first arrive in this world, our encounter with loved ones is pure and honest, this is the truest form of ourselves, just like us now. And as we blend together like water and milk, we become the closes...Shu Tinglan's whole body was still damp from the rain. The children's ward didn't normally allow this many people to accompany patients, but thanks to Teacher Geng's connections and the arrangement of a private room, they were allowed to stay: Xiao Xin, Xiao Xin's parents, Shu Tinglan, and Yi Muyang.

Shu Tinglan saw that both babies were asleep, breathing steadily, only then did he truly feel at ease. He felt as if a layer of skin had been peeled off him, exhausted and drained.

Xiao Xin's parents felt a mixture of guilt and gratitude towards her. When she arrived, they urged her to go home and rest. Xiao Xin's parents were known for their tough love; although they often complained, they understood her hardships. Seeing her soaked from head to toe after rushing back, they couldn't bear to see her like this, so they only said...

“We’re fine, there are beds here with attendants. As for Lawyer Shu, why don’t you go take a hot shower and change your clothes before coming over The babies are all asleep, it’s okay.”

Xiaoxin also advised: “Shu Lawyer, you should go change your clothes quickly. Otherwise, if you catch a cold, the kids will be better tomorrow, and you’ll infect them again.”

Although Shu Tinglan didn't want to leave the children for a moment, Xiao Xin was right, she couldn't get sick again. So, accompanied by Yi Muyang, she went home first to take a bath and change her clothes.

As soon as they left, Xiaoxin's parents gently sighed.

“Your lawyer Shu is really not easy, sigh, you can help more if you can.”

Xiaoxin nodded, she liked Lawyer Shu very much. Although the law firm was small and didn't seem to have a bright future, Lawyer Shu was very professional and responsible. She had been guiding Xiaoxin step by step. If it wasn't for her child, Lawyer Shu would definitely be at a higher level of development now.

"Is your husband Shu's lawyer deceased" Xiaoxin's mother asked curiously.

"I guess so, but nothing specific was mentioned."

“You’re still too young. If your husband really passed away, you’d have your in-laws and other relatives, right With such adorable twins, wouldn't your in-laws be eager to take them in She probably had a child out of wedlock or was deceived by a man.” After Xiaoxin’s mother finished her words, she added another sentence.

“You can’t learn from her like that. You can see how hard she has it, can’t you”

Xiao Xin had never thought about this question, Lawyer Sun and his wife also never asked Lawyer Shu about her child. Everyone just assumed that she was widowed after her husband's death.

Xiaoxin thought her parents' analysis made sense, so she picked up her phone and went online to look up information about Lawyer Shu for the first time. There were many people with the same name as Shu Tinglan online, so she carefully browsed through them one by one. With the sharp eyes and perseverance of a lawyer, she patiently scrolled through webpages, looking for evidence until she finally found a link related to law.

Upon clicking, it turned out to be the official website of Hongyuan Law Firm, marked by a red circle. The website had an announcement from three years ago, enthusiastically celebrating the successful completion of the Yuchong Kangyang City project by the acquisition team led by lawyer Shu Tinglan.

Is it the same person

Xiao Xin thinks it probably isn't Lawyer Shu, right Because Hongzheng Law Firm is a well-known firm in the "red circle," and it's also the M&A group. Their business is quite different.

She found the lawyer profile section on the official website of Hongzheng Law Firm and, according to the first letter of the surname, quickly found the three words "Shu Tinglan."

The introduction is very detailed, with photos, graduation schools, and past case studies.

Work experience includes: Qining Food Crafts Co., Ltd., Zhuoyuan Technology, Tingjing Finance, and Yuzhong Real Estate.

These projects are all too high-end, especially Zhuoyuan Technology and Tingjing Finance, which are among the top companies in the industry.

So it shouldn't be the same person, right

Especially that work photo, Lawyer Shu was wearing a very stylish and beautiful professional outfit. Her makeup was exquisite, her long hair was softly curled, and she smiled brightly at the camera, looking so different from the Lawyer Shu I knew.

She knew Lawyer Shu, who was not good at dressing up. She wore plain clothes, no makeup, and never smiled. All this time she had known him, she had never seen Lawyer Shu smile.

So it's definitely not the same person, and besides, if they had worked on projects for Zhuo Yuan Technology, how could they be so low-key

Yi Muyang was visiting Shu Tinglan's home for the first time. It seemed to be a two-bedroom apartment, but she had divided it into three rooms, so the living room felt a bit cramped. To ensure the safety of the children, there were thick mats covering the floor. Besides toys and a sofa, there were no other pieces of furniture in the living room. Looking around, everything belonged to the children.

She went to take a shower. The bathroom was just inside the door. He heard faint sounds and felt uneasy, his heart pounding like crazy. So he simply went out and waited in his car downstairs.

Shu Tinglan finished washing quickly and then packed up his bag simply before going downstairs.

Yi Muyang had his windows open, and he saw her running towards him at once. Her hair was half-dried from the wind, and she wore a simple gray cotton dress that outlined her figure perfectly. Her waist was so slender, it seemed like it could break if you pinched it.

Shu Tinglan usually wore formal work attire during the day. She rarely wore casual clothes at home, so she had simply grabbed a long dress without much thought.

Yimu Yang cleared his throat and drove her to the hospital.

A drive of just over twenty minutes was akin to torture for him. He was a young, virile man, and the sports car felt cramped. The confined space was saturated with her scent: a delicate mix of shampoo and body wash, mingled with an intoxicating hormonal fragrance that sent his heart racing.

He pressed down on the gas pedal and sped towards the hospital. At this hour, there were few cars on the road, and his sports car flew along.

"Take it easy, be safe." Shu Tinglan gripped the seatbelt with some tension.

Yi Mu Yang obediently eased off the gas pedal a little, then cracked open the window a sliver to let some of the scent inside fade. Otherwise, he felt like he was about to do something out of line.

When they reached the hospital, Yi Muyang said to her.

“Go ahead, I’ll be there in a bit.” He needed to catch his breath down here, adjust his state of mind, and prevent the wild beast within him from rearing its head again.

"Good." Shu Tinglan grabbed her suitcase and left.

Xiaoxin saw Lawyer Shu enter and quickly gave up her lounge chair to her. Her parents were already asleep in the accompanying bed.

"No need, I'll just watch the children for a bit." Shu Tinglan whispered, walking to the bedside and glancing from left to right at the children.

Xiao Xin only then noticed that Lawyer Shu was wearing a long dress. It was the first time he had seen Lawyer Shu wear a dress. It was a very simple dress, but it made her look completely different.

For some reason, she thought of the introduction on Hong Zheng Law Firm's website just now and blurted out.

“Mr. Shu, were you a mergers and acquisitions lawyer at Hongzheng Law Firm in Senzhou before”

Shu Tinglan stiffened and answered truthfully.

“Yes. There wasn't anything to hide, I just didn't bring it up.”

Upon receiving a positive response, Xiaoxin almost jumped off the chair she was sitting on.

"Really That lawyer Shu is really you, that's amazing!"ked straight ahead; she wasn't in the mood to talk to him today.Result, she took two steps, and her bag strap was pulled by Lu Kuo from behind, dragging her back two steps and standing beside him.Lu K...
