Five years after their breakup, a prominent lawyer is desperately seeking reconciliation.

Jiang Wan had met many of Lu Jingshi's fans in Haicheng before.

However, since he always had a driver and his itinerary was relatively simple, he wasn't as reckless as he is now.

His schedule was only announced this morning, but as soon as he stepped downstairs, screams erupted from all sides of the road.

"Attorney Lu!"

"Brother, look at me."

"Welcome, Attorney Lu! Best of luck!"

"Go, brother! May you succeed completely!"

Lu Jingshi nodded repeatedly, and would occasionally ask, "How old are you?" or "Study hard."

Jiang Wan, who was following behind, couldn't help but laugh.

After finally getting into the backstage area, the shouts from outside could still be faintly heard.

Jiang Wan was shocked by how quickly these fans learned the news, but to Lu Jingshi, it looked like he was terrified.

"This is information deliberately released by the organizers to increase exposure; you'll get used to it."

He quickly tidied himself up backstage before being introduced onto the stage.

As soon as Lu Jingshi appeared on the stage, the audience erupted in cheers.

Without wasting any words, he opened the courseware and started directly.

Jiang Wan stood at the back of the conference room, found the right angle, and took some photos to write for her WeChat official account.

"Hello, are you an assistant too?"

Someone gently patted her from behind. Jiang Wan turned around and saw five young girls sitting together, smiling at her in a friendly manner.

Jiang Wan nodded: "You too."

"Yeah, come sit down too. It'll be another hour or two, standing is tiring."

Five people were crammed onto four stools, which was already cramped, but they managed to make room for Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan initially wanted to refuse, but seeing how enthusiastic they were, she had no choice but to sit in a corner.

She looked down and noticed that almost all of them were wearing high heels.

"Don't you have any seats?"

A cute girl with a bun hairstyle spoke up: "My master got his tickets through connections. What are we, fresh graduates with internship certificates, anyway? We don't deserve seats!"

"Don't you know today's event will last a long time? High heels will hurt a lot."

"Sigh, what can we do? My mentor requires that female lawyers must be capable, and high heels are a must; only then will they be able to do good business."

Jiang Wan frowned involuntarily. What kind of ridiculous request was this?

What does professional skill have to do with wearing high heels?

"Sister, you look so... relaxed? Your master must treat you very well, right?"

Jiang Wan looked down at herself. She was wearing a blue shirt, white casual pants, and a pair of flat shoes that she had specially changed into, which were indeed a bit too loose.

"Oh, I... my master never cares about these things."

Actually, it does matter. When Lu Jingshi ran into her in the hallway this morning, he hesitated and asked her if she wanted to change into a more photogenic outfit.

She rejected me.

He was the one giving the speech, and she was the one entering the country; she only needed to dress comfortably.

The girls looked at her with envy: "Then your master must be a kind old man."

At the same time, Lu Jingshi on stage was talking about the part that Jiang Zemin revised last night.

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment and slowly stood up.

"Actually, there was a problem with my description of this part yesterday. It was revised by my assistant, who is also an excellent lawyer with outstanding achievements in environmental litigation. In fact, she is among the top in China in terms of theory."

"Moreover, she studied abroad for five years and has done in-depth research on the issue of environmental litigation both domestically and internationally."

"Jiang Wan Lawyer".

His gaze swept across the entire conference hall, landing at the very back.

Jiang Wan paused for a moment, then stood up blankly.

Thousands of eyes shot over, and media cameras quickly zoomed in.

"I recommend that everyone take a look at some of her published journal articles, one of which was even selected as a theoretical guide for the trial of related cases."

The girls beside him exclaimed almost simultaneously.

"Jiang Wan? I think I have indeed seen it before. I was saying how well it was written."

"Yes, yes, I remember now, my advisor recommended that we go see it."

"He's still Attorney Lu's assistant. Attorney Lu is actually so good to his assistant, letting him get the spotlight at such an important occasion. They're both mentors, how can there be such a huge difference? I was completely dumbfounded!"

"Attorney Jiang."

The organizers rushed over.

"Could you please elaborate on this issue? Consider it an academic exchange between colleagues."

Before Jiang Wan could refuse, someone pushed her through the crowd and led her onto the stage.

Jiang Wan looked at Lu Jingshi with pleading eyes, not understanding what he meant.

Lu Jingshi walked over with his standard smile and took her wrist.

He said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "If you can manage to gain some recognition, things will be easier with Old Wang."

Jiang Wan let him lead her to sit down next to him.

She glanced at the audience, took a deep breath, and took the microphone that Lu Jingshi pushed towards her.

This is her specialty; no one is more knowledgeable about this than her.

Therefore, after the initial few minutes of nervousness, she became more and more confident, even pushing aside her computer and talking fluently, much of which was not even part of the original conversation.

The initial skepticism from the audience gradually turned into appreciation and agreement.

After the speech, many people wanted to add Jiang Wan as a friend and exchange contact information.

Jiang Wan went backstage to seek Lu Jingshi's opinion.

After all, some law firms do not allow assistants to contact clients alone or carry out independent work.

Lu Jingshi lazily took off his headphones and threw them on the table: "What kind of bullshit rule is this? Kairong doesn't have such a rule."

With his permission, Jiang Wan excitedly ran out and added the contact information of many colleagues.

They came from all over the country and had different majors, but they hit it off immediately when they talked.

It wasn't until the hotel staff came to clean up the area that Jiang Wan realized she had left Lu Jingshi waiting backstage for over an hour.

When she rushed inside, Lu Jingshi was surrounded by the organizers.

"Director Lu, you have come from afar. Please allow us to show you the hospitality of a local. Please be sure to climb our famous mountain."

Lu Jingshi's expression was indifferent, clearly indicating his dissatisfaction with the unauthorized addition of a new itinerary by the organizers.

"By the way, there's a temple on the mountain that's most effective for praying for career and marriage. I heard that Director Lu is still unmarried. Why don't you go to the temple for a visit? Maybe you'll meet your soulmate there."

As their ramblings became increasingly outrageous, Jiang Wan quickly went over to them.

"I'm so sorry, our director has other commitments coming up and may not be able to make it..."

"Want to go hiking? I've recently taken a liking to the outdoors."

Lu Jingshi's clear and gentle voice rang out behind her, startling Jiang Wan into turning around to look at him.

He's someone who rarely walks more than 100 steps a day on WeChat, yet he's fallen in love with the outdoors? What kind of persona is he trying to create?

"Okay, okay, Director Lu, you're so kind. We'll pick you up in the hotel lobby at nine o'clock sharp tomorrow."

After everyone left, Jiang Wan quickly took out her phone to search.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm looking for a gym to cram for last-minute lessons."

Lu Jingshi rolled his eyes at her: "Idiot, there's a cable car on the mountain."
