Chapter 267: Business Lawyer
Chen Mo took Joyce to the hotel.
Seeing Joyce's flushed face, Chen Mo couldn't hold back and went for a second round.
When Chen Mo arrived at Sandy's place, it was already midnight.
Sandy had already been asleep at that hour, and was startled to see Chen Mo arrive suddenly.
"Why did you come over at this hour?"
Hmm?
Chen Mo felt odd hearing Sandy's question.
It gave him the feeling that he was unwelcome and that his timing was off.
"What's the matter? Is it inconvenient for me to come at this time?"
"Hmph! You disturbed my rest; I don't want to deal with you today."
Sandy rolled over and turned her back to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo saw that she hadn't been here for over half a month and was sulking!
Luckily, she didn't put a green hat on me.
It's just that I'm hungry; feeding me enough will do!
Chen Mo quickly stripped off his clothes, slipped into the bed, and snuck up from behind.
Unexpectedly, Sandy spun around, and her 43‑inch long legs kicked toward Chen Mo.
Fortunately, Chen Mo reacted swiftly and grabbed the long leg.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't think you can touch me without a shower! I have no idea which woman you just messed with, you smell fishy!"
Damn! I forgot to shower again!
Chen Mo reminded himself that stealing a fishy scent outside without getting rid of it isn't a good habit; he'll have to change it next time.
Chen Mo hurried to the bathroom and took a shower in two minutes.
Returning to the bedroom, Chen Mo stood at the foot of the bed, grabbed Sandy's two legs, and pulled her over.
You dare kick me with your 43‑inch long legs? Watch how I punish you today!
That night, Sandy was thoroughly schooled!
The next day, not until the sun was high did Sandy, exhausted, finally get up from the bed.
By then, Chen Mo had already gone out to buy breakfast and returned.
After the meal, Chen Mo got down to business.
"Sandy, does your law firm have any capable business lawyers? I'm looking to acquire a company and need a lawyer to draft a few contracts."
"Business lawyer? Our firm's main business is criminal cases; we have senior barristers who handle criminal defense.
We really don't have the business lawyer you want."
Sandy thought for a moment, then continued, "However, I do know a business lawyer; want me to introduce you?"
Chen Mo frowned and asked, "Is there anything special about the lawyer you mentioned?"
If there were no special circumstances, Sandy would have introduced him directly without asking Chen Mo's opinion.
Sandy said, "She was a junior from my school, a few years behind me, and just graduated this year."
Hearing that, Chen Mo immediately refused, "Just graduated? That's not acceptable!
The company I'm acquiring is worth tens of billions; this isn't a small case any lawyer can take on."
"Don't underestimate my junior; she's very capable," Sandy explained. "Although she just graduated, she was top of her class in school.
Moreover, her godfather is a non‑official legislator in Gangdao, Jian Aowei, Senior Barrister, a veteran senior lawyer in Gangdao. She has learned alongside the Senior Barrister since childhood and is very experienced."
Hearing Sandy's words, Chen Mo's interest was piqued: Jian Aowei, Senior Barrister? Legislator?
Then his goddaughter must be Ou Yongen?

What a big treasure!
Chen Mo's mind immediately became active.
If I could get Ou Yongen, then I could also leverage her godfather Senior Barrister Jian's social connections, couldn't I?
Thus, on the literary side I'd have Senior Barrister Jian, on the martial side I'd have Huang Pangzi, and over the foreign side there's Peter Middleton who owes me a life‑saving favor.
Chen Mo suddenly realized his network in Gangdao was also quite strong!
Although Senior Barrister Jian's affairs are still unstarted, Huang Pangzi's connections are shady, and Peter Middleton's life‑saving favor can probably be used only once.
Hmm, that's still strong—strong in any case.
Chen Mo felt a secret joy, but his face showed a reluctant expression: "Alright. Though she's just a fresh graduate, I'll let her try for your sake."
"Fine, I'll call her in a moment to see if she's available; if she is, I'll have her contact you."
"Okay," Chen Mo nodded.
"But," Sandy suddenly warned, "my junior is still young and naive; you must not have any bad thoughts toward her!"
"What are you talking about?" Chen Mo pretended to be angry, "I haven't even met her; what bad thoughts could I have?"
"What kind of person do you think I am?"
Sandy rolled her eyes at Chen Mo: "Heh heh!"
Near noon, Chen Mo returned to the bar, remembered he had promised Chen Taotao to handle those five crabs, and called Shen Guodong.
"Guodong, do you know the Zhongqing Society?"
"Of course!" Shen Guodong replied, "I've heard Jin Ge mention it before; the Zhongqing Society has been in Shen Shui Bu for a few years, but its territory is small, just three or four streets."
"Shen Shui Bu? What a coincidence!" Chen Mo laughed, "Assign a few brothers to investigate the Zhongqing Society thoroughly, especially their leader."
Originally Chen Mo thought just killing five crabs would be enough, but he didn't expect there would still be a pleasant surprise.
The territory of the Loyal Youth Society is in Shen Shui Bu, so we seized the territory as well and gave it to Gao Jin.
They're all our own brothers, so it's not cheap for outsiders.
Although in name Gao Jin is now also a big boss, on equal footing with Chen Mo.
But in practice, Gao Jin still privately regards Chen Mo as his boss, and he still listens to Chen Mo's words.
"Right, isn't it almost time for the Triad Society's big meeting?"
During this period, Chen Mo's mind has been full of stock market matters, to the point of almost forgetting about the meeting.
"Yeah, the meeting is tomorrow." Shen Guodong nodded, not knowing why Chen Mo asked that.
"It's just a Triad Society meeting; at least once a month, sometimes two or three times, nothing special."
Chen Mo chuckled twice: "When I came back from Meiliguo, I had Jimi bring plenty of magazines and newspapers. Bring them to the meeting tomorrow to show those big bosses and big shots."
Shen Guodong doubted: "Those are all foreign gibberish; they can't understand them, right?"
"Among those in the Triad Society, few are educated; being able to understand a few English words is already good—who could read English newspapers and magazines?"
"Many of Chen Mo's subordinates have also read them, but few can understand them."
"Hehe, it's fine. Not everyone needs to understand; as long as someone can, it's enough."
"When making money, keep a low profile; once the money is in hand, there's no need to stay low-key."
