Chapter 1357 Lawyer Team
Li Yan's lips curled up into a meaningful arc, and sarcastic words slowly flowed out from her lips, like a chilly breeze in autumn, making people shiver involuntarily.
"Yo yo, do you know?" Li Yan's voice suddenly rang out in the office, successfully attracting everyone's attention.
"what?"
She lowered her voice mysteriously and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. The new intern in our department, oh, the girl who hasn't officially become a full-time employee yet, was wearing a limited edition bracelet on her wrist."
Upon hearing this, the originally quiet office suddenly exploded, and everyone started whispering to each other.
Nan Weiwei sat in her seat, wearing an eye mask, thinking to herself: Is Li Yan itching for trouble? Why did she suddenly mention me, her intern?
"Tsk tsk, do you know how much that bracelet is worth?"
"How many?"
“That’s a full seven figures!” Li Yan gestured.
Li Yan said this exaggeratedly, and deliberately emphasized the three words "seven digits", as if she was afraid that others could not hear it.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is really unexpected! She always looks so well-behaved and serious on weekdays, who would have thought that behind this, she actually hides such a dark secret? Could it be that she is being taken care of by someone... by an old man? Or is there something unspeakable? Hahahaha, this is really interesting!"
Li Yan's words were like a bomb, causing an uproar in the office.
Her voice was neither too high nor too low, just the right amount for everyone in the office to hear clearly, and a different look appeared on everyone's face.
Some were surprised, some were curious, but more were eager to gossip.
"Really? Li Yan, don't talk nonsense!" A colleague spoke half-doubtfully, his eyes moving back and forth between Li Yan and the sleeping Nan Weisheng, as if trying to catch a hint of flaw in the other's expression.
"Nonsense? Humph, when have I, Li Yan, ever told a lie?" Li Yan snorted disdainfully, her eyes full of confidence and complacency.
"Think about it, you've worked so hard for so many years, can you afford it?" Li Yan continued sarcastically.
"What Li Yan said makes sense. To be honest, I really can't understand it! Since she is being supported by an old man, it is reasonable for her to stay at home and enjoy the wealth and luxury like a canary in a golden cage, living a carefree life."
"But why does she insist on working so hard? Is she tired of this luxurious life? Or does she have other unknown reasons and purposes? The money given by the old man is not enough?"
"I really don't understand. If she can be supported, why doesn't she satisfy her? Otherwise, why would she come to us and run errands with ordinary people like us? She can choose a more relaxed and comfortable lifestyle!
As she spoke, Li Yan deliberately stroked the ends of her hair with her hand. That gesture seemed to declare her disdain and arrogance to everyone.
The atmosphere in the entire office suddenly became subtle, and people's eyes were filled with speculation and suspicion.
Nan clenched her fists slightly, as if an invisible big hand was tightly strangling her throat, and even breathing became difficult. She... hadn't fought for a long time.
If she had not promised Nan Yifeng not to hit people or cause trouble, she... would have made Li Yan look miserable by now.
The corners of Li Yan's mouth curled up into an even more obvious sneer, which was full of contempt and provocation, as if a cat was showing off its power in front of a mouse it had caught.
"I'm an old hand, you know? On the first day she came here, I saw through her. She's not a serious person. Her every word and action, every move, can't escape my eyes. I know her character and the way she behaves in the world like a mirror in my heart."
"That's why I feel so at ease when I order her around, without any guilt. I think it's all natural, she should listen to me and do what I ask. Moreover, I feel very justified, as if it's natural for me to do so."
She deliberately emphasized the words "feeling at ease" and "righteously" as if she was announcing to everyone that her bullying of the interns was justified and natural.
Nan Weiwei,,, I will endure,,, I will endure,,,,
"Look at her delicate and artificial appearance! It's disgusting. In front of a man like this, she might really be like a rare treasure, treated as a darling, and needing to be cared for in every way, just like a delicate flower that will wither if not carefully cherished by a man."
"She may be regarded as extremely valuable in other places, but here, in our company, her status is completely different. Once she enters this field, especially in our department, she is no longer the focus of attention, but just a small role running errands, a little maid who is responsible for serving others.
Li Yan's voice became higher and higher, more and more passionate, as if she wanted to release all the pride and joy in her heart.
Her words poured out of her mouth like a string of cannonballs, filled with undisguised sarcasm and contempt.
There was an almost crazy light in his eyes, a desire for power, bullying of the weak, and pride in his ability to control the fate of others.
She pointed at the intern, as if she was pointing at an insignificant object, a toy that could be fiddled with at will. How could an intern live such a comfortable life?
Nan Weiwei's face had turned ugly, but her colleagues around her were still chattering.
Nan Weiwei pulled off the blindfold and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. There was a hint of helplessness and detachment in his smile.
She deliberately coughed twice. Although the cough was light, it was like a breeze blowing across the lake, causing tiny but clear ripples, as if reminding everyone present that some things are not unsaid, but they are just unwilling to care about them.
The conversation between Li Yan and others came to an abrupt end with her cough, as if an invisible hand suddenly grabbed her throat.
The sound was like a guitar string that was suddenly plucked. The originally cheerful melody was abruptly cut off in an instant, leaving only a string of unfinished echoes that lingered in the air for a long time.
However, this moment of silence did not last long.
Li Yan seemed to recover from her coughing quickly. She quickly adjusted her tone, lowering her originally high-pitched voice by an octave, but the sarcasm and harshness contained in it did not diminish in the slightest.
"Tsk... I heard it, so I heard it. I'm not afraid."
There was a hint of disdain in her voice. "Some people dare to do shameful things, and are they afraid of being criticized? These people are so thick-skinned that they have no shame. People like her with bad work styles are simply the black sheep of the company! The existence of these people will not only bring bad atmosphere to the company, but also affect the mood of us decent people. I think it's better for such people to leave as soon as possible! So that they won't continue to pollute our air here!"
Her words were like sharp blades, cutting invisible cracks in the air, making everyone present feel the sharpness and coldness.
However, Nan Weiwei seemed to be completely out of the matter, her eyes were still as calm as water, without the slightest ripple.
She raised her head slightly, her eyes passed over Li Yan, and looked further away, as if she was looking for something.
There was an indescribable firmness and calmness in his eyes, as if he was saying, "You can talk as much as you want. I have my own way to go. Your words are just dust in the wind and will eventually be blown away by the wind."
"Okay, Li Yan, stop talking. We don't have any evidence. Don't talk nonsense..."
A colleague finally couldn't help it and interrupted Li Yan.
There was a hint of helplessness and persuasion in his voice, as if he was trying to calm this pointless dispute.
However, Li Yan was like a lit firecracker and couldn't stop at all.
"What's wrong? Look at you all, you are all so scared as if you saw a ghost! I'm not like you, I'm not afraid! If you don't do anything wrong during the day, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door at night."
"I, Li Yan, want to say these words to her face, so what? Are we afraid of her? If we point fingers at her behind her back, she probably won't even know that we are talking about her!"
"People like her simply have no self-awareness at all, so I have to let her know clearly that we are not soft persimmons that can be squeezed by anyone! Look at her guilty look. She clearly heard what we said, but she didn't dare to say a word. She just pretended to be calm and pretended to be cool! Humph! It's ridiculous! In the eyes of the old man, she is a treasure, but in my eyes, she is a pile of shit."
Her words came out like a rapid fire, one after another, leaving no chance for others to interrupt.
His eyes were full of provocation and complacency, as if he was enjoying the pleasure of controlling other people's emotions.
Nan Weiwei still maintained her indifference and detachment. There was no anger or dissatisfaction in her eyes, as if Li Yan's words were nothing more than a breeze blowing past her ears, without causing even a ripple.
She smiled gently, with a hint of tolerance and understanding in her smile, as if to say, "Just keep talking, I'm listening. I know you're just looking for a sense of existence, a feeling of being valued. I understand you, but I won't argue with you."
Li Yan looked at Nan Weiwei's calm and unmoved expression, and the anger in her heart burned like a piece of dry wood that had been ignited.
Her face turned livid, and her eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness, like an enraged beast preparing to launch a final attack.
"Nan Weiwei, why are you pretending to be so noble!" Li Yan gritted her teeth and squeezed out these words. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, full of resentment and jealousy.
However, Nan Weiwei just smiled gently, and that smile was like a flower blooming in spring, warm and bright. Her eyes were full of calmness and confidence, as if to say: "You can be angry, but to me, this is just a trivial matter."
"Are you done?" Nan Weiwei's voice was gentle but firm, as if she was asking an insignificant question. However, when she continued, "I'm done, it's my turn," her tone revealed an unquestionable majesty.
She slowly took out a small and exquisite mobile phone from her pocket, and the phone looked particularly delicate in her hand.
She gently pressed a button on her mobile phone, and in an instant, a clear recording sound flowed in the air like a stream of clear spring.
This voice was exactly the conversation between Li Yan and her colleagues when they were discussing Nan Weiwei.
Every word and every sentence was recorded faithfully without any omission.
Nan Weiwei still had that faint smile on her face, as if all this was within her expectations.
Her voice was calm but firm: "I recorded everything you just said."
She paused, then continued, "Defamation means you will go to jail. Are you ready?"
This sentence hit Li Yan and her colleagues' hearts like a heavy hammer, making their faces turn pale instantly.
The originally noisy sound in the entire office suddenly stopped as if an invisible hand suddenly strangled the throat.
Only the sound of the recording remained echoing in the air, over and over again, like a funeral dirge.
Li Yan and her colleagues looked at each other, their eyes filled with astonishment and fear.
They seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water, suddenly waking up from their anger and arrogance, and realizing the serious consequences of their actions.
Nan Weiwei looked at their reactions, shook her head gently, and said, "People, sometimes, really bring about their own death."
"Oh, by the way," Nan Weiwei still had that indifferent smile on her face, but her eyes were sharp and could not be ignored. "I forgot to tell you that my...financial sponsor not only has strong financial strength, but also has a professional team of lawyers at an international level. It is more than enough to deal with you petty troublemakers."
Her words were like an invisible sword, instantly cutting through the silence in the office.
Li Yan and her colleagues' faces became even uglier. They felt as if a basin of ice water was poured over their heads, chilling them from head to toe.
Nan Weiwei's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible sarcasm, "You thought your cleverness could destroy me? But you didn't expect that you were just digging your own grave."
