Chapter 1740: I have confidence in my own beauty
“An Lan, please watch your words.” Xu Baohan’s cold face finally cracked. “I have no interest in you. Don’t flatter yourself.”
“Who knows?” An Lan curled her lips, causing the red bar on her lips to become even more obvious.
Xu Baohan couldn’t take it anymore. “Please look at yourself in the mirror first.”
An Lan chuckled. “There’s no need. I look at myself in the mirror every day. I’m confident in my beauty.”
Xu Baohan’s lips twitched.
An Lan’s smile deepened when she saw that he was silent, “Oh right, due to your special status, you might be punished more severely. What a coincidence, we both committed the same crime. Will we spend five days in prison together? Fate, but no matter what, I’m just a small lawyer, I can’t be compared to you.”
“…”
Xu Baohan watched her lips move, turning to leave with an ugly expression on his face.
“Hey, don’t go.” An Lan quickly followed. “Is it too late to escape now?”
“An Lan, enough is enough.” Xu Baohan turned back, his cold and charming eyes sweeping over her. “If you had such a tongue in court, you wouldn’t have lost the case, and you wouldn’t have to resort to insulting the presiding judge behind his back to vent.”
An LAN blushed. “If you hadn’t been so cold, you might not have lost the case. The law is merciless, but people are kind.”
Xu Baohan turned around this time and looked straight at her. “I’m a judge. I only make conclusions from the perspective of the law, just like how you’re a lawyer. You only think about what’s best for your client.”
“You think Chen Juanqi was deliberately killed by Lin Hao, but you don’t have enough evidence. Without solid evidence, the crime is not established. You’re not qualified, so don’t blame others. I really doubt how you got to where you are today. Is it good luck?”
He left without looking back.
An Lan was embarra.s.sed and angry. She glared at his back and said snappily, “Didn’t you want to go to the toilet? Aren’t you going? Don’t get urethritis from holding it in.”
Xu Baohan’s retreating figure froze. A few seconds later, he left with his long legs.
An Lan snorted coldly at his back and muttered, “I knew you didn’t want to go to the washroom. Maybe you just wanted to sneak into the ladies’ room.”
She suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. Luckily, she had come out early, otherwise, he might have seen everything.
She had better stay away from him in the future.
She hurried downstairs. Yan Wen had been waiting for her by the car for a while. When she saw an LAN rus.h.i.+ng over, she glared at her strangely.
“Let’s go, get in the car.” An Lan used her keys to unlock her BMW.
“Erm…” Yan Wen pointed at the corner of her mouth awkwardly. “Lawyer An, your mouth…”
An Lan’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly took out a mirror to take a look. A red line on her lips slid down to the right side of her nose. It was especially eye-catching. She suddenly remembered that the person beside her had looked at her several times when she was taking the elevator downstairs, so she had been facing off against Xu Baohan for such a long time in the toilet, yet she had still confidently said in front of him that she had confidence in her beauty?
An Lan instantly had the thought of pa.s.sing out.
As a strict lawyer, it had been a long time since she had been so humiliated.
Yan Wen braced herself and said obsequiously, “Lawyer An, it’s alright. You’re so good-looking, even if you draw a Peking opera face on your face, you’d still look good.”
