While drawing emoticons of the defendant in the court gallery, I caught the death stare of my blind date, Lu Chenzhou.
"Miss Su, your sketchbook is more exciting than my defense statement." He handed over the business card with a cold face.
Three months later we had a flash marriage - he needed to stop the family members who were urging us to get married, and I needed to be married to keep my teacher's apartment.
Until he came home drunk late at night, loosened his tie and pressed me against the divorce agreement: "Teach me... How to draw a turtle on Party A's face?"
I smiled and pulled out the report on the first case he lost: "Lawyer Lu, first explain why you cried in court that year?"
The next day he appeared outside my classroom in a suit and tie, holding a sign that read "Protest against Teacher Su's cold violence."
With all the teachers and students in the school watching, he took out the new agreement: "The terms have been changed. It says here, 'You must kiss me three times a day.'"
Reader comments
The author's writing is very good and the story is gripping. I read it in one sitting.
