However, there are still some people who indulge in revelry and rich nightlife. Some do it for fun, while others do it to release stress and numb themselves with alcohol.

Of course, there are also some people who stay up late to work overtime and entertain clients. They are all trying to gain capital for their future.

At this moment, Han Tao did not avoid social engagements. Accompanied by Qu Xiaoxiao, he came to a very stylish bar, which was an independent courtyard. If he had known earlier, he would have known that this was Kyoto, and in one of the highest consumption areas.

According to Qu Xiaoxiao, this bar was designed by a famous French designer and uses high-quality decoration materials. It is divided into two floors and serves famous wines from all over the world.

However, this bar operates on an invitation-only membership system, and members who are not invited by the bar manager are not allowed to enter, to ensure that guests will not be harassed by outsiders while having fun.

Of course, this party was not just to invite Han Tao, but Qu Xiaoxiao and Yao Bin’s friends also invited some friends and partners from their own circle.

However, after seeing Han Tao, whether they came voluntarily or were invited by friends, they all came forward to greet him enthusiastically, and Qu Xiaoxiao also introduced Han Tao to this group of people.

"Brother Han, President Jiang and the others are here!"

During the greetings, Qu Xiaoxiao saw someone walking towards the door, and hurriedly reminded Han Tao in his ear, and pointed in the direction of the door.

In addition to hotels and restaurants, the Jiang Group is also doing well in the real estate industry. Qu Xiaoxiao's Qu Group started out as a teaching material company, so it has a lot of cooperation with the Jiang Group.

This circle is like this. It is big if you say it is big, but it is also small if you say it is small. For example, Jiang's company, which is headed by Jiang Haokun, has cooperated with Mingtang Law Firm in Shanghai before, although Mingtang did not become a strategic partner of Jiang's company.

In fact, this is normal. After all, such large companies have their own partners and their own legal departments. It’s just that the work undertaken by their legal departments is very different from that undertaken by law firms.

This is also the reason why Jingyan Group reformed its legal department and appointed Han Tao as chief legal advisor and CLO. This is because when encountering cases that go to court, the legal department and the law firm handle them in different directions.

For a large group company, major cases or businesses with litigation risks are generally handed over to law firms for handling, because the lawyers in law firms are more professional, and many specialists and even managers in the legal department do not have a lawyer's license.

Suppressing his chaotic thoughts, Han Tao followed Qu Xiaoxiao's gaze towards the door. The person coming was Jiang Haokun, and Jiang Lai followed one step behind him. In addition, there was a pretty boy following Jiang Lai.

"Boss Jiang, Lai Lai, you're here."

Qu Xiaoxiao was the first to greet everyone, and then introduced Han Tao to Jiang Haokun and Jiang Lai.

Jiang Haokun's expression was not very good, but after seeing Han Tao, he still smiled and pointed at Jiang Lai and the pretty boy beside her and said:

"Hello, Lawyer Han. I've long heard of you. This is my sister Jiang Lai. Miss Qu just introduced her. Let me introduce you to the person next to her, Chen Fang."

Han Tao had already seen that if Jiang Lai had not deliberately pulled the corner of Jiang Haokun's clothes, Jiang Haokun had no intention of introducing Chen Fang, and even if he did, he would have downplayed the introduction.

Of course, these issues had nothing to do with Han Tao, but Jiang Lai didn't care about his brother's attitude and added with a smile:

"Hello, Lawyer Han, Chen Fang is my boyfriend."

"Hello, Miss Jiang. Your boyfriend is very handsome. I think I've seen him somewhere before. Let's have a good chat later."

Han Tao responded politely, then shook hands with Jiang Haokun and continued:

"I've known Mr. Jiang for a long time. I even paid attention to him a few days ago after I took over the job. Your company has collaborated with Mingtang several times before, so we can be considered old friends."

"I've also been friends with Lawyer Han for a long time. He mentioned you at a salon organized by Old Tan. I heard you're currently helping Shengxuan Group with a multi-billion dollar merger and acquisition, and that we've also invested in the short video industry together. I hope we can have a chance to collaborate."

"Mr. Jiang, you're too polite. In fact, I'm also interested in further cooperation with the Jiang Group and Mr. Jiang. It seems that we have the same idea. Let's sit down and chat slowly!"

Han Tao's words had just fallen, and before Jiang Haokun could respond, Chen Fang beside Jiang Lai said anxiously:

"Hello, Mr. Han, it's great that you have this idea. In fact, we came here today just to talk to you..."

"Chen Fang, right?"

Qu Xiaoxiao was particularly disgusted with his impolite and overbearing behavior, but she had to give Jiang Lai a look while continuing the conversation:

"Since you're Lai Lai's boyfriend, you have to meet us. It's fate that we're all gathered here in Kyoto today. Come over for a couple of drinks, and we'll talk in detail later."

Chen Fang, who knew Jiang Lai's circle very well, knew very well that although these people were all rich second-generation rich and playboys, they had considerable power.

Therefore, Chen Fang gladly accepted Qu Xiaoxiao's invitation, said hello to Jiang Lai, and let Fu follow the friends called by Qu Xiaoxiao.

"Xiao Xiao, what do you mean? Didn't I tell you that Chen Fang wanted to discuss cooperation with Lawyer Han? Why did you let Yang Zi and the others take him away?"

Jiang Lai complained a little with a dissatisfied look on her face. Originally, she had asked Qu Xiaoxiao to set up this game for her boyfriend Chen Fang. Now that Chen Fang was taken away, she suddenly felt looked down upon.

When Jiang Haokun heard his sister say this, his face turned green with anger. However, he had no way to deal with his sister, so he could only smile helplessly at Han Tao and then scolded Jiang Lai:

"Don't mess around. Lawyer Han and I have something to discuss. If you don't want to hear it, you can go hang out with your friends for a while. I'll text you when I'm done."

After hearing the scolding, Jiang Lai's mood instantly became uncertain, but Qu Xiaoxiao noticed it and quickly pulled her to sit down. Women have more topics to talk about, and soon the two of them started chatting and laughing.

Seeing that someone had taken care of Jiang Lai, Jiang Haokun breathed a sigh of relief, then followed Han Tao to sit on the sofa next to Qu Xiaoxiao and the others, and spoke again:

"Speaking of which, I also want to congratulate Lawyer Han. Congratulations! Not only have you become the director of Mingtang Law Firm, but your company's new investment projects have also been very successful, including the short video project, which is a leader and has great development prospects."

"Thank you for your attention, Mr. Jiang. Xiao Qu has already shared your ideas with me. I think we still have a basis for cooperation. If you don't mind, we can arrange a meeting after returning to Shanghai. Invite Lao Tan as well."

"That's what I want. Let's make it a deal then. I'll make arrangements when we get back to Shanghai. I'll also call Mr. Tan and Mr. He, and we'll go taste our hotel's new specialties together."

Seeing that Han Tao did not refuse, Jiang Hao Kun felt relieved. He also realized that the purpose of his meeting was mostly achieved, so the two of them got along better and better as they talked.

........................

Chapter 575 Chen Fang is online

During the chat, Jiang Lai, Qu Xiaoxiao and others heard Jiang Haokun and Han Tao talking about the Haohan Chaoyue Group. They were also curious about this 10 billion inheritance case. Jiang Lai, in particular, was particularly interested in this, so she couldn't help but ask:

"Lawyer Han, according to Xiao Xiao, wasn't Lan Hong a sure winner in this inheritance case? Why did they settle out of court in the end?"

Hearing this question, Han Tao looked at Qu Xiaoxiao and Jiang Haokun who seemed to be thinking about something, and said with a smile:

"There are two main reasons. One is that all litigation carries risks. If there is no necessary reason, try not to go to court. Just strive to obtain the maximum rights and interests.

Secondly, this kind of thing isn't as simple as right or wrong. After all, Sun Haohan and Ms. Lan Hong have a daughter, who is also part of the Sun family. Out of kinship, I agreed to the out-of-court settlement. The specific circumstances are private, so I won't discuss them."

This answer made everyone fall into deep thought. Everyone understood the logic behind it. It was true that Han Tao was a lawyer, and there was nothing wrong with him making money, but he did not only care about money.

From this we can see that Han Tao is different from some lawyers. He has his own bottom line and is not a lawyer who only cares about money.

Moreover, he can put himself in the shoes of the parties involved and consider the situation. After all, winning the lawsuit means that Lan Hong and Sun Chaoyue will completely stand on opposite sides, or even become enemies. Then, with constant internal fighting, the Haohan Chaoyue Group will have no future.

However, what people admire and recognize the most is Han Tao's ability to handle problems. He did not give in at all on what he should fight for. In order to protect the legal rights and interests of agent Lan Hong, the 60% of shares that he should have legally inherited were not lost a single cent.

At this time, Jiang Lai glanced at his brother Jiang Haokun, and said with a hint of meaning:

"I didn't expect Lawyer Han to have such a strong sense of justice and humanity. In fact, before things turned around, I thought Lan Hong was quite bad. Sun Haohan should have done a good job of pre-marital justice. Otherwise, if he met the wrong person, wouldn't it be a good deal for outsiders?"

"People can't just rely on their subjective consciousness. They have to look at things from different perspectives. This just shows that Mr. Sun and his wife are truly in love and not so calculating about personal gain."

Jiang Hao Kun is such a smart person, how could he not understand the meaning of his sister's words? He and his fiancée Gan Jing were good friends in college, but Gan Jing had a boyfriend before, a man named Lu Yuan, who was also a good friend of his. At that time, Gan Jing was wholeheartedly in love with Lu Yuan, but Jiang Hao Kun also liked Gan Jing.

However, out of respect for his friends and their friendship, Jiang Hao Kun has always been law-abiding and has not done anything deviant. He just keeps his love for Gan Jing deep in his heart until an accident occurs.

Han Tao looked at Jiang Haokun's face, which darkened slightly, and frowned, and couldn't help shaking his head. Jiang Haokun was really good to his sister Jiang Lai and cared about her very much. But he was also a bootlicker, and his love for Gan Jing was a little humble.

Jiang Lai also noticed that her brother's expression was not right. Because there were outsiders present, and she was still counting on her brother Jiang Hao Kun to act as a matchmaker so that her boyfriend Chen Fang and Han Tao could reach a cooperation, so she did not continue the topic.

Thinking of this, she smiled and raised her glass, then clinked it with Han Tao and said with a smile:

"I agree with Lawyer Han's approach. I hate people who scheme against others. It's really unkind of them to fight over the family property even before my brother's body is cold.

Lawyer Han’s approach is truly perfect. Just for this considerate approach, I’d like to toast you a glass. We can be friends from now on!

After saying that, Jiang Lai drank it all in one gulp, acting as if he really treated Han Tao as a friend. However, he didn't notice that Jiang Hao Kun next to him had a strange expression and his face had turned dark.

Jiang Group and Haohan Chaoyue also have cooperation, otherwise they would not be talking about this today, and they would not be paying so much attention to the development of this matter. Now that Jiang Lai said this, it is easy to cause misunderstanding.

Although he knew she didn't mean it, he still had to make some estimates with so many people present, so he also raised his glass and said:

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed Director Han and a few friends. My sister is just like that. She's spoiled and always outspoken. Don't mind me, everyone. I'll toast to everyone."

After hearing what his brother said, Jiang Lai knew that he had said something wrong, so he smiled at Han Tao embarrassedly and changed the subject:

"Lawyer Han, Xiao Xiao and I are friends, and you and Xiao Xiao are friends too, so we're friends too. Let's add each other on WeChat!"

As she spoke, she took out her cell phone and sent a message to her boyfriend Chen Fang, then found the QR code interface and placed it in front of Han Tao.

After Han Tao scanned it, Jiang Lai put away her phone with satisfaction and talked about her boyfriend wanting to cooperate with him.

At this time, Chen Fang also walked over with a happy look on his face. He met a lot of friends today, which would be very helpful for his future career. Especially after receiving the message, he became even more excited at the thought that he would soon be able to rely on Han Tao, a big tree.

At Jiang Lai's signal, Chen Fang raised his glass and said with gratitude, "Hello, Mr. Han, thank you for giving me this opportunity."

Han Tao glanced at him, a polite smile on his face, and said, "Mr. Chen, don't be in a hurry to thank me. Miss Jiang just gave us a brief introduction. I also know your intentions, but I can't give you a result on whether we can cooperate.

Because I rarely take charge of business matters, Xiao Xiao knows this best. My cooperation with Lao Tan is just my investment, and I don't participate in any management. Whether it will succeed in the end depends on you talking to the person in charge there."

"I understand, I understand. I know you're busy and don't have time to deal with such trivial matters. Just give me a chance. Otherwise, it will be too difficult for me to meet with Mr. He and Mr. Tan."

"It's not that serious. Since Mr. Jiang brought you here and you're Miss Jiang's boyfriend, Xiao Xiao also tried her best to persuade you, so we have to give you some face."

"Yes, yes, I really want to thank Big Brother, thank Miss Qu, and thank President Han for thinking highly of me, Chen Fang. I did it!"

Chen Fang happily clinked glasses with Han Tao, then drank it all in one gulp. He felt that since Han Tao gave Jiang Hao Kun this face, the matter must be almost certain.

Please keep up the good work, be brave to contact film and television characters, and complete the system tasks conscientiously!

Hearing the system prompt, Han Tao smiled slightly. Chen Fang actually felt grateful to him, which was different from a good impression.

So Han Tao didn't need to think about it to understand his idea. He must have thought that he could take off with the help of himself and the Jiang family.

But he had no idea that his fate had changed from the moment Han Tao saw him. As for where he would end up, it all depended on his luck.

In fact, his ending in the original plot was not pitiful. He was a love scammer who had defrauded four women of their money. He dated Jiang Lai just to defraud the Jiang family of their money, not because he really loved her.

………………

Chapter 576

PS: (I'm sorry, brothers. Due to some reasons, I reviewed it several times, so I revised it again and again.)

Jiang Lai and Chen Fang were very happy, thinking they had achieved their goal. Han Tao also received a reward of over 10 million. Only Jiang Haokun looked unhappy. After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly said:

"Director Han, I heard that Longi is now your property. I have two plots of land in Shenzhen, one of which I'm preparing to develop. However, Jiang's main business has not been real estate in the past two years, so I'm looking for a partner to develop the system. Are you interested in working together?"

Hearing this, Han Tao looked at Jiang Haokun and guessed his purpose pretty well, so he nodded and said:

"No problem. What are your rules? If possible, I'll have Yang Ke go over there when President Jiang returns to the Magic City."

"There's no specific rules. I mean for cooperative development, the specific matters will be handed over to Chen Fang. Mr. Yang is a well-known elite in the industry, so it's just right to let Mr. Yang guide him. Once he can handle things on his own, he can practice developing the second piece of land."

"It seems that President Jiang is very optimistic about Mr. Chen and really loves Miss Jiang as his sister. Since you asked me to do this, I must give you this face. However, at this critical moment of Longji's restructuring and reconstruction, this first step cannot hurt our feet."

Han Tao's words had hidden meaning. He glanced at Jiang Haokun before picking up the wine glass. Han Tao was well aware of his plan, but he could help, but on the premise that his hands would not be dirty.

"That's natural. I can guarantee that. Besides, I don't intend to make money from this project at all. I just want to let these young people learn from it."

Jiang Hao Kun understood what Han Tao meant and raised his glass to clink it with his. He just wanted to use this opportunity to let Chen Fang get a taste of the sweetness and let his guard down so that he could make plans with him in the future.

The reason why he went to so much trouble was that he had already found out that Chen Fang was an emotional cheater and was still having affairs with several women.

He and his sister also met by chance, but Jiang Lai is a romantic person and it is better to be together than to part.

After Jiang Haokun found out, he also asked Chen Fang out for a talk. However, during the conversation, Chen Fang was very arrogant. Even though Jiang Haokun exposed his intentions and used his dark history to threaten him, Chen Fang used Jiang Lai as a bargaining chip to force Jiang Haokun to agree to his conditions.

It was this meeting that gave Jiang Hao Kun an idea. He pretended to offer Chen Fang a chance to do real estate business, but in fact he wanted to let Chen Fang take the bait first. However, he needed a good reason to let him taste the sweetness, otherwise he would not be fooled because he was too smart.

After his plan is successful, given his greedy character, he will definitely invest his own money in the end. At this time, he will quietly withdraw his investment, and the creditors will have no choice but to find Chen Fang, and then he will be able to force Chen Fang to leave.

In fact, this is the only solution. Jiang Hao Kun also tried to persuade his sister, but Jiang Lai was too willful and didn't listen at all. He didn't dare to say it clearly because he was worried that she would go to extremes after knowing it and would be hurt too deeply. Therefore, he could only proceed step by step.

But Jiang Hao Kun didn't know that if no one intervened, things would turn out unexpectedly. If Han Tao hadn't appeared, Chen Fang would not only end up in debt, but also develop bad habits. In the end, he would be overwhelmed and desperate and commit suicide by jumping off a building in Shenzhen.

Although in the eyes of most people, all of this was Chen Fang's own fault and he ruined his own life, but from Han Tao's point of view, the crime did not deserve the death penalty and his best destination was prison.

In the following time, no one talked about work. Qu Xiaoxiao's friends also became familiar with Han Tao, and Han Tao responded to their ideas one after another, which was considered to be giving them enough face.

At the same time, Lina also called on time to remind Han Tao of his work schedule and itinerary for tomorrow, and asked him to go back and rest early.

Han Tao really didn't plan to stay any longer. Seeing that the matter was almost discussed, he said goodbye and left.

Seeing this, Qu Xiaoxiao said hello to her friends and followed Han Tao out of the bar. However, as soon as they walked out of the door, they saw the customized Rolls-Royce sent by the hotel, so Han Tao admired Lina's attentiveness, said goodbye to everyone, and got in the car and left.

After the car was driving on the main road, Qu Xiaoxiao said that she had something to discuss and told the driver not to rush, then raised the partition in the middle of the cockpit.

Seeing Qu Xiaoxiao, who was wearing a short skirt and had a petite figure, doing this, Han Tao smiled helplessly. It seemed that he had been tricked by this little goblin.

"Haha, you can't run away this time!"

Qu Xiaoxiao smiled triumphantly, looking at the man in front of her with a triumphant expression, and said:

"I've bribed the driver, and he'll be at the hotel in an hour. How about something exciting?"

After saying that, without waiting for Han Tao's response, she moved over. She had no other choice. If it wasn't for chance, she wouldn't have been able to pull this off under Lina's nose.

Looking at the little elf sitting on his lap, Han Tao smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect you to have this skill. You've really grown up and now you know how to use tricks."
