After my parents went back to the room to rest, I looked at her angrily and said angrily, "Okay." "Your plot has all succeeded now!"

Lin Lan glanced at me: "Anyway, it has achieved the effect you want, hasn't it?" ”

Lin Lan's thoughts

My face was gloomy, and I snorted coldly.

"Yo, what's wrong? Still angry? Lin Lan sat beside me, then reached over and kissed me on the left cheek, and said softly, "Okay." Don't be angry, does your wound still hurt? ”

The expression on my face was not softened in the slightest. I sighed and said, "Okay, come over here, I have something to say to you." ”

Actually, I'm not pretending. I do feel a little unhappy. It's not because I'm stingy in this kind of thing, but I think what Lin Lan did today makes me feel very bad. Very bad.

So after thinking about it at night. I decided to talk to her openly and honestly. If I was facing Dandan or Saori, even if I had any thoughts in my heart, I wouldn't bring them up so directly, but would do it implicitly and tactfully.

But for Lin Lan, I think it is the best choice to tell her what she really thinks in her heart directly. Because Lin Lan grew up in the United States, the Chinese set of suggestive and implicit expressions are not suitable for her, and if there is a problem, she will discuss it face-to-face, which is the style that suits Lin Lan.

Lin Lan saw that the expression on my face really didn't look like a joke, so she put away her grinning smile and sat down next to me.

I took a deep breath and said in a stern tone, "Today, today, these practices of yours, to be honest, I don't like it very, very much. "I put the word extraordinary very seriously.

"Why?" Lin Lan said.

"Look." I said softly, "These are my parents, I love them very much, and they love me too." So they're going to be very sad about any hurt that I get hurt, you know? And when they're sad, I'm sad, you know? ”

"Hmm." Lin Lan tilted his head sideways and did not speak.

"So, I don't like you to cheat on their feelings, and I don't like you to deliberately make them sad, you understand?" I sighed and said, "Perhaps, the method you chose today can quickly solve our problem, but haven't you thought that doing so will hurt my parents' hearts?" You can see how uncomfortable and sad it is for them to see how hurt I am, how uncomfortable it is for them to be their child. I feel very guilty and blamed myself for letting my parents be so sad! ”

Seeing that the expression on Lin Lan's face was strange, I continued: "I admit that you are very smart, and this method today is indeed very effective, but, Lan Lan! I took her hands and whispered, "I don't like you to use this scheming on your relatives and lovers, do you know what I mean?" ”

After a pause, I continued: "Frankly, I have a store in my heart that is unhappy, because today's method of yours not only counts my parents, but also counts me. I looked into her eyes and said softly, "But there's one thing you need to know. I don't like how scheming you are with me, I don't like that feeling. I think our communication should always be honest and never deceive and hurt, right? ”

"Okay." Lin Lan sighed: "I understand what you mean." I want to say, dear, I'm sorry. She leaned down and kissed me on the mouth, and then she had an uncomfortable look on her face.

"Yin Ran, you know what? Maybe what I did today made you feel unhappy, maybe I did it wrong, but, dear, I'm sorry, I don't know, I really don't know. I don't know if I'm doing it wrong. I. I don't know. ”

Lin Lan's eyes suddenly turned red, which scared me.

I quickly reached out and put my arms around her waist and whispered, "What's wrong with you?" Sue me, why are you so uncomfortable? ”

Lin Lan smiled reluctantly and said, "Maybe you're right, you shouldn't use your scheming on your relatives and lovers." However, since I was a child, I didn't have any relatives or lovers around me. Since I was a child, I have been accustomed to using my own scheming to calculate others, because I have no relatives around me at all, all of them are some enemies! ”

My heart was darkened.

I understood the meaning of Lin Lan's words.

It is true that I am just an ordinary child, but it is precisely because of my ordinariness that I can enjoy the most common family affection and warmth in the world with my parents since I was a child. But I forgot about it, but these are exactly what Lin Lan has never enjoyed.

She lost her mother when she was very young, and her mother's tragic end made her hate her father since she was a child, and her desire since childhood was to defeat her father with her own hands when she grew up. And her only brother, Guan Qiang, is her opponent. Because Lin Lan had to pretend to please her father, so that she could have a chance to take revenge. And Guan Qiang just didn't like this little girl who was suddenly picked up by Guan Bo since he was a child, thinking that it violated his dominant position in the family.

As a result, Lin Lan has been in an environment of open and secret fighting since she was a child, and she has no relatives, so she is used to using scheming against everyone. Accustomed to calculating everyone around him.

This doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with her, on the contrary, this is exactly Lin Lan's sorrow.

It's really hard to imagine that when we were children, when we were spoiled by our parents, Lin Lan was already full of scheming to please her father and disguise her true hatred. While we were going to school and playing with our friends at the same time, Lin Lan was already studying hard to improve her abilities so that she could have enough ability to defeat her father in the future. When we grew up and had hazy emotions with the opposite sex we liked, Lin Lan had already cultivated a cold heart, and she was full of wariness of everyone. It's hard to imagine that if Lin Lan and I hadn't met, I'm afraid she would have really turned into a ruthless person by any means.

It's like Tory Wallace.

Thinking of this, my heart suddenly jumped, and I held Lin Lan's hand subconsciously tightened.

"Lan Lan." I tried my best to make my voice softer, stared into Lin Lan's eyes, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken to you like this tonight." ”

Lin Lan shook her head: "No, I know that it is indeed wrong to do this, I should not take advantage of the feelings of my relatives and lovers." I'm sorry, I really don't know, I definitely won't be like this again in the future. ”

I put my arms around her waist and kept her body as close to me as possible, and I whispered in her ear, "It's me who needs to apologize, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that about you just now, I forgot about you, your childhood, and what happened later." Maybe I should put it mildly, I'm sorry, dear. ”

"That." Lin Lan suddenly raised her face and said extremely seriously; "Then tomorrow morning, tell your parents the truth about the matter, okay? Sue them I shouldn't deceive their sympathy, I shouldn't take advantage of their feelings. ”

"Ugh." I smiled wryly, "I still don't want to." I pointed to my leg: "Look, I've been injured because of this anyway, do you want me to suffer today's pain in vain?" Forget it this time, we won't do it again in the future. ”

Lin Lan grinned and didn't say anything.

I put my arms around her waist and lay side by side with her on the bed. This is my own room when I lived at home, so this bed is also the single bed I used back then, the two of us were squeezed into the bed like this, I gently hugged Lin Lan in my arms, and I felt extremely calm and happy in my heart.

After tonight's conversation, our relationship was clearly a little closer.

I was suddenly very grateful to God for allowing me to meet Lin Lan, otherwise, when I imagined that Lin Lan would become a cold-blooded and terrifying guy like Tory Wallace, I couldn't help but be afraid in my heart.

Lin Lan was curled up in my arms, her body was very light, like a tanuki, and she didn't touch my injuries at all.

Suddenly, she raised her face, saw my thoughtful expression, and whispered, "What's wrong with you?" What are you thinking? ”

I lowered my face to look into her eyes, couldn't help but lower my head and kissed her in the eye, and then said in a very serious tone, "I was thinking about such a thing, that is. I love you, Lanlan. ”

The next day, I insisted on leaving home with Lin Lan, and then returned to Jingbian with Lin Lan.

The biggest purpose of the trip to Shanghai was not achieved. I lost contact with Pierre, and I was depressed.

After returning to Jingbian, I contacted Li Zhengtang and asked him to continue investigating Pierre's whereabouts.

On the other hand, I asked Lin Lan to go through her relationship in K and investigate Pierre's family situation. After all, Pierre has been working in K for three years, and the company should have his details.

It turned out to be nothing!

Odd does not have any information about Pierre. Because Pierre was brought into the Odd company at that time, the procedures were simple. As a result, these things have made me suffer now.

As for Company K, although I got some information, I went to Pierre's home in the United States and found his phone number, but unfortunately, that address and phone number have also been invalidated. Because Pierre, since his allegiance to me, left the United States with me, and then traveled to France and China, and the American past has long been gone.

I've only heard that he has family in France, but I don't know the specifics. Westerners and Easterners are completely different, even if you are a close colleague of theirs, they rarely mention their family or something in front of you, because they think it is a personal secret.
