“Wow, is he really that incredible?” whispered Xiao Xu, a college student sitting behind Mosheng.

Editor Huang, sitting beside him, chuckled and replied, “You must be feeling jealous. But there’s no point. People like him probably make in an hour what we earn in a month. I have a friend in the legal field who said this lawyer earned a huge commission on just one case.” He raised two fingers.

“Twenty thousand?” Xiao Xu guessed.Editor Huang shook his head.

“Two hundred thousand?”He laughed. “Multiply that by ten.”

Xiao Xu gasped and went quiet.

The topic for the magazine column had already been decided. Now the question was: who would take charge of it? The editor-in-chief looked around and asked, “Who wants to lead this new feature?”

The room fell silent. Everyone was interested but hesitant.

“I’ll do it.”

The voice came from Tao Yijing, a famously aloof beauty at the magazine. She stood up confidently and said, “Editor-in-chief, I’d like to take on this special feature. I’ve nearly finished my current tasks and can dedicate myself to it. Also, I graduated from C University, just like Lawyer He Yichen and Architect Kang Jianian. We may share some common ground. I’ve even met Lawyer He Yichen once before…”

Mo Sheng looked up and noticed a rare blush on Tao Yijing’s usually cold face. For a moment, she was distracted, and a wave of jealousy hit her.

“Is graduating from C University really that special?” Sister Mei, who never got along with Tao Yijing, said sarcastically. She turned to Xiao Hong, trying to stir things up. “Xiao Hong, why don’t you take this? Why let her hog all the attention?”

Tao Yijing’s distant attitude and popularity made her unpopular among colleagues, who often excluded her. Mo Sheng and Xiao Hong usually stayed out of it. Xiao Hong replied with a playful excuse, “No way, if I do this, my boyfriend will think I’m cheating on him.” She looked at the photo of the handsome lawyer. “Hey, why does he look familiar? Mosheng, doesn’t he look familiar to you too?”

Mo Sheng forced a smile. “You think every handsome guy looks familiar.”

While they were talking, the editor-in-chief announced, “Yijing, you’ll handle this project. I trust you’ll do a great job. Haha, maybe this is what they call a beauty trap.”

The room laughed, and a male colleague joked, “If Miss Tao manages to win over the lawyer, maybe we can save on legal fees!”

Then the editor-in-chief turned to Mo Sheng. “A Sheng… A Sheng?”

“Yes?”

“The photography part for this feature is quite simple. Please make time to assist Yijing as much as you can.”

Mo Sheng hesitated, unable to come up with an excuse, so she nodded reluctantly. She planned to ask Lao Bai later if he could take her place.

After all… she probably wasn’t ready to face him again.
