"Hangzhou?" Emily looked at him strangely, "Why is Lawyer Lin going to Hangzhou?"

He Jing then asked, "Has he ever lived or worked there?"

"No, he's from Shanghai, why did he go to Hangzhou?" Emily stood there and snapped her fingers, "He worked as a lawyer for us before studying abroad. Hewei, he must stay in Shanghai or Beijing if he does business like this, and he won’t be able to get a job in Hangzhou.”

He Jing said "oh", "I think he is very familiar with Hangzhou."

"Hangzhou is the back garden of Shanghai. Many people go there several times a year. It's not surprising that they are familiar with it."

He Jing also felt that he was in a daze. Han Zhao's ex-boyfriend in Hangzhou had just broken up last year, so how could he think of Lin Qiao.

Hey, it seems that the two of them have been separated for many years, and they are also wonderful.

"Joe!"

"Philip!"

Outside the arrival corridor of Pudong Airport, Lin Qiao waited for a long time, and welcomed his best friend in the United States.

Philip Gray, Lin Qiao's roommate, alumni and colleague in the United States, is currently working as a junior partner in a well-known Chicago law firm.

The last time the two met was at Lin Qiao's wedding.

"I've said so many times, are you finally free to come to China?" Lin Qiao smiled and punched him, "This time I'll take you for a walk."

"I've said it many times, but this time I finally got the credit of the project," Philip also smiled, "My sister knew that I was going to come to you and made a fuss, and I'll post more photos on Facebook later to piss her off. "

Lin Qiao thought of Philip's sister jumping with both feet in anger, and couldn't help but smile: "It's a pity that it's not summer vacation yet, otherwise she would have come together."

Lin Qiao ordered He Jing to do the new PPT project, and it was Philip's firm that acted as the brokerage lawyer in the United States.Relying on his good relationship with the brokerage firm, Philip recommended Lin Qiao to be their lawyer in China, and also made a trip to Tolerance by the way.

While joking, the two went to the garage to get the car.The road conditions were good after leaving the airport on Sunday, and the car arrived in Puxi not long after. Philip was thrown into a five-star hotel next to his home by Lin Qiao.

"You take a break, I'll bring Ray to you for dinner tonight."

Philip looked at him pitifully: "Is Ray coming too? I saw him nervous."

In the United States, Xie Rui was Philip's client and was known for being demanding and difficult.Although there was no such relationship now, Philip could not help being terrified at the sight of him.Lin Qiao invited him to live at home before, but he also refused because he didn't want to disturb you and Ray.

"Turn him away after dinner," Lin Qiao smiled helplessly seeing Philip's usual performance, "It's very annoying not to let him come, so let's change places and continue chatting after eating."

There is nothing important for Philip to come to Shanghai this time. Tomorrow, he will go to the project kick-off meeting they are doing together for a while, visit the company's factory building, and chat with the boss.

The rest of the time is mainly spent reminiscing with Lin Qiao.

In the evening, Lin Qiaofu arrived as scheduled and took him to eat in a restaurant full of old Shanghai style. In the order room, he avoided dishes such as shrimp head, fish head and chicken feet, which would make the faces of foreigners turn green.After the meal, Mr. Xie Rui resigned and sent them to Dr.Wine to continue the next game.

Before leaving, Xie Rui kissed Lin Qiao's side face, and said to Philip, "Joe is quitting smoking, please help him not to smoke."

Philip laughed and said don't worry.

"Can your dog-leg problem get better?" After Xie Rui left, Lin Qiao complained while drinking, "He's not your client for a long time, okay?"

"It has become a habit for me to be bullied by him for many years," Philip said with a bitter face, and then took out a cigarette to tease Lin Qiao, "You really don't smoke?"

Lin Qiao pushed away his cigarette: "Life is incomplete without trying to quit smoking."

Philip snorted: "About me? Don't you want to listen to Ray? He treats different people in different ways, and he always achieves his goal in the end."

Lin Qiao smiled bitterly: "Yes, he is a control freak."

"The control freak who abandoned the whole kingdom for you," Philip added, "his IT circle in Chicago has become a legend. Everyone knows that Ray Tse went to China for love and sold his company cheaply. Anyone who knows something inside will tell me Inquire about you."

Lin Qiao raised his hand and surrendered: "In ancient China, I would probably be burned to death."

Philip, who was jet-lagged, slept through the afternoon and was in good spirits at night.Lin Qiao and him hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot of conversations. The two chatted until very late before returning home.

Back home, Xie Rui had already fallen asleep.After Lin Qiao went to bed, Xie Rui hugged him and asked about tomorrow's arrangements in a daze.

"In the afternoon, I will pick Philip up for a meeting in the suburbs. After the meeting, he will stay in a nearby hotel for one night to handle things. It just so happens that my mother told us to have dinner tomorrow night. You can go directly to my mother's place after get off work."

Xie Rui said yes, then hugged him tightly, and walked sideways behind him.

Lin Qiao felt something hard and hot behind her, and couldn't help laughing: "You still have strength so late?"

"Fucking you will never be tiring." After saying this, Model Worker pulled off his underwear and pushed in from behind him.

Having sex before bed is the best sleep aid.

Lin Qiao slept deeply at night, and when he woke up the next day, Xie Rui had already gone to work.

A white rose and a small card were left beside the pillow.

"Breakfast in the kitchen, I love you."

What a morning that couldn't have been more pleasant, Lin Qiao thought while biting on the French baguette.

Such a good mood lasted until the moment when I went to the garage to drive in the afternoon. After trying a few times but failing to start the car, Lin Qiao couldn't help cursing shoot.

Probably too busy recently and forgot to do maintenance.

Sighing, he came out of the garage and took a taxi on the street to pick up Philip.

The company they were going to was located in the suburbs of Shanghai. Fortunately, they had enough time. Lin Qiao and Philip arrived at their destination half an hour earlier.

He explained his purpose to the doorman, and after a while, the boss's secretary came out and took them to the meeting room.

There was no one in the huge meeting room, so the secretary turned on the light and asked someone to make tea.

"Two sit down first, I'll call President Shan."

"Don't worry, we're here early."

Miss Secretary smiled: "Mr. Shan said earlier that he would have a private chat with the two after the meeting, and now he is free."

Hearing what she said, Lin Qiao sat down and waited in peace.

After a while, the chairman surnamed Shan was brought to the meeting room by the secretary.He looked to be in his 40s, smart and capable, and in good shape.

The boss's English was not good, so Lin Qiao acted as a translator and introduced Philip to him.

After exchanging pleasantries, they all sat down.Mr. Shan raised his hand and looked at his watch, then opened his mouth after deliberation.

"Two lawyers, I have something to tell you before the meeting."

Lin Qiao turned his mind a few times and guessed several possibilities.

"President Shan, but it's okay to say."

"Ahem," Mr. Shan cleared his throat, "Going public in the United States is a strategy that our company has set for a long time, and all shareholders have been working hard in this direction, and it's almost time to close the door..."

Having said this, Mr. Shan stopped, as if he was very embarrassed.

Lin Qiao didn't urge him either, and quietly waited for his next words.

"The two lawyers were sent by an American securities company. We all have the same goal, and I will not hide anything from you..." Mr. Shan cleared his throat again, "The company was established after I got married. Divorce your wife."

Lin Qiao frowned upon hearing this, do you still want to hide this from us? !

Not in a hurry to answer Mr. Shan, Lin Qiao translated his words to Philip, who was also taken aback.

A clear shareholding structure is the most basic requirement for a listed company. If the divorce is not clear with the wife, the SEC will definitely ask questions, and the listing will almost certainly be delayed.

The well-known video website was due to the divorce of the founder and his wife, and the IPO application was delayed for a long time in the US Securities Regulatory Commission. He missed the golden opportunity of financing and was overtaken by competitors.

"Joe, is it troublesome to get a divorce in China? How long will it take?" Philip asked Lin Qiao in a low voice.

"Consensus can be reached very quickly, but if the woman wants to delay, it is not impossible for three to five years."

Philip frowned too.

Lin Qiao turned to Mr. Shan: "Is it convenient for Mr. Shan to disclose the current progress? Have you hired a lawyer to handle the divorce and property division? If you need a recommendation, we also have professional civil lawyers."

The threshold for divorce cases is too low, and there are good and bad lawyers. It is best to find someone you are familiar with and assign it to him so as not to cause trouble.

"My wife still doesn't know that the company is going public, and I don't know that I'm outside, ahem, there is someone," Mr. Shan coughed again, "I have already hired a lawyer, and he also participated in the negotiations with my wife, and the effect is not bad." good."

"That's the best," Lin Qiao considered the words, "We may need to contact that lawyer to discuss the specific situation."

"I've already asked him out," Mr. Shan heaved a sigh of relief after explaining his divorce. "He's supposed to be here later. If you have anything to say, you can discuss it face to face."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of the meeting room.

The female secretary pushed open the door and entered.

"President Shan, Lawyer Han is here."
