Chapter 86: Failed Conversations
Ye Lin lowered her eyes and thought for a while, "Let him in." ”
Chu Zhongtian was wearing a dark gray suit and walked over with a smile, "Xiao Lin, how are you doing?"
It seems that since Ye Lin left the Chu family, Chu Zhongtian has become a lot older in an instant, most of his hair has turned gray, and his waist is no longer as straight as before.
It's hard for him to have such a son, who has achieved nothing, only knows how to gnaw at the old.
Seeing such a hypocritical face of his, didn't he remember how he treated her last time when he was in prison? Now that he has asked for her, it is as if he has changed his face, and this kind of Chu Zhongtian makes Ye Lin feel a little sick to his stomach.
Putting down the knife and fork in her hand, Ye Lin picked up a tissue and wiped her mouth, "If you have something to say, let's talk straight." ”
Seeing Ye Lin being so cold to him, Chu Zhongtian had already expected it, after all, the Chu family was indeed sorry for her, and it also brought her a lot of painful memories.
"Xiao Lin, I did come to you for something this time. He seemed a little nervous, as if the topic was moving too fast, and he didn't know what words to use to cut into.
Ye Lin clasped her shoulders with her hands, nodded the chair in front of her with her chin, motioned for Chu Zhongtian to sit down and said, "You say." ”
He also sat down unceremoniously and combed his somewhat gray hair with his hands, "That's the case, I came this time to solemnly invite you back to work in the Chu Group." ”
Ye Lin's hand that was about to drink milk was stunned for a moment, stopped in mid-air, and then picked up the cup and snorted coldly.
"I still call you uncle, but the Chu family was founded by you, even if you don't do it, your son Chu Hengcheng should take over. It has nothing to do with me, I'm afraid. ”
Chu Zhongtian frowned, "Having said that, but you know those old customers of our group, they trust you too much, and as soon as they heard that you were gone, they couldn't bear it, saying that they didn't want to renew the contract." ”
He moved the chair closer to Ye Lin, and there was a hint of begging in his cloudy old eyes, "Xiao Lin, you know the situation of the Chu family, if these old customers are gone, then the Chu family, I'm afraid it really won't be able to hold on." ”
Yelene lowered her head from him, staring at the leftover piece of whole-wheat bread on the table.
She really couldn't see Chu Zhongtian like this, no matter how ruthless she was, no matter how much she hated what the Chu family had done to her, but after all, the Chu family had also fed and drunk her for so many years.
Even before she found out that Chu Hengcheng was cheating, Chu Zhongtian still raised her as his own daughter, but in this way, everything changed.
Looking at the color in Chu Zhongtian's cloudy eyes, Ye Lin bit her lip and told herself to be firm in her beliefs, and it would be impossible to be soft-hearted!
Deliberately avoiding Chu Zhongtian's request, Ye Lin changed her words, "Uncle, I also have something I want to ask you." ”
Seeing that Ye Lin didn't reject him immediately, but provoked something else, Chu Zhongtian thought that this was a joke, so he agreed, "You say, I must tell you everything I know." ”
Taking a deep breath, Ye Lin opened her mouth and said, "Why was I adopted by your Chu family in the first place?"
Chu Zhongtian didn't expect the question to be so sharp and straightforward, his face changed instantly, and Ye Lin took this small change into his eyes and remained silent.
"This ...... Xiao Lin, didn't I already tell you before?"
Ye Lin hooked the corners of her mouth, it was really as she expected, he refused to say.
"How much do you know about my parents' plane crash?"
"Under what circumstances was I adopted by you?Do you know my parents?" Ye Lin stared at Chu Zhongtian's eyes motionlessly, constantly asking him questions.
"It's been too long, and I'm ......" Chu Zhongtian listened to the series of questions, his expression became more and more unnatural, and his eyes were a little evasive.
"You can't remember clearly, can you?" Ye Lin looked at Chu Zhongtian's series of changes with cold eyes, and scolded in her heart.
"Yes, people are old, how can they remember the events of nearly thirty years ago so clearly. Fine beads of sweat oozed from Chu Zhongtian's forehead, and he took out a handkerchief to wipe it gently.
Ye Lin snorted coldly in his heart, it seemed that he was unwilling to tell the truth.
"I really can't help with your affairs, I won't go back to the Chu clan again, please go back. Ye Lin lowered her head and continued to drink the remaining half cup of milk in front of her, her eyes no longer looking at Chu Zhongtian.
In fact, Ye Lin originally wanted to use her bargaining chips to help the Chu clan survive this crisis to contain Chu Zhongtian and hope that he would tell the truth, but no matter what, it was impossible for her to return to the Chu clan to work again.
It's just that I didn't expect that Chu Zhongtian wouldn't disclose any information to her, and it seems that this road won't work.
"Xiao Lin, are you just watching the Chu clan lose like this?" Chu Zhongtian stood up and tried to shake Ye Lin's heart one last time.
But he failed.
"Chu, it has nothing to do with me. Ye Lin threw down one last sentence, drank all the milk in the cup, and turned to go upstairs.
Chu Zhongtian sighed deeply behind him, looked sad, and turned to leave.
……
Chu Zhongtian returned home angrily, and saw Chu Hengcheng playing computer games on the side, and he was angry, and it was a slap to go up.
With a "snap", Chu Hengcheng's beaten face suddenly hurt hotly, "What are you doing, Dad?!"
Chu Zhongtian let out a cold snort from his nostrils, pinched Chu Hengcheng's collar and lifted it up, and looked at him with hatred.
"Do you still know how to play?! The family is about to collapse, do you know it?! You are still not my son of Chu Zhongtian?!"
"Let me tell you, now that our Chu clan has become like this, it is all caused by you! If you hadn't done those inconsistencies in the first place, Ye Lin would not have left! The Chu clan would not have fallen into such a situation!"
Chu Zhongtian went crazy, pushed Chu Hengcheng against the wall, and he was panting on the side.
"Dad, you can't blame me for everything, how much of the reason why the Chu family became like this is because of the Gu Yanshen that Ye Lin was looking for?! If he hadn't stopped me at that time, I would have been on the board of directors a long time ago!"
Chu Hengcheng was indignant, and he wholeheartedly believed that the Chu clan was caused by Gu Yanshen today, but he never thought that it was precisely because of his lack of learning and unskilled skills that it was an important reason for the ruin of the Chu clan.
"At your level, what if you enter?! Who will obey you! It's not that Dad said you, you're such a big person, why don't you learn anything useful?"
I wanted to reach out and slap Chu Hengcheng again, but the hand he raised still fell, after all, he was his only son, and he couldn't say anything.
In the final analysis, Chu Hengcheng has not learned and has no skills for so many years, most of the reasons are that Chu Zhongtian is used to it, he has been pampered since he was a child, and he has never suffered at all.
