Chapter 144: It happened to be Christmas Eve

After Leng Yan and Ye Zilin returned to the apartment together, Ye Zilin cooked and fried steak and prepared red wine.

Sitting at the long dining table, under the reflection of crystal lamps, the two sat facing each other, "Yan, how is it? Does it taste okay?" Ye Zilin watched him eat a bite of steak.

"Well, it's tender and juicy, and your steak is still so well fried. Leng Yan said with a smile, picked up the goblet on the side, and took a sip.

"I'm afraid I'm not doing well! I haven't done it in a long time. Ye Zilin is actually confident, in order to make Leng Yan happy, she deliberately went to learn, her steak frying skills are definitely comparable to the senior chefs of five-star hotels.

"Yan, if you like it, I'll make it for you often, okay?" As long as he is happy and asks her to do it every day, she is willing.

Leng Yan put down the wine glass in his hand and shook his head, "You don't have to work so hard, if you want to eat, we can go to the restaurant to eat." ”

He looked at the dining table, whether it was in terms of color or taste, it was the best, but he didn't have any appetite, he missed Jiang Ruoxi's home-cooked food every time he changed his tricks, it was very warm and homely.

"Yan, why don't you eat it?" Ye Zilin asked when she saw that he was just looking at the steak in a daze.

"Nothing. Leng Yan lightly opened her thin lips and said with a smile.

Ye Zilin saw that he was absent-minded, but she didn't say anything, still smiling and cutting the steak for him.

Leng Yan sat in front of the computer, and suddenly the mobile phone rang, he looked at the number on it, and picked it up without hesitation, "Boss, I didn't bother you, right?" Pang Jie's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Excuse me, you still called, didn't you?" Leng Yan frowned slightly, did he have to talk so much nonsense every time he called?

"Uh, ahem, too. Pang Jie cleared his throat, "Boss, I'm here to report to you about my sister-in-law." ”

"What's the situation, say it quickly, don't talk so much nonsense. Leng Yan said angrily, it seems that he is not in the country during this time, and Pang Jie's life must be too chic.

"Boss, you're really nervous sister-in-law, when do you plan to come back?" Pang Jie circled a few times, but still didn't get to the point.

Leng Yan paused, yes! He should go back.

"Boss, boss?" Pang Jie called out to him without hearing an answer.

Say. Leng Yan said lightly, he had already promised Ye Zilin to stay here for Christmas and then go back, just wait and go back!

"Actually, my sister-in-law is the same as usual, nothing special, except for going to school, she stays in the apartment and doesn't go anywhere. Oh no, I went to the orphanage twice over the weekend. Pang Jie said slowly.

Did she go to the orphanage? Leng Yan raised the corners of her lips lightly, no wonder, she promised the children last time that she would go to see them again, but she didn't expect to go so soon.

"Haven't you been to other places?" Leng Yan asked again, didn't she go back to Jiang's house, and didn't she go back to Leng's house?

"Yes, she went to Lin's house once. Pang Jie should be on the other end of the phone, and he can imagine what Leng Yan's expression will be like.

As soon as Leng Yan heard the Lin family, anger rose from the bottom of her heart, "What? she actually went to the Lin family!"

It seems that Lin Zhanpeng still wants Jiang Ruoxi to be his granddaughter-in-law!

"Yes, and the eldest young master of the Lin family personally drove her back. Pang Jie smiled and said, "Boss, are you jealous?"

"You're troubled. Leng Yan retracted his thoughts, "If you don't have anything else to say, just hang up!"

"Boss, do you miss your sister-in-law? You have a photo in your mailbox, you can look at it casually. Pang Jie has been following Jiang Ruoxi almost all this time, and he has really taken a lot of photos.

To tell the truth, how could the boss not like a beautiful and lovely woman like her sister-in-law!

"Alright, hang up. Leng Yan was about to hang up.

"Boss, there's one more thing, you don't know when your sister-in-law's birthday is, right?" Pang Jie wanted to know, how could he, the boss, be so careful?

Leng Yan was stunned for a moment, "When?" Is her birthday coming soon? But what does her birthday have to do with him?

But he still wanted to know.

"December 24th. Pang Jie smiled, "It just happened to be Christmas Eve!"

"Got it. How's going on at the company?" Leng Yan didn't hang up the phone, but shifted the topic to business.

"Boss, you can rest assured, with me, how can there be anything?" Pang Jie said confidently.

Leng Yan nodded, "Well, I know." ”

"Well, boss, I've reported everything that should be reported, tomorrow, can I have a day off?" Pang Jie asked a little pitifully.

"Hmm. Leng Yan had already clicked into the mailbox and saw the unread email, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.

Hung up the phone, moved her fingers slightly, flipped through one photo, each one, with a slight smile on her face, in the orphanage she played with the children, running and playing games on the green grass.

Walking alone on the college road, in the cold wind, rubbing her hands, breathing, she made the smile on his face deepen, obviously afraid of the cold, it turned out that she was reckless in front of him.

The Porsche in the garage didn't drive, and he had to walk to school every day, Jiang Ruoxi really made him look at it differently!

Ye Zilin walked out with a cup of coffee, and saw the smile on Leng Yan's face, what made him have such a smile?

"Yan?" Ye Zilin called him softly.

"Why haven't you rested yet?" Leng Yan closed the mailbox and turned his head to look at Ye Zilin.

Ye Zilin sat down beside him, "You're still busy, how can I rest?" I helped you make a cup of coffee. ”

Leng Yan took the coffee cup and took a sip, the coffee brewed by Ye Zilin, who was once nostalgic, once disliked Jiang Ruoxi's three-in-one instant coffee.

"Yan, it's snowing outside again!" Ye Zilin looked out the window, looking at the snowflakes falling down, and her mood became bad.

"Well, if you don't like to see snow, close the curtains. Leng Yan knew that Ye Zilin hated snow because she was abandoned in the orphanage on a snowy day.

Ye Zilin walked to the window, glanced at the white outside with some disgust, closed the curtains, and returned to Leng Yan's side to sit down.

Leng Yan just took her into his arms and didn't speak.

"I wonder if there is any snow in China?" Ye Zilin said with a slight sigh.

There have been several snowfalls in the United States, and it must have fallen in the country.

"Do you want to go back?" Leng Yan just looked at the tightly drawn curtains and asked lightly.

Ye Zilin shook her head, "No, don't, let's spend Christmas here together and then go back." ”

She didn't want to miss this lively atmosphere, she wanted to spend it with Leng Yan, and returning to China would only arouse her sad past.
