Episode 53: Acting on the spot

There were many people who clapped each other at the wine table and praised Ling Qi, and this family gathering was not exempt from vulgarity. After the two old men pasted each other's gold almost as well, they gradually shifted the topic to family members, Ling Qi listened attentively to Lin Wenfeng's experience, and made a rough assessment in his heart: 27 years old, studying abroad for 9 years, graduated from the University of Toronto, Canada with a double degree in finance and life sciences, and has obtained the nationality of the country, can't you see that this kid is still a scholarly returnee?

Ling Qi peeked at the young man beside him, Lin Wenfeng's side face was angular and hard, even if he was evaluated from a man's point of view, he was impeccable and handsome, but his face was a little more chic and vicissitudes than ordinary readers, as if he had been in society for many years. The figure hidden in the shirt can't be seen clearly, but when he first entered the door, this person's height is not much shorter than Fang Xiyuan, and with Lin Cangxi's thousands of family wealth, he is really an out-and-out rich and handsome......

It's a pity, no matter how outstanding you are, I won't be interested, not to mention that you are still my opponent's son, so it would be good if you didn't meet in the future. Thinking of this, Ling Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, the contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth had not yet dispersed, and Lin Wenfeng suddenly turned his face and grabbed the girl's smile. Ling Qi stiffened in embarrassment, quickly returned his gaze to his own dishes and chopsticks, and concentrated on processing a piece of sea cucumber, but he didn't know that the demeanor just now became the shyness of his little daughter in Lin Wenfeng's eyes, and a trace of an imperceptible evil smile flashed across the corner of his mouth.

On the superficially happy dining table, Lin Cangxi occasionally knocked on the side to find out some news about Jiu'an officialdom, and he didn't know what he was calculating. Ling Long is worthy of being an old Jianghu, and his answers are both decent and leaky, and of course some information cannot be known to people outside the system, especially a businessman from outside the city. In contrast, Gu Shuxian is not so sophisticated, especially when it comes to topics involving Lin Wenfeng, she is very enthusiastic, and she seems to have a pretty good impression of this kid.

In the blink of an eye, the banquet entered the link of only drinking and not eating, Lin Cangxi looked at the two young people opposite, and said to Lin Wenfeng: "Ah Feng, adults are probably not interested in drinking, otherwise you take Xiaoling outside to take around, don't suffocate others." ”

Lin Wenfeng was about to answer, but Gu Shuxian, who was overjoyed, took the lead and said, "Ah Qi, then you and Xiaolin go to breathe, and your mother will call you again if you have something." ”

The corners of Ling Qi's eyes twitched, she could still guess the little abacus in Gu Shuxian's heart, but the more accurate she guessed, the more entangled her heart became, Mom, are you in such a hurry to sell your daughter? Not to mention...... There's no way I'm going to accept a man, let alone a kid who might be an adversary!

Just as he was hesitating to agree, Lin Wenfeng had already pulled out a chair and stood up, put on his suit jacket and made an inviting gesture to Ling Qi: "Miss Ling Qi, do you mind going shopping with me?"

"Good ......" Ling Qi assessed the situation, if she didn't agree, she would be hypocritical, after seeing Ling Long's encouraging gaze, she made up her mind to take this opportunity to probe Lin Wenfeng's details again.

The crisp sound of the high heels on the Hua'an jade floor tiles in the hall matched with the footsteps of the high-end men's leather shoes into a wonderful rhythm. Ling Qi held a small handbag and tried her best to pretend to be a lady, thinking that if she came like this a few more times, she could consider applying for the acting department of the Imperial Capital Film and Television Academy.

Lin Wenfeng looked at the girls around him from time to time, and secretly made an evaluation in his heart: This face has its own temperament and Chen Xinyi's merits, and it is better than it in terms of figure, but I didn't expect Ling Long to have such a disaster-level daughter!

"Where do you want to go, Miss Ling Qi? There are many entertainment venues in this hotel, but I just came back from abroad, and I don't know much about your entertainment habits. Lin Wenfeng's magnetic voice was very comfortable to listen to, but there was a faint sense of self-superiority lingering.

"It's okay to call me Ling Qi, I rarely go to entertainment venues, otherwise...... Let's find a place where you can see the night view. Ling Qi was a little disgusted by this kind of self-confidence that was rich and handsome for no reason, and casually made a suggestion.

"Then I'll call Ling Qi directly! Do you want to see the night view, then let's go to a higher place, come with me." Lin Wenfeng smiled, walked to the hall and explained a few words to the waiter at the front desk, and after a while, a waiter warmly greeted him and motioned for the two to go with him, Ling Qi frowned, and followed suspiciously.

The elevator climbed all the way to the 36th floor, and the attendant led them to a luxurious double-open wooden door, swiped the lock with a card, and then respectfully said goodbye. Lin Wenfeng smiled and nodded to the waiter in thanks, gently pushed open the door, and the inside was brightly lit, it turned out to be a huge presidential suite.

This kid actually opened a room with me??! Ling Qi's eyes widened, and he didn't dare to go in at the door, and he complained in his heart that this open-minded returnee was too shameless! Lin Wenfeng took out a bottle of red wine from the bar counter next to the living room and raised his head, and found that the girl was still stunned at the door, and he was puzzled for a moment before he suddenly realized: "The balcony of this suite is especially suitable for watching the night view regardless of location and size, Ling Qi, don't misunderstand." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought too much. Ling Qi walked into the room with his head down, pretending to be sorry, secretly glad that things were not as frustrating as he thought......

"Come with me, the balcony is here. Lin Wenfeng picked up a tray with red wine and goblets in front of him to lead the way, and Ling Qi followed unhurriedly to a balcony that was at least 30 square meters in size. Lined with a faint moonlight, the delicate wrought iron patterns on the balcony railing outline a gorgeous projection, and in the distance is a field of thousands of lights, and several thin bands of light divide the city into small pieces, which is the main road that flows endlessly.

Over here...... It's a great place to see the night view. Ling Qi admired in her heart, a gust of autumn wind hit, a burst of coolness made her instinctively clench her arms, there was no constant temperature air conditioning on the balcony, and her sleeveless dress was a little thin in the autumn night.

"Is it cold? You're wearing too little. A magnetic voice sounded in his ears, but the content seemed familiar, and in an instant, Ling Qi's mind seemed to return to that ambiguous rainy night, and beside him was the man holding an umbrella and holding himself into the crook of his arm...... When he came back to his senses, he already had an extra blazer on his body, but next to him was Lin Wenfeng, who had just poured red wine.

“…… Thank you. I have to admit that the chill of late autumn was immediately dispelled after putting on the coat, and the girl thanked him politely, while leaning on the smooth railing and looking into the distance. The autumn wind lifted her hair, revealing a delicate side face and a fair and delicate neck, and although the perfect curves were hidden in the wide suit, the charming long legs wrapped in stockings could not be hidden.

Lin Wenfeng put away a somewhat playful smile and quietly admired the girl beside him. He has a romantic nature, and he can be called a woman who has read countless women, and even played with a charming face like Chen Xinyi, but Ling Qi has a confusing temperament that is completely different from the women he has seen before. I don't know why, the girl's silhouette looks a little clear and arrogant, is she really just an official lady who is less than 20 years old?

Before going to the banquet, Lin Wenfeng had already learned some stories about this girl from Lin Cangxi, of course, including the inexplicable relationship between her and Fang Xiyuan. At this moment, he actually felt a little jealous of the other party's fate, jealous of how he could win such a special heart.

The gorgeous night view made Ling Qi feel very good, she turned her head, and found that Lin Wenfeng was staring at her with ambiguous eyes, and she was suddenly a little displeased, and casually pulled up a topic: "What kind of wine did you pour it, can you drink it?"

Lin Wenfeng's eyes jumped, and he quickly replied: "Oh, this is the Grand Lafite of Bordeaux, France, almost 15 years old, and the red wine needs to soften the tannins to make it easier to eat after opening, so it will take more than ten minutes to wait." ”

Scared, 15-year-old genuine Lafite? Ling Qi sighed in his heart, this is not the 82-year-old fake wine mentioned in the paragraph, but the real thing. If you don't talk about anything that costs tens of thousands of yuan, you can only drink two sips at most, and the rest will not be wasted......

"I heard Mr. Lin say, you only went to Canada to study at the age of 18?"

"Yes, my dad didn't like the way of education in China, so he simply sent me abroad. ”

"So you've been living alone for so long?"

"No, my mom went with me at first, but she died of a sudden illness when I was 23 years old. ”

"I'm sorry ......"

"It's okay, life and death are fateful. Lin Wenfeng's face rarely showed some faint sadness, it seems that his mother is the constant sustenance in his heart.

Ling Qi thought quickly about the timeline for a moment, and suddenly found a loophole: "You have been studying until now and only come back?Does it take that long to study for your undergraduate studies?"

Lin Wenfeng obviously didn't expect this question, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I also studied for a master's degree in finance later, so I've read it until now." ”

"I see, your education is so high, much better than me. The University of Toronto can be called the top university in Canada!" Ling Qi's knowledge about psychology this semester was not in vain, she keenly judged that what she just said was a lie through the changes in Lin Wenfeng's tone and body: The double degree he studied for his undergraduate degree is true, and it is estimated that he should have completed his studies almost 3 to 4 years ago, so what did he do in Canada during the gap period of these years?

"It's over, you're still young, and you still have a chance to study for a master's degree or even a doctorate in the future. ”

"I don't like to read too many books either, aren't those female doctors still called Exterminators?" Ling Qi replied with a smile, quietly hiding his mood swings just now.

"No, no, no, a beauty like you, even if she reads a doctorate, she should be Zhou Zhiruo, how can she be an exterminator?" Lin Wenfeng also took the opportunity to praise Ling Qi once, this fake foreign devil has really read some Chinese culture. "By the way, I heard that Ling Qi is good at Latin dance, and I happen to have learned some fur in Canada, how about I invite you to dance with me when I have time?"

Latin dance? Ling Qi frowned: When will I be good at this thing? Could it be that this body's original specialty? Eighty percent of it is my mother who betrayed herself! Dancing with him is absolutely unacceptable, and she will definitely be exposed when the time comes! Thinking of this, she didn't know how to answer. Just as there was a dull ringtone of music in his handbag, Ling Qi's mobile phone rang.

Ling Qi whispered "I'm sorry", and hurriedly took out her mobile phone, the name of the person on the screen surprised her, it was actually Fang Xiyuan calling! Ling Qi hesitated, and swept his eyes towards Lin Wenfeng, the man happened to look at the night view of the city, and did not pay attention to the girl's phone at all. After thinking about it repeatedly, Ling Qi still decided to hang up this inopportune call.

"Ling Qi, the wine is almost over, I am honored to be able to watch the night scene with a beauty like you today, I would like to give you a glass!" Lin Wenfeng motioned for Ling Qi to pick up the goblet, and the two glasses collided and made a pleasant sound. Ling Qi silently let the red liquor flow into her mouth, it was indeed mellow and smooth, but she always felt that there was a smell of blood lingering in the air, maybe a storm was coming.
