Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 563 - 437: I Can’t Admit to Any of Them (Part 1)

Chapter 563: Chapter 437: I Can’t Admit to Any of Them (Part 1)

Xu Cong was taken aback by Yin Shixiu’s matter-of-fact tone.

It’s true that there are national laws and family rules, but once a party seeks out a lawyer and intends to file for divorce through the court, any family rules that conflict with national law have no standing.

The result is...

Su Xiaomeng glanced at Yin Shixiu. If the three of them discussed this issue at the hotel entrance and someone overheard, well, that would stir things up.

Yin Shixiu is quite skillful with his words.

After sharing a bed for several years, how could she not know?

She didn’t continue to tangle with him at the door and directly said to Lawyer Xu,

"Lawyer Xu, let’s go inside and talk."

"Oh, okay."

Xu Cong responded, but before he could take a step, Yin Shixiu took advantage of the moment, stepping ahead of Xu Cong.

Xu Cong had actually taken a step forward, but was squeezed back by Yin Shixiu’s presence. He quickly retracted, looked up, and met Yin Shixiu’s still smiling face...

"Mr. Yin, please go ahead!"

Xu Cong isn’t someone who doesn’t understand the situation.

Before him stood the president of the Yin Group, a person who could crush him with just a finger.

This, he was fully aware of!

Victory Law Firm is a joint Chinese-British firm, well-regarded throughout the United Kingdom.

And Xu Cong’s reputation is quite known within the British Chinese community.

Meticulous, proper, reliable.

These are the evaluations given to Xu Cong by people in the circle.

Su Xiaomeng found Xu Cong after much inquiry.

She wanted exactly such a lawyer. Even after reaching the point of divorce, Su Xiaomeng didn’t want to make a big scene.

The divorce case of the president of the Yin Group...

If it really gets contentious, the media would probably relish it.

She didn’t want it to reach such an ugly situation. After finding Xu Cong, she explained all the circumstances clearly and obtained Xu Cong’s promise that he wouldn’t disclose any privacy concerns regarding her and Yin Shixiu.

Xu Cong is just in his early thirties, similar in age to Yin Shixiu, and can be considered a bright young talent.

The divorce cases he handles have a win rate of over ninety percent.

Regarding the divorce case of Yin Shixiu, the president of the Yin Group... When Su Xiaomeng approached him, he didn’t lack hesitation.

However, after seeing Su Xiaomeng’s demands, he didn’t hesitate any longer.

Su Xiaomeng saw that Xu Cong hadn’t caught up, but Yin Shixiu had come to her side instead. Her brows furrowed, but she didn’t say anything.

It’s just as well he came.

No need for her to go looking for him.

Currently, Claire is watching over Shuangshuang and Huang Huang in the room, and Su Xiaomeng is not foolish enough to bring these two into the room for discussion.

They went to the hotel cafe and entered a private room.

Su Xiaomeng sat, and without a word, Yin Shixiu planned to sit right next to her!

"What are you doing?"

"Doing what?"

"Sit over there!"

Su Xiaomeng frowned, pointing at the sofa opposite.

Yin Shixiu smiled and then sat down,

"Let’s have Lawyer Xu sit over there instead."

Su Xiaomeng clearly wasn’t having it, but Xu Cong already sat down, saying pleasantly,

"It’s all the same where we sit."

Su Xiaomeng pursed her lips, and her temper rose sharply!

The waiter came over, and the three of them each ordered a cup of coffee.

Su Xiaomeng folded her arms, uninterested in the beautifully garnished coffee in front of her.

Yin Shixiu crossed his legs, seemingly carefree, while Xu Cong glanced at Su Xiaomeng, then at Yin Shixiu...

Honestly, if Su Xiaomeng hadn’t told Xu Cong that the main reason for the divorce was the husband’s infidelity...

From Xu Cong’s perspective at this moment, the couple just seemed like they were arguing and having a small tiff.

The two people before him didn’t seem inclined to speak, so Xu Cong had to take the initiative from his position as a lawyer...

"Mr. Yin, earlier you expressed that you disagreed with the divorce. Did I understand that correctly?"

"Yes, you understood perfectly."

"Haha."

Xu Cong chuckled, then continued, "Well, Mr. Yin, I don’t know what the Yin Family’s rules are, but according to our country’s laws, if either party in a marriage is unfaithful, the other party has the right to file a lawsuit."

"Yes, so?"

Yin Shixiu continued to look calmly at Xu Cong.

For a moment, Xu Cong didn’t know how to respond. So?

Your wife has legitimate grounds to file for divorce! You’re screwed!

Xu Cong appeared calm on the outside, but internally he was already a bit speechless.

While he hadn’t interacted with such a significant figure before, the president of the Yin Group surely couldn’t be a legal ignoramus, right?

Referring to family rules just now... Oh my, could he still be some kind of feudal doctrinaire?

Although Xu Cong thought the possibility was slim, considering its potential existed made him feel mixed emotions.

If Yin Shixiu truly didn’t understand the law, the lawsuit, frankly speaking, would be much easier.

But on the other hand, the fear was that he might just make unreasonable trouble because of his ignorance. As a lawyer, Xu Cong has seen many problematic clients who make unreasonable demands.

Those are harder to deal with than the opposite lawyer.

"So your wife filing against you carries almost no possibility of a loss."

"Oh?"

Yin Shixiu raised an eyebrow and lightly asked,

"Do you have evidence of my infidelity?"

"..."

Uh...

Xu Cong’s surface remained composed, but inside, there was a "thud." One moment he thought the other was legally ignorant, and the next, the man struck right at the heart of the matter in one sentence.

Today, he and Su Xiaomeng were precisely going to discuss this issue of gathering evidence.

According to Su Xiaomeng, obtaining evidence wouldn’t be difficult. All that was needed was to get the hotel record from the night Yin Shixiu and the third party checked in, and then ideally retrieve the surveillance footage of the two entering and exiting the hotel.

After that, they’d need the third party’s pregnancy test results and the third party’s testimony.

However, these were just considerations Xu Cong had in mind; he hadn’t yet had the chance to acquire the evidence.

Now, when Yin Shixiu asked, naturally, he wouldn’t say he hadn’t obtained the evidence. With Yin Shixiu’s capabilities, destroying every piece of evidence before they could get to it would be a breeze.

"We’ll have it."

The lawyer’s concerns were clear to Su Xiaomeng, but with things reaching this point, there was little point in playing mind games over this matter.

So, without any cover-up, she directly stated.

"We won’t."

As soon as Su Xiaomeng finished, Yin Shixiu immediately followed with, "And it never will."

"..."

Xu Cong wondered if this man had already destroyed all the evidence?

Su Xiaomeng turned to look at Yin Shixiu,

"Do you think just because there’s no evidence of your infidelity, I can’t divorce you?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Even if you did, you still couldn’t divorce me, Meng Meng. A family has its rules, and without a family, there can be no country."

Su Xiaomeng let out a light laugh,

"Do you intend to bind me with family rules?"

"If nothing else works, why not try family rules?"

Yin Shixiu’s expression continued to provoke Su Xiaomeng immensely!

"Ha, has President Yin become so forgetful? That night, you already agreed to the divorce."

Su Xiaomeng’s expression looked extremely cold, a look that didn’t suit someone with such a sweet and cute appearance...

When Yin Shixiu saw it... it hurt inside.

He understood better than anyone that Su Xiaomeng’s expression was one filled with unspeakable pain...

"When? I didn’t say that. Xiao Meng, you must be mistaken, right?"

"Yin Shixiu! Are you even a man?"

Yin Shixiu responded calmly to Su Xiaomeng’s angry question.

"I am."

"..."
