Chapter 41: Clues

stayed at Zhang Jing's house until almost one o'clock in the morning, Lin Zitan, who was originally arranged by Zhang Jing to rest in the guest room, tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep well, and finally got up secretly and prepared to go back to his home.

At that time, there was no electric car-hailing, and every family in their district had a private car, so they couldn't get a taxi at night at all, so in order not to disturb Zhang Jing, who had fallen asleep, Lin Zitan finally wrapped his coat and ran back on foot.

Because it is close to Christmas, they are a rich area here, and the yards of every house are lit up, and it seems that each villa is magnificent and brightly lit, so the quiet and peaceful community on weekdays, because of this dazzling landscape, does not make Lin Zitan feel particularly lonely.

The neon lights that change from time to time in front of him seem to lead him into a romantic fairy tale world, but all the themes of the fairy tale world are Christmas.

Lin Zi didn't run fast, he originally drove less than 10 minutes, but he also ran for nearly half an hour, and he even ran out of a thin sweat on such a cold day.

When he was about to approach their villa, he took a look from a distance and found that the light on the balcony on the second floor was still slightly on, originally thinking that Li Manrui was waiting for him, but after thinking about it, Li Manrui could not know that he was coming back so late, so he quietly slowed down his pace and lightened his movements.

Lin Zitan glanced up at the balcony on the second floor, because the lights of their house were shining, and Mike's tall figure was half hidden in the darkness.

"There must be no problems with this batch, no matter what the cost, do you understand what I mean? Otherwise, everyone will die together, understand?" Mike on the balcony whispered in Italian to the person on the phone, unfortunately, even if he spoke all Italian, Lin Ziyan at the moment had no difficulty listening to Chinese.

"I'll go and open the joints early tomorrow morning, but tonight, you've all broken me down, no one can make a mistake, let's not do it for a day or two or two, don't make a fuss about a little thing, otherwise what's the use of me raising you!" After a while, Mike's voice rang out from the balcony again.

Lin Zitan waited until Mike finished the phone call and didn't dare to make any moves, he held his breath, originally wanted to hear what was going on, which could make Mike so angry, but unfortunately Mike was very cautious from beginning to end, except for scolding, he didn't say a word about business.

"Hula~" The floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony was opened and closed with a "bang~", Lin Zitan knew that it must have been Mike who had entered the house after making the call, and seeing that he was about to freeze into a popsicle if he stayed any longer, he quickly and quietly took out the key, opened the door and flashed in.

In order not to attract Mike's attention, Lin Zi didn't turn on the light, and quickly walked to his bedroom from memory, and only after entering did he take off his coat and lightly turn on the smallest light on the bedside table.

"What the hell is this guy doing?" It's not that Lin Zitan is sensitive, because Mike goes out early and returns late all day long, and it stands to reason that a wine merchant, especially with Mike's scale, doesn't need to go to the winery every day to stare at it, but Mike runs to the city almost every day like a normal office worker.

Although Li Manrui married him, judging from Lin Zitan's observation, he did not hand over his financial power to Li Manrui at all, which is completely different from marrying a Chinese.

Lin Zitan sat there and thought for a while without a clue, after all, he had a bad relationship with Mike before, although he had some interaction now, but his understanding of this Italian-American Lao Mei was too limited, and he didn't ask for anything else at this stage, as long as Mike didn't have two hearts for Li Manrui, and didn't pick his nose and eyes at himself, even if everyone was happy.

Thinking of this, Lin Zitan's already sleepy body stretched out and lay down on his queen-sized big bed, but he bounced up again in just a moment.

"M's, I'm sweating a lot, I need to wash it a little. So Lin Zitan quickly walked to the bathroom connected to the bedroom and took a battle bath.

On the other side that Lin Zitan didn't know, Mike had actually seen Lin Zitan who came back from running, but he thought that what he said was all Italian, even if this kid heard something, it was impossible to understand, not to mention that he didn't leak a drop of words, but Lin Zitan's sneaky behavior also attracted his attention somewhat.

After sleeping until dawn, when Lin Zitan woke up, only the nanny and aunt were left in the kitchen to clean up something, and when they heard him get up, they said that the breakfast was warm and asked him to come over and eat quickly.

"Aunt Li, when did Mike go out?" Lin Zitan asked casually as he walked to the bar in front of the open kitchen, picking up the freshly cooked xiaolongbao and eating it.

"He seems to have gone out early in the morning, and he left before I got up, do you have something to do with him?" Aunt Li listened to Lin Zitan ask Mike, and felt quite fresh for a while, although she had only been here for a short time, but she had already felt the interpersonal relationships in this family clearly, and Lin Zitan and Mike said hello on weekdays, why did this child ask about his stepfather's whereabouts early in the morning?

"It's okay, my classmate was fined by the NYPD last night and wanted to ask him about finding a lawyer. Lin Zitan replied solemnly.

"Oh, I don't understand this, why don't you call and say hello~" As soon as Aunt Li heard that this was the case, she felt that there was nothing strange about it, so she hurried to clean up again.

Lin Zitan sat at the bar, remembering the phone call Mike made last night, thinking that he must have been in a hurry to deal with the so-called troublesome matter in the morning, or should he ask later, or wait for him to come back in the evening!

As a result, he didn't expect that Mike would walk for two or three days after leaving like this, and Zhang Jing was anxious when he was waiting, and finally Lin Zitan helped him find a lawyer on the Internet who specialized in handling traffic tickets.

In the past few days, Lin Zitan has a Christmas holiday, and Li Manrui called him to help for a day except for the first day of his holiday, and then let him review at home, so Lin Zitan is very happy, and it just so happens that his stocks have been bought for a while, so he is bored and calculates how much money he has.

Apple's recent rise is not very large, but fortunately, it has been slowly climbing, and I felt that I had entered the forest too late, and I already felt very lucky at this time, because if he hadn't won the 500,000, now even if Apple rose to 100 yuan, it has nothing to do with him, but now it's different, watching Apple's related news every day, watching the K-line has been rising, as if watching his own children grow up, both relieved and excited.

"Jingle bell~" The mobile phone placed on Lin Zitan's right hand suddenly rang, his eyes were staring at the line map, and he had already picked up the phone that rang in his hand.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Daniel, where?" came Zhang Jing's lazy voice on the phone.

"What about at home, what about you?" Lin Zitan actually asked casually, because of such a festival, the old beauties celebrate the whole country, they are the coldest overseas Chinese, they don't eat any turkey, and no one has been to any Christmas Eve, basically none of the Chinese shops on such a festival are closed, and they will even open later than usual.

"I'm bored, do you want to go to Flushing to eat delicious food? I eat my aunt's cooking every day, I'm tired of it!" Zhang Jing's voice is not small, and I don't know if their nanny and aunt can hear it, but at this time, it is still early, and Zhang Jing's second ancestor must still be nested in the bed!

"What do you want to eat? Do you want to eat hot pot?" Speaking of food, on such a cold day, Lin Zitan's first thought was hot pot, so he opened his mouth and said it.

"Okay, let's go eat hot pot, if only I could call a few more people, it doesn't seem to be lively enough for the two of us to eat. Zhang Jing agreed to come down and said in pieces.

"Then call a few people who know~" Lin Zitan doesn't matter, anyway, how many people are present, he pretends to be cold, just eat less.

"That's okay, I'll pick you up at your house later!" Zhang Jing hung up the phone after speaking, leaving Lin Zitan with the mobile phone in his hand, and there was only a busy sound in his ears.
