22. The home of the gentle mouth
As soon as the words fell, Father Lin slapped one hand on the dining table, and the voice frightened Mother Lin.
Lin's is a veteran group in City A, and it is an enterprise that has been based in City A for decades. Lin Qingxue is also a pampered young lady by everyone, if she and Li Yu are in love, something happens, and Father Lin will naturally turn a blind eye. But last time Li Yu's attitude said it all, it would be a shame for her to run to dedicate herself regardless of her name. Mother Lin also felt that Lin Qingxue was not sensible, but she still subconsciously favored her daughter: "Will there be any misunderstanding?"
Qingxue was seen by many people when she ran out of Li Yu's office. Lin Qingyu explained that this kind of thing happened at such a critical moment, which is really uncomfortable.
Father Lin also became more and more angry the more he thought about it, and his breathing became much rougher: "I knew that she was like this now, and I shouldn't have given birth to her in the first place." ”
Mother Lin doesn't like to listen to this, her children are all meat that fell from her mother's body, but looking at Father Lin and Lin Qingyu's current faces, she didn't dare to say too much, and only beckoned the father and son to eat. Lin Qingyu sighed, picked up the chopsticks and was just about to eat, when he saw Lin Qingxue rubbing her red and swollen eyes and slowly walking down the stairs. Father Lin hadn't seen it because of the seat, so Lin Qingyu gave Lin Qingxue a look and wanted her to go up. Lin Qingxue probably also knew that what she was doing today would make Father Lin lively, so she turned around and wanted to run upstairs, but before she could run two steps, she was hit by the bowl of porridge that Father Lin held in her hand.
The porridge flowed from Lin Qingxue's head to her clothes, and she looked very embarrassed.
She cried and got up, her already red and swollen eyes even redder, and she looked unaesthetically pleasing.
Father Lin's angry scolding voice still resounded in the Lin family's living room, and Lin Qingxue stood motionless on the stairs of the living room. Now she can only cry, and she can only cry. She was born to be a superior lady, and she has been the girlfriend of the "pride of the sky" since she was a child. No one has ever told her what she should do when the Lin family is in the current situation? No one has comforted her when she was kicked out by Li Yu, and no one has hugged her when she learned that her relationship for many years was just a shield for Li Yu's trouble. She has been scolded and criticized in the Lin family, she feels that her life is gray and there is no light, she has no way out, she thinks of death.
Maybe if he died, he wouldn't be in the situation he was in now.
Mother Lin finally couldn't help but pull the angry father Lin: "What's the use of you scolding her, why did you give birth to her back then?"
Father Lin is still regretting: "It's really lost the face of the Lin family." ”
"Alright, alright. No matter what, it's your daughter, the meat that fell from my body. Originally, Mother Lin wanted to cover this page and forget it, but she didn't expect Lin Qingxue to start replying: "Yes, I threw myself into the face of the Lin family, and you don't want to recognize me." Then you go to find your other daughters, you go to find Wen Yong!" Lin Qingxue reached out and wiped the tears on her face, and hatred burst out of her red and swollen eyes: "Don't think I don't know, my eldest brother went abroad some time ago just to find Wen Yong...... What is the result?" Lin Qingxue raised her chin slightly, unmoved by Lin Mu's hint and Lin Qingyu's frown: "As a result, people still don't want to come back." ”
Father Lin always thought that Lin Qingyu had not found Wen Hui, so he sighed at his fruitlessness some time ago for a few days before accepting the acquisition of Li's Jiahua as if he was fateful. Now when he heard Lin Qingxue's words, it was obviously not like that, he glared at Lin Qingxue angrily and shouted, "What do you mean, make it clear." ”
"Clear the snow. Lin Qingyu rarely interjected after his father spoke.
Father Lin felt that there was something wrong with this matter now, and glared at Lin Qingyu fiercely.
With just this glance, Lin Qingyu knew that he couldn't hide the matter of finding Wen Yan. But the eyes that looked at Lin Qingxue still contained expectation, and the facts of the Lin family should no longer involve Wen Yan.
"I heard my eldest brother call her to meet her. Lin Qingyu heard Lin Qingxue's rather smug voice ringing in his ears, and he subconsciously turned around and saw Father Lin's wide eyes. Lin Qingxue's words also rang out in the empty living room: "It's in this city, right here." ”
Mother Lin suddenly heard a "pop" sound in her ears, she looked at the source of the sound, and saw Lin Qingyu's head turned to the side, and the corners of her mouth were faintly red. Father Lin's hand was stretched out and ready to do it again, but was pulled by Mother Lin.
For this eldest son, she is not as pampered as Lin Qingxue's daughter, but in the end, she is a child who has high hopes and filial piety since she was a child. It was the first time she was beaten when she grew so big, and Lin's mother's distress was even worse than Lin Qingxue's beating. Seeing the look in the eldest son's eyes that suddenly settled, Mother Lin's tears fell straight down. She looked at the current situation of the family of four and shouted at Lin Qingyu: "What the hell is going on, Qingyu will tell you." ”
Lin Qingyu eased up for a long time before he suppressed the pain caused by the slap just now. He glanced around at the people in the family, from Lin Qingxue, who stood on the stairs with a smug but embarrassed face, to Lin Mu, who was anxious and pulled the angry Lin father. Thinking of his wife who was still waiting for him and the child who had no chance of being in the world, thinking of the silent gentleness of crying in front of him. It took a long time to say to Father Lin: "I found her." ”
Father Lin hurriedly said: "What's going on? Is she unwilling to come back to help the Lin family? Why are you so stupid that you don't tell me? How can you want the Lin family to be acquired by the Li family without telling me?"
"Dad, why do you think that Wen Yu will definitely help us?"
Father Lin choked when he asked this.
"A girl who was thrown abroad by our family at the age of sixteen to fend for herself, do you know how she got over the years?"
Lin Qingxue, who was standing on the stairs, opened her mouth to grab Bai: "That's her own doing, she knew at a young age that she was a man who used means to rob her sister, let alone throw it abroad, it would not be an exaggeration to kill her in the previous society." ”
Lin Qingyu didn't know what he thought, and when he heard Lin Qingxue's words, he suddenly smiled, and he looked at the other three and suddenly smiled: "Yes, you see." Our Lin family can't tolerate her so much, why does she still come to help us?"
"As long as she comes back to help us, the Lin family will naturally treat her well in the future. Father Lin spoke.
"But my father ......" Lin Qingyu said: "Wen Yu is no longer willing!"
As if seeing the only life-saving straw again, Father Lin's paranoia some time ago was revealed again: "You, you call Wen Yong, and I will tell her in person." Lin Qingyu was unwilling, he once again looked at Father Lin seriously and sincerely, and said to his father that Wen Ji has no ability to help the Lin family now, and of course she is not willing to help the Lin family anymore. But Father Lin still didn't want to believe it, he felt that some things had to be tried for himself to know. Lin Qingyu was forced to call Wen Yong again, but this time in front of everyone in the family.
The call was answered quickly.
A gentle female voice came from there: "Hello?"
Lin Qingyu was holding the phone in his hand, and was about to say something to Wen Yong when he was preempted by Father Lin: "Hey, it's me, it's Dad." ”
Wen Zhen was silent.
Father Lin looked at the small rectangular mobile phone, with a hopeful face: "Wen ...... Daughter, where are you now?"
Wen Yong still didn't speak.
Father Lin spoke up again: "Wen Yan, are you listening?"
It was quiet for a few more seconds before she heard a gentle sneer, and she seemed to have walked to another place before continuing the call: "What is the matter with Chairman Lin looking for me?"
"That's right, isn't the Lin family in a little trouble now? Dad wants you to help the Lin family. You can rest assured, as long as you help Lin's father, he will definitely not treat you badly. ”
"Then why are you going not to treat me badly?" came Wen Zhen's slightly indifferent voice.
"I ...... Father...... can let you return to the Lin family, be the second miss of the Lin family, and let you live beautifully. Father Lin has thought about this many times, and he said it very smoothly.
Wen Ji nestled in the soft sofa, listening to Lin Jinping's words, he only felt ridiculous.
"I ...... Dad can also give you shares in the company. In fact, speaking of this, Father Lin is still a little distressed. But he thinks that the most important thing now is to coax Wen Yong to contribute money to help the Lin family, as long as Wen Yong helps the Lin family, it is still him, the chairman, who has the final say.
At this time, Wen Yu heard the sound of the door opening, and she raised her body slightly to see Li Yu standing in the hallway. Li Yu naturally saw her movements, changed her shoes and went back to the bedroom to change clothes as if nothing happened. He liked the blue sweater he had changed last night and wore it tonight. Li Yu didn't change his clothes quickly, and when he thought that Wen Yu was answering the phone, he changed even more slowly. But when he walked out, the warm phone call continued.
When he sat on the sofa, he heard a man's voice coming from the earpiece, stared at the gentle mobile phone, and didn't speak.
Later, Li Yu never heard Wen Yong speak, and he estimated that Wen Yong hung up the phone after almost a minute. The woman tilted her head and leaned into his arms, and Li Yu took advantage of the situation to hug her slender body, enjoying her rare initiative to get close.
"Chairman Lin called me and asked me to help Lin come back to life. She touched the knitwear on Li Yu's body, and her face was soft.
"Would you like to?" turned out to be a rare joke.
Wen Yong didn't speak, just focused on touching the knitwear on his body, over and over again.
Li Yu smiled and stroked the woman's emaciated cheek with his other hand, he already knew that Wen Yong had gone to see Lin Qingyu on the day he missed class, and he had a bottom in his heart about the current Chairman Lin calling Wen Yong. From Chairman Lin's point of view, it is indeed understandable to ask his daughter for help before signing a contract with him, but from his point of view Li Yu, Chairman Lin's approach made him very unhappy. No, there is also Lin Qingxue.
Thinking of Lin Qingxue, Li Yu's hand stroking Wen Yan's cheek became a little heavier.
Gentle complexion, delicate skin. It's like touching fine silk, and it's very pleasant to the touch.
"Why did you come back so early today?"
Li Yu came back early today, and he didn't inform Wen Yong in advance.
When Li Yu came back some time ago, Wen Yu was basically in the time period when he had just cooked a meal, and he could change his clothes and eat on the table. Today, Wen Yu is still nesting on the sofa chasing boring TV series. Li Yu's hand stroking her cheek regained its gentle strength, as if she was brushing the kitten. Wen Yu found a more comfortable position to lean on Li Yu's lap, and at the moment when she lay down, Li Yu's deep eyes finally revealed a few smiles.
The rules and regulations, the cunning people, the dirty things that were derived from the benefit of him, all disappeared without a trace in a gentle and comfortable smile.
Li Yu couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her, because of the posture of the two, Li Yu bent very low before he reluctantly kissed Wen Yan's face, the warm breathing was entangled with each other, Wen Yu obviously felt that Li Yu's breathing was heavier when he raised his head. She thought that Li Yu would continue, but she didn't expect the man to sit up straight and rub his fingers against her lips.
After a long while, Wen Yong heard Li Yu say, "Come back and take you to dinner." ”
The two have not gone out to eat together in the past three months since they returned to country Z, and they are still a little unaccustomed to hearing Li Yu say this.
"Don't want to go?" Li Yu's fingers slid across the bridge of his nose.
Wen Zhi's fingers were playing, and he really followed Li Yu's words and said, "I don't want to go." ”
Li Yu's finger stopped on her forehead, and she asked a little puzzled: "Why?" Don't say that it's really his Li Yu's woman, it's not his woman, and there are many people who feel honored to have a meal with him.
"I like to eat at home. Wen Yan's voice was faint, as if he didn't know what a warm sentence he said.
Wen Yong just said, this is home!
Xu is the word "home" made Li Yu feel comfortable, he canceled his reservation outside, and followed behind when Wen Ji entered the kitchen to help.
Li Yu really didn't know anything about housework and the like, and when Wen Yong took the vegetables from the refrigerator, he also studied them together, but when he didn't even know the green onions with roots, Wen Yong dispelled the idea of introducing him to other dishes. But this person stood in front of her, looking at her quietly with the face of the upside-down beings, and the emotions in his eyes were serious.
The two of them went into the kitchen with what they were going to eat at night, and the gentle plan was still three dishes and one soup, one meat and two vegetables. She divides things according to the amount of ingredients. Li Yu put forward a request to add a meat dish in the evening. In fact, he felt that Wen Yan was too thin, and at some times he felt that his ribs were chrome. Wen Yong thought that he wanted to eat, so he tossed the originally divided dishes again, and the minutes of going back and forth were gone. But Li Yu occasionally helped hand a plate or something, dangling beside her.
The kitchen area of the apartment itself is not too big, and it is not crowded for two people in it, but it is definitely not loose. On the way to chop vegetables, Wen Yu asked Li Yu to wait outside, but Li Yu didn't move. When he was about to stir-fry, Wen Yu mentioned again and asked Li Yu to go out and wait, but Li Yu still didn't hear it. After the dishes were ready, Wen Yu didn't say anything, and Li Yu took the initiative to go out empty-handed.
Looking at the back of the man walking out of the kitchen, Wen Yong couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
I really didn't expect this person to look like a child.
In Li Yu's first twenty-nine years, he entered the kitchen only a handful of times a year, let alone stayed inside to watch a meal be ready.
After the two of them finished eating, it was dark. Li Yu entered the bedroom when Wen Yi was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and called Qian Tezhu before taking a bath and asked him to make an appointment for the Lin family to sign the contract tomorrow afternoon.
And make it clear that there is only one chance.
