Gu Chen's law firm hadn't officially started recruiting yet.

Upon waking up in the morning, Gu Chen saw a beautiful girl in her twenties at the law firm's entrance. She was 168 cm tall, very attractive, had a great figure, and wore a white dress that showed her slender calves, holding some documents in her hand.

A Peking University Law graduate!

Xue Qingqing's father is the chief judge in the Capital City, and her mother is an elite lawyer working in the courts.

Her grandfather, Xue Yaoting, founded Fangda Law Firm, a nationally renowned top-tier Red Circle Law Firm!

Red Circle Law Firm gathers many top lawyers across the country and is famous nationwide!

Xue Qingqing could have interned at Fangda Law Firm... after her internship, she could officially become a professional lawyer.

However, Xue Qingqing gave up the opportunity to intern at Fangda Law Firm and came to Gu Chen's firm instead.

This is why Gao Yong was so surprised.

No matter how strong Gu Chen's litigation ability is, his firm is very small compared to a national top firm like Fangda Law Firm.

Fangda Law Firm has countless top lawyers, and Xue Qingqing could have learned a lot from them, but she chose to come to Gu Chen's place.

Xue Qingqing slightly bent forward, extended her hand proactively, and smiled gently, "Hello, Lawyer Gu."

Gu Chen shook hands and said, "Hello, and you are? I'm not taking any cases these days."

Xue Qingqing shook her head, "Lawyer Gu, I'm not here to seek litigation services from you. I am Xue Qingqing, a Peking University Law graduate. I want to become an intern lawyer and learn from outstanding lawyers. I've watched three of the lawsuits you handled and admire that our country has such remarkable lawyers."

"I learned that you started a law firm, so I came here. I want to be an intern lawyer and learn from you. I don't need a salary, as long as you allow me to learn from you."

Xue Qingqing wasn't interested in the salary; she just wanted to learn from Gu Chen.

Gu Chen glanced at Xue Qingqing.

Xue Qingqing looked about twenty, had great skin, and was very pretty. It was unexpected that she had already graduated from a graduate program at Peking University Law.

Just graduating from this school indicates that Xue Qingqing's legal knowledge and skills are very strong.

Gu Chen smiled and said, "Learn from me? You are an excellent law graduate, and my firm just started, so you might not learn much, and it could be exhausting to follow me around. I frequently handle lawsuits and can't offer a high salary. Have you really thought this through?"

Xue Qingqing nodded, "Lawyer Gu, I don't want a salary. I just want to learn from you. I am not afraid of hardship or exhaustion. Tell me what to do, and I will do it. I can rent a place nearby and be punctual at work!"

Gu Chen said, "Alright, then you can follow me. But our firm has just been established, and there are many tasks to do. The company needs to recruit people, handle front-desk reception, and each time I handle a case, you must help organize materials. I'll first give you an employment contract to sign."

Even though Xue Qingqing said she didn't want any salary, Gu Chen wouldn't actually give her nothing.

After all, he was planning to grow the firm, and Xue Qingqing's personal business capabilities were undoubtedly strong.

Gu Chen gave Xue Qingqing some tasks and then went to work.

Seeing so many tasks, Xue Qingqing felt overwhelmed.

Had she been at Fangda Law Firm, she wouldn't have needed to do much personally; she could just listen while other lawyers worked.

But here, Xue Qingqing had to handle many things herself.

She had no complaints, feeling she could manage these tasks well!

No matter how hard or tiring the work was, she felt she could endure it!

Xue Qingqing looked at the contract...

She noticed the contract stated a four-day workweek with three days off, and overtime would be compensated!

Additionally, the pay offered by Gu Chen was quite good, over ten thousand yuan a month!

And this on her first day as an intern with such a high salary?

Moreover, the company's benefits were great....

Such good welfare and treatment!

This was Gu Chen's law firm?

It wasn't like any other law firm in the industry.

Elsewhere, there's a trend of excessive work; who talks about overtime pay?

But here at Gu Chen's, it's four days on, three days off!

And with such high compensation!

If she could become full-time there, the salary would be even higher!

Even though Xue Qingqing wasn't concerned about the money, the benefits offered by Gu Chen were indeed too good!

Xue Qingqing signed the employment contract, making her Gu Chen's assistant with a range of tasks.

Gu Chen said, "Your current task is to follow up on Zhao Lele's case, wrap up the second trial, and assist in the hiring process. Our company needs people, so you'll help organize the interview process. We also need financial staff, and we still have many projects outside. There are many positions to be filled."

Xue Qingqing nodded.

Gu Chen added, "In the beginning, there are many trivial tasks; once we hire enough people, you won't have to do these. Just follow me on each case, and once you learn enough, you can handle lawsuits on your own."

Xue Qingqing: "!!!"

Xue Qingqing: "I just want to learn how to handle lawsuits from you, boss."

Xue Qingqing's address for Gu Chen immediately changed to "boss."

Gu Chen smiled, "Alright, then. Let's get to it."

The recruitment for the law firm began, and various tasks were initiated.

Xue Qingqing asked: "Boss, wait a second, isn't it rare for companies to have a four-day workweek with three days off? Wouldn't this cause losses? I see many bosses expecting employees to work overtime."

Gu Chen said: "The legal industry differs from others. Sometimes we're very busy. Once tasks are done, why stay at the office without work? Working four days to rest three is about maximizing efficiency—rest well when you can and work hard when you need to."

"It's not the hours that boost a company's performance. Does that make sense? Plus, we aren't short on money right now, so let's go all out!"

Gu Chen initially decided to offer great benefits to avoid being the typical exploitative boss.

He wasn't trying to run a small, workshop-like firm...

His goal from the start was to develop the firm into a top-tier law firm nationally!!
