Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 565: Chapter 384: Grandmaster! Sect Ancestor!

Children don’t understand, go talk to the adults at home.

"Alright, sorry to trouble you, Master!" Xu Liang said.

Zhao De smiled and nodded, then glanced at the time and said, "It’s getting late, I won’t keep you any longer."

"Go back and handle your business."

The case is closed.

But the matter wasn’t completely resolved.

After all, the conclusion of the second trial merely put a period at the end for Lv Xiong, but a larger wave of public opinion awaited Xu Liang!

Xu Liang understood and nodded immediately.

"Alright, Master, I’ll head back now. I’ll reach out if I need anything."

With that, he slowly stepped out.

*Squeak~*

The door opened.

Zhao Yi, who had been waiting outside, was startled and instinctively looked at Xu Liang as he emerged.

Seeing this, Zhao Yi immediately raised his eyebrow, lowered his voice, and asked quietly:

"How is Lawyer Xu doing?"

"Have you thought about relocating for better development?"

Hearing this, Xu Liang didn’t hold back and responded immediately:

"I’ve thought it over, I’ll establish a branch in Qingshi City and take the main personnel from the law firm to develop in Upper City."

The law firm now has more than just the dozen or so students and the three, including Qian Li, from the beginning.

At his indication, Wang Feiyu started recruiting, expanding the team to thirty professional lawyers, making it a medium-sized law firm, enough to send a part of the team to Upper City.

But...

"Judge Zhao, why are you more excited than I am?"

Xu Liang paused suddenly, looking at the visibly excited Zhao Yi in front of him, feeling puzzled.

"Hmm? Excited about what?"

The very excited Zhao Yi came back to his senses and, looking at Xu Liang, quickly composed himself and said solemnly:

"I’m happy for Lawyer Xu."

"After all, Lawyer Xu developing in Upper City is indeed a good thing."

Saying this, he couldn’t help but smirk again.

Haha, if he leaves, wouldn’t Lanshan Province return to having a major case only once in a long while, and even then not one I have to handle?

Instead of constantly being used like a workhorse, having to bear everything myself!?

Great.

Developing in Upper City is great!

Indeed, that’s right, a lawyer should shine bright in Upper City, have ambition!

"Lawyer Xu, is there anything you need to prepare? I can assist you if needed." Zhao Yi said frankly, his tone a bit hurried.

Xu Liang found it a bit puzzling and shook his head.

"No need, just some contracts."

He has quite a bit to prepare for the move to Upper City.

For example, the law firm.

Also, local contracts, and Yang Ruoxi’s need to avoid suspicion.

But all these are quite manageable, so it’s no issue.

"I’ll head off now, Judge Zhao, you go ahead with your work."

With those words.

Xu Liang hurriedly left the court, heading outside.

Watching his back.

Zhao Yi let out a long sigh of relief, smiling.

With Xu Liang gone, he’ll be at peace.

With Xu Liang gone, he’ll find some quiet!

The dreadful 007 and unexpected cases have been suffocating him.

After the Hunter·case, he doesn’t need to think; the subsequent Club·case will definitely have a part for him.

It used to seem never-ending, but now... as long as he gets through the Club·case, can’t he just cruise to retirement!?

Previously retiring from the Middle Court, the pension wasn’t much.

But now with the Supreme Court, his position has even risen a bit, and the pension is much more than before!

"Good that he left, good that he left..."

Zhao Yi thought contentedly.

Just about to leave, but noticed that the office door was still open, so Zhao Yi instinctively went to close it.

However, just as he reached the door handle...

Inside the office.

Wang Yao looked towards the door, stroked his chin, and suddenly said:

"Come in."

Come... come in?

Zhao Yi felt a sudden jolt and was just about to pretend he didn’t hear and close the door, but Wang Yao spoke again:

"Judge Zhao, come in."

Called out by name...

Zhao Yi suppressed his emotions, closed the door, and walked heavily into the office.

"Dean Zhao, Chief Judge Wang." Zhao Yi greeted in a deep voice.

Wang Yao looked Zhao Yi up and down, then suddenly asked curiously:

"How many years has Judge Zhao been in this profession?"

Zhao Yi thought for a moment, shook his head, "I can’t remember, it should be about thirty years."

Thirty years... quite a rich history.

Even say, the first twenty-nine years were spent in grassroots work!

If it were a position like dean, that’s fine, as such positions hold significant actual power, but he’s just an ordinary judge.

And his capability is so outstanding!

"Does Judge Zhao have any complaints?" Wang Yao asked.

Complaints?

There definitely are.

’Don’t fleece the same sheep all the time!’

Zhao Yi grumbled inwardly.

Looking at his face, Wang Yao thought ’just as I suspected’.

Twenty-nine years of grassroots work experience wouldn’t make anyone satisfied, especially if they were exceptionally capable, never dropping the ball in critical moments.

But it’s fine.

Wang Yao’s excellence has been recognized, the days of idly waiting are gone!

"Judge Zhao... if you were promoted, and had to live separately from your family in different areas... would your family be willing?" Wang Yao suddenly asked gently.

Living separately... in different areas?

Zhao Yi paused, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He’s been in Lanshan Province, no reason to transfer to other provinces if promoted, and if not a lateral move, then...

Upper City?

"Chief Judge Wang, I think... I might not be able to shoulder such a big responsibility." Zhao Yi said ambiguously.

"Oh, I think it fits well!"

"Looking nationwide, no judge, even from the Supreme Court, has a resume more impressive than Judge Zhao’s!"
