The rain fell harder and harder, and the tea tasted less and less delicious.
I stared out the window in fascination at the sky that seemed to be weighed down by clouds. After a few minutes of silence, I put down the teacup, stood up and said, "I'm back."
Lin Zhi was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, "Return now? You have no other questions to ask?" I could tell that his reaction was subconscious, because I was confident that the feeling I left him was not easy to talk about. Maybe , and a little cunning.
"Yes," I said coldly, "but I didn't expect you to know the answer. Why did you ask? To trouble yourself?"
Lin Zhi smiled and said, "Again?"
"When you are surprised that I replied right now, it has been proven that you know and guessed what other questions I might want to ask you. Why do I need to provoke you?" I sighed and said, "This is a matter between adults. Things, even if an underage girl from the East knew, how much could she understand? She came but didn¡¯t stay to meet me. She was afraid that I would ask something and didn¡¯t want to answer me. How could I still not know it in my heart "
I paused, looked at Lin Zhi, and said: "Who is the third lady's name, and what is Ran Yibai's background? These two questions are the simplest, but they are also what I want to know the most, but you must have been told not to tell Damn it, did I guess wrong?"
A flash of astonishment flashed in Lin Zhi¡¯s eyes, as if he didn¡¯t understand why I was most curious about these two trivial questions. He didn¡¯t answer me for a long time.
"What? Did I guess wrong?"
"No" Lin Zhi came back to his senses and said with a strange expression: "I have indeed been told that of these two women, one cannot tell you the name and the other cannot tell you the background, but to be honest, I am I really didn¡¯t expect it, and I really can¡¯t understand why the third lady insisted on these two little things. What¡¯s even more surprising is that it¡¯s these two little things that you want to know the most.¡±
"Little things?" I couldn't help laughing.
"Isn't it?" Lin Zhibai was puzzled. "With your relationship with the three young ladies, they can't hide it even if they want to. You will know sooner or later"
"The key is the word 'sooner or later'. There is a big difference between earlier and later." I was half disappointed and half self-deprecating, and said, "You also said that the reason why the third lady did not clarify the misnomer 'third lady' , I just don¡¯t want people to know the identity of the other 'Miss San' and the close relationship between them - I don't want to know the name because I'm afraid that I will expose these two names at the moment when she is in trouble and give her Looking for more trouble; she didn¡¯t let me know her background and strength because she was afraid that I would give her a big blackmail after watching her order the menu. Haha, the third lady probably regretted the cooperation project between Feng Chang and Moon Valley, so she shouldn¡¯t have named her. I hope I can become Feng Chang's negotiator. If I give her such a handle, will she not be afraid that I will take advantage of her? Then she is no longer the third lady."
Lin Zhi smiled and said: "You are not this kind of person"
"No, that's the kind of person I am," I said seriously, "Xiao Zi and Dongfang must have told her that I am a person without ambition but with backbone, and a person with backbone but without grace. Acting Director Lin, you Don't think that Chu, who is not afraid of Xu Heng's gun in Qianlong Manor, is a heroic hero. Don't secretly mock me for being silly and coaxing me to help Xu Heng at this moment. I think it is a romantic and heroic hero's sympathy. , Bullshit! Who is the hero? He is not worthy, and I am even less worthy. I am just for those two women. If the desperado wants my life, I will give it to him. If he wants me to kneel, I will kneel to him without hesitation, even if he asks me Calling grandpa and licking their toes at the same time, I think it¡¯s not impossible for me to do it. My old man taught me that being able to bend and stretch is a true hero, and one would rather die than surrender. A true hero is too high to be sincere, so being a man is enough. Come on, just do everything according to your own conscience. Just let others laugh and scold you, which means that thousands of people will criticize and spit on thousands of people. How can you spit on my hair? Besides, if you become a true hero, don¡¯t you need to provide a car, a house, and a wife? Are you honoring your mother-in-law? Life is already very tiring. I am not that great. I would rather live even more tiringly to set a good example. So I am me, an ordinary person who lives for myself and knows who I live for. Some people make me unhappy. Yes, if you can bear it, I will bear it, but if you can't bear it, then he + mother can't bear it - Miss Third plotted against me, I can bear it, but she used Xiaozi to plot against Xiaomeng, I can't bear it; Ran Yibai asked me to kneel down, I can bear it, But she forced Xiaoye to hurt and stripped my sister naked. I can't bear it! Is she a fake saint but really a villain? Haha, the third lady doesn't count me as scolding, because the bad breath in my chest really doesn't mean that a lover hugs the bed and throws the matchmaker over the wall. , just curse you + mother in the bridal chamber, and you can get out clean."
Lin Zhi was speechless, stunned for a long time, and sighed: "Miss Third understands you better."
Tianyou's face turned red, and he endured it again and again, and whispered: "I'm not your sister"
The tomboy said this, but followed me two steps closely, as if she was afraid that I would leave her alone.
Lin Zhi was about to see us off when he suddenly thought of something and stopped me and said, "Wait a minute, the tea set"?Tea. "
I looked back and said with a smile, "You can stay."
Lin Zhi smiled bitterly, "This set costs over one million yuan. Aren't you trying to impress me? Besides, this is given to you by Miss Dongfang. It has nothing to do with Miss Third. Aren't you letting down other girls?" Do you like it?"
"Have you not done enough things recently that attracted people's attention? Just like this one, right?" I teased a few words before saying: "If you don't dare to keep me, you can return it. Dongfang or the 'Miss San's' asked When you get up, just say, I have a tea set at home, the kind that won¡¯t hurt even if it breaks. I drank a few cups of tea at your place and it made me happy, but I was heartbroken, so I won¡¯t drink it again in the future.¡±
Lin Zhiwei said: "Isn't it bad to say that? It would hurt the little girl's heart"
"Little girl?" I smiled. I couldn't tell clearly. I was asking Lin Zhi or myself.
Lin Zhiyi smiled, stopped persuading, and didn¡¯t bother Officer Xiaomeng, but took us downstairs in person. Although he has become the director of the Municipal Bureau, considering the sensitive role I played in sensitive cases, this treatment is not too eye-catching.
Who in the Municipal Bureau doesn¡¯t know how Lin Zhi became the director? Who doesn't know how the predecessor Niu Ju who made room for him ended up?
"Xiao Chu, when will you make an appointment with Wang Meng for dinner, I can help you contact him."
I knew Lin Zhi was trying to make excuses, so I said angrily: "Invite him to dinner? It's a shame."
Lin Zhi was surprised and said, "Aren't you going to help the third lady?"
"Bureau Lin, how long have you known Wang Meng? Third Miss doesn't understand him, and you don't understand him either? Third Miss is an idiot, are you an idiot too?" I laughed angrily: "It's just Wang Erleng's stubborn temper, misunderstanding I want to pick up her daughter, but I'm afraid that I can't even explain it, so why would I want to eat with him? I will be beaten to death under the dining table by him! Thanks to her third lady, Wang Xiaomeng didn't give up on me for a day, and I couldn't help it. Jin must avoid her father, otherwise I will die a violent death without Sha Zhizhou taking action!"
It was an exaggeration, but it was definitely not alarmist. Lin Zhi only thought that Wang Meng would listen to his daughter, but he never thought about how he would react if someone picked up his daughter. This is no wonder. After all, Wang Xiaomeng seems to be wild on the surface, but in fact she is just a little bit independent. She may have many character flaws, but she knows how to keep herself clean. At least she has never really been in love, and these are probably not true. Only close relatives who truly understand her can see and trust her.
Lin Zhiruo thinks that Wang Xiaomeng has rich experience in love, but Wang Meng has long been accustomed to it. Isn't that a big mistake?
Hearing what I said, Lin Zhicai suddenly realized, and his face suddenly changed, "You mean this is self-defeating? Not only will Wang Meng not help, but he will also do the opposite?!"
"That's not necessarily the case," I said, "but if I come forward, it will most likely be the case - Sang Yingjie shaved his daughter's hair, how many years did Wang Er stare at him? Now I have deceived his daughter's heart. , How could he hate me? You know him better than I do, so I have to ask you for advice."
Lin Zhi murmured: "Isn't this self-defeating?"
I looked gloating, "My IQ is 160, and my emotional intelligence is just 'haha'."
Most of Lin Zhi's worries are because the third lady's fortune is directly related to his official fortune, "This is troublesome. Wang Er doesn't speak, and Wang is more public than private. He has no reason to let Qianlong Villa go .¡±
I said: "Qianlong Villa is fine. Even if Wang Da stabs him with a knife, he won't bleed."
Lin Zhi said anxiously: "The key is not here, but whether there is a problem. Before a conclusion is drawn, no one can afford the investment or reputation."
When I think of the third lady's always confident and calm face and her beautiful eyes that seem to penetrate people's hearts, I get angry inexplicably. So it rains heavily, but I smile brightly, "Word of mouth can't be consumed, I can I understand, after all, I have been working hard for five years, but I have invested inher third lady¡¯s family has a big business, so it¡¯s still short of money?¡±
Lin Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "Didn't I tell you? The third lady has not yet succeeded the helm of the family, and any small troubles will be made a big fuss by competitors or people with ulterior motives. The Long Group was involved in the Xu Heng case. The building collapsed overnight and collapsed too quickly, far beyond the expectations of the third lady. Although the third lady acquired the Long family at the lowest price and took back the development rights of Qianlong Villa, no one expected that The financial black hole of the Long family is so huge. She is grateful to you or Xu Heng for this matter, because if Long Xiaotian is allowed to hold on for another year and a half, the Long family may not be able to fill it "
"Miss Third, is she short of money?" I said in one word.
Lin Zhi was startled and said with a smile: "To be precise, Qianlong Villa is short of money."
Qianlong Villa is short of money? My heart moved, ?Something seemed to flash in the sea, and then, I only caught a small tail
