He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

Song Zhi was somewhat surprised, as if she had heard something unbelievable: "Ah, are you going to help me carry it upstairs?"

"if not?"

Song Zhi smiled somewhat awkwardly and quickly led them toward the elevator.

She rented a room on the nineteenth floor. Although the environment downstairs was a bit bad, the apartment was filled with a warm atmosphere. The simple one-bedroom apartment was like a cozy little nest for her, just enough to accommodate her dreams and hopes.

However, for two burly men over 1.8 meters tall, the room was indeed a bit small. When the two of them stood in the living room, even Song Zhi felt that it was quite crowded, and the living room felt a bit suffocating.

"Zhi, your place is too small,"

"I live alone in a fairly large apartment."

"Oh dear, it will be inconvenient for me to visit in the future."

Song Zhi's lips twitched.

He thought to himself: Who told you to come?

Thinking of this, she turned to look at the law.

The lawyer remained silent after entering, wandering around and looking at things.

When Song Zhi saw him walking towards the restroom, she leaned close to Zhou Yan and whispered, "Do you know why Falu hit Meng Huan at school just now? Did he tell you?"

Zhou Yan asked with some surprise, "Didn't Ninth Brother tell you?"

"Yes, I told him. He said Meng Huan seduced him."

Clearly, Song Zhi's face was full of suspicion, and she didn't quite believe this explanation.

Zhou Yan joked, "What? You don't believe my Ninth Brother?"

Song Zhi rolled her eyes at him. "If I believed you, would I still be asking you? What exactly happened?"

Zhou Yan glanced at the man who was checking the water heater and whispered like a thief, "I don't know what that woman said. As for why she was hit, it was probably a stress reaction."

Song Zhi's lips twitched, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world: "Stress response?"

Zhou Yan nodded hurriedly: "Yes."

What triggered him?

"If you're curious, ask Fu Laojiu yourself. I dare not tell you, I'm afraid he'll beat me up."

Song Zhi muttered under her breath, her voice barely audible: "If you don't dare to say it, how can I dare to ask?"

"Asked me what?"

The law strolled out of the restroom with an air of nonchalance.

Song Zhi smiled somewhat guiltily: "No, it's nothing. Thank you all today, I'll treat you to dinner another day."

The meaning couldn't be clearer.

The lawyer smiled slightly and asked, "When is 'another day'?"

Song Zhiwan was caught off guard by the legal question and felt somewhat embarrassed.

She asked hesitantly, "So, when are you available?"

The law casually replied, "Wait for my notification."

After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Yan and asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

Zhou Yan immediately responded like a chick pecking at rice: "Let's go, let's go."

As he spoke, he looked at Song Zhi and winked at her, "Little sister, we're leaving now. You can pack your things yourself."

Song Zhi nodded slightly, watched the two leave, and then began to pack her things.

It wasn't until evening that Song Zhi finished tidying up.

Just as I was about to go downstairs to find something to eat, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Song Zhi was somewhat puzzled.

Why would anyone come here at this time?

Did we go to the wrong place?

Just as she was hesitating whether to make a sound, the delivery guy's voice came from the doorway.

"takeout."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi tiptoed to the door.

She only spoke after seeing the delivery guy outside the door through the peephole.

"I didn't order takeout."

"Are you named Song Zhi?"

Song Zhi nodded.

The delivery guy said confidently, "That's yours."

Song Zhi was still somewhat wary, so she asked the deliveryman to leave the bag at the door.

After the person left, she opened the door and carried the takeout bag from the ground into the house.

Song Zhi carefully examined the address; it was indeed hers, and the name was hers too.

She gently opened the bag, revealing fragrant tomato beef brisket.

Suddenly, the phone on the table vibrated. Song Zhi walked over with suspicion and took the phone in her hand.

It was a call from the law.

She paused slightly, then pressed the call button. "Hello."

The words had barely left his lips when a deep, magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone: "Did you receive it?"

Song Zhi was completely bewildered, and asked blankly, "What?"

"I knew you'd be so busy you'd forget to eat and sleep, so I ordered takeout for you."

Song Zhi then realized as if she had just woken up from a dream: "So it was you who ordered it."

"Yes, are you surprised?"

How did you know the address?

"I know I'm helping you move."

Song Zhi was surprised that he specifically asked for her detailed address. She gripped her phone tighter, and her heart started pounding uncontrollably.

She tried to calm her racing heart and said casually, "Thank you."

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone before the lawyer slowly spoke: "Song Xiaozhi, are you going to stay so distant with your brother?"

Song Zhi tightened her grip on her phone, and an awkward atmosphere washed over her.

She quickly changed the subject: "Are you home yet?"

The law chuckled softly, mercilessly exposing the truth: "How much time has passed, and you're only now asking me if I've arrived home?"

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi became even more embarrassed.

The law says: "Hurry up and eat."

Song Zhi replied softly, "Yes, have you eaten?"

The lawyer sighed helplessly, "Sigh, there's no one at home to cook."

Song Zhi was somewhat surprised and casually asked, "Oh, where's your sister-in-law? Isn't she home?"

The lawyer frowned: "Sister-in-law? What sister-in-law?"

Song Zhi stammered, "It's...it's your wife."

law:"……"

When did he get a wife? How come he didn't know?

"Song Xiaozhi, where did I get a wife?"

Song Zhi was slightly taken aback, and let out a soft breath: "How would I know where you got a wife?"

The law countered, "Then how could you possibly think I have a wife? That's something I myself don't even know."

Song Zhi was stunned.

What exactly did he mean by that?

Legally not married?

But doesn't he already have children?

Could it be that I misunderstood?

Thinking of this, Song Zhi couldn't help but feel nervous. She whispered, "I heard it from Zhou Yan."

The lawyer was stunned for a moment, then cursed under his breath: "Is he crazy? When did I get married? I'm not married."

At this point, he added, "Never had children."

Song Zhi: “…”

The lawyer waited for a while but didn't hear Song Zhi's voice. Suddenly, he understood something.

No wonder she acted the way she did when she was with him before.

He was puzzled as to why the little tail that had followed him around five years ago had suddenly become distant and polite.

That bastard Zhou Yan almost got me killed.

"So, Song Xiaozhi, you've always thought I was married?"

Song Zhi responded softly.

The law sighed heavily: "I am not married."

Song Zhi pursed her lips and remained silent.

For a moment, silence fell between the two.

Song Zhi waited a while, but the law didn't speak. She cautiously said, "Well, I'll eat first, then..."

"Wait a minute," the law suddenly interrupted her.

Song Zhi asked in confusion, "W-what's wrong?"

The lawyer's voice was somewhat somber: "So, the reason you've been so distant from me lately is because you found out about my marriage from Zhou Yan?"
