Chapter 267

~6 min read 1,131 words

Only the judge would pronounce the verdict in court, directly awarding custody of Luo Le to Luo Nian,

and subsequently, based on the face-to-face confrontation between Luo Nian and Chen Yiyang in court, also revoked Chen Yiyang's visitation rights.

However,

after Luo Nian and Chen Yiyang divorced,

life was actually not good.

To take care of Luo Le,

Luo Nian was forced to resign; before Luo Le turned one, she barely managed to get through relying solely on her savings and Liang Youan's support,

and once Luo Le turned one, various expenses increased day by day.

With Luo Nian staying home full-time to care for Luo Le, she simply had no way to work,

so,

Luo Nian could only seize every opportunity to find some part-time jobs to earn a little pocket money.

Therefore, over these three years,

Luo Nian had almost no income, and her financial condition was very poor.

And during these three years,

Chen Yiyang, after the divorce, had a life trajectory completely different from Luo Nian's.

In the first year after the divorce,

under a friend's suggestion, Chen Yiyang participated in the incubation of a startup company by investing his technology as equity,

in the second year,

the company incubation succeeded and consecutively received angel investments,

Chen Yiyang directly sold his original shares in the company, profiting nearly two million to exit.

In the second year,

Chen Yiyang assembled a makeshift team, casually registered as an individual proprietor, and then went into business on his own,

and coincidentally,

that year Chen Yiyang caught the wave of the autonomous driving craze; a small sensor he casually made unexpectedly won market favor,

in just one short year, he profited more than three million again,

in the third year,

Chen Yiyang simply cancelled the individual proprietorship and directly established a small startup company, then signed downstream supply agreements with companies like Qiandu and Mei Li Xiang,

putting aside everything else, the annual profit started at least at five million,

and now,

Chen Yiyang already has a house and a car in the Imperial Capital, and can be considered successful in his career.

If now,

Chen Yiyang hires a lawyer again to compete with Luo Nian for custody of Luo Le,

then it is obvious,

the current Luo Nian is at a great disadvantage,

on one side is Chen Yiyang with stable income, a house, and a car,

on the other side is Luo Nian with meager income and multiple moves,

looking solely at material conditions, medical conditions, and future educational conditions,

the judge and jury members from Kendingdu Society would definitely lean directly toward Chen Yiyang,

if adding Chen Yiyang's Imperial Capital household registration as a bonus point,

the possibility of the judge changing the ruling on Luo Le's custody is extremely high.

Even if at this moment Luo Nian could produce some evidence of Chen Yiyang threatening and forcing her,

Chen Yiyang's lawyer would likely use reasons such as being eager for the child's love to weaken the impact of this evidence,

so it would simply not serve any purpose.

Obviously,

Chen Yiyang's chances of winning this custody battle for Luo Le are very high,

while Luo Nian has almost no chance of winning.

Letting out a light sigh,

Liang Youan for a moment did not know how to solve this problem,

at this moment,

Luo Nian walked out carrying two plates of dishes,

then sat on the sofa, looked at Liang Youan, and asked, "Was it Chen Yiyang's call?"

Liang Youan was stunned for a moment, looking at Luo Nian, not knowing what to say.

Luo Nian smiled bitterly at this moment: "He knows I blocked everything of his long ago, so he went directly to you, right?"

"I guess he came to you to ask you to notify me that he wants to fight for custody of Luo Le, right?"

Liang Youan was stunned again, then asked with some confusion: "How did you know?"

"Hehe..."

Luo Nian smiled somewhat bitterly: "Before you returned, a lawyer's assistant named Sister Li Na came to find me, saying that Chen Yiyang entrusted them to fight for custody of Luo Le, so she came to investigate."

"Ah? They came directly to Zhaoshang Sect?"

Hearing this, Liang Youan was somewhat surprised, then immediately asked: "So what was the result? Did Sister Li Na say anything?"

"She said they would refuse Chen Yiyang's commission, but they would not rule out the possibility that Chen Yiyang would find other lawyers. So, she left me a business card."

After saying that,

Luo Nian took the business card Liuna had left her from her pocket and handed it to Liang Youan.

"An'an, I looked up her law firm and the Robin lawyer she mentioned. They are one of the top ten law firms in the capital and have handled numerous commercial cases worth billions."

"And the Robin lawyer she mentioned has an impressive resume; any single case he has handled would be enough to shock anyone."

"I checked their firm's fees for representation and consultation, and to be honest, I can't afford them."

"Sigh..."

She let out a long sigh,

and looking at Liang Youan, Luo Nian said, "So, if Chen Yiyang really hires a lawyer to sue me again, I might not even have the money to hire one to defend myself."

"I know."

Liang Youan sighed as well: "However, Chen Yiyang may have indeed hired another lawyer. He asked me to tell you to prepare for the lawsuit."

"……"

After a moment of silence,

Luo Nian leaned back on the sofa, helplessly staring at the ceiling,

and only after a while did she ask in a low voice, "Liang Youan, what should I do?"

……

"What should I do?"

In the kitchen of Song Qian's home,

Qin Feng watched Song Qian, who felt guilty because she had steamed the sea bass for two minutes too long,

and couldn't help but shake his head: "It was just two extra minutes; it's no big deal."

Hearing Qin Feng's reassurance,

Song Qian's expression finally softened a bit,

and then, looking at Qin Feng, she shook her head and smiled: "I really don't know what I was thinking just now, steaming it for two extra minutes..."

"It's fine; steaming it a few minutes longer won't change the taste."

Qin Feng smiled and helped Song Qian take the steamed sea bass out of the steamer.

Then,

Song Qian chopped chili peppers and green onions and heated some oil,

first pouring about 50 milliliters of steamed fish soy sauce into the plate,

then sprinkling the green onions and chili peppers on top,

and finally pouring the hot oil over them before carrying the plate toward the living room.

Meanwhile, Qin Feng watched Song Qian's back and shook his head slightly.
