The bottom line
She was too arrogant, even Qin Yao and Nie Zheng, who were familiar with her, were already a little dazed at this time, not to mention the people around her who didn't know her. Visit wèn:. No one spoke for a while, and everyone's eyes fell on the young 'girl' who was wearing a pink 'color' shirt, rolling up her sleeves, and looking a little lazy.
Until suddenly a hand reached over, and the target went straight to the bottle of wine in Ling Xiao's hand.
Ling Xiao flipped his hand and dodged the hand lightly, and then turned his head to see the burly big boy frowning at him.
Seeing her look sideways, a pair of narrow and charming phoenix eyes became more and more striking because of the wine, and the boy almost didn't dare to look at it anymore, lowered his head and said, "You've drunk so much, don't drink it, I'll drink it for my senior brother." β
He is not handsome, but his facial features are upright, his expression is open, and it looks easy to make people feel good.
Ling Xiao smiled, and before he could speak, suddenly another figure squeezed over and stood between the two of them, and then put a hand on his shoulder.
"Let her drink, she's measured." Ye Lin patted her shoulder with one hand, and looked down at her as he spoke, his tone was unprecedentedly gentle, "If you don't want to drink it, just say it, I'll do it for you." β
Ye Lin couldn't do it - the 'girl' child just got to her, anyway, he had already gotten used to it, and now he was resigned to his fate. But he just doesn't understand, it's just a short day, why are there boys who are worried about her? Don't think he didn't see it, some people's eyes secretly drifted to his 'girlfriend' friend at every turn.
Ye Lin only said two sentences, but whether it was the first sentence "She is measured" or the second sentence "If you don't want to drink, just say it", there was a natural familiarity and casualness between the tone and movements, which was obviously a way that only extremely close people would have. The tall boy glanced at the two of them, lowered his head, but fell silent and stopped talking.
Ling Xiao glanced at Ye Lin with a smile, and when she saw him glaring at herself fiercely, she was not angry, she stretched out an arm on Ye Lin's shoulder with a smile, and simply 'handed' all the weight of her body to him, leaned on him and took another sip of wine, and then lazily raised the wine bottle, raised her eyebrows and gestured slightly to the opposite side.
She didn't speak, but it was only with some careless looks, and her movements became more and more mocking, and in the eyes of the other party, it was as if she was "I don't even bother to talk to you".
Several boys have some competitive factors in their bones, otherwise they would not have to make a fuss to pour wine to the groom at this time, at this time, when they saw the little girl opposite, they looked down on the face, and immediately surged up silently with the tumbling wine, and they rolled up their sleeves and poured a large glass of liquor, and poured it with their heads up. Read the full text of the latest chapter.
Ling Xiao looked down at his watch, snorted softly, and then hooked Ye Lin's shoulder with one hand and leaned on him to drink with his head up.
It's not too early, so let's leave more time for the young couple to eat something to rest and rest, and 'hole' the room and 'flower' candles with peace of mind.
Thinking like this in his heart, it didn't take long for Ling Xiao to put down a table of men who were clamoring for wine. Seeing that several men were already lying on the table, and they were not even very conscious, the young 'woman' weighed the empty wine bottle that had been drunk and put it on the table, and then dusted off the hem of her shirt casually. After all, her fair face was still dyed red by wine, and her phoenix eyes seemed to be brighter and more intimidating than usual.
Qin Yao was already arranging to go to the upstairs hotel for those who drank high and couldn't go back to the upstairs hotel to open a few rooms for one night.
Ye Lin half-hugged Ling Xiao, his eyes swept over the burly boy on the side, intentionally or unintentionally, and nodded slightly to a couple of newcomers: "It's almost over, let's go back first." β
After the newlyweds toast, the guests at the table can already leave the table one after another, and the wedding banquet has come to an end.
The newlywed couple both nodded, and Nie Zheng glanced at Ling Xiao again, and thanked her solemnly: "Thank you." β
Ling Xiao didn't speak, patted him on the shoulder, and pulled Ye Lin to leave.
Because he knew that he was going to drink, Ye Lin didn't drive over. The two walked out of the hotel hand in hand, and were blown by the wind that was still a little steep in the early 'spring' night, and the already not too strong wine suddenly dispersed a lot.
The two stood at the intersection waiting for a taxi, Ye Lin still felt sour when he thought about it, and pretended to ask her casually: "Who is the one who said he wanted to help you drink?" β
He turned his face slightly, trying his best to make a calm and breezy appearance, not caring at all, but Ling Xiao smiled so much that he seemed to step on the air, especially leaning on his arms unreservedly, hooking his neck and about to 'kiss' him:
"Nobody, it's not as good-looking as you anyway."
Ye Lin thought about the person's facial features that were indeed not very outstanding, and thought about Ling Xiao's repeated comments on his appearance that were "pleasing to the eye", and suddenly felt happy again, and his face was slightly pale.
Ling Xiao smiled even more happily, and his 'lips' got closer and closer to him: "I only like Brother Ye Lin......"
Her smile was soft, and her bite was deliberately soft and delicate. Ye Lin only felt that most of his bones were crisp by the call of "Brother Ye Lin", and all that was left in his mind was the 'lips' that were getting closer and closer, slightly opening and closing, where could he remember what "wild man"?
Seeing his 'girlfriend' smile becoming more and more charming, Ye Ershao stared at her directly, hoping that she would get closer and get closer to her. And the two soft 'lip' flaps were indeed as he thought, getting closer and closer, until they were almost pressed on their own 'lips', and there was no longer any distance.
Then she stopped suddenly.
Not only did he stop, but even the smile in his eyes suddenly slowly subsided. Only the curvature of the 'lips' remains, but it seems to have lost its temperature and sweetness all of a sudden.
She withdrew her hand abruptly - the distance that suddenly opened up made Ye Lin almost involuntarily draw a thick sense of loss in her heart, but she soon straightened up.
Ling Xiao flipped his hand, and a whistling sound suddenly sounded in the night, and almost at the same moment, there was a scream behind the grass and the muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Ye Lin turned his head to see that a man was clutching his wrists and fell to the ground, with a camera next to him. Something rolled on the ground a few times, Ye Lin looked at it, only to find that it was a chocolate.
ββIt was the wedding candy just now, which Ling Xiao originally held in his hand and planned to eat it after getting into a taxi.
Ye Lin and Ling Xiao glanced at each other and walked to the grass unhurriedly.
The man was still lying on the ground, clutching his wrists and looking pained.
Ling Xiao hooked the corners of his mouth: "Broken hand?" β
"I'll answer when I've thought about it." After asking a sentence, seeing that this person seemed to want to nod, the young 'girl' laughed and added lightly.
Whether she was standing or her look, she was a little careless, and even a little lazy, but at that moment, the sense of oppression that rushed almost overwhelmed people and didn't even dare to breathe.
I don't know how long it took, but the man on the ground finally arrived, and it seemed that the little girl suddenly collected the momentum, and he almost crawled up from the ground and shook his head again and again:
"It's, it's okay."
Ling Xiao felt reluctantly satisfied, and turned his head to look at Ye Lin.
Ye Lin bent down, picked up the camera and looked at it. The fall just now, the lens was a little broken, but the photos taken before can still be seen, in fact, there is only one, that is, the photo of the two just standing at the intersection and about to hug and kiss.
Presumably, it was because of this photo that Ling Xiao noticed it all of a sudden.
Ye Lin took off the memory card and returned the camera to him.
The man reached out and took it. Without his other hand to cover, Ye Lin saw his wrist at a glance, which was already high and red and swollen.
The man seemed to have been frightened just now, and at this time, he saw Ye Lin frowning slightly and looking at himself, for fear that he would still doubt himself, so he hurriedly explained in a trembling voice: "I also just came over, and I took this one!" β
Ye Lin didn't speak, but he didn't doubt this in his heart - if he could follow Ling Xiao and not be discovered by her, I am afraid that there is no zΓ i in this era.
Ling Xiao didn't know if he heard it, and at this time, he was looking down at the chocolate on the ground, and his expression was very regretful and distressed. Ye Lin 'rubbed' the top of her head, turned his head to look at the man again, and looked up and down.
This man is extremely unobtrusive and has sneaky movements. Ye Lin looked in the direction where he secretly glanced from time to time, and saw a car parked not far away, I am afraid that this person drove it, and at first glance, he came prepared, and the purpose was to shoot the two of them. Although Ling Xiao is now a celebrity, he is also famous in the cultural circle, and he seems to be a leader of the younger generation. But after all, the cultural circle is relatively niche, and her popularity in the public eye has slowly faded recently, with Ling Xiao's current weight, it is not enough to cause the paparazzi to follow and 'steal' the photo, and it is quite possible after three or five years.
Prepared, purposeful, well-equipped and professional...... Ye Lin glanced at this person's clothes and camera, and after ruling out the memory, I am afraid there is only one possibility.
'Private' detectives.
On the man's clear face, his expression suddenly sank, and the night illuminated his eyes.
The man winced involuntarily.
"He really wanted to destroy me." Ye Lin lowered his eyes slightly, and his face was calm, as if he was stating something inconsequential.
Ling Xiao frowned.
After all, she still doesn't know much about the power of public opinion on the Internet and the media nowadays, and she hasn't realized what a big hat it is to "cohabit" with a minor once it spreads - Ling Xiao's current identity is an orphan, helpless, and without anything, living with him, you can imagine what it will be distorted.
Raising this hat must not be able to escape, a betrayal-body, a 'girl' student who 'plays' with minors - whether it is Ling Xiao or Ye Lin, I am afraid that they will have to experience the pressure of public opinion themselves.
Ruining him is not good for the Ye family, his father will not hire a 'private' detective to do this kind of thing but give people a handle, he knows that he is with Ling Xiao, and there is no need for people to follow him and verify it. So......
"Go back and tell your employer," Ye Lin spoke again, his eyes were heavy and his tone was calm in the night, "Don't challenge my bottom line again." β
"I didn't bother with him before, not because I was afraid of him, but because I didn't think it was necessary. But now," he said, pausing slightly, and pointing at Ling Xiao, "Ling Xiao is my bottom line. β
