Zhuang Shurong shook her head.

“I rarely go out for recreation. Usually, even when I have a break, I mostly go to the library or the welfare institute.”

Her life was not monotonous. On the contrary, she felt that she was very busy. Sometimes, she wished that a day could be used across a few days, so she naturally did not have the time to enjoy herself.

“In that case, in comparison, I seem to be neglecting my work.”

Mu Tangchuan smiled helplessly.

“I don’t mean that. It’s just that everyone has their own way of entertainment. As long as it doesn’t harm society or others, it doesn’t matter. As you said, not everyone will be a saint, as long as one doesn’t create trouble for others, I think they would be good citizens.”

“Is your awareness too high? Or is this the personality of a judge?”

Seeing the smile on Mu Tangchuan’s face, Zhuang Shurong’s beautiful face softened a little. She quietly glanced at him and chuckled, “I’m only representing myself. I can’t represent their real judges. Your question always makes me suspect that you have some prejudice against us.”

“I wouldn’t dare.”

Mu Tangchuan’s answer was very direct.

“You wouldn’t dare but that doesn’t mean you’re not thinking about it.”

Zhuang Shurong sighed softly. “Actually, sometimes I wish I could do that. At least, at that time, I don’t have to worry about making a choice.”

“But, your gavel represents fairness and justice. You guys are the ones who need to make the right choice most often because your judgment will affect the situation of the parties involved, and even the future.”

Mu Tangchuan’s tone was a little low as he spoke.

“Yes, that’s why it’s not easy for us.”

Zhuang Shurong said plainly, “Do you know why I chose the court in the first place?”

“Why?”

Mu Tangchuan played along and asked.

“Because I have always believed that there is the light of justice in this world. Under the situation where the law is constantly improving, some people will still take advantage of the loopholes in the law.”

“But, with just you alone…”

“I’ll do my best, and live in good conscience,” Zhuang Shurong answered without hesitation.

When Mu Tangchuan turned to look at her, what he saw was her determined gaze and the slightly clenched fist hidden under the bouquet.

Later, Mu Tangchuan spent a long time to recall, so he realized that perhaps from this moment on, he could feel that Zhuang Shurong was different from the rest. Facing such a Zhuang Shurong, how could he hold on to his heart?

“Good judge of the people.”

Mu Tangchuan narrowed his eyes at her and smiled.

“Are you going to mock me too or what?”

Zhuang Shurong laughed softly.

“I don’t find amusement in that,” Mu Tangchuan replied with a serious expression.

“That’s my petty heart measuring the stomach of a gentleman.”

“Is it that serious?”

Mu Tangchuan laughed softly.

Zhuang Shurong also laughed quietly at this moment.

…

The two of them arrived at the restaurant and had a harmonious dinner. After resting for a while, they went straight to the concert venue.

The so-called concert was actually a relatively large-scale piano concert for international piano masters.

Zhuang Shurong still had some pursuits towards music. She liked to listen to some more soothing piano music, so she did not want to miss such a concert.

Reality proved that the two of them had come to the right place today.

It was the first time Mu Tangchuan was listening to such a concert. He had always thought that it would be boring, but now it sounded pretty good. Perhaps he had been infected by the woman beside him.

Thinking of this, Mu Tangchuan turned his head and quietly looked at Zhuang Shurong beside him. Only then did he realize that she was gently closing her eyes. Her expression was very peaceful and she was in a trance.

At this moment, the night breeze was a little cold. Seeing that her clothes were thin, Mu Tangchuan also very gentlemanly took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.

The sudden faint warmth caused Zhuang Shurong to be startled. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at him very quietly. She then looked at the black coat on her shoulders. A moment later, she smiled at him.

“The night is still a little chilly, be careful not to catch a cold.”

Mu Tangchuan lowered his voice and reminded her.

“Thank you, Gentleman.” Zhuang Shurong thanked him politely.

“You’re welcome,” Mu Tangchuan replied as well.

He realized now that after interacting with her a few times, he felt that he was not so restrained when talking to her. He was not like other women who were impatient when talking to them. He was not even willing to pay attention to them.

The concert was undoubtedly very successful. Zhuang Shurong was clearly in a good mood. When she walked out of the venue, her face was still slightly beaming.

“Thank you so much for today. I’ve actually been looking forward to this concert for a long time. I was too busy recently, so I shelved it. I thought it would be a regret, but I didn’t expect you to help me make up for this regret.”

Mu Tangchuan’s expression was calm. He pointed at the coat on her shoulder. Zhuang Shurong subconsciously looked at the direction of his fingertips. Only then did she realize that the coat on her shoulder had slipped quite a bit. She quickly reached out to pull it.

“It’s good that you’re happy. It’s getting late. Let me send you back.”

Mu Tangchuan took out the car keys from his pocket and walked to the car parked on the side of the road.

Zhuang Shurong nodded. “Okay.”

She got into the car as well.

It was already a little late at night. Mu Tangchuan looked at the time on his wrist. It was already past 10 p.m. When he looked at Zhuang Shurong beside him, he realized that she was leaning back in her chair and looking out of the car window quietly. Her expression was very quiet.

“What are you thinking about?”

After a while, Mu Tangchuan asked in a low voice.

Zhuang Shurong slowly turned her head to look at him. After a moment of silence, she replied, “I’m thinking about us.”

“Us?”

Mu Tangchuan was a little surprised by her directness. At this moment, he looked at her meaningfully. “What are you thinking about us for?”

“I can’t tell either. I feel that you’re spending so much time with me. Do you have some ulterior motive?” Zhuang Shurong replied.

Upon hearing this, Mu Tangchuan laughed softly. There was a warmth in his smile. “I think that Miss Zhuang’s EQ and IQ are very high, and the strength in your words is shocking.”

“It feels like you’re critiquing me?”

Zhuang Shurong raised her eyebrows.

However, Mu Tangchuan laughed even louder and did not answer her question. Instead, he went along with what she just said. “I have ulterior motives to begin with. Don’t tell me that you don’t know what it means for us now.”

Zhuang Shurong looked at him deeply from behind. She lowered her eyes after a long while…

“Go back and rest early. I’ll pick you up at eight tomorrow morning.”

In front of the villa, Mu Tangchuan stopped the car steadily and turned to look at Zhuang Shurong.

“Okay, drive carefully.”

Zhuang Shurong got out of the car after saying that.
