Ling Yue surveyed her new room. The gray painted room looks elegant, with a set wooden furniture inside. The room was not as big as the room she used there. It smaller but comfortable. A computer already perched on its desk. Ling Yue turned her gaze to the thick file before her. It contains a case where a woman in her mid-forty refused and sued a well-known company, King Empire, for polluting the environment around her residence. One of the King Empire factory dumps damaged their farmland. King Empire's lawyers demanded that the woman used company land for personal permission. Ling Yue let out a sigh. 'It will not be easy'.

Someone knocked on the door. Ling Yue looked up and a girl, round her age, emerged from behind the door.

"Miss Ling. It's lunch time. Do you want to go to the cafeteria with me?"

Ling Yue glanced at her desk clock. She did not realize it was lunch time. She was so absorbed in studying every detail of this case. Ling Yue closed the file in front of her and then stood up. "It's my pleasure."

They went down using elevator. The cafeteria Chu Wei talked was on the very ground floor of this building. When they stepped inside, there was a lot people already. All lawyers, paralegals, assistants and staff gathered to have lunch there. It foods wasn't too bad. Thank God Ling Yue was not a picky person. She would eat it as long as it can fill her stomach.

"I heard you came from another country. It's that true?" Chu Wei asked right after they found place to sit.

Ling Yue nodded. "I stayed there for a few years."

Some people who passed her gave a weird look. "There is something on my face?" she asked innocently while pushed up her glasses.

"Don't bothered it. Maybe they are curious because there's a new face here. After all, who wouldn't want to know someone who dared to take the King Empire case?"

"That's right. Me too. I want to know who take the 'Athena's role' bravely." A man in white shirt sat beside Chu Wei. He stared at Ling Yue, curious.

Ling Yue looked back, confused with what these new co-worker's talk.

"The case that Du Zhuang handed to you was an old case. No one wants to handle it. But the company also couldn't refuse because the woman paid a large sum of money. Besides that, her background was not an ordinary person. Du Zhuang tried to solve it but the King Empire's lawyers demanded back and put Du zhuang in a difficult position. They called it 'suicide' cased."

"Is this King Empire really scary?" Ling Yue asked again.

"The company wasn't scary, but the person sitting in the back was terrible. He was ruthless and cruel. Anyone who blocked their way will be destroyed without mercy. The company was normal before, after the company was in the hands of its rightful heir, King Empire advanced and developed rapidly. No one dared to offend or deal with the law with them." the man said it seriously. "Oh by the way, I'm Chen Liang."

Ling Yue straightened up. "Hello, sir. I'm Ling Yue." she stretched out her hand. Who would have thought this man in front of her was none other of Du Zhuang's partner and founders of DuChen Law Firm.

Chen Liang smiled widened. "So you know about me." a little bit proud could be heard in his voice.

"I did know your name, but not your face," Ling Yue felt a little guilty. "There was no photo of yours at company profile."

Chen Liang grumbled. "I think I should visit Fei Yan after this."

Ling Yue smiled slighty. The head public department would get into trouble.

-----

The next day Chen Liang offered a ride to her first client's home, which Ling Yue had gladly accepted.

"Do you think you can make that old lady withdraw her demands on the King Empire?" He glanced briefly and continued his focus on the streets. Ling Yue who enjoyed the beautiful scenery at the moment stared blankly.

"Huh? I don't know. I just want to see the location in that case," she replied.

"How long have you lived abroad?" Chen Liang changed the subject suddenly.

"Seven years." Ling Yue answered automatically.

"I saw your file. You really have a brilliant career there. I'm really honored to have a competent people in a company like you."

"Don't flattering me so much. I don't want you feel very disappointed if one day I did something wrong." her brows furrowed. "You two think too highly of me."

"We'll see then," Chen Liang laughed.

They arrived at the end of the village, stopping in front of the only luxury house there. Ling Yue got out of the car and was ready to say goodbye, unexpectedly, Chen Liang came down.

"I have nothing to do after this. So I'd better accompany you." he explained when he saw the question mark in Ling Yue's eyes.
