“Do your job well. After this lawsuit is over, you should be able to make a name for yourself in the legal profession,” said Lin Bai.

Huo Yanhui replied, “I’ll definitely do my best!”

That was because Huo Yanhui thought the same.

Shen Wanqing had been committing crimes for so many years, but he had never been punished. It was obvious that someone was protecting him from behind.

If it was in the past, Huo Yanhui might not have had the confidence to resist that backer Shen Wanqing had.

However, it was different now. The country had announced that they would launch a special campaign to eradicate crime. This meant that Shen Wanqing and the backers behind him would be targeted for elimination.

Under such circumstances, no one would be able to protect Shen Wanqing.

Therefore, he could use this time to settle old scores and sanction him for the evil deeds he had committed in the past. It would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

Taking advantage of this situation, it would be difficult for Huo Yanhui not to win the lawsuit.

When he won the lawsuit, he would be able to establish himself as someone who was not afraid of evil forces and stood up for the victims of poverty.

When that time came, he would have both fame and fortune. He would no longer have to worry about a lack of leads again.

Huo Yanhui had been longing for this day and night. This was the kind of opportunity that he was looking forward to.

Now that the opportunity had come to him, how could he reject it?

After making all the arrangements, Lin Bai began to focus on thinking about how to get the money next.

After all, he had already promised Wang Huaigu that if he could not settle Shen Wanqing in a week’s time, he would return the transfer fee of 1.8 billion to him.

However, based on the current situation, there was a high probability that Shen Wanqing would not dare to continue making trouble.

However, nothing was absolute. In order to be on the safe side, it was better to be prepared.

Otherwise, if he needed a refund and could not come up with the money, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?

At this moment, the Future News app notification popped up again.

This time, the news was released three days later. The headline was:

[One stroke of fortune! A young man in Ji province made 30 billion from stone speculation!]

Lin Bai’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this title. He couldn’t help but laugh. “He really knows that I’m short of money, so he sent money here!”

“This Future News app is really a treasure!”

As he said that, Lin Bai clicked on the news and read it carefully.

The general content of the news was a small business owner who wanted to try stone speculation when he was traveling in Yun Province.

After going around the raw stone market, he found a huge raw stone.

The price of the stone was 300 million yuan. It had been in the raw stone market for a long time but no one had paid attention to it.

Some of his friends who were traveling with him knew a little about it and tried to persuade him not to buy it, saying that he would definitely lose money if he bought it.

However, the young man just liked the raw stone. He felt that it was fated with him and insisted on buying it.

In the end, his friend could not stop the young man. He bought the raw stone that was not favored by all the experts at the price of 300 million.

In the end, after the raw stone was cut open, it turned out to be a top-grade imperial jade.

Someone offered 30 billion on the spot and bought it.

In less than an hour, the young man turned 300 million into 30 billion and became a billionaire.

At the end of the news, there were two pictures. One was a picture of the raw stone before it was cut. It looked gray and ordinary.

Lin Bai looked at it from the perspective of an ordinary person. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was an ordinary stone.

He could not tell that there was jade in it. Moreover, it was such a top-grade imperial jade.

However, there were so many experts in the raw stone market, but they could not see the potential of the raw stone. As an ordinary person who did not understand jade, it was normal that Lin Bai could not see it.

The second photo was of the raw stone after it was cut open.

It was a clear green color, without a trace of impurities, or any cracks or flaws.

Such a quality could be said to be the best of the best.

If the young man who bought the raw stone had the ability to process the raw stone into a finished product, then the final profit would definitely be more than 30 billion.

However, it was a pity that he had never come into contact with jade before. He did not have any connections or means to process the raw stone.

That was why he chose to sell the raw stone that he had cut. He sacrificed some benefits, but at the same time, he saved a lot of trouble. Moreover, he could get the funds as quickly as possible.

Overall, his choice was actually very wise. It was also the most suitable choice for ordinary people.

After Lin Bai finished watching the news, he directly booked a plane ticket to Feiyun province for the next day.

By leaving a day earlier, he would have more time to familiarize himself with the environment and avoid unexpected accidents, which would make it impossible for him to buy the raw stone before the young man in the news did.

He was meticulous and careful. He planned ahead and tried his best to avoid all possible bad consequences before anything happened.

This was Lin Bai’s usual style of doing things.

After booking the plane ticket, Lin Bai checked the class schedule and found that the teachers paid great attention to attendance during the two days after the New Year. They had to mark attendance for almost every class.

This also meant that Lin Bai had to apply for leave from the counselor.

Otherwise, if he was not present during the class call, he would be treated as absent from class and his usual grades would be deducted.

If he was unlucky and the teacher was in a bad mood, he might fail his final grade.

Lin Bai did not want to fail.

Hence, he could only bite the bullet and call the instructor, Zhang Yi, to apply for leave.

“Mr. Zhang, I need to apply for leave tomorrow and the next two days. I have something at home,” Lin Bai said straightforwardly.

The instructor, Zhang Yi, sneered and said directly, “I won’t approve this leave. It’s up to you.”

Lin Bai had actually guessed that Zhang Yi would reject his request before he made the call.

However, he still had a glimmer of hope that the instructor, Zhang Yi, wouldn’t be so petty.

After all, he had never offended him before. Moreover, although their previous relationship couldn’t be considered very good, it was definitely not strained.

Lin Bai really couldn’t understand why Zhang Yi would suddenly start targeting him.

He simply asked straightforwardly, “Sir, I don’t think I’ve offended you before, right?”

Zhang Yi sneered and said, “I never said that you’ve offended me.”

“Then why are you targeting me like this?”Lin Bai asked.

Zhang Yi denied flatly, “When have I ever targeted you? Now is the critical period of learning. I won’t approve of your request without a valid reason. This isn’t about you alone. It’s about treating everyone equally.”

“Even if it were someone else who came to ask for leave from me, I wouldn’t grant it either.”

Coincidentally, someone knocked on the door and entered the office.

Zhang Yi was silent for a few seconds before saying, “You’re asking for leave, right? Alright, I’ve signed the leave slip for you. Go ahead.”

It was unknown whether he meant it or not, but when he said this, he had no intention of avoiding Lin Bai.

Lin Bai heard every word clearly on the other end of the phone.
