In the afternoon, at Beijing airport. Lin Xi, who was carrying a backpack, stepped out of the car. came down with Lin Jun who was driving.

"Are you in such a hurry to go back? Don't you go back after dinner?" At the gate of the airport, Lin Jun looked at Lin Xi and said with some surprise, "The old man was still thinking about giving you more food tonight, but I was disappointed enough to hear you say that you were going back." ”

"No way, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, you can't really get home until Chinese New Year's Eve." It's not overtime, it's not something to do, so you can help me say a few nice words from the professor. Lin Xi smiled and answered Lin Jun's question softly.

Then, he raised his hand and looked at the time, and continued to smile, "Okay, I won't talk to you more." The flight is estimated to be fast, and I'll talk to you when I pay New Year's greetings, I'll go back first. ”

Nodding, Lin Jun then took out his wallet from his pocket, then took out a bank card and handed it to Lin Xi. After seeing his puzzled eyes, he said, "Didn't you say that you would buy a suite with your uncle and aunt when you go home, and if you didn't buy a car for Taeyeon, it would be enough." But now that you're worth something, I'm afraid it's a little difficult. Take it first, but just brush mine first, and then return it to me after the New Year's headquarters sends your share. ”

"I still have some money on me, enough to buy a suite in our small city. Lin Xi instinctively wanted to refuse Lin Jun's move, but he directly stuffed the card into his hand, "Tease me, don't I know that your little money is in my hands? Okay, don't make it so troublesome, take it, you can't afford it, it's just not for the time being. ”

Lin Jun said that this was the case, and Lin Xi naturally stopped refusing and accepted the bank card. On the contrary, as Lin Jun said, it is not that there is no money, but it has not arrived for the time being.

After seeing Lin Xi take the card, Lin Jun also smiled, "You also took this card before, you should know the password." Okay, I won't talk to you more, I have to go back and help the old man clean up first, otherwise I will be scolded again. ”

"Well, I know, Brother Jun, you drive carefully. Lin Xi smiled slightly and nodded. Lin Jun, who had already turned around and walked to the car, raised his hand handsomely and waved, then sat back in the driver's seat and left.

After seeing Lin Jun leave, Lin Xi was not in a daze, and after collecting his bank card, he turned around and walked into the airport. Head straight to the ticket gate and get ready to take a flight back to your hometown.

A few hours later, at the gate of the airport in a city in the south, Lin Xi, who was carrying a backpack, also walked out. Then, he casually stopped the car and asked the driver to drive towards the automobile city in the city.

In the back seat, Lin Xi was also thinking about something. Originally, as Lin Jun said when he was in Beijing before, when he was in Seoul before, he planned to return to China and return to his hometown, so he and his parents went to buy a house, and then sent a car to his father, after all, he muttered about this situation several years ago. But at that time, because I was in college, I couldn't save some money to buy a car, so I didn't have much follow-up.

Now that he has money, Lin Xi naturally thinks about his father's wishes for the first time. Although he spent a large amount of bonus benefits when he was in Seoul before, Lin Xi didn't feel worried at all. Because in addition to the bonus, the share of his first pot of gold has not yet arrived, and this money is a large share. If Lin Jun hadn't given Kalinxi the first time just now, it is estimated that it would really be as he said, after buying a car, it is estimated that it will be so troublesome to take out a loan after a down payment to buy a house. But now it's okay, don't bother with it.

Just when Lin Xi was thinking about these questions, the taxi also sent Lin Xi to the automobile city of this southern city. After getting out of the car, Lin Xi glanced at the car brand logo around him, hesitated for a moment, and then turned around and walked into a 4S store with the 'H' logo.

After another hour or so, a brand-new Honda sedan pulled out of the gate and headed for the city's highway entrance.

In the car, Lin Xi said with a smile while driving the car, "It's still convenient to have your own car, otherwise you have to go to the bus station to wait in line." I guess when I got home, it was already night. After speaking, Lin Xi looked down at the time on his watch, and the current time happened to be just over 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Because Lin Xi's hometown is not this city, but a fourth-tier city quite far away from this city. There is no airport, so if you want to go back there, you can only take the city line from the bus station. But now that I've bought my own car, I don't have to be so troublesome. On weekdays, it takes about 3 hours to travel from this city to your home, and it takes about 3 hours to stop and detour. But now after driving by himself, this time was shortened by Lin Xi by almost an hour, and before 6 o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xi saw the exit sign in his hometown on the highway.

Hometown timidity, this is the situation when most wanderers return home, and Lin Xi is naturally no exception.

The car slowly drove out of the highway, and at this moment, the mobile phone that was placed aside rang at the right time. Looking down, Lin Xi suddenly laughed when he saw the word Mom, swiped across the screen, and said with a smile, "Hey, Mom." ”

"Xiaoxi, where are you now? Do you want your dad to pick you up at the station, I've already started cooking here, and I have your favorite fish and chicken wing tips." As soon as the mobile phone was connected, there was a message from the other end that warmed up Lin Xi's mood instantly.

"No need, I'll just go back by myself, I'll be home soon, I'll see you then." Lin Xi, who planned to surprise his family, rejected his mother's idea and answered her question softly. After chatting a few more words between the two, they hung up the phone.

Then it took about half an hour, Lin Xi finally returned to his small township, looking at the lively street, Lin Xi also showed a happy smile.

And when Lin Xi returned to his hometown, in Seoul, Kim Taeyeon was also unexpectedly called to his office by Li Ran, the head of the room.

Looking at the head of the room, who had not been seen for a long time, Kim Taeyeon also looked around with some confusion, and then said, "Hello, Director Lee, do you have anything to do with me?"

Li Ran, who was processing the document at this time, raised his eyes to look at the front of him after hearing Kim Tae-yeon's voice, and then said, "Oh, here it is." Sit down first, I'll finish this first. ”

"Hmm. Kim Taeyeon nodded, and slowly sat down next to her. Then he glanced at the document in Li Ran's hand intentionally or unintentionally, but he didn't stretch his eyes, and after finding that he couldn't see anything, he withdrew his eyes and waited quietly for Li Ran to finish his work.

Fortunately, Li Ran didn't let Kim Tae-yeon wait for a long time. Only a few minutes passed, and he closed the file in front of him and put it aside. Then he looked at Kim Taeyeon in front of him and smiled, "Do you know what I'm looking for you for?"

"I don't know. Kim Taeyeon, who was already confused, shook her head after hearing Li Ran's question.

"You should know the plan for the return, and now it's slowly starting to start. It's a bit early, but because this is the first time since last year, the company wants to do the best. Li Ran knocked on the table softly again, and then continued, "But now it's just a plan to try in advance, and the specific return time is estimated to be in the summer." ”

With the words that Li Ran said, Kim Taeyeon also nodded her head gently, and at the same time, her face was full of confusion. Because she couldn't hear it at all, what did Li Ran's words now have to do with him calling him over here. Kim Taeyeon already knew these things. So as Li Ran's nonsense came out one by one, the confusion in Kim Taeyeon's eyes increased even more.

Li Ran, who had been talking so much continuously, was also a little surprised when he suddenly looked up and saw the situation in Kim Taeyeon's eyes. Then he thought about what he had just said, and lowered his head again with some embarrassment. After taking a gentle breath of air, he spoke again, "Okay, I'm not going to go around in circles with Taeyeon." This time, I called Taeyeon to come over to me, but I actually wanted to show you this document. After saying this, Li Ran also easily found a document from the file on the left side and handed it to Kim Taeyeon in front of him.

Reaching out to take the document, Kim Taeyeon didn't open it immediately, but looked at Li Ran and asked, "Did you show it to me?"

"Your own. Li Ran was not ambiguous this time, and gave the answer directly. And he also showed a smile that surprised Kim Taeyeon, "I guess it's also the document Taeyeon you want to see the most." ”

The last words made Kim Taeyeon's eyes shine a little. Then he lowered his head and opened the document in his hand and took it out. When Kim Taeyeon had just pulled out less than half of the documents inside, after she saw some of the words on the documents, the whole person was stunned all of a sudden. After that, he reacted quickly, quickly pulled out the document, and looked at it carefully.

For the first time, Kim Taeyeon, who had simply browsed it, looked up at Li Ran again after reading the general content. The mood in his eyes was doubtful, excited, wanting to ask, and wanting to be confirmed.

However, Li Ran did not respond to Kim Taeyeon's eyes, but motioned for her to read the documents before speaking.

Kim Taeyeon quietly read the document in her hand very carefully. After 10 minutes, I put down the file, and my eyebrows showed a sense of relaxation, and my smile became a lot brighter.

"Finished reading?" Seeing Kim Taeyeon like this, Li Ran also asked. Then Kim Taeyeon, who heard the question, also quickly looked up at the other party and nodded seriously, "Well, I'm done." ”

"Let's sign it after reading it. After Li Ran heard the answer, he didn't ask anything, but took out a signature pen from the pen holder and handed it to Kim Taeyeon. Then he added, "Although this plan is over, because it will take some time for the end to end, it will take a month for the news to be announced, so there is no problem." ”

Shaking her head, Kim Taeyeon, who has known these processes for a long time, doesn't think this situation is a problem at all. Then he quickly signed his name in a few places on the document.

"Well, that's good. But even if you say it now, it doesn't matter. Do you understand what I mean when I say this?" Li Ran nodded again, took Kim Taeyeon's signed document, and checked it again. After reading it, Li Ran put the document back into the file bag, and then looked at Kim Taeyeon and smiled, "By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, it seems that I have finally found the other half who can be with you." ”

This time, Kim Taeyeon was really frightened by Li Ran's sudden words. After looking at him a few times in a daze, he thought about it before he spoke, "Hmm." The tone of the reply was a little erratic and a little worried.

"Don't worry, I'm not here to congratulate you as the head of the company. It's your own private identity, so you don't have to worry too much. As soon as he saw Kim Taeyeon's somewhat sensitive answer, Li Ran also noticed the tone of his speech, so he immediately explained with a smile. Then he continued, "And the company has no intention of talking to you, you have all reached the age of falling in love, and the company will not give you any stumbling blocks in this regard." ”

Although Li Ran's words were very good, Kim Taeyeon, who knew the company better, nodded her head, but she didn't really take these words to heart, or take them seriously. Because once you take some of the company's words or choices seriously, then your consequences are not miserable, but they will not be very happy. This lesson is something Kim Taeyeon has seen and learned over the years in this company.

"Okay, there's nothing more to do, that's all it takes to call you over today. After Li Ran saw Kim Taeyeon's trance look, he also knew that he couldn't continue, so he ended the conversation.

And Kim Taeyeon also stood up with a sigh of relief, and after bowing and saying goodbye to Li Ran, she quickly exited the office. After going outside, the first thing to do was to walk quickly to the window not far away, take a few deep breaths of the cold air, and calm down his wildly beating heart and churning blood. After all, the words that Lee said just now were terrifying, and Kim Taeyeon was scared a lot.

As for the inside of the office, after seeing Kim Tae-yeon's quick exit. Li Ran also smiled faintly, then leaned back in the chair, looked at the document on the desktop that Kim Taeyeon had just signed, and lightly tapped his fingers a few times. After half a ring, he raised his eyes to look at the door that had already closed, and opened his mouth slightly, "Lin Xi, Lin Xi, you are really fast." (To be continued.) )
