She Only Cares About Cultivation

"You, you only know how to comfort me, thinking I don’t understand it, your car was just serviced, how could the brakes possibly fail? The police arrived, and I already found the vehicle insurance and service records from your study and handed them over. You say you’re not incapable in other fields, why insist on doing this? You also have three children, for their sake, you should find a job with a higher safety factor. I remember you also have a CPA certificate and a high school Chinese teaching qualification, so many certificates, you could do anything, why insist on doing this?"

It seems her image as a strong woman has deeply rooted in Auntie’s mind, a slight mishap, and it scares her.

At this time, any explanation is futile, just smile and comfort her, but internally not really feeling that way. This is an extremely challenging industry, she’s merely dabbling in it now, this incident ought to be a warning from the other party, because they previously sought a settlement, but her client didn’t agree, so they vented their fury on her?

This case not only involves leaking commercial secrets, internal moles, but the client’s private investigator also found the other party evading taxes, which is quite serious. They are scared, yet unaware that such desperate measures only expose more problems.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, she tossed her phone and laptop into the space, and as for some of the documents she carried that day, before she smashed the car window, she took advantage of their panic to transfer them into her space, thus preserving the most valuable information. Otherwise, it might have caused more delays.

The boss called her, wanting her to rest and recover, leaving the rest for other colleagues, she refused.

"Where you fall, from there you must rise, if they want to use extreme measures, then we’ll go all out till the end, let’s see which side justice really stands on!"

Qi Qi, full of confidence, moved the boss greatly: "If this case succeeds, I’ll cover the cost of your car!"

Qi Qi giggled: "Alright, that’s what you said, maybe with good luck, I’ll get a motor vehicle license plate!"

The green energy vehicle license plates are easier to get, but motor vehicle license plates are not easy to come by, Qi Qi has already queued for two years without getting a number.

In the lawyer industry, traveling is frequent, she can’t keep driving a battery car, can she? That car is okay for city runs, but outside the city, the safety risks are too high.

After the battery car got soaked, repairs made it usable again, easier to fix than a motor vehicle, and this car has been used for many years, if it gets fixed, it’ll be good for Auntie to use for grocery shopping, because even when fixed, its performance is no longer reliable as before, might as well retire it directly.

Qi Qi stayed in the hospital for a week, after discharge, she threw herself back into work again, during this week, she was said to be hospitalized, but her computer and phone never rested, quite busy, even sometimes having meetings in the hospital, felt overwhelmingly busy, Auntie couldn’t persuade her, finally had to give up.

"In these years in Beijing, I’ve broadened my horizons, you strong women, workaholics, generally having houses, cars, kids, and household registration, rarely remarry after divorce, mostly single if self-made, when buying groceries, I encounter many nannies, all are female breadwinners, leaving kids to nannies, no wonder so many boys now can’t find a wife."

"Of course, I’m not meaning to disparage, I genuinely feel society has undergone profound changes. When men are still hesitating over tens of thousands or a hundred thousand betrothal gift, girls have already started planning for their future to survive on their own, not only buying cars but also homes with family help, using their salary to pay the mortgage, and truly enjoy life every month, it’s truly remarkable!"

Qi Qi nodded, "What forces girls to be independent is this increasingly realistic society. When girls want kids, they can have one with someone, but men cannot; they want to find a progeny tool, yet unwilling to pay betrothal gifts, wanting something for nothing, and encountering a difficult mother-in-law, the days are really unbearable. Especially when the family backgrounds are mismatched, it’s even more unsuitable."
