Drip after drop. I don't know whether her throat is blocked by emotions or the discomfort of being smoked by tobacco, she stepped on the last cigarette butt, it was astringent and itchy, but her heart still couldn't be calm.

With his hands propped up on the ground, he wanted to get up to see if there was a convenience store on the side of the road to buy cigarettes, but his legs were numb and he couldn't stand up. A tall figure stepped out of the Patrol Bureau, almost blocking the light that had been shining at her earlier.

Lin Xun looked up at him sideways, the spotlight was reflected on his face, the side lines were clear and resolute, she heard the lighter "bang", leaving the light of the cigarette butt, flickering and dimming.

Everything looks deep and unreal under the filter of sunglasses.

"Handsome," she said, her voice hoarse, she cleared her throat, and the man looked at her, "Is there any more cigarettes?"

Ye Zeyan sat down two steps away from Lin Xi and threw her a pack of cigarettes. He heard the sound of a lighter, the sound of burning tobacco, and the sound of a violent cough that cut through the silence.

He didn't know if the person sitting on the steps was crying or smoking, and the sound he made sounded like it was about to tear his throat.

The woman was wearing large sunglasses, and although she covered half of her face, she could still faintly see her tired cheeks, and her mouth was slightly open as if she was trying to absorb oxygen.

Nearly an hour after the meeting, she hadn't left, and he guessed her identity.

The pack of cigarettes was clutched in her hand, and she had no intention of returning it to him.

Ye Zeyan sighed and stood up. Half of his body was hidden in the darkness, and he spat out the last puff of cigarettes, "The people who are worse than you in this world are still alive." ”

I couldn't cry anymore but couldn't calm the breathless suffocation in my heart, in a word, shattered all the illusions.

For some reason, he had a feeling that the person in front of him seemed to disappear in the next second.

After speaking, he was worried about being unkind, and added, "Don't think about it." ”

The heart that sank to the bottom, under the traction of some force, has the strength to float upward.

People are sometimes like this, at a certain point, by someone, because of a certain word, as a blow to the head like a dream.

Lin Xi raised his head, and his gaze fell on the man's resolute jawline.

Like rain-eroded metal, even the self-deprecating laughter is hoarse, "Why does everyone think I can't think about it?"

Lin Xi fell asleep on the sofa again. I slept a lot this night, and when I sat up from the sofa, I was in good spirits, but I was a little cold and kept sneezing.

I took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, went upstairs to wash up, changed into sportswear, and went out for a morning run. ran around Mingyu three times, and finally couldn't do it with a dry mouth, so I stopped at the door of the supermarket.

This is a supermarket opened in the Mingyu Mansion, and residents can pay with their key cards. Lin Xi walked around, Aunt Huang had already bought some ingredients yesterday, she looked and took a few packs of instant noodles and a few tomatoes, and some snacks that she hadn't eaten for a long time.

A middle-aged couple was in front of her at checkout.

"Why don't you buy some more potato chips? I like to eat them when I come to the house. ”

"Then let's have some more cookies, Xiaotong likes it too. ”

The couple left the cash register and walked into the supermarket.

Lin Xi's face was expressionless, but he was unconsciously warmed by the ordinary relationship between a husband and wife.

Before going out, I really struggled with what to wear today. It can't be flattened, but it can't be too "coquettish". Lin Xi finally took out a gray plaid blazer from the closet.

She struggled with black and white for a while, changed into the silk black draped collar suspender, and then matched it with a pair of skinny jeans, and stepped on a pair of 10cm high-heeled boots from the S family.

She looked at herself in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the bathroom, fiddled with it for a long time, and finally put on a clavicle chain, grabbed a black crocodile Birkin, and walked out of the house.

As the flagship hotel of Lavida, the Accord is not only centrally located but also modern and simple without losing luxury. Compared with the gorgeous and cumbersome rich style, the main modern refinement of the current fashion has a strong artistic atmosphere.

On Saturday nights, there are not only businessmen holding meetings, families going out to eat, but also tourists visiting the southern city. Lin Xi sat on the sofa and waited for a while, and with a casual glance of his eyes, he saw a few people with heads and faces.

"How long have you been waiting?" You Yang was dressed in a gray suit, slim and exquisite.

"It's not early in the road today. Wen Renjin was already upstairs. ”

You Yang sat down on the sofa opposite her, "What do you think he sells in his gourd?"

"Want money, or else?" Lin Xi pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose to his head, his eyes disdainful.

5% of Lavida shares are sold at the market price for at least one billion.

You Yang's eyes under the silver-rimmed glasses turned, "Then what are you going to do?

Lin Xi pouted, "I'm not a bank, where can I get so much money for him to ask for a price?" Qi Xiuyuan borrowed Langyi's banquet hall from me before, saying that the municipal government would get a business promotion association after the New Year, to put it bluntly, it was to bridge the gap between government and business. I want to be pressed by a few big directors to give up the shares, and when I wait for the investment promotion, I can also see what the attitude of the government and the people in the company has not yet expressed their position. ”

After speaking, he felt that he was very handsome, and put the sunglasses he had just pushed back on the bridge of his nose, and folded his arms around him, confident, "Let's take a step and see a step." ”

You Yang snorted, shook out his watch and looked at the time, "It's 7:35, let's go." ”

The elevator door slowly opened on the 37th floor, and the restaurant manager was at the reception desk and the waiter was explaining his work, but when he looked up, he saw Lin Xi and hurriedly greeted him.

"Mr. Lin, are you here? Mr. Wen is already waiting in the South Wind Pavilion. ”

Lin Xi said softly, this manager had met a few times in other restaurants under Langyi, so he was familiar, and Wen Renjin should have explained. When he was led into the South Wind Pavilion, Wen Renjin was standing by the window and talking on the phone.

Seeing that she came and said a few more words to the other side, she hung up the phone and stepped forward to shake You Yang's hand. Knowing that Lin Xi didn't like him and didn't bother himself, he went back to Chen Shihan and sat down.

Lin Xi raised her hand to get off her sunglasses and put them aside with her platinum bag, and before Wen Renjin could speak, the waiter came up and asked her what she wanted to drink.

"I haven't ordered the food yet, right?

Waiting for Lin Xi's fingers to flip through the menu, he finished ordering according to his preferences unhurriedly, and then picked up Longjing and took a sip on his lips, "Ah, I didn't care what the two of you want to eat, you will add more when the waiter comes in?"

Her literacy doesn't make her really ignore others, unless they are two people across the dinner table.

Chen Shihan smiled coldly, Wen Renjin naturally would not be displeased with such a trivial matter, and his posture was elegant and official, "Today's chef was just invited from the imperial capital a few days ago, let's see if it suits your taste?"

Lin Xi watched silently as Wen Renjin finished saying this cliché, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a hypocritical arc, "When my friend came here before, I said that the level of Langyi's chef has dropped a lot. I hope Mr. Wen will choose someone this time-", she paused, and finally her eyes fell on Chen Shihan, her eyes were playful and meaningless, "It was well thought out." ”

The wine and food were all served, Wen Renjin waved his hand, and the waiter left the box willingly, leaving the four people at the table.

Lin Xi thought about the bend for so long, "It's hard to sit down with the two of you, I'll get straight to the point." ”

I was finally able to sit at a table with them calmly.

Wen Renjin and Chen Shihan are holding 5% of Langyi Hotel Group, a subsidiary of Lavida Group. The estimated market capitalization is 30 billion, and 5% of the shares are worth 1.5 billion.

In addition, the group is restarting the listing plan, not only the internal undercurrents of Lavida, but also external capital is eager to participate.

"For the 5% stake, you can make an offer. ”

Chen Shihan is not a white rabbit, and he didn't quote directly, "Are you still quite unconvinced? You asked your father and my mother to sign a prenuptial agreement, but why did this 5% still fall into my hands?"

These words struck Lin Xi, and the corners of her mouth tugged.

"No matter what you think of our mother and daughter, you better know that my mother is sincere to your father, and she has taken care of Uncle Lin for the past few years. I'm afraid that he cares more about him than your own daughter. ”

Regardless of whether what Chen Shihan said was true or not, the intention of specifically stimulating Lin Xi was self-evident.

Lin Xi didn't have the heart to get to the bottom of it, "Then your mother is probably blind, Lin Zhengxiong has never been short of women around him, you can ask Mr. Wen about this." ”

Xing's eyes narrowed slightly because of mockery, and swept disdainfully to the man who was called, "I guess, Lin Zhengxiong spent more happy times in the Tang Dynasty than in your mother's bed." ”

"You ......" Chen Shihan was choked by her words. Lin Xi didn't respect his father, but her mother Qian Fen and Lin Zhengxiong died together in a car accident, and she still feels more unforgettable about the loss of her mother, but Lin Xi actually talked about her mother so lightly and with a strong mockery.

Yang kicked her lightly at the bottom of the table, signaling her to restrain herself.

After all, she is the one who asks for it.

Lin Xi was like a cynical second ancestor who was taught by his parents, a little impatient, put away his lazy posture and sat up straight.

"I'm not here to fight you, make an offer. ”

"Heh......" Chen Shihan no longer cared about it now, "2.5 billion." ”

At tonight's dinner, Yu Shumei specially explained that she would change into a formal set of clothes, and she should not wear them as if she had come to investigate the case. Ye Zeyan couldn't think of any excuse to shirk it except for work, Ye Youliang personally called someone, and everyone in the criminal investigation team was saved from working overtime until the early hours of the morning on Saturday.

It was Ye Youliang's colleagues from the public security and his family members who came. Ye Zeyan naturally knows what his parents think, as the twenty-fourth filial son, Ye Zeyan talks eloquently, politely but not too close, and very cooperatively pleases several elders in the staggered cup.

When Zhou Xiaotong first entered the fifth junior high school, he heard Ye Zeyan's name because his father often talked about it.

At that time, Ye Zeyan was in his second year of high school, with good looks, outstanding appearance, and good academic performance, he was a good student in the eyes of the teacher, and a three-high male god in the mouth of female classmates.

Because of the relationship between the two fathers and colleagues, Zhou Xiaotong was also complacent because he was able to greet Ye Zeyan in school and was envied by the girls around him.

The vanity of a little girl is as simple as that.

Now that both families are in Nancheng, her father was promoted to the director of the Nancheng City Public Security Bureau, and he is still working under Ye Youliang, and the relationship is close to moving around a lot. Every time she saw this man, she couldn't take her eyes off it. secretly thought, she can be regarded as a woman who watched him grow up.

"Zeyan is very busy at work now, right? In addition to work, have you found a girlfriend?" asked Zhou Xiaotong's mother.

This kind of family gathering is attended by children, and the topics revolve around nothing more than the children's schoolwork, work and private life.

"Speaking of this, we also talk about it every day," With the opportunity to rush marriage, Yu Shumei naturally won't let it go, "But what's the use of talking every day, it's the same hard work as his father." His grandfather is in the imperial capital, and he also urges and asks every day. ”

"Shumei, you have such a wide range of connections, and Zeyan is so handsome, why are you still single? Zhou Xiaotong's mother smiled and continued to flatter and quipped.

"Oh, that's fine," Yu Shumei said as she glanced at her son, "Could it be that your aunt really said it, and she secretly had a girlfriend." ”

This kind of side-knocking marriage urging situation, after the age of 25, Ye Zeyan can't count how many times he has experienced it, and he is sloppy, "How come, if you have it, you will definitely take it home to your mother." You said that I worked hard like my father. ”

By the way, he pulled the Zhou Bureau to endorse himself together, "Zhou Bureau, you have a reason, which weekend does the criminal investigation team not work overtime?"

Several other public security cadres present at the scene all responded.
