Time Travel: The Queen's Coronation

"Chief Prosecutor, what's wrong again?" Zhang Mu called me out anxiously.

"Mr. Wei, please help me. Lawyer Xu not only ignored me but also sent me a lawyer's letter to warn me!" Zhang Mu felt very aggrieved.

"She sent a lawyer's letter saying you did something that really pissed her off?"

"I didn't!" Zhang Mu denied it directly.

"Really? Can you guarantee it? Are you sure?" My three questions made Zhang Mu shrink back a little.

"Yes, but not this excessive!" Zhang Mu's attitude softened.

"So you did something excessive, causing Xu Jing to resort to legal means to protect her rights. So tell me, what did you do?"

"I didn't do anything. I just waited for her at her company door after get off work. I sent her good morning and good night text messages every morning and evening, and occasionally sent her flowers and snacks. These are all normal ways of pursuing her!"

"Normal? First of all, Xu Jing has already rejected you. You are unilaterally harassing her! Xu Jing is being merciful by not blocking you or having security kick you out."

"She has already blocked all my contact information!"

"Her attitude is so clear, why are you still so persistent?"

"But what's wrong with liking someone?"

"There's nothing wrong with Xu Jing not liking you! Why do you insist on letting her be with you?"

"But pursuing her is my right!"

"It's her right to reject you!"

I kept sabotaging Zhang Mu and made him feel very aggrieved. It was really funny to see this strong middle-aged man in a suit lowering his head in front of me like a child who had made a mistake.

"I really like her, why can't she look at me?" Zhang Mu said dejectedly.

"What do you like about her? There's more than just Xu Jing in this world, so why would you want to hang yourself on just one tree? Besides, you're not bad, so there should be a lot of people who like you. Why are you so obsessed with it?"

"There are thousands of women in the world, but I only want to be with Xu Jing!" Zhang Mu answered very firmly, making me look like a bad guy who broke up a couple of lovers.

"You can tell whether you like someone or not at first sight. It's a fact that she doesn't like you. There's no need for you to pursue her anymore. It will be a trouble for both you and her!" I continued to persuade her earnestly.

"But what exactly does she dislike about me? I can change it!"

"Your character is somewhat lacking! You're quite a scumbag in the eyes of women!"

"How am I a scumbag? When I was with my ex-wife, I didn't cheat on her and treated her very well. I told her immediately that I didn't love her anymore. I also gave her two-thirds of my property and took on the responsibility of raising our two children. How am I a scumbag?"

"When you were with her, you always had Xu Jing in your heart. When you were with your ex-wife, you always had another woman in your heart! You're always looking at the other woman while eating from the pot. If you were with Xu Jing, how could you guarantee that there wasn't another woman in your heart? We women value different things than you men. You think you didn't owe your ex-wife anything, but women are more emotional. She just wants you to love her, but you cruelly told her the truth: you don't love her! And during your marriage, you had another woman in your heart. All the sweetness of the past has become a joke! They have become poisonous thorns that pierce her heart! She was just your second best! When you had the chance to pursue the love of your heart, you abandoned her without hesitation!"

"But I promised to leave the house and give her the child! I'm willing to give her all the compensation I can! She was the one who didn't want it!"

"Love isn't something you can buy or sell with money! Your ex-wife has invested so much of her love in you over the years; all she wants is your love, not cold, hard cash! Your ex-wife is so disappointed in you that she's no longer willing to raise your child. Can't you see? She's completely desperate! She must feel like she's been your physical support for so many years! Your tool for carrying on your family line! You're only with her to get along, not to truly want to build a happy family!"

I kept talking to Zhang Mu in an attempt to make him realize how much he owed his ex-wife and that his feelings weren't earned by being moved. In the end, he left dejectedly. Looking at his lonely back, I didn't know if he heard what I said.

Xu Jing happened to be in my office checking some documents with me, so I cautiously asked, "Has Zhang Mu not come to see you recently?"

"Do you want him to come?" Xu Jing didn't even raise her head.

"Is it okay if he doesn't come to see you?" I breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's all your fault for matchmaking me up and causing me so much trouble! This Zhang Mu is really amazing. He even visited my parents. My parents are quite satisfied with him and kept brainwashing me!" Unexpectedly, Xu Jing's emotions were ignited.

"Zhang Mu hasn't given up yet?" I was confused.

"You're overthinking it! How could someone like him who insists on doing what he wants and thinks he's the only one who cares about others listen to anyone else? If he keeps going like this, I'm really going to sue him and ask the court for a restraining order!"

"You really don't like him?"

"Why should I like a forty-year-old man?" When Xu Jing said this, Xiao Yuan just pushed the door open.

"It's so sad for a forty-year-old man at this time!" Xiao Yuan sighed as he stood at the door.

"What are you doing here?" Xu Jing questioned Xiao Yuan.

"The entire company belongs to me. As an old man, I can go wherever I want!" Xiao Yuan walked into my office slowly and poured himself a cup of coffee.

"If you're okay, get out!" Xu Jing ordered.

"Wei Qing, look, Xu Jing's attitude towards me has become very bad since I came back from Europe!" Xiao Yuan cried to me.

"Who told you to find fault with everything when you were in Europe?" I felt helpless.

"I'm pursuing perfection!" Xiao Yuan said and took a sip of coffee proudly.

"What on earth are you doing here? Wei Qing and I have something to discuss!" Xu Jing continued to order them to leave.

"What can happen to you? You're just being pursued by a man. What's so troublesome about that? There are many women pursuing me, but I'm not troubled either. You should be more open-minded!" Xiao Yuan patted Xu Jing's shoulder, but was frightened by Xu Jing's look and withdrew his hand instantly.

"Do you think I'm as blind as you? I like everything!" Xu Jing retorted mercilessly.

"Wei Qing, look at her now. She's like a powder keg, ready to ignite at any moment!"

"What's the matter with you? As a grown man, you shouldn't listen to our women's affairs!" I also hinted to Xiao Yuan to leave quickly.

"As for me, there's nothing wrong. I just want to drink your coffee!" Xiao Yuan said with a smile as he stirred the coffee in his hand.

"Hurry up and leave!" Xu Jing directly pushed Xiao Yuan out of the door.

"He's the boss after all, you should be more restrained!"

"Boss? If he has the guts, just fire me!" Xu Jing said angrily.

"Don't be angry, how about I find Zhang Mu and explain it to him some other day?"

"Goodbye! If I slap him now, he'll have to think about it for a long time. He's so narcissistic now that he thinks everything I do is for him! I'm really helpless! It was you who brought Zhang Mu to me, you have to get rid of this annoying guy for me!"

"But I've already said what I need to say..."

Xu Jing interrupted me. "I don't care what method you use, I don't want him to be around me again! Otherwise, I'll use legal means! I'm 100% sure I can win this simple case!"

After Xu Jing scolded me for a while, I went to Zhang Mu again, hoping he would give up. But he was so stubborn that even though I poured cold water on him countless times, he still immersed himself in his fantasy world and couldn't extricate himself.
