Chapter 168: Chapter 127: Zhou Wang’s Chips_3
Wang Hongying began speaking, and Jiang Mo’s expression darkened.
“I can ask someone to look into it later, and if there’s anything I can do, I will help, but you can’t hold too much hope, do you understand?”
Wang Hongying spoke cryptically, but her meaning was clear.
Jiang Mo’s real desire was for Wang Hongying to personally take on the case—
Although Wang Hongying was a professor at Cai University, she was also a top criminal lawyer, but there were few cases that could compel her to act.
From Wang Hongying’s perspective, her concerns were quite normal.
The impact of this case was very negative, and it was almost impossible to overturn, and she also had to consider whether taking on such a case would tarnish her reputation.
For cultural figures, reputation is sometimes more important than profit…
“I understand, Professor.”
Jiang Mo nodded woodenly.
Zhou Wang didn’t say much either, not because there were outsiders present, but mainly because the offer he made wasn’t through words; actually, both he and Jiang Mo weren’t quite suitable to be there.
So after Professor Wang expressed her intentions, Zhou Wang gently pulled Jiang Mo and stood up.
“Well, Professor Wang, we won’t bother you anymore. Since this is our first visit to see you, we didn’t know what to bring; Jiang Mo mentioned you like tea. We chose this tea from a tobacco and liquor store to give you as a meeting gift, so please do accept it.”
Zhou Wang said, picking up the gift bag from beside his foot and placing it on the table.
Wang Hongying initially wanted to refuse, but when she heard it was conveniently bought from a tobacco and liquor store, presumably not something too expensive, she smiled and nodded.
“Alright, thank you. Today really isn’t convenient, the professor won’t keep you then. Zhou Wang, remember to come to my house for a meal with Jiang Mo next time, and taste my culinary skills.”
After saying goodbye, Wang Hongying asked Gao Xiaohu to see the two out.
…
After a short while, Gao Xiaohu returned, but there was another person behind him.
“Oh, Old Gao, did you leave work so early today?”
Seeing Gao Zhenbang, dressed sharply in a suit, entering the door, Wang Hongying was a bit surprised.
“Yes, I was just next door doing property registration. I heard Qingkui was coming today, so I came back after work… Fortunately, I made it, I really want to have a good talk with Qingkui.”
Gao Zhenbang said, smiling as he took off his coat and hung it at the door.
“Uncle Gao!”
Jiang Qingkui stood up helplessly and signaled Tang Mao to greet him together.
Originally, after seeing Zhou Wang and Jiang Mo leave, knowing she wouldn’t gain much today, she also wanted to leave, but unexpectedly, Gao Zhenbang returned at this time…
No need to guess, Gao Zhenbang would definitely persuade her to join the law firm.
However, at this time, there was no way, so Jiang Qingkui could only brace herself and sit back down.
“Dad, you’re back!”
Gao Xiaoyin also ran out of the room upon hearing the commotion, smiling, “I’ll make tea for you!”
“Wait a minute… Is this the tea Qingkui brought? The old tea Xiao Ding gave before has become tiresome, let’s try this for a change.”
Gao Zhenbang smiled as he picked up the logo-less brown paper gift bag on the table.
“It was given by Jiang Mo and her boyfriend, the child has been very courteous lately… You met them just now, right?”
“Yes, I met them and said hello. Let me tell you, her boyfriend is quite handsome and has a nice demeanor, somehow I feel like he looks familiar…”
Gao Zhenbang continued with a grin, casually opening the gift bag, then was suddenly startled.
Gao Zhenbang’s expression became a bit more serious as he took out the two cakes of tea packaged in a black-and-white gift box.
It was said that Professor Wang Hongying loved tea, but actually, he was the one who truly understood tea, and because of his influence, Wang Hongying became known to the public as someone who loved tea.
Upon seeing the words “Iceland Old Village” on the gift box, he was surprised, and after carefully inspecting it, he couldn’t help but frown.
“Iceland Old Village No. 50? This…”
“What’s wrong, Old Gao?”
From her husband’s expression, Wang Hongying sensed something was off and couldn’t help but ask, “Is this tea… rare?”

“Not rare, still buyable if you have money; it’s just… a bit too expensive,” Gao Zhenbang chuckled wryly, “If I remember correctly, one cake of this type, 999 grams, might cost upwards of a hundred thousand…”
“Dad, Mom, isn’t there a price label here?”
At this point, intrigued, Gao Xiaohu rummaged through the gift bag, pulled out the tea’s collector’s certificate and invoice, and exclaimed, “Whoa, one cake is a hundred sixty-six thousand!”
“How much?”
Wang Hongying disregarded her son’s profanity, took the invoice from Gao Xiaohu’s hand, and looked carefully, and indeed…
The price of these two cakes together exceeded three hundred thirty thousand…
And to prove it wasn’t fake, there were also the collector’s certificates issued by the Pu’er Tea Industry Association!
“Hongying, did you agree to help Jiang Mo’s father with the second trial?”
Such an expensive gift made Gao Zhenbang instinctively think of this possibility, he asked with some gravity.
“No, I made it quite clear to Jiang Mo that this case is difficult…”
Wang Hongying was a bit puzzled herself, then smiled wryly, “They mentioned buying the tea conveniently from a tobacco and liquor store, so I accepted it. I didn’t expect it to be this expensive, Jiang Mo, that child, already sent me skincare products worth thousands last time for my birthday, and now this…”
“Oh, there’s something else inside!”
