Once Upon A One Night Stand novel Chapter 296

With Meng Shichuan's help, Shu Tian established her own law firm in a bustling street in the capital of B Country, where many legal practitioners worked on. She knew the fierce competition among her peers, but she was confident in herself.

Working as an employee was completely different from setting up own business. Shu Tian had invested almost all her savings into the law firm. Meng Shichuan knew she was short of money so he intended to help her, but Shu Tian rejected his financial support.

"I can do it myself. I'll ask you for help if I can't."

Seeing her resolute attitude, Meng Shichuan gave up.

Shu Xiao attended a very good local nursery. Among groups of blonde-hair and blue-eyed babies, Shu Xiao, the little boy with black hair and black eyes quickly became the focus.

Luckily, other kids had been well-cultivated, so no one discriminated against him.

Shu Tian had been through a lot of pain and devoted herself to her career. Fortunately, her law firm survived the most difficult time.

She put much effort into her work, wishing she could have 48 hours one day. However, the cases she had were all not major. The situation significantly improved after one day she received a debt dispute case from a big company.

She devoted herself to that lawsuit, and she successfully won it and built a reputation. After that, more and more big companies sought legal support from her.

In the blink of an eye, another year and a half passed. In her fifth year in B Country, her law firm became the local leader.

Her hair was getting shorter and shorter, and her clothes were getting plainer. She had her first luxury handbag and first car...

She was invited to various academic forums. Shu Tian, a woman who was always smartly dressed and had impeccable manners, was like the Iron Lady.

She spent most of her time working, and she accompanied Shu Xiao when she was free. As for Meng Shichuan, he did not do anything out of line after he bared his heart, but it was this that made Shu Tian feel more and more guilty.

She seemed to have neglected that man.

Therefore, Shu Tian set aside Christmas day to accompany Xiao and Meng Shichuan. Early in the morning, she took Shu Xiao to the supermarket and bought a pile of ingredients. She intended to cook himself.

"Xiao, do you want Chinese or western food?" Shu Tian looked at the ingredients in the fridge and hesitated.

Shu Xiao answered without hesitation, "Chinese food!"

"Chinese food..." Shu Tian scanned the condiments she had but thought those condiments were not enough for good Chinese dishes.

She thought for a moment, and then suddenly a good idea came to her mind. "We can have hotpot!"

"Hotpot?" Shu Xiao had never eaten hotpot, so this word was a little unfamiliar to him.

Shu Tian explained with a smile, "Yes, hotpot. You haven't tried it before, but I will make it for you today."

"Good!" The little boy was thrilled and ran about.

It was easy to prepare hotpot, but there were so many vegetables waiting to be washed. Besides, Shu Tian also prepared a roast turkey.

The atmosphere was pleasant. Meng Shichuan spoke less during dinner, and Shu Tian who thought about her business, reported to him about her next plan, "By the way, I plan to move the company to the adjoining street next month. We passed by there before. Do you remember?"

"Yes."

"My team is developing faster, and I need to recruit professionals, but the current office is too small. Although the rent will be a little expensive, I have to move." Shu Tian was a little worried because the rents were so high.

"Your cases can be organized in different categories, and make different charges. No matter how long the company is established, if you want to further develop it, you have moved to somewhere better." Meng Shichuan proposed pertinent suggestions, encouraging her.

Shu Tian nodded. "Yes."

The two of them chatted for a while. Shu Tian looked at Shu Xiao beside them. "Xiao, do you have any wishes for the new year?"

She wanted to spend more time with him when she was free these days.

Shu Xiao stuffed a big mouthful of meat into his mouth and tilted his head, thinking about it carefully. His big watery eyes blinked. His gaze wandered between Shu Tian and Meng Shichuan. Suddenly, he thought of something. He waved his chopsticks excitedly and replied, "Yes! I hope uncle and mom will be together forever!"

Children said what they liked, but Xiao's childish words meant a lot to Meng Shichuan.

Shu Tian subconsciously looked at the man opposite her, meeting his burning gaze. The hot atmosphere made her blush.

The little boy seemed to sense the strange atmosphere, looking up at his mom pitifully and asked, "Mom, will you leave uncle?"
