Chapter 003: Parting
Li Yan looked at the strange woman in front of her in amazement, and said in her heart: "Could it be that I went to the wrong place, shouldn't I, it's not the first time I've come." ”
"Uh, I'm looking for Uncle Lin, Lin Weidong. Li Yan said.
"Are you Li Yan?" asked the strange woman.
"Yes, I'm Li Yan. Li Yan replied.
"Please come in, Mayor Lin is in the study. The woman said with a smile on her face.
"Who are you?" asked Li Yan as he walked inside.
"I'm the nanny hired by Mayor Lin. The woman explained.
Li Yan was a little puzzled, when she came to Lin Weidong's house before, it was always Lin Jing's mother Wei Shuxian who did the housework, why did she hire a nanny now?
"Mayor Lin, Li Yan is here. The woman came to the door of Lin Weidong's study and said to Lin Weidong.
"Let him in. Lin Weidong's voice came from the study.
"Uncle Lin is good. Li Yan carried the pen and inkstone he bought for Lin Weidong into the study.
Lin Weidong glanced up at Li Yan, his eyes swept over the bag in Li Yan's hand, and he squeezed out a smile on his face and said, "Little Yan, it's not the first time you've come to your uncle's place, and you still have something to take." ”
"It's not a valuable thing, but I saw that Uncle Lin likes calligraphy, and I saw that this inkstone was good in the handicraft market, so I bought it for you. Li Yan took out the inkstone and the lake pen and put them on Lin Weidong's table and said with a smile.
"Oh, I'll see. Lin Weidong heard Li Yan say this, and picked up the inkstone and lake pen handed over by Li Yan with interest, looked at it carefully, and said to Li Yan: "Little Yan, my uncle accepted it this time, don't buy anything next time." ”
Li Yan hurriedly said yes, and said in his heart: "Let's talk about next time next time, just accept it this time." ”
"Uncle Lin, what are you looking for me this time?" asked Li Yan after Lin Weidong accepted the gift.
"It's nothing, the main thing is to ask if the computer you ordered will arrive tomorrow afternoon, and you have packed up the rented place in the Pearl Commercial Building. Lin Weidong said.
"The place has been cleaned up a long time ago, just waiting for the computer to come. Li Yan said, he was a little puzzled, Lin Weidong specially called to ask himself to come over, is it just to ask himself about this kind of trivial matter, in fact, Li Yan asked Lin Weidong to do many things Lin Weidong can completely hand over to his subordinates, but because of Li Yan's reasons, most of him will personally ask, which makes Li Yan have always been deeply grateful to Lin Weidong in addition to respect, but Lin Weidong is a little fuss about a trivial matter like today.
"Uncle Lin, didn't you say on the phone that there was something else?" asked Li Yan.
"Well, yes, there are other things, I want to ask you, what is the matter with your godsister in Phoenix Township, how did I hear that you have an unusual relationship. Lin Weidong stared at Li Yan's eyes and asked.
Li Yan broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, he didn't expect the rumors in the township to have such a big impact, even Lin Weidong knew about it.
"Uncle, this is deliberately spread by a classmate in our school who is not on the wrong path with me, and he has clarified it in the all-school assembly a few days ago. Li Yan said.
"Little couple, although my uncle doesn't object to you falling in love with Jing'er, but I don't agree with it, my uncle sees that you are still a good boy, and Jing'er insists, I will turn a blind eye, but if you do anything to be sorry for Jing'er, I, as a father, will not sit idly by. Lin Weidong looked at Li Yan's eyes sharply and said.
"Uncle Lin, I am sincere to Jing'er, and you should be able to feel this with your experience. Li Yan said.
Lin Weidong nodded, sighed and said, "Little Lady, Uncle believes in your words, but, alas. ”
"Uncle, is something wrong?" Li Yan intuitively felt that something was happening, and from the moment he entered the door, he felt that something was wrong when he saw the nanny Lin Weidong had hired.
"Little couple, Jing'er was called to the provincial capital by his grandfather. Lin Weidong said.
"Well, the last time I saw her, she said she hadn't seen her grandfather for a long time, wouldn't it be nice to go and see him. Li Yan smiled.
"I mean, Jing'er was called to the provincial capital by his grandfather and never came back. Lin Weidong looked at Li Yan, who was pretending to be relaxed, and said word by word.
"Uncle Lin, tell me what's going on. Li Yan stood up suddenly, came to Lin Weidong's desk, put his hands on the edge of the desk, looked at Lin Weidong and asked eagerly, he completely lost his calm, and his mind was full of Lin Weidong's words just now: No more coming back, no more coming back......
Lin Weidong saw another scene, Li Yan suddenly stood up from his seat, came to his desk, his eyes suddenly turned red, and asked him in a hoarse voice What was going on, he had never seen Li Yan like this, in his impression Li Yan had always been full of confidence and talking and laughing freely.
When Lin Weidong saw Li Yan like this, he didn't hide it anymore, he told Li Yan what had happened in the past few days since Li Yan left.
It turned out that on the day Li Yan returned to Phoenix Township, Zhao Liang found Lin Jing at school and recounted the rumors about him and Wang Li in Phoenix Township, Lin Jing didn't believe it, so she went to Phoenix Township at noon that day, and when she came to Phoenix Township, she naturally knew all the content of the rumors, she returned home and ran to her room and cried.
Wei Shuxian saw that her daughter was sad, so she went up to persuade her, Lin Jing was sad and told Wei Shuxian the reason, Wei Shuxian took the opportunity to persuade Lin Jing to leave Shangyang City to transfer to the provincial capital to go to school, before Wei Shuxian mentioned many times to let Lin Jing go to school in the provincial capital, she refused for various reasons, but this time Lin Jing agreed.
In the evening, Wei Shuxian talked to Lin Lao in the provincial capital on the phone and told him about Lin Jing's situation, Lin Lao heard that his favorite granddaughter was in love at a young age, and his boyfriend was entangled with another woman, so he was furious, scolded Lin Weidong for a while that night, and then ordered Lin Weidong to send Lin Jing to the provincial capital. Lin Jing regretted it after agreeing to Wei Shuxian to go to school in the provincial capital, and begged her grandfather on the phone to take the coquettish, but in the end she still didn't beat the old man Lin, and was sent to the provincial capital by Lin Weidong that night, Wei Shuxian was not worried about her daughter, and decided to take care of her. Lin Weidong had no choice but to hire a nanny to take care of his diet and daily life.
Lin Weidong finished talking about what happened in one breath, Li Yan slowly calmed down, he sat back and asked, "How does Zhao Liang know when I want to go to Phoenix Township." ”
"I'm also very confused, but I'm afraid I have to ask Zhao Liang about this matter. Lin Weidong frowned.
"Uncle, Jing'er has been gone for so long, why didn't she call me?" Li Yan said.
"It's not to blame Jing'er, she has been clamoring to come back these days, and his grandfather locked her up in a fit of rage, how could he have a chance to call. Lin Weidong said.
"Is it possible to bring Jing'er back again, you see that the rumors in Phoenix Township a few days ago are all rumors, and they have been clarified. Li Yan asked.
"It's useless, you don't know my old man's stinky temper, no one can stop what he decides. Lin Weidong said.
Li Yan thought for a while and said, "Uncle, see if I can call Jing'er, she can't be locked up like this all the time, I persuade her." ”
Lin Weidong glanced at Li Yan and asked, "Little Ling, do you want to persuade Jing'er to stay in the provincial capital?"
"Uncle Lin, although I really want to be with Jing'er every day, but if I cause their grandchildren to be incompatible, I don't want to see it, if Jing'er can be happier in the provincial capital, I will also be happy. Li Yan said. He really hoped that Lin Jing could be happy, in his eyes, the distance from Shangyang to the provincial capital was not a problem, if he wanted to go, he could go at any time.
Lin Weidong looked at Li Yan with a sincere look, and didn't ask again, he picked up the phone on the table, dialed a number, and said to Li Yan who was stretching his neck trying to remember the number he dialed: "It's useless, this is an internal line, except for a few limited calls, other calls can't be called." ”
Hearing this, Li Yan scratched his head with a smile, and stood there waiting for the phone to be connected.
A moment later, Lin Weidong handed the phone to Li Yan, and then he went out of the study.
"Hey, Daddy. Lin Jing's weak voice came.
"Jing'er is me. Li Yan said.
"Li Yan, is that you?" Lin Jing's voice was full of surprise.
"It's me, are you okay these days?" asked Li Yan.
"Not good, I'm bad. Lin Jing's voice came, and Li Yan almost saw Lin Jing's cute appearance with puffed cheeks on the other end of the phone.
"What's not good, let's hear it. Li Yan asked.
"Li Yan, are they telling the truth?" Lin Jing asked with some resentment.
Li Yan was silent, he didn't know how to answer Lin Jing's question, if he said it was a rumor, he would definitely be able to make Lin Jing happy, but there will always be a day when the lie will be exposed, what will he do then, he feels that if he tells a lie now, then he will really lose Lin Jing forever.
"Li Yan, what's wrong with you, speak. Lin Jing asked.
"It's true. Li Yan said, his voice was a little hoarse, and in the end he decided to tell the truth, and he couldn't say anything to deceive Lin Jing no matter what.
"Li Yan, is it true that you said that you are with Sister Wang Li?" asked Lin Jing's voice trembling a little.
"It's true, Jing'er. Li Yan confirmed.
There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and after a while, Li Yan heard Lin Jing's suppressed cry, he felt that his heart was broken, and he regretted telling the truth a little.
"Li Yan, what have you done, what has become of a girl who loves you so much. Li Yan couldn't help but want to slap herself.
"Jing'er, you speak. Li Yan said worriedly on the other end of the phone.
"Li Yan, I wish you and Sister Wang Li happiness, I'm fine. Lin Jing pretended to be relaxed, and her voice came, but when she heard Li Yan's ears, it looked so desolate.
"Jing'er......" Li Yan screamed, the damage had been done, and he suddenly felt so pale no matter what he said.
"Okay, Li Yan, don't worry, I'm fine, I won't tell you, grandpa called me to eat, by the way, I forgot to tell you, I'm going to go to school in the provincial capital, I'm afraid I can't see you every day, hehe, hang up." After Lin Jing finished speaking, she hung up the phone with a snap.
Li Yan listened to the beeping sound on the other end of the phone, although Lin Jing pretended to be relaxed and said a lot, but Li Yan was even more worried, he wanted to go to the provincial capital to see Lin Jing immediately.
"Li Yan, what are you going to do, are you going to hurt Jing'er even more?" Li Yan suppressed his idea of wanting to see Lin Jing, what if he went, maybe it would be better for everyone to calm down for a while.
…………
After Li Yan came out of Lin Weidong's house, he walked alone on the street, looked up at the sun in the sky, and he felt that today's sun was a little gray.
Li Yan was not in a hurry to go home, so he walked aimlessly on the street, I don't know how long he walked, looked up at the front, and found that he had unconsciously come to the door of Lao Huang Restaurant, so he walked in.
