Thinking of this, Qi Tongwei took a deep breath, forced himself to concentrate, and began to study the case. As time passed, he seemed to forget about time and fatigue, and was completely immersed in the case.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door. Qi Tongwei looked up impatiently, only to see a tall woman in a red dress standing at the door. The woman had delicate makeup on, with wavy hair draped over her shoulders, and her red lips parted slightly: "Excuse me, are you lawyer Qi Tongwei?"

Qi Tongwei was stunned for a moment and nodded subconsciously.

Seeing this, the woman raised a charming smile, walked up to him with elegant steps, and gently placed a business card on his desk: "Hello, my name is Chen Xue, you can call me Xue'er."

Qi Tongwei picked up the business card. There was only a name and a phone number on it, without any company name or job title information. He looked up with some doubt, looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, and a trace of vigilance rose in his heart: "Excuse me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Chen Xue did not answer his question. Instead, she walked around the desk, came to his side, leaned down, and whispered in his ear: "I heard that Lawyer Qi is best at handling difficult cases..."

As he spoke, a faint scent of perfume entered Qi Tongwei's nose, and he subconsciously stepped back, trying to keep a distance from Chen Xue. However, Chen Xue's movements were faster. She grabbed Qi Tongwei's arm, pressed her body tightly against him, and her red lips almost touched his ears. She said in an extremely ambiguous tone: "I need your help..."

Chen Xue's breathing became more and more rapid, and the hot air she exhaled sprayed on Qi Tongwei's ears, making him feel hot. Qi Tongwei wanted to push her away, but found that he was tightly imprisoned by Chen Xue's seemingly weak body and could not move.

"Lawyer Qi, I know you have the ability..." Chen Xue's voice was charming and hoarse, as if it had magic power, which made Qi Tongwei's brain go blank. He felt his heartbeat start to speed up, and the blood seemed to be concentrated in one place.

"I..." Qi Tongwei wanted to refuse, but the words turned into: "What do you want me to help you with?"

Chen Xue heard his answer, a triumphant smile appeared on her lips, she stood up, took out a photo from her bag, and put it on Qi Tongwei's desk. The photo showed a middle-aged man wearing a suit, with his hair combed meticulously, and a disgusting greasy smile on his face.

"I want you to help me ruin his reputation." Chen Xue pointed at the man in the photo and said word by word, her tone full of resentment and hatred.

Qi Tongwei looked at the man in the photo, then at the beautiful yet dangerous woman in front of him, and an inexplicable excitement surged in his heart. He felt his blood boiling, as if a wild beast was about to break out of his body.

"Okay." Qi Tongwei picked up the photo and a playful smile appeared on his lips. He wanted to see what kind of deep hatred could make this woman destroy this man at all costs.

Chen Xue was very satisfied with Qi Tongwei's answer. She picked up the red wine on the table and poured a glass for Qi Tongwei and herself.

"It's a pleasure working with you." Chen Xue raised her glass and gestured to Qi Tongwei.

Qi Tongwei clinked glasses with her, and the red liquid flowed down his throat, with a hint of sweetness and bitterness. He looked at Chen Xue in front of him, and he knew that he had embarked on a road of no return.

The next day, when Qi Tongwei arrived at the company, he felt that something was not right. His colleagues looked at him strangely and whispered to each other, as if they were discussing some unspeakable secret.

"Hey, have you heard? Qi Tongwei was in the office with a woman last night..."

"Really? No way, he just came to the company..."

"Who knows? The young people nowadays..."

Qi Tongwei pretended not to hear and walked straight to his seat. As soon as he sat down, Li Qiang came over with an ambiguous smile on his face: "Tongwei, it's great, you've only been here for a few days and you've already hooked up with a rich woman?"

Qi Tongwei frowned. He knew that Li Qiang was referring to Chen Xue's visit to him last night. It seemed that the news of last night had spread throughout the company.

"Don't talk nonsense, we are just ordinary friends." Qi Tongwei said lightly, not wanting to pay attention to Li Qiang's gossip.

"Ordinary friend? Would an ordinary friend come to the office in the middle of the night? And dressed like that..." Li Qiang said, deliberately lowering his voice, imitating Chen Xue's tone last night: "Lawyer Qi, I know you have the ability..."

Qi Tongwei stood up suddenly, grabbed Li Qiang by the collar, and yelled, "Shut up!"

Qi Tongwei stood up suddenly, grabbed Li Qiang by the collar, and yelled, "Shut the fuck up! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Li Qiang was shocked by Qi Tongwei's sudden outburst. He didn't expect that Qi Tongwei, who usually looked gentle, could have such a violent side. He subconsciously wanted to struggle, but found that Qi Tongwei's hand was so strong that he couldn't move at all.

"What? You want to fight? Come on!" Qi Tongwei pushed Li Qiang away and clapped his hands in disdain, as if he was brushing off some dirt. "You're such a weakling, I can knock you down with just one hand!"

Colleagues around were attracted by the commotion and gathered to watch, but no one dared to step forward to dissuade him. Li Qiang was humiliated by Qi Tongwei in public, his face flushed red, he pointed at Qi Tongwei's nose, unable to speak for a long time, and finally could only angrily say: "You wait!", and then fled the scene in disgrace.

Qi Tongwei looked at Li Qiang's fleeing back, and a sneer appeared on his lips. He had long disliked Li Qiang, who relied on his seniority to show off his power in the office and bully newcomers. Now he took this opportunity to kill a chicken to scare the monkey, so that everyone would know that he, Qi Tongwei, was not someone to be trifled with.

"What are you looking at? Get the hell back to work!" Qi Tongwei looked around at his colleagues who were watching the fun and shouted harshly.

Colleagues were intimidated by Qi Tongwei's momentum, and they all lowered their heads and scattered.

Qi Tongwei returned to his seat, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his excitement. He knew that his actions just now were a bit impulsive, but he did not regret it. He was not the kind of person who would allow others to bully him. If anyone dared to provoke him, he would definitely return it tenfold!

At this time, there was a gentle knock on the office door. Qi Tongwei looked up and saw a tall woman in a black business suit standing at the door. The woman had long black hair casually draped over her shoulders, and her delicate makeup could not hide the heroic spirit between her eyebrows.

"Lawyer Qi, can I come in?" the woman asked, her voice clear and pleasant, as sweet as an oriole.

"Please come in." Qi Tongwei motioned the woman to come in.

The woman walked to Qi Tongwei's desk and sat elegantly in the chair opposite him. She took out a business card from her bag and handed it to Qi Tongwei: "Hello, Lawyer Qi, my name is Su Qing, and I am the legal director of Lu Group."

Qi Tongwei took the business card and took a look. It had the words "Su Qing" printed on it, as well as her position and contact information. Lu's Group was a well-known leading enterprise in the city. Why would their legal director come to see him in person? Qi Tongwei was full of doubts.

"Hello, Director Su, what can I do for you?" Qi Tongwei asked.

Su Qing smiled slightly and said, "Lawyer Qi, I heard that you took over a case yesterday. Is it about the Chen Group?"

Qi Tongwei was shocked. How could Su Qing know this? Could it be that...

"Director Su, what do you want to say?" Qi Tongwei asked in a deep voice, with a hint of vigilance in his tone.

Su Qing did not directly answer Qi Tongwei's question, but took out a document from her bag and put it on his desk: "Lawyer Qi, this is what our President Lu meant, I hope you can seriously consider it."

Qi Tongwei picked up the document, opened it, and his face suddenly turned ashen.

This is an acquisition agreement, and the target of the acquisition is Chen Xue's company! And the acquisition price is...

"One yuan?" Qi Tongwei raised his head suddenly and looked at Su Qing in disbelief. "Your Lu Group wants to acquire the Chen Group with one yuan?"

Su Qing nodded, still with a professional smile on her face, as if she was talking about something very ordinary: "That's right, Lawyer Qi, our President Lu said that as long as you agree to give up the case of representing the Chen Group and persuade Miss Chen Xue to sign this agreement, this one yuan will be yours."

Qi Tongwei looked at the agreement in front of him, and it seemed as if a flame was burning in his heart. He finally understood why Su Qing knew about this matter, and why the Lu Group suddenly attacked the Chen Group. All this was because...

Qi Tongwei slammed the agreement on the table with a loud noise. The two words "one yuan" in the document seemed to mock his self-esteem and bottom line. He raised his head, his eyes as sharp as a knife, piercing Su Qing's delicate but cold face: "Director Su, are you insulting my IQ, or testing my courage?"

Su Qing still maintained an elegant smile, seemingly unconcerned about Qi Tongwei's anger: "Lawyer Qi, you worry too much, this is just a normal business negotiation. You also know that the business world is like a battlefield, where the weak are the prey of the strong and the winners take it all. Mr. Lu appreciates your talent, so he is willing to give you this opportunity. I hope you can recognize the situation and not waste your future for a case that is doomed to fail."

"Opportunity? Future?" Qi Tongwei sneered, stood up suddenly, and approached Su Qing, "Do you think I would sell my conscience for money like those profit-seeking guys? I tell you, I will take this case! I will definitely help the Chen Group to the end!"
