The last hesitation in my heart melted his tenderness, smiled and stretched out his hand, he put the ring on the middle finger of my left hand, solemnly kissed my lips and said, "This means that we have established a relationship, and we are not allowed to frown at other men in the future." โ
"I still feel like I'm dreaming." I smiled and held the ring up to my eyes. It reflects the sunlight, the fire is dazzling, and it is too beautiful to look at.
"Believe me, dreams will come true one day." He solemnly raised his hand and kissed it at the ring.
I looked into sincere eyes, nodded, and made up my mind to fight again.
I rushed back to the office and didn't miss the afternoon meeting. Although it's a bit strange to tie a silk scarf around my neck this month, there are a lot of people pretending to be forced in this place in the imperial capital, and no one cares about my strange outfit.
The air conditioning in the conference room was turned on very large, and the temperature was just right with a silk scarf. He Xiao walked around the conference room, glanced at me, looked into me, and then quickly turned his gaze away.
The middle managers who came to the meeting felt a little strange, the chairman had never come to Hanhua Futures so often, and they were all speculating whether there was any major change in the company's top management. Before He Xiao came in, someone was whispering something, and after He Xiao came in, he immediately quieted down.
I'm a newcomer, and I'm an airborne soldier, and I have no roots in the company, and I sit here for meetings and decorations, and no one takes the initiative to greet me. Only Luo Xiangyun from the personnel department smiled at me and nodded.
He Zelin still entered the conference room in a gray suit, and the expression on his face stiffened when he saw me, and he quickly recovered and started the formal meeting. Today's meeting is really important, and next month there is a world-class financial industry summit in Shanghai, and the company has an invitation letter from the organizer and needs two or three employees to come and attend.
After the meeting, when I was packing up my things and preparing to leave, I heard He Dong say, "The others will disperse first, and Xiaolin will stay." โ
I had to sit down again, and the people in the room looked at me strangely, and then left as if nothing had happened.
When only I and He Dong were left in the conference room, he looked at me and asked directly, "Are you with Lian Cheng?" โ
"Nope." I didn't expect him to be so direct, his tone was slightly stunned, and he immediately denied it.
"Your clothes?" He asked.
"I ...... Mom's. "I didn't want him to see the clue in his clothes, so I immediately thought of a reason and said it, whether it was reasonable or not. Anyway, my mother's age is about the same as He Liancheng's mother, even if he recognizes what year it is, it can't be the only one.
He Zelin shook his head and smiled, and said, "Oh, it's me who is too nervous about your relationship. What kind of conditions did you think about? โ
"Dong He, I'm sorry, I haven't thought about it yet." I'm sorry.
He was noncommittal and said to me, "Work hard and give me an answer by Friday at the latest." With that, he turned and walked away, leaving me to look at my own shadow on the glass in a daze.
This dress is indeed a bit eye-catching, who would wear a white silk dress to work in a working woman? But it's useless to regret it. I went back to the office and sent a text message to He Liancheng saying that your father was suspicious of the clothes on my body.
After about ten minutes, he called back and said, "You won't admit it, I'll hang up my clothes tomorrow." โ
I talked about He Zelin asking me to choose one of the two, and he said there: "I agree with his first plan, don't you just want me to go to work, I will choose Hanhua Futures." Put you in a bunch of men, and I'm not at ease either. He finished laughing.
"It's really me who is not at ease, you are young and golden, and you are handsome, I don't know how many women are staring at." I couldn't help but laugh when I heard him say it easily.
"How is that possible...... I can't stand up to anyone at all......" he said halfway through and suddenly silenced.
I burst out laughing: "Okay, okay, don't make up such a reason that a fool doesn't believe it, I'm hanging." I said I was going to hang up the phone, and he called over there and said, "If you don't believe it, come and touch it, I feel it when I talk to you on the phone." โ
"You're serious." I didn't wait for him to react after I finished speaking, and hung up the phone.
After I hung up, I felt that I was a little abnormal today. There is always a smile on the corner of his mouth when he talks to him, and even the voice and tone are different from usual, like ...... It's like a little girl who is in love for the first time.
I went to the bathroom and patted my forehead with cold water to make my head clear, and then turned around and went out, just in front of He Xiao who came out of the men's bathroom next door.
He looked at me worriedly and asked, "Are you getting better with your cold?" โ
"Oh, it's so much better." I'm ashamed of my crappy reason.
"Drink plenty of hot water and go to bed early at night. I want you to come with me about that financial summit. He Xiao said.
"Mr. He, I'm not familiar with the business when I first came, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right?" I excused myself.
Talking about official business at the door of the bathroom, I can't look at it directly.
He glanced at my neck and said nonchalantly, "Your silk scarf is open." โ
I hurriedly went to tidy up, and when I looked back, I saw that the silk scarf in the mirror was half spread out, and a few strawberry marks on my neck were particularly eye-catching. My face turned red, and he pretended to be innocent and asked, "Leyi, are you allergic?" โ
"Ah...... Eat too much seafood. I blushed and hid it.
"Pay more attention in the future, not everything can be eaten casually." After speaking, he took two steps forward and said, "Wait a minute, I will send you the meeting schedule, and you can also prepare the materials." โ
"Okay." I didn't have time to excuse myself from the meeting, so I immediately agreed to come down and run back to the office.
Damn, this He Xiao is definitely deliberate, maybe He Liancheng really heard the laughter. Thinking that he could guess that I was late for work because of the man with me, I felt that I had no face to drill into the cracks in the ground.
After finishing my work in the afternoon, I talked to my lawyer on the phone, once again perfected the materials for the second appeal, and asked him how he was preparing for other aspects. The lawyer said to me very clearly: "Miss Lin, I understand your feelings, but the chances of success in the second trial are not very high. You are obviously the party most likely to get custody, and the first instance judgment is like this. Everyone knows what is going on, are you sure you still have to appeal? โ
"Sure." I don't have to hesitate to answer directly.
"I see that you have a lot of connections, so let's find a connection. I will submit the materials for the second appeal tomorrow as you requested. The lawyer paused here and added, "If it doesn't matter, the second appeal will be in vain." โ
"Thank you." I hung up and pinched my eyebrows.
I can't ask He Liancheng for this matter, if he had a way, he would have said it a long time ago, and he wouldn't have made me anxious. But who else can I ask unconditionally?
Thinking of this, my eyes suddenly lit up, and I thought of Liu Tian. He was able to get two places in Beihai Kindergarten during the non-enrollment season, and there should be some way.
After much hesitation, I called him, and he heard my voice full of surprise and said, "Leyi." โ
I suddenly didn't know how to speak, every time I asked him for a problem that I couldn't solve, and he promised to help every time, am I a little too snobbish.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"I lost the first trial, and I'm going to appeal again, so I ask you......" I'm really a little entangled and don't know how to say it.
He heard the hesitation in my voice and immediately interrupted me and said, "Your case is very simple, all judges will award custody of the child to you according to the normal process." โ
"But this time I did lose the case." I said.
"I can't necessarily help, try your best." Liu Tian wanted to speak and stopped, but finally responded.
"Thanks, sorry for your trouble again." I hurriedly thanked him, whether it was successful or not, he didn't reject me now, and I want to be grateful.
"Hey...... You" Just as I was about to hang up, he suddenly plucked up the courage to say, "You still owe me a meal." โ
"Oh, I remember, I just wanted to ask you if you have time these days." I said right away. This sentence is disgustingly hypocritical, and I have forgotten that I promised to invite him to dinner.
"I'll have time tonight." He replied hurriedly.
I hesitated for a moment and said, "I know that there is a very good restaurant, near Zhengyi Road, called Green Tea Fairy Tale, can you go to the restaurant and wait for me, I'll go over after work." โ
"I'll pick you up, it's inconvenient for you to come alone." He quickly finished and hung up the phone. I felt like he hung up the phone as quickly as a wolf was chasing him from behind.
I have just confirmed the relationship with He Liancheng now, thought about it for a while, and after hanging up Liu Tian's phone, I quickly sent him a message, saying that I would have dinner with Liu Tian in the evening, in order to thank Liu Tian for helping the child find the kindergarten.
The message was successfully sent, and He Liancheng's phone chased the tail of the text message in, and I reluctantly answered and said: "Please, I have already reported it, and I didn't make any claims privately." โ
"Why didn't you report it first when you promised him to go?" He asked.
"How can I ask for advice on everything like this, I'm really just going to have a meal." I had no choice but to stroke my forehead, and it was a bit troublesome to meet such a boyfriend who cared about me so much. After all, I'm used to living a life, and I don't have a procedure to consult with others about anything. If it weren't for the fear that he would be angry, I wouldn't have even made this call.
"I'll go with you." He was not reconciled.
"That's not good, you two don't like each other. Besides, he just let me go, and I suddenly brought a man to provoke me. What's more, he is still a customer of the company, so I can give him some face. I patiently explained to He Liancheng.
"Then you have to compensate me." His tone loosened a little.
"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night, okay." I'm full of answers.
"Hmm." He Liancheng finally gave in, and added at the end, "Go with a ring, don't take it off." โ
He hung up the phone satisfied, and after the phone was hung up, I remembered to tell him, "Don't follow me." โ
