Chapter 159: Mind Attack

In the south of the Yangtze River in early spring, it is warm and cold at first.

There is a rising moon hanging in the night sky, the moonlight is like water, and the half of the dark shadow in the disc can be faintly seen, I don't know if it is passed down by that generation, saying that it is Wu Gang's laurel, he persists in the axe every day and cuts endlessly, but the laurel is always chopped with the chopping, when the axe falls, the crack is cut to the bone, and the axe blade is together, and there is no scar.

Chu Ce stood on the terrace on the second floor, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, his heart was desolate, obviously he had drunk a lot of wine, somehow, he just didn't have the slightest drunkenness, today is February 13th, it is said to be a good day, otherwise Susan would have invited so many people who were related to them to celebrate his and hers' remarriage.

As soon as the word remarriage was mentioned, Chu Ce couldn't stop feeling sick to his stomach, to be honest, as soon as Susan returned to Chu's house that night, he had a premonition that the nightmare would come true again, and sure enough-

"Husband, tell you a happy event, I am pregnant, and the child is yours, the night before our divorce. Susan's delicate words could not hide the smugness.

At that moment, he was like being struck by lightning, and the good news from the mouth of this damn woman was nothing less than bad news to him! What happened on the night before the divorce? After trying to think about it for a long time, he vaguely remembered that night, Susan knelt in front of him with a handful of snot and tears, and first regretted that being together was torture, and divorce was the best choice, and after he readily agreed, she said pitifully that she couldn't sleep under one roof for a few years in vain, and the condition for the divorce was to make up for her- A hug to break up, a kiss goodbye to a breakup, a toast to a breakup......

I don't know if he was too desperate to be free, or if her acting skills were too good, but that night, they hugged, kissed, and toasted.

It's a pity that alcohol hurt him a lot, the first time he was drunk and lost the love of his life, and the second time, he was drunk again and made him happy to be a father!

Happily drunk, she said that she had his and her children, although he still had no memory of touching her.

Hearing her talk about how he was happy with her at that time, he felt humiliated and wanted to strangle her, but before he could do anything, he was pulled away by his parents who heard the news, and then, it was a brace that was hurried and ironic enough. Hehe, at the moment of the wedding, he really wanted to jump from the window on the 99th floor of the hotel, even if he was crushed, it was a brilliant freedom, but those were just thinking about it, he was completely taken care of by his family when he lost his freedom, and until the wedding was over, he was still alive, like a walking corpse.

In the middle of February, although the chill has not yet faded, the flowers are already blooming, a spring color, such a scene makes Chicago's early spring have a surprise and pure romance.

At half past nine in the morning, sitting in the office of the trading department of the Chicago Board of Trade, Lin Zien suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Huo Jingchen's sudden appearance yesterday afternoon, at that time, because of her weak heart, shame and guilt spread in her heart, so that she didn't have the ability to think too much, but now when she calms down and thinks about it, she feels that she was concerned yesterday, and now she thinks about it- With Huo Jingchen's calm style of acting, it is impossible for him to impulsively lose everything, and it is barely possible to make himself penniless, but to say that he has even lost all his documents, this is simply impossible, because his identity and status are there, and he will not know how serious the consequences of losing his documents will be, besides, he is also studying in the United States, how can he not even have a classmate here? and pitifully said that he was fighting with a homeless man for a night, that sentence, now that he thinks about it, he is simply forcing her to lure the wolf into the house, right?

As for what he said about the luggage falling on the taxi, it doesn't seem to be true, Chicago's taxis are strictly numbered, and the quality of the drivers is also good, because the reward for finding money is relatively high, and there are few cases of picking up passengers' luggage and not returning it, besides, according to Huo Jingchen's description, the driver is driving a Ferrari sports car, which is even more strange, Chicago's taxis are good, but she really hasn't seen a Ferrari sports car for rent, is it because she has been away for too long, the taxi industry here has developed by leaps and boundsObviously, the answer is - no!

Then there is only one possibility, he inadvertently said something, such as - sports cars?

Thinking of this, Lin Zien couldn't help but tap his fingers on the table, locked his eyebrows and groaned for a moment, then reached out to grab the phone and typed out the landline phone number of his guest room-

The phone was quickly picked up by him, and she called his name softly, "Huo Jingchen-"

Huo Jingchen, who was on the other side of the phone, leaned lazily on the sofa, holding the phone in his hand, and his tone lingered, "Well, you miss me so soon?"

was so ambiguously disturbed by him, the topic she wanted to ask came to the tip of her tongue but was suddenly changed, "Who misses you, I just asked the police station if there was a phone call from the police station to ask you to claim the lost property." ”

"Nope. Huo Jingchen imagined the way she was talking on the phone at the moment, and couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth, and deliberately pretended to be extremely helpless and said, "When I came here, I realized that you were the Yun family, the Yun family was a big family, and even the housekeeper was so tall, hey, my days under the fence seem to be very ......" What is the word behind it? helpless or embarrassed? He stopped in time, hummed, and the point was more flavorful than a straightforward explanation, since that person was sympathetic to his enemies, then, for his special lover, let her use her imagination.

Sure enough, Lin Zien frowned, she was afraid that the housekeeper's poor hospitality would cause him to feel penniless and sensitive to living in her house, so she asked in a busy tone, "Listening to your tone, it seems that you have been abused, what's the matter, the housekeeper treats you slowly?"

"It's not that I'm slow, I'm just eating and drinking, nothing. Huo Jingchen said that it was nothing, but the words did not stop there, and continued to say in a subdued tone, "Who made me lose all my luggage, it would have been embarrassing to borrow your father's new clothes to wear, and in the eyes of the housekeeper, I ......"

"Oh, that's right. Lin Zien patted his forehead, he was really confused! How could he forget that he hadn't changed his clothes? Alas, thinking that the person who was the most cleanliness habit borrowed his father's new clothes, even if he didn't wear them, it was inevitable that he would feel awkward and uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly comforted and assured, "Don't worry, I will get off work at half past three in the afternoon, and you will let the driver at home take you to the futures exchange at three o'clock, and I will accompany you to choose clothes." ”

Huo Jingchen laughed silently, but his tone was still embarrassed and helpless, "Oh, it seems that I have to do this first." ”

Hanging up the phone, Lin Zien poured herself a cup of hot coffee, when the hot coffee slid into her throat with a mellow aroma, and the faint bitterness spread between her tongue and teeth, she recovered from the nervous state of Guan Ji Chao, and her reason began to gradually return - what was the original intention of the call she made just now?

How could the phone call that was meant to talk about how he lost his luggage turned into a phone call where she accompanied him shopping?

Because of the new arrival, and the original trading manager was not in Chicago on a business trip, the handover between the old and the new had to be postponed until next week, so that Lin Zien was very leisurely, so leisurely that she spent the morning in memories. Her past with him reappeared in her mind like a rewind of a black-and-white movie, and she had to admit one thing - it seemed that since she met Huo Jingchen, no matter what she wanted, the result was in the order of what he wanted her to do!

This feeling made her suddenly feel a little angry, and it made her full of doubts, is it because her intelligence is declining, or is his IQ too high?

At four o'clock in the afternoon, it was still the same café we met yesterday, or the same location in the open air outside the café, Lin Zien stirred the coffee in front of her, stared at the person sitting opposite her and studied it for a while, before she seemed to ask casually, "Are you sure that this set of clothes on you is the one I gave you last night?"

Huo Jingchen smiled, but didn't look at her, but looked down at the clothes on his body, and asked in a calm and calm tone, "What's the matter, don't you wear it?"

"Well, that's not true. The smile on Lin Zien's face remained unchanged, but he was stunned in his heart - to be honest, Huo Jingchen is slightly taller than her father, if he really wears her father's clothes, he shouldn't be so close-fitting, right? Besides, although she took a set of unopened clothes and gave it to him, most of the clothes ordered by her father Suri were fixed in the styles of those suitable for middle-aged people, and Huo Jingchen's set did not look like his father's style, to be exact, it was more like a tailor-made fit for Huo Jingchen, and it fit properly.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you yesterday, how many days are you going to stay here?" Lin Zien knew that for the wise man in front of him, if he wanted to know the answer, it was useless to go around in circles, it was better to cut straight to the topic quickly.

Huo Jingchen smiled, but instead of looking at her, he looked down at the coffee cup in his hand, and replied calmly, "It's not up to me to decide how long to stay, it depends on someone's attitude." ”

Lin Zien was stunned for a moment, and asked unresponsively, "What do you mean?"

"It means that when someone goes back, I will go back. Although Huo Jingchen's voice was low, it was absolutely unquestionable.

When Lin Zien heard him say this, he blurted out in a hurry, "Then how can it be done?"

Huo Jingchen glanced at her, a bright light flashed under his eyes, and asked in a slow tone, "Why not, let's hear it." ”

Why can't he? Doesn't he know that as the head of the Huo Group, which has subsidiaries all over the world, there will be major projects that he needs to make decisions on every moment, and she is still reminded of these easy-to-understand questions?
