An Lan felt a headache coming on.
Li Yuchen did added fuel to the fire."Chief Judge Xu, I will remember what you said. Tomorrow morning if we found you stole a kiss from Ms. An, we would not remain silent. We will sue you until your reputation is ruined."
"No problem, " Xu Baohan nodded."As a judge, I understand that there are certain things I can't do without her consent, otherwise I'll violate the article 237 of the criminal law."
"That's right, it's good that you are aware of that." Li Yuchen nodded.
An Lan really wanted to kill Li Yuchen. He was selling her for the sake of the law firm."Alright, alright, let's go to my place. I admit defeat, guys."
"Let's go then."
A light flashed in Xu Baohan's eyes, then he followed her to the parking lot to get her car.
When they got into the car, Xu Baohan suddenly said, "An Lan, do you want me to drive? You're quite tired today."
An Lan thought for a second. Driving was boring. Sometimes, she just wanted to have someone drive for her while she sat comfortably in the front passenger seat.
"My driving skills are very good, " Xu Baohan said."It has been three years since I broke the traffic laws."
"Really?" An Lan was surprised. After all, she lose 30 points a year for violating traffic rules, and she had to ask friends to lend her driver's licenses to cancel the points.
Xu Baohan nodded."Next time, if you want to cancel points, you can ask me. My license never loses points."
"..."
He seemed to have read her mind.
An Lan coughed and calmly looked up."Thank you, but I usually don't points either."
"An Lan, you have many good virtues, " Xu Baohan praised her generously, "Nowadays, there are very few drivers who don't break the rules. If every citizen could follow the traffic rules like you, there wouldn't be so many traffic accidents every day."
"... of course, " An Lan answered guiltily.
"I'll drive." Xu Baohan took the keys from her."Your car is better than mine. I need to get used to the feeling of being with someone rich."
An Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She let him drive. It was the rush hour and the most congested time of the day. She could play with her phone while he drove.
On the way, she read news on her phone. There was no lack of social news. A coal mine collapsed in one province; the CEO of a certain listed company molested children, etc.
When she talked about the news with Xu Baohan, he would always comment that what some criminal law the suspects had committed and how many years they'd get.
An Lan listened for a while and glanced at him with a strange look in her eyes.
"What's wrong? Was my answer wrong?" Xu Baohan noticed her gaze."There are indeed loopholes in the law. We intend to propose a change to the higher-ups."
"The law can't change overnight." An Lan leaned to him."But you act and talk like the book of criminal law. Aren't you angry at all about these cases?"
"... I've seen too many of them, " Xu Baohan said indifferently.
An Lan was silent. She had seen too many of them, too.
"An Lan, you're a lawyer. If you have the chance, you must make people like them receive greater punishment." Xu Baohan gave her a deep look."Lawyers can also fight for justice."
