The headquarters of Donglin Group at night is beautiful.

During the day, it looks like a reinforced concrete building, but at night, under the outline of the lights, you can see the line design of different buildings.

The complex is divided into two large blocks. A road separates in the middle.

Lin Li walked towards the tallest building with Shi Xiaoai.

"This is the Donglin headquarters building. ”

Shi Xiaoai looked up, the shape was very square, and it did have the momentum of a management center.

The two of them passed by the gate, and Lin Li took out his work card to scan.

The security guards didn't recognize him, mainly because he didn't usually go in and out of here.

As a result of today's scandal at TP Group, the security departments of various companies have strengthened their management. Seeing that someone came at night, he still came in through the side door, and he didn't go out of the garage, thinking that he was some kind of idler.

Although Lin Li had a work card, Shi Xiaoai didn't, and the security guard asked her to take her ID card to register.

"North Gate, North Gate, Central Control Room Call North Gate. The security guard's walkie-talkie suddenly rang.

"Central control room, central control room, received at the north gate, received by the north gate. ”

"The system prompts, just now Mr. Kobayashi swiped the card from the north gate to enter, please confirm, please confirm. ”

Shi Xiaoai glanced at Lin Li and handed her ID card to the security guard.

Lin Li shook his head, saying that he did not know the workflow of the security department.

"Mr. Kobayashi?" the little brother repeated in a low voice, and then took Shi Xiaoai's ID card to scan, and his eyes aimed at the computer screen on the table, where the information of the card swiper should be displayed.

He jerked his head up at Lin Li, then at the screen.

"Mr. Lin is good. The little brother stood upright and saluted, and he still held Shi Xiaoai's ID card in his raised hand.

"I'm sorry, I've got something going on, so I'll come back. This is my friend, please register. Lin Li didn't expect that he would go through this way and cause trouble.

The little brother was a little at a loss, so he quickly returned Shi Xiaoai's ID card to her after scanning it.

"Can we go in?"

"Yes, yes. The little brother hurriedly opened the automatic door of the pedestrian passage.

"Thank you. ”

It was only after watching them get to the bottom of the building that the little brother returned to the guard room, where the walkie-talkie had been called for a long time.

“…… North Gate, North Gate, please answer, please answer. ”

"Central control room, central control room. This is the North Gate, this is the North Gate. Mr. Kobayashi went to Building No. 1 and went to Building No. 1. ”

“…… Do you want someone to take a look, it's so late, I'm afraid it's not safe......" The voice of several people discussing came from the central control room.

"That...... Central Control Room, North Gate...... That, Xiao Lin always took a girl with him, so you still don't want to go...... bar. ”

The world fell silent in an instant.

A few seconds passed.

"Wow......" There was a sudden commotion on the other end of the intercom, and it was obvious that not only the central control room, but everyone else who could hear the channel was talking.

"Is he a girlfriend?"

"What are you doing in Building 1 at this time?"

"Is it pretty?"

"Is it really hand in hand?"

The lady who was holding the hand is also anxious now.

Ever since he walked into the Donglin Gate, Lin Li had naturally held her hand, as if he had done so many times.

Fortunately, with the dark night as a cover, Shi Xiaoai felt that her face must have been flushed.

To hide her nervousness, she asked, "What the hell do you want to do?"

Lin Li chuckled, Shi Xiaoai must have guessed what was going to happen next, but he was very nervous, pretending to be calm, pretending to be fierce in his first move, but he was actually a paper tiger.

"Tell me about Donglin. Lin Li didn't let go of her hand, pointed to the shorter outbuildings in front of her and said, "This podium, my father didn't plan to build it. He wanted to build a tall building directly. Later, it was said that the land was cheaper, and in order to occupy a wider area, it became what it is now. ”

"Are you sure you're not denigrating your dad?"

"My dad was such a practical person. ”

"The price of this land should be very expensive now. ”

"Very expensive. Look at the other side, fortunately, my dad bought it back then. ”

"Rich people. ”

"Thanks for the compliment. ”

The two of them chatted as they walked inside the building. Shi Xiaoai looked around, no different from an ordinary office building.

However, compared with TP, the overall decoration style is more simple, adhering to the concept of practicality.

It seems that Father Lin is really a person who pays great attention to practicality.

Shi Xiaoai couldn't help but think of the building he said he wanted to give to himself. What is the purpose?

After entering the elevator, Lin Li directly pressed the 21st floor, the highest floor, and then pointed to the 20th floor and said, "This is my father's office." My office on the 19th floor is being renovated. Next year, I will serve as the vice president of Donglin. ”

"You're really a rocket at a speed of promotion, and no one objects?"

"Anyway, it's not surprising that everyone knows the end result. ”

"So, you're bringing me here to show off?"

"You can understand it that way. ”

The two chatted like this, and Shi Xiaoai gradually relaxed, ignoring the awkwardness of being held for the time being.

The elevator quickly reached the top floor, the elevator doors opened, and it was pitch black outside.

Although the light came in through the glass window, it was slightly mottled. The green light of the emergency exit lights is not reassuring at all, but only adds to the sense of fear. Shi Xiaoai couldn't help but lean towards Lin Li's side.

Lin Li led her, walked directly to a room, and pushed open a double door, the room seemed to be quite large.

"Wait for me here. ”

"Where are you going?" Shi Xiaoai not only didn't let go, but also grabbed it hard.

"Turn on the lights. ”

"I'll go with you. ”

"Good. Lin Li was a little helpless, and his tone was doting.

After not walking a few steps, Lin Li found the switches on the wall, turned them on one by one, and suddenly the room lit up.

It turned out to be an exhibition hall. From far to near, Shi Xiaoai saw that there were planning maps, historical photos, and sand tables.

"These are the development history of Donglin. Lin Li took Shi Xiaoai and explained to her one by one.

Shi Xiaoai originally liked to look at old photos, looked at each one seriously, and was very excited when she recognized acquaintances, such as Father Lin, such as Uncle Chen, and later discovered Li Qiang.

"This is Uncle Wu, Wu Cheng's father. Lin Li pointed to a photo of Lin's father pointing out the country with a group of men in suits.

In the photo, Father Lin is wearing a wide suit, holding a leather bag, and holding a mobile phone.

On the right is a very immature Uncle Chen, a classic three-seven distribution type, so handsome.

"You look a lot like your dad when he was younger. ”

"Actually, I'm more like my mom. You haven't seen her, though. ”

Since knowing that Lin Li's mother had passed away a long time ago, Shi Xiaoai had never mentioned the word "mother" in front of him. Conversations never bring up related topics.

Lin Li actually didn't mind, but Shi Xiaoai was afraid of saying the wrong thing. Today, for example, she doesn't know how to break the embarrassment.

It was Lin Li who spoke first: "By the way, my dad went to City C." When, we'll go back and see?"

"Good. ”

"I want to show you my grandparents, and my mother. ”

“……”

Lin Li led Shi Xiaoai to the floor-to-ceiling window, which overlooks the entire Donglin headquarters complex.

The height is staggered, and the brilliance is shining, especially the arc-shaped building across the street, the lines are very beautiful, and the middle is connected by a glass corridor, which has a feeling of traveling through time and space.

"Is it pretty?"

"Good looking. Shi Xiaoai was sincerely admired.

"On the first night I came to Donglin, I worked overtime until ten o'clock. My dad brought me here. At the time, I thought it was very good. ”

"And now?"

"Now, the more beautiful it is, the more I feel a great responsibility, and I don't have time to appreciate it. ”

Shi Xiaoai seemed to understand what Lin Li wanted to express.

Lin Li turned around, pointed to a planning drawing on the wall, and said, "Look, that's Donglin's goal for the next five, ten, or even twenty years. My father gave me a big stage. I've been in this position, but I've never had the opportunity to think about whether or not to stand here, and I don't have time to worry about whether I'll be able to surpass my father. I don't know where Donglin and I will go in the future. ”

On his face, Shi Xiaoai saw pride, confusion, confidence, or a flash of anxiety, these contradictory emotions were intertwined, appearing from time to time.

"But I want to try," Lin Li turned his head, looked into Shi Xiaoai's eyes, and said slowly, "With you." ”

At that moment, Shi Xiaoai felt that she hadn't done enough in psychological construction, and when she really waited for this moment, she was still about to be suffocated by a full sense of happiness.

She stretched out her hand and touched the pearls on her chest, and the round beads slid through the palm, and the cold touch made people sober.

"You've moved the whole of Donglin out today. I'm thinking......" Shi Xiaoai looked at the charming night scene outside the window, and said with a smile, "What should you say when you propose?"
