Chapter 1036: 730 Evaporation (Thanks for the tip!)
"I’m feeling a bit unwell, ask them not to disturb me."
"Alright. I’ll try to come back earlier to stay with you."
The housekeeper, who was wiping the stairs, heard the exchange upstairs and immediately after, the master of the house, Ding He, came down.
"Lady has a bit of a cold, she has taken medicine already, and unless instructed, do not disturb her."
"Yes, sir."
Ding He went down the stairs, left the house, got into the car, and left home as if nothing was out of the ordinary.
"Ding-a-ling-a-ling..."
A mobile phone rang on the passenger side.
The screen displayed Fang Jun.
Ding He ignored it, and tirelessly drove for nearly two hours to a waste disposal plant.
Ignoring the pungent smell, he parked the car, got out, and went to the back of the vehicle.
The electric trunk automatically opened.
Inside lay two black plastic bags, airtight and opaque, showing no hint of their contents.
Ding He picked up the two bags, and then it became apparent that one bag seemed to contain some spherical objects, while the other was elongated, containing more than one item, emitting odd clattering noises.
From the trunk of the car, Ding He looked around and then walked to a trash pit, raised his hands, and sequentially threw the two plastic bags down.
There was one more thing.
That mobile phone.
With an expressionless face, he stood by the trash pit for a while, then turned and got back into the BMW X5, driving back to Tianhe Law Firm.
"Ding Lawyer."
"Ding Lawyer."
"Ding Lawyer."
Subordinates greeted him one by one, simultaneously showing some surprise at his "return."
It was unknown what Ding He had experienced during the days he was gone; his face had lost its usual friendly smile. Facing his subordinates’ greetings, he just nodded slightly.
"Is everything ready?"
He walked to a workstation.
The male lawyer looking through documents raised his head, his eyes visibly tired probably from lack of sleep, but quickly responded, "Everything’s ready."
"Mm, notify them, we leave at four o’clock this afternoon."
"Yes, Ding Lawyer."
Ding He didn’t say much, finished giving instructions, and then walked toward his office.
"That Germany case, it really went through?"
A lawyer from the next workstation leaned over.
The male lawyer who had attended Fang Qing’s farewell banquet rubbed his brow, "Should be set, didn’t you hear Ding Lawyer? We’re flying over today to meet."
"That case is progressing so quickly?"
"Who knows? Last night, I was asleep, and Ding Lawyer suddenly called, saying we were leaving today. I stayed up all night to prepare the documents, see my dark circles?"
Although forewarned, he didn’t expect it would be so urgent.
But that’s the way this line works; the client is king.
As long as there’s a client need, they must satisfy it with the utmost efficiency.
"It’s just one sleepless night, what’s the big deal? Think about the government-funded overseas travel, that’s something to be envious of. I’ve never been to Germany myself."
His colleague patted his shoulder, "Cheer up, there’ll be plenty of time to rest on the plane."
"Sigh, that’s the only way."
The lawyer surnamed Yu sighed, forcibly perked up, and continued with the final preparations before going abroad.
Office.
Although he hadn’t been there for a few days, the entire law firm operated smoothly.
Ding He slowly looked around and then took out his cell phone and made an international call.
"Dad, is your leg any better? Want me to bring some medicine over?"
"No need, there’s nothing I can’t buy here; why bother bringing it all the way from home? Too much trouble."
"It’s no trouble; I was planning to come and see you guys anyway."
"You’re coming to Italy?"
Surprise from the other end.
"Mm."
"On a business trip?"
"No, it’s been over a year since I’ve seen you. I just want to come and see you both."
"I appreciate the thought, your mom and I are doing well here, no need for you to worry. You’re busy with work; no need to make the effort."
Ding He spoke calmly, but his cheeks involuntarily trembled.
"Dad, are you still... holding it against me?"
No response came from the other end, silence.
Of course.
For the Fang Family, he was undoubtedly a phoenix man, so much so that during his wedding, his parents did not even sit at the main table.
His family was not wealthy, but at least they were middle-class. Had he not taken this shortcut, his life wouldn’t have been too bad.
But in life, there are too many temptations, and it isn’t always possible to stay sober.
Because he married Fang Ai to struggle less for decades, he faced countless disdainful looks, which even embroiled his parents in numerous grievances.
To this day, Fang Ai had never called his parents "mom and dad." At the wedding, she merely perfunctorily addressed them as uncle and aunty.
And since then,
Fang Ai never saw his parents again.
"All that’s in the past, why bring it up? As long as you are doing well, your mom and I don’t mind anything. Besides, we’re quite comfortable here in Italy, many people envy this kind of life abroad."
Though they were angry initially, ultimately, they still cared for their son.
"Son, your mom and I are old; who knows how long we’ll live. At our age, some things that couldn’t be understood can now be understood. Don’t burden yourself. You’ve chosen your path, now walk it confidently, without overthinking."
Ding He held the phone, silent.
"How are you and Fang Ai doing?"
