Chapter 159: Changing Perspectives

~7 min read 1,384 words

Looking at the tardy Shen Yan, Lin Yang and the others were dazed for a good while.

Lin Yang asked, "Wait, Old Shen, you know Senior Brother He?"

Shen Yan said they had interacted a few times before, and Luo Qiqi let out a "Wow," exclaiming, "Shen Yan, that Senior Brother He is extremely famous in the legal industry; he almost never has a failed case, and he's also a senior partner at a Law Firm."

"If you know someone like that, getting your Practicing Certificate in the future will be a breeze."

If a Law School student wants to become a qualified and professional lawyer, they must go through the following two key steps:

First, the law student needs to take the Legal Professional Qualification Examination (abbreviated as "Law Exam"); only by successfully passing this hurdle can they successfully obtain the Lawyer Qualification Certificate they dream of.

However, this is merely a beginning. Next, these prospective lawyers also need to enter a formal Law Firm to begin a one-year internship. During this period, the prospective lawyers will personally participate in various actual cases, constantly accumulating experience and improving their professional literacy and practical abilities.

Finally, when they successfully complete the internship period and smoothly obtain the Practicing Certificate, they can proudly declare that they have officially stepped through the door of the legal profession.

And if, during the internship, there is an acquaintance who can personally teach them experience, the benefits for a rookie are self-evident; only in this way can they climb higher and faster, and not end up bumping around everywhere like a headless fly.

That is why when Luo Qiqi and the others learned that Shen Yan and He Yichen were well-acquainted, they appeared so surprised.

Shen Yan didn't take this to heart at all, "My relationship with Senior Brother He is just average; saying all this is empty talk."

The few of them sighed at the pity; after all, things are easier done with acquaintances, and if possible, they hoped to integrate into their work faster after graduation.

Yu Youwei said, "Shen Yan, you should keep in touch with Senior Brother He more in the future; it will be good for your future development."

Shen Yan just smiled and said nothing; his ambitions did not lie there. The reason he performed so excellently was merely to hope that when he skipped class, those teachers could be more open-minded and turn a blind eye.

At worst, there was still the Student Union as a cover; as long as they didn't let him fail a course, that was fine.

Before long, the lecture officially began. He Yichen first gave a self-introduction, including personal information, his role as a senior partner at a law firm, and some of the major achievements he had attained.

The students widened their eyes, feeling it was impressive even if they didn't quite understand why.

Shen Yan turned a deaf ear to this and opened the stock page for Galaxy Power to browse. It was exactly the same as in his memory; it seemed his small "butterfly" flapping its wings had not caused any impact on the stock market.

Shen Yan's seat was sandwiched between Yu Youwei and Wu Yue'er. Seeing him obsessed with his phone, Yu Youwei advised, "Senior Brother He is teaching the experience of his predecessors, the difficulties he once encountered, and the methods to deal with them; you should listen to the lecture properly."

"Got it, just worry about yourself," Shen Yan said dismissively.

Yu Youwei couldn't do anything about him; if she kept talking, she would probably just become annoying, so she simply let him be.

Wu Yue'er, however, understood Shen Yan quite well. She leaned in and asked, "Are you not planning to work in the legal industry in the future, which is why you don't care about these at all?"

Shen Yan looked at her in surprise, then nodded slightly. It was university, after all; getting a diploma was enough.

The corners of Wu Yue'er's mouth lifted slightly; she had discovered another big secret of Shen Yan's. This guy had a very clear plan for his life, and every step had a deep meaning.

It was estimated that no one would ever imagine that the Law School's greatest talent was not planning to be a lawyer; if the news got out, it would probably shock everyone.

How ridiculous! From beginning to end, Yu Youwei hadn't even figured out Shen Yan's needs, taking everything for granted.

Sigh! Little sister, you're on the wrong path!

However, Wu Yue'er had no intention of reminding Yu Youwei, nor did she have the obligation. She felt that she was the one who understood Shen Yan best, whether in terms of thought or in every other aspect, they were more compatible.

As long as she waited patiently, there would eventually be a day when it blossomed and bore fruit.

The lecture lasted for two hours and ended promptly at nine o'clock. Immediately after, a large group of ambitious youths surrounded He Yichen, asking all sorts of questions.

"Senior Brother He, which do you think is better, taking the Law Exam or the civil service exam?"

"Senior Brother He, tell us more about the techniques for passing the Law Exam."

"Senior Brother He, I'm supposed to intern next year; is your law firm still hiring?"

"Senior Brother He, are you married?" This question was asked by Xiao Chuchu.

Sun Dawei, who was beside her, patted her and said indignantly, "What does it have to do with you whether he's married or not? What, are you planning to get involved?"

Xiao Chuchu giggled and held his arm, acting coquettishly, "Oh! I was just joining in the fun and asking casually; why did you take it seriously?"

Sun Dawei felt a shiver of pleasure instantly. He leaned into her ear, blew a breath, and whispered, "How about we go out and stay somewhere tonight? I'm feeling uncomfortable from holding back."

"I'm shy, and I'm scared because you're so impatient."

"What's there to be scared of? Love between a man and a woman is only natural; I'll be good to you in the future."

"No, men won't cherish what they get too easily; I still need to test you for a while."

What one cannot get is always stirring; Xiao Chuchu's reserve made Sun Dawei itch with desire. Fully believing this was a conservative and well-behaved woman, he quickly said, "Baby, I'm sincere about you. How about this, tomorrow I'll take you to buy a few outfits and a bag, how's that?"

"Really? Dawei, you're so good!"

Xiao Chuchu's face immediately bloomed into a smile, and she swayed as she held Sun Dawei's arm.

Although she had a glimmer of expectation for love deep in her heart, she did not want to give it away easily.

They say a woman changes her face faster than turning a page, but men are no exception; there are plenty who pull up their pants and refuse to acknowledge their actions.

Due to the influence of her upbringing, she was extremely insecure. Her current state of life was quite good; she dressed brightly and beautifully every day and had no worries about food or clothing. As for that business between men and women, she preferred to keep delaying it, letting each day pass as it came.

The scene of the young couple being lovey-dovey was taken in by Zhu Baoping, whose face turned a shade of green. Looking at He Yichen, who was surrounded by everyone like the stars around the moon, Zhu Baoping vowed that he must become such a successful person in the future, wearing a suit and leather shoes, with a watch and gold.

Lin Yang scoffed at this, "Give it a rest. In class, you're just at an average level, and looking at the legal industry, you're just an insignificant little pebble that can't stir up a single ripple. Please face reality, okay?"

Zhu Baoping shook his head; temporary success or failure didn't represent anything. The one who persists to the end is the true winner.

Moreover, there are 360 trades, and every trade has its master. At this moment, his enthusiasm for becoming a lawyer had completely vanished; making big money and doing business was the true way out.
