in the law department knew that Ye Zhiqiu had a passionate and persistent pursuer.

Except for a few individuals, everyone else advised Ye Zhiqiu to carefully consider Sun Junjie's pursuit, as the two of them looked very compatible.

"I don't want to be a stepmother." With just one sentence, she retorted to all those who tried to persuade her.

Those who made jokes about the two of them were also very embarrassed. They didn't expect that Sun Junjie looked like a decent person, was married at such a young age, and even had a child who was already a few years old.

Everyone was too embarrassed to blame Ye Zhiqiu and said that Sun Junjie was a bad guy. How could a divorced man come to pursue a female PhD student from their school? He had no nerve and brought shame to them all.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't want to see Sun Junjie, so he simply used the excuse of being busy with the lawsuit and asked for a leave from his tutor, saying that he would return to school after the lawsuit was over. Liberal arts students mainly write articles, and unlike science students who need to do various experiments in the laboratory, they can write anywhere, and the tutor agreed without hesitation.
