After Luo Yin's voice was played, the bedroom suddenly fell silent.

Han Zhao continued to pack his luggage calmly, while He Jing leaned on the bed and fiddled with his mobile phone without talking to him.

It wasn't until all the things were tidied up and the laundry was thrown into the washing machine that Han Zhao walked to the bedside and squeezed He Jing's cheeks.

"what's wrong?"

He had just washed his hands after tidying up, and his fingers were damp and cool when they touched his face.

He Jing took a look at him, and suddenly grabbed his left hand - sure enough, the silver tail ring on the little finger was impressively visible.

This ring has been worn by He Jing since he met Han Zhao. Men don't care about accessories. He never thought that the tail ring also has the meaning of declaring singleness.

"What does this ring... mean?"

"What's the point? Wear it casually."

He Jing looked at it carefully under the light, and the tail ring was engraved with the pattern of a nut, which looked very well polished.

"From someone else?"

"I bought it myself."

He Jing didn't want to care about whether Han Zhao wore the ring or not, but the tail ring, which was so attractive, really made people feel uncomfortable.

"Can I not wear it?"

"Why?" Han Zhao asked innocently.

"Others will think you're single!"

Han Zhao dismissed his reason: "There are gays who wear earrings, so all the men who wear earrings are gay?"

"At least women will misunderstand, right? This time it's Ye Tong, and next time there will be Wang Tong, Li Tong, and Zhang Tong..."

"Women still say that horoscopes count as tarot cards," Han Zhao interrupted him, "If Luo Yin said that our zodiac signs don't match, do you still want to break up?"

He Jing bit his lip, feeling that he was clearly talking nonsense, but he couldn't refute it.After thinking for a long time, I finally choked out a sentence: "Take off the ring and let me see it?"

Han Zhao took off the ring on his little finger and handed it to him.

The small ring is not light. Holding the ring in the palm of his hand, He Jing found that in addition to the brand name and PT logo, English letters seemed to be engraved on the inner ring.

Picking up the ring with his fingers, He Jing looked at it carefully under the light.

The letters Zhao.H are engraved on the inside of the ring.

"You are so narcissistic." After seeing clearly, He Jing returned the ring to Han Zhao, "Who would engrave his name in the ring!"

Han Zhao put the ring back on, and the ring just caught the root of the finger, as if it was custom-made.

"My narcissism is not a matter of a day or two, you get used to it as soon as possible."

"Cut~" He Jing pointed his little finger at him.

After a day of fishing at home, He Jing recovered enough energy to go to work.

His ankle is much better, but it still hurts when he walks fast.When my colleagues saw him walking with a limp, they first cared about him, and then began to tease him for being a little lame.

After lunch, the little cripple was stuffed with a piece of cake.

"Today is Lawyer Lin's birthday, and he asked us to share the cake from the company."

He Jing was startled holding the cake: "Sister Xiaomi, why didn't you tell me earlier that I didn't prepare a gift!"

"Oh, no need," Emily waved her hand again and again, "A few years ago, we bought it as a partnership and it was stopped. Besides, you are a man, who knows if the gift will be thrown out by Mr. Xie."

"I'm not a threat!" He Jing said with a bitter face, "I'm thousands of miles away from Lawyer Lin..."

"Don't belittle yourself, the JoeLin ten years ago was just like you..." Jennifer interjected from the side.

He Jing looked like you were joking with me.

"By the way, I don't know what gift Mr. Xie gave today?" Another colleague next to him was holding a cake and joined in the chat.

"Didn't you see it? Someone sent it to the office early in the morning!" Emily pointed to the door of Lin Qiao's office.

"That's it?" The colleague was a little disapproving, "I thought it would be very expensive."

"The gift is the most important thing," said Emily, who is obviously a fan of Xie Rui, "and it was bought by Mr. Xie from the auction, signed by the author, and this is the only one. The price is more than enough to buy a good car. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense Wow!"

The colleague pouted, saying that it would be more practical to buy a car.

While everyone was talking, Lin Qiao came back from outside after lunch.

"Happy birthday, Lawyer Lin!"

Everyone congratulated and brought him a cake.

"Thank you," Lin Qiao took the plate and asked He Jing casually, "Is your foot better?"

"It's almost there."

As soon as He Jing finished speaking, he was exposed by the person next to him and said, "The little cripple is still not walking well, and the boyfriend will take care of it."

"Ah, no," He Jing hastily argued, "He went to Pudong in the morning to do business, so he dropped me off on the way, and he might not come to pick me up at night."

"Hey, are you afraid of being visited? It's not shameful," the colleague who had met Han Zhao booed, "His handsome boyfriend has a good demeanor!"

Everyone clamored for a group visit with anticipation on their faces. Seeing Lin Qiao silently swallowing the cake, He Jing really didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, Lin Qiao didn't embarrass him for too long.

"Eat slowly, He Jing comes to the office after eating, I have a memo to tell you."

After finally dismissing all the curious sisters, He Jing ran to Lin Qiao's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

He Jing pushed the door open and walked to Lin Qiao's desk.

"Our client, an American logistics company is going to make a global acquisition. The target is part of the business of a Dutch logistics company. The transaction documents are all done in the United States. We will handle the labor legal affairs involved in China. You have to catch one in the next two days. Memo on how to deal with the transfer of employee labor relations in the transaction..."

In the middle of Lin Qiao's speech, he suddenly realized that He Jing was out of his mind.

"He Jing...are you listening?"

"Ah?" He Jing obviously didn't follow Lin Qiao's train of thought. He didn't look back from behind him until he called his name.

Lin Qiao turned around and looked up at the place he was staring at just now. The birthday present that Xie Rui gave him was not hung until this morning - a huge photograph by a famous artist, which almost occupied most of the wall.

Seeing He Jing's eyes lingering on the photo, Lin Qiao asked casually, "You also like Xing Gui?"

■

When He Jing returned to his seat, he was still stuck in the huge photo of star trails.

The stars are colorful, turning from dots to lines and turning into circles.The center of the circle is a black hole, devouring everything close to it.

The vortex of stars and stars in the sky was churning in his mind. In this weird scene, he suddenly heard Jennifer talking to him: "The labor law Memo acquired by the logistics company asked you to write it?"

He Jing collected himself, tried hard to expel the spinning star trails from his mind, and nodded to Jennifer.

"He asked me to review it for you—it's not difficult to write, but it's tedious. Please check the legal regulations carefully," Jennifer kindly reminded, "Time is a bit tight, it seems that you have to work overtime these two days."

"It's okay." He Jing took a deep breath, "I'll show you the frame after writing it."

After all, this photo of star trails took up a lot of He Jing's thoughts. When Lin Qiao went in and out of the office in the afternoon, he couldn't help but keep looking in.As a result, after sitting in front of the computer all afternoon, he didn't even set up the structure of Memo.

When he got off work, He Jing received a message from Han Zhao, saying that he would wait for him downstairs in the office building in 10 minutes.

The draft that I promised to give to Jennifer has not been seen yet. He Jing said to her apologetically, "I'm not in a good state this afternoon, and I haven't finished the outline yet. Can I send you the Memo tonight?"

"It's okay, if you give it to me now, I'll watch it again tomorrow morning," Jennifer has always been tolerant to the little lame, "Go back early."

He Jing thanked him, packed his things, took his computer and materials and prepared to go home and continue working overtime.

When I went downstairs, I saw that Han Zhao had arrived. Seeing He Jing coming down, Han Zhao opened the car door for him, and took the computer in his hand.

"Go home and work overtime?"

"Well," He Jing nodded, "Shall we eat something outside?"

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"It doesn't matter, just hurry up, beef noodles at the door?"

"Okay." Han Zhao's cooking skills can only control his stomach, so he is not picky about the food outside.

The vehicles at the tunnel entrance across the river stop and go, moving at a turtle speed.Han Zhao smoked with the car window open, and it was a bit noisy outside.

During the traffic jam, He Jing finally hesitated and said, "Today... is Lawyer Lin's birthday."

"Dididi!!!" Impatiently, there was a car waiting behind, and suddenly honked the horn, and the noise instantly swallowed He Jing's voice.

Han Zhao frowned at the noise, he put down his cigarette and closed the car window.

"What did you just say?"

The carriage suddenly fell silent, He Jing swallowed, and cleared his throat again: "Today is Lawyer Lin's birthday, and we have eaten his birthday cake."

"Oh."

After such a reply, He Jing waited for a long time, but there was no further comment.

Glancing at Han Zhao's side face, seeing nothing unusual, He Jing continued to ask, "How did you guys live before?"

"What's going on?" Han Zhao glanced at him.

"Lawyer Lin's birthday," He Jing asked bravely, "How did you celebrate it before?"

The entrance of the tunnel is extremely crowded. If you want to go home early, you must concentrate on following the car in front, and at the same time look for opportunities to change lanes and jump in line.

Han Zhao concentrated on driving the car, spotted a gap, kicked the accelerator and finally squeezed into the tunnel.

"How can I remember what happened so many years ago... We didn't make it public at the time, so we probably ate and sang with our classmates."

"Then... what birthday gift did you give? Today, Mr. Xie sent a huge star trail photo, which is hung in his office."

He Jing finally asked the question that he had been thinking about for a long time.

"Star trails? It's fun to pat once in a while, don't you feel dizzy when you look at it every day?" Han Zhao chuckled, "As for what gift you gave Lin Qiao...you really stumped me when you asked about more than ten years ago, you Do you remember such a thing?"

He Jing also smiled: "That's right, I was just curious."

Seeing Han Zhao's calmness, he suddenly felt a little silly for asking questions about the past.

However, after Han Zhao thought for a while, he still gave him an answer: "It seems that some CDs have been given away, and they are all eliminated now."

Once the doubts in my heart are gone, everything will become smoother.The two had a simple meal outside, and He Jing went home to take a shower, and then put on an overtime posture in the living room, preparing to make up for the time wasted in the afternoon.

The Chinese part of their client’s transaction only involved subsidiaries in several cities, and the counterparty was also very large. In addition to acquiring several businesses, the client also sold a business to the counterparty at the same time—this involved There are two issues of transfer-in and transfer-out of employees.

Han Zhao had to go to court early the next morning, and went to bed with him until eleven o'clock, leaving him alone in the living room to continue the fierce battle.

In the silence of the night, He Jing tapped on the keyboard, looking through the materials he brought back from the office from time to time.

As Jennifer said, the Memo he wrote is not complicated in terms of legal relationship, but laws, administrative regulations, especially local regulations in different places are complex, and there are indeed many things to pay attention to.

Nearly a little later, the relatively well-formed first draft was finally rushed out, and the progress was a little faster than I thought.

He Jing checked it again, opened the email client and was about to send the first draft to Jennifer, the moment the mouse moved to the send button, a related law suddenly popped up in his mind.

Moving the mouse away, He Jing began to try to recall the source of the idea.

Did you memorize relevant judicial interpretations during the judicial examination?

He Jing stood up, walked to the bookshelf in the living room, and took out a legal book written by Han Zhao.

The two of them attended the same examination training class last summer and used the same set of textbooks.My compilation of laws and regulations is kept in the office, and because Han Zhao works at home most of the time, many reference books are kept at home.

"Labor Contract Law...Implementation Regulations...Judicial Interpretation..."

He Jing was flipping through the thick collection of legal articles, while chanting words.

Flipping through the pages, something suddenly fell out between the pages.

He glanced at it, casually put the law book on the desk, and squatted down to pick it up.

What fell out of the book was a piece of white paper, which was lying quietly on the ground at the moment. He Jing thought it was a bookmark, but when he picked it up, it turned out to be a photo.

The scene in the photo seemed familiar. On the snow-capped mountain viewing platform at sunrise, two men wearing the same jacket were embracing and kissing.
