Lu Xuanchen stood in front of the elevator with his head lowered and his pockets stuck in, looking like a thief. Around him, there were quite a few resident aunties who had just returned from their walk.
Because it was an old residential area, the residents" occupancy rate was very high. Every time this happened, there would be more people and they were familiar with each other. Naturally, they treated Lu Xuanchen, this n.o.ble young master, as their target for research.
"Whose boy is this? His figure is not bad and his skin is white!"
I"m not sure. Why is she wearing a mask at such a young age? "I"ve heard that people who have a face lift love to wear a mask to cover their wounds.
Lu Xuanchen helplessly rolled his eyes. "Why does wearing a face mask have to be related to plastic surgery?"
"Kid, which floor are you from? I"ve never seen you before! " A warm-hearted auntie immediately came over to question him.
"Oh, I"m looking for a friend!" Lu Xuanchen immediately tensed up. The most difficult person to deal with was the warm-hearted grandma. If he chatted with them for a while, he would be able to dig out all 18 generations of his ancestors.
When the elevator came, a bunch of people rushed in. Although Lu Xuanchen got the elevator first, he was still squeezed in a corner. It was difficult for him to even turn around.
"Wow, my milk ??" Suddenly, a fight broke out between the two old gra
ies beside him. They were fighting over a bottle of milk with its lid open and their hands grabbing at it. The whole bottle suddenly fell to the side and half of it directly fell into Lu Xuanchen"s chest.
"Sigh ??" Lu Xuanchen was completely stu
ed. He was about to retort when he heard the earth-shaking cries of the two kids mixed with the sound of the two aunties apologizing to him.
A grandma beside him quickly took out a tissue to wipe the milk off Lu Xuanchen"s clothes.
Lu Xuanchen was afraid of them, so he quickly waved his hand and refused: "Forget it, forget it!"
Even though he said it out loud, he couldn"t help but look down at his black s.h.i.+rt that was dyed beyond recognition by the white milk. Moreover, a lot of it had even fallen into his pants and was spreading downwards.
Finally, the elevator arrived. Lu Xuanchen"s handsome face was twisted under the mask.
When he stood in front of Mao Rongrong with such a bedraggled appearance, Mao Rongrong also looked at him with a face full of astonishment.
"How did you end up like this?" No matter how serious Mao Rongrong was, she couldn"t help but laugh out loud.
"Give me back my phone!" Lu Xuanchen gritted his teeth and said.
"Oh, I"m sorry, didn"t I just call your agent? I got off the phone! " Mao Rongrong immediately explained.
"What?" Lu Xuanchen was about to explode on the spot. He ran upstairs and this woman actually told him that his phone fell off. That meant that the pain he suffered just now was for nothing.
"I was too busy working that I forgot about it at the moment. Just wait for me for five more minutes. When I"ve finished with their statement, I"ll help you get it downstairs!" Mao Rongrong was still working at the moment, so of course she couldn"t leave. She had no choice but to let him wait by the side for a while.
"Lawyer Mao, you have to help my son! If the lawsuit fails, he will be captured and sent to jail! We are orphans and widows, how am I going to live without him?" He walked over and was about to kneel down towards Mao Rongrong. Luckily, Mao Rongrong extended her hand and pulled her up, "Auntie Li, don"t worry, since I"ve accepted your case, I"ll be in charge of everything. I have a rough understanding of your son"s situation, so when I go back, I"ll organize the information and prepare to go to court tomorrow."
"Then I"ll pay my respects to you. You"re such a good person. You"ve exempted us from half of the lawyers" fees and even helped my son interview. If you save my son, you"ll be the savior!" The old lady said with a sad and despairing expression on her face. She looked really pitiful.
"Don"t worry, once I accept my case, I will do my best to help you guys win the case." Mao Rongrong said with a heavy expression.
The Old Gra
y turned around and brought out a bag of fruits, "Lawyer Mao, this is a small token of my appreciation. Take it back and eat it."
"No need, no need. My friend has come to find me. I have something to do, so I"ll be leaving first. We"ll contact each other tomorrow!" After Mao Rongrong finished, she grabbed Lu Xuanchen"s hand and walked quickly towards the elevator.
"Take it, this is your boyfriend right? Young lad, take it for Lawyer Mao!" The old lady directly stuffed the fruit into Lu Xuanchen"s hand.
Lu Xuanchen didn"t react immediately. He instinctively took the bag of fruits and followed Mao Rongrong into the elevator with the bag of fruits in his hand.
"Who let you take it!" Mao Rongrong looked at the fruit in his hand and scolded him with a sigh.
"Give her to me ??" I caught it on instinct, I didn"t mean to take it, I"m returning it now! " Lu Xuanchen explained nervously like a child who had done something wrong.
"Forget it, there"s no need to take it back. They won"t accept it either!" Mao Rongrong directly took the fruit in her hand and stared at the floor with a serious expression.
Lu Xuanchen was just about to curse at her because she made him suffer for free from that bottle of milk, but when he saw her pitiful eyes, he suddenly couldn"t say anything. The two of them just quietly stood in the elevator all the way down to the first floor.
"I didn"t expect a dignified lawyer to take on such a case." Lu Xuanchen searched her information and knew that she was a well-known female lawyer. Originally, he thought that famous lawyers like her would take on big cases, the rich ones, but he never expected her to come to this kind of poor family to pick up cases.
Mao Rongrong ignored his taunts and walked straight to her car. It wasn"t some fancy car, it was just an ordinary scooter, which made Lu Xuanchen even more surprised. Someone like her ru
ing a law firm with others should be very profitable, why would she drive a car worth 100,000 yuan?
Mao Rongrong seemed to be deep in thought about her work. After opening the car door, she bent over to feel around and returned the phone to Lu Xuanchen. "Take it!"
Lu Xuanchen took the phone and looked at it. There were a few notifications on the screen.
"You didn"t see the contents of my phone, right?" Lu Xuanchen suddenly asked her.
Mao Rongrong sat in the driver"s seat, leaned against the back of the chair, and said indifferently: "I"m not that gossipy. Don"t worry, I"m not interested in the matters of your entertainment industry!"
Lu Xuanchen was shocked. Why is it that women of the same age and Mao Rongrong"s way of doing things are different from women in their twenties?
"Thank you!" Lu Xuanchen thanked her anyway. Seeing that she didn"t even look at him, he rubbed his nose and left.
