Urban Film and Television: Being taken home by Xu Hongdou at the beginning

After the two finished talking about the case, Xu Hongmi was very satisfied with Qin Shi's professional knowledge. She looked at Qin Shi and thanked him sincerely, "Lawyer Qin, it seems that I have found the right person, Quan Jing. I will trouble you more in the future."

Qin Shi smiled and said politely: "Ms. Xu, you are welcome. This is what we should do. Don't worry, there will be no problem with your case."

Xu Hongmi felt relieved after hearing that. After they had finished talking about most of the things, she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Lawyer Qin, the rest of the matter will be handed over to you. I will go back and wait for your news. That's all for today."

Qin Shi originally wanted to talk to Xu Hongmi to see if he could find out what the relationship between her and Xu Hongdou was, but now that she was leaving, Qin Shi didn't want to just let it go.

Qin Shi suddenly had an idea and found an excuse: "Ms. Xu, I still have some questions to ask. I think it's lunch time now. How about we go somewhere else to talk?"

Xu Hongmi frowned when she heard this. She thought Qin Shi couldn't handle the case, so she quickly asked, "Lawyer Qin, is there any problem with the case?"

Qin Shi's heart tightened, but she remained calm on the surface. She thought to herself: "I seemed a little anxious and almost got exposed." But she was an experienced lawyer after all, and she quickly regained her composure.

Qin Shi looked at Xu Hongmi and explained with a smile, "No, Ms. Xu, I just want to get a better understanding of your family's situation. In this way, if there are any other questions or matters that need attention during the handling of the case, we can prepare in advance and better deal with various possible situations."

After hearing this, Xu Hongmi's worries immediately dissipated. She showed a relaxed smile and said to Qin Shi, "So that's how it is. Lawyer Qin is really thoughtful. Why don't we have dinner together in the restaurant downstairs and chat while eating? This is convenient and will not affect your work time in the afternoon."

Qin Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad that she had deftly resolved the awkward situation and successfully brought the topic back on track. She nodded in agreement and followed Xu Hongmi to the restaurant downstairs.

In an elegant western restaurant not far from Quan Jing downstairs, Xu Hongmi and Qin Shi walked into the door side by side. They politely signaled to the waiter, hoping to find a relatively quiet place for better communication.

Xu Hongmi said to the waiter, "Please arrange a quieter seat for us, thank you." The waiter smiled and nodded, leading them to a corner by the window, which was beautifully decorated and relatively secluded, ensuring that their conversation would not be disturbed.

Following the waiter's guidance, they came to a quiet corner and sat down, and then Qin Shi and Xu Hongmi each ordered a simple meal.

While waiting for the food to be served, Qin Shi thought this was a good opportunity to ask Xu Hongmi some specific information about her family. So, she looked at Xu Hongmi with a smile and said, "Ms. Xu, can you tell me more about your family situation? This will help me better understand the background of the case."

Xu Hongmi looked at Qin Shi and thought for a while, then replied: "Lawyer Qin, since we are already outside, you can call me Sister Hongmi, and I will call you Xiao Shi, which sounds more intimate."

Qin Shi heard that Xu Hongmi's attitude towards her had changed, no longer as polite and distant as before. She realized that Xu Hongmi might have recognized her and was willing to establish a closer relationship with her.

So, she quickly responded with a smile: "Sister Hongmi, I won't be polite, I will call you that from now on! Don't worry, I will do my best for your case. Now, can you tell me about the situation at home?"

Xu Hongmi nodded in agreement. Then, she began to talk about her family situation: "Actually, my family is not well off. My parents have retired and are enjoying a leisurely life. I also have a younger sister, but she resigned some time ago and is now focusing on her own affairs."

After listening, Qin Shi nodded slightly to show her understanding. She noticed that Xu Hongmi did not mention information such as her husband or children, but she was not in a hurry to ask these questions. Instead, she gave Xu Hongmi enough space and time to talk about what she thought was important.

Seeing that Qin Shi did not interrupt her, Xu Hongmi continued, "Apart from family members, my family's financial situation is relatively stable. My parents have a pension, although it is not much, but it is enough for them to live. As for my sister and I, we both have our own work income."

Qin Shi listened carefully and wrote down the key information. She knew that these details might play a crucial role in the analysis and judgment of the case. Qin Shi, who was serious about her work, would not let personal reasons affect the case, so she listened carefully to Xu Hongmi's narration.

When Xu Hongmi mentioned that Xu Hongdou was currently busy filming a video, Qin Shi was 100% sure that Xu Hongmi and Xu Hongdou were real sisters.

She couldn't help but sigh that the world was so small that she actually met her rival's sister in such a situation. But she quickly adjusted her mood and didn't let her inner surprise show.

In order not to arouse Xu Hongmi's suspicion, Qin Shi quickly sorted out her thoughts and re-entered the discussion about the case with Xu Hongmi. They ate and talked, and the atmosphere was harmonious and warm.

Soon, the dishes were served, and the two continued to talk happily. As time went by, they gradually explained everything clearly, and Qin Shi felt very satisfied because her goal was finally achieved.

Finally, when they finished their meal, both of them left the restaurant with smiles on their faces and in a good mood. Qin Shi even took the initiative to pay the bill, showing her generosity and generosity. This move made Xu Hongmi have a better impression of her.

After returning to the law firm, Qin Shi walked straight into her office and sat down. At this time, Lina walked in and looked at her with a puzzled look, as if she wanted to say something but was hesitant.

Qin Shi certainly understood what Lina wanted to ask, but she did not intend to tell Lina this secret. After all, it involved her personal privacy.

Seeing that Qin Shi had no intention of speaking, Lina had to start working with a lot of questions in her mind. Slowly, she gradually forgot about the matter and devoted herself to her work.

On the other side, Xu Hongmi returned home and felt a little lonely looking at the empty house. After thinking for a while, she took out her cell phone and called Ye Fan, preparing to tell him that she had found a lawyer today.

As soon as the phone call reached Xu Hongmi, he couldn't wait to speak.

"Is Xiaofan busy? I have something to tell you."

When Ye Fan heard Xu Hongmi's words, he thought something went wrong with her case and quickly expressed his concern.

"What's the matter, sister? Is there a problem with the case? Don't worry, I can't leave right now. I'll ask my friends to help you solve it right away."

Xu Hongmi felt a warm current flowing through her heart as she listened to Ye Fan's caring words on the other end of the phone, and a strange emotion grew in her heart.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Hongmi quickly suppressed her thoughts and said to Ye Fan, "Don't worry, Xiaofan, I'm fine here. I just called you to tell you that I went to see a lawyer today, and the other party said that there is no problem with my case and I will definitely win."

Ye Fan was relieved when he heard this. "Sister Hongmi, you scared me to death. I thought there was something wrong with the case."

Xu Hongmi found it a little funny to hear this, and then she said to Ye Fan, "Don't worry, Xiaofan. Don't worry. I believe in Qin Shi's level."

When Ye Fan heard the name Qin Shi, his body seemed to be struck by lightning and he was so surprised that he couldn't move.

He didn't know that Qin Shi had gone back to work, but he knew about Quan Jing's affairs. It seemed that Qin Shi had taken over Quan Jing's shares.

Seeing Ye Fan didn't say anything, Xu Hongmi asked worriedly, "What's wrong, Xiaofan? Are you listening to me?"

Ye Fan came back to his senses after hearing this, thought for a moment and asked Xu Hongmi, "Which law firm did you go to, sister?"

Xu Hongmi didn't know why Ye Fan asked which law firm, but she still answered, "I went to Quanjing Law Firm. Is there any problem, Xiaofan?"

Ye Fan was even more shocked when he heard the word Quan Jing. He didn't expect Xu Hongmi to go to Quan Jing Law Firm. Could it be that she also knew Qin Shi? Thinking of this, Ye Fan hurriedly asked, "Sister, who are you talking about?"

Xu Hongmi was stunned for a moment after hearing Ye Fan's question, then smiled and said: "Qin Shi, she is a senior partner of Quanjing Law Firm! Any questions?"

After hearing what Xu Hongmi said, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a little confused. He didn't know what the relationship between Xu Hongmi and Qin Shi was, but he felt that there must be an unknown story between them. So, he continued to ask: "Sister, their law firm has a lot of senior partners, right? Are you familiar with Qin Shi?"

Xu Hongmi smiled and said, "Qin Shi is indeed amazing. I have a deep impression of her. However, this is our first meeting today, so we are not very familiar with each other."

After hearing Xu Hongmi's words, the last glimmer of hope in Ye Fan's heart was shattered. The Qin Shi that Xu Hongmi mentioned must be Qin Shi, and no one else.

"Sister, there's no problem. I also know Quan Jing. It's okay to leave your matter to them." Ye Fan and Qin Shi's relationship must not be known to Xu Hongmi. He hurriedly answered Xu Hongmi's questions and did not dare to ask about Qin Shi again.

After hanging up the phone with Xu Hongmi, Ye Fan frowned, knowing that things might have become complicated. So he quickly called Qin Shi, but heard a familiar prompt tone: "The user you dialed is busy, please call again later..."

Ye Fan sighed, he knew he had been blocked. This was not the first time this had happened, he encountered this problem every time he tried to contact Qin Shi. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling helpless.

Then, Ye Fan tried to call Tang Xin again, hoping to get some help or advice. The call was quickly connected, and Tang Xin asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Ye Fan told Tang Xin the details of what happened, including the misunderstanding between him and Qin Shi and his dilemma of not being able to contact Qin Shi. After listening, Tang Xin opened her mouth wide and said in surprise: "What a coincidence! What bad luck."

Ye Fan smiled helplessly and said to Tang Xin, "Sister, can you stop gloating over other people's misfortunes? What should we do now?"

Tang Xin suppressed her smile and consoled him, "Don't worry, I will help you. I will go back tomorrow morning and wait until Qin Shi and I get to know each other better. Maybe we can find a suitable time for you to meet Qin Shi and explain everything properly."

"Okay, this is all we can do. Thank you, Sister Tang." After Ye Fan finished speaking, he chatted with Tang Xin for a few more words and then hung up the phone.
