At nine o'clock in the evening, Xin Qing's flight landed at the airport on time.

Lin Dingqiang waited at the exit of the international arrival, and after about fifteen minutes, he finally saw a familiar figure in the crowd of people rushing out.

Xin Qing didn't even bring a suitcase when she came back this time, only carrying a small handbag, a pair of sunglasses, and walked towards Lin Dingqiang with a smile.

"Lao Lin, how long have you been here?" Xin Qing asked happily.

"It's been a while. Lin Dingqiang replied, "Didn't you bring any luggage?"

Xin Qing smiled and said, "I have to go back after a while, so I didn't bring anything." ”

Lin Dingqiang was puzzled: "Still leaving?"

"It's not that I'm leaving, it's that I haven't finished some of my work yet. With that, Xin Qing opened the handbag in her hand, took out a newspaper from it, it was the New York Observer, and handed it to Lin Dingqiang, "Look, are you still satisfied?"

Lin Dingqiang took the newspaper, and the all-English layout made him not come back to his senses for a while, but looking at his photo on the front page, he noticed the eye-catching title in bold font.

The literal translation means the rise of the mysterious capital Rongshan Group from the East.

Lin Dingqiang took a general look, and the direction written by Xin Qing was in the business of Rongshan Group in the United States, which was two different directions from the development history of Rongshan led by Huo Jinwei.

And according to this report, Xin Qing is obviously more rigorous and objective than Huo Jinwei's team in terms of professionalism, and basically can't see any subjective depictions.

Lin Dingqiang put away the newspaper from the other side of the ocean and thanked him: "Thank you." ”

Xin Qing smiled: "When did you and I become so polite?

Lin Dingqiang laughed relievedly, "I just ate a little casually at the airport while I was waiting for you, what about you?"

"I slept as soon as I got on the plane and had some in-flight meals on the way. Xin Qing said as she walked: "I'm a little hungry now." ”

"Then what do you want to eat?" Lin Dingqiang asked rhetorically, "Why don't we go to Gui Street for supper?"

Xin Qing thought for a while, "Why don't you take me back and cook noodles for me to eat?" I haven't eaten the fried noodles you made for a long time." ”

Lin Dingqiang nodded, "Okay, no problem." The apartment has been cleaned and is still the way it was, you can go back and have a look. ”

The two walked out of the terminal, and after getting on the bus, Lin Dingqiang bought some ingredients on takeout, calculating that he should arrive at the apartment before himself.

The car drove on the Beijing Road at night, and the neon lights along the way seemed to arouse Xin Qing's heart, she looked at the scenery outside the window and recalled: "Although it was only a short period of more than two months, everything here seems to have become strange." It's back to when I first came back to the capital. ”

"You're not used to it yet. Lin Dingqiang said slowly: "You have a good rest tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, sleep in a familiar place, and when you get up the next day, everything will become familiar." ”

Xin Qing turned her head from the passenger seat to look at the mature Lin Dingqiang, two dimples crawled up her cheeks, "Old Lin, you still have one thing to do." ”

"What?"

"You promised me to accompany me to the end of ninety-nine things. Xin Qing said happily: "We have already done four things, I still hope you can accompany me to finish it." ”

Lin Dingqiang remembered his promise and nodded slightly, "Okay, do what you say." ”

After the Rolls-Royce returned to the familiar garage, the two got on the elevator. In the elevator, Xin Qing looked more at the elevator room that she was very familiar with, wanting to get back everything she had lost, "Lao Lin, where do you live now?"

"It's still on top of the Rongshan Building, where I've lived all this time. Lin Dingqiang replied truthfully: "At first, I was a little unaccustomed to it, but now it is much better." ”

Xin Qing bowed slightly, "Will it be lonely to live alone?"

"There's loneliness. Lin Dingqiang said half-jokingly: "But success is often accompanied by loneliness, and only by enduring this loneliness will we usher in a higher level of life." ”

Xin Qing burst out laughing, "When did you stop doing business and become a master of success?"

"Just now. Lin Dingqiang said with a smile: "There are many skills, but you don't have to press." If something goes wrong with the company one day, you can still rely on this mouth to eat. ”

The elevator door opened, and the password of the fingerprint lock remained unchanged. Lin Dingqiang motioned to Xin Qing to open the door, Xin Qing put his thumb on the sensor, ticked, and the door of the apartment, which had been sealed for a long time, was opened again.

The familiar scene came into view again, this apartment recorded a series of processes from the beginning of the two to determine the relationship, although they have not yet entered the house, but looking at the extremely familiar layout of the room, the scenes of living together instantly came to the hearts of the two.

Xin Qing strolled into the room, her things untouched. Sometimes women's nerves are more sensitive than men's, tears are full of eyes, Xin Qing choked up and said: "It still smells of home here." ”

Lin Dingqiang took a step back, he took off his blazer, put it on the back of the chair casually, and rolled up the cuffs of his shirt, "You sit first, what I want to buy should be coming soon." No, I think the delivery time is obviously earlier than us. ”

Xin Qing turned her back and wiped the tears that had just flowed out, turned her head and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll wait for you." ”

And at this time, the property management lady came to the gate with the things Lin Dingqiang bought, and after knocking lightly on the door, she showed a professional smile.

Lin Dingqiang went out and took the ingredients, turned around and threw himself into the kitchen again, and began to make the fried noodles she wanted to eat for Xin Qing.

Everything seems to have returned to the beginning, Lin Dingqiang was busy in the kitchen, Xin Qing was sitting in the living room, she looked at the man in the kitchen who was preparing dinner for herself, and her heart was very moved.

It took about half an hour for a simple fried sauce to be served, and Lin Dingqiang said with a smile: "Taste it, it's still not the original taste." ”

Xin Qing accompanied the noodles, and before she ate them, a smile bloomed on her face, "Just smell the taste." ”

"I was in a bit of a hurry today and forgot to buy cucumber strips. Lin Dingqiang lowered his cuffs, "When I have enough time another day, I'll give you a bowl of deluxe version of fried noodles." ”

Xin Qing took a bite, and was about to say that it was delicious, but he saw Lin Dingqiang walking towards the door, "Old Lin, where are you going so late?"

Lin Dingqiang took on his blazer and explained, "Shanshan is still with the sixth son." Jinwei hasn't come back yet, I'm going to pick her up and send her back to Diaoyutai. ”

Xin Qing was stunned for a second, and wanted to say something, but she swallowed it anyway and instructed, "Pay attention to safety when driving at night." Send me a message when you arrive. ”

Lin Dingqiang nodded, "You also rest early, I still have some things to do tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time to accompany you." ”

Xin Qing smiled and said, "No, I'll stay at home." You go get busy first. ”

Lin Dingqiang closed the door, he didn't see that the moment the door was closed, Xin Qing's long-held tears came out of his eyes and dripped into the bowl.

Xin Qing cried with noodles, her throat trembled uncontrollably, she knew in her heart that she might not be able to do without Lin Dingqiang in her life.

......

By the time Lin Dingqiang returned to the bean juice shop again, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening.

The bean juice shop has closed, and only the six sons are still left in the store to accompany Huo Qingshan to watch Captain Wang.

"Liuzi, I'm sorry for you today. Lin Dingqiang said apologetically: "Delaying you for so long." ”

Wang Liushun was still as honest as ever, with a simple smile on his face, "It's okay, I had a good time with Shanshan." Not to mention, if this captain really looks into it, it will be quite interesting. Isn't that right, Sanshan?"

After Huo Qingshan saw Lin Dingqiang come back, she who had usually gone to bed long ago also became excited, and shouted happily: "Uncle and Dad, you are finally back." ”

Lin Dingqiang touched Huo Qingshan's head, "You kid, what is this name?"

"It's my uncle and father!" Huo Qingshan shook her head, "First my uncle, and then my uncle took care of me like a father, isn't that what it's called?"

"You've made up your own name. Lin Dingqiang quipped: "I'll see your mother later, you are not allowed to shout like this." ”

Huo Qingshan pouted, "Got it." ”

Lin Dingqiang hugged Huo Qingshan and said, "Sixth son, let's go first." This kid has to go to school tomorrow. ”

Wang Liushun was lazy and sent the two out of the door, "Brother Qiang, you go slowly." ”

"Good. ”

Lin Dingqiang still put Huo Qingshan in the back row, and after sitting down, he rushed towards Diaoyutai No. 7 Courtyard.

Huo Qingshan, who was still very excited at first, fell asleep after a while in a stable Rolls-Royce. Lin Dingqiang didn't move with the back row, and looked through the rearview mirror, the sleeping little girl had a smile on her face, and he deliberately turned up the temperature of the air conditioner to prevent her from catching a cold.

When Lin Dingqiang arrived downstairs in Courtyard No. 7, Huo Jinwei was already waiting in the entrance hall.

Lin Dingqiang walked in with the sleeping Huo Qingshan in his arms, Huo Jinwei walked up with a smile and asked in a false voice, "Asleep?"

"I slept when I came. Lin Dingqiang wanted to hand Huo Qingshan over to Huo Jinwei, but the child didn't know whether he was really asleep or fakely asleep, so he just wouldn't let go, Huo Jinwei saw this and said, "Why don't you go up and sit down, and then you can leave when you put down Shanshan." ”

Lin Dingqiang nodded, followed Huo Jinwei's footsteps into the elevator, and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing over there today?"

"The hotel thing. Huo Jinwei replied, "By the way, has Xin Qing arrived?"

"It's here. I sent her back to her original apartment. Lin Dingqiang paused, and then said: "But she said that she will go to the United States in a few days to deal with some things." ”

Huo Jinwei sighed lightly, and the elevator also came to the corresponding floor at this time. After opening the door, Huo Jinwei found a pair of slippers for Lin Dingqiang, and said, "There is only such a pair of men's slippers at home, and I bought them for you." I just don't know if the size is right, you try it first. ”

Lin Ding kicked off his shoes, put them on, and walked in with Huo Qingshan in his arms, "Put it on the bed?"

Huo Jinwei hurriedly took Lin Dingqiang to Huo Qingshan's room, Huo Qingshan, who was clamoring to live in the master bedroom, still failed to realize her dream, but her current bedroom is also thirty or forty square meters, and with Huo Jinwei's careful arrangement, it has become a pink and tender princess room.

Lin Dingqiang lightly put Huo Qingshan on the bed, but this little girl still didn't let go, which made Huo Jinwei on the side laugh.

Although she is not her biological daughter, after all, she grew up watching herself, and Huo Jinwei immediately understood Huo Qingshan's careful thoughts.

She reached out and tickled Huo Qingshan's itch, and Huo Qingshan, who was pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened her big eyes, "Mom." ”

"Don't you want to see your mother so much?" Huo Jinwei asked rhetorically, "Don't even open your eyes to look at me." ”

Huo Qingshan's hand hugged tighter, leaned her head on Lin Dingqiang's arms, and looked at Huo Jinwei, "Of course Shanshan wants to see her mother, but with her uncle and father, Shanshan doesn't want to be her mother." ”

"Uncle and father?" Huo Jinwei reacted immediately, her pink face burned red, and she was instantly embarrassed as a mother when her daughter said this, and also said: "What is this called!"

Lin Dingqiang was also choked by Huo Qingshan's anger, it seems that the child can't fully believe what he said, "Didn't you say that it was a secret between the two of us?"

"Hee-hee......" Huo Qingshan grinned: "Uncle and father won't be angry with Shanshan, right?"

"It's really useless for you. Lin Dingqiang let out a long sigh, "Hurry up and go to sleep, otherwise I will go to your teacher tomorrow to complain and ask her not to give you the big red flower." ”

When Huo Qingshan heard that the big red flower was going to be gone, she quickly let go of her hand and begged, "Uncle and father, you can't sue me." I'm going to sleep. ”

Huo Jinwei laughed, "You still have a way." Ding Qiang, you go sit outside first, and I'll wash and change Shanshan's clothes. ”

Lin Dingqiang walked out of the room and sat on the sofa. About twenty minutes later, Huo Jinwei walked out after she was busy.

She brought a bottle of water to Lin Dingqiang, and Lin Dingqiang asked, "Did you really sleep?"

Huo Jinwei nodded, "I'm asleep, but I'm still calling my uncle and father." ”

Lin Dingqiang took a sip and continued: "Tomorrow, if you are free, we will go to the stadium together." I made an appointment with the bell. ”

Huo Jinwei once said that she would provide financial support for Lin Dingqiang's 400-acre project in the suburbs of Beijing, so it is best for her to come forward on this occasion, firstly, to show the leaders that there will be no problems with the financial flow of this project, and secondly, to let all partners have full confidence.

Huo Jinwei nodded, "No problem." By the way, Ding Qiang, I have asked the left hand of the finance side to prepare the first payment for the development funds. But there's one thing I want to explain to you. ”

"You say. ”

"Because the amount of money needed for this development is too huge. Huo Jinwei said truthfully: "Although the foundation also knows your strength, they still hope to send a financial management team to your group to supervise the foundation's money and use it for special purposes." But don't worry, this group of people is personally selected by me, and they will only supervise the current accounts of this project, and will not involve the interests of your group itself. ”

In the face of Huo Jinwei's truthful confession, Lin Dingqiang did not embarrass Huo Jinwei, "No problem, this is as it should be." ”

Huo Jinwei laughed happily, "As long as you don't mind." ”

Lin Dingqiang looked at the time, "It's not too early, I'll leave first." We'll see you tomorrow. ”

"Why don't you stay and sit?" Huo Jinwei sneered.

"Huh?"

Huo Jinwei laughed, "Fun with you! Go back quickly, drive carefully." Remember to send me a message when it's time and I'll wait for you. ”
