Chapter 9: The First "Date" (1)
Lin Chen didn't sit down as he pleased, but said, "Well, that's the case, I came to return the things to you at my sister's request, and the things have been placed at your secretary's, and when the matter is done, I'll go back first." After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Please wait a minute," Xiao Lingjun called out to him, "If you don't mind, I'll also follow Lin Lu to call you second brother." Xiao Lingjun smiled.
"Ah, no, no, you can call me Lin Chen directly, I am only 2 years older than Lin Lu. According to Lin Chen's previous homework, Xiao Lingjun is 29 years old this year, and it doesn't seem appropriate to call him second brother.
However, in the understanding of Xiao Lingjun, a straight man in science, it is appropriate for his wife's elder brother to be called uncle, and it is appropriate to call him second brother.
"Second brother, I can't hide it, I really like Lin Lu. ”
Straight to the point is Xiao Lingjun's professional habit, his time is precious, every second counts, in the words of Tan Qi's exaggeration, "an average of one minute to make a decision", for a long time he has developed the habit of speaking straightforwardly.
"Uh, oh. Lin Chen didn't know what the situation of the two was, so he could only be perfunctory.
"I'm very sorry for what happened the night before yesterday, I will be responsible for Lin Lu. Please help me tell her that I will come to the door in person to propose a suitable time. I don't know what customs your house has?"
"Well, I can't be the master of this, you'd better ask my sister in person, she's a person who has a bit of a weird temper lately. Lin Chen said helplessly.
Xiao Lingjun frowned slightly, took out a check from the drawer, waved a large pen, tore off one and walked it to Lin Chen, held it in both hands and handed it to him, and said very sincerely: "This is the little heart of the future brother-in-law, please second brother smile." ”
Lin Chen glanced at it secretly, it said that a 1 was followed by many 0s, and he was dazzled to look at the Chinese characters directly, Mom, one thousand thousand! Just bribing the second uncle and brother to throw 10 million! Generous enough! However, you can't collect it, what is the difference between this and selling your sister.
"I can't accept this, I took your heart. ”
"Second brother, please rest assured, no matter whether I and Lin Lu succeed in the end or not, what I Xiao Lingjun sent out will never be taken back. Xiao Lingjun said as he put the check into Lin Chen's chest pocket.
Since President Xiao Da has said so, if you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it for nothing, "Okay, thank you, future brother-in-law, what do you command, just say that the second uncle will definitely go all out to help in the future." ”
Xiao Lingjun smiled with satisfaction and said, "Then thank you second brother, please let the second brother bring those things outside back to Lin Lu, and then help me tell me, tomorrow at 7 o'clock in the evening, I will invite her to Slev's West Restaurant for dinner, see you or leave." ”
"Well, I made a note of it, but I can't guarantee she'll go. ”
"Understood. ”
Lin Mansion, Lin Lu's room.
"Brother, why did you get the things back again?" Lin Lu asked with a frown, looking at the big bags on the ground.
"This, everyone bought it, he is a big man, and he doesn't need these girls' things, so I have to take it back. ”
"Then you take it and return it, and return the money to others. ”
"I don't know where I bought it, how to return it, and there is no receipt in it. Lin Chen rolled his eyes.
Lin Lu was worried that she had met a second Zhou Haozhe.
"Silly sister, it's not me who said, this Xiao Lingjun is really reliable, he told me that he wants to be responsible for you and propose to you, and his attitude is sincere. ”
"According to your logic, is it reliable as long as you have a little money? You don't know people at all!"
"I'm also a man, of course I understand, when he mentions you, the doting look in his eyes can't deceive people. Lin Chen said this with a touch of conscience.
Lin Lu squinted at him, "Brother, to be honest, did you collect money from others?"
"No, no, what do you charge. Lin Chen pretended to be stupid.
Lin Lu went directly to his pocket, Lin Chen was caught off guard, and sure enough, a check was found on it, on which the three big characters "Xiao Lingjun" were signed, "One million thousand! You sold me for just one million million! You are really our father's biological son! Seeing the money, the virtues are exactly the same!" Lin Lu was very angry.
Lin Chen couldn't argue, "Hey, I didn't want it originally, he insisted on stuffing it in my pocket, what can I do!"
"I don't care, you can send me the things and the check tomorrow!"
"I was a horse or a donkey in my last life, I was a porter every day, I won't go, I'm going to go by yourself!" Lin Chen's little temper also came up, and he protested angrily.
"Go by yourself, go by yourself!" You say, where is that person?"
Lin Chen rolled his eyes and said, "Tomorrow at 7 o'clock in the evening, he will go to Shrefu's West Restaurant, you can go directly to him." ”
"Really?"
"I'll lie to you, I'll write the words Lin Chen upside down! I'll call you sister in the future!
"I'll trust you for once. "Lin Chen, this guy is so unreliable, it is so easy to be bought by others, she has to go out to solve it herself.
The next night, Lin Lu drove alone and came to Slevsy's restaurant early. This is a French restaurant, located in an inconspicuous part of the imperial capital, the style is dominated by simple white, with dreamy crystal lamps, and flowers everywhere, which looks particularly elegant.
Lin Lu pushed open the glass door, and a handsome waiter in a black and white uniform greeted him with a smile, "Good evening, ma'am." ”
"Hello, is Xiao Lingjun here?"
"May I ask if you are Ms. Lin Lu?"
"Yes. ”
"Please come in, Mr. Xiao has chartered the entire restaurant tonight. ”
Lin Lu was stunned for a moment, "Okay." Then he followed the waiter in.
The violinist in a white dress and a pianist in a black suit started playing, and it felt like a small concert.
The waiter led Lin Lu to sit down at the marble table in the center of the restaurant, which had a view of the music on the terrace. Two delicate tableware were placed on the table, and a palace-style candlestick was placed in the middle.
"Ms. Lin, please wait for our chef, Mr. Pierre, to serve you later. The waiter poured a glass of lemonade for Lin Lu.
Lemonade...... Lin Lu now saw this and had a shadow in her heart, "No need, I don't drink lemonade, thank you." ”
After a while, a fat chef in a white chef's uniform and a top hat walked over with a food truck, followed by a man with glasses.
In French, the chef said, "Ms. Lin Lu, it is an honor to serve you, this is our menu, and now it is served for you." Sven Man translated it for Lin Lu in Chinese.
Lin Lu opened the menu, there was only one page, a total of ten dishes, all in French, each dish was matched with a corresponding picture, and the dishes looked very elegant.
But it seems that I am not going to come to dinner today, Lin Lu looked at the time, and at 6:55, Xiao Lingjun had not yet appeared.
