Chapter 623: A Call to My Father
Marble floors, white coffee tables, white desks, several large leather sofas, and a large floor-to-ceiling window on the east wall, the sunlight shines in, making the whole space extraordinarily bright. There is also a unicorn made of jade on the desk. It is about a foot tall and glows softly throughout in the sun, making it not ordinary at first glance. This is an antique that Effie bought for hundreds of thousands of dollars in the antique market, for the purpose of decorating. But it is precisely because of this decoration that the whole office looks more magnificent, which undoubtedly plays the role of the finishing touch.
Lin Yi had already been to his office twice before going on a mission, but this time he came in, and he still had a surprising feeling.
He sat on the leather chair of his desk, thinking about the business negotiations tomorrow, and then thought of something, took out paper and pen from the drawer, and wrote two names, Liang Kuan and Zhang Han. And redraw a circle.
Immediately turned on the computer and went on the Internet for a while, Lin Yi searched for the more famous security service companies in the country, opened their official websites, looked at their company start-up, corporate culture, and learned their methods of managing the company.
In the end, Lin Yi took out his mobile phone again, pressed a string of phone numbers in the dialer, stayed on it and didn't dial it for a long time, and only after a long time did he take a deep breath and press the dial button.
After a while, the phone was connected, and it was a middle-aged man's slightly deep voice: "Excuse me, which one?" ”
In an instant, Lin Yi's eyes were a little red, he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and wanted to speak, but his throat was a little choked, and he worked hard for a long time before he said three words: "Dad, it's me." ”
The other end of the phone immediately went silent, and it wasn't until a long time later that he said excitedly: "Okay, it's okay, it's okay, I finally know how to call home." ”
This person is Lin Yi's father, Lin Zhen.
Lin Yi took a deep breath and tried to calm the feelings in his heart, and then said: "Dad, I'm really sorry, I didn't call you until now, it's me who is not filial." ”
Lin Zhen suddenly laughed: "Silly boy, what are you talking about." Say, what's the matter, did you encounter any financial difficulties, there was still a lot of money left when you sold the hospital defense chief, and I will call you how much you are missing. ”
Lin Yi was speechless with emotion. I only hate myself for being afraid that calling my family will recall many unhappy things in the past, and now I really regret it. He didn't think about it from the perspective of his family, wishful thinking that calling his family less would alleviate the pain in his heart, but he didn't know that not calling made his family worry all the time.
"Dad, it's not about money. I'm doing well in the field now, you don't have to worry about it, I can go back in more than two years. Lin Yi said.
Lin Zhen sighed with emotion: "Okay, the child has grown up and understands everything." ”
"Dad, how's my mom?" Lin Yi asked.
Lin Zhen understood what his son meant, and said with a slight smile: "It has been preserved very well, and now it has been transferred to the cold room on the ground floor of the house." We redecorated the house and made an underground cold room to store your mother's body and your friend named Hu Yibiao. Every time I see your mother, I think of you, I don't know how you can live in the field, now you call back, we don't have to worry about it anymore. But about your mother, I also want to open it, people can't be resurrected after death, don't force things that can't come reluctantly, just let it be. I'm content to just keep looking at your mother's corpse like this. ”
"No, Dad. I won't give up, this is my belief, I will definitely save my mother. Lin Yi's eyes flashed with an extremely determined look. This is his goal, and it is also the greatest wish in his life, and he will never give up.
Lin Zhen sighed: "Okay then." Whatever you want, wait until a while later, and I guess you'll want to open it. There is no longevity pill in the world, and even if there is an immortal pill, it is not something that we ordinary people can refine. ”
Lin Yi didn't want to discuss this topic, so he said, "Dad, don't mention it." How about grandpa and sister? ”
"Your grandfather is very strong, usually walking, doing tai chi, teasing birds, and sometimes helping me take care of my small clinic. and your sister Lin Shan, who has been admitted to a junior college in this city, called Yanjing Institute of Science and Technology, and is in the same school as Tang's daughter Xiaoya. They live very well and have a good life, but they think of you from time to time. Why don't you give them a call. ”
Lin Yi said, "Okay." Is grandpa by your side? ”
"I'm at the clinic, and your grandfather is probably wandering around the flower and bird market now."
Lin Yi took a breath and said, "Actually, I have a very important thing I want to tell you and grandpa. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Recently I met an underwater monster in a city that looked like a dragon, with poisonous blood on its body and horns on its head. I killed the monster and removed the horns from its head to show you and grandpa if it was the so-called dragon horns. Lin Yi finally said the purpose of this call.
Lin Zhen was shocked when he heard it: "Is there really a dragon in the world?" But then he thought of Lin Yi's original master Huang Batian, so he was not so surprised, and said: "You send a photo first, let me and your grandfather see, your grandfather doesn't have a phone on him, we'll call you back at night." ”
"Okay."
"By the way, where are you now, you can't go home, but the state doesn't stipulate that we are not allowed to see you!" Lin Zhen said.
Lin Yi couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I'll send you the address later." ”
"Hmm. Call when the time comes. ”
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yi's mood felt extremely comfortable. In the past, he didn't dare to face the pain and fear in his heart, and always tried to hide these things, so when he first came to this city, he changed his phone number. But after this phone call, his heart suddenly brightened. The parting of life and death is not so terrible, as long as you still have a goal and faith, you will definitely be able to create a miracle!
Lin Yi took out the dragon horn from the Qiankun bag, took a photo and sent it to Lin Zhen's mobile phone. He wasn't sure if his grandfather recognized it or not, but it was better to look at it than not to see it. As soon as the dragon horns were put away again, the phone rang, but it was not Lin Zhen's call, but Effie called.
Lin Yi looked at the time, but he didn't expect that it was already half past eleven before he knew it, and he immediately connected the phone.
"Mr. Lin, where are you?" Effie's voice rang on the other end of the line.
"Oh, I'm in my own office."
Effie was stunned: "You didn't leave?" ”
Lin Yi joked: "Wait until you invite me to dinner!" ”
"That's right, I'm calling now to invite you to dinner, see you downstairs."
Lin Yi went downstairs, and Zhong Wei shouted excitedly: "Mr. Lin is good." ”
Lin Yi nodded, and when he saw Effie standing at the gate waiting, he immediately walked over.
The two walked side by side to the car at the door. Effie said, "I won't drive my own car, you will send me back later." ”
"No problem."
The two got into Lin Yi's car, and then the car drove away.
Zhong Wei at the front desk saw Lin Yi and Effie go out in pairs, and she was about to die. I didn't expect Mr. Ai to start so quickly, and there will be one less diamond king in the world from now on! However, she couldn't raise the slightest confidence to refute with Effie, as early as the first day she came to the company, she had heard that Effie was a senior elite from the top 500 companies in the country, with an annual salary of more than one million, and she was just a little girl at the front desk, what to compete with others?
Zhong Wei sat down dejectedly, and her heart was so depressed that she didn't hear someone calling her to go to dinner with her.
Zhao Yunfei was a little surprised, isn't this little girl usually quite optimistic and cheerful, and she is still very happy in the morning, why did she change her person just after noon?
He couldn't help but look at the table again: "Beauty, it's time to eat." ”
"Huh?" Only then did Zhong Wei react, looked up and saw that it was Zhao Yunfei, and immediately smiled awkwardly: "Manager Zhao is good." ”
"It's time for dinner, let's go eat together." Zhao Yunfei said.
"Okay." Zhong Wei nodded, still looking unrelenting.
The two walked to the cafeteria together, and Zhong Wei suddenly asked, "Manager Zhao, are Mr. Ai and Lin Yi already in love?" ”
Zhao Yunfei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Are you kidding, how can the two of them be together?" ”
"However, I just saw Assistant Ai get into Mr. Lin's car, and the two of them went to the city together." Zhong Wei said aggrievedly.
Zhao Yunfei shook his head: "Absolutely impossible, maybe Effie's car is out of gas, just a ride with Mr. Lin." In short, there is absolutely no such possibility, so don't think about it. ”
"Really?"
"Cooked!" Zhao Yunfei glared at her, "It's time to the cafeteria, eat." ”
He walked into the cafeteria, and happened to see that Lei Dahu and Qu Weichao had already eaten together, and hurriedly walked over.
Zhong Wei's originally lost heart suddenly became active again, although she didn't know why Zhao Yunfei was so sure, but hearing what he said just now, Zhong Wei was still very happy in her heart.
She smiled and walked to the table of the two girls in the administration department.
……
Effie took Lin Yi to the Korean restaurant where she dined last time.
The two found a quiet box and sat down, seeing that Lin Yi always had a faint smile on his face, and an indescribable charming charm invisibly emanated, Effie's heart couldn't help but waver, and then he restrained it very forcefully, and half-jokingly: "You seem to be in a good mood today." ”
"I've never been in a bad mood." Of course, Lin Yi knew what was going on, and argued.
Effie laughed, "But it's different now than ever. Full of manly charm. "There is an essential difference between Effie who got off work and Effie who went to work in terms of mental outlook and way of speaking.
She didn't understand, every time she saw Lin Yi, she would be inexplicably happy and quiet in her heart, thinking that maybe it was because Lin Yi treated her last time.
Lin Yi couldn't help but smile at Effie's words: "Don't talk about this, let's order, I also want to taste the taste of raw squid today."
"Okay!"
So, the two of them eat into such a picture, each holding a wriggling squid in his hand, dipping it in various spices, stuffing it into his mouth, and then smiling straight at the other.
