Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn
Chapter 313 - Chapter 313 313 This is a complete humiliation

Chapter 313: 313 This is a complete humiliation! Chapter 313: 313 This is a complete humiliation! Lawyer An Li’en didn’t take it seriously, especially such a boring ban. How could that be possible?

What was An Lan anyway?

With this attitude, Lawyer An Li’en stuck to his stance and swore to sue the siblings An Zijun and Sister An Lan.

What era was it, to think there were still people who believed that someone could really cover the sky with one hand?

And the boss Yan would tell him what it meant to have one’s imagination limited by poverty.

…

Lawyer An Li’en refused to plead guilty, and An Zijun on the other side clung to him tenaciously.

The police favored An Zijun’s testimony because he could explain all the details. When the police checked his account, they found only half the amount had been deposited, so where had the other half gone?

But no one had any evidence.

That showed just how meticulous Lawyer An Li’en’s mind was.

The police, frustrated, could only suspend the investigation against Lawyer An Li’en for the time being.

Now everyone knew Lawyer An Li’en was guilty, but they just couldn’t bring him to justice.

For this, Lawyer An Li’en was smug, proud of his caution back in the day and even went online to provoke.

@Lawyer An Li’en: “I have always believed in the fairness of the law, in the justice of this world, no matter how you see me, but I am innocent.”

Below, netizens ridiculed in a chorus.

@Fatty Tiger: “Makes me so angry, get lost.”

@National Service Daji: “People like him don’t die a good death.”

@Mint C: “What a pity, is there really no one who can prove his guilt? Not even An Lan?”

Early in the morning, the internet was abuzz.

Shi Lan was sitting on Yan Shixiu’s lap, drinking milk, looking at her phone, and sent a message too.

@An Lan: “You’re awesome.”

Everyone: “???”

What did An Lan mean? Was she publicly praising Lawyer An Li’en for being awesome? Did it mean she was conceding?

So, had An Lan ultimately failed to pass the level?

In fact, the young miss was just being sarcastic, giving a little mock praise to let Lawyer An savor the moment of pride a bit longer–whether he was guilty or not didn’t matter since Lawyer An wouldn’t be able to find a job anyway. He was completely unaware of the seriousness of the situation at this point.

It was just that the netizens felt pity, knowing the person was guilty but ultimately having to watch him remain at large, a real shame.

The boss Yan, serving as the young miss’s chair, couldn’t help but laugh lightly when he saw those three words she posted because he could feel that Shi Lan was now treating Lawyer An Li’en, that jumping clown, with a playful attitude.

“Boss Yan.”

“Hmm?” Yan Shixiu responded, embracing the young miss.

“Let’s make a bet on how long he’ll last. If I guess right, you’ll take a day out to go golfing with me,” Shi Lan turned her head and said to the man behind her.

“Three days,” Yan Shixiu said a number quite contentedly.

“I want to guess three days, you pick another day,” the young miss said very domineeringly.

“Then what’s the point of this bet? You might as well just notify me that we’re going to play golf and to get ready to accompany you,” Yan Shixiu leaned back in his chair, looking rather helpless, yet his tone was full of indulgence.

“Is that not okay?” Shi Lan asked dangerously.

“How about three days from now, at the same course?” Yan Shixiu sought her opinion.

Shi Lan twisted her upper body back and leaned in close to Boss Yan’s ear, saying, “Without exercise, my back won’t hold up, Boss Yan. After all, golf has a miraculous effect on strengthening the muscles of the waist and abdomen.”

…

Defying their ill luck, the entire family of Lawyer An Li’en started to take action separately the next day. An Li’en went to look for a legal job again, his wife applied for managerial positions once more, and his parents also switched their child to a different kindergarten, yet…

When An Li’en walked into the first law firm, he presented his resume. Having worked on several major cases with a not too shabby win rate, for a small or medium-sized firm, his presence would be a significant boost of status. The HR was overjoyed. They sat together and talked for over forty minutes, even discussing the salary package at one point.

An Li’en lowered his expectations, feeling like the interview was almost in the bag.

However, when he mentioned his salary expectations, the HR’s face changed immediately, saying, “Mr. An, I’m afraid we can’t offer that amount.”

An Li’en thought for a moment and gave his bottom line, to which the HR person laughed, “You think too highly of us. How could our small workshop afford such a Buddha as you?”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Mr. An, we thought you were willing to work as our intern,” said the HR lady, batting her large, innocent eyes.

After hearing this, An Li’en grabbed his briefcase and marched out.

This was a complete insult!

“Pah, with such a character, still a lawyer? You’d swindle someone to death without them knowing why. If any colleague dares hire you, I’ll write my name backwards.”

An Li’en could hear the HR’s disdainful voice behind him.

Then, with a restless heart, An Li’en went to interview with the second and third law firms, but was repeatedly rejected.

“Mr. An? I’m sorry, but you’re too outstanding. Our firm might not be the right fit for you.”

“Sorry, we’re not hiring fresh faces.”

“An Li’en? Maybe you should try somewhere else?”

“Regrettably, our firm focuses on divorce cases.”

“We don’t need lawyers, but we could use someone for menial tasks. Are you up for that?”

And so, An Li’en spent the morning interviewing at ten different law firms. However, after reviewing his resume, all of them made up excuses to tactfully reject him. He even tried a few firms with not so strong scale and reputation, but without exception, no one dared to hire him.

Not a single one!

His wife faced the same ordeal. Even with a polished resume and extensive management experience, once they saw her name, they immediately shook their heads.

“Sorry, though you are very qualified, you just don’t suit our position.”

“My apologies, your husband’s recent incidents have caused quite a stir, and we don’t want any trouble.”

“Regretfully, we’re not hiring. That was an old ad.”

“Maybe try your luck in another country? Consider emigration.”

Both were highly educated and competent, yet they constantly faced rejection. Wasn’t this indicative enough?

As for his parents, their attempts to find a kindergarten for their child were also met with rejection after rejection. Once the director at the kindergarten heard who the child’s parents were, they immediately declined, not wanting the other children to be affected.

At the end of the day, the whole family came back with nothing. Although An Li’en seemed to have the upper hand verbally, in reality, he was far from realizing what he had lost.

An Li’en planned to try his luck in a different city the next day.
